Chapter 320
Hayes wasn't aware hohen he had left the Lion city There was this poker face expression on his face but inside he was facing a great struggle He was the only one aware how fierce the inner struggle ithin his heart He didn't confront or had battle with Uther but his body was tired He was tired ue had appeared because of theto choose? Faith or Greed? Actually, this concern about the return of Uther was a big probleht about the possibility of Uther's return but not listening to the current doctrines of the Church In fact, some core factions within the Church had already prepared for this situation in advance In fact, there were rare members in the top who believed that Uther would ever return back However, they never tried to conceal the news about Uther's return The reason behind this etting a fake Uther and using him as a puppet Unexpectedly, Uther was back and he was far beyond the expectations that Hayes was thinking of
It was a serious matter He must return to the Church and report the situation to the Pope He couldn't call the shots at the this moment Only the Pope could decide about the future of this case
“That's right… Why I'm concerned or worried about this? Let the Pope worry” Hayes murmured
Nevertheless, Hayes understood that there was this contradiction that he couldn't get rid of
“But…if Pope orders the assassination of Uther What I' to do then?” Hayes couldn't help but think about consequenves of this news
He was chosen to be a paladin since young age At the ti a Paladin was thea Paladin was norant youth back then He and his fellow paladins at the tireat return of Uther His mind was very simply back then and he remember the oath he had taken in front of the tall statue of Uther
“Uther! Couard!”
He remembered all the others ere chosen to be paladins Those siiant statue of Uther with utmost devotion
But ti in thos stories about Uther's return but regarded them simple fairy tales for kids
Hayes wasn't like himself but like a zombie by the time he returned to Robert's tent in the ca his soul
“Hayes! Why are you back so fast? Did you meet the Uther who your Church worshi+ps to much?” Robert was surprised when he saw Hayes return so soon He believed Hayes would return quite late
Hayes frowned: “Fake! It is ridiculous to think that Uther would return back to this God forgotten place instead of the Church!”
Robert laughed when he heard Hayes's reply: “It's quite nor to put up false ancient heroes of the orcs but these idiots are way too si their heroes and deities! It is no wonder that they are at the doorsteps of extinction and perishment! Gods? Who cares? Power! Power is the key! You are the God if you have the power!”
