Chapter 483 Returning to the church

I wanted to actually help Rose in managing my territory, but…she didn't have anything for me to do.

In fact, the way that she said it almost made it seem like she thought I was a nuisance instead of being helpful…

It really stung, but I couldn't argue with her.

There weren't many things that I could do to help when it came to managing the territory.

All I could do was some of the menial stuff and there were plenty of people that were available for that.

So other than showing my face for important events, there really wasn't much for me to do.

So I was allowed to do what I wanted even though I wanted to help, as long as I didn't get in the way. But whenever I tried doing anything, I would be in the way and they would let me know.

Rose had really trained her subordinates well that they didn't even fear me as their lord. They just gave me their brutal and honest opinions.

That was what I wanted to see since it was much more effective, but that didn't mean that it didn't hurt.

The next place that I tried was Haley's place and…it was the same.

Perhaps if I didn't go anywhere and learned how to help with her business, I might have been able to help her. However, they were just far too busy with the new businesses that I brought that they didn't have the time to teach me.

Just like with Rose's subordinates, Haley's subordinates had also been well trained and didn't hesitate to tell me the brutal truth, sending me on my way.

So in the end, there wasn't anything for me to do to help even though I wanted to help.

With the free time on my hands, I decided to do something that I wanted to do.

There was something that had been bugging me since the capital, so I went to a place where I thought that I would be able to get an answer for the questions in my heart.

I came to the church.

This church was the one that had been in the town all along and it was run by the priest who had helped us during the beast wave.

But after that incident, he had been keeping to himself in the church.

We never bothered him and he never bothered us, both of our sides just did what we wanted to do.

Though I did hear from Rose that the priest had wanted to meet me.

After all, I had something that he was very interested in.

When I arrived at the church, I found that there were quite a few people that were here.

It seemed that the people of my territory were quite religious and came to pray when they had the time.

When they saw me, there were many of them that waved and greeted me.

These were old residents of my territory who had been with us since the beginning.

They were already used to the casual manner that I had and greeted me whenever they saw me. They knew that I wasn't like the other nobles, who couldn't be approached that easily.

With the commotion that we were creating, it didn't take long before the priest's attention was drawn.

When he saw that it was me, he immediately came over with a wide smile and said, "My lord, is there anything that I can help you with today?"

I told the others that I had some business with the priest and once we were alone, I said, "I have something that I wanted to talk to you about, alone."

The priest was surprised to hear this, but he didn't mind as he said with a nod, "Alright, let's go talk in my office."

I gave a nod and followed the priest into the back of the church.

Once we entered his office, I couldn't help looking at the cross inside.

I was waiting to see if there was anything that was going to happen with it.

However, not a single thing happened.

We sat down at the coffee table and he made some tea before sitting down to ask me, "My lord, what is it that you wanted to talk about?"

I brought my hand up and placed it on the table before saying, "It's this."

The priest's eyes immediately lit up when he heard this since this was what he had been hoping would happen.

He had wanted to examine this Mark of God the entire time, but since I had been gone, he never got the chance.

And of course, it wasn't as if he could just summon me to come to the church to let him examine it.

So he had no choice but to send letters with requests and wait for me to come.

Now that he had this chance, he naturally wouldn't let it go.

With that wide smile on his face, the priest leaned over the table and brought his face right up towards the Mark of God.

The look on his face really made me want to pull my hand away, but I kept it there in the end as I let him examine it.

After looking at it for a while, the priest finally said, "Is there something particular you want to discuss about this Mark of God?"

I gave a nod before using my other hand to pull out something from my Spatial Ring.

As soon as this thing was pulled out, the priest deeply knitted his brows as he pulled his eyes away from the Mark of God on my hand and turned to look at the thing in my other hand.

I just brought this thing onto the table and said, "It's this that I want to discuss."

The priest knitted his brows even more as he said, "My lord, what is the meaning of this? How could you bring this item into a sacred place like this?"
