Chapter 197：

Back in time to a few days ago...

In the cathedral in the center of Niceborg, Bishop Elvis led a prayer that had just concluded.

After the bishop delivered a routine speech, the priests dispersed.

Bishop Elvis, who had been calm and breezy just now, changed into a dignified expression.

He came to the cafeteria, ready to have dinner.

In fact, with his status, he could order the kitchen to prepare meals for himself alone.

But except for special periods such as illness, Elvis has always insisted on eating big pot meals with ordinary priests in the big cafeteria, which is also an important reason why he is so popular.

He sat where he had always been, and the servants of the church set the tray in front of him.

Elvis picked up a boiled egg and knocked on the table without stopping.

A priest next to him was very strange. His Excellency's egg was almost cracked, but he didn't realize it, as if he was thinking about something.

"Master Elvis? Master Elvis?"

The priest jerked Elvis' arm gently, and that brought him back to life.

"Oh…"

Only then did Elvis realize that the eggs in his hands were about to shatter.

"Lord, forgive me."

The bishop repented for his waste of food. He carefully peeled off the broken egg shells bit by bit, and ate the boiled eggs in small bites.

The priest at the side admired him very much. The bishop is really strict with himself.

Another priest came in a hurry, he came to Elvis's side and whispered, "Lord Anthony is back."

"I see. Take a breakfast to his room and let him wait for me there."

"Yes, my lord bishop."

Elvis accelerated the speed of eating, and wiped out everything in front of him in a short while.

After thanking the Lord of Light for giving him another sumptuous dinner, he got up and walked towards Anthony's room.

Anthony had just finished his own dinner and received him in the room.

Elvis said with guilt on his face, "Master Anthony, I accidentally let go of a witch, and I really have the duty of a bishop."

Anthony was very puzzled: "What happened? Tell me slowly."

Elvis looked embarrassed, as if he didn't know how to speak.

After a long time, he said slowly: "When we were transferring the witch last night, something happened."

"Last night? Did you meet a wolf?"

Anthony was referring to the unusual howling of wolves at night. It is estimated that there are many wolves on the roads outside the city. There is a high probability that the team escorting Lady Fanny will encounter wolves.

"Yes, after a whole night we didn't receive a report from the **** team. I sent a team to that church to find out at dawn."

"But on the road, a large number of wolves were found, as well as... the bones of the people we sent out yesterday, all of them..."

"May their souls go to heaven. That witch also..."

"She escaped! No bones of her were found at the scene! It seems that the **** team was attacked by wolves, and the witch took advantage of the chaos to escape, but I don't think it's that simple!"

Elvis shook his head and said, "It must be that witch! Some witch must have used xiéè's magic to summon nearby wolves to attack our **** team."

The more the bishop spoke, the more he gritted his teeth. He now believes that the movement of the wolves last night was caused by the witch Fanny.

"Otherwise, this xiéè witch has absolutely no reason to survive alone."

Anthony said with a bit of regret: "So, we can't make a deal with the Principality of Eaton?"

Elvis was a little dejected, "Yeah! What a shame, are we just going to watch an anti-church alliance form?"

Anthony comforted him: "Don't blame yourself too much, Lord Bishop. Even if the Principality of Eaton obeys us, their strength is limited."

"I know this. In fact, my unwillingness is mainly because I let that witch go."

While the two were talking, a voice came from outside the door: "Is Lord Elvis here? I have something important to report."

"Lord Anthony, I'll come as soon as I go."

Elvis got up and went outside the room, and he came back after a while.

It's just that there is a look of shock and anger on his face now.

"My lord Anthony, I just received a report. The Eaton embassy announced that they had found Lady Fanny—that damned witch really ran back! The news they made public was that they intercepted the bandits bǎngjià Lady Fanny outside the guard city of Eaton." Gang!"

Anthony was thoughtful: "It seems that what happened last night was not simple."

Elvis turned around anxiously: "This must be related. The bandit gang that Eaton claimed may refer to our **** team—it is very likely that Eaton's guards were also on that road last night."

"Ahh! I should have guessed it long ago. The Etonians must know that their Countess is a witch, and they must have known about our plan through some means. They attacked our **** together with the wolf summoned by the witch. team!"

Elvis began to make up his mind. UU Reading www. uukanshu.com

Anthony asked him, "My lord, what shall we do now?"

Elvis raised his voice: "What else can I do? Of course, tell the story about that witch and let the whole world know the truth. Let the people know that the Eaton royal family is sheltering a filthy and filthy witch."

Anthony shook his head, "Master Bishop, I advise you to calm down. When Lady Fanny is in our hands, we can disclose the evidence that she is a witch at any time, but she is not in our hands now. We unilaterally Claiming she's a witch—would cause trouble. Especially, at a time when relations between the Church and the Horn Kingdoms are so tense."

Elvis snorted, "The rulers of the gang! So what, the people are on our side."

"Oh, the position of the common people is the most unreliable. Today they sing the glory of God, and tomorrow they will shout long live the king!"

Elvis stopped talking, he looked at the flame on the candle, and seemed to be thinking about what he should do next.

"Master Bishop, instead of breaking with the Principality of Eaton immediately, it is better to do another thing first. I think this thing is more important."

"Is there anything more important than eliminating the wizards in Xiéè?"

Anthony showed a solemn expression, and spit out a word: "Destroy the ghost!"

"The ghost?"

"Yes, as you said just now, the Principality of Eaton probably learned of our plan through some means."

Elvis stood up hoarsely.

"If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten!"

There was a cold look in his eyes.

"There must be fallen people in the cathedral who have abandoned the teachings of God and thrown themselves into darkness!"
