Chapter 156 - 119 Honorary Citizen and Antioch’s Decision_3
"To find the most likely successful person amid the chaos, assist him, make him experience the meticulous help of the God of All Things. Let him know that the God of All Things is the True God in the world. That’s the secret of how we, the Church, can control the world with ecclesiastical power."
At this point, a glint of ambition flashed in Antioch’s eyes.
In speaking of Bishop Parviga, he was also referring to himself.
He had grown old.
But how annoying it was to his eyes, those figures on the Cardinal’s throne.
In the next election of the Cardinal Group by the Red Bishop Group, it will come down to who has contributed more to the Church, who has proselytized new areas, who has supported the creation of new high nobles and kings.
For Antioch to become a Cardinal, the most decisive method is to support a king’s ascension.
But that was almost too difficult.
It was a blessing, not something to be pursued.
He could not place his hope on such intangible matters.
So he sought to do the next best thing, supporting several major nobles who favor the Church and have the grace of the Church’s support would also be a good choice.
