Chapter 214: Gathering Strength
I don’t know how long it has been, but the door to the communication room opened, and Celica stepped out.
"Little one, I have spoken with your father," Celica began, "I need to handle some messy business here first and then take her to the Pande Empire for inspection. During this time, she cannot communicate with outsiders and must stay at the church. Are you going back to school or…?"
"Of course, I will stay with Neymar," Karoso said firmly.
"Well, she has a good brother." Celica smiled and patted Karoso’s head, "I might need about a month. Are you not afraid it will delay your studies?"
"My teacher will come here to teach me, so don’t worry." Karoso replied, "My sister’s studies cannot fall behind. I will ask the church to provide enough magic books for her to learn."
"Hmm…" Celica frowned slightly.
Magic books are very precious items.
The reason wizards are valuable is that many magic books are scattered among different groups, and each group’s magic books are different and do not circulate between them.
When learning, you must also sign a contract to keep what you learn secret.
Moreover, learning magic from this place means you will be marked by this place.
Like Neymar, she is a wizard from Marl Academy, and her faith will automatically belong to the god of magic, Marl, making her a member of the Church of Marl.
Although the Church of the Dawn Goddess mainly focuses on Pastors and Paladins, a mature church has all kinds of professions.
It can be said that the church is currently the only place where the legacy of the Death Knight is openly acknowledged. This profession has disappeared from the eyes of ordinary people. The church keeps this legacy, claiming it is for the study of the Death Knight, to ensure they know their enemy, but the true reason remains a mystery to everyone.
"I can only decide to let her study some basic magic books, the ones for beginners in the church; the advanced ones are not allowed," Celica said.
"That’s fine, but her learning and research must not fall behind," Karoso nodded.
"So, can I take her with me now?" Celica asked. "She will stay with me at this hotel."
"No problem," Karoso replied more cheerfully this time.
Just right, the messages passed earlier seemed to be too many, and he needed to sort them out himself.
……
After the communication was cut off, Grand Duke Osiris carefully examined the items Karoso had given him, digesting them little by little.
Neymar becoming a god was something Osiris had never considered bringing to light.
Since it was about to be discovered, Osiris could only protect Neymar to the fullest extent.
It was not only Neymar’s own value but also Karoso’s importance placed on her.
A deity walking among people, what kind of storm could she create, and what benefits could she bring to Canglang Province?
"But…"
Grand Duke Osiris tapped his fingers on the table, "Who exactly is behind Karoso… When did he get involved with such power? Is this good or bad for him?"
The endless stream of cards, the groundbreaking cards, and the vast amount of information provided made Grand Duke Osiris cautious.
He did not know whether Karoso would lead Canglang Province to glory or to the abyss.
What exactly did they seek in cooperating with such power?
Osiris felt it was time to meet those people.
Not to mention, the information they provided was too frightening.
"Let a church pass the review quickly and become a true god church?"
Osiris arrived at the second level of the dungeon.
The wizard who had talked with Karoso before was quietly reading a book.
When he saw Osiris appear, he suddenly jumped in front of the cell door, grabbed the bars, and growled, "Where is my master?"
"Your master is in trouble," Osiris quietly looked at him, "I need you to confess, deny that you are part of the Church of Wisdom God, and then contact any members of the Church of Wisdom God you can reach, asking them to do more good deeds."
"What trouble?" The wizard shook the iron bars, "Where is she?"
"She is being targeted by the Church of Dawn Goddess, a god walking in the world, and still a god who has not regained her divine memories, with only divine status and power. Do you know what will happen if she is taken to the Church of Dawn Goddess?" Osiris said, "Your master might fall when she is weak."
"What?" The wizard’s expression changed, "Let me out, I want to rescue my master!"
"The Church of the Dawn Goddess will be crushed under the brilliance of our Lord!"
"Stop being unrealistic, Church of the Dawn Goddess, you cannot act against us." Grand Duke Osiris shook his head and said, "You can harm your master if you wish, but do not harm my daughter."
"I…"
"I don’t want to hear your nonsense." Osiris said calmly, "Now I will tell you what to do. You either listen or you don’t. I will hear your answer tomorrow."
"First, deny that you are a member of the Church of the Wisdom God, then write a request to the Wizard Association for your own demise. As long as you are dead, the evil god label on your back will make the Church of Wisdom God fade considerably, and the Church of the Dawn Goddess will have an easier time inspecting the Church of Wisdom God."
"Secondly, the followers should do more good deeds to speed up the review process, and I will offer my help here."
"As long as the Church of Wisdom God is legal, we can intervene in the inspection of Neymar."
"When the time comes, it will be up to you to protect Neymar."
"For the other forces, I will find a way to contact them and manipulate public opinion to make sure Neymar is inspected in the sunlight."
……
Back in the room, Grand Duke Osiris and Emperor Augustus started communication.
"Osiris, did you contact me to ask for money?" Emperor Augustus quickly stopped Osiris from speaking, fearing he wanted more money.
"Your Majesty, there is a problem with the railway that leaves Iron City, right?" Osiris said.
Emperor Augustus was silent for two seconds and then replied, "I don’t know, I never cared about small matters like building roads."
"On this trip to the City of Freedom, both children returned safely. You must have gained quite a few benefits there, right?" Osiris realized from this that the information Karoso sent back was true.
A problem with the railway is a serious matter!
If the Empire intends to act against Canglang Province…
Knowing too late would lead to unimaginable consequences!
Damn, there are still not enough talented people in Canglang Province. They couldn’t even find this out.
"Although Karoso brought Teresa into danger, we only gain benefits from it, right?" Osiris continued.
"Well, this situation turned out to be a blessing in disguise. Once I finish calculating, I can give you thirty percent of the earnings." Emperor Augustus was very clear; the matter of the railway was settled.
"Twenty percent is enough; I have a small favor I would like to ask Your Majesty…"
Emperor Augustus suddenly felt a wave of frustration.
This stingy person is asking for ten percent less; can this really be a small matter?
