Father Mavi Text Volume 251: Romans with True Character "Does the Wisdom Cult know about our capture of mermaids?"
"Just now, the news came from the insider we arranged within the Wisdom God Religion, saying that the Knights of the Holy Silver Cross sent a team to Mermaid Island late last night, most likely to investigate the mermaid incident!"
The mermaids, also known as the sirens, have a strong sense of revenge and are a very vengeful race. If their companions are captured, they will definitely find ways to retaliate against humans. The local church will definitely send troops to investigate after learning that the mermaids are restless and constantly attacking ships.
, it is not difficult to find the head of the Windsor Kingdom fleet.
"Expose it, just expose it. Anyway, the mermaid has been sent to London. Even if they know it, they can't do anything to us. The most they can do is denounce us." Ma Wei said: "The most important thing right now is the talks. As long as the talks are successful, it will open the door for all countries to
In the potion market, the God of Wisdom won’t care about a few mermaids.”
"That's true."
The second prince nodded and stopped worrying about the mermaid thing: "The meeting place is at Notre Dame Cathedral. Although it is very close to the mansion, we have to rush there in advance. Breakfast is ready, so come down and eat it quickly."
"Um."
After the second prince left, Ma Wei couldn't sleep anymore. He washed up, put on his coat, and went to the restaurant on the first floor. Archbishop Brandon and others had woken up early and were eating the breakfast prepared for them by the mansion.
The delegations from the Kingdom of Frederick and the Roman Republic were sitting not far away. Bismarck had smoked a cigar early in the morning and had a glass of brandy with ham and eggs for breakfast. When he saw Mavey, he glanced behind him, but did not find Daniel.
figure.
If he hadn't been awakened by the second prince, Ma Wei would have still been asleep at this moment. The meeting started at 9 o'clock, and starting at 8 o'clock was already early enough. Levin and Daniel who lived with him also developed similar habits.
Habits, especially for Daniel, when he first came to the Romanov Kingdom, he got up before dawn every morning, and later developed the same biological clock as Mavey.
Yawning, Ma Wei ordered breakfast from the maid. He ordered a bowl of white porridge, a bacon omelette and a cup of original black tea without milk or sugar. The breakfast of the second prince and others was similar to his, except that they had white porridge.
Replaced with bread.
"Nicholas, is the Sleeping Toast ready?" Archbishop Brandon cut off a piece of ham and stuffed it into his mouth, and asked: "Today we are going to show the strength of the Manstein Company to representatives from various countries, and the Sleeping Toast is the main product.
, it must be taken out."
I think you want to eat it yourself.
On the way to Paris, there was no oven on the ship, which resulted in Archbishop Brandon not having toast for several days. In fact, ordinary bread can also be substituted for toast, but Archbishop Brandon, as a church member on this trip,
The person in charge cannot indulge in the fantasy world of toast every day, so Ma Wei discussed with the second prince and decided not to provide him with sleeping toast for the time being, lest he fall off the chain at the critical moment.
"I have entrusted the kitchen to bake the toast. It will be out in half an hour. It's in time."
Archbishop Brandon's body did not experience a withdrawal reaction without being able to eat Sleepy Toast. The hallucinogenic Asante potion is not a drug. Even so, Archbishop Brandon was still a little unable to control himself. He needed Sleepy Toast mentally.
of sustenance.
After a while, Yunia, who was wearing pajamas and holding a little bear, went downstairs. She did not appear from the accommodation area, but walked out of the kitchen, followed by a helpless maid. After asking, she found out that she smelled
Sneaking into the kitchen with the scent, he managed to pass under the chef's nose by virtue of his height, and stole several pieces of dessert.
Stewart, who had been lying in bed for a day due to seasickness, finally recovered. There was more blood on his face and his head still hurt a little, but he no longer had a strong feeling of vomiting. He was eating like crazy as if he hadn't eaten in several days, attracting everyone.
Keep looking sideways.
Feeling a little embarrassed, the second prince hurriedly finished his breakfast and left. As soon as he left, Levin and Daniel walked into the restaurant.
Seeing Daniel, who was smoking a cigar and drinking a glass of brandy for almost an hour, Bismarck immediately sat upright and stared at the other person motionlessly, looking from top to bottom, and then from bottom to top, making sure that the other person was fine and had a rosy complexion.
