She Is Not a Witch Chapter 123: Thinking and decision
"Lord Otis, he is here."
There were whispering voices from the crowd, quite surprised at the arrival of the Paladin Knight Commander. Although the scene today is a bit chaotic, it is not a major event. After a while, the Ten Sword Palace mobilizes people to easily disperse the troubled pastors, and then talk one by one to slowly eliminate the matter.
But now that the large group leader personally appears, the nature of the matter will become official, and it will not be so easy to suppress it.
"Why are you making noise here, disturbing the order of the holy mountain."
Head of Otis had a serious face, his sharp eyes slowly swept across, and the people present did not dare to look directly at him and bowed their heads.
The scene fell silent, and after a while, a pastor's voice trembled a little to explain.
"We have suffered injustice, thinking, wanting to ask for an explanation, and fairness." He looked at the lion-like man nervously.
"What injustice have you suffered." Odis's voice was calm as a mountain.
"We have all these years..." After that, he began to explain slowly, and some of his companions gradually began to talk to help supplement.
The idea is probably that a group of pastors who had similar grades back then, because of the different churches and regions assigned, as the years passed, the status and treatment gaps were significant. They worked harder and paid more, but did not get the response. Respect and rewards, they were mocked and despised by pastors in rich regions.
"Why are we doing this for the church in the most difficult place, and doing our responsibilities for the peace of this world, yet we have to suffer such humiliation!"
"Mud priest, coal priest, from the country, shabby guy, etc., this is the title they place on us, no matter how long we work, no matter how much we give, there will be no chance of promotion. Come to us.” A group of people talked, recalling the hardships of these years, and some even shed tears, which made many onlookers feel sentimental.
"Your efforts and hardships are seen by the church and will be remembered forever." Otis' tone at this time also eased slightly.
"But after all, your behavior like this is not good. In this way, everyone is like this. So where is the order, it is absolutely not advisable to distribute according to the trouble."
"You go back first, believe this matter, Ten Sword Palace and the church will give you an explanation."
The people who used to be extremely harsh, showed this soft feeling at this moment, which immediately moved the pastors, so they also admitted their mistakes, saying that such an excessive procession should not destroy the order and peace in the holy mountain.
Finally, under the arrangement of these holy spear knights, they returned to the guest mansion outside the Holy Flame Palace to rest. This was the residence of the branch church when it came to the headquarters.
After watching this group of people disperse and disappear into the night, several guards of the Palace of Ten Swords frowned slightly. Today this incident was really sudden. They also just received the news and rushed over. They didn't expect things to develop like this.
"What should I do, Captain?" asked a guard next to him.
"Let’s report to Master Sibis first, this matter doesn’t seem simple." The golden armor guard put away his weapon and walked quickly to the Palace of Ten Swords with someone.
---------
After the incident on the opposite side of the mountain, the crowd dispersed and slowly recovered quiet, and in the restaurant under the Holy Flame Palace, seven students from Emenes were enjoying their dinner.
Compared with other palaces, the restaurant here seems to have more meat, which greatly satisfies the recent lack of taste of this group of students.
"Come on, have another drink." The boys drank a little, blushing and having thick necks.
"Fuck!"
Although the language and culture are completely different, the scene on the wine table is always so similar. Lorrain Hill looked at the people in front of him, shook his head slightly, and then turned his gaze to the small wine glass beside him. Among them is the light red fruit wine, which seems to be brewed from a kind of red plum from the holy mountain, the degree is not high, and the taste is sweet and sour.
She seldom drank alcohol, but this was a rare gathering and didn't want to be too maverick, so she ordered a glass of fruit wine.
"Rocher, Boli, come, let's have a drink too."
Jelika is holding a blackjack and wants to clink with the two people next to her. She seems to drink well, and seems to drink often before.
"I can only drink a little bit, otherwise I will feel dizzy." Boli looked at the remaining liquid in her glass with a little fear, as if it was extremely awful and bitter.
