Chapter 7
◎ Please let me criticize ◎
The great priest stepped up the cascading steps with his long legs, and walked into the temple with his hands behind his back. He was wearing a dark high-necked robe and boots of the same color. The falling platinum holy belt was blown by the strong wind, and the long silver-thread-like hair fluttered along with it.
Hearing the familiar and majestic footsteps, the nuns who were gathering in a corner of the temple to discuss the plot of the novel in a low voice quickly put away the tabloids in their hands, praying, sweeping the floor, and wiping the window glass, looks like a serious worker.
Sino's inorganic golden pupils narrowed slightly, and he coughed lightly, "During working hours, I was paid by the temple, but I was fishing. Take out the things in my hand and confiscate them." ——The word fishing is learned from the saint.
The nuns handed the gossip tabloids to Sino in a friendly manner.
They were still very afraid of this indifferent and aloof high priest...
Sino was not interested in these things at first, especially since the photo of Augustine was printed on the headlines on the front page, so he didn't want to take a second look. But he glanced at the catalog and found that there was actually a serialized novel titled "The Overbearing God Is Fiercely Loved".
"Profanity! It's simply blasphemy!" The great priest immediately showed an expression of deep hatred.
The God of Darkness was sealed in the abyss a long time ago, and the Temple of Light regarded him as a "demon" and "evil god" and did not recognize his status as a true god.
The only god on this continent is the God of Light, which is also widely recognized by people. As for the God of Darkness, most people regard it as "the evil and terrifying demon king in the abyss".
It is self-explanatory which god is referred to in "Overbearing Gods Love Fiercely".
However, although the great priest was resisting in his heart, he couldn't help but opened the newspaper with his hand, wanting to find out.
This kind of literature must be criticized!
Don't let him catch who this "anonymous author" is!
The current Temple of Light is not as rigid and strict as it was in the Middle Ages before the empire was established and when the kingdoms were separated. It would not be possible to arrest and judge others just because they wrote the same humanities of the God of Light.
But the great priest still couldn't accept it in terms of personal emotions.
In his heart, the God of Light is so noble and holy, it is impossible to "love fiercely" for any mortal.
Collapsing people, no, collapsing God! !
He began to read with critical thoughts.
He froze when he saw the red-eyed literature.
He also froze when he saw "Woman, you are playing with fire".
But when he saw "the silver-haired god threw the girl on the bed, grabbed her two wrists and pressed them on top of his head, leaned over and kissed her delicate rose-like lips fiercely, grabbing her sweetness", he couldn't help but feel tense.
What the hell is this! !
As for the subsequent plot that made the nuns' faces turn yellow, the priest no longer wanted to watch it anymore.
——However, how can you criticize it if you don't read it?
With a cold face, Sino turned to the next page, not hiding the disgust in his voice: "Tsk, vulgar."
"My lord, what are you looking at?" A bishop who had just returned from a trip happened to pass by nearby.
"Cough," Sino coughed unnaturally, "I'm criticizing a vulgar and profane article."
The bishop's eyes lit up instantly, and he said devoutly, "My lord, please let me criticize together!"
"?" Sino's face turned indifferent again, and he directly stuffed a stack of newspapers into the bishop's arms, "You read it for yourself, remember to burn it after reading it."
"Thank you, Great Priest , I will definitely criticize severely!" the bishop said hastily.
Sino snorted coldly, flung his sleeves and left.
After a period of time.
"What?" After reading it, the bishop felt that he had been deceived. "This is completely at the level of Qingshuiwen! The proportion of meat is almost equal to nothing!"
After a while he realized, "Could it be that for the great priest who has been abstinent for many years, kissing foreplay pulling the lamp is just a retelling?"
"After all, virgins over a hundred years old are really rare. I used to think that the great priest was pious and noble in heart, and was willing to dedicate his life to the sacred cause. I didn't expect the real reason was that he didn't understand anything.
The bishop shook his head and hid the newspaper in the inner pocket of his clothes.
Just kidding, how could it be burned? He still wants to catch up with the next issue.
He is now scratching his head waiting, he just wants to immediately travel to next Sunday and watch the second serialization of "The Overbearing God Is Fiercely Loved".
"Lilian found out the real identity of the wild man, and then? Then there is nothing after!" "
The author's release is too short."
"Yeah, it's only 20,000 words, enough for anyone to read." "
I didn't expect it to be aimed at Agustine, with His Majesty's figure, he bought a gossip tabloid at random, and he can read such a wonderful novel!" "
Why does it take next week to see the content behind QAQ."
"Urgent, I want to dig into the author's draft box. "
"Damn it, I want to update it offline, but I don't even know who the author is, why is it 'anonymous'!"
