Chapter 1006 (1/2)
At the same time, the uproar shook in the church hall, so that the Byrne knights in charge of maintaining order forgot to maintain silence.
Because they were stunned, too.
When almost all the participants entered the hall, they basically guessed the purpose of the ceremony, and even learned a lot about the ”long eared elf” in private.
The assassination night of red blood castle is no secret, and the knights who went to eboden with Duke Byrne and the wizards who withdrew together also spread the ”truth” of the war to many people's ears.
Therefore, many people, especially the count of the thirteen leaders and the Byrne knights, have enough psychological preparation for what Loren has to do, do not reject it at all, and even have some vague expectations.
Follow the steps of heroes and let every hall and Tavern burning fireplace preach their own stories and ballads, at least part of the legend... This has great attraction to the bain people, especially the bain nobles.
In the Byrne tradition, the obligation of knights or the thirteen barons of Byrne to the Duke is not free, let alone unlimited, and even subject to the supervision and control of the round table parliament; Loren's request now is obviously to get rid of these and make all Byrne's knights unconditionally loyal to themselves.
However, for the ”Knight dream”, they did not resist their absolute loyalty to Duke Byrne, even beyond the loyalty of the relationship between ”Lord and knight”, and devoted everything to Duke Byrne's dream and great cause.
In a sense, we have to thank the ”black Duke” - if he hadn't done such a great cause to make Byrne the Savior of the Empire, almost completely above the de saleon family, it's not easy for Loren to convince Byrne.
In the uproar hall, only the black haired wizard and Charlotte were still calm and looked at the direction of the voice without expression.
”Lord hilwick, what do you mean?”
The first person to stand up and question was not the bain people, not even one of the thirteen earls, but the messenger sent by the heavenly palace, the former chief justice Victor Seuss. His expression was distorted by his anger.
As the messenger sent to Byrne to ”congratulate”, Victor, who had dealt with Loren in the Royal trial, had no idea of congratulation, but he could also understand emperor Connor's attitude of valuing his ability but distrusting him, so he agreed.
Victor's purpose was to test the true attitude of Byrne and Loren towards the Empire and to find out the real thoughts of the first Duchy of the Empire. He was not here to provoke things - that's why hilvik's sudden speech made him so angry. The Holy Cross Church represented by the other party may ”drag the heavenly palace into the water”.
Of course, what made him more angry was that the other party did it without consulting himself: ”can the deacons and representatives of the Holy Cross be eager to show their authority because they are in the church?”
”The authority of the Holy Cross is beyond doubt, and I don't need to show it!”
Hilwick, who was a little timid, resisted his fear of the former cabinet and went back. He knew that since he spoke, he would never turn back:
”But as the representative of the Holy Cross on earth, when I need to contribute, I should still stand up and uphold justice for the kingdom of the Holy Cross!”
In the face of hilwick, who was ”righteous and strict”, Victor Hughes felt more and more evil, but before he could refute it, he was robbed by another voice:
”May I ask the representative of the Holy Cross on earth, what justice do you want to support?”
Charlotte, whose face was as cold as frost, turned around and first raised her hand to stop the frowning Earl of anger castle, Eckert, and stabbed her fierce eyes at each other like a sharp sword:
”Is there anything disrespectful to the Holy Cross in our Duke's remarks just now? If so, I apologize to you in the name of a member of the Turin family.”
As the voice fell, the surrounding Byrne knights and envoys and guests all over the world turned their eyes to hilwick, puzzled and surprised, occupying the absolute majority.
Only the former chief justice Victor had a bad feeling and tried his best to restrain his impulsive emotions, because he suddenly saw the black haired wizard on the stage without expression and silent as if he had heard nothing.
Is he
”I pay tribute to you for your humility as a servant of the Holy Cross.” hilwick bowed generously, even if he knew that the countess was by no means a ”devout believer”:
”But this is by no means that Lord Loren Turin himself is disrespectful to the Holy Cross, let alone that I want to deny the achievements he has done and the great achievements he has accomplished under the protection of the Holy Cross.”
”But no matter how great a man's achievements are, he can't cover up his sin, because sin is sin.” hilwick said in a deep voice:
”The sin of Lord Loren Turin is that he tries to seize the supreme power of the Principality of Byrne and become the only master of this great country as a 'savior' and as if he were a 'black Duke'.”
”The reason why I object is that he has no such qualification!”
Before he finished, the angry uproar broke out in the hall.
The Byrne Knights finally understood that the Deacon and messenger of the Holy Cross Church were questioning and denying the legitimacy of Loren as the Duke of Byrne.
”What does that mean?!”
”What does the Holy Cross want?”
”Guard, where's the guard? Drag the madman out!”
”Are you crazy? Are you going to drag a servant of the holy cross out of the church?”
”Didn't you hear what he just said? I think you're crazy!”
The angry flame was burning in the hall, and the guests were as stunned as victor Seuss - what does the church want to do? Do they still think the relationship between Byrne church and Holy Cross Church is too good?
Dang -!!!!
A loud noise briefly stopped the growing chaotic quarrel.
”Enough --!”
Angert, the Earl of the Rock Castle, pulled out his sword and hit it on the ground like a battle axe; He raised his angry eyes and stared at sylvik:
”What do you mean, deacon of the church? Are you questioning the tradition of Byrne and the illegality of the election of the round table?”
”I have no such idea.”
Hilwick shook his head decisively and denied: ”as a servant of the Holy Cross, I respect the tradition of Byrne and the most supreme round table parliament that represents this tradition.”
