No one expected that the first to rise up and draw their sword against the Pale God Norton would be none other than the Pale God's old enemy.
It must be said that while the Church may not be very humane when there is no darkness, it is truly righteous when there is darkness!
Following the pronouncement of the verdict on the unification of the Pale God by the Pale God by the Pale Holy See, which is located within the Kaimen Empire but operates independently.
The newly appointed Pope Nicholas then followed suit by issuing a Holy See bounty and a 'decree for sinners'.
Following a trial by the Holy See's Inquisition, Pale God Norton was convicted of over 1,800 crimes, including murdering the Pope, insulting God, impurity, believing in the devil, and deceiving people. The Holy See declared him an "unclean devil, an enemy of all servants!" ( The Church believes that all living beings are God's servants, so "enemy of all servants" means the enemy of all things.)
The newly appointed Pope Nicholas issued a warrant for the arrest of his troops in the Southern Continent!
He held numerous sentencing sermons, calling on all countries in the Southern Continent to heed the judgment of the Church, immediately send troops to arrest and exterminate this pale offspring, and burn this filthy and unclean thing to death in the holiness of God!
Subsequently, His Majesty Nicholas issued a statement criticizing Emperor Miles XIII of the Aodelan Empire for recognizing a traitor as his father and bestowing upon the title of the deceitful Pale God Norton the title of the Supreme Ruler. He argued that this was a grave mistake that led to the downfall of the nation and a heinous crime of Betrayal!
If the Pale God's decree could cause a stir in the Southern Continent —whether it was mocking his return to the old ways or restoring the old order, it would certainly create a huge uproar—then the sudden appearance of the new Pope Nicholas and his so-called judgment is truly laughable.
Leaving aside the trial of Miles XIII and the Pale God, simply removing the Church from the name of the Holy See for disobeying Holy See decrees is already a laughing stock.
If the Pale God wanted to restore the old order, then His Majesty Nicholas was living entirely in the old era!
They even expelled him from the papacy and issued an arrest warrant? Do they really think this is still the era of the ancient Papal State in power?
The Holy See's decree was met with thunderous ridicule from various countries.
Not only that, but royal families and Church in various countries all treat the decrees of the Holy See as a joke, and the arrest warrant for the Pale God is even more of a joke.
The Kaimen Empire even sent people to restrict exports to the Holy See, but in less than two months, Nicholas II changed his mind and once again became a laughing stock of the entire Southern Continent.
With the arrival of autumn, the first national Mass of the Aodelan Empire was held as scheduled.
The Pale God wielded real power, though not much, and it depended on Miles XIII's opinion. But regardless, Miles XIII didn't take a mere biannual low-cost Mass seriously.
Thus, the Mass of the Church of the Aodelan Empire was held as scheduled. Although the participation of people in various cities was not high, the food distribution still attracted a number of poor people.
The people in the city disdained to eat the food offered by the Church, but it was a perfect opportunity for them to fill their stomachs, so Mass proceeded as scheduled.
"Is this Pale God trying to win people's hearts? Just like the Papal State did when they were destroyed and reborn in history?" Emperor Kairi Kaimen of the Kaimen Empire sat on a leather sofa, holding a wine glass and sipping it quietly, but his eyes were fixed on George XV (Emperor of the Madrid Empire, husband of Queen Bella ) who was emitting a slight stench.
George XV was dressed in classic court attire, with silver finger guards on all nine fingers of his hands, and a velvet neck warmer that covered the lower half of his face.
His perfume was strong, but it also carried a stench like rotting flesh, making one want to vomit.
Unfortunately, after Bella contracted the disease of the rich, the first person she infected was her husband, George XV.
Now, several years later, George's fingers are not only ulcerated, but his chin lymph nodes and even his nose have begun to rot. It is truly painful, disgusting, cruel, and torturous.
However, Bella was a member of the royal family of the Aodelan Empire and the sister of Miles XIII, so even in his miserable state, he still had to endure it and couldn't even drag that scoundrel out and kill him!
