Chapter 104.1: Knight and Bishop (4)

While Gareld hesitated, the bishop somehow managed to soothe and calm Johan down.

Just step outside for a moment, brother.

But what if that person attacks the bishop. . .

I understand your concern, brother, but who would come as an envoy and attack me? There are more than a hundred warriors here.

Johan hesitated at those words. The bishop thought Johan hesitated because of worry, but that wasnt the case.

, . . .

From Johans perspective, who had experienced battles, the bishops words seemed somewhat amusing.

The people here had a narrow way of thinking. It wasnt a matter of high or low status, but rather a lack of imagination.

Anyway, it didnt matter much. From Johans view, it didnt seem like Sir Gareld would attack the bishop.

And even if the bishop was captured, it wouldnt be a problem for Johan. To Johan, the bishop had no value as a hostage.

Then I shall follow your words.

As Johan was about to leave, Gareld urgently signaled a servant. Recognizing the signal, the servant nodded slightly.

Sir, I have something to tell you separately.

As soon as he stepped outside, Johan nodded to the whispering servant.

So, are you saying you will turn to Biagiones side?

Ahem. Not a side, rather, it means no longer being hostile. Your Excellency.

Gareld spoke cautiously. The two seemed similar but were different. One meant actively working for Biagione, and the other simply meant withdrawing from the fight.

Anyway, it was welcome news for the bishop. The opposition had been tightly united, spreading rumors in the city, making it hard to breathe. . .

Its regrettable, but unavoidable. If youve come to know the truth and changed your heart, thats enough for me.

I am ashamed too. To be swayed without knowing anything.

God will forgive you, Im sure.

, . . .

Everyone in the city knew he was wealthy, but to say such things. Gareld was boiling with anger. He disliked everything about these republic folks. They lacked any sense of honor.

. . .Understood. Your Excellency. I misspoke.

. ?

It wasnt surprising that Gareld had come secretly. The servant had informed in advance. It was that they had exchanged intentions without Biagione knowing.

As soon as he arrived, Gareld tried to persuade Johan by talking about what the bishop had done. Initially, Johan intended to ignore it, but changed his mind as Gareld persisted.

What would happen if he showed a yielding attitude here?

As Johan gradually showed reactions like ! , . . . ? !, Gareld became excited.

Finally, he had met someone he could communicate with. It seemed they could understand each other being from the same Empire. Those beastmen on this peninsula were all. . .

Elated, Gareld revealed more and more. About the bishops situation, the citys state, those pressuring the bishop. . . It was a kind of venting.

Oh, to treat a bishop like that. . . These republic fools know nothing of honor.

Thats what Im saying!

Johan realized that the bishops situation was worse than he thought. The religious community was fiercely attacking him for the corruption he had committed, and the rumors in the city were not good.

Now, if he loses the bishop position, he would have to retire and live in seclusion.

.

Johan was relieved that he had received it in advance from the bishop. Even if the bishop retired lonely, Johan and his men could leave happily.

. . .Its such a shame we get along so well in conversation. Would you consider taking up the sword with me?

While talking, Gareld had confirmed who Johan was.

He had heard rumors about Marcels troll slayer.

At first, he was skeptical whether it was just a rumor or not, but now that he became the dukes standard-bearer, he must have had real skills.

His identity was certain, and his honor was great, so there was no harm in pulling him in. The warriors he led were also impressive. . .
