"The Cardinals have always stood at the top of the Holy Church. My dear friend, don't you think this Cardinal is hiding something?"
Even though Josiah tried to stop him, Kerendo III still had no intention of forgiving the Cardinal.
The Cardinal opened his mouth and was about to say something, but Josiah slowly walked to his side.
"The Court of Heresy has been a mysterious organization of the Church since ancient times. It's said that it reports directly to the Pope and doesn't listen to the commands of any Bishop. A Bishop in a diplomatic position wouldn't know the details."
"Just as this young man said, Your Majesty Kerendo III."
Josiah's appearance calmed the Cardinal down a little. No matter what, he was still a diplomat, so he began to try to find a way to get out of this meeting unscathed.
But after some careful thought, he turned his head to look at the 'kind young man' and realized that he seemed to have revealed too much information.
"Then, my dear friend Josiah, do you have a way to identify the Nephilic Judge?"
This was also the reason why Kerendo III invited Josiah to the meeting.
"This world knows too little about the Nephilic Judges. Only a few dusty books in the oldest library can be found. Only a few words about the Nephilic Judges can be found, let alone the way to distinguish them."
Jo … Josiah?
The Cardinal immediately felt that this name was very familiar. Before he left, he heard one of his teachers mention that a Chaos Demon named Josiah is wreaking havoc in the human world. That Chaos Demon is very dangerous, so don't act recklessly in the future. Stay away from that demon and inform the Holy Army of his specific location. The Holy Army will punish him.
His teacher did not describe the atrocities that the Chaos Demon had committed, but the word 'Chaos' alone was enough to make the Cardinal flee.
After all, Chaos Demons were existences above the terrifying Sinful Demons. They were the rulers of the Demon World.
So when the Cardinal learned that the 'kind young man' beside him might be a Chaos Demon, he immediately distanced himself from him.
Are the people of this country crazy?! They actually allowed a Chaos Demon to step into the main hall of the parliament filled with nobles!
Not only did it step into the main hall, but it also seemed to be on good terms with the King.
Even if the Holy Army came, they probably wouldn't be able to punish this demon!
"Your Majesty, there's a library on the Weave that has detailed information on the Inquisitor. I've recommended it to Lady Sizer before, so I'll recommend it to you as well."
Josiah glanced sideways at the bishop. Although he stared back at Josiah with a resolute expression, from the way he gripped his cane, his heart was not at peace.
"Weave? During this period of time, I only cared about listening to Miss Taylin's story on Noland's Voice. The sequel to 'The Merchant of Venice' is really exciting … 'Appearance is often completely inconsistent with the object itself. People are easily deceived by superficial decorations.' "
Kerendo III seemed to be completely immersed in his impromptu performance.
"Ahem … I'm willing to share information with His Majesty, including some methods to identify the Inquisitor. But Your Majesty, I think it's better to end this parliament first," said Josiah.
Kerendo III quickly understood what Josiah meant. He put down the rapier in his hand and announced the end of the parliament. He then looked at the Cardinal standing in the middle of the main hall.
"What do you think we should do with this Cardinal?" asked Kerendo III.
"Your Majesty, this demon must be lying." The Cardinal forced himself to calm down and began his final argument. "I've seen a powerful illusion caster in the Iron Nation. The illusions he created were so real that they could pass off as real! This demon must have seen those images in the 'painting' just now through illusions. "
"Part of it is correct, but it doesn't matter. Your Majesty, you can get someone to drag him away," said Josiah.
Kerendo III waved his hand to signal the three knight commanders sitting in the main hall to step forward. The Cardinal realized that it was useless to explain with words.
"May the Holy Light point out the truth to Your Majesty." He gritted his teeth and did not wait for the three knights to drag him away. He turned around and left under the 'escort' of the three knight commanders.
The parliament officially came to an end because of the Cardinal's departure.
… …
After the parliament ended, Josiah learned from an attendant that the place Kerendo III had arranged for them to meet was in the Underworld.
Left with no choice, Josiah could only use Zenas' teleportation gate to return to the Underworld.
When Josiah returned to the set, a warship made of steel was hovering in the air.
There was no wind pressure from the hovering warship on the ground. Although there were many fine details on the warship, Josiah quickly guessed that it was an illusion.
Josiah walked up to the creator of the warship, Hiri.
At this time, a large number of faint purple inscriptions flowed out of Hiri's body. Her fair forehead was also covered in sweat. It seemed that it was not easy for her to control the warship.
The warship did not hover for long. Just as it was about to reveal its weapon, the illusion suddenly became extremely blurry and gradually disappeared.
"If I were your teacher, I would let you start with small things first."
Josiah used his hand to wipe the sweat off the spellcaster lady's forehead and said.
"Who told your blueprints to be filled with these kinds of magic machines …" Hiri took a deep breath and threw a piece of paper to Josiah.
The warship drawn on it was an original part that Josiah had drawn on a whim when he was drawing the Avatar Blueprint.
Josiah had originally sketched it out, but after Hiri discovered it, the sketch was even colored in.
"I told her to start with basic animals like wolves and bears, but she insisted on starting with these." The purple-clothed figure walked up to Josiah and Hiri with her staff.
"If you believe in Hiri's talent, then it shouldn't be a problem for her to start with the harder ones … Weren't the details of the magic machines created with illusions great?" Josiah returned the drawing to Hiri.
"I don't want illusions to become her toys." The purple-clothed figure revealed her headache.
Illusions were supposed to be a great skill. Although this apprentice of hers had outstanding talent, she was very stubborn and only learned illusions of things that she liked.
Hiri ignored her teacher's lecture. Purple inscriptions flowed out of her fingertips again, and an enormous magic puppet slowly climbed up from the ground.
"Hiri, you need to create things in reality before you can start …" A shocked voice came from the other side of the portal before the purple-clothed figure could finish.
"That's unbelievable. Heavens, is this a magic machine from the ruins of the demonic realm?!"
"Who's that neurotic person?" Hiri asked Josiah softly as she controlled the illusion.
