Chapter 980: Will of god (4)

When this voice rang out, everyone turned to look in the direction that this voice came from. To our surprise, there was a group that was walking over in the robes of the clergy, but we didn't recognize them at all.

The one who was leading them was a kind looking old man and it was clear that he was the one who had spoken. After he spoke, he came forward to look at the other priests and nuns who were standing there in a daze.

The way that he looked at them was filled with disdain.

Once he was done looking at them, he gave a nod to one of the cloaked figures behind him and said, "Take these idiots away. Make sure that those in charge of the Zeno Religion understand what these idiots have done."

The cloaked figure nodded before taking off the cloak.

Everyone was shocked to see this cloaked figure after he took off his cloak because he was wearing a magnificent set of armour. This was pure white armour that clearly wasn't normal

armour.

This seemed like armour that only those knights of the highest rank could own.

It wasn't just this single knight who came forward, but also the other cloaked figures who took off their cloaks to come forward. It was a group of knights that suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

All of them came forward to surround the priests and nuns, but the priests and nuns wouldn't go that easily.

"Don't you dare touch us! Do you know who you're offending!?" The priest that took over for the head priest shouted this.

However, the knights didn't seem worried at all as they continued to surround this group. They even pulled out their weapons to show that they weren't playing at all.

The priests and nuns all took a step back, but there was nowhere for them to go since they were surrounded by the knights. All they could do was huddle up and pull out some staffs as if they wanted to protect themselves.

It was just too bad that the knights were well trained and easily disarmed them.

In no time at all, the group of priests and nuns were all subdued by the knights and taken away.

I couldn't help being surprised since I never thought that someone would show up and do something like this, but they didn't seem to have any ill intentions. At the same time, anyone that could show up with knights of this level clearly wasn't anyone normal.

After the priests and nuns had been taken care of, the kind looking old man turned to look at me with a smile on his face.

I could tell that this smile wasn't actually directed at me, but rather at the mark that was on my hand.

It seemed that he was quite pleased to see this mark on my hand.

There was no mistaking that he recognized this mark and it even seemed that he was quite familiar with this mark with the way that he was looking at it.

After looking at it for a bit, the kind looking old man suddenly said, "It truly is the will of the gods that we have met you. I would like to introduce myself, your majesty, if you do not mind."

This was completely different from how the head priest of the Zeno Religion acted.

Since it didn't seem like he had any ill intentions, I gave a simple nod in response to see what his plans were.

The kind looking old man said with a smile, "I am the pope of the Solista Religion." "Huh?" The prime minister and I were both shocked to hear this.

After all, there wasn't anyone in this world that didn't recognize the Solista Religion. The Solista Religion was also the religion that the priest in my town came from. Even though the Zeno Religion had many followers among the humans, there were more followers of the Solista Religion since their followers weren't just humans. Solista was a god that was worshipped by many different races, so there were far more followers than the Zeno Religion.

The Solista Religion was considered one of the top three religions in the Holy Empire, so the power that they controlled wasn't weak. At the same time, the pope of said Solista Religion should be considered one of the most influential people in the Holy Empire.

Even if he wasn't exactly on the same level as the Merman King in terms of title, the pope could be considered to have the same level of power.

After introducing himself, the pope suddenly came forward towards me.

That put me in an awkward position since I couldn't exactly just step away because that would surely offend the pope. So the only thing that I could do was stand there and wait to see what he wanted to do.

The pope didn't mind this at all as he came forward to take my hand.

He brought my hand up in front of his face and looked at the mark that was glowing on the back of my hand carefully.

I was surprised to see that that mark was still glowing after the priests of the Zeno Religion had been struck by the divine punishment. But when I looked at it closely, I found that it was a different glow.

There wasn't the same heat coming from my hand, but rather it seemed like this glow was from the resonance of the pope's holy power. There was this holy energy that was around the pope's hand as he held my hand which created this resonance effect.

After looking at this mark on my hand for a bit, the pope suddenly lowered his head and said, "This truly is the will of the gods to deliver one with the Mark of God at a time like this."

The rest of his group who had been silently standing there suddenly fell to their knees and started praying.

The awkward thing was that they were all praying in my direction, as if they were praying to

me...
