The first is, of course, to silence others.
Baron Fast may not be considered third-rate in the North.
But in the imperial capital, he was a little nobleman with no reputation.
Even Keira would be under a lot of pressure if such a little person was to serve as the leader of the church's knights in the north.
After all, Lorne's personal strength was only at the level of a knight.
And the title of baron is a bit too low.
Even if the paladin doesn't come forward, anyone the church can find is more qualified than Lorne.
But if Lorne had made a contribution to the church, then things would be different.
So Keira asking Lorne to go to the Island of Heretics can actually be regarded as a gilding method.
Unfortunately, Baron Fast didn't appreciate it that much.
Because he guessed the second reason why Keira asked him to go to the Island of Heresy, after telling His Majesty the Pope about the conspiracy of the Island of Heresy, it was naturally best to send Lorne, a knowledgeable person, to the island to understand the situation. choose.
Thinking on the bright side, if Lorne is allowed to collect intelligence, he can definitely use this to fool Pope Kayla's heart.
But the problem is that Lorne doesn't have that much time to waste, and the weird heretic island is a dangerous area on his blacklist.
Going up so unprepared made the Baron feel uneasy.
He was thinking about whether he could use the incident on the grassland to politely refuse Keira, but since the Pope had proposed it, he was not ready to let Lorne refuse.
"Yes, in the past, nobles from the interior or coastal areas of the empire represented the empire, so this time I plan to use the power of the baron.
I hope the Baron can observe the Island of Heresy from the eyes of a northerner, all for the sake of our empire. " There was a good reason.
Keira looked at Joseph and Anna again without waiting for Lorne to answer.
"Anna and Viscount Chief of Guard, what do you think?
Among the northerners present, there should be no one more suitable for this task than Baron Lorne."
Although there were many northern nobles in the team escorting Anna this time, only Lorne was the lord.
So in terms of status, Baron Fast is indeed second only to Anna, and even Joseph only has a higher position and title than him.
And neither Anna nor Joseph can visit the Island of Heretics as messengers.
As Keira said, Lorne is the most suitable one to travel.
Joseph and Anna who were asked could not find any reason to reject the Pope, especially after Keira became Anna's godmother, the woman had completely suppressed the little girl.
However, Joseph was still familiar with the operation of the Imperial City.
The captain of the guard stepped forward under Lorne's hopeful eyes and said: "Baron Lorne is indeed a suitable candidate, but the team of the Empire's mission to the Heretic Island is usually decided by His Majesty the Emperor. .
If Baron is put in rashly, I'm worried that it will affect the entire team. " As usual, after the birthday celebration is over, the empire will send a team to the island of heresy.
Although the two parties have always had a hostile relationship, this courtesy exchange has not been interrupted since the last emperor.
The Island of Heresy will also send their envoys after the Empire ends its visit.
This is of course to understand each other and collect intelligence, and on the other hand, it is also because the Island of Heresy is actually a human country.
The so-called heretics simply refer to those wizards who claim to have the ability to communicate with gods.
So whether it's the church or the empire, their enemies are just wizards.
If the wizards can be wiped out, then the civilized islanders will naturally become part of the empire.
It is precisely because of this mentality that the empire and the church want to know more about the situation on that island.
It's just that apart from bringing back a lot of novel toys every time the guys sent out, they never made any breakthroughs in the detailed information on the island.
The probe that made no progress has long made the emperor feel tired.
If the mission could not bring back a large number of novel toys from the heresy island to the empire, this kind of strange diplomatic relations should have stopped long ago.
Joseph's news was relatively out of date.
He thought that the Bourbon family attached great importance to communication with the Island of Heresy.
In fact, Keira had already exchanged views with the emperor during the birthday celebration.
This mission will be led by the Holy Light Religion.
It's just that the formal arrangements haven't been made yet, and no one knows about it yet.
But now, it's clearly time for Keira to checkmate Joseph.
"Don't worry, Viscount Chief of Guards.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
I have already discussed with His Majesty the Emperor the team that will go to the Heretic Island.
Furthermore, His Majesty agreed to leave the arrangements for the personnel of this team to the church, so as long as the captain of the guard is willing to lend Baron Lorne, I can let the baron take charge of the affairs of this mission. " Joseph had said earlier that Lorne was a suitable candidate, and the failure of the excuse left him speechless.
As for Anna, she couldn't even find a reasonable excuse.
The little girl who had just become an adult did not have enough capital to fight with an old woman like Keira.
What's more, the place they are in now is quite unfavorable.
The imperial capital is not the northern border.
Anna can neither cheat nor find allies, while looking at Keira, all the nobles in the audience have more or less something to do with the church.
Under the general trend, Lorne had no right to speak at all except to follow the crowd.
Even Keira had even prepared the itinerary for Lorne.
Two days later, he would have to set off to continue south and wait for the next order in Stuart's Deep Blue Castle.
Stuart, another word that made Lorne feel in danger.
However, specific tasks had already been assigned, and Fast, who was pushed out of the position, could only bite the bullet and accepted Keira's appointment.
"What on earth does that woman want to do?
Isn't she afraid of the counterattack of our Habs family?"
The first half of the coming-of-age ceremony was satisfactory to Anna, but everything changed after Keira announced that she would be Anna's godmother.
Especially after even her own vassals were sent to some heretic island, Anna's anger was already on the verge of exploding.
If it weren't for the two middle-aged maids next to the little girl who were holding the girl down secretly, it is estimated that these words would not have been vented to Lorne and Joseph behind closed doors.
But the matter has been finalized in front of everyone, and going back on it would be an act that would be looked down upon by all nobles.
Although the captain of the guard did not understand why the Pope would take the risk of completely offending the Habs family to take advantage of such a small advantage.
Yes, in his opinion.
Whether it's Anna or Lorne, it's just a small advantage.
Since it was just a small advantage, the captain of the guard who had tried to refuse would naturally not think of a way for Lorne, and even comforted Baron Fast.
"After all, he is the Pope of the Holy Light Religion, and in the long run, it wouldn't be a bad thing to go to the Island of Heretics
