The more they object, the more it means I did the right thing.

Chapter 8 Does this guy know how to bribe?

The old priest turned into the church, first met several deacons, and then stood on tiptoe to look inside.

When you complete an achievement for the first time, if the god you believe in is optimistic about you, he will give you the corresponding title.

For example, the Mother Goddess of Life’s first sacrifice, or the Glory Holy See’s first prayer——

All titles given by the gods are essentially the same and can only be distinguished by their names: for example, the title given by the evil god sounds very evil, while the title given by the righteous god sounds very righteous.

God-given titles are rare. Even the largest church in their border city can only have one in a month.

The old priest saw from a distance the priest Lu Wen who was on duty: this gentleman has always been diligent and hard-working, and he is the last to return home even in winter. Following beside him was the quasi-saintess Luojia.

The old priest couldn't see clearly who Lord Lu Wen was talking to.

As soon as he saw Mr. Lu Wen and Mr. Luojia, he was ready to greet them first: This is also the reason why the old priest has been able to work at the door for so long. He knows how to watch people's words and has a keen eye for things.

If someone above him catches his eye, he might become a quasi-saint.

"Excuse me, could I borrow it?"

There was a smile on the corner of the priest's mouth, and the wrinkles on his head were almost squeezed aside, which could be called amiable. He said goodbye to the believers next to him, and then squeezed to Lord Lu Wen's side.

"Your Majesty Lu Wen."

He made the sign of a cross on his hands, folded it on his chest, bowed first, and then took off his hat to greet the quasi-saint Luojia, "Your Majesty Luojia, may the sacred light shine on you two."

"Hello." Luo Jia didn't know who the old man was, so he nodded coldly in response.

Her attention was no longer here.

Luo Jia pursed her thin lips slightly and stared at someone. There was some confusion in her golden eyes, and she tilted her head, like a cat that was surprised by the world.

"Father Danny," Lu Wen did remember the old man's name, "Hello."

"I wonder which talent has won the favor of the goddess? Can you introduce him to me?"

The old priest said complimentarily, "That's such an honor."

After he finished speaking the auspicious words, he turned around and looked around with detection magic.

Detection magic is the lowest level of magic. Even ordinary people can use it. It basically does not consume magic points.
The effect is also very simple, that is, you can see the title of the person who has been blessed, and an introduction to the title.

The old priest scanned the surrounding believers, looking for the person blessed by the goddess, who was not Deacon John's nephew, nor the young lady from Sonny's family.
Wait, Father Danny also saw the man, blinking his eyes in disbelief. His movements were also very funny, and the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes relaxed as his eyelids turned.

"Hello." Ansu walked over with a bright smile and said to him with a smile.

There are three big characters on the top of the head: [Newborn]

Father Danny suddenly felt bad.

Compared with Danny's shock, Miss Luojia was even more confused.

What is the title of Newborn?
But it sounds quite positive.

The first birth gives people that feeling of vitality.

She, Luojia, also received a title when she prayed for the first time, and that title was quite shining: [The star that shines on Naraku's future]

The reason why Luojia was surprised was not because someone prayed for the first time and received the title of God-given—as a quasi-saint, she had seen a lot.

But the person who received the goddess's blessing was Ansu.

In my memory, this was the first time in the border church that the goddess of radiance blessed the child of the curse.

Maybe, Ansu is really pure and kind in his heart - Luojia thought.

Look at his title introduction:
[Introduction to the title: He has such a heart at such a young age. If he doesn’t get rid of him, he will become a giant in the Holy See in the future]

That sacrifice to the Mother Goddess of Life was probably a helpless move he came up with to save them. "Young man." Priest Lu Wen said to Ansu kindly and patted his shoulder, "You are a child of the Morning Star family. Congratulations. You really exceeded our expectations."

"Your Majesty the Priest,"

Ansu recognized the priest's emblem on Lu Wen's body, which was a sun with violet tattoos around it, so he knew this person's identity.
"May the goddess bless you."

After saying that, he turned around again, made the sign of the cross to Luojia and performed the sacrament, "Your Majesty Luojia, we meet again."

Ansu winked proudly at Luojia.

The way Luo Jia looked at him, there was a warm smile on the corner of the young man's mouth. His long gray hair fell on his shoulders, and his blue eyes were as clean as the sky washed by rain.

"Hello." She deliberately said to Ansu coldly with a straight face.

"Believers who receive blessings after praying for the first time may not necessarily pass the saint test, but they will definitely receive blessings from the goddess if they pass the saint test." Priest Lu Wen said with a smile, "I am looking forward to your performance in one month. .”

"I'm honored." Ansu said.

The old priest was now sandwiched among several people and felt uncomfortable doing anything.

Especially when he was making things difficult for Ansu before.

He wanted to sneak away quietly while the few people were chatting happily, but he never thought that before he could take a step, Ansu's words changed.

"To be honest, I have always longed for the holy church,"

Ansu said, "I wanted to contribute to our Lord's holy cause, so I brought a tithe. Mr. Priest, please return to me the gold coins I left with you for safekeeping."

As soon as these words came out, the church fell silent.

Priest Lu Wen narrowed his eyes slightly.

Father Danny froze completely.

He stared at Ansu in disbelief, not expecting that the latter would dare to say such words. Was he trying to break the principle of silence and report him?

This is the relationship between giving and receiving bribes. Is this the first time this kid has given a bribe?

According to the canon law of the Holy See, neither giving nor receiving bribes is allowed.

According to the canon rules, even if Danny deliberately made things difficult for Ansu, Ansu could not bribe or give private gifts to the teaching staff.

Anyone who commits such an act, regardless of the reason, will be excommunicated.

So Danny accepted the money, feeling reassured that this kid wouldn't dare to report it.

In fact, Danny has collected money from those noble children more than once, and he has never made any mistakes.

He was barefoot and not afraid of those who wore shoes. He just lost his job, and those aristocratic children were found guilty of bribery, and what they lost was their status as quasi-saints.

The most important thing is that he is not the only one in the Holy See who accepts bribes.

Everyone takes money.

Not only the priests, but also the saints, deacons among the saints, and even several higher-ranking priests, all of whom have more or less exchanges of interests.

This kind of thing is something that no one will tell you when you see through it.

Maybe this guy is stubborn and doesn't understand the principle of silence.
The old priest tried to pretend to be confused, "I don't know what you are talking about. Is this happening? Can you recall it carefully?"

The implication at the moment is that we are grasshoppers on the same rope, so it is best to think carefully before speaking.

After working in this business for so many years, Danny has never spit out the gold coins in his pocket.
