Chapter 853

"You are very similar to Sofia, the consul of Fengyue. I think... You should like that place. If you like, I can write a letter of recommendation, I think... The whole fengyueling will welcome you to join us. "

Kaileici eyes sincerely said.

But after listening to him, Frank pondered for a moment, but slowly shook his head

"Thank you for your kindness, Mr. kellets. Although I often hear about the story of Fengyue collar from the minstrels, and I admire Ms. Sophia, who established the free collar, I don't want to join in."

"Why?"

Karez showed some surprise.

Frank thought about it and said:

"To join Fengyue free collar, you have to join the Church of life, and many of me and my companions are devout eternal believers."

"Although the eternal church is decadent, the church is the church and the gods are the gods. In my opinion... The mistakes of the church can not be attributed to the gods."

"I admire the Church of life and respect the coronation of the goddess of life, but... I'm really sorry."

Frank said apologetically.

Karez gave him a deep look and shook his head gently

"Mr. Frank, faith is not your real reason. You know who I am, then... You should also know that I can see the light of faith in everyone."

With that, Karez sighed and looked Frank in the eyes

"Mr. Frank, how long have you not been to the Church of eternity?"

Frank shivered a little and couldn't help lowering his head.

A moment later, he sighed and said with a bitter smile:

"I'm really sorry to be crowned by Karez... I don't want to join any forces at the moment."

"I see."

Karez nodded gently.

Then he said with a smile:

"If one day you change your mind, or say... You want to join the Church of life, we will always welcome you."

Frank was silent for a moment and nodded

"Thank you."

"But what are you going to do next? The imperial nobles have removed your name. After the end of the war, what are you going to do with your mercenary regiment

Asked Karez.

He looked at the young knight with deep eyes and said:

"I can feel that you didn't just create a mercenary regiment to make a living. You led your team to punish good and evil, eliminate demons, have strict discipline and fight bravely. This is not what an ordinary mercenary regiment should look like."

"What on earth do you want to do?"

After listening to Karez, Frank fell silent again.

A moment later, he opened his mouth to answer, but the spirit demigod stopped him

"You don't have to tell me your reasons. I think... You should have your thoughts and difficulties as well."

"These days, I have been observing you. You are a real chivalrous knight. I believe in your choice."

"But one thing I want to remind you is that it's not just the eternal church that has fallen. If you really place some hopes on the gods, maybe you will be disappointed."

"Of course, I don't mean the crown of the great goddess of life..."

"Mr. Frank, the door of the Church of life is always open to you. If one day you really make a decision, we are happy to be your loyal ally again."

……

Frank didn't talk to Karez for long.

After declining the invitation to join the Church of life, he left soon.

As soon as he went out, he met his own bodyguard, Roland.

"Lord frank!"

Roland saluted him with some joy.

Frank raised his eyebrows

"Roland, what are you doing here?"

"Hey hey, just won a card, I wanted to pick you up. I didn't expect that you would end so soon."

Said Roland, scratching her head.

With that, he lit a kettle in his hand and said excitedly:

"Look! What did I win? "

There was a movement in Frank's heart.

He took a look at the elf style kettle, then took it and smelled it. He was a little surprised

"Spirit tea?"

"Ha ha! you 're right! Is the legendary spirit tea! It's said that it's on the side of the imperial capital, but only those rich aristocrats can drink it! "

Said Roland excitedly.

With that, he suddenly noticed a cloud between Frank's eyebrows, realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly covered his mouth

"Ah... I'm sorry... Lord frank, I shouldn't have mentioned aristocracy..."

Frank was deprived of aristocracy.

Although he always said that he had abandoned his noble status, it was another thing to abandon and deprive him.

It was almost a disgrace to the imperial aristocracy.

On weekdays, he never dared to talk about aristocracy face to face, for fear of touching each other's sad things, but today, because he was too excited, he forgot about it.

But Frank shook his head and said helplessly:

"No, Roland, I've said that many times. I don't care about the nobility."

"Then why do you... Look unhappy?"

Roland asked curiously.

Frank was stunned.

"Do I... Look unhappy?"

He touched his cheek.

"Of course, it's a lost look."

Roland nodded.

Frank was stunned.

A moment later, he said with a bitter smile:

"Maybe... I'm a little confused myself..."

"Confused? Mr. Frank, you said that along the way, you have already thought about how to go in the future? Don't you mean to lead us to punish evil and promote good, and save the world from fire and water? "

Asked Roland suspiciously.

Frank sighed

"Roland, I've just been invited to join the maple moon free collar by Karez."

"Well... Ah?"

Roland's eyes rounded.

At the next moment, he became excited

"Really... Really?"

"But I declined."

Frank said the second half of the sentence.

"Um... Ah?"

Roland's excitement froze in her face.

"You... Why do you decline? That's maple moon free collar! Along the way, don't you always say that you yearn for it? "

"And... Even if we join Fengyue freecollar, we can still be active in the mainland as mercenaries! It's not a conflict! "

"Not to mention, if you can really become a member of Fengyue free collar, you can have a home..."

Roland said with some regret.

Looking at his great joy and sorrow, Frank was slightly stunned

"But I remember you said that your family has always been a devout and eternal believer?"

