Chapter Thirty-Five: The Candidate of the Supreme Pope
The British Puritan organization is like a string instrument of an age-old age.
In addition to the "owner", this instrument also has "manager".
To use the violin as a metaphor, even the most excellent violin, as long as it is not used for a while, the strings will relax and the resonance room will become old, making the sound no longer beautiful.
Lola Stuart's job is to play on behalf of the master and keep the violin in perfect condition.
But, just like the relationship between the Canterbury Monastery and St. George's Cathedral, now the nominal and substantial position has been reversed, and the right power is in her hands.
——Yes, just like the manifestation of the process of changing importance of St. George’s Cathedral.
Although it is called the Great Church, St. George's Great Church is actually just one of the many churches located in central London. Although the church building is not small, it can be said to be a world of difference compared to world-renowned tourist attractions such as Westminster Temple and St. Paul's Cathedral.
Of course, compared with the Canterbury Monastery, the founding place of the Puritan Church in England, it is also incomparable.
It is only because it condenses cruel history such as witch hunting, religious judgment, and even the dark holy land that once burned the famous Joan of Arc, in France, that it is truly a name.
But in fact, in London, there are many buildings named "St. George". In addition to churches, there are also department stores, restaurants, clothing stores and schools, etc. There are probably dozens of them in the downtown area alone.
Although not as good as Rome, there are as many churches in London as parks.
Not only that, even the full name "St. George's Cathedral" may have more than ten churches. The close relationship between "St. George" and the British can be seen even from the British flag.
The so-called St. George's Cathedral was originally just a base for the "necessary evil church" and was just an external organization of the church.
Within the huge British Puritan organization, the status of the necessary evil churches is quite low and the role they play is not very glorious.
But then, things changed unexpectedly.
The church's peripheral organizations that silently contributed countless achievements gradually accumulated trust and real power, and gradually became the mainstay. Until now, the heart of the British Puritanism on the surface is still the Canterbury Monastery.
But the decision-making power in its core has been completely transferred to St. George's Cathedral.
This cathedral, a little far from the center of London, has now become the core institution that governs the religion of the great British Puritanism. In addition to Lola Stuart, the person who created such a situation.
——Are there any other suspects?
...
...
"Haha... I'm so petty. Are you planning to get the place for your believers? Why should you stick to this trivial matter as your identity?"
I heard the boy opposite him seem to be talking to himself, and he wanted to slowly reveal his secrets, the unlucky past.
The expression on the most bishop's delicate face could no longer be stopped. She quickly interrupted, and seemed to be glaring at the man opposite with a dissatisfaction expression.
"Well, I just sent out my feelings. To be honest, although I wanted to let the little black cat grow up well, her personality and experience are destined, and it is impossible to reach your level."
Mu Xiu withdrew his gaze, then picked up the ice cream in front of him and dug a spoonful of it, and said calmly.
His eyes looked at the girl opposite him with some strange emotion that was not concealed at all, and he praised and appreciated it, but it was not the type of possessiveness, but the eyes that were as happy as the hunter.
Simply put, the big director met the best actor, the big singer found the best lyricist... He also felt like a big boss who just started a business, and felt that he had seen the talents he needed the most.
After all, people like Lola Stuart, in Mushu's eyes now, are simply ssr-quality five-star character cards.
Unfortunately, the other party has joined other companies, and through years of hard work, he has used his own scheming and skills to control the entire British Puritan organization step by step.
Of course, Mu Xiu didn't think this was a problem. At most, his side was not as attractive as the other party at the beginning.
So he was not polite. After blinking his eyes, he asked for it with a look of course: "My missionary career has just started recently, but I have encountered some obstacles... Is Miss Lola interested in coming and helping me?"
“…”
“…”
"I'm so sorry, thank you for your kindness... But I don't have such plans for the time being-"
Maybe I didn't expect that the other party came to say such words. The expression on the face of the Supreme Bishop of the British Puritan seemed to be found to have been found to have buttoned the shirt wrongly. At first, he was stunned for a moment, and then his movements stopped completely.
Then her whole face turned red, she looked away and whispered, politely rejecting the other party's proposal that was not only inexplicable but also whimsical.
Mu Xiu nodded in a clear way: "I understand, that is to say, "for the time being" do you have such a plan?"
His pronunciation on a certain word is quite clear, and it seems self-evident what kind of subtle meaning he wants to express.
"Wait, wait, that, maybe there is no such plan in the future..." Lola's expression was a little stiff. She seemed to be a little panicked and waved her hands to add.
Having said that, shouldn’t this be a more polite statement? Can’t this person understand human language art?
It is precisely because he knows what kind of existence the other party is, perhaps the incarnation of the touch of God, that the largest bishop of the British Puritanism is so polite.
