Johannes Reformation War (5)

The spark of reform sparked by sisters Angelina and Jeanne spread throughout Johannes Castle at an incredible rate.

The dissatisfaction of believers was gradually accumulating due to the harsh tyranny of Pope Alexander VI, and it was revealed through conscientious priests and heresy judges in each region that a saint who was in charge of the center of the faith had received an oracle and stood up to judge the Pope. When it became known to the believers, the farmers rose up grabbing their plows and sickles, the hunters grabbed their spears and bows, and those who had nothing even grabbed rocks.

“Let’s help the saint and purify the church by following the will of Ikaris!!”

“Judge the Pope who distorted the will of Ikaris, harmed his neighbors with wrong doctrines, and enriched them!!”

Originally, the believers would not have been able to move freely because they were afraid of the Heresy Inquisitors in charge of public security, but when it became known that Jeanne, the Inquisitor’s deputy leader, was with the saint, there was nothing to stop the believers from running wild.

“What are they doing?! Go home right now!! How dare a thousand things try to challenge the authority of the temple!! The Holy Father has sent heresy judges to punish you… Wow!!”

“The Heresy Judges are also with us!! There is nothing to be afraid of!! Ikaris also sent an archangel down to help us!!”

“Kill that guy!! The so-called priest of Ikaris is going against his will!!”

Puk puk puk!! Bah! Puddeuddeuk!!

Even though believers rose up all over the Holy Kingdom, the priests who were loyal to the Pope and were getting hit and run with were still unable to grasp the situation and tried to suppress the believers as usual, but were often beaten to death.

Moreover, when the believers who murdered the corrupt priests searched the temple, they discovered the gold and silver treasures they had hidden and the priestesses who had been abused as sexual slaves by them, so they gritted their teeth at the corruption of the temple and praised the saints who declared the temple even more. I started doing it.

In this way, believers in each region defended the Pope in the temple and sent a letter saying that they would directly kill priests who tried to protect him and join the temple. The fervent believers in the southern region directly joined Angelina and Jeanne’s troops, while the believers in other directions fought among themselves. They gathered together, formed their own unit, and began advancing towards Radame, the capital of the Holy Kingdom.

As corrupt priests, excluding a small number of conscientious priests and priestesses, began to be murdered one by one across the country, the church seemed to have grasped the situation and attempted to stabilize the country by withdrawing the Inquisitor unit sent to the border area, but the Inquisitors were all killing Jeanne. There was no way that order would work as they were under the command of , and Angelina, Jeanne, and Juno’s army continued to move north toward the Great Temple of Radame at an incredible speed without any resistance.

Meanwhile, a week after the saint declared crusade. The great temple of Radame, the capital of the Holy Kingdom of Johannes.

A high-ranking priest rushed at high speed into the secret underground room where the Pope and cardinals always had parties except during ancestral rites.

“What’s going on!! Where is this place!! Don’t you know that this is a place where only cardinals and above can enter!!”

Even though one of the cardinals was furious, the high priest paid no heed and ran to the Pope.

“Your Holiness!! His Holiness!! This is a big deal! A rebellion has occurred!!”

Even today, the Pope, who was coveting the anuses of priestesses with the cardinals who followed him in the underground sanctuary, opened his eyes wide when he heard that his henchman was running towards him.

“Bar, a rebellion? what are you talking about? A rebellion!! How dare someone rebel against me, the representative of Ikaris?!!”

The priests of the denomination, who had become so corrupt as they were, were afraid that they would be held responsible, so they delayed reporting to their superiors as much as possible and tried to resolve the matter among themselves, and after that failed, they reported, so the Pope and cardinals found out about the rebellion late.

“She is a saint!! Saint Angelina Blumain started a rebellion in the southern region!!”

“What? If you are a saint, didn’t you say that you are definitely being punished by the Balkan emperor for providing medical services in Adriatic!! How can that bitch return to the Holy Kingdom and start a rebellion!!”

The secret plan to bring the saint from the Balkans, rape her, and then execute her failed, but the Pope, relieved that he had eliminated his greatest enemy, began to exploit the believers even more harshly. I looked at him in disbelief.

“I don’t know how it happened, but the believers fell for the saint’s instigation and started a riot!! Moreover, it is said that believers in the north, west, and east responded to the saint’s instigation and rebelled!!”

“Call the Heresy Inquisitor unit immediately!! If there are crazy people who challenge Ikaris-sama’s authority, Jeanne will turn a blind eye and execute all the rebels!!”

