The sudden selection of a saint by Cindy Phalanx has left the minds of the people around him devastated.
Among them, the first to come to mind was Amelie Madesti, as the chief executive of the delegation.
“Sir Cindy? What is this now?”
“I have received a revelation from God.”
At Cindy’s answer, Amelie had to raise her eyes and raise her hand to cover her mouth.
Everyone except Leon expected it to be the case.
The priests sometimes have increased divine power in return for their faith, but there was only one case where the divine power overflowed like a dyke that suddenly collapsed.
God bless you.
appointment of a saint.
However, the reason why everyone had to put their minds to rest despite expecting it was because the target was none other than the Cindy Phalanx.
Obviously, she was a paladin who was favored by God from an early age.
Her martial arts were at the level of 10 stars, but with the blessing of God, she possesses a powerful martial arts that can overwhelm 11-star knights.
But on the other hand, she has already received so many blessings.
As a human being, there is a limit to the amount of blessing that can be granted to that body.
Only when there is a vessel made of innate talent and cultivated faith can we contain the water of life called blessing.
But what if you pour your blessings on top of a bowl that is already full?
The bowl will overflow and the extra blessing will spill on the floor.
That was the truth of what was happening now.
overflow of divine power.
waste of blessings.
But that’s it, and Amelie had to figure it out.
There is no way the gods in the heavens are unaware of that fact.
Nevertheless, to give a blessing to Cindy at this point in time meant that the contents of the revelation contained urgency.
“What did the gods say?”
“that is······.”
Cindy looked at Leon with a squint and hesitated.
I’m trying to figure out if I can say this.
At Cindy’s reaction, Amelie became impatient and rushed.
“Hurry up!”
“That is, to serve Lord Leon more respectfully.”
In the end, Cindy had no choice but to refine the content of the revelation.
Not to mention, even in the long history of the Holy Empire, Saint Lane, there has never been a single revelation to serve humans as gods.
Rather, the gods in the heavens have been telling us to humble ourselves by doing good deeds by humbly looking around us rather than mistaking it for our own abilities just because we were chosen by God.
Nevertheless, if someone shouted, ‘I have been chosen by God!’ or ‘I am God’s agent!’
If the opponent is a fanatic who serves demons, it is a natural conclusion that they should be killed. will make
However, the heavenly gods told us to serve Leon with us.
To serve Leon, who is obviously only human, like gods.
Even if it is a revelation from God, if you spit out its contents as it is, even if it is suspected as a heresy, there is nothing to say.
So Amelie couldn’t help but panic.
“To serve Lord Leon with more respect…?”
He would have thought that if he had told him to serve Leon as a god, he would have thought, but he could not understand what it meant to serve Leon, whom he had already respected, more respectfully.
“However······.”
If the gods said so, then it would be their duty as a servant of heaven to obey them.
Amelie stopped interpreting the divine revelation and put it into practice.
Currently, there are 30 priests in the delegation serving Leon, and 10 of them were made up of diacons.
The status of an apprentice priest as a class that a priest who has just awakened to divine power rises.
His main job is to assist the higher priests.
Simply put, it was backwards.
In the first place, the etymology of the noun “diacon” meant slaves and servants, so even if it was an envoy serving state guests, they needed workers to handle chores.
“From now on, all Diacons, please faithfully serve Sir Leon by your side. This is a revelation from God, so if you find yourself lacking in serving Lord Leon, you will immediately be deprived of the priesthood. Also, so that the bishops can take turns taking on the chores of the delegation by 10 people.”
At those words, all the priests had no choice but to flag together.
First of all, depriving a priest from the ranks meant excommunicating him from the church.
It was like a threat to make a body so that he could never return to the priesthood or seek asylum in a foreign country, so that he would never be able to handle the divine power again.
There, the duties of the remaining 20 priests of the delegation were bishops and bishops.
