Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 366 The Council of Nobles

This Bishop John is different from the previous Bishop Claude. He's so domineering and direct... Audrey maintained her elegant smile and nodded slightly to Klein.

"I will convey the bishop's thoughts to my father," Audrey said. Her father was a high-ranking nobleman and a major banker, holding a very high position in noble circles and having considerable power to interfere in the noble council.

"Hmm..." Klein nodded slightly, then after thinking for a moment, decided to be more aggressive. "I will write to the heads of the royal family and the major churches."

"That would be even better." Audrey's smile became more sincere; not needing her father's intervention was the best outcome.

"I've been a bit busy lately, so I'll have to take my leave now," Klein said directly, nodding slightly to Audrey before leaving the conference room.

"Why is he doing this?" Susie suddenly spoke up, whispering. Klein's behavior of leaving a lady alone here was already very impolite.

"That's how the Dream Cult is," Audrey said, seemingly unfazed. "Have you forgotten that we didn't even get to see the archbishop the first two times?"

"Oh, I guess so." Susie wagged her tail and sat down in front of Audrey. "But I feel like he knows me? Or maybe he recognized me as an extraordinary being immediately?"

Audrey's beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly. "That is indeed a bit strange. He reacted the same way when he saw me..."

"But I'm pretty sure I've never seen him."

"However, what will such a powerful and powerful dream bishop bring?"

Audrey and Susie quickly quieted down as a female dream priestess entered.

"Miss Audrey, we need to begin."

"it is good."

Meanwhile, Klein returned to his office and, in the name of the Dream Cult, sent several telegrams to the royal family and the church.

To put it bluntly, it's a form of coercion, just like when the leaders of the major churches went directly to the Royal Palace of Rune.

Otherwise, the nobles would certainly not allow other people to participate in their internal meetings.

An hour later, Klein received replies from the Church of Storms and the Church of Night, as well as from the Augustus family.

"...First, please allow me, on behalf of the Augustus family, to welcome Bishop John to Backlund...It is our honor to have the attention of the Dream Bishop to the Noble Council...Hereby I formally invite Bishop John to attend the Noble Council to be held at Mount Order in three days..."

"That's the allure of power," Klein said, showing no remorse for abusing his power.

Ah, no, implementing the Survival Act is the responsibility of the Dream Bishop.

"That feels good!" Klein had never done such an easy task before.

……

"John Constantine?" At this very moment, the information on the new bishop of the Dream Sect, who had been in office for less than a day, had already arrived on the tables of various related forces.

"Claude has delegated all the power of the archbishop, and now he is the one who calls the shots in the Dream Cult of Rune."

"...The Dream Cult is indeed full of oddballs."

The person who heard the report remained silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head. He picked up the documents on the table and began to read them carefully.

"From the Solomon Empire..." The man stood up, unable to sit still any longer because of the document.

"...This resume is perfect for a 'Dream' believer."

The middle-aged man in the crisp military uniform looked somewhat grave.

Coming from the Solomon Empire meant that even investigating the bishop's identity had become an insurmountable challenge for their military.

For over two thousand years, the Solomon Empire has maintained an absolutely terrifying level of control over its royal family and angelic families; even MI9 could not extend its reach into the country.

Considering the age of the newly appointed Bishop John, the major general had the same guess as Bishop Claude.

They're probably the offspring or students of some important figure, here to gain prestige; they might rise through the ranks in the Dream Cult later...

"This means many methods are no longer feasible." The major general frowned slightly, then ordered, "Continue the investigation!"

"Yes!" His subordinate respectfully stepped back.

In the few minutes after his subordinates left, the major general lit a white candle and waited quietly.

Suddenly, the flames surged, and a refined-looking old man emerged from them.

"Qunas." The old man nodded slightly as he looked at the major general with his hands behind his back.

"Herwin, you may need to attend the Council of Nobles at Mount Order in three days. There is someone for whom you need to provide a professional psychological assessment and profile."

"Who is it?" Herwin Lambis asked.

"John Constantine, the newly appointed Dream Bishop." Chunas Kolger handed the relevant documents to the psychology master.

"Dream Bishop?" Herwin Lambis's hand holding the document stiffened slightly. This was definitely not a good target. For them, the extremely high spirituality of the "Dream" path was no secret, and even demigod-level "spectators" could easily be discovered.

"We don't need to take action against him; we just need to determine whether he has any impact on our plans," Chunas stated his request.

"...Okay." Herwin Lambis thought for a moment and finally nodded.

……

Three days later, Klein arrived at Mount Order, wearing a specially prepared white and gold divine robe.

This is a building located in the Queen's Ward of Backlund, said to have been built by William I, the "Founder" and ancestor of the Augustus family, symbolizing the majesty of the law and order of the Kingdom of Loen.

Klein straightened his clothes and headed towards the palace on Mount Order. As expected, he encountered Saint Anthony of the Church of the Night and the "Singer of God" of the Church of the Storm.

These two are the pinnacle of power in the Church of Backlund, far surpassing Klein in both rank and status.

"You are John Constantine?" Ace Snake, the "Singer of God," stared at Klein with his silver eyes, giving Klein the feeling that the old man might unleash a burst of lightning at him at any moment.

However, Klein was now a prominent figure in the Dream Cult, so he couldn't be intimidated. He looked at the "Singer of God" and nodded slightly.

"Not bad, more reliable than Claude." The serious-looking old man suddenly smiled, almost startling Klein.

"Snake belongs to the lineage of the Angels of Punishment," Saint Anthony, who had already suppressed his fearsome nature, said with a smile as he introduced him to Klein.

The "Angel of Punishment" in the Church of Storms is the embodiment of "Supreme Dream".

Each of the other churches also has a similar dream faction, and they are relatively more inclined towards the dream cult.

Klein understood, his expression softening considerably. He nodded and smiled at the two true church leaders, saying, "I had forgotten to pay you a visit earlier."