The newsstand at the entrance of the Imperial Academy of Magic was also full of people, many of whom were discussing "The Overbearing God is Ruthless" People who love the plot of "Love", and those who feel that they can't watch enough and want to remind them to update.
Augustine put down the newspaper and fell into thought.
The knight commander thought carefully and came up with one point.
She likes those who are capable in that aspect...
Otherwise, she wouldn't write about "three days and three nights without sleep".
Can ordinary people do it? ? After three days and three nights without food, I was so hungry and exhausted.
"It should be an exaggerated artistic technique." Augustine said firmly.
"But Your Majesty," the knight commander said with a hesitant expression, "this newspaper..."
"Say." Augustine slightly raised his eyelashes, and lightly glanced at the half-kneeling knight in front of him.
The knight commander trembled, "This newspaper printed your photo without authorization, infringing on your portrait rights!"
Fortunately, the sales volume was so small that His Majesty didn't notice, now that the newspapers are delivered to His Majesty's desk, how could he turn a blind eye.
Augustine was not displeased, and he had his own understanding of this: "As far as I know, she has invested in this newspaper, right? Presumably "Your Majesty's Waist I'm Too Good, Sihashiha" is her true opinion." Thoughts. This is a happy thing, why should I be punished?"
Knight Commander: "???"
Your Majesty, don't love too much!
After the knight commander left with the newspaper, he met several ladies who were extremely delicately dressed.
"Hi Simon, long time no see!"
"Simon, what's in your hand?"
"Does Your Majesty have any special hobbies recently?"
...
Simon sighed.
Looking at the entire empire, there are countless people who want to please His Majesty and delve into his preferences. In particular, His Majesty has always been single. Apart from ladies of the right age among the nobles, some widowed, divorced, or noble ladies who are not around their husbands have also made plans for His Majesty—even if it is just to become His Majesty's mistress, there are great benefits.
Simon scratched his head. Because of his handsome appearance and noble background, he became the head of the Royal Knights at a young age. He has also been secretly flirted with by many noble ladies, so he knows how difficult they are. He hastily handed over the open newspaper in his hand, and left as if fleeing.
"...So Your Majesty likes to read romance novels?"
Seeing the large characters of "The Overbearing God Loves Fiercely", the noble ladies looked at each other, showing disbelief in their eyes.
"Haha, how is it possible!"
"Your Majesty is not such a person."
"Yeah, I don't read this kind of novels, I usually study classical literature, like the famous epic writer Sosa in the early days of the empire, his I have collected a whole study room for works and analysis of famous artists."
"I prefer the romantic school. I bought all the hardcover poems of Miss Wei Na." "
That's right, no one will read this kind of romance novel in the tabloid newspaper. The name is so vulgar. The reason why His Majesty would be impressed by the newspaper I am interested because his photo is printed on it."
"The knight commander must have made a mistake, so His Majesty can't read that kind of novel!" "
We don't want to read it either."
"Yes, it is absolutely impossible to read it. "
However, after a while, several housekeepers from the noble lady's house met unexpectedly when they went out to buy newspapers.
They looked at each other tacitly, expressing that they had never seen each other here.
"Your Highness, Your Highness! Our newspaper is selling like crazy! I've already had thousands of copies printed, but it's still sold out quickly!" In the lazy afternoon, Luo Ya was lying on a deck chair in the garden for a nap when she suddenly heard an excited voice.
Strands of light shine through the shadow of the wisteria and fall on the girl's pure and beautiful face as white as jade. Her long light golden eyelashes moved slightly, and her pupils, as bright and clear as the dawn sky, slowly opened.
"Calm down, thousands of copies are not a lot of money." Luo Ya said calmly.
"Your Highness, you don't understand at all. Our newspaper office usually does business at a loss. If you can sell hundreds of copies, you will be crazy!
" I can't put it down!"
"Your Majesty?"
Luo Ya sat up instantly.
Augustine saw their papers?
Oops, there is also a photo of his thin waist and buttocks (serious version) printed on it!
Luo Ya rubbed her forehead and felt that it was necessary for her to meet him and explain.
In case His Majesty is angry, the newspaper office she newly invested in will be sealed up.
"Don't do such stupid things in the future," Luo Ya repeatedly urged, "Your Majesty is not someone we can afford to provoke."
Bev: "Huh? But His Majesty liked this newspaper very much, and even sent someone to give us a pennant of 'Royal Family Certified の Excellent Newspaper Office'." Luo Ya: "..." She thought hard and couldn't figure it out.
Could it be that Augustine is a narcissist and that photo was taken to his satisfaction?
