Chapter 571 - 410: Educating the Fiery Flame Witch Phil (4)
The Holy Court suffered such severe blows and heavy losses, with its status greatly diminished. Would the high echelons of the Holy Court worry about the future of the Church?
Perhaps they did.
But this worry, compared to the question of who would hold the papal throne, was hardly worth mentioning.
What concerned them more was whether they could ascend to that position themselves.
Veronica and Anpton, those two scoundrels, even went to grovel before the Hero Qin Chu, begging for the Hero to take the Pope’s position.
In their eyes, this was nothing short of blasphemy, a betrayal.
Even if he was the Hero, the fact that he was a foreigner from a Different World could never be changed.
The glory of the Holy Court would not tolerate such defilement, and the selection for the Pope must be made from among the nine of them.
Qin Chu, he just doesn’t have the qualifications, understand?
It was precisely because of this that this meeting deliberately excluded Veronica and Anpton.
Of course, all of those lapdogs of Rose Vesper once had contact with scrolls that could connect directly to the Void; they feared even more that once Qin Chu took that position, these matters would be exposed, and they would be held accountable.
