Come to another world and become a lord

Chapter 180 Eleanor's Anger

Eleanor, the bishop of the Reik Territory, stood on the top of the castle of Snow Rock City, overlooking the entire town, her heart filled with anger. When she first heard the word "Blood Cult", she didn't care that much. She knew Carl's current combat strategy and the enemy they were facing.

After the vampires were defeated on the front battlefield, they turned to infiltrating the city, but even so, she still believed that Carl could come up with a countermeasure and ultimately destroy these monsters.

However, everything that happened in the past month made her feel depressed. In just one month, the Blood Cult went from being an unknown small group to being known to everyone. People talked about it and even praised it. The once quiet streets of Snow Rock City were now filled with an incomprehensible fanaticism. Now this threat has even affected the church. Fewer and fewer people come to church to worship every week. More and more people have lost their fear of God and instead turned their heads to believe the lies of vampires.

In Eleanor's eyes, the existence of the Blood Cult was a cancer that gradually devoured the faith and order of the city. She had walked through the slums of Snow Rock City countless times, watching those who were once devout to the Church of Light now wholeheartedly follow the evil cult. She clearly remembered those men and women with empty eyes, holding the mysterious red liquid in their hands and muttering blasphemous prayers. She knew what it was, the blood of vampires! This was simply challenging her bottom line!

She had tried to talk to these people and persuade them to return to the right path, but she was met with indifference and rejection. She saw that many people who were once firm in their faith were now bewitched by the Blood Cult and fell into depravity.

"This is blatant blasphemy! This is all a conspiracy of vampires!"

What she could not accept the most was the change in Carl's attitude. Ever since meeting the third prince, Carl seemed to have fallen into a state of decadence.

He not only stopped fighting with Ford, but also began to turn a blind eye to the chaos of the Blood Cult. This made her feel disappointed. The Lord gave her a revelation that the man in front of her should be different. She believed in him, so much so that she stood by his side during the days in Rick Castle, and even deceived the Church for him and condoned the existence of the mage.

However, this time, she felt that she had crossed the line. After all, mages were only human beings, and vampires...

She rushed into his study almost angrily and asked the reason.

"Lord Carl, if you continue to do nothing about this matter, I will write directly to the Holy See and report the situation here in detail!" She rarely stood up in front of the other party.

However, the answer I got was:

"Then let's do it~" Karl was sitting in the study reading a book. After hearing her words, he put down the book in his hand and said calmly.

"What?" Eleanor was stunned for a moment.

Then she heard Karl say:

"Notify the Holy See and tell the Pope what happened here. The Holy See will decide how to deal with it."

When Eleanor left the study, shock and anger were intertwined on her face. Karl's calm attitude made her feel at a loss. She thought her threats would prompt him to take action, but he actually accepted the decision of her letter to the Holy See. This was an outcome she had never expected.

She walked silently through the long corridor, unable to calm down for a long time. His tone seemed to hope that the Vatican would intervene, but why?

At night, she returned to the church, took out the most precious parchment of the Church, and wrote a harsh letter herself. This letter was sent directly to the Pope, describing in detail the rampant behavior of the Blood Cult in Torrentso and Carl's inaction. She described the various evil deeds of the Blood Cult one by one, including how they used vampire blood to corrupt the hearts of the people. She asked the Pope to send an envoy to intervene immediately and completely eradicate the evil forces of the Blood Cult.

After sending the letter, Eleanor's heart was not at peace. She knew that this action might bring unpredictable consequences. For some reason, she even felt betrayed, as if she had betrayed Carl. But for the sake of faith and to purify this land, she had no choice.

All this was exactly what Karl wanted to see. When the carrier pigeon carrying the letter flew out from the top of the church tower, Karl was gazing at the sky. He saw the bird spread its wings and flew towards the sky until it disappeared.

"She wrote?"

"Yes." The sorceress Amira nodded.

"All we have to do now is wait." Carl nodded, and then calmly sat down at the table. Make peace with Ford? The other party is a vampire, and in his eyes, there is no option for peace, especially since Isabel has deeply infiltrated Torrentso and set up the so-called Blood Cult to deceive people.

It should be said that the other party did have some means, forming a religious belief group, curing people's illnesses, winning over believers, and improving prestige. This trick has been used in rebellion since ancient times. Their current purpose is very clear, which is to overthrow his rule from the bottom up. And now it has indeed worked. The people regard him as a saint. If he forcibly suppresses it, it will only cause the wrath of heaven and the resentment of the people. Why should he be the bad guy? In addition, the pressure from the king has eliminated the possibility of him continuing to resist.

In this regard, this trick is indeed powerful. If it were just Carl himself, he would have no way to deal with it.

But these vampires have overlooked another more important existence: the church!

In this world, the power of the church has always been in a delicate balance with the secular lords. Most of the time, they even hold the judicial and trial powers. These monks and priests are no pushovers.

A group of vampires actually dared to set up a religion. This was clearly a slap in the face of the church. Once the top officials of the Vatican knew about it, they would never stand idly by.

What will happen next? He can foresee it all, religious trials, even holy wars! In a word, magic must be used to defeat magic. They will not stop until rivers of blood are shed, and he just needs to be a spectator.

Then he thinks of something else and says to Amira:

"By the way, have the Northern Inquisition prepare as well. You should receive direct orders from the top brass of the Church soon. You will just need to cooperate then."

A week later, the envoy from the Holy See finally arrived at Xueyan City. He was wearing the red robes that were unique to cardinals, and his personal guards were also dressed in gorgeous armor. His arrival caused a sensation throughout Xueyan City, and believers in the city knelt down beside him, as if they had seen the dawn of salvation. The bishop's entourage was huge and solemn, which made people feel awe.

Eleanor stood at the church door of Snow Rock City to welcome the Vatican envoy. Her heart was filled with anticipation and nervousness. Finally, someone from the Vatican had arrived! And all this blasphemy and farce would eventually end.
