I Became the illegitimate son of a duke

76 – University (2)

“Ah… Ah…”

Crazy, crazy, crazy.

I was so ecstatic yesterday that I didn’t know, but now that I think about it, I was too bold.

I get chills all over my body when I think of the lowly eyes of the servants and attendants who saw me walking with the saint. It’s so hard to suppress the corners of your mouth that try to go up on their own.

“Huh…”

Even though I learned from Armand and knew everything, I purposely pretended that I couldn’t handle tools properly. A little bit of food is smeared in his mouth to look like a pun.

Seeing me like that, the saint treated me like a lover and took care of me one by one, and the feeling of being taken care of was truly the best. The touch of the skin I touched at that time is still very vivid.

Jeanne runs her hand over her mouth, recalling the feeling of the saint’s handkerchief touching her mouth.

“It’s going well.”

We just need to go this way.

Since the saint is kind and cannot pass by the weak, I have to draw the attention of the saint by acting as the weak.

If you build your bond with the Holy Son step by step like that, one day I will be able to take the place of the two witch b*tches and get rid of those evil b*tches without any hindrance.

Anyway, when that time comes, the saint will love me more than the witches, so of course he will choose me.

Okay, now it’s your turn to be religious.

“Our Father in Heaven—”

Having roughly finished her plans for her future, Jeanne erases all her thoughts in an instant and prays to God to bless the two of us.

The faint voice of prayer, which does not match the dreary atmosphere of the prison, fills the prison.

“Your Majesty, I heard you’re building a university.”

What is it, you bastard?

It seems like half a day has passed since she told Luca that she would set up a university, but suddenly a cardinal bursts into her office and tells her about it.

I’m not a person who works in my palace, I’m not a guest, I’m not a person who manages Rotaring’s church like Armand, and even more so I didn’t ask for an audience, but seeing my confident attitude, I didn’t realize that I had made a mistake at all. It seems there is no

Or are you just wearing an iron plate and sticking to it without knowing anything?

“Oh, yes. Is it related to theology?”

“You’re talking fast. Yes, yes. A university, a treasure trove of knowledge, is newly established, but as the headquarters of faith and an agent of the Seonghwangcheong spreading the right light to the world, we cannot stand still.”

As expected, if the cardinal is coming for a university matter, that’s probably the only one.

If the establishment of an archdiocese is not enough, and it can monopolize the theology of the university, it would be the greatest achievement from the position of the Seonghwangcheong.

“Can the priests who teach theology at universities be filled with people selected by the Holy Office?”

Look at this, they don’t hide their desires at all, they openly reveal them.

To be honest, I want to tell you to eat sh*t.

Churches must be managed by priests dispatched from the Holy Hwangcheong, but universities are not religious facilities, so there is no need to listen to the Holyghwangcheong’s orders. However, if you reject it openly, it will be clear that the rejected person will have a grudge.

First of all, you ask for more on a subject you’ve already received a lot of?

“hahahahaha, the professors to be hired at the newly built University of Dijon plan to prioritize those who are loyal to Jim. There will be many students learning there who will occupy the backbone of Rotaring in the future.”

“…Is that so?”

In a word, there is no reason to accept a foreigner who is more loyal to the business than I am and can’t communicate the language.

Of course, it is very rare for a priest to be more loyal to the monarch than to the emperor, and all the Canaanite Bibles are written in the same language, the ancient imperial language, so even if the priests are foreigners, the case in which I spoke through each other cannot be established. Does not exist.

Of course, this cardinal is very well aware of that fact, but he has not shown any action to refute my claim.

That’s right, the important thing in my words is not the sound that comes into my ears, but the true meaning contained in them, [You’ve already received what you deserved, what more do you want, don’t think about spitting and go away].

“Of course, the Holy Office will consult with you on the theology and professors that will be taught at the university, because it is impossible to discuss theology without the Holy Office. .”

“Mmm… Thank you for your kindness.”

Cardinal, thinking about something briefly, nods his head and smiles.

You might be assuming that since Bona Mana College and the Provincial Archdiocese are close by, you will be able to fully control the theological education at the university.

‘There’s no way I’ll let that happen.’

In the first place, you said you would seek advice, not permission, right? It is not uncommon for those in power to ignore the advice of advisors.

I don’t know if that advisor has the power, but as I keep saying, the religious world will lose its power because of heresies springing up like rain, so they can never interfere with me.