Since the Pope and Cardinals had weakened their divine power by going against the will of Ikaris, they were unable to obtain the Inquisitor Unit, which required a certain amount of force, and relied on Jeanne’s deep faith to lead her.

So, it was the Pope who tried to manipulate Jeanne this time too, but the high priest who reported it shook his head with a tearful face.

“It’s no use! The gods have already sent orders… but it is said that the Inquisitor unit has joined the rebellion!! Now all we have left are priests!!”

“”Wha, what… what? Are you saying that the Inquisitors participated in the rebellion? How can these fanatics who are crazy about their faith?!”

The Pope’s expression became distant when he heard that the Inquisitors, the strongest military group in St. Johannes’ Palace and famous for their religious fanatics, had joined the saint.

His penis, which was stuck in the priestess’s anus, was already small, shriveled, and limp, and the priestess, who was crying out in pain, fainted and fell in front of him.

However, the Pope fell into agony without paying any attention to the priestess.

“Your Holiness!! What should I do about this!!”

“It is said that the saint received an oracle, and the contents of the oracle were to revise the doctrine of monotheism, appoint the Balkan emperor as the earthly representative of Ikaris, and punish them at the same time!!”

“Please suggest a solution! His Holiness!! Didn’t we come this far only trusting in His Holiness?”

“How about we take our possessions and seek refuge in Tesseito or Leon? With all the wealth I have so far, I think I can live well there…”

This was the Pope who was glaring at the cardinals who had accepted the food he had given them and who were now trying to blame him or abandon their current positions and run away with a look that made him want to tear them to death.

“First of all… Announce that Saint Angelina and Inquisitor Captain Jeanne will be excommunicated!! The will of Ikaris is still in the great temple, and I am telling you that all the temple they are proclaiming is a lie!!”

“Okay. Your Holiness!!”

“Also, we must refute point by point how absurd it is to bring in a foreign emperor and declare him to be the agent of Lord Icaris and to bring in a foreign army to threaten the Pope!! Why on earth do we have to admit that there are other gods besides Ikaris? This is not to say that you should take advantage of the faith of believers!!”

“That is a wise decision. Your Holiness!!”

“In areas where the news of the saint’s rebellion has not yet been heard and in the region near the capital Radame, rumors spread that the saint was blinded by power and fell in love with the Balkan emperor, and that she was blinded by color and betrayed Lord Ikaris. Propaganda that she is a lewd prostitute!! And we must gather as many priests as possible who follow the Great Priest and begin preparations for a defensive battle at La Dame Castle!”

Still, even if it was rotten, Alexander VI came up with a solution and issued instructions even after thinking for a moment.

“What are they doing!! Don’t start your own work right now!! Leave now!!”

The Pope’s instructions sounded quite appropriate to the situation and were at least worth the time, so the cardinals ran at high speed to enforce the Pope’s orders and save their property and lives.

” Damn it… I gathered together a bunch of greedy guys called cardinals, but now that it’s a crisis, there’s no one I can trust… If that doesn’t work out, I’ll have to follow Cardinal Lorenzo’s words and take refuge in Tesseito with my possessions. I can’t die here trusting only those idiots!!”

As the Pope entered another room in the corner of the secret room, the enormous amount of wealth he had accumulated so far came into view.

‘If I were to pay about half of this in taxes, that Tiruen guy would also accept it. It would be inevitable since a huge amount of military funds would be needed to wage a war with the Balkans. However, in order to increase the ransom and reduce the amount of taxes, it is necessary to delay the period of exile as much as possible. And since we can’t give Tiruennom time to come up with countermeasures, we have to make sure to block information!!’

In the secret room he created in preparation for an emergency, there was a space movement magic circle connected to Carmarthen, the capital of Tesseito, and the amount of space movement magic that could only move oneself and one’s property was activated even with his divine power, which was greatly reduced compared to the time of his accession to the throne. Because he was able to do so, Alexander VI was fully prepared and prepared step by step to oppose the Balkan and Saint Mary’s allied forces.

The plan the Pope was preparing included measures to block his own country’s information, and this, combined with the characteristics of the Holy Kingdom of Johannes where spies were already difficult to operate, made it possible to completely block information reaching Tiruen.

This was fortunate for Juno and the Balkan Empire Army, who were most afraid of Tesseito launching an offensive right now, and Juno advanced step by step towards Radame, exchanging opinions closely by communication with the Minister of Defense, Count Mayer, who was in command of the army. went out
