"The First Kindred Novel ( Find the latest chapter!

The colorful glazed glaze flickered brightly under the illumination of the holy light, and the sculptures of seven first-generation paladins watched the people in the hall on both sides of the hall.

The four walls in the hall were decorated with frescoes full of religious meaning, and the seats on both sides were filled with the nobles of the imperial capital who came to observe the ceremony.

The melodious sound of praise poems echoed in the hall, and a solemn atmosphere enveloped the audience.

In the center of the hall, Vera wore a simple white lace dress with bare feet, a pure white iris wreath on top of her head, and long golden hair hanging from her shoulders.

The holy light projected from the dome of the church gave her beautiful face a dreamlike color.

咚——咚——咚——

Vera walked slowly towards the holy water pool in front of him at the beat of the bell.

The hymn's voice still echoed in the hall:

"What day today, I have decided;

What I have is tied to my lord.

This agreement is established and will never go back;

He alone deserves, all revered.

The blood of atonement washes my sins;

The living water of life, give me a new life! "

By the sacred pool, Pope Gregory with a kind smile on his face watched Vera approaching step by step.

When Vera stepped into the pool with her feet, the pope spoke, and a majestic voice echoed in the hall:

"Lost lamb, suffering sinner, Vera St. Hild, are you willing to put aside the prejudices and falsehoods of the past, and serve the Lord of Glory with all your heart, never repenting, and endless death?"

Vera raised her head, fixedly looking at the pope's eyes that seemed to penetrate people's hearts, and said firmly:

"I do."

The pope nodded, motioned Vera to move forward, and said in his mouth:

"Dip into this pool and you will be separated from the filth;

Dip into this pool and your sins will be washed away;

Dip into this pool and you will be clean again..."

When Vera was immersed in the holy water, the pope stretched out his right hand, placed it on the surface of the pool, and said loudly:

"May the glory of our Lord shine on your future path!"

Hum——

The holy light that fell from the sky suddenly became extremely dazzling, and a magnificent breath enveloped everyone in it.

Colin could even feel a downward glance projected from the top of his head, like a shining mighty sky, making mortals afraid to look directly.

Under this gaze, everyone in the church was like an ant, trembling in fear and trembling.

I don't know how long it took, that gaze finally disappeared, and the holy light that filled the whole church hall gradually dissipated.

Colin couldn't hide his shock, and asked Baron Heidegger next to him: "Does the baptism ceremony presided over by the Pope attract the attention of the Glory Lord?"

"No." Baron Heidegger pulled a sneer at the corner of his mouth, "Only when the Pope needs it...and, are you sure that is the gaze of the Lord of Radiance?"

Colin was taken aback for a moment, and wondered: "If it weren't for the gaze of the gods, what would it be?"

Baron Heidegger suddenly said nothing.

Colin had no choice but to turn his gaze back to the center of the hall. At this time, Vera had stood up straight from the holy water, her soaked clothes outlined her exquisite curve, but fortunately, there was still a circle of mist around the holy pool, blocking it. The rude gazes around him.

A female priest hurried forward and put a white robe on Vera.

Vera then walked out of the holy pool and thanked Pope Gregory.

Pope Gregory said with a smile, "Miss Vera, you are the one who has been watched by my lord, and you will be blessed in the future."

Vera seemed to be at a loss, and quickly said, "Praise my lord! I am ashamed of such glory."

"No. My lord will not misunderstand people." Pope Gregory said profoundly, "Miss Vera, you will find your own mission! To repay my lord's grace!"

After saying this, Pope Gregory turned and left.

This concludes the baptism ceremony.

Colin stepped forward, helped Vera straighten her damp hair, and asked, "Is it cold?"

Vera shook her head and asked in a bewildered tone: "Colin, I seemed to hear someone say something in my ear just now."

"Oh? What are you talking about?" Colin was slightly surprised and asked quickly.

"I can't remember." Vera's pretty face was full of confusion, and the droplets of water from the hair tip made her look like a hibiscus blooming in the water, beautifully beautiful.

"Then don't think too much." Colin smiled, and was about to take Vera away when he saw Emperor Reinhardt and Queen Midella walking slowly.

"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness the Queen!" The two hurriedly saluted and greeted.

Emperor Reinhardt waved his hand to indicate that the two of them don't need to be polite, and then smiled and said to Vera: "How is it? Do you feel the power of our lord?"

"Well, I feel it."

A complicated look appeared on the face of Emperor Reinhardt, but he quickly put on a kind smile and nodded:

"Well, take a good rest today, and tomorrow morning, I will canonize you as Duke of the North in the Phoenix Palace."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Queen Midella stepped forward at this moment and took Vera's hand and said, "I'll take you to change into a clean dress."

"Thank auntie."

When the two walked away, Emperor Reinhardt suddenly said to Colin: "Listen to Baron Heidegger, you want food support and tax relief?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. The situation in the North is more difficult. If the central government of the empire can give some help, then the Saint Hild family will be grateful!"

Emperor Reinhardt shook his head and said: "The empire's finances are not rich, and I can't promise you anything. However, I have a suggestion."

"Please speak."

"The Eastern Border has always been rich, and I haven't suffered a swordsman disaster for so many years. The grain accumulated in the warehouse is even jealous when I look at it. Therefore, you can consider buying from the Eastern Border or owe some grain on credit."

Colin blinked and said with a wry smile: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that the East Territory may not be willing."

Emperor Reinhardt smiled and patted Colin on the shoulder, and said, "It depends on your ability."

Colin looked at Emperor Reinhardt's gloomy gaze, feeling helpless.

He knew that the other party was still intimidating him to advance to the East. As for whether the North could afford to fight the East, perhaps Emperor Reinhardt wouldn't care at all.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I will try my best to'persuade' the East."

Emperor Reinhardt smiled indifferently, as if he understood what Colin meant, he suddenly said: "By the way, remember to bring Harrison and let him learn more from you."

Colin wanted to say that if there is no eye on the battlefield, you are not afraid of what happens to your son?

Of course, Colin would certainly not be stupid enough to say this.

At this time, Vera also changed her clothes and walked over with Queen Midella talking and laughing.

Colin took Vera's hand, and the two said goodbye to the emperor and queen together.

After they left, Emperor Reinhardt asked quietly: "How is it?"

Queen Midella nodded, her expression a bit solemn.

Emperor Reinhardt's expression suddenly turned a little sullen, and he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Damn Gregorian! He's blasphemous!"

Queen Midella was silent.

Emperor Reinhardt's eyes were fierce, and he seemed to have made up his mind: "It's too late to cancel tomorrow's canonization ceremony now!"

"You are crazy! The Senate has approved Vera's inheritance right!"

"So what? I already have a way to deal with the Senate."

"That won't work either! This will seriously damage your prestige, and it will chill the other Paladin families!"

Emperor Reinhardt's tone was full of anxiety, and he said angrily: "What do you say?"

After thinking about it for a moment, Queen Midella said: "Colin Angele, we can use him to control the North Territory!"

Emperor Reinhardt sneered: "Do you think that letting Harrison and Judy be his teacher will make him work hard for us?"

"No, I have a way."

"any solution?"

Queen Midella did not answer the question of Emperor Reinhardt, but said indifferently: "If you still trust me, don't ask more."

Emperor Reinhardt squinted his eyes, his expression gloomy, and seemed to be caught in the struggle between heaven and man.

After a long while, he finally smiled and said: "Of course I believe you, my queen!"

"Then wait for my good news."

After speaking, Queen Midella swung her waist lightly, and walked out pingtingly.