After he was very healthy, he withdrew his gaze with satisfaction, picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Daniel and William V often wrote letters to communicate, but what they said in the letters may not be accurate. How they lived can be known only by meeting them in person. A large part of the reason why Bismarck came to Paris in person during this trip was to visit William V on his behalf.
Daniel.
Seeing that the other party is doing well, I feel relieved.
Daniel also spotted Bismarck. After greeting him with his eyes, he sat down next to Mavey and ordered a breakfast. While eating, he quarreled with Levin and used rather rude words.
Bismarck could only understand some Windsor, which was still quite different from the authentic Windsor people, but he could understand a few curse words, and he also knew that Daniel greeted the Levin family three times in one sentence, which was very 'polite'.
His eyelids twitched slightly and his gaze became subtle. Bismarck looked at Daniel, who was full of foul words, and then at Ma Wei, who had a calm face. His throat was crawling, as if he had a lot to say.
"Walk."
Putting out his cigar, Bismarck didn't want to stay in the restaurant any longer. He didn't know what went wrong, but there was no doubt that Daniel had indeed changed a lot. He had become.
Too grounded.
Mavie was a little unjust, and Levin was also very unjust. Daniel's turn into this had something to do with them, but not much. At least Mavie never taught him to curse. He learned all the swear words at Eton. Not long ago, Daniel was a well-educated and sensible person.
What a good boy!
At 8:30, the church carriage stopped downstairs, picked up the delegations from the three countries, and arrived at the Notre Dame Cathedral located on the Île de la Seine in the center of the Seine.
The status of Notre Dame Cathedral in the Wisdom Cult is the same as that of St. Paul's Cathedral in London. It is the central church of the church. In addition to Pope Calistus IX, Anatole also lives here.
When Anatole was mentioned, everyone felt a little nervous. Anatole is the god closest to believers in the Apocalypse God System. He often goes out, and even ordinary people have the opportunity to see him. This is a good thing, but in the
At the moment, it seems that it is safest not to meet Anatole.
Compared with St. Paul's Cathedral in London, Notre Dame Cathedral in the center of St. Petersburg is more magnificent. This is not because the Windsor architects are worse than the Gauls, but because the ancient Notre Dame Cathedral was built more than a century ago.
It suffered a fire and was rebuilt to what it is now.
It is obviously unfair to compare pure ancient buildings with modern buildings in terms of height and magnificence. As long as the people of Windsor are willing, they can build a more magnificent church at any time.
Speaking of the fire a century ago, Ma Wei remembered something and asked Archbishop Brandon: "As the center of the Holy See, there are ancient demons sealed underground in St. Paul's Cathedral. Where is Notre Dame Cathedral?"
"Of course there are demon seals." Archbishop Brandon replied: "To be precise, these demons were not sealed under the church at the beginning. They were brought there by the founder of the church. For example, some demons were sealed under the church.
In the clay pots, some demons are sealed in gold ornaments, and once the seal is broken, they will be released."
"In this case, in the Notre Dame Cathedral where there was a fire a century ago, could some demon take the opportunity to escape?"
"this"
Archbishop Brandon frowned and said: "I have not heard of any demons escaping. It is very difficult for demons to escape the seal. The last demon that escaped was named Jinna. It was able to escape because the seal was loose, and every other
From time to time, the church will check the seals and strengthen the loose seals."
"The fire a century ago did not completely burn down the Notre Dame Cathedral. It only burned down part of the spire. The demons were sealed underground. The fire above should not affect the underground. If any demons escape, the Wisdom Cult will
We will definitely notify other churches.”
Having said this, Archbishop Brandon smiled: "A century ago, the seal of the Devil's Gate had not been loosened. Even if a devil escaped, he could not do evil and could only hide in the artifacts and live an ignoble existence."
Ma Wei nodded and led you. He just asked casually. He didn't think that any demon would break free of the seal a century ago. If that were the case, the Four Pillars would not need to wait for the Doomsday Party to come to help, let alone
I promised them three wishes.
Badji also said a similar situation. Demons, also known as ancient gods, were created by the three supreme gods, and their personalities were engraved on the back of the Demon Gate. When the Demon Gate is closed and the seal is indestructible, the demons will
Being restricted, their strength declines rapidly, and if things continue like this, even an ordinary human child can kill them.
Rather than breaking free from the seal at the wrong time, it is better to hide in the seal with peace of mind and wait for the times to change.
Humans do not dare to release them easily. When the seal is first released, the demons still have power, but they cannot be replenished and will become weaker and weaker over time. During this period, the demons can kill many humans, which is completely unnecessary.
Too many casualties to pay for a demon.
The carriage stopped in front of the Notre Dame Cathedral. A bishop had been waiting for a long time. Under his leadership, the delegation from the three countries entered the Notre Dame Cathedral and arrived at the conference hall on the second floor. Here they met Archbishop Fay, who is the Wisdom God Sect.
out representatives.
In addition to Archbishop Faye, the representative of the kingdom turned out to be Maria. After the rebirth, Napoleon had relatives, but he did not choose an heir. He could only be represented by other nobles with status.
Although the Pope did not appear in person, the Wisdom God Sect appointed Archbishop Fai with equal status, which was not rude in terms of etiquette. Archbishop Fai was Anatole's popular figure and had sufficient decision-making power.
"Everyone, please take a seat."
The conference table is square, which is convenient for dividing delegations. According to the nameplates on the table, everyone sat down one by one. The nuns served hot tea and snacks, opened the windows, and let the bright sunshine shine into the room. After everything was ready, Faye
The archbishop took out a document and asked the monks to distribute it to everyone.
"This is the potion cooperation treaty drafted by the Wisdom God Religion. Please take a look at it. If you have any objections, feel free to raise them. After all, this is the purpose of our gathering here today."
The delegations from various countries came well prepared and had already thought of terms that were beneficial to them. The same was true for the Wisdom Cult. The documents were densely packed with treaties. At the beginning, they were considered fair and just, and they were made for all countries. However,
As time went on, the taste gradually started to change.
"Treaty Article 9, the relevant tax rates for magic medicines in each country shall not be lower than international standards and must be unified."
A representative of the Roman Republic couldn't help but speak. While speaking, he made gestures in the air with his right hand: "This treaty is obviously beneficial to Bonaparte's First Empire! You occupy the most central position and are the magic medicine."
The country with the most transportation checkpoints! Even shipping has to pass through your territorial waters! This is unfair!”
After listening to the translation, Archbishop Faye smiled and said: "We are thinking about everyone. Potions are like other industries. How can we do without a fixed standard? At the beginning, we also thought about each country implementing its own standards.
But what are the consequences of doing this? It’s just going back to the old way, where you raise taxes a little, and I’ll follow suit.”
Archbishop Fay put his black tea in front of everyone, picked up the sugar bowl and poured it down. The sugar quickly submerged the tea cup: "The result is like this. A good potion business has turned into a pot of porridge. How to drink it?"
"It is necessary to set standards, but these standards are obviously biased towards Bonaparte's First Empire!"
"That's right! If you really want to sign a contract, show some sincerity! Don't make small moves here!"
"Everyone, please calm down and say whatever you have to say!"
There was a tense atmosphere at the beginning of the talks. You must know that this has not yet gone into the details of various treaties. If this continues, there will be trouble if there is no fight.
After a moment of silence, representatives from each country took out the treaties they had prepared in advance and passed them to representatives of other countries to study them carefully.
looking at looking at
"Son of a bitch."
It was the representative of the Roman Republic who spoke at the beginning. This time he swore directly, threw the document on the table, pointed at Archbishop Brandon's nose and cursed. Since he was speaking in Sardinian, the Mavericks couldn't listen.
I understand, but judging from his blushing face and thick neck, as well as his constantly changing gestures like flowery hands
He was probably scolding her like crazy.
The translators next to me were dumbfounded. They didn’t know whether they should translate or which part to translate.
Ma Wei felt that he should have seen the document about the treaty in which the Kingdom of Windsor obtained benefits for himself. He had read all the contents of the document and spoke impartially.
The conditions offered by the Kingdom of Windsor are indeed a bit excessive, and they are obviously relying on the powerful purchasing channels of the Manstein Potion Company to forcefully extract benefits.
When he saw the document, Ma Wei expected that the representatives from various countries would start a dispute over it, but who would have thought that the representatives of the Roman Republic would be so "genuine" and start shouting on the spot!
