"Archbishop, ahead is Frozen Earth Territory."

"This is a Baron lord. The lord is Ryan·Clayton, a descendant of the empire Blaze Dragon Count Clayton Family."

"But this place is far away from South. It is not taken seriously by the empire. It is just a Baron. It certainly does not dare to refuse our search."

Frozen Earth Territory, Ryan in the castle was awakened by the call of the housekeeper. He glanced out the window and saw that it was indeed late.

"What's going on?"

"Sir, Frozen Earth Territory is here with a team of the Church missionaries, and they want to ask to see you."

"Preacher?"

Ryan frowned.

"Come so quickly, let them come to see me."

Soon, the great Lord Frozen Earth Territory, the noble Baron master of the empire Ryan·Clayton received guests from far away, enemies of the empire, and believers of Lord of Dawn.

"Thank you to my Lord for Dawn Dispel the darkness."

Ryan said in a gentle voice, which made the missionaries' eyes light up. When they looked at Ryan, they seemed to have met a close friend.

"Baron-sama, you..."

Involuntarily, some missionaries have already used honorifics, something they had never done before when treating Marquis of Northwind.

"Mr. Missionary has misunderstood. I am just an ordinary person. I am in awe of the powerful Deities who has protected the South land under Northern Lands and protected us from the pain of Winter's Chill."

"Frozen Earth Territory is colder than other places, but it is warmer than Northlands deep inside, right?"

"I believe that no one can provide such protection except Deities."

"I am not a believer, but I am grateful to the great Dawn for bringing light like a flame."

Ryan These explanations made the missionaries' inner goodwill continue to rise. As believers, it is only natural to believe in Deities. However, it is a rare quality for non-believers to be grateful for the glory of the Lord.

As the saying goes, home flowers cannot be as fragrant as wild flowers. In the eyes of these missionaries, Baron Ryan is just such a wild flower outside of believers.

The most important thing is that this is the wild flower of the empire.

For a moment, even Red-haired Woman's eyes softened a lot when he looked at Ryan.

"The light of the Lord shines on the world, and your territory will definitely not be eroded by the cold winter of Northlands."

"When my Lord wakes up, Dawn's light will definitely help you Dispel Northlands in the cold winter."

Ryan is still smiling.

"Archbishop is joking. I am just an ordinary person. How dare I ask for Deities's gift to save Frozen Earth Territory."

After being polite, Ryan asked knowingly:

"I wonder why Archbishop came to Frozen Earth Territory this time?"

"You should have entered the empire from South. Why are you at Northwind Province?"

At this point, Archbishop did not speak, but the missionary behind him spoke angrily.

"Sir Baron, you don't know something. A believer of our Lord, a devout priest, died here. We need to find the truth and let the empire punish the criminals and heretics Blasphemy of Deities."

"We used Divine Art to search and finally determined that Father Buffett's body was at the edge of your territory."

The corpse was inside the area of Frozen Earth Territory, Ryan thought so, because his territory was slowly expanding, but these missionaries said it was on the fringe because of their favorability.

"Blasphemy of Deities heresy? How could this happen? Even the empire would not allow someone Blasphemy of Deities, let alone a heretic."

"He believes in Evil God?"

Ryan looked surprised and a little shocked.

"Ahem~"

Archbishop Adriana coughed slightly, interrupted the missionary, and said:

"Master Baron is not a heretic, but a pure blasphemer."

"We hope Baron that you can help us find out the truth. When the time comes, the Church will punish the blasphemer, and you can also gain the Church's friendship."

Perhaps because they had felt the faith in Ryan's words before, these people did not suspect that Ryan killed Father Buffett.

"The Church's friendship... of course I am willing, but I'm afraid you have found the wrong person."

"I have not killed any the Church personnel, Deities can testify for me."

"Frozen Earth Territory There will not be any people who will kill the Church's priest. I think... they don't have the strength to do it."

Ryan's words quietly enhanced the power of the Church, making the missionaries' eyes become kinder.

"We believe you, but the body has disappeared at the edge of your territory. Can you allow us to search for it at Frozen Earth Territory?"

"This won't work!"

Ryan appropriately expresses the anger of a lord.

"Frozen Earth Territory is my territory. No outsider can act unscrupulously in my territory."

"Your appearance will scare my people. You should also know that the relationship between the empire and the Church has never been good."

"If word spreads again, I, the son of a great nobleman of the empire, and Baron and the Church personnel of Frozen Earth Territory are unclear, that Marquis of Northwind will definitely take me to Imperial Capital for punishment."

"You may not know that not long ago, the Count Weiss here was because of the Church, and now the entire family has disappeared."

"Your Majesty, how miserable you are!"

Ryan's expression suddenly changed from angry to bitter, and the missionaries in front of him also had angry eyes.

Of course they knew that a thousand Holy Kingdom Knights troops were wiped out in Northwind Province. Only Damon Legion Commander escaped alone and recovered after being healed by the Holy Light.

At the same time, they were also panicked. The empire was so decisive that it killed an earl and noble noble.

This made them feel that missionary work in the empire was extremely difficult.

For a moment, the room fell silent.

Seeing that these missionaries had no reaction, Ryan felt a little helpless. He looked at the leader Archbishop and said:

"But you also know that I am the heir of the Clayton Family. Maybe Marquis of Northwind doesn't dare to easily frame me for an unfounded crime."

"But in this case, the risk I have to take is huge..."

Adriana didn't have any dealings with nobles, so he gradually came to his senses after hearing these words.

As long as Baron Ryan is given some benefit, it's not impossible.

She took out her most precious thing, a book woven from thick snow-white paper. It had a similar logo to the yellowed book that spreads light that Ryan got before.

It's the Sun above everyone's head.

But under the Sun, the meanings of those runes are different.

"When the night comes, Dawn is destined to appear, and the light of the Lord will Dispel envelope the darkness of all things."

Ryan said it subconsciously. At this moment, he found that the eyes of several missionaries in front of him, including Archbishop, became extremely intense.

"Baron Ryan, you actually know the meaning?"

What the hell? Isn't it obvious that everyone can understand it when they see it?

It doesn't make sense. He had also shown the book God of Light to others before. It was just Soul Magic. Everyone could understand it.

"Only those favored by our Lord can understand the meaning of Divine Language."

"Among the Church, the most devout believers need to recite the name of our Lord and go through three days and three nights before they can grow from monks to missionaries."

"Divine Language contains the glory of the Lord."

Ryan understands, within the Church, if you want to change from a monk un status to a missionary status, you must rely on yourself to understand the meaning of this rune.

This is a blessing that allows the believer's body to be born and release the power of Divine Art.

To put it simply, this sentence is the beginning of the Church's extraordinary path.

This book contains divinity.
