Chapter 174: bishop's visit

The Grand Duchess said: "There is indeed something about Fanny that would interest a mage."

Sure enough, Ladi sat quietly opposite her, waiting for the other party to continue talking.

"Half a year ago, she awakened her potential in magic power."

"Is that really the case? Did you guide her?"

"No!" Helen shook her head and denied, "At that time, I learned magic from my tutor because of a coincidence and curiosity."

"But when I grew up and realized how difficult it is for mages in this society, although I didn't regret my original decision, I didn't want Fanny to go on this path again, just in case..."

"Anyone else?"

"Neither..."

When Her Highness Helen said this, a half-proud and half-worried expression appeared on her face.

"Fanny, she's self-aware."

"Self-awakening?"

Ladi was shocked! People who can self-awaken their magical potential are legendary existences in the mage community!

"Senior Helen, you... are you really like this?"

Helen replied with great certainty: "I'm sure, Fanny has been under my guardianship all along, and I know exactly who she has been in contact with."

"She didn't realize what it meant at the time, so I told her never to show this ability in front of anyone but me."

"Senior sister, it seems that her awakening has been known by interested people. Children like Fanny don't know how to control their own abilities."

"Yes, I'm still not careful enough."

Regret was revealed in Helen's voice.

"Now is not the time to talk about this, we..."

Just as Ladi was about to say her suggestion, there was another knock on the door outside.

"What's the matter? I'm meeting a visitor."

The waiter's voice came from outside the door: "Your Highness, Bishop Elvis of Niceburg is here to visit."

"bishop?"

Helen and Ladi frowned, because of the witch hunt movement in the south and their identities, they had an instinctive dislike for the teaching staff.

"Let him go back first, I'm busy now."

"Uh...he handed me a box and said that if you don't want to see him, let me pass the box to you."

"Send it in!"

The door of the room opened, and the waiter came in and carefully placed a box on the table in front of the two of them, and then exited.

Helen opened the box suspiciously.

"This... this is..."

The Grand Duchess suddenly fell into a sluggish state.

Ladi looked into the box, and there was a necklace inside.

"Sister, is there anything special about this necklace?"

Helen picked up the necklace and looked at it over and over again.

"This is Fanny's necklace! Yes! That's right! It is this necklace, a gift from me to her."

Finally, there was a clue, and the face of the Grand Duke and Concubine revealed a look of mixed sorrow and joy.

"Why is Fanny's necklace in the hands of the local bishop?"

Helen suddenly calmed down. The power of the church, the witch hunt movement, and Fanny's magical potential made her think of the most terrifying situation.

"Senior sister, it's useless to think wildly, I'd better meet this Bishop Elvis."

"you're right."

…

Bishop Elvis of Nessberg followed the attendants to the parlor of the embassy.

Seeing that His Highness the Grand Princess Helen was already waiting for him inside, the bishop immediately stepped forward and gave a salute.

"Your Highness! Thank you for taking the time to meet with me."

Helen waved her hand: "Don't say extra polite words, Mr. Bishop, please sit down first."

After Elvis sat down, Helen held up the necklace and asked, "Mr. Bishop, can you explain what's going on?"

"Oh, Your Highness, you must have recognized this necklace."

Elvis had a teasing look on his face.

"The thing is, the church raided the stronghold of a group of xiéè wizards not long ago, and we met unexpected people there."

"Fanny?"

"Exactly, it is your younger sister who was jailed not long ago—Counse Fanny. This necklace belongs to the Countess."

Helen's heart was shaken, on the one hand because she was finally looking forward to the news of her sister, and on the other hand because her sister had fallen into the hands of the church.

She pretended to be calm, and said in a slightly majestic voice, "Thank you for saving my sister, but why didn't you send her back directly?"

Bishop Elvis had a half smile on his face.

"Your Highness Helen, apart from this necklace, we also found some interesting things on the Countess."

Helen had a bad feeling in her heart, "What is it?"

"Magic power, Your Highness, we found the magic power of a wizard in the Countess."

"absurd!"

The princess scolded severely.

"It's not absurd at all, Your Highness Helen. After all, the matter is of great importance. We asked all the witch-hunting experts stationed in this city to confirm, but they all came to the same conclusion - Lady Fanny is a witch, or is walking On the way to the witch."

Helen stood up suddenly, "She is only an eleven-year-old child."

Elvis immediately said: "It's an eleven-year-old child, but it's also an eleven-year-old witch~www.readwn.com~ Being young doesn't mean you can ignore her crimes."

"Sin? She would feel guilty for stepping on an ant to death for a long time! Even if she found magic power in her body, it was because she was lured by a xiéè witch. She didn't know what it meant!"

"Your sister does claim to know nothing, but as you know, Your Highness, wizards are always good at deceiving and deceiving people."

Helen stared at Elvis coldly: "I will let the Grand Duke propose kàngyì to the Archbishop of Jiaowan!"

The bishop smiled, without any worried expression on his face, "You don't need to bring out the archbishop to suppress me. The archbishop will definitely stand on the same side as me when it comes to the attitude towards wizards."

Helen was very anxious, she wanted to immediately ask someone to detain this rebellious and rude guy in front of her, and then mobilize people to search for people in the Niceborg Cathedral.

But she calmed down. After her sister fell into the hands of the church, although they didn't send her back, they didn't publicize it either.

Thinking about it carefully, Fanny is a nobleman with a high status after all, the wife and sister of the Duke of Eaton. No matter how arrogant the church is, it dare not make a decision on its own. This will arouse the anger of the entire Horn Bay nobles.

Helen calmed down her heartbeat, and her tone regained her composure.

"May I ask how Mr. Bishop plans to deal with the sister-in-law?"

"Disposition? Your Highness is serious."

"Don't you treat so-called 'wizards' by tying them to the stake and burning them to death?"

Elvis shook his head again and again: "That's the treatment of ordinary commoner wizards. For a noble person like Lady Fanny, she is just going astray. There are no such examples before. We usually let their family members Strict discipline, close your doors and think about your mistakes, and go back to the right path."

"After all, you nobles are always privileged!"

This sentence has a strong sense of irony.