"Okay, okay, I won’t be embarrassed. Rocher, how much do you drink, if you can’t, don’t force it." Jelica turned around and looked at the silver-haired dazed with the wine glass. Maiden.
"It's nothing, it's okay." There was a smile in the girl's voice, and then the girls touched the cups again before they slowly finished the liquid.
Compared with liquor with a high degree, most liquors on the Western Continent are not too high in degree, and there are not many merchants using distillation technology. Alchemists often use distillation to extract some substances.
The seven were just like that, they ate and chatted until the night darkened.
"It's too early. Let's stop here for today's party." After eating the dishes on the table, the few people drank almost, so it was time to partake.
"I will go back with Rohill and Boli, and you boys will take care of each other." Jelica said first, she didn't want to help these drunk boys, nor did she want her two friends to help.
"Well then, be careful on the road."
Hysen nodded to the three of them, and then one by one, he directly carried them on his shoulders and walked out of the restaurant slowly, like a rare strongman. The others held hands to each other and walked out of the restaurant slowly.
"Let’s go too. Boli don’t look, don’t worry about them. Among us, except you, we are all above Sequence 5, so there will be no safety issues on the road."
"Well, although...but...you are right, but I always feel offended." Boli muttered a little unwillingly, and then she was grinned by Jelika Pull away.
The three of them returned along the mountain road. They walked relatively briskly and slowly disappeared into the night because they were more sober and didn't need to support them.

The Palace of Ten Swords, the Inner Palace of Flowing Water.
Sibis is eating, and the large table is full of swept-up plates. His appetite seems to have always been good.
Hiccup——
The potbellied man finally put down the cutlery in his hand and stretched out his hands. The attendant on the side came immediately, wiped his hands with a wet towel, and then asked people to start cleaning the table.
"It seems a bit noisy outside today. Let the captain on duty come in and report." He lay on a comfortable chair, closed his eyes, and let the nun behind him massage his head, speaking softly.
"Yes, Sir Sibis." Then an attendant went to inform the captain of the guard who had been waiting at the door for a long time.
"Sir Sibis..."
The captain salutes first, and then slowly reports on what happened in the Palace of the Holy Flame this evening.
After he finished the report, Sibis did not respond immediately, but was quiet for a while.
"I see. I will wait for you and a few who were present at the time. Transcribe the detailed process at that time and put it in the palace. Someone will analyze it slowly."
"Yes, Sir Sibis."
"Well, then you go down first." He raised his fat hand and waved it slightly, letting the people on both sides exit the palace, leaving only a nun who helped him with the massage and a personal attendant.
"Odis...heh, when did you become so cunning." He seemed to sigh something, and then asked the two people beside him.
"Tell me, is he doing things with good intentions and impartially, or he has no intentions."
"Of course it's not intentional." The attendant on the side said so, seeming to be happy to have the opportunity to perform.
"Oh, then you can analyze it for me." Sibis closed his eyes with a smile on his face.
"If the original normal development, the guards of our Ten Sword Palace arrive, disperse the group of disturbing priests, detain a few more leaders, and slowly ask for a few months, and wait for the heat to pass. Just give them a little bit more advantage."
"But now is the critical moment of the Pope's election. In this way, although he helped us stop the incident, we will be somewhat passive no matter how we act."
"If we still ignore this matter and let it go on, the stigma on our heads will not be eliminated, which will greatly affect the recent election."
"But if we solve it, the situation will be worse. It is much easier to pick the wrong thing than to solve the problem. A little carelessness will cause greater conflicts, and more people will think we are The Palace of Ten Swords is good for bullying, and like this group of priests, they caused the contradictions of these years one by one."
"It could have been forcibly suppressed, but after this group of Paladins appeared, we would be stopped by them if we went to arrest people near the Holy Flame Palace. At the same time, such behavior would in turn prove that we were guilty of conscience. Dare to publish it to the public, which greatly undermines the prestige of the past."
He happily analyzed, and he said more and more, seeming to be proud of his intelligence.
