Chapter 322: He Is Scary (2/2)
Death of [God’s Favorite Children] wasn’t rare. In fact, the current Pope Sepp Blatt only got where he was by stepping on the corpses of more than a dozen [God’s Favorite Children].
On the continent that was ruled by the Law of the Jungle, Balesi felt like it was normal for Kaka to use his power and influential to kill a potential future competitor.
“Teacher, you are too murderous.” Kaka sighed as he shook his head.
Balesi sighed as well.
“Your Highness, you are just too kind and naïve. You have been traveling around the continent, and you have seen all kinds of bloodiness and ugliness of this world. However, you still refuse to believe that the world is cruel. Put that aside…… Your Highness, you have to remember that you are one of the brightest [God’s Favorite Children]. Your fate had been determined at the time of your birth, and kindness and sympathy can not help you. You can only be relieved after your sit on that throne.”
Kaka only smiled; he did say anything back.
Balesi could only sigh again; he didn’t continue talking as well.
This kind of conversations occurred numerous times in the last few years.
Although Balesi had never convinced this [God’s Favorite Child], he would never give up on it.
As long as there was the opportunity, Balesi would try to tell Kaka about his fifty-years of life experience and the cruelness of the internal conflicts of the Holy Church. He believed that he was right. A [God’s Favorite Child] who was too kind would never survive in the Holy Church which had numerous small but vicious groups, didn’t matter how powerful he or she was.
Balesi felt like he had to convince Kaka.
His fate was tightly tied together with Kaka’s fate when he became the first Robe-Robe Accompanying Priest to Kaka.
“Your Highness, please let me make the decision this time. This woman named Angela is too important for your future. I will get her for you by all means.” As if he made a decision, Balesi told Kaka seriously.
“Don’t offend the king of Chambord.” Kaka looked at the stubborn elder in front of him and said: “He is scary, and he will become even scarier in the future.”
“That is why we need to finish it right now.” Balesi wasn’t willing to back off.
As Kaka was about to say something, his face changed color. Balesi who was sitting in front of him also was shocked.
Before the two of them could say anything, a light buzzing noise sounded. A thin and short black sword had pierced through the silver magic carriage and appeared in front of Balesi instantly. With a dash of chilly light, it went at Balesi’ throat.
Assassin!
This was an unanticipated change!
No one thought that there would be a person who dared to assassinate key figures of the Holy Church. Also, no one thought that the assassin could get into the silver magic carriage and carry out the assassination without anyone noticing.
It was fortunate that Balesi was powerful and had a good reaction speed.
In this critical moment, this white-haired priest was very calm. He sat still as a white flame appeared in his right hand. His Holy Power surged as he grabbed onto that assassination sword with his right hand.
“Die!” Balesi roared as he touched the sword.
As he was about to counterattack, his face changed color again; shock appeared in his eyes. His hand that was harder than steel under the empowerment of the Holy Power wasn’t able to grasp that black sword. His palm was cut open as he sensed severe pain.
This short sword was a very powerful weapon; it even could pierce through Holy Power!
Boom!
Under the threat of death, Balesi roared again. Terrifying Holy Power spilled out of his body like a tsunami, and the white flames filled the inside of the silver magic carriage. After the outburst of power, the silver magic carriage exploded into pieces!
The person who also flew away was that assassin.
Under the impact of the Holy Power, the cavaliers who were protecting the carriage were also blown away with their horses as they had little time to react; they looked like they were weak ants.
“Hahaha, I didn’t know that Mr. Priest is a Moon-Class Elite!”
A hoarse and crazy laughter sounded. That assassin who was blown away came back at Balesi even faster. Like a dangerous snake, the black sword broke through the white flames and stabbed at Balesi’s heart. This strike was so powerful and desperate that it made people feel like the assassin was willing to trade his own life away.
