Don't confiscate my identity as a human race

Chapter 287 - 275 Lanci stirred up her playful spirit_1

Lanci reached out and pet the cat boss once more.

He felt the cat boss was in need of comfort right now.

"If I accept this, what else can I get?"

Lanci looked at the Pink Sacred Level Heavenly Seal, paused for a while, neither accepted nor refused, but asked.

Apart from the basic attributes similar to the [Certificate of Rebirth - Destruction] he had already received, the Pink Holy Level [Saint’s Testimony] also has the authority to imprint the highest blue quality of the proof of resurrection. It can include people he favors into the Hegemony Branch on their own initiative, which itself is already a considerable power.

But the Pink Holy Level Magic Card is not easy to unbind.

If there was a possibility of resignation before, The Bishop of Hegemony should not let him resign now.

The minimum treatment is far from what a Grand Priest or a direct soldier can compare.

Depending on each bishop’s attitude towards their heirs, the care given will be different.

Even a person like Bishop Ivanos of Destruction, giving the Pink Sacred Magic Card for the Goddess of Destruction as if it cost nothing.

Lanci would like to know how much power Sigrid is willing to give him.

After all, choosing the Saint Heir or Saintess is equivalent to selecting a successor or a confidant by the Bishop. Correspondingly, the Bishop would use all available resources to train them until one day they are capable of challenging other bishops, or even becoming another Cardinal Bishop with their own independent title.

The factions and balances among the Cardinal Bishops have always existed in the Rebirth Church, which has been riddled with infighting since ancient times.

If enough bishops stand on one side, they can even dismiss the Pope through the voting rights of [Proof of Bishop] and elect a new Pope from the bishops.

The [Pope Sovereign] possesses a special attack attribute against all holders of [Certificate of Rebirth] and [Proof of Bishop].

As the [Proof of Bishop] is epic level, it cannot be unbound.

Under originally comparable strength, any Cardinal Bishop’s [Proof of Bishop] will become the [Pope Sovereign] once it evolves, other Cardinal Bishops will not be its opponent, and the new Pope will completely control the Rebirth Church.

Every new Pope’s inauguration is accompanied by a bloody purge, clearing up those originally hostile and disobedient bishops and their branches.

Sigrid clearly has an ambition to advance to the position of the Pope.

"What I have, you will also have. From today on, you are my confidant and agent, but correspondingly..."

She did not go on because she had already said it once.

Upon hearing this, Lanci hesitated slightly.

He never thought that the power Sigrid is willing to give him is all.

But once betraying this trust, the consequences will be equally severe.

"As long as I don’t betray you, you need to protect me and can’t force me, is that okay?"

After some thought, Lanci felt that the Bishop of Hegemony was a person who was much easier to communicate with than he had imagined, and it would not be bad to cooperate with her.

"Of course."

If she, the splendid Bishop of Hegemony, were to infiltrate the Nirvana Branch as an undercover agent and got discovered, it would become a laughingstock among the bishops.

"You’re not going undercover, you’re just worried about me. You’ll protect me and I will provide you with a cover to ensure that you won’t be found."

Lanci slowly revealed his plan while holding the cat.

The cat boss felt a familiar aroma returning.

It suspected that this kid had intended to go undercover in the Nirvana Branch from the very beginning, and now he even wanted to coax the Bishop of Hegemony to join him in this endeavor!

If she doesn’t go with you, does that mean she doesn’t care about you? Can you really handle the weight of a Cardinal Bishop?!

"..."

Sigrid fell silent.

She initially intended to refuse, but felt somewhat uneasy about letting this kid risk his life.

After all, he had now received the proof of the Saint Heir. If he caused trouble while staying in Nirvana’s main base and got caught, the consequences would certainly be far more terrible than before.

"Isn’t it also quite nice to treat it as just a bit of fun? When you reach high positions, you find yourself always alone; no one to talk to you, the loneliness of the harsh winter makes you shiver, what do you seek in this high place?"

Lanci looked around the library. It was clear that Sigrid didn’t often invite people here.

Though not as isolated and introverted as Talia.

But after she finished her busy work, she could only appreciate her library alone. Regardless of what achievements she had, she had no one to share her joy with.

"..."

Sigrid found Lanci’s words quite interesting. With her arms crossed over her chest and fingertips lightly tapping, she observed Lanci,

"And you understand this feeling?"

"Of course."

Lanci recalled the days when he held power over the thunder at Purgatory Corridor Academy, his laughter imbued with a hint of melancholy.

But his gaze seemed to tell the Bishop of Hegemony that he could help her alleviate this boredom, or rather, being with him would never be boring.

In the momentary silence of the expansive library,

The Bishop of Hegemony once again transformed back into Sikder. She seemed less intimidating yet retained her imposing and splendid appearance, her aloof demeanor now having a touch of vivacity.

"Let’s go. From now on, I’ll only be a knight of the Fourth Order. Neither strong nor weak, just your partner. Only when you’re in danger will I use my true power. But once you need me to save your life, it means you’re not competent, and I’ll have to punish you."

"What kind of punishment?"

Lanci didn’t expect that Sikder would be even more active than him, even volunteering a set of rules.

"I won’t tell you yet."

Sikder smiled, seemingly looking forward to going to the Nirvana Branch for a bit of fun now.