"Never mind! Lord frank, if you can join Fengyue free collar, I'd like to change the letter immediately! You can see how depraved the eternal church is along the way

Said Roland bitterly.

Frank was silent.

"But... Although Fengyue freecollar is good, Frank is our follower. No matter what decision you make, we will support you."

Seems to have seen Frank's hesitation, Roland said quickly.

Then he hesitated for a moment and asked curiously:

"But... I'm still curious. Why did you decline the invitation from kellets?"

Frank sighed after listening to the guard's words

"Roland, how many changes do you think... To be a knight who punishes evil and praises good can bring to this decadent era?"

Then, without waiting for an answer, he shook his head and sighed

"It's not enough... It's not enough... I've seen too much along the way. The Empire has decayed and decayed from the root. The nobility has fallen and the church is incompetent. Coupled with the impact of magic recovery, this country has become extremely ill..."

Frank said, looking at Roland with an air of awe

"Roland, this is the first time that I tell you from my heart. I came to the southern border region and founded the mercenary regiment. The purpose is not just to be a chivalrous knight."

"I want to overthrow this decadent country..."

"Push... To overthrow the Empire?"

Roland's eyes rounded in an instant.

"Yes, you're right. I appreciate Fengyue's free collar very much. I also appreciate what life church does."

"Over the past few months, I have been observing, thinking and comparing all the way, and gradually realized that perhaps Fengyue's free collar mode is the future."

Frank said in a deep voice.

Roland looked at him with shock. As a knight with noble background, he had never thought of overthrowing the Empire.

"But... But... If it's true... No, shouldn't it be better to join Fengyue free collar?"

Roland stammered.

Frank understood what he meant.

Since we want to overthrow the Empire, join Fengyue freecollar and get more support, everything will go well.

However, Frank declined the invitation of the elves.

Instead of giving a direct explanation, he asked:

"Roland, what do you think of the situation on the mainland?"

"Well... Lord frank, I'm just a knight. I used to be an aristocrat, but you know, I hate those courses since I was a child. I don't know much about politics."

Roland said sheepishly.

Frank laughed. He shook his head slightly. His face became more and more serious

"Roland, if I join Fengyue freecollar and want to overthrow the Empire again, I'm afraid it will cause a strong reaction from the eternal church, and even lead to divine war..."

With these words, Roland's eyes widened again

"You... What did you say?"

Frank sighed

"It's about a thousand years ago... Roland, do you know the war of empire building?"

"Well... I've heard some legends. Our family has a relatively short history and there are not many records about it."

Said Roland.

Frank nodded

"The Empire was founded on the basis of destroying the spirit Kingdom, and the essence of the war of empire building is actually the battle between gods."

"And the fighting gods, not others, are the Eternal Lord and the world tree."

"The world tree? Then... Isn't that... "

Roland's eyes widened again.

"Yes, it's Eve, the goddess of life."

Frank sighed.

Then he sighed

"There is a contradiction between the crown of the goddess of life and the Lord of eternity."

"I want to change the status quo of the Empire, want to overthrow the present rule, if only as an eternal believer, it's just a civil war in the human world."

"But if I join Fengyue freecollar as a believer in life, it will be a battle of faith..."

"Roland, in that case, the intensity of the war will be completely different."

"I hope to save, not destroy. The consequences of the fight between the true gods are absolutely devastating... Especially under the crown of the goddess of life and the Lord of eternity are the strongest among the gods."

At Frank's words, Roland opened her mouth, speechless for a moment.

A moment later, he couldn't help saying:

"But I think... You seem to prefer the life church, and you are more devoted to the teachings of the life church. I've seen you watch the canon of life in the evening under the lamp with relish. Maybe you don't realize that, unlike the Lord of eternity, every time you mention the coronation of the goddess of life, you are honorific."

"In this case, why can't we build a country with the faith of the Church of life? It's like the maple moon free collar. "

"The eternal church is so decadent, even if you rebuild the country, can it really change everything?"

"Not to mention that the eternal Church based on aristocracy really allows you to overthrow the Empire?"

Roland's words made Frank fall into silence.

A moment later, he sighed:

"This is exactly what I want to say. The foundation of empire is not only aristocracy, but also eternal church."

"If you want to overthrow the Empire, you must also get the support of the eternal Church..."

"It's politics, and politics can't take personal feelings into consideration."

"Roland, although I don't like the eternal church very much, although the eternal church has been rotten, there are still some life saints who still keep their heart."

"I know this one, who is a real saint, respected by the world, even by the Pope."

"He lives in seclusion in a village near the southern mountains. When the devil is eliminated, I plan to visit each other and get their support."

"Roland, I'm also happy to build a country that believes in the Church of life, but sometimes ideals and reality are different."

"Although the eternal church is disappointing, it is not that there is no possibility of salvation at all..."

Frank had a good time speaking his mind.

But Roland frowned and shook her head

"But Lord frank, are you sure that the saints of the eternal church will support you?"

"Not to mention, even if you decide to choose the eternal church you don't like because you are worried about the war between the life church and the eternal church, can you really be sure that the war between the two churches will not break out?"

"No, the Church of life advocates peace and will not fight others for no reason."

Frank shook his head.

"What if the eternal church fought first?"

Roland asked again.

Frank was stunned.

He said with a bitter smile

"In that case, I'm afraid the eternal church is really hopeless..."
