Anime, Girlfriend Shokuhou Misaki.

This is Kanzaki Kaori's magical name, and also the meaning of her existence in the world.

The Amakusa-style Cross Church, filled with self-reproach, decided to continue following in the footsteps of the Pope, upholding its belief in extending a helping hand to the abandoned, and has persevered to this day.

The same reason why they offered Osora's help during the Book of Law incident.

"But we also know that it is not easy to follow in the footsteps of the Pope. We are just ordinary magicians after all."

Wu said this, and at the same time, a look of admiration appeared in her eyes.

"However, you are not a saint, yet you were able to defeat the Pope on your own. That is truly remarkable."

It is precisely because Makoto Haramura achieved their long-held dream that the Amakusa-style Cross Church has become his die-hard fan base regardless of gender.

People naturally admire and respect those who can do things they themselves cannot.

"So that's it."

Makoto Haramura ran his thumb along the rim of the cup and nodded slightly.

"That sounds pretty good."

Along the way, Makoto Haramura had endured far too many such gazes and stares, and he was no longer surprised by them, nor did he get excited about them.

"However, it's meaningless for you to worship me. Kanzaki Kaori is not an ordinary person, and neither am I."

Whether they are ordinary people or magicians.

In any world, talent always outweighs effort.

For an ordinary person, you might work hard to get into a good university and get a good job after graduation.

However, if a talented person is working hard, you will find that no matter how hard you try, you can't keep up with him.

Such a situation is even more brutal in the magical world.

Here, if your magical aptitude is very ordinary, even if you keep trying, you won't make any progress.

Just like this world, saints are born at the pinnacle of the magical realm.

Once a magician becomes the Right Seat of God, he also stands at the pinnacle of the world.

"I'm so sorry!"

Wuhe quickly lowered his head and apologized again.

The excessively vigorous movements caused the girl's overly full breasts to shake violently.

"This isn't something you need to apologize for."

"However, you can continue to work hard; you are not entirely without a chance."

Makoto Haramura looked at the frightened girl and sighed softly.

He does have a way to help unqualified people overcome the qualification gap, but he can't give it to them right now.

Ultimately, it has nothing to do with him.

If they really want to get it, then they'll just have to wait and see.

"I am back."

With a creaking sound, Touma Kamijou, holding a handkerchief, pushed open the door and entered.

Makoto Haramura yawned, ending the pointless conversation that had just taken place.

"Now that everyone is here, tell me what you know so far. I still have things to do in Academy City, so I can't take too long."

Upon hearing Makoto Haramura's words, Itsuki nodded quickly, and Touma Kamijou also hurriedly took his seat.

Next, Makoto Haramura and Touma Kamijou obtained some information from Itsuki.

According to Gowa, all fifty-two members of the Amakusa-style Cross Church were sent to various parts of France to conduct investigations.

She is in charge of the Avignon district.

Currently, there are only five and one Amakusa-style cross-cult members in the Avignon district.

However, since Gowa had already detected the anomaly in the Avignon ley lines, the other members of the Amakusa-style Cross Cult were preparing to meet here.

"Now that everyone has arrived, we can officially begin our operation once the other members arrive."

As she spoke, Wuhe suddenly lowered her voice.

"Our goal is to suppress the Papal Palace in this city."

The papal chamber in Avignon has quite a history.

At the end of the 12th century, a dispute broke out between the Roman Catholic Pope and the King of France. Ultimately, the Roman Catholic Pope lost to the King of France, granting the King of France the right to issue orders to the Roman Catholic Pope.

One of the conditions was that the Pope move out of the Vatican and relocate to France.

In other words, the Papal Palace in Avignon was the place where the Roman Catholic Popes were imprisoned at that time.

He was imprisoned for 68 years.

However, while the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church was imprisoned, it was impossible for the King of France to simply eliminate the Roman Catholic Church.

There's no way around it; there are just too many believers in the Roman Catholic Church.

During those 68 years, everything that governed the Roman Catholic Church originated from this papal chamber.

Therefore, the Amakusa-style Cross Church came to this place to investigate.

The existence of this papal chamber was indeed a symbol of shame for the Roman Catholic Church. However, from a strategic perspective, this papal chamber was connected to the earth's veins in order to control the entire Roman Catholic Church.

And what the Roman Catholic Church wants to do this time has been basically figured out.

They wanted to use a spirit garment called the C-Document.

—The official title of the C document is "Document of Constantine".

It is a spiritual garment specially written for the Roman Orthodox Church by the Roman Emperor Constantine I. It is in the shape of a parchment scroll, about 5cm long and about 3cm in diameter.

The main purpose of the C document was to make the speaker's statements appear as "the Roman Catholic Church is absolutely correct," although its effect could not distort the laws of physics, it was enough to influence the minds of the people.

