Chapter 142 Lurker (Subscribe!)
Sure enough, before Snessa Hani could even speak out to defend himself, Cardinal Camus Blanchard seized the opportunity and said, "Remove Snessa Hani's episcopal authority and hand him over to the Inquisition!"
After hearing the cardinal's punishment, Snisa Hani's face turned pale. As expected...
"Your Excellency the Cardinal..." Sneisa Hani begged humbly to Blanchard.
It would be fine if Mike denied the facts he said, but... Mike admitted them all at once and gave a barely reasonable explanation for each point, which made it almost impossible for Sneisa Hani to refute.
Therefore, he had no way to use the points he had mentioned to fight back against the Idar people.
Even though Snisa Hani knew clearly that the Idar Territory was not as simple as these Idar people said, but after being labeled as Theo Green, no matter what he said, it would probably be in vain...
Thinking of the Idar Territory, which was not only thriving but also lacked a single church, Snisa Hani felt helpless, because the Cardinal would not believe him...
Camus Blanchard waved his hand to the side as if he was shooing away a fly, and two strong Crusader soldiers came from one side of the hall and carried Snessa Hani out from the left and right.
"Lord Blanchard, Lord Idar is definitely not what he said..." At this moment, Mike was still kneeling on the ground, crying bitterly.
The cardinal stood up and helped the newly ordained priest to his feet. He said, "Of course. You Idar people have already demonstrated your sincere faith in the God of Light with your actual actions."
"Sneisa Hani's false accusations against the Idar people have tarnished his own faith and betrayed the Vatican's trust in him. Now that he has been taken to the Inquisition and you are about to become a member of the Inquisition, why not... let you handle it." The cardinal looked into Mike's eyes and said seriously.
"How can this be? This is absolutely not possible!" Mike's reaction was extremely intense. He even stood up without any courtesy and argued with the cardinal.
This also surprised the cardinal.
"Although Snisa Hani's accusations against Lord Idar were completely false, everything he saw was true! So... this was all just a misunderstanding!"
"If Snessa Hani is taken to the Inquisition and punished because he has doubts about the situation in Idar County, who will dare to express opinions that differ from the Holy See in the future? So, although Snessa Hani's actions are a bit extreme, everything he did... was for the Holy See!"
"Therefore, although Snisa Hani made mistakes, he also made contributions! He is wholeheartedly devoted to the Holy See!" Mike said sincerely.
"Don't you feel wronged at all?" Blanchard asked.
"Of course there will be grievances, but... compared with the overall situation of the Holy See of Light, what does it matter?" Mike said firmly.
Listening to Mike's words, the cardinal couldn't help but feel a little...emotional...
Who is the most sincere believer? Michael is one of them! Even though he was accused by others, he still thought about the problem from the perspective of the Holy See and pleaded for the person who accused and wronged him. What a precious virtue this is!
"You go down first..." Seeing Mike's firm attitude, the cardinal asked Mike to retreat.
Originally, although Mike explained everything about Idar Territory, Blanchard still felt it was a bit far-fetched. Could it be that in this era, there would really be nobles willing to spend all their wealth to work for the church? However, after hearing Mike's words of pleading for Sneisa Hani, the cardinal suddenly realized!
yes!
The Count of Idar had taught countless devout believers like Mike! Since Mike could have such an awareness, what the Count of Idar did was naturally quite reasonable.
It is the right thing to do to award the Order of St. George to Count Idar! ...
When Mike walked out of the Lateran Palace calmly, his back was already soaked with cold sweat. Just now... it was a close call!
Fortunately, the Earl realized the mistake that happened in Idar County some time ago, and told me the information about the bishop named Snessa Hani and many instructions in the form of a secret letter.
Otherwise... maybe the Idar Territory will be exposed!
As for pleading for Sneisa Hani, it was just Mike's attempt to pass on the blame. Anyway, once Sneisa Hani was accused of being a member of Theo Green's gang, he would be skinned alive even if he didn't die.
If he were to judge Snisa Hani, the cardinal would certainly be dissatisfied if the punishment was too light; but if the punishment was too heavy, wouldn't it leave a stain on his pure and sincere identity as a believer? As Bruno's most capable assistant, Michael was almost walking on thin ice in the holy city of Bethlehem. He was always careful and cautious, keeping in mind his fanatical believer and his personality of being ready to sacrifice his life for the Vatican. How could he fall on this?
As Mike walked towards the construction site outside the city, a lot of thoughts were in his mind.
It has been such a long time since I came to the Holy City. I finally managed to squeeze into the Church and became a priest. Damn it for not getting married and having children. When I return to Idar County, I will definitely find a wife to give birth to 70 or 80 children! But... the task assigned by the Earl has not made any progress yet!
Because in Bruno's impression, whenever there is a church in the world after traveling through time, the church is often the unquestionable villain boss.
Therefore, Bruno's primary purpose in sending Mike to the church was to find out what role the church played in this world! However... at least so far, within Mike's field of vision, except for a small number of religious fanatics, most of the rest were guys who took advantage of the opportunity to make money under the guise of religion...
It seems that the task that the Earl has given me can only be observed after I enter the Inquisition...
"Your Majesty Bishop!"
As Mike walked, he never forgot to greet the bishops he met, and his right hand was always ready to make a cross on his chest, almost more devout than the most devout believers...
besides……
