This Holy Knight is So Despicable!

Chapter 88: Chapter 88 The Full-scale War Begins (Additional Release)

"Rather than discussing how to handle this dragon egg..."

The Red Archbishop Delman rubbed his chin: "Can we really call this a dragon egg?

I recently distributed some information to everyone, and I assume you’ve all seen it.

Galado was originally a dragon-shaped Chimera, and after death, it completed a rebirth through the Phoenix’s flame and the Holy Light Forbidden Curse.

Honestly, I find it hard to define it as a dragon egg."

The Black Robed Archbishop nodded slightly: "Indeed, what this egg actually is will decisively impact how we handle it.

Your Holiness the Pope, what do you think?"

The Pope pondered for a moment: "This egg involves the First Empire, Dragon Island, the Truth Remnants, and our Holy Light Church.

Though it is associated with all four parties, I believe our stance is closest to Dragon Island’s.

Here’s what we’ll do, Delman, under the name of the Holy Light Church’s Red Robed Holy Hall, draft a letter.

Clarify the origins of this egg and formally invite Dragon Island to study together how to deal with this egg.

Be polite in your wording, but there is no need to be overly servile. When necessary, let them know that the Church Court is not to be trifled with, and the leadership of this matter remains with us.

Currently, we seek to solicit an opinion.

Do you understand?"

The Red Archbishop Delman nodded repeatedly: "Rest assured! I will write that we promise not to be the first to use Saint Wright externally..."

The Pope felt gratified: "Indeed! Clear and concise!"

Lette suddenly raised his eyebrows: "Hey, hey, hey! What do you mean by this? Am I some kind of weapon of mass destruction? Do I look like detergent?"

"Just a bit of deterrence, after all, dragons are very arrogant."

The Pope tapped the table: "Before the final decision is made, Master Constant will temporarily keep this egg."

It made a round, but in the end, the dragon egg returned to Master Constant’s hands.

Lette spread his hands and whispered to the three girls beside him: "You see, this is called a procedure. Although the result is the same, because it goes through a round, there is no one main responsible party anymore.

If something goes wrong, there won’t be someone to take the blame."

"Ahem! Next topic!"

The Pope beckoned, and the Black Robed Archbishop placed a large bundle on the table, emitting a clattering sound.

"What’s this, scavenging scraps? Are you planning to retire early, Archbishop Cardwen?"

"This is the remnants of the Light Hunting Armor!"

The Black Robed Archbishop sighed: "Your last strike directly blew this to pieces, scattering it evenly.

Such an important thing, I had to personally lead the high-ranking members of the Holy Hall in a thorough search of your battle area.

Currently, we can ensure that ninety-six percent of the remnants are here.

The rest is truly impossible to find."

Lette picked up one piece and looked at it: "According to Minstrel Idelos’s translation, the material of this thing is a very rare metal.

Since it’s broken, let’s reforge it. I see Taylor doesn’t have a Holy Artifact yet, why not let him try?

Teacher, what do you think?"

When the Pope heard this, he immediately banged the table to make a decision: "Such valuable things, the remaining four percent must also be found!"

"Wait a minute! Hold on!"

The current de facto leader of the White Robed Group, Vice Bishop Mason, quickly stood up.

"The Light Hunting Armor was once the work of a Dwarf Clan’s Master of Casting. Every three years during the Holy Presence Ceremony, representatives of the Dwarves will visit the Holy Temple to pay respects, as a sign of respect and remembrance for the Grandmaster.

The envoy’s main contingent is about to arrive!

If those Dwarves learn that the Grandmaster’s work was destroyed, they will undoubtedly make a fuss."

Lette grinned: "That’s simple..."

The Pope immediately looked at him: "You intend to take action again, don’t you?"

"Teacher, don’t think of me as a brute who only knows how to solve problems with fighting? I’m a civilized person, I’ve read the Spring and Autumn Annals!"

Lette cheerfully tossed the piece of debris back into the bundle: "We can use this thing to frame others!