Above all, it is very important that the Seonghwangcheong verify the characters after I select them.

If Seonghwangcheong came out with figures and I tested them, the candidate pool would have been filled with Seonghwangcheong figures, and if that happened, it would be very difficult to wash away Seonghwangcheong’s influence in universities.

“By the way, are you building a new building that will become a university? If that happens, manpower and materials will be divided into two, and the construction of the Great Church may be delayed.”

“Ah, there is an unused castle in Dijon, and I am thinking of converting it into a university. Unlike a church, which must be designed for piety purposes, a university, provided the building is large enough, is well divided into areas and furnished with tools and books. Because it works.”

In the vicinity of Dijon, there remains a castle used by the Burgon family hundreds of years ago. Although it is said to have been abandoned after the construction of Dijon Castle, where I am now, it is spacious enough and has many rooms as it was used by the duke in the past.

I don’t know if it’s a university in the future, but it’s enough to make it a university now that there are only 7 subjects. More than anything, if you make fun of that last name, you feel like you’re losing something.

“So about the university… So, the establishment of the Provincial Archdiocese is going well?”

“Yes, Your Majesty. Thanks to Your Majesty’s generosity, we were able to settle on a very good site. The architects we hired were delighted, perhaps because the ground was solid and flat.”

“That’s good.”

It will be a representative building to commemorate my reign, so of course it should be built as large and grand as possible, and to do so, shouldn’t it be given a large and decent site?

Of course, the construction will take a long time, so it is good that the establishment of the Archdiocese can be delayed as much as possible.

Please build a masterpiece that will go down in history.

Kikiiikㅡ

“aaa How are you?”

“…”

“… Huh?”

I finished my work and went to the room where Chloe and Ines were, but there was no response.

Is everyone sleeping? It’s sunset, but the sun is still up.

“Oh, you’re sleeping.”

The two beds at either end of the room are each covered with a thick blanket. He’s probably sleeping with a blanket covering his head.

Umm… Even if you’re not full yet, you seem to lose a lot of stamina when you’re pregnant. I’m sorry I couldn’t pay more attention.

‘Don’t interfere and go out carefully.’

“?”

Suddenly, there is a sound of a door closing behind you. If you see that there are even vibrations that come up through your skin, you are not mistaken.

What is it? There is no way the door will close by itself.

“West.”

“Brother.”

“Haaa!

At that time, I heard the voices of Chloe and Ines in my left and right ears at the same time. It gives me goosebumps as if the wind is blowing in my ears.

No, isn’t it a wind problem? Even the tone feels very cold for some reason-

Boom!

“Ugh?!”

At that time, my eyes suddenly went dark and my head fell to the ground at the same time.

In addition, the two arms, which were moving freely until just now, do not move while being firmly attached to the body, and the feet, which should have been planted on the floor, are also firmly attached to each other and stepping on the air.

‘Kuh… Is that a blanket?’

The texture that rubs against the face and the back of the hand are exactly the same.

Perhaps the whole body is wrapped in a thick dark blanket. And the culprits who did it were Chloe and Ines.

“What’s wrong?! What’s going on here?”

Two heavy objects are placed on top of my body, which has become cocooned by the blanket.

These familiar weights and shapes are… Chloe and Ines.

“You’re kidding too much.”

I want to throw this blanket away and find out why they are doing this, but my hands and arms don’t move at all.

I feel like something is wrapping around my wrist and arm.

‘Ugh…?!’

At that time, I felt a cold stare pierce me.

Obviously it’s normal that you’re covered in a blanket and can’t feel any stares. What the hell…

Because of that, goosebumps ran up all over my body, and at the same time, I heard the voices of the two.

“The West…”

“Brother…”

“”Because I was wrong.””

“What is that… Hey, hey!”

I wanted to ask more because he suddenly said something incomprehensible, but I couldn’t.

The blanket, which had been wrapped around the body except for the feet, was rolled up little by little, then stopped at the waist, and the pants were pulled down in contrast.

Two hands touch bare legs.

“What are you doing? If you want something like that, just tell me—”

“ㅡup!!”

I can’t speak anymore because something is pressing on my face.

Only one part of the body moves vigorously in a situation where vision is blocked and the whole body is tied up and unable to move.

It was four hours later that I was released.
