Chapter 529: An Accident
Out of the three, Batistuta was the most nervous .
This righteous elder was looking at Fei as if he was a young man who proposed to the girl he loved . His ‘passionate’ and ‘steamy’ stares were enough to melt iron .
To him, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity .
A few days ago, the former Bishop of Black-Cloth Shrine got a hint from the gods when he was praying, and he predicted that Jessie was going to encounter a huge trouble during this mission . Batistuta was worried that the most talented genius Black-Cloth Shrine ever got after the traitor Platini incident might die, so he rushed to Dual-Flags City as the Right Deacon of Black-Cloth Shrine .
When he got to the church in Dual-Flags City, both Jessie and Alan who were greatly injured were sent back . He was infuriated that someone tried to kill Jessie, and he used a portion of his life energy to heal Jessie . Afterward, he learned from Jessie that the King of Chambord, Alexander, was a [God’s Favorite Child] and had golden Holy Power .
This news shocked Batistuta .
For many years now, Batistuta’s only responsibility was to travel across the northern region of the continent, find a [God’s Favorite Child], and restore Black-Cloth Shrine’s prestige and honor .
According to the traditions and customs of the Holy Church, only the shrines with [God’s Favorite Children] were loved and cared for by the gods . Therefore, once Black-Cloth Shrine got its own [God’s Favorite Child], they would go back and become one of the main shrines in the Holy Church . They would then be able to push their [God’s Favorite Child] forward and potentially make them into the Pope, gaining the chance of restoring the glory that Black-Cloth Shrine once had .
Unfortunately, in the last 100 years, Batistuta wasn’t successful .
Of course, he was able to make some progress .
There were at least three times .
He was able to find three [God’s Favorite Children], but the endings were the same .
Two of the people were lured and taken by other shrines who were closely monitoring Batistuta’s actions . By giving more promises and more benefits, other shrines robbed those two [God’s Favorite Children] away and destroyed Batistuta’s hope .
It was a known fact that Black-Cloth Shrine had fallen . Its power and influence were a lot inferior compared with other more prominent shrines .
The last [God’s Favorite Child] Batistuta found was a six years old boy from 33 years ago . Due to the deep bond between him and Batistuta, this boy rejected invitations from all other shrines and decided on joining Black-Cloth Shrine . However, he died mysteriously on the way back to the headquarter of Black-Cloth Shrine .
It was clear that someone assassinated this [God’s Favorite Child] who wasn’t even mature yet .
Batistuta was enraged and caused a lot of trouble in the northern region .
However, there wasn’t much that he could do other than that .
Black-Cloth Shrine and the other shrines knew that all of this happened because Pope Blatter was still worried about Black-Cloth Shrine and was monitoring it in secret . He was afraid that his former mortal enemy would get breathing room and revive .
If Black-Cloth Shrine didn’t have a glorious history, didn’t have a large believer base, and didn’t create creed and beliefs that significantly affected the Holy Church as a whole, it would have been wiped out a long time ago .
For all these years, even though Batistuta was desperate and mad, he didn’t give up hope .
Like a convicted criminal who was looking for a way to redeem himself, this elder has been looking for opportunities crazily .
Therefore, after he heard that Fei was a [God’s Favorite Child], he had been planning .
In the last three days, he locked himself in a small room and used all of his connections and networks to get information on Fei . From how the King was born an idiot to how revealed his strength during the defense of Chambord to how he became a leading character in the young generation of warriors in Zenit……
After Batistuta connected the dots and made a series of hypothesis, he arrived at a conclusion that was completely opposite to other shrines’ estimations!
