Saint Laurent Prison Warden

Chapter 22: The Most Affectionate Silver City
The influence of Silver Age Weekly is quite great.

As time goes by, more and more people are discussing Richard, and the identities of those discussing him are becoming more and more down-to-earth.

In just one day, the news spread to every corner of the streets.

From the famous legendary wizard to the eccentric uncle who repairs shoes on the street, everyone can comment on Richard.

There were even some newspapers, tucked into inconspicuous file bags, that were transported across the ocean and landed on the land of the Holy See.

[Warriors Charging for Love

Author: The Great Bard [Mandolin Shaya]

I believe everyone already knows that Richard took on the stigmata for love and lost his own magic.

I don’t know whether the [Silver Cross Medal] should be awarded to Richard, and I dare not judge it. After all, I am just a singer and player, not a professional.

But I think Richard should not be blamed in any way, he can only be praised.

Richard could have concealed his true purpose, calmly accepted the praise from all sides, worn the [Silver Cross Medal], and become a hero.

But he resolutely told the truth to the public, letting the storm of public opinion hit him mercilessly.

In the past two days, he was like a clown standing under the spotlight, being scrutinized from all sides and analyzed and discussed by countless people.

He didn't have to endure all this if he just told a lie, and everyone hoped he was lying.

But he didn't.

He would rather endure the storm than declare his love to the world!

When the conspiracy of the Holy See was about to overwhelm the Lord of Star Song City, Richard stood up, used his body as a shield, and said loudly: No, no one is allowed to hurt my love.

When countless glories came towards Richard, he dragged his weak body, blocked all the glories, and said loudly: No, I am not doing this for those great causes, I am doing this just for love.

It is hard to imagine how much courage this takes. From a secular perspective, it is even close to stupidity.

When the holy mark came towards the Lord of Xingge City, Richard's courage allowed him to stand in front of the Lord of Xingge City.

When everyone was paying attention to him and receiving glory, Richard's courage made him resolutely take off the crown of glory that everyone had bestowed on him and become a mortal!
And all this is because of his love!
You can deny Richard's honor, but you cannot deny that Richard is a warrior who charges for love.

His love is so affectionate, so passionate, and so heart-warming.

I'm sorry, as a woman and as a bard, it's difficult for me to evaluate him from an objective and fair perspective.

He completely meets my idea of ​​romance and affection.

If the person Richard fell in love with was not the Lord of Xingge City, but me, I might have stayed by Richard's side and responded to his confession enthusiastically.

I unilaterally declare that from today on, Richard will be the [Silver City's Most Affectionate One] in my heart. 】

[Male Role Models

Rose Digest·Special Commentator [Qiao Maili]

Since ancient times, love has been the eternal theme of the Asian world. From ancient times to the present, there are so many stories about love that are constantly being sung.

When I read Mr. Richard's story, I couldn't help but think of the sage Gru who gave up the Elf Empire for Catherine, Sandro's failure for Vednina, and Ivan and Sharna's love across generations...

The scene where Mr. Richard rescued the Lord of Xingge City and was sealed by the stigmata seemed to be the beginning of a legendary story.

Mr. Richard should be a role model for society and a role model for men.

On behalf of the Silver City [Rose Federation], I solemnly propose that Mr. Richard be awarded the title of [Friend of the Rose].

And called on all men to learn from him.

If all men could be like Mr. Richard, willing to sacrifice their lives for love, the world would become more harmonious!"

……

"Ah."

A girl in a nun's uniform gently stroked the ink-scented words on the newspaper with her fingers and couldn't help but laugh.

After reading the last newspaper, she refolded all the newspapers in her hands and put them away in different categories.

She kept a calm look throughout the whole process, humming a peaceful and melodious hymn, looking like she was at peace with the world.

“Alas… the entire Antony family was sacrificed, and the high-ranking secret angel Theseus sacrificed himself.

After paying such a huge price, the sealing plan did not succeed, and Xingge still escaped. Where on earth did this damn Richard come from? "

Next to her, another nun sighed and said to her:

"Dong Luo, regarding Theseus' sacrifice, are you really unwilling to explain to the Inquisition?