The world's attention is now focused on the Vatican, and even the Pope cannot easily use the C document.

To reduce unnecessary politics and shorten the lifespan of the C document, the Pope is very likely to use this spiritual garment in this former papal chamber.

"According to my investigation, a large number of Roman Catholics have now gathered in the Papal Palace, and preliminary preparations for the use of the C document have begun."

Wu said this.

"Even if the two of you don't come, we are already prepared to storm the Papal Palace once all the members have arrived."

The mission of the English Puritans to the Amakusa Cross Church was to hinder the actions of the Roman Orthodox Church.

Although both the English Puritans and the Roman Orthodox Church belong to the magical tradition, the relationship between the two churches has never been good.

That woman from the English Puritan Church had already reached an alliance agreement with Aleister long ago.

Furthermore, the English Puritans did not want to be coerced by the Roman Catholic Church into the war, thus allowing the Roman Catholic Church to gain the upper hand.

"You're happy to be used as a weapon?"

"You must understand that you may very well be completely purged by the Roman Catholic Church."

In terms of strength, the Anglican Church was far superior to the Amakusa Church. The fact that such an important task was entrusted to the weak Amakusa Church was itself a calculated move.

The most important factor, according to Makoto Haramura's estimation, was that the English Puritans later used them as scapegoats to shield themselves from the wrath of the Roman Catholic Church, concluding with "Amakusa-style unauthorized action."

Haramura Makoto looked at Gowa with a half-smile.

In response, Wuhe merely gave a slightly complicated smile.

"We know, but we took on the mission willingly."

“We have considered all the consequences, and this is a consensus. We absolutely cannot abandon those who need help.”

The Amakusa-style Cross Church has decided to follow in the footsteps of Kaori Kanzaki and extend a helping hand to those who cannot be saved.

"The riots happening around the world have already harmed many innocent people."

A look of sorrow flashed in Wuhe's eyes.

Her tone remained as gentle as ever, yet within that gentleness lay a firm will.

"We can't let any more people get hurt."

"This is the will of the entire Amakusa-style Cross Church."

"That's truly amazing."

"—***!"

Makoto Haramura couldn't help but clap his hands, sparing no praise.

He could tell that every word the girl spoke was sincere and genuine, and he hadn't witnessed such a shining example of humanity in a long time.

A person like that is beautiful no matter what she looks like.

At least Makoto Haramura's smile is now so wide it's almost impossible to suppress, like an AK.

“You are very strong, not in terms of physical strength, but in terms of inner strength.”

He slowly closed his eyes, then opened them again the next second. However, this time, Makoto Haramura's gaze did not fall on Itsuki, but on Touma Kamijou.

"So, senior, after hearing Miss Wuhe's story, did you feel your blood boiling?"

Kamijou Touma clenched his fists, the veins on his arms bulging, and even before he spoke, it was clear that he was in a state of turmoil.

"Haramura, tell me what you need me to do."

Kamijou Touma is definitely a kind-hearted person. Usually, when he seems to be in trouble, it's actually 99% of the time because he's meddling in other people's business.

This guy would fight without hesitation for someone he had no connection with.

Now that he knows so much, Touma Kamijou absolutely cannot just stand by and watch.

"It's very simple."

Makoto Haramura picked up the teacup on the table and drank the remaining black tea in one gulp.

"Your and Wuhe's task is to hold off those rabble for me."

"give it to me."

Touma Kamijou agreed without hesitation.

It was Itsuki who looked up in surprise at Haramura Makoto's words.

"You mean you're not waiting for my companions and want to start the operation now?"

According to her investigation, there are quite a few Roman Catholics gathered here. If that were all, it wouldn't be so bad. The key point is that it is very likely that the Right Seat of God has also come here.

So many people, and only the three of them? Is that really feasible?

"if not?"

Makoto Haramura stood up.

"Even you, Wu, can't guarantee the accuracy of your prediction regarding the timing of that so-called C document. Nobody knows whether it will launch today or tomorrow."

"It could even launch at any moment."

He turned around and opened the door to the room.

"It's better to deal with this kind of thing as soon as possible."

"Moreover, he is merely the Right Seat of God, nothing special."

Chapter 354 Monkeys and Humans

A** Weng, Papal Palace.

Generally speaking, when people mention the Papal Palace, they probably think of something sacred, solemn, and magnificent.

This is probably what people imagine the Pope's residence should look like.

But as mentioned before.

This place was actually where the King of France imprisoned the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church.

In reality, the papal palace here looks more like a medieval fortress, a building constructed of piled stone that gives one a sense of confinement just by looking at it.

If the aura it emits had a color, it would probably be gray.