In terms of the title of nobility, it was a high rank equivalent to a count, but Amelie ordered them to take care of your affairs, since all the diacons will serve as servants of Leon.
But none of those who received the command could refute Amelie’s words.
In the first place, the order itself was a revelation from God, and Amelie was an Akbishop, the highest rank among them.
At Amelie’s instructions, Cindy had a bewildered expression on her face,
Veronica, who was originally serving Leon, had an angry expression after losing her maid’s job.
Leon was interested in the conversation between them.
‘Did the gods command me to be more favorable?’
What the hell does that mean?
Leon couldn’t even guess what the great ones in the sky were thinking.
However, the journey on the wagon, which continued for a month, was very pleasant.
Even if Leon says he will sweat even a little, the diacons will come to him and wipe his sweat with a handkerchief, create a cool breeze with divine magic, and bring a parasol to cover the sun. it could have been

Leon was finally able to arrive at Deluge, the capital of the Holy Empire, Saint Lane.
On top of the hill towering in the center of it stood a huge and holy temple.
It was the temple where the Pope lived, the Holy See.
Uniquely, the papal palace had no walls.
It was a temple, not a castle, so it was natural, but it could not be compared to the royal castle of the Philo Kingdom, which was protected by thick walls.
The gods in the heavens do not block anyone’s access, so the walls were not built so that anyone from the highest to the lowest could freely enter and exit.
Of course, even if he did, he was protected by hundreds of paladins and thousands of priests to keep the pope safe.
However, there was no wall, but the size of the temple was so huge and splendid that it could not be compared with the royal castle of the Philo Kingdom.
If the country with the best military power on the Radiant Continent is Ibrium, the Millennium Empire,
The Holy Empire, Saint Lane, is the most livable country on the continent.
The amount of foreign currency they earned was high and the standard of living of ordinary people was high, so the tax flowing into the Vatican seemed to be huge.
As I passed the vast corridor lined with tall pillars, countless ornaments adorned with gold and silver treasures caught my eye.
And at the end of it, the audience room was finally revealed through the wide open door.
The audience room consisted of a stepped structure.
Seven huge stone statues are on the highest place,
At the lower level, 28 small stone statues were lined up.
Beneath him was the throne, and light poured in from a window in the ceiling, illuminating the seat of the pope.
Under it, three cardinals were lined up on the left and right, and the Archbishops, and finally, the paladins who guarded the pope until the bottom left and right, were standing side by side.
After stepping on the red carpet in the middle, Leon walked out halfway and put his right hand on his chest to show manners.
“Thank you for coming here. Sir Leon Farostel. It took a lot of hard work to meet such an urgent invitation and find that long way.”
“It’s not like that. Archbishop Amelie and Sir Cindy Paladin took great care and made it a pleasant trip.”
“okay. Sir Amelie and Sir Cindy, how have you been?”
“Yes. With the help of heaven, I was able to carry out my mission safely. And there is another good news.”
“Hey, is that good news? Does it have anything to do with Sir Cindy’s change of momentum?”
At those words, Cindy, who was bowing her head and making a ceremony for Amelie, stepped forward, knelt and raised her head.
“The will of God came upon me and I was selected as a saint.”
At Cindy’s remarks, the Pope shed a small sigh of relief.
“Since time immemorial, Sir Cindy has been a paladin who has been loved by the gods of heaven. So, what did you say to the gods?”
Cindy hesitated for a moment at the pope’s question.
As I continued my journey, I thought about it several times, but it was not cleared up until the situation came.
However, after a brief deliberation, Cindy got up from her seat and approached the Pope with her head bowed.
When the pope understood Cindy’s intentions and gave permission to the escorts, the escorts took a step back, and along the open road Cindy approached and whispered to the pope.
‘Serve Leon Farostel with us.’
The Pope’s face hardened upon hearing those words.
In that moment, he realized why Cindy had such a hard time conveying these words, and deepened his thoughts as to whether the words had other meanings.
