This Holy Knight is So Despicable!

Chapter 99: Chapter 94: Walk the Path of Light (Seeking Monthly Ticket)_2

This is the effect Lette wanted to achieve. After all, the Holy Presence Ceremony is just a few days away, and there’s no way to complete a large project by then.

"Looks like many hands make light work!"

The day’s workload Lette had originally planned was unexpectedly completed in less than half a day.

After all, they had twice as many people, and due to those two exceptional cases, their enthusiasm was maximized.

So he waved his hand grandly: "Let’s go! Let’s build a new road to the dump site from yesterday!"

"Alright!!!"

Everyone was in high spirits and immediately embarked on another round of enthusiastic labor.

Yesterday, when they were hauling out the trash, everyone had suffered. The original road was winding and difficult, and transporting the garbage was more exhausting than clearing it.

Everyone hated that road, and today they could finally take revenge for yesterday!

At Lette’s command, everyone turned on the spot, heading straight for the former dump site.

Just as everything was going smoothly, someone came running hastily from the direction of the Holy City.

"Not good, not good! Over by the snack street! Something’s happened!"

Shouting as he ran, he was startled by the well-paved Bright Avenue but still rushed to the venue.

"Not good, not good! There’s a fight at the snack street!"

Lette slung a shovel over his shoulder, squinting his eyes slightly: "It’s a bit earlier than I expected. This Grandet, he’s acting a bit too hastily.

Sin Lights! Come with me to take a look!"

"Yes, Pope!"

The person who ran back cried on the big stage, saying that people from Holy Work Town were being bullied, and there was an argument going on at the snack street.

His commotion naturally made everyone lose interest in watching the show.

Flander was also taken aback, but when she saw Lette waving at her from afar, she immediately understood what was going on.

It seemed that this was another arrangement by the master’s highness.

"Family! Everyone, don’t be agitated! I’ll take you to see what exactly is happening!"

With this shout from Flander, the residents of Holy Work Town found their backbone.

Yes, after all, she is one of the Apprentice Saintesses.

With her here, we’re not afraid of being bullied!

Naturally, Flander became the leader of these people, leading them towards the Holy City.

Soon, they were shocked by the renewed Bright Avenue, and it also gave them more confidence.

Lette hid amongst the crowd with some people and joined up with Lilith.

"Hey! Was this another one of your crafty plans?"

Facing Lilith’s questioning, Lette sneered.

"A while ago, when I was idly chatting with Grandet, I asked him if all the merchants in the guild were law-abiding and shared our cause?

He smirked for a while, then told me.

Indeed, there are still a few troublemakers on this street. Relying on some unspeakable identities, they enjoy benefits on this street but are always causing trouble.

Not only do they overcharge customers, but they also sell some substandard products, greatly tarnishing the reputation of the commercial street.

Initially, Joanna had already given them a warning and directly shut down two or three stores.

But a few were still unrepentant and just became more secretive in their actions.

Moreover, these people are not very obedient to Grandet as the president, and occasionally they even go against him."

Lette rubbed his chin: "At that time, I thought of uprooting these troublemakers! But then I changed my mind and decided to keep them around for future needs.

And today, it’s finally come in handy!"

Lilith suddenly realized: "You’re planning to use them to make a stand? And at the same time, you can do a favor for the people of Holy Work Town!

Wow... you’re the biggest schemer of them all!"

Lette shrugged: "People, that’s how they are.

Rather than giving them benefits, it’s better to support them!

Especially for the people of Holy Work Town! Sweets and bullets are indeed effective, sincerity is commendable too.

But what do they really need?

It’s a pillar! A backing! Someone or an organization that can truly protect their interests!

Because they’ve always been at the bottom, accustomed to being bullied!

So, to win over the hearts of Holy Work Town completely, you have to see if you stand up when they’re being bullied.

Do you stand up, and does it make a difference!

A street as prosperous as a commercial street, how could it be entirely good people? There are bound to be crafty merchants.

Actually, as long as it’s not immoral, being a bit cunning in business is acceptable.

But the ones we’ve found today are the worst of the bad apples.

The residents of Holy Work Town are bound to have irreconcilable conflicts with these crafty merchants.

If that’s the case, let’s not reconcile, bring them out for public judgment, then punish those who should be punished, and fine those deserving fines.

By eliminating threats from the commercial street, we can also win over people’s hearts and ease conflicts.

Why not?"

As they spoke, everyone had already reached the North City Gate. The guards at the gate were from the Holy New Army, and Lette had already informed them in advance.

Seeing this large group of people going in, there was no intention of stopping them.

Some even saw Lette among the crowd and saluted him.

Such a large group of people immediately surrounded those making a commotion at the snack street.

The initially arrogant few, upon seeing so many from Holy Work Town coming, immediately shriveled up, not daring to say anything.

Fortunately, there were some arriving Holy New Army maintaining order, preventing a direct conflict.

Once the situation stabilized, Grandet, the president of the guild, finally appeared with his entourage, smiling.

"Oh my! What’s going on here! Doing good business, why smash someone else’s snack stall!"

"Grandet, you finally came! This is the snack street you’ve set up, stealing our business, right?"

The leader, an ostentatiously dressed noblewoman, was flushed with anger, like a beast with bared claws.

"These two! They stole the secret recipes from my store! Came here to make a fortune! You have to drive them out! Revoke their business licenses!

And make them compensate me with a large sum of money!"

The surrounding shop owners also began to jeer, showing their determination.

Grandet looked full of disdain: "Lady Oddom, your Holy City Souvenir Shop! You sell some wood and ceramic products.

The two did work in your shop, but later, it was you who fired them, right?

I remember you still owed them three months’ wages at the time, and the chamber of commerce covered it for you.

Now they’re running a stand selling homemade snacks, does that have anything to do with the souvenirs you sell in your store?

How did it become that they stole your recipe?"

"Grandet! Whose side are you on?"

"I am the president of the chamber of commerce, I won’t be biased towards any side!"

"Alright, alright! Today I’m going to smash their stall, let’s see who dares to stop me!"

"Stop!"

Flander immediately stepped forward, standing before the snack stall: "In the name of Light! I won’t allow you to do this!"

"You! Where did you come from?"

"My name is Saint Françoise! I am an Apprentice Saintess, and also a leader of the New Church!"

"Ha! That’s hilarious! I’ve lived in this Holy City for most of my life! How come I didn’t know there’s someone like you among the Apprentice Saintesses?

Dare to impersonate a Saintess! You really don’t know how you’re going to die!

Well, you lot, you dared to collude with criminals impersonating a Saintess!

I see, today you’re all going to be executed! Thrown into the dungeon!"

Her commotion made everyone in Holy Work Town panic. People began to whisper, and their morale weakened significantly.

At this moment, Lette walked out through the crowd.

"Really, that formidable, then take a look at me, am I also a fake?"

Lette’s appearance made the faces of those few crafty merchants instantly change. The arrogance and color drained from their faces, leaving them utterly pale.

"Saint Françoise, she was recommended by me to the Pope. She is already one of the Apprentice Saintesses, it’s just that some paperwork is in process and hasn’t been announced yet.

You, did you just say she was fake?"

Lady Oddom was so frightened she could barely stand: "No, no! I didn’t, I just didn’t know."

"The commercial street, is my property. Your store is in my building. Isn’t that right?"

"Yes... yes, your highness."

"You’re quite arrogant, aren’t you? A souvenir seller coming here for snack recipes. I didn’t know your store switched to the food business?"

"No... no, I... I was just confused for a moment... I..."

"Were you confused just for a moment?"
