This Holy Knight is So Despicable!

Chapter 124: Chapter 116 The Pitiful Red Archbishop

"Calm down... Most fairy tales and fables are meant to teach children.

So, a large part of them are related to lying.

So if you put it that way, the one that fits the Liar Demon the most should be Pinocchio and his nose."

Hearing Lette say this, Emily finally calmed down a bit.

"I’m just worried about Sister Joanna..."

"You’ve never even met her, so why do you seem so close?"

"Because I can understand her! I believe she can understand me too."

Lilith pouted, "Hmph!"

"Oh, Lilith~ you’re the best too. I know, you look after me the most!"

Seeing Emily coaxing Lilith, Lette rubbed his temples.

"It’s so strange, but I can’t quite say what’s strange about it. Anyway, I somewhat regret taking you out from Count Lawrence’s place."

After breakfast, Lette slapped the table and stood up.

"Now, we’ll split into two teams.

Lilith, you take these two to the commercial street and find Grandet.

Have him help find a crystal big enough; magic or non-magic, attribute doesn’t matter.

I can modify it, just needs to be big and beautiful.

Also, have him find a shoemaker for me, design, and make it look stylish."

Under Emily’s swaying, Lilith nodded, "Okay, but today’s expenses..."

"Charge it to my account...speaking of which, people on commercial street know you guys by now, right? Would anyone really charge you?"

"We usually just offset it with your house rent."

"...are you a goddess of wealth or something?"

"They actually call me an angel... Well, it’s quite troublesome for a demon like me."

"I’m the one who’s troubled!"

Lette pinched his brow: "Forget it, forget it, don’t get angry. Anger leads to illness, no one to replace.

Anyway, you guys go to the commercial street and handle this for me."

"And what about you?"

"I’ll go to the Pope Palace and let the Pope inform Afra about the Liar Demon. The Holy Presence is near, and although we don’t know if the prophecy is true or false, it’s worth notifying."

"...can’t you just remove that Holy Shackles Seal on you?"

Lette immediately grabbed his collar, "No way! If I remove it, Afra would pester me to death!"

Lilith rolled her eyes, "Okay, but I suggest you go to the Red Robed Holy Hall. Recently, the one in contact with Lady Goddess the most should be Archbishop Delman."

"Makes sense!"

After leaving the manor, Lette gave the carriage to Lilith and the other two, while he walked alone to the Red Robed Holy Hall.

When he arrived, he found the entrance surrounded and impenetrable.

And the usually bustling Red Robed Holy Hall still hadn’t opened until midmorning today.

Wisely, Lette didn’t choose to enter through the main gate but quietly went around to the back and slipped in through a window.

Once inside the hall, the red-robed believers were startled.

"Who?"

"It’s me!"

"Ah! Your Highness! Lord Wright, you finally came!"

The red-robed believers seemed to have found their savior, they all crowded around to complain.

"What’s going on? Didn’t open today?"

"Can’t open, your Highness. The people outside are from the Exiled Sect! They’ve been coming the past two days asking when those three regular positions will be available.

We don’t know how to fulfill it or how to select. So we’ve been delaying, and the more we delay, the more people ask.

When their numbers increase, it makes our regular work impossible to manage, and now our regular business is piling up.

It’s all become like this in a cycle."

Lette felt somewhat helpless, "Such a small issue, Archbishop Delman should find this easy to deal with.

Where is he?"

"The Archbishop... lately he’s been all spiritual, doesn’t seem well mentally, and keeps apologizing, not sure what for.

When we ask him, he says he’s chatting with the Goddess, and in the past two days, he hasn’t done any work. The whole person is acting strange."

Lette felt a bit embarrassed, he had a rough idea of what Archbishop Delman was mainly talking about.

"Where is he now?"

"In the second-floor office."

Lette nodded and walked towards the stairs, then suddenly came back.

"Tell those in the Exiled Sect to start assessing the Holy Light aptitude of their members starting now.

To regularize, they need at least twenty with a medium Holy Light aptitude.

One with high aptitude equals ten with medium aptitude.

One with medium aptitude equals ten with elementary aptitude.

Those not meeting the standards have no right to participate in this selection!

If the numbers are lacking, find a way yourselves!

Encourage inter-merging!"

"Oh oh oh, okay, okay! Your Highness, we’ll handle it right away!"

Upon hearing Lette’s words, the red-robed believers suddenly saw a way to solve, and eagerly went to open up for business.

Lette quickly made his way to the Archbishop’s office on the second floor and pushed the door open.

"Archbishop Delman? Are you alright?"

"Lette! You scoundrel!"

Delman, looking pale with two dark circles under his eyes, rushed over.

"You bastard, you put me through hell!"

"Wow... you’ve really become haggard?"

"It’s all because of you! I’ve been scolded by the Holy Light Goddess for three days and nights straight! Three days and nights without stopping, do you know that?"

"You might as well sing it out."

Lette helped him sit down and cast several Holy Light Spells on him.

But because they have been working with the Holy Light for so long, they’ve built up some resistance.

With no other choice, Lette quietly summoned the magic ring and then used Life Magic to heal him.

After spiritual power and life force were restored, Archbishop Delman was quite surprised.

"Eh! Life magic? Did you use a magic scroll?"

"Ah yes, I spoke with a special envoy from the Elf Empire a few days ago, and it’s a small gift from them. Are you feeling better now?"

Archbishop Delman was teary-eyed, without his usual dignity.

"Much better... I should have thought of it. Lady Goddess, doesn’t need sleep, rest, or even water!"

Lette, seeing this, felt quite apologetic and could only give an embarrassed smile.

"Oh right, what made you suddenly come to seek me out today?"

"Ahem, you might not believe it, but I came to find you to communicate with Afra. There’s something very important that needs..."

"I refuse!!!"

"Archbishop! You’re an archbishop! How can you refuse communication with the Goddess?"

"Cut the nonsense! You’re the Saint Heir, why don’t you do it?"

"I’ve had the Holy Shackles placed on me!"

"...Do you have another? Give me a set too!"

Delman’s face was full of refusal, "Here’s the deal, go find an ordinary red-robed believer, they can handle this!"

"No, this matter is extremely important with a very high confidentiality level. In any case, you’ve managed for so long, a little more won’t matter."

"I think you’re trying to make sure I take my last breath too!"
