Pirate Kingship-Chapter 783 - 494: Hidden: The Fuse of the Religious War (6600) (Part 2)
Good people, especially those without the ability to resist, are always the ones with a gun pointed at their heads.
In fact, this Abbess is just the tail end of this "alignment" mindset.
Many envoys from various countries' dignitaries, like those young Bayfolk, are rushing to Black Sails Harbor to visit Byron on fast horses.
Even many bankers from the Gold Sequence can't wait and are issuing offer invitations through Online Financial Street, wanting to invest in him a sum of war funds.
This is also the requirement of a banker's Promotion Ceremony "risk investment," making them wave gold coins around the world searching for potential stocks.
Including the Hightins Royal Party, Earl's Party, and the two Queens of Castilia, each has a large number of sponsors, and many wealthy individuals betting on multiple sides are frequent.
It is said that when Netherland was at war, a large number of bankers and pawnbrokers from the Gold Sequence lent money to the more favorable and credible enemy country, leading to Netherland's defeat, angering their own King to the point of fury.
In the eyes of this group, there is no loyalty or sentiment, only interests, more accurately: "Financiers have no country."
Very soon.
After listening to the old nun's selective recount, Margaret finally determined she wasn't dreaming and couldn't help but cry tears of joy:
"That's great, my little Byron is not only alive and well, but he has found that Bay Citizen Princess, who seems to be a graduate of the Vienna Art Academy, as his fiancée.
I've already been helping him select suitable unmarried girls from various Royal Families, and this Bay Citizen Princess was among them. It's good to have some artistic influence.
If I can take Catherine back from the York Party in the future, it would be even better."
The Aunt's focus is obviously different from all other outsiders.
Others only see Byron's achievements; only an elder like Aunt who genuinely cares for him is concerned about whether he's safe and has found a wife.
The other few aunts, upon hearing the good news, were more or less the same, echoing:
"That's right, we must get little Catherine back. The neighboring Star Moon Empire allows polygamy, why not us Byron?"
"Now that Byron has succeeded, at worst, he'll turn to the Star Moon Empire. Can the Church even reach the West Coast?"
"Not afraid to have seventeen or eighteen children at once, we sisters can help take care of them."
When the yarn just snapped, Hugin, whom Byron was possessing, was already quietly standing on that spinning machine, observing everything.
Originally, after discovering the spinning machine had fallen, the spindle was still spinning, only the spindle changed from horizontal to vertical.
Inspired by this, Byron prepared to take out the "Jenny Spinning Machine" that had accompanied the Whale Oil Steam Engine, sparking the first industrial revolution.
At this moment, seeing the heartfelt emotions of the elders, Byron felt warmth in his heart, and couldn't help but feel more hatred towards the old nun who constantly bullied them with bitterness:
"If apologies were useful, why would we need laws?
If there were genuine remorse, it could be considered understandable.
But you clearly don't believe you did anything wrong, just felt unlucky, bullying someone you shouldn't have. Next time, if it's an Honest Man, you'd still have the same attitude.
In this Monastery, Aunt and them are treated the same as that 'Iron Masked Man' in the dungeon; with strong external support, their treatment is 'Sit, please sit, please take the seat.'
Without strong support, their treatment would immediately revert, perhaps even worse.
So how can you be easily forgiven?"
Byron can't imagine if he accidentally died in some corner, or if his growth hadn't been so rapid, what kind of desolate scene Aunt and the aunts would face later in life?
Byron's specialty is "family unity" and "splitting the earthworm in two," exacting vengeance is just the basics.
However, he didn't directly take action against the old nun, instead, he spit out a drop of his own blood onto her head, which instantly penetrated.
This drop, symbolizing "Transform," won't give her any benefits, but will gradually change her perception.
Within a day, she will come to worship the master of this blood infinitely, considering them a spiritual beacon and the full meaning of her existence.
In the Mythological Era, those afflicted with Bloodthirst Syndrome and photophobia, Night Demon, Half-Night Demon, often used this ability to create servants, dispatching them everywhere to prepare blood for themselves.
Therefore, these humans serving Night Demon were also called "Blood Servants," "Ha Blood Clan," even without Black Sorcery control, they would work for the master naturally, carrying their own provisions.
Unless one day they gain strength surpassing the master, otherwise there's absolutely no possibility of betrayal.
The effect is extremely hidden too; even a clergy of High Sequence facing her directly would find it difficult to detect any anomaly.
"For now, keep this old thing, eventually send her to cousin Edward, let her have a good Hell tour package."
After Byron resolved the most pressing crisis around Aunt, he planned to reappear for contact when she's alone, letting her prepare in advance.
As for the old nun's proposal to transfer them to the library to relieve them from physical labor, Byron was also pleased.
They need to wait a while for their escape plan; it's better to ease their burdens before fleeing.
However, the old nun was very eager to recommend Aunt and the others to the library just now.
But after she started transforming into a Blood Servant, she suddenly hesitated, awkwardly speaking under Margaret's puzzled gaze:
