——If you want to blame it, you can only blame the cup's mind for opening up too early.
They had sanity long before they were born. Before they felt the "love" of the whole world for themselves in an ignorant way, they had already been soaked in the blood of human desire, understood greed, understood hatred, and understood the purpose of their birth.
"The baby in the cup is not a continuation of life at all - it is just a copy of life. Anyone who sees his baby in the cup will instinctively feel disgusted, because this baby is exactly the same as himself. It is proof of their failure in life...'
"'How can a man-made thing understand human love? What a joke... How can you love someone if you have never felt love since you were born?'"
Annan retells the last words of Henry VIII.
There was compassion and calm in his eyes.
"Of course he understands love. The fact that he can say these words is enough to prove that [man-made things can understand human love]... But it is precisely because of this that he laments his meaningless life.
"No one has ever expected anything from him. The royal family is a place of indifference. For an artificial person like him who pursues 'love' and 'need', he is destined to not find what he wants to pursue. Something.
"No matter how good he is as a king...his most trustworthy ministers, heirs and relatives are just counting the days and calmly waiting for him to die on time."
When a person's end is crucified before birth, he has lost all possibilities in his life.
It was with Henry VIII as a mirror that Annan realized clearly... what kind of happy environment he lived in.
Also has an unusual origin, is also expected by all people, and has a heavy mission that covers his whole life from birth...But Annan is trusted and loved by people. He has friends around him, brothers and sisters in front of him, gods behind him, and two hands, the Hand of Winter and the player.
Compared with Henry VIII, he was so happy.
Using people as a mirror can reveal gains and losses.
Henry VIII was like a "failed Annan". With his own death and his meaningless life, he told Annan in a very real way... what would happen to him if he chose to fall.
That's when.
Dmitri suddenly came over.
He made a fist with his right hand, knocked it gently on his heart, and looked down at Annan: "Grandma loves you, and I love you too.
"Don't worry about Annan...we are different from them."
In the cold winter, there is no need to scheming like Noah - it is already very difficult to survive and survive to adulthood.
"If it weren't for you, Annan, maybe I would have died long ago."
Dmitri sighed and said seriously: "Don't think too much, you and him are two completely different people."
...Huh?
This sentence made Annan startled.
Because he had no impression of what Dmitri said.
But Maria on the side interrupted: "Since we have decided to send Noah as an envoy, this is a diplomatic visit. Then of course Annan will bring the three-color scepter... This becomes reasonable.
"Ivan is too weak to go out for a visit. As the new Grand Duke, it would be a good choice for you to fill in for him... It just so happens that you can avoid the limelight. At least you can avoid those who are destroying the northern forces in Zolgen. , all the forces that came to beg for mercy for them.
"However, the three of us cannot leave at the same time."
"...can't we leave at the same time."
After Maria finished speaking, Dmitri nodded and volunteered: "In that case, then let me..."
"——You look after the house."
Maria interrupted without mercy.
"Why!"
Dmitri slapped the table unwillingly.
"Because you are the weakest."
An Nan explained quietly.
"Hey, hey, hey! You kid..."
"Annan is right."
Maria immediately interrupted: "Aside from frost swordsmanship, the only thing you can use is the magic of your old grandmother, my Lord Bishop. When you are on the land of [Winter] that you have the right to claim, Only in this way can you exert your own strength... Once you leave the winter, you will become too fragile.
"We won't bring too many Winter Hands this time, because we still have to leave some people to suppress the North. Then I'm afraid we won't have the manpower to protect you."
[The right to claim] is also one of the traditional powers, and it is justifiable.
If you want to use your grandmother's magic, you must follow a certain tradition. In other words, the user of divine magic must have status.
The Winter family can use divine magic anywhere in Winter, because Winter originally belongs to them - conversely, if you are in other countries, you can only use divine magic in your own residence. Because the house they have purchased is also their private property.
The other bishops are a little more troublesome. They either use magic in the temple, or they have to follow certain traditions...or "rules."
For example, you can use magic once a day in December; or you can use magic once after completing a complete worship ceremony to the old grandmother for the first time every day; or you can be used as an elder by a young person. When attacking, you can use a divine spell to counterattack; as a cleric, you can also get a chance to counterattack when being attacked by civilians; or when executing a death row prisoner - as long as you are sure that the crime committed by the other party is enough to warrant the death penalty, there is no need to actually surrender. If the other party becomes a wanted criminal, he can use magic once and so on. These opportunities can be stacked, but they are fleeting.
If as an elderly cleric, after completing a worship service in December, he is attacked by a little brat who commits murder - then he can use five magic spells in a row when he fights back. . But if the magic attacks other people, those two "high priority" times will be consumed first.
The old grandmother set a lot of rules, generally speaking they are all in this style. There are strict regulations on the various situations in which divine spells can be used, and the levels that can be accessed each time a divine spell is used.
Even if the clergy commits any mistakes...such as making a style problem while having a wife, or accepting bribes from others, or beating an old man without children, or mocking a disabled person, or If you harm and kill others for no reason, a certain amount of magic will be deducted depending on the severity of the situation.
Those temporary means cannot be added back - for example, when being attacked, unless there is only a punishment of "-1" left, and the enemy is really guilty and has obtained five or six magical powers at the same time, Only then can temporary recovery be possible. And after the battle is over, the "amount owed" will be paid back.
If you want to recover, you can only do good deeds or "check in every day".
Without magical authority, it is basically equivalent to abolishing a clergyman. If Grandma's priest fails to use magic in public, he will be laughed at - which means that he must be immoral and secretly commit some crime.
The bishops also have assessments, and they must demonstrate their magical authority during monthly gatherings to prove themselves; at the same time, in each diocese, the bishops will also randomly check the magical powers of clergy. If a person is found unable to use magic twice in a row, he will be exiled and automatically enter the process of being investigated by the Hand of Winter.
If a crime is discovered, the clergy may even be publicly executed as a punishment.
This kind of strict disciplinary review is also the reason why Grandmother's priests always keep a low profile and act cautiously.
After all, in the cold winter when everyone is likely to starve to death, priests who can be well fed, clothed, and paid well and work without fatigue are really a popular profession - priests are generally responsible for legal issues ( Refers to execution, family mediation or legal consultation), because the grandmother's priest does not have healing powers, so she does not live among people.
"Although what you said makes sense, I have to correct one thing. I am no longer a bishop."
Dmitri said calmly and proudly: "Although it has not been announced yet, I have become a cardinal...it will be announced on December 1st this year."
"...What achievements have you made?"
Maria wondered.
"I found three conflicts in the "Dragon Code" and gave new and reasonable answers to several difficult-to-explain moral questions. I updated four of them in the name of the Winter Family. They are no longer applicable now. The old laws and traditions of winter. ~IndoMTL.com~ Of course, the most important thing is my zero punishment record, and the fact that I spent more than a year concentrating on replenishing the frost beast army with new blood."
Dmitri's mouth was filled with a smile that couldn't be concealed.
On the other hand, Maria glared at him: "Please pay attention to your health!
"What you need to tame the frost beast is blood——"
"Of course I know."
Dmitri interrupted Maria.
He pursed his lips and whispered: "But with my talent, all I can do is this kind of hard work. After all, whether it is you or Annan... your blood is too precious.
"I'm coming to see you home, Maria. But remember to bring Uncle Victor and Aunt Zoya with you... Noah is a city of crime, and there are a lot of people with ulterior motives."
Dmitri sighed and took out a cigar from his arms.
Maria didn’t interrupt him this time, but he didn’t start pumping either.
He just held his cigar in his mouth without lighting it, and said vaguely: "Those Noahs, if they don't know anything else, are great scheming people. They are different from those idiots in the north... the further south they go The more people are able to move these colorful intestines, it is definitely because their brains are not frozen.
"In this case, I won't go out this month. If those idiots from the north dare to come and cause trouble, I will chop off their heads and feed them to pigs to use my remaining energy."
He glanced at Annan: "Your Majesty, will you give me this power?"
Dmitri expressed euphemistically that he wanted to take the blame for Annan's "massacre of the nobles". Use this method to further maintain the stability of Annan's rule.
"Of course."
Annan was silent for a while and responded in a low voice.
——And Annan accepted his kindness.