Papa--
Sibis patted his palms and said, "Very good, not bad, it is true. But do you have any good countermeasures?"
"This..." The excited attendant just mentioned suddenly got stuck, and couldn't think of any good ideas for a long time.
"Then keep quiet. If you can’t solve the problem, don’t raise the issue. No matter what organization or where it is, there must be various problems and problems. If you can see it, but you can’t find it. The effective solution is to pretend not to see it."
"Things that give people hope and take away are the most hated."
"Yes, Sir Sibis." The attendant who had just been publicly quieted suddenly and stopped speaking.
Sibis leaned on the recliner, enjoying the cool air in the courtyard of the Inner Palace of Flowing Water. He slowly played with the gadgets in his hands, his eyes condensed slightly, as if he was thinking of some questions.
Wait until late at night, he signaled and asked someone to call in the captains of the guards outside the palace, and after a few soft orders, he went back to take a bath, and then went to rest.

After returning to her place of residence, Boli went to bed early, and after taking a shower, Lorrain Hill sat at the desk, holding a pen in her hand, under the dim light of a candle Next, write something.
As the pope's election approached, she began to consider her future choices, whether to participate in it and interfere, or to keep a low profile and not participate in this event.
It is foreseeable that once you participate, you will definitely be at risk, either because your identity will be exposed or it will trigger a conflict between the two countries.
But it is not appropriate to not interfere at all. If the sanctuary is biased towards the Frost Rose, then Crancia will face an extremely difficult opponent in the future.
The church has its own branches all over the mainland, with good reputation and a considerable public base. If it is done right, it will not only face hundreds of thousands of extraordinary people, but also deal with the surging public opinion. These will become huge The instability factor of China has shaken the foundation of the country.
It seems that you still have to get involved. At least one pope must be chosen to remain neutral.
Lorland Hill stroked the still wet hair around her ears, and the night wind blew across her body and felt a hint of coolness. He drew four names on the paper,'Charente, Otis, and Sibi' 'Beenes'.
According to its daily behavior and rumors, ‘Sibis’ is not a good united partner for Crancia, and there is a huge gap between the values of the two sides.
Although ‘Odis’ usually has a rigorous style, he is the kind of person who values his own interests very much. It would be very troublesome and unpleasant to join with him. He is only on the side of interest and has great ambitions. For Crancia and Frost Rose, he is not a good ally. Only choose him when there is no choice.
'Charente' himself is too mysterious and powerful. The personnel of the two parties dare not to easily draw in and contact, so as not to cause bad feelings. Perhaps he is more loyal to the duties and justice of the church, and using small methods in front of him will only Insult yourself.
The only one who remains and seems to speak well is'Beenes'. She is not bad in her own strength, has a kind personality, and has a group of loyal and close supporters.
But since they have become Sequence 9, their xinxing and wisdom are not idle existences, and they are not people who can easily coax and persuade.
If you want to really win over the priestess, you have to show your sincerity, otherwise it's no use.
Lorlandhill draws a circle on Beines's name with a pen, and then writes some information next to it to aid thinking.
'Angel Sequence 9 ``The Moon of Water Dew Golden Branches'' Aquarius Palace Scepter Priest'' Emenas Mentor ``Intellectual Partiality'' can communicate ``Calm and wise'' Public and private separation'' already knows oneself Identity ``Living in the Vortex Tower'
She stopped her pen~IndoMTL.com~ looking at the page in front of her, thinking slowly, her body motionless.
After a long time, she continued to write a line of characters, and then put down the pen in her hand.
It seems that we still have to talk to the priestess to see what her views are, and how similar or similar parts of these views can be found in Crancia, so as to strengthen each other Recognition.
She is not the kind of person who can be easily shaken by profit, but she will give in because of some ideals and righteousness. This is what makes Lorrain Hill quite good.
I hope each other can become friends.
Lorlandhill blows out the candle in front of him, puts away the papers on the table, and returns to bed to sleep.
The moon sets westward, and it is as cool as water in the middle of the night.