With your status and your contributions over the years, even if you just make up a decent excuse, they will release you from the confessional very quickly."

"There's nothing to explain. I've already explained everything I should, but they just don't believe it."

Dong Luo smiled and replied:

"It doesn't matter whether they let me go or not. It's good for me to copy scriptures and Bibles here. I haven't copied scriptures for several years. I have been copied for the past few years."

"By what?"

"Hmph, nothing." Dong Luo laughed again.

"So mysterious. Dong Luo, what's wrong with you today? Ever since these newspapers arrived, you have been laughing and have never stopped!"

"Hmm. I don't know why, maybe I feel happy." Dong Luo shrugged with a smile and asked softly:
"Ling, how is the effect of the Radiance spell? Has the production of [Holy White Stone] increased?"

At this, the little nun stood up immediately.

She danced and said:

"Dong Luo, listen to me, the Radiance Technique you brought back is amazing!

I heard from people in Holy White City that under the illumination of the Light Magic, the output of Holy White Stone has more than doubled in the past few days!

Two thousand monks who were unable to advance to the Holy Inquisitor due to insufficient Holy White Stones have now completed their advancement.

The people of Holy White City have calculated that the increased production of Holy White Stone from the Radiance Spell each year can allow more than 10 million monks to complete their advancement.

This means that 10 million households will benefit from it.

The people of Holy Hundred City don't know that you brought back the Radiance Magic. They all say that the Radiance Magic is a miracle from the Dragon of Light, and call this magic miracle magic.

Awesome, really awesome! "

"Hehe." Dong Luo covered his mouth and squinted his eyes as he laughed. "A miracle brought down by the Dragon of Light? No way.

If you must say it, this is also a miracle of love."

"Hmm? Dong Luo, what did you say?"

"Nothing~"

……

...The heat of the Richard incident finally reached its climax after Richard held a press conference!

"Silver Age Weekly" made a fortune by taking advantage of Richard's exclusive headlines. The sales of newspapers, magazines and video magic stones hit new highs again and again, making a lot of money and making other media jealous.

These media outlets cannot create a news story as popular as Richard’s, but they are very good at continuing to hype up the Richard incident!

It is easier to create popularity than to ride on it.

When Richard held a press conference and said loudly in front of all the reporters: "Yes, I will help the Lord of Xingge City to block the stigmata shackles because I love her!", all the media were boiling with excitement.

"I have already died once. I have nothing to lose except my love for the Lord of Star Song City."

"The Silver Cross is important to me, but not as important as the Lord of Star Song City."

"What should I do if I'm rejected by the Lord of Xingge City? Oh my God, why would you ask me such a question?

Love is not about demanding, nor is it about possessing. I am willing to die for her. Does it matter whether she loves me or not? "

Richard's various distorted love quotes were wildly reprinted and circulated by the media, shocking the entire Silver City.

Everyone - even those who hated Richard the most had to admit that Richard was a very affectionate guy!
No one is sure whether the Silver Cross will be awarded to Richard, but Richard has secured the title of "The Most Affectionate Person in the Silver City-State".

For a time, Richard was given titles such as "Affectionate God of War" and "Pure Love Pioneer".

Even the Lord of the Travel City, Xingge, commented excitedly: "Richard! Just wait! I will kill you!"

The media were very enthusiastic about interviewing Richard. They all wanted to dig out some flesh from Richard and stuff it into their newspapers to make the news in their newspapers even more explosive.

Unfortunately, Richard, who was at the center of this public opinion storm, announced that he would be hospitalized for recuperation after attending the media conference and refused any interviews.

The reporters were scratching their heads in anxiety, but there was nothing they could do. They couldn't attack the hospital and grab Richard out, could they?

Helplessly, they could only settle for the next best thing and enrich Richard's life by interviewing people who knew Richard.

If Silver Age Weekly spreads fake news, let alone other media outlets.

As a result, Richard's mother, grandmother, godfather, grandfather, and seventh uncle's neighbors were all caught by these unscrupulous media from nowhere and exposed to one exclusive gossip after another.

There are those who just mess around, and of course there are those who want to be interviewed seriously.

