Heroes of Silver Moon

The door of the cathedral opened with a bang, and priests, nuns, priests, and priests filed out, making the final preparations before the ceremony.

Believers and people also came to the vicinity of the cathedral one after another at this time, kneeling on the ground to pray to the goddess of moonlight.

Merchants and hawkers are also selling their own goods and snacks at the booths booked yesterday.

"Da da, da da", accompanied by the sound of horseshoes, the royal convoy officially arrived, the knights ahead opened the way, and the sheriffs cheered up, and quickly directed the people to make way.

There was bursts of music in the cathedral, and the archbishop personally led a group of senior priests to welcome the king at the gate of the cathedral.

As the representative of the gods, the pope is currently making the final preparations for the celebration, so it is naturally impossible to come out to meet the king, so only the archbishop, the number two figure, can come to welcome the distinguished king.

With the support of the knights, the old king quickly got off the first white carriage, and then the crown prince got off the second carriage.

Then came the third carriage. The Crown Prince's wife, Prince Milani and Princess Irina stepped down gracefully from the third carriage.

In the fourth and fifth carriages, the royal cabinet ministers, the prime minister, the finance minister, the military minister, and the law minister stepped off the last few carriages one after another.

"Time flies, it's another year in a blink of an eye," the old king said with emotion, looking at the lively scene near the cathedral.

"Thanks to you, the kingdom is still peaceful this year." The archbishop followed the king, flattering the king without leaving a trace.

"A piece of peace? Oh, that's right." Knowing that the archbishop was flattering him, the old king laughed at himself.

Although the kingdom seemed to be calm and calm, the struggle behind the scenes was flourishing.

In particular, the noble council formed by the northern lords has gradually begun to put pressure on the southern nobles and royal family.

If it weren't for the consideration of the overall situation of the kingdom, the old king really wanted to take the three major armies directly to the territory of the northern lords to chat.

In all fairness, the northern aristocrats headed by the lords of the northern border are indeed a little too greedy. In order to gain more power, they dared to directly form an aristocratic council without the king's approval.

They were right, the old king would take into account the overall situation of the kingdom, and would not fight with them easily, that's why he dared to be so arrogant.

If there was no threat from the orcs of the Red Scorpion Khanate, how dare they jump out.

Irina followed behind her mother, looking at the cathedral in all kinds of boredom. She would participate in the church celebrations at this time of year, so she was very familiar with the cathedral.

"Sister, I heard that the church has consecrated another holy son this year. I don't know what that holy son looks like." Walking beside Irina, Milani said curiously.

"The identity of the holy son of the church has always been a mystery. He won't reveal his identity until he succeeds the Pope, so don't think too much about it." Irina glanced at her younger brother who was obviously planning some bad idea. , and then said lightly.

"Hey, I just thought about it, how could I spy on someone's real body?" Milani said with a sneer, seeing that the plot was seen through at a glance.

The members of the royal family sat on the viewing platform one after another. The Luna Festival is just a celebration in the mortal world. Naturally, it will not be like the mass held in the cathedral, regardless of status.

Naturally, the members of the royal family would not stay with those commoners, who had a viewing stand specially built by the church.

When the royal family sat down, the nuns brought melons, fruits, nuts and other snacks to the royal family.

Inside the cathedral, the Pope and Simon also made final preparations, so along with the melodious bells, Simon put on a fox mask, followed the Pope, and walked out of the cathedral slowly.

"Brothers and sisters, the annual Luna Festival has officially begun, let us enjoy the grace of the goddess," the Pope shouted loudly, holding up the scepter in his hand.

"Long live Your Majesty the Goddess", the people in the audience cheered and praised the Moonlight Goddess one after another.

The first part of the celebration was the moon worship prayer presided over by the pope. Together with the pope, several priests worshiped the goddess of moonlight with obscure sacrificial rites.

Simon stood at the door of the cathedral, watching the Pope's sacrifice nervously.

There are a total of ten ceremonies in the celebration. The first is the pope's sacrificial prayer, and the next two, three, and four are all to be officiated by the Holy Son, Simon.

As for the remaining six ceremonies, the Pope and several bishops of the church will perform them alternately.

Within ten minutes, the Pope's prayer ended, and a torch the size of a bowl was carried to the door of the cathedral.

After taking the longbow from Cirillo beside him, Simon knew that it was time for him to play.

Robert knelt on the ground, looking curiously at the cathedral~www.readwn.com~, the holy son of the church in fine attire, it is said that this year the holy son will shoot a rocket representing a year's luck.

He wants a pair of cotton shoes this year. I don't know if the Son of God will let him have such good luck this year, Robert thought silently as he touched his frozen soles.

After receiving the arrow wrapped in oilcloth, Simon reached out and lit the arrow with a brazier, and then put the rocket on his longbow.

Feeling countless pairs of eyes falling on him, Simon's palms couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat.

"Goddess of Moonlight, if you really look at this place, then bless me with one shot," Simon murmured, closing his eyes.

As if hearing Simon's prayer, the marble statue of the goddess of moonlight outside the cathedral, under the surprised eyes of everyone, emitted a faint white light and landed on Simon's body.

"Archbishop, the divine grace of this holy son cannot be underestimated!" Looking at the holy light swayed by the statue on Simon, the old king frowned and said.

Although the church and the royal family complement each other, they are completely two systems. He is not worried that Simon will threaten the status of the royal family in the future.

Instead, she was worried about whether the Moonlight Goddess had ulterior motives in conferring a divinely benevolent and tired son at this time. You must know that the Silver Moon Kingdom has been calm for decades!

In this peaceful time, canonizing a holy son who is so full of divine grace, does it mean that danger is about to befall the Silver Moon Kingdom.

Reminiscent of the aristocratic council that has become more and more lively recently, the old king fell into deep sorrow at this moment.

"Well, maybe it's just that the Goddess loves the Holy Son more!" Seeing the old king frowning deeply, the archbishop knew what his Majesty was worried about, so he quickly comforted him.