Serve humans like gods.
Since this had never happened before in the thousands of years of history of the Holy Empire that served the Seven Lords, the authenticity of it had to be questioned.
However, the Pope, unable to show his true intentions to the guests, soon concealed his anxieties from his face and told Leon.
“The reason I invited Sir Leon Farostel to this distant Holy Empire is none other than that I heard that you have developed a way to solve the food shortage. Your achievement deserves the praise of the whole continent, how could I have been able to stand still?”
“It’s overrated.”
“It’s not overdone. I’ve heard reports that your achievements will amount to tens of thousands of lives saved immediately. And that’s only in the Philo Kingdom. Imagine if your development spreads across the continent beyond the limited land of the Philo Kingdom. You will save tens and hundreds of billions of lives in the history of mankind that will continue beyond millions and tens of millions.”
Leon bowed his head at his words and smiled bitterly.
It was because he felt the hidden meaning of the Pope’s words.
“If it’s okay with you, can’t you share your great achievements with our Holy Empire, Saint Lane?”
Leon’s achievements have saved countless lives.
As the Pope said, the only circulating chemical fertilizers was the small land called the Philo Kingdom.
But what if that technology is shared with other countries and spread to all continents?

Just looking at the current state of the earth right now, you can guess.
Population explosion.
If the Holy Empire, Saint Lane, is a nation that acts on the earth to act on the will of the heavens, Leon’s high-speed cultivation technology was absolutely necessary to win the demon world.
An increase in the population meant the same thing as an increase in the number of soldiers who would fight against the demon realm.
“Of course, I will pay the full price. If you want wealth, I’ll give you gold that you can use for the rest of your life. If you want power, I will grant you the honorary cardinal position. If you want honor, I can make you a saint of the Holy Empire. Come on, tell me. I’ll give you anything you want.”
The Pope’s proposal was truly extraordinary.
To give up the seat of a cardinal, that only those who have proven their highest faith among the clergy can ascend.
It was the same meaning that, speaking of the Philo Kingdom, he would grant a dukeship that only the royal family could ascend.
Even as a duke of the Empire, in terms of power alone, Leon could rise to a higher position than the Marquis of Parostel at once.
Would you like to nominate him as a saint there?
It was meant to guarantee the achievements in the name of the Holy Empire for resolving the food shortage, and to support all causes in the name of the Holy Empire no matter what Leon did.
But Leon shook his head.
As well as the first proposal, financial power, neither power nor honor immediately appealed to Leon.
At first, Leon knew from the beginning that the Pope would come out like this.
And from the beginning, I had already thought about what to ask for.
“Holy Relic Phylostis.”
It was a headdress in the form of a forehead worn by a wizard who would later be called a shrine.
The 7th circle mass magic meteor can only be used by demons and dragons.
The reason was that the principle of Meteor was a magic that accelerated and exploded by creating a magical substance in a satellite orbit thousands of kilometers in the sky.
Even with Leon’s mental power, the limit that he can respond to magical power is 800 meters at the most.
No matter how much he honed his mental powers, he could not extend the influence of magic more than 1 km.
However, demons and dragons have their horns acting as antennas, and it is possible to exert magical influences from tens, hundreds, or thousands of kilometers away.
The holy relic Phylostis was also a relic with such powers.
The wizard, who would later be called Jingu, fired the magic arrow, and was able to detect the location of a monster several tens of kilometers away and shoot it down.
At Leon’s request, the Pope’s expression became mysterious.
Of course, there are numerous relics in the Vatican’s treasury, and the relic Philostis requested by Leon was one of them.
However, the list of the Vatican’s treasury is only known to a small part, including the Pope.
He couldn’t figure out how Leon found out that Philostis was in the Vatican’s treasury.
But Leon’s demands did not end there.
“And if you grant me the seed of divinity, I will consider it.”
seeds of divinity.
It was a legendary elixir that allowed people who had no divine power to sprout.