Unable to interview Richard, they besieged the Magic Academy, hoping to interview Richard's students and colleagues.

During this period, everyone in the magic academy was troubled.

Of course, the other party involved in the Richard incident, the Lord of Xingge City, was not immune.

Due to the extremely high power of City Lord Xingge, most media did not dare to block her at the door of the City Lord's Mansion like they did with the students, but they dared to bribe the maids, security guards, housekeepers and other idle people in the City Lord's Mansion with large sums of money to make indirect inferences about City Lord Xingge's attitude.

The small actions of a large number of media reporters made Xingge, who was already busy with work, extremely disgusted.

But due to her status, she could not directly target these reporters and could only sulk in the City Lord's Mansion.

What depressed Xingge the most was that Richard's actions had made too much noise. Even her parents, who were also busy with their work, called her from the distant capital of the Silver City-State [Seventh Rainbow City] and asked her in a roundabout way about her opinion of Richard.

It almost made her breast nodules burst out with anger.

……

……

In the huge storm of public opinion, Richard, who was at the eye of the storm, quietly put on a fitting purple wizard robe, held an ancient cane, stood in front of the mirror, and checked his attire.

"Clap clap clap!"

Iluna Hill stood beside Richard, clapped with a smile, and praised:
"Wow! So handsome! As expected of the most affectionate person in the Silver City. That's great! The Lord of Xingge City is so lucky.

It’s a pity that the woman you saved was not me, otherwise I would definitely fall in love with you.”

"real or fake?"

Richard glanced at Iluna Hill and said:

"Then I will discuss with the Holy See and ask them to send another angel to put the stigmata shackles on you. Then I will help you block it. Don't worry, I have experience once before and I can definitely block it."

"Okay, okay. We'll get married after you've blocked it." Iluna smiled and moved her hair.

"Then you can give me half of the property when we divorce, right? Hahaha." Richard laughed.

"It's a win-win cooperation! If you block it again, maybe you can get a silver cross medal." Iluna covered her mouth and laughed.

Richard leaned hard on his cane, straightened his body, and said seriously:
"Hahaha, let's go. I can't wait to embrace my new life."

"The supreme warden Richard will arrive at his loyal Saint Laurent prison today!"

Iluna bowed to Richard and said with a smile:

"Warden Richard, from today on, we are colleagues."

colleague?

Richard looked at the purple wizard robe on his body, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Are you talking about this? Sure enough, this is not just a piece of clothing."

"Yes." Iluna said with a smile: "Saint Laurent Prison is the property of the [Special Service Department of the Dome Mage Corps].

You took over the Saint Laurent Prison and naturally joined our [Dome Mages Special Service Department].

As long as our secret service is not disbanded, you and your descendants will be members of our secret service for generations to come."

"With Lord Maher, we rise together and fall together."

When she said this, Iluna lowered her voice and narrowed her eyes, looking like a cunning fox.

"The Dome Mage Corps... In the end, Mahir Changren finally fulfilled his promise...

Good fellow, the territory is my personal property, but I belong to the organization. To put it in a rounded way, the territory still belongs to the organization. What a good trick."

Just as Richard was deep in thought, two black-robed wizards from the Star-Moon Society suddenly opened the door of the ward and strode in.

"Master Richard, it's time to get going!"

Richard's complicated thoughts suddenly came to an end. He looked at Iluna in confusion and asked:

"Sister Hill, aren't you going to accompany me to take up my post?"

"No." Iluna tilted her head: "I'm just here to deliver clothes.

I am the land executive officer of the Silver City-State [City-State Land Resources Management Bureau, Travel City Branch]. I only have the right to recommend the distribution of the land in the Travel City, but I do not have the right to deliver it.

If you want to make the delivery, the Star Moon Mage from the City Lord's Mansion has to do it."

"Oh~" Richard suddenly realized. "I see."

"Stop that!"

Before Richard could react, two black-robed wizards suddenly came over. They held Richard's armpits, one on the left and one on the right, and said to Richard with gritted teeth:

"You are really leisurely, Mr. Richard. Lord of Star Song City, let us say hello to you."