The Light Hunting Armor can resist all Light Attribute attacks. Now that it’s been blown up like this, even if someone claims our Holy Light Church was responsible,

do you think people would believe it?

This has been in the Holy Temple for thousands of years, if the Church wanted to destroy it, wouldn’t they have done so long ago?

Even if we genuinely wanted to destroy it, we wouldn’t have the capability to do so!"

Everyone felt that this seemed quite reasonable.

"Then... whom should we frame?"

"Hmph, right now we can frame whomever we want! We hold the power of passing the blame! Whoever displeases us, we’ll throw it at them."

Lette rubbed his hands, squinting slightly: "What do you all think about the Elf Empire? After all, the Dwarves and Elves don’t get along by nature!

And I’ve been displeased with those pointy ears for a long time!"

The Red Archbishop Delman eagerly chimed in: "Blame it on the First Empire!

According to our Red Robed Holy Hall’s intelligence, the First Empire has been making many moves lately. They have frequent and large-scale ore and ironware transactions with the Dwarf Clan.

This would greatly damage them!"

Lette smiled and tapped the table: "Looks like the First Empire has been restless. Once the Holy Presence Ceremony concludes, I’ll drop by."

"Really?"

"Great!"

"It’s a deal then!"

"Someone! Write this down! Lette, would you mind signing it?"

"Sign what! Lette always keeps his promises! Right, Lette?"

Seeing the hopeful expressions of the Church Court’s leaders and the three girls giggling while covering their mouths, Lette couldn’t help but wear a sullen face.

"Restrain yourselves, will you! Now is not the time for you to cry and beg me to come back to solve things!

Oh, truly they push you forward when needed and cast you aside when not!

Saying something about the Holy Light representing truth, goodness, and beauty! I’ve really fallen for your tricks!

Really should have Afra come down and take a look at what her believers are up to!

What happened to the spirit of the Holy Light!

With you all like this, how can you set an example for the world’s believers of the Holy Light!?"

Archbishop Cardwen mumbled softly: "If Lady Goddess finds out, she might laugh out loud."

Lette collapsed in his seat, eyes losing their shine: "Tired, I’m ready to destroy everything! Holy Light is dead, long live Lette!"

Buzz!

The Sin Light Greatsword suddenly appeared, radiating a dazzling light. Lette forcefully suppressed it, holding it in his hand.

"Actually, none of these things matter."

Lette stood up: "I now propose a full-scale declaration of war against the Truth Remnants!

A moderate enemy policy will only make the enemy more rampant! We must strike hard!

Taking advantage of this ceremony, we need to announce the registration and cataloging of all mages in every Holy Country.

Any magic item transactions must also be recorded!"

"Hiss..."

Everyone present took a deep breath, with Mason’s face full of worry.

"Lord Wright, are you planning to restart the witch-hunting campaign from fifty years ago? If so, it will push some neutral mages to the enemy’s side."

Archbishop Cardwen raised his hand: "I support Lette’s proposal!

Now we have the Holy Lady Pope being assassinated, and there’s the betrayal of the special envoy of the Holy Country’s envoy group! Even the royal bloodline!

The problem has become so severe that it must be reformed!"

The Red Archbishop also raised his hand: "I support it too! We can no longer be lenient and tolerant on this matter! Our Holy Light Church isn’t just a doormat!

Besides, others have climbed onto our heads to defile us!"

Led by the two archbishops, others quickly also raised their hands, showing support for Lette’s proposal.

Seeing this, Lette stood up.

"Alright, then I’ll leave the specific details to all of you. As for the remaining inconsequential topics, I won’t be attending.

Everyone, farewell!"

It seemed they were accustomed to Lette’s mid-meeting departures, so no one said anything.

The three girls followed Lette out of the meeting room, with Emily asking curiously.

"Why are we leaving in such a hurry?"

Lilith chuckled softly nearby: "Isn’t it obvious? He’s going to the Holy Tower to meet his old flame."
