What's wrong with a lord daddy who just wants to draw cards?

Chapter 294-293- The Temptation of History
Not long after breakfast, there was a knock on the door.

"I'll open the door." Duomi put down the ancient book, stood up from the luxurious sofa and walked towards the door.

The person who came was an acquaintance - Jie Fuer's guardian knight Scott, a powerful paladin uncle. Domi had a good impression of him, otherwise he would not have allowed him to protect Jie Fuer.

"Mr. Dominic, this is what the saint asked me to give to you."

Scott took out an unknown package wrapped in special cloth from his armor.

Duomi took the package, obviously knowing what was hidden inside, so he accepted it happily, and then looked at Scott:

"Now that you're busy, say hello to the saint for me."

Although Scott was puzzled as to why this famous young talent in mainland China was involved with Jie Fu'er, he still didn't ask more questions out of professional ethics. Maybe the two were childhood sweethearts.

He nodded and left the hotel.

When the door was locked again and Domi sat back in his original seat, Shia curiously cast her eyes on the mysterious package:

"what is this?"

"Although I haven't seen this thing before, it is what we need."

When Domi said this, Shia immediately knew it. She couldn't help but widen her eyes and said in surprise: "Could it be that this is...?!"

Duomi didn't answer, but carefully opened the valuable piece of cloth.

When the cloth was removed and the contents inside were revealed, the brightness of the entire room seemed to increase to a higher level, and it was as dazzling as a small sun.

Now both of them could see its appearance clearly. The so-called 'Cone of Light' was like a solid line of light. It could be held in the hand without feeling any weight.

The two curiously played with this prop, which was regarded as a sacred weapon by the Holy See.

To be honest, apart from this special form, they really couldn't see anything that an artifact should have. It felt like it was just a special prop, and being called an artifact was a bit exaggerated.

After observing it, Duomi wrapped it up again and hid it in the Dark Moon Tide Ring.

Only then did Sia ask:
"Looking at the equipment, the uncle just now should be a high-ranking paladin of the Holy See. Why would the Holy See personally deliver his own artifact to the door like this? Do you know anyone there?"

"Don't underestimate my connections. It's not convenient to reveal who it is. The fewer people who know about it, the better."

Sia knew that there were many methods in this world that could forcibly take out part of the memory, so she nodded in understanding.

Domi actually felt a little unnatural when he said this.

At that time, she was communicating with Jiefuer through a long-distance mental connection and wanted to use her position to facilitate the acquisition of the Cone of Light. She was very happy, but when she knew that Xia was also with her, she immediately got into trouble. It didn't seem to be the case. She looks like she really wants to get in touch with Shia.

So there was a scene where Scott was sent over.

Let’s find another opportunity to repay her in the future…

"This way our short journey will come to an end temporarily."

"This is just incidental, but business is more important."

Sia knew exactly why they came to the Theocracy. This trip was originally an impromptu trip planned by Domi for her. To focus on the trip was to put the cart before the horse.

"Okay, then let's go meet the fourth bishop of the Reformed Church. If we can kill him, we will do it for the people."

The two quietly left the hotel and checked out, then changed into civilian clothes in the dressing room of a random clothing store, and went all the way to a hotel that could be seen everywhere in the east of the city.

According to the information revealed by Campbell, the Fourth Bishop will stay in Room 404 on the fourth floor of this hotel, waiting for Campbell and the Eighth Bishop to obtain the Cone of Light and reunite here.

The two of them observed the area around the hotel for a while and found that there was a room on the fourth floor that had its curtains drawn all the time.So Domi and Sia split up. Sia sat down in the coffee shop opposite the hotel, while Domi came to the front desk of the hotel carrying a small package filled with bread.

The person in charge of the front desk is a young lady who is about 21 years old and has just entered the society. It is estimated that she is also young in her pocket.

If the other party plans to stay there, he will probably give you a small tip for the good service.

The lady thought so.

"Hello sir, how may I serve you?"

At this moment, all the movements at the front desk are watched by the residents of Room 404 through hidden magic.

He carefully observed Domi's every move through magic, including his facial expressions and small movements on his body. Any unnaturalness would be magnified in his eyes, because ordinary people would not notice that magic was monitoring them. .

He was always cautious, and even more so when he waited for the Eighth Bishop and his little followers.

On the other side, Duomi said the words he had prepared:

"How much does it cost per day?"

"It's one papal penny a day, which is a good deal."

Holy See cents are the lower-level currency of the Holy See's coinage. Converted using the currency of the Empire, one cent is equal to five bronze eagles. It is the most commonly used currency by civilians in the Theocracy.

"Please prepare a single room for me." Duomi's expression was very natural, as if he really wanted to live here.

"Okay, how many days do you need to stay? If you stay for a week, we have a discount, and you can waive the accommodation fee for one day!" the lady at the front desk introduced enthusiastically.

"Oh, really!" Domi said in surprise, and then he couldn't wait to take out his not-so-full wallet from his pocket, and carefully poured out six Holy See coins.

"Then I'll stay for seven days!"

"Okay sir, please write your name here...here is your key, your room is 402 on the fourth floor."

402 is just opposite 404, which I have to say is a magical coincidence.

The man at the front desk of 404 raised his eyebrows. Why did he have to live across from him?
He was a little worried, but he couldn't see anything wrong with this guy's facial expressions, movements and language. Maybe he was too sensitive...

Domi walked up the creaky wooden stairs of the hotel step by step until he reached the fourth floor.

The hotel is not big, with only 4 rooms on the first floor.

He came to room 402 and took out the key, opened the door and then closed it without revealing any flaws. The man's surveillance ended here because he did not place magic in other rooms.

This gave Duomi an opportunity to take advantage of.

After confirming that there were no traces of magic in the room, he came to the window, where he could see the coffee shop opposite. Sia, who was sitting by the window, also saw him.

The two nodded to each other, the password was correct.

Soon, a shocking stench emitted from the toilet in room 402, which seemed to have been fermenting for ten days.

Duomi retched and rushed out of his room, but the constipated expression on his face showed that his current situation was not ideal.

Based on the principle of being near, he ran to door 404 and knocked on the door continuously:

"Sir or Madam, please kindly open the door and let me in to use the toilet! Someone pulled the dried a** out of the toilet in my room!! It's everywhere!"
