"Is this matter true? Is it really as stated in the letter? This king and the Pope need to hear the most truthful answer, not just the one-sided account in the letter. Whether this matter is true or not cannot be inferred at this time."
The soldier quickly replied, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely true. These two divine messengers do look completely different from us, and they claim to be from the Eastern Continent."
"All of this matches the description of the Heavenly Messengers in the scriptures. They must be the Heavenly Messengers from the Far East."
"Many common people and nobles witnessed the scene. The two divine messengers seemed to be flying, circling above the rooftops with extraordinary grace."
"What surprised us even more was that they somehow managed to create a huge crack in the marble with just a slight chop from a distance."
After hearing these words, Queen Juliana and the Pope fell into deep thought. According to what they said, there should be nothing false about the messenger of God, it must be true.
But it is unclear why this messenger of the gods came to their Holy Empire. There is no record of this in the scriptures. All we know is that the arrival of the messenger of the gods will bring hope to the Holy Empire.
At this time, Queen Juliana and Pope Felicius both had their own ulterior motives. The queen thought that if she could recruit the messenger of God, it might be beneficial to her.
For the Pope, if he could get the messenger of God to come and become his own man or stand on his side, then his rights as the Pope would be recognized and he would get support from more people.
Perhaps he could truly surpass the Queen and secure his position in the Holy Empire.
"Since the messenger from the gods has arrived, our Holy Empire must welcome him. We can't let him down."
"Messenger of the gods, you are here today. My Holy Empire must bring them to the capital."
"How about this? I will send my personal soldiers to go with you to bring back the two messengers from the gods."
"Also, although the city-state of Amman is located in a remote area, it is also very important and a city lord is indispensable. So, let Bahwen take over as the city lord temporarily."
“I believe he can do this.”
"This..." The soldier hesitated for a moment. He couldn't say anything, but it was indeed an incredible thing that the queen's personal soldiers followed him to welcome the two messengers from the gods.
But at this moment, the Pope disagreed. Pope Filixiu said angrily, "Your Majesty, your personal guards hold a pivotal position in our Holy Empire and are responsible for protecting the Queen's life."
"Once the guards leave, it will have a certain impact on the Queen. I think it's better for us to let the Vatican's Royal Guards go to welcome the messenger of God. Besides, this is the responsibility of our Vatican."
"We, the Holy See, are quite experienced in this area. Furthermore, Your Majesty, it is recorded in the Bible. It would be most appropriate for us to be the messengers of the gods, wouldn't it?"
Listening to his words, how could Queen Juliana not understand what the Pope was thinking? She was probably thinking the same thing as herself, and simply wanted to use the messenger of God to achieve her own goals. How could she agree so easily?
"The Pope is very busy and has to deal with and stop so many things every day. Besides, the departure of my personal guards will not have any impact on me. It's not like everyone is leaving."
"That's still not possible. This is the responsibility of our Holy See. It's perfectly normal for us to go. I hope Your Majesty will agree."
Felicius frowned, his tone was a little cold, and he looked very serious. At this moment, he was forcing the queen. If the queen did not agree to his request, then... things would become very bad.
Queen Juliana looked at him helplessly. Since the Pope didn't agree to her request, what else could the queen do? Even if he agreed, the Pope might just force his people over and take the messenger away in advance.
Forget it, let’s see what the situation is with this messenger of God. We’ll talk about it after we arrive in Athens.
"Okay... Since the Pope thinks the Royal Guards should go, then let them go and welcome the messenger from the gods. It's nothing."
"Alright, I'm tired..."
…
After the Pope left, Juliana gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. She was so angry that she almost roared.
"pope!"
"Felicius! Are you planning to suppress my royal authority? Are you planning to do whatever you want and replace me, the queen?"
The Queen was not worried about the threat to her royal power, but was worried that the Pope's power would grow stronger and stronger and eventually override the entire Holy Empire, which was entirely controlled by the Holy See.
This is a very terrifying thing. If it starts, then their royal rights will be lost.
Even the queen could be dismissed at will. This is what happened after the Pope's power grew.
"well……"
"Why did a messenger from the gods come at this time?"
"What exactly is this messenger from the gods doing? What's their purpose in coming to our Holy Empire? Isn't this purely for the Pope? If Filixiu gets this messenger from the gods, more believers will be willing to believe."
"After all, the power of the Vatican originally comes from faith, and nowadays many believers and even many ordinary people do not particularly agree with the Vatican's scriptures."
"But once the story of the divine messenger is confirmed, more people will be willing to believe in the Pope's power, and the power will be infinitely magnified, gaining more recognition."
“…”
Just as the queen was talking to herself, her maid came over cautiously and said.
"Your Majesty, we don't need to be too anxious about this matter. We are still unclear about what is going on. Moreover, these messengers from the gods are a man and a woman."
"They don't necessarily obey the orders of the Holy See or stand on the side of the Pope.
When the people arrive, we can take a good look at the situation. We can also find a way to win over some nobles so that we can resist the Pope."
Zhu Lina smiled softly and shook her head helplessly, "How can it be that simple? The Pope will definitely try his best to make this messenger of God stand on his side. The best way at the moment is to remain neutral!"
“Damn it!”
