As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime

Chapter 172: The Suspicious Elves

Night, San Lorenzo.

In the Orthodox Church.

The elves stood at the door.

Some whispers came out.

The leader of the elves hurriedly looked up.

He was afraid that the Holy Knights would be dissatisfied.

After all, they were only a small team of elves.

They were not enough to face the entire Orthodox Church’s Holy Knights.

Moreover, these Holy Knights were not simple Holy Knights.

They must have gone through harsh training and cruel battlefields.

It would not be easy for the elves to defend themselves.

But nothing happened.

The Holy Knights looked calm.

It was as if the Holy Knights did not hear the elves’ discussion.

The elven leader knew that the Holy Knight must have heard their discussion,

But they just ignored it.

This situation instantly made the elven curious.

This group of Holy Knights knew that the elves would have such suspicions,

And understood them.

This situation made the elf leader’s image of the Orthodox Church in his heart improve greatly.

As expected of the human’s Orthodox Church of light.

This kind and understanding attitude really made people feel very comfortable.

Since the Holy Knights were already so calm, the elven race naturally couldn’t care less about them attacking them.

The elf leader’s expression became serious as he directly said, “Since your church’s Pope is resting, we won’t bother him now. Please take us to a place where we can spend the night.”

The Holy Knight heard the elf’s request.

He nodded and led them to the guest room where the Orthodox Church received their guests.

The elves behind the leader looked at each other.

They didn’t know why their leader was so open to the Orthodox Church?

But since their leader was already following them, they didn’t have any objections.

Worst case, they would just kill their way out!

The elves were on their guard.

They were ready to fight at any time.

But the Paladins did not give them any chance at all.

When the Paladins brought them to the guest room.

They left in a gentlemanly manner.

They said, “Pope Monn will be at work on time tomorrow at nine o’clock. Please rest well.”

After the Holy Knights left, the elves all heaved a sigh of relief.

But at the same time, they also had doubts in their hearts.

They did not know what the Orthodox Church was planning.

The elf leader clapped his hands and said, “Alright, don’t think too much. Hurry up and rest for the night. We still have to get back on the road tomorrow!”

Their plan was to get back on the road to go back to the Elf Forest after receiving the Princess.

However, since the Pope of the Orthodox church was not at work, they could have a good rest first.

It would be a good time to replenish their energy.

Thus, the elves rested in the guest room of the Orthodox Church for a night with doubts.

Of course, they slept very lightly except for the elf leader.

They were afraid that the Holy Knights would suddenly attack them.

The elf leader slept well without thinking so much.

He had seen enough on the way here.

There were tens of thousands of Paladins in the entire Orthodox Church.

It would be easy to deal with the dozen of them.

There was no need to wait for them to fall asleep before attacking.

That would be unnecessary.

So, the elf leader slept soundly.

The night passed quickly.

In the morning, the Sun gradually rose in San Lorenzo.

The elves who slept in the Orthodox Church began to wake up gradually.

They found that nothing really happened last night.

This situation made them wonder, when did humans become so good again?

Did they really have the wrong idea about them?

This made them feel incredible.

But the truth was right in front of them.

The leader of the elves got up from his bed at this time.

He stretched his body against the sunlight shining through the window.

His wonderful body was clear as day.

He pushed the door open and immediately saw the elves who had gathered in the corridor.

Each of them had dark circles under their eyes, which made the leader of the elves very puzzled.

“What are you doing?”

“Hehe, we’re fine. We just didn’t sleep well last night.”

The elves shook their heads one after another and didn’t say anything because the truth was that they were worried that the Holy Knights would plot against them last night,

And that was why they didn’t sleep well.

The leader of the elves saw that the elves didn’t want to say anything,

So he didn’t ask.

He led the elves to watch what went on in the Orthodox Church in the morning.

The unique training method of the Holy Knights attracted them instantly.

The leader of the elves had a serious look on his face. He could tell at a glance that this training was extraordinary.

For a moment, he became more cautious about humans or the Orthodox Church.

After breakfast, the elves strolled until nine o’clock.

At nine o’clock, Monn arrived at the church on time.

Hearing that the Elves had come, Monn was delighted.

But when he heard that the elves had come not long after he got off work yesterday,

Monn felt his heart ache.

You should have told me earlier!

Wouldn’t that save me money for a meal?

Besides, Asher had a huge appetite.

Monn was terrifying.

He couldn’t help but ask, “Why didn’t you tell me last night?”

The Paladin blinked and said, “Didn’t you get off work last night?”

“…”

He thought, “Fuck! Even if I got off work, I could have still gotten that night feline monster to send Asher over.

Wasn’t that why she was working here!”

But Monn didn’t say anything.

It had already happened.

It was useless to say so much.

“Well done, keep up the good work.”

After encouraging him, Monn went to the hall.

The Paladin was a little confused.

Although he was encouraged, he felt that Pope Monn wasn’t too happy.

He didn’t understand!

The Paladin shook his head.

He didn’t want to think about it anymore.

As Monn walked on the road, Asher couldn’t help but ask, “Someone from my tribe came?”

At the same time, Asher still had some doubts in her heart. She had clearly said that they didn’t need to come so quickly, so why did someone come today?

Could it be that I wrote wrongly?

It shouldn’t be?

Asher was puzzled.

She didn’t want to go back yet!

It was so much fun here! Much more fun than being in the Elf Forest!

Her expression changed, and no one knew what she was thinking.

In the Hall of the Holy Church.

Before Monn entered the door, he saw a group of beautiful figures with waist-length blonde hair.

The elves standing outside saw their Princess, and could not help but be pleasantly surprised. “Princess!”

Immediately, the elf was gagged by the elf next to her.

The elf immediately reacted.

His body was suddenly covered in cold sweat.

Her Majesty had said that the identity of the princess could not be revealed outside.

Otherwise, it would bring disaster.

Monn looked at the strange behaviour of the two elves in front of him.

He was deep in thought.
