She Is Not a Witch

Vol 2 Chapter 127: Scepter dropped

The galloping cavalry raised the sound of shaking horses hoof on the mountain road, and it was quickly noticed.

   The crowd crowded on the mountain path first became chaotic in the rear. They were driven by the knights, some rolled down into the weeds beside the mountain path, and some kept receding and shrinking, and the clamoring scene suddenly became much quieter.

   After all, when facing sharp swords and spear points, people can quickly calm down.

   This group of knights circumscribed from both sides of the mountain road, constantly driving and opening the way, the team moved forward, and finally arrived at the main entrance of the Ten Sword Palace, surrounding the crowd like words.

   "Quiet!"

   "Quiet!"

   As these knights continued to drink, the crowd in the court finally calmed down.

   "Lord Otis?"

   "Is he fair to us?"

They whispered, some thought that Otis was the righteous party and would uphold justice for them, some did not believe in Otis, and more people stood in place dubiously, following the man in heavy armor. Enter, and slowly separate.

   Otis led a dozen elites behind him and walked slowly to the center of the crowd.

   "Everyone, be quiet."

   "I know everyone is angry and uncomfortable."

   "But such behavior has disrupted the order of the holy mountain and will not bring good results."

   He calmed the angry crowd, but the effect was not good.

   "How can we trust you, can you get justice for us and try Sibis?" an extreme priest shouted.

   Odis looked at the hysterical pastor with his neck and face, and said calmly, "Everyone believes in me and the church. This matter will definitely give everyone an explanation."

  As the maintainer of the church order, Otis cannot allow the destruction of order.

   He continued to move forward, talking as he walked.

"The Palace of Ten Swords is the law and law enforcement agency in the church. It should solve everyone's problems. This is an important part of the order in the church. As the head of the Holy Spear Knights, I have an inescapable role in maintaining the stability of the church. Responsibility."

   Following his words, these people gradually settled down, staring at the mighty and tall knight with hopeful eyes.

   In this way, Odis calmed the crowd all the way, and then came to the front of the Palace of Ten Swords.

   The golden armor guards guarding the Gongmen Mountain Road still did not give way.

   It's not surprising to see this scene of Otis, and all he needs is this timing.

   Become its representative when public opinion is surging, and put pressure on the Ten Sword Palace. If the Ten Sword Palace still does not respond at this time, it is tantamount to blatantly violating the order and rules of the church.

   But if Ten Sword Palace responds, whether it is to agree to the wishes of the people or explain and shirk responsibilities, it will become a stepping stone for Otis's rise. Its momentum and prestige are naturally lower, and it will inevitably lose in the subsequent pope election.

   After this incident is over, Odis will also become famous in the church and become a hero in the hearts of many low-level monks.

   It would be great if... things really developed as he expected.

   The gate of the Ten Swords Palace opened with a creak, and an archbishop wearing a white robe with gold rims slowly walked out with the support of the people around.

   "Sibis!"

   "Is this person Sibis?"

   "Is it finally out."

   There was a commotion in the crowd, and then under the advancement of the golden armor guards, he took a step back and made a clearing.

   A staff member of the Ten Sword Palace brought a dozen brazier brackets from the palace, lit the wood and kerosene in the copper basin, and a burst of burnt smell permeated the cold night, and the reflections were extremely bright.

   "Good evening, fellow followers of angels and gods."

  Sibis's voice was not loud, but under the influence of his extraordinary ability, it spread throughout the mountains and the people below. Thousands of pairs of eyes stared at the top of the church under the light of fire.

   "I'm sorry, I just came out to respond to your requests at this time."

   "In the past few years, I have made a lot of mistakes, and many times I have not taken care of many hard-working colleagues. This is my dereliction of duty, and I am willing to be punished."

  His expression is real and religious, which makes people gradually ignore his fat body. Then he began to talk about his experience over the years, how he grew up as a poor boy in the country, and finally grew up as a bishop through hardships and accepted the scepter to become an archbishop.

   His voice is peaceful, but the tone in it is extraordinarily real, and sometimes he choked slightly when talking about difficult situations, which made people moved.

"I know this is not good, but I really can't find a better way. If I don't do this, this position will be taken up by a worse person. I know this is not a reason to offend myself, as I am The priest of the scepter of the Palace of Ten Swords should be an example to create a fair and just environment for everyone."

   "So, here I resign from my duty as priest of the Ten Sword Palace and voluntarily accept the review of the judge."

After    finished speaking, his plump body slowly lowered his head, and used his hands to present the scepter in his hand to others, while the pastor who followed shed tears.

   The scepter was picked up with both hands by the priest of the Ten Sword Palace, and then placed on the open space in front of the crowd. At this time, Sibis had nothing in his hands.

   Otis looked at Sibis who was acting like this. For some reason, he suddenly felt cold, and a bad premonition emerged in his heart. How could Sibes admit defeat so easily, he was not someone who would give up power easily.

   When everyone was surprised and the scene was quiet, a woman of about 40 years old emerged from the crowd.

   "No, don't do this, Sir Sibis. You are the savior of our mother and child."

   A few more walked out of the crowd, and they wept the respectable archbishop, saying that he had helped themselves and their family members so that they could get out of their predicament.

"At that time, I was seriously injured. When I was sent to the church, I didn’t have much air intake, but Mr. Sibes did not hesitate to do so at any cost~www.wuxiaspot.com~, at great risk, cast a healing spell for me and saved me. Life. But since then, Master Sibis has also suffered damage and has not made progress for many years."

   "I once owed a gambling debt, and my wife was scattered. It was Master Sibes who helped me and asked me to re-behave. I can't bear to slander a good person like this."

"me too......"

   These people are not completely unfamiliar outsiders. Some of them are colleagues or colleagues who are familiar to everyone in the church. They are not in high positions, and many of them are kind and ordinary people around them.

   When they said this, the noisy crowd was silent and hesitated.

   But, this is not over yet.

"Why, why do you slander a good man and an old man so respectable? He dedicated most of his life to the church and improved the living environment of so many people. Because of Lord Sibes’s power, the churches everywhere Life is much richer than before."

   "Why can you criticize so righteously!"

   "But, what he did before..." some people muttered quietly.

   "Which one of your eyes sees, you are listening to others."

"This is just a rumor and slander deliberately spread by others, in order to force Lord Sibis to step down." An elderly pastor walked out from the side of the crowd. He didn't say a word in the previous protest. Only then did he come out to speak.

   "Please forgive me for being cowardly, not daring to stand up when Master Sibes is attacked. At this time, I can no longer remain silent." This gray-bearded old man is an old pastor who has retired in the church.
