Boom, boom, boom.
"Come in."
"Store manager, someone is looking for you." Nora poked his little head into the study, "It seems to be someone from Church of the Goddess of Harvest tang."
Ron had just read Webster's letter when he heard people from the church coming to him. He was stunned for a moment, then immediately stood up. "Here he comes."
Go downstairs.
Ron I immediately saw two figures.
One of them is none other than Bishop Maurice.
But looking at the position, Maurice is always standing behind a man with white hair and beard, obviously leading the person in front.
Church of the Goddess of Harvest tang's top brass?
Ron was confused in his heart and stepped forward with a smile on his face, "Bishop Maurice."
"Your Highness Ron." Maurice saluted and immediately introduced, "This is Archbishop Ulysses of Imperial Capital's main church."
Ouch!?
Ron was startled, raised his brows, and immediately drew an ear of rice symbol on his chest. "I've seen the Archbishop."
The archbishop of one of the three major sects of the Human Empire, the first person of Church of the Goddess of Harvest, a legendary wood magician, and one of the deputy ministers of the Ministry of Magic.
In short, the identity of Seventh Prince has more cards than Ron.
He originally thought that it would be fine if the Church of the Goddess of Harvest church awarded him an honorary bishop title, but it was nothing more than a false position.
As a result, the archbishop from far away Imperial Capital came to visit in person?
This is a legendary level boss...
"Your Highness Ron." Ulysses saluted and asked, "When I come here this time, I need to discuss some things with you. Can we find a place to chat?"
Of course Ron will not refuse. "Come to the living room on the second floor."
"Archbishop, I'll wait for you on the carriage." Maurice exited the store and did not follow him to the second floor.
Ron and Ulysses are sitting opposite each other on the sofa in the living room.
"Your Highness was assassinated last night. Is he feeling well?"
"Well, thanks to the goddess's blessing, I was unscathed."
"This is a dereliction of duty on the part of the church, which failed to send someone to protect His Highness at the first time." Ulysses apologized sincerely, "I hope Your Highness can stay with me temporarily so that I can personally guarantee His Highness's safety."
What?
Did I hear it correctly?
The legendary boss personally begged me to stay in order to protect me?
Because of what happened to Webster, Ron is now naturally wary of unfamiliar legendary figures and immediately declined. "The Archbishop is overly worried. After what happened last night, no assassins should dare to kill me for the time being."
Although there is a legendary boss protecting me, it's quite cool to think about it.
But he didn't know the other party's true purpose, so he would refuse if he could.
If there is a real danger lurking, the system should release temporary tasks in advance so that he can be prepared.
Although he didn't want to rely too much on the system's ability, compared to having a legendary level around him, the unruly system was more cute.
"It doesn't matter. If His Highness doesn't want me to stay in this shop, I can naturally find a place nearby to stay temporarily and ensure His Highness's safety at all times." Ulysses said stubbornly.
Ron As soon as I heard it, my tooth hurt immediately.
Are all legendary bosses so idle?
Why don't you force yourself on someone if they don't want you?
But he couldn't refuse.
After all, they don't occupy your territory, they just find a place to live nearby.
Forget it... maybe this archbishop is really just kind-hearted and worried about the safety of his beloved one...
"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will only stay at Chaos City for about half a month." Ulysses also saw Ron's resistance and immediately added, "When the ceremony is over, I will naturally return to Imperial Capital."
"Sacrificial ceremony?" Ron was curious.
"You have been chosen by the goddess as a favored one. Naturally, the church needs to hold a sacrificial ceremony for you to officially announce your identity to the outside world."
Ron suddenly said, "Honorary Bishop?"
"No." Ulysses smiled and shook his head, "It's Goddess's Representative."
"Goddess... agent?" Ron was stunned.
I still have the Goddess Reaper...
"The honorary bishop is just a false position. Apart from having an additional title, you have no other value." Ulysses said, "But Goddess's Representative is different."
"Do you have real power?" Ron was curious, "But I don't need it..."
"The church has always set up a hidden monastery to recruit children with Wood Magic talents from all over the country and give them the right to learn magic." Ulysses slowly explained.
"Among them, after men's magical realm reaches a high level, they will be assigned to take up positions in various churches, preach doctrines, and recruit believers."
"Women will be uniformly assigned to the nunnery. Those with lower realms will be responsible for doing some chores in the church. Those with higher realms will spend most of their time meditating. Only when there is a famine, they will go to the disaster area to comfort the victims."
"And Goddess's Representative has the right to command the nunnery. His position is the same as that of the bishop of the church in various places, but his real power is greater."
"Because the bishops of churches in various places can only be in charge of one place, but Goddess's Representative can lead the nunneries in various parts of the empire. Only the archbishop has the right to intervene."
Ulysses saw the surprised expression on Ron's face, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said with unknown meaning, "Your Highness Ron, the nunnery is a very strong team, and there are several Tier Six magicians in it. As long as it does not go against the interests of Church of the Goddess of Harvest, you can order them to do anything."
Ron's eyes twitched.
anything...
Nuns cannot get married, Ron knows this very well.
So the archbishop obviously didn't mean "that".
Could he be hinting that he would seize the legitimate son? Ron secretly guessed in his mind.
After all, Church of the Goddess of Harvest's status in the empire has always been lower than that of the other two sects, and its influence at the aristocratic level is very small.
Therefore, nowadays, it is rare to find a favored person with direct lineage from the royal family. Church of the Goddess of Harvest will of course give rise to many ideas.
But... he has no interest in the throne at all...
Ron felt helpless and was about to refuse, but immediately stopped talking.
After all, the other party is a legendary boss, and what he said just now did not reveal any intention of letting him seize the legitimate son. It was just a wild guess on his part.
Even if the guess is correct, since the other party didn't say it clearly, he can just pretend not to know. There is no need to expose it in person.
And... he was quite attracted to that nunnery.
Of course it's not the bodies of the nuns.
But it has other uses.
He still had a headache last night. He didn't have enough Cultivation Space. If he planted Everchanging Radish outside, the leaves would definitely grow slower after being harvested.
It's not like he can cast Plant Growth Technique on hundreds of Everchanging Radish all day long.
It is unrealistic to hire a magician. After all, a magician has a noble status and would not do such a thing.
But the convent is different.
The nuns inside are all proficient magicians in Wood Magic, and they all obey the orders of Goddess's Representative.
The Archbishop has said that we can let them do anything.
anything...
Ron's eyes rolled.
Does farming count?