Smelling the stench permeating the air, a deep sense of dread flashed in Kaimen XVI's eyes, and he involuntarily shifted his body slightly to the side to avoid any contact with his ailing relative.
Following the emergence of syphilis, a disease once known as the "disease of the rich" a few years ago, royal families around the world have fallen victim to it in just a few years. Now, it has spread from royalty to the poor, and patients with red spots on their bodies can be seen everywhere.
Silversmiths have now become part of the wealthy class in the Southern Continent, which gives you an idea of how prevalent this disease is.
This bizarre disease is not only incurable, but it also spreads exceptionally quickly. High-ranking officials in various countries regard it as an unclean disease, while the lower classes are quite happy to contract it, because they feel that they have contracted a disease that only the rich can get, which is extremely abstract.
Even so, the top leaders of various countries still don't seem to care much and continue to enjoy themselves to the fullest.
The main reason is that Vampire really do exist in this world. Nowadays, when wealthy people find out they have been infected with syphilis, they will immediately find Vampire and transform themselves into one of the Vampire in order to fight against the infection.
The main reason why George XV has not turned into Vampire so far is that he is an emperor, and he dares not and cannot so easily transform himself into a Vampire race that values rank.
"It doesn't seem like it. In the past, when the Papal State did this, the Pope would personally come to win people's hearts. But Norton did it by force throughout, and didn't even show his face. He didn't try to win people's hearts at all."
Besides, even if he manages to win people's hearts, what then? The times are completely different now!
George XV dismissed him with disdain. Although they had all met with the Pale God upon their arrival in the Aodelan Empire, he was ultimately just an individual; what did it matter how divine he might be?
Miles XIII looked at the documents in his hand, ignoring the conversation between the two.
It wasn't until much later that Miles XIII finally placed the documents he was holding on the table.
"There's no need to worry about that Pale God. The psychology expert I hired has done some profiling of his thoughts. This Pale God doesn't show a high level of desire for power. Although he does have a fairly strong unknown desire, this desire is not above power."
Power is merely a requirement for achieving his goals; if he is given the power he desires, then he is, to a certain extent, entirely harmless.
This is also the main reason why the Pale God has been so secure in my Aodelan Empire Palace for so many years.
In comparison, his Vampire subordinate named Abraham was more power-hungry, but he had many weaknesses, so there was no need to fear him.
Compared to them, the current distribution of rights is of paramount importance.
The Pale God has resided in my Aodelan Empire for many years now, and to this day, the other nations are still dragging their feet on matters of interest, using endless negotiations to delay the final decision, which is truly frustrating!
That Pale God has long enjoyed the power of my Aodelan Empire Aodelan Empire and is recognized as one of my people. Abraham has been appointed by me as a regional governor, controlling three powers and governing the local area. Now all arrangements are in place.
Since the Holy Boya Empire and the Holy Noah Empire have been unable to make up their minds, there is no need to negotiate anymore, it is time to reorganize the world."
Miles XIII's gaze was gloomy, his ruthlessness evident as he looked at the documents on the table.
This was actually a last resort for him.
His initial purpose in welcoming the Pale God was to use the Pale God's intimidation to gain a better share of the spoils.
However, several years have passed, and in each round of negotiations, certain countries have been unable to fully complete the division of interests due to various issues, thus delaying the process until now. Meanwhile, various countries have united to target these three nations at sea, hindering their rapid development.
Such shameless tactics had long since disgusted and disgusted Miles XIII.
Now that the harmless nature of the Pale God has been fully confirmed and some measures have been deployed, it is time to truly divide the long-standing interests.
"Alright! Then the friction between the regions can begin, in the name of that Pale God, to stir up trouble and truly involve that Pale God in this battle between nations!"
Both Kaimen XVI and George XV sat up straight.
Indeed, the plot began the moment the Pale God was brought into the palace of the Aodelan Empire.
Using the name of the Pale God to wreak havoc, they lured the Vampire Progenitor Pale God, into wars between nations, thereby drawing supernatural powers into their ranks.