Even if the other party is a strange god, it is not an existence that he can treat rudely. Moreover, the God believed in by the Cross Church has delivered a new covenant, which is enough to explain everything-
This is a God other than God.
No matter what, the power it possesses is that it can truly match the Creator. At least it can make the Lord who should be supreme and unique.
To be honest, Lola was indeed quite curious about such a legendary existence, but after meeting now... she felt that it seemed completely different from the image of the dominant person who was high and indifferent to sentient beings in her imagination.
Perhaps it is because this is the incarnation of the touch of God?
But no matter what, it is good. At least Lola feels that it is much easier to face the incarnation of a human God than to face the real God. This is why she is not as restrained as before now.
——Because after realizing the other person's nature, she immediately adjusted her attitude.
This is also why Mu Xiu is so interested in her, because the black cat really can never reach the level of Lola.
After all, a person who has the strength to command a huge organization, uses any means to do anything for the interests of the organization, is cruel and ruthless, and can control various "value scales" such as human feelings, rationality, interests, and ethics in the palm of his hand.
But he actually has the affinity that can naturally integrate into the surroundings, and will not become alienated from others because of the Supreme Bishop. He can quarrel with anyone, speak ill of each other, riot, and sometimes cry...
Needless to say, Mu Xiu can say with certainty that this is definitely an excellent candidate for being the Supreme Pope.
So, after hearing the words of rejection, he narrowed his eyes slightly, but his frown immediately stretched out again and said in a relaxed tone:
"Miss Lola, don't refuse so quickly. I am quite sincere... As the actual leader of the British Puritanism, although his position in the whole world is supreme, are you satisfied just this?"
The biggest bishop of the 18-year-old girl blinked, sighed helplessly, and then said in a very concise and powerful way:
"You joked, I'm just a little bishop. Everything I did was just for the faith of my Lord, not..."
For some reason, she looked at the other party's clear dark eyes staring at her, and couldn't help but speak softly, as if she was guilty.
Mu Xiu said leisurely: "Stay on, I'm very interested."
“…”
“…”
"Anyway... that's it...ah hahaha..." Lola's voice trembled slightly, sweat was flowing on her cheeks, and her eyes wandered around.
"Do you know, I control all cause and effect, and everything in the world can be explained by direct or indirect causal relationships, whether tangible or abstract..."
Mu Xiumo glanced at her silently and said softly.
"It does not mean that if a person is killed, he will die." Such an intuitive phenomenon, such as "for some reason," joining a religious organization, has a complete causal relationship..."
Because of his devout faith, he joined the Puritan Church in England and prepared to devote his life to the supreme and unique Lord—
Unfortunately, Mu Xiu was in charge of all the cause and effect, but he was unable to find such a record from it. In other words, whether Lola really has faith is also worth discussing.
"Woo... don't say it..."
"Okay, let's not talk about whether your faith is pious or even whether there is any faith." Mu Xiu nodded, and then asked with some curiosity: "Can I ask a question?"
"Why be so reserved, say it."
Perhaps seeing the hope of getting rid of that awkward situation, Lola quickly sat upright and replied indifferently, using a tone that was singing like a noble lady.
After thinking about a lot of doubts, Mu Xiu finally asked: "Why do your Japanese sound so stupid?"
"Ah...Huh...? Very... It's strange? Isn't "Japanese" exactly like this?"
Lola's elegant and dignified figure suddenly froze, which seemed to be an even more fatal question?
"Yes, to be honest, your Japanese language is very strange, or you treat us all as "little fools"..." Mu Xiuli nodded for granted: "Although this unique tone is enough for you to like, what is the situation?"
"Ah...Woo... My Japanese is the result of learning from multiple sources of literature and TV programs. I have asked a real Japanese to guide you..."
Although the morning shop streets are around and office workers in suits are hurried by, they may not understand what they say, Lola feels that the noise around her has turned into laughter that comes to her.
"Uh, who are you calling the "real Japanese"?"
"That...that meow named Toriko Toriko..."
"Sorry, you may have misunderstood something. He is just a dangerous person who makes his fucking sister wear maid outfits with lust. He is just an ordinary pervert... Asia is not so wonderful."
Mu Xiu deliberately looked at her with regretful eyes, shook his head and sighed.
"It's actually...this is happening! Oops... Then I should correct my wrong Japanese quickly!"
The Archbishop, who is extremely high in the world, first explained at a loss, but the more he spoke, the more he became chaotic he became.
"No, I won't be bothered - why do I have to spend more time on the inconvenient language of a small country in the extreme east!?"
Finally, crystal liquid accumulated in the corners of her eyes and she screamed like a self-deprecating.
The doves resting on the road not far away were all frightened.
