There’s Absolutely No Problem With The Magic Cards I Made!-Chapter 202
Although I had my doubts, I first replied:
【What's wrong?】
Soon.
The Falsehood Bishop replied almost instantly.
I saw several large characters displayed on Clay's Bishop's Certificate:
【You're such an idiot...】
After receiving this message, no more messages came from the Falsehood Bishop.
"I get scolded for this too?"
Feeling a little wronged, I put down Clay's Bishop's Certificate and sat on the edge of the bed, lost in thought.
This fellow Clay... could it be that he deserted his post and ran to the Randil Kingdom on his own?
And it seemed like he had disrupted some of the Falsehood Bishop's plans?
Wasn't this a bit too much freedom?
Just like that, I waited for about ten minutes, but I didn't see any more replies from the Falsehood Bishop.
...
Inside a church in the Empire.
A figure dressed in clerical attire stood quietly on the pulpit.
In his hand, he held a seal, and imprinted on it was the mark of the Falsehood Bishop.
Soon, a figure appeared silently behind the Falsehood Bishop.
However, the Falsehood Bishop showed no signs of panic.
This was the confidant he had just urgently ordered to gather intelligence.
"My lord, the Kingdom Federation has detected four bishops gathered in the Randil Kingdom and has already initiated the highest level of response."
The confidant reported respectfully.
"Four? Are you sure?"
The Falsehood Bishop turned his head, unable to hide his surprised expression as he asked.
Apart from the Corrupt Bishop he had sent.
Counting their target—the Bishop of Agony, Dekan.
And the Frenzy Bishop, Clay, who had stumbled in by mistake, there should only be three bishops!
"This is intelligence that our informant in the Kingdom Federation just risked his life to send, and before reporting to you, this subordinate also verified it with the intelligence personnel in the Randil Kingdom. It is indeed four."
The confidant answered with a confident tone.
This left the Falsehood Bishop stunned on the spot.
After a few breaths, he finally came back to his senses and said:
"You may leave."
"Yes."
The confidant's figure disappeared from the church along with his voice.
Only the Falsehood Bishop remained, standing silently on the pulpit.
He tightly gripped the Bishop's Certificate in the hand behind his back.
After some thought, he had probably figured out what was going on.
So he picked up the Bishop's Certificate and sent another message to Clay:
【Did any other bishops go with you?】
【Nope.】
The Frenzy Bishop's side replied quickly.
Clay's reply made the Falsehood Bishop's heart sink even further.
The Falsehood Bishop sent:
【Listen to my commands from now on. Do not act on your own, and do not trust any other bishop. Be careful of the traitor.】
The Frenzy Bishop replied:
【Traitor?】
The Falsehood Bishop suppressed his anger and quickly typed on the Bishop's Certificate:
【I originally only arranged for Fahim to go to the Randil Kingdom to frame Dekan. Now, I've heard that four bishops have arrived in the Randil Kingdom. Besides you, Fahim, and Dekan, don't you think the other one who went on his own is the traitor we've been looking for?】
After sending this message, the Falsehood Bishop seemed a bit weary. He walked down from the pulpit, sat on a pew, and covered his face with his hands.
Their original plan was to first frame Dekan with the crime of being the Bishop of Agony, and then the forces of the Resurrection Church and the Northern Kingdoms would attack together, regardless of the truth, killing anyone who stood in their way. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚
After executing Dekan under the banner of justice, even if there was an injustice, the Northern Kingdoms could completely shift the blame, saying it was the Resurrection Church's doing.
And if there was no injustice, the Northern Kingdoms could reap the merit of eliminating a bishop and then turn around to bite the Norton Kingdom.
However.
Someone was secretly trying to help Dekan.
Which meant a traitorous bishop had also secretly come to the Randil Kingdom!
This brought the number of bishops in the Randil Kingdom to 3, enough to alert the Kingdom Federation, causing a change in the situation that neither the Resurrection Church nor the Northern Kingdoms had anticipated!
This had, to a certain extent, disrupted the conspiracy of the Resurrection Church and the Northern Kingdoms.
In the original plan for this operation.
To guard against the traitor, the Falsehood Bishop had been extra cautious and did not disclose the information to other unrelated bishops.
But he had calculated everything except for one thing.
Clay had an impulse and followed through on "speaking his mind and doing what he says."
The Falsehood Bishop did remember that Clay had indeed made a harsh statement at the bishops' meeting—
"As long as Dekan dares to leave the Norton Kingdom, even at the risk of being locked onto by the Astrologer, I will go and punch a hole in his chest!"
And just like that.
Clay became the last straw that broke the Falsehood Bishop's psychological defense.
Because of Clay's freelancing, the Randil Kingdom had gathered 4 bishops.
Successfully triggering the Kingdom Federation's highest level of alert.
As a result, they could no longer proceed according to their plan.
Not long after.
Another message came from the Frenzy Bishop on the Falsehood Bishop's certificate:
【Then isn't Minos the most suspicious one?】
【I have suspected her, but I hope it's not her, because she is too important to us. Additionally, the Pontiff has reviewed the content of her communications with Dekan and found no issues. Although she may seem flippant, she is indeed a person with a bottom line.】
The Falsehood Bishop replied.
In fact, the Pontiff had already returned but deliberately did not turn off Dekan's chat permissions.
Because the Pontiff was fishing with entrapment.
However, according to the Pontiff's observations, in the vapid conversations between Dekan and Minos, they only occasionally shared card-making techniques and never touched upon intelligence regarding the Resurrection Church or the Kingdom Federation.
On the contrary, it made Minos seem upright and fearless.
The Frenzy Bishop sent another message:
【Then couldn't I be the traitor too?】
The Falsehood Bishop was at a loss for words.
Whether you were the traitor or not, your fatal move this time was already pretty much the same as a traitor's.
【Your stupidity doesn't seem like an act.】
The Falsehood Bishop replied.
He really wanted to curse Clay right now.
He even wanted to beat Clay up to vent his anger.
But Clay really didn't seem like a traitor.
This fellow lacked the level of intelligence required to be a spy.
The most important thing now was not infighting, but figuring out how to deal with the problem.
Just as the Falsehood Bishop was about to quell the anger in his heart.
He saw another message from Clay:
【Lend me 5000 gold coins first, or I won't follow your orders.】
Seeing this message, the Falsehood Bishop's hand finally couldn't help but tremble.
He suppressed his explosive rage and typed:
【Give me your account information.】
After receiving the bank account from Clay, the Falsehood Bishop summoned his confidant and instructed him to transfer 5000 gold coins to Clay.
Afterward.
The Falsehood Bishop sat on the long pew, pressing his temples, muttering to himself as if chanting a scripture:
"Clay, when this is over, I'm not killing anyone else, just you..."
