I suppressed the weirdness in the shelter

Chapter 154 The Pool Party Is the Most Important

Helen knew that Wyatt had strong connections in the church, but she didn't expect it to be so strong.

Wyatt almost became the Son of God.

Looking at Wyatt, who was limp on the sofa as if he had no bones, Helen was a little surprised for a moment.

It’s not that she doesn’t believe it, but when too many things happen to the same person, it becomes a little outrageous.

One of the ten outstanding alumni of Clara College, a well-known legend in the military, and even almost became the Son of God of the Church.

Helen was already beginning to wonder how much Wyatt was hiding.

"Since you and the director are old acquaintances, I believe you also know the director. Do you mind if I host this meeting?"

"Of course I don't mind."

"Your letter only mentioned your intention to visit the four institutes, but did not specify the reason. May I ask why you are visiting the four institutes this time?"

"It's not a big deal. His Holiness' health is deteriorating, and the next Pope will be announced soon, so I came to invite Brother Wyatt to return to the Theocracy."

"I see. Then..."

Helen quickly realized that there was something wrong with this sentence.

What does "not a big deal" mean?
Is the announcement of the successor to the Pope's priesthood a big deal? !
Are all the people from your church so calm in the face of adversity?

Helen still had a stern face, which was probably her only professional quality.

To be honest, after assisting Wyatt for a period of time, Helen felt that her professionalism had declined a lot.

The current Pope, Falladux V, is already 150 years old, which is indeed very long-lived, so it is not surprising that he wants to abdicate now.

Helen continued to ask questions following Rupert's answer.

"Then why did you invite the director?"

"In fact, we are not just inviting Brother Wyatt. We have also invited many allies this time, including the Tower of Knowledge, the Plane Border Army, and the Elf King's Court. Everyone will send representatives."

After Rupert explained the origins of the representatives one by one, Helen had already raised the importance of this invitation to the highest level.

The "omniscient" Tower of Knowledge is the most authoritative symbol of the academic world and the headquarters of the Scholars Alliance. They claim to have gathered all the known knowledge in the world and they are the main force driving the progress of civilization.

The plane border army of "Great Power" is mainly composed of orcs. They are born to advocate the use of force, and will use battles to hone themselves even in peacetime, so they take the initiative to assume the responsibility of guarding the plane border.

The "Eternal" Elf King's Court, as the most mysterious and ancient righteous god, must be followed by the oldest race in the world. It is really rare for them to be willing to leave the forest.

If the Fourth Asylum is considered "order", then the new Pope announced this time will gather all the five great gods.

At the same time, this also made Helen feel strange. It was just an announcement of the new Pope, so why did they invite the allies on the side of the righteous gods?

Is he preparing to ascend the throne on the spot?

The most important thing is that the Theocracy actually invited all parties, even the most pretentious elves were persuaded.

"... Director, what do you think?"

"I don't want to go far. I'm so tired—"

Helen didn't know what to say. With Ruburt here, she couldn't use any useful tricks.

I'm really stumped.

Faced with Wyatt's lack of motivation, Helen could only give him a few dry words of advice.

Ruburt, who was sitting opposite, had an idea in his mind.

Anyone who has spent some time with Wyatt can tell exactly what kind of person he is. Although Nora's attitude is bad and her comments are exaggerated, her comments are deeply recognized by the victims.

Rupert had known since childhood what would pique Wyatt's interest.

"Brother Wyatt, do you still remember Luvia?"

"Little Luvia, of course I remember. You, Eddie and I used to follow her around every day. But unfortunately she has grown up to be such a shrewd girl. I still miss her from the past. At least she would call me 'Brother Wyatt' sweetly."

"Then do you remember what you said to her when you left the Church?"

"I remember it was something like, 'Whoever wants to be the tattered saint can do it, I won't be greedy for a penny, and you can earn more money by leading refugees in the wilderness'... That should be it."

"Brother Wyatt has a really good memory, not a single word is wrong... So have you made any money now?"

This is really a very pointed question.

Ten years after leaving home, he graduated from Clara College, joined the military, and finally became the director of the Fourth Fallen Asylum.

Wyatt's glorious decade left behind many legends. Although most of them had strange reviews, they were still some achievements.

But your pockets are really cleaner than your face.

Money is always a pain in Wyatt's heart, especially right now.

"Swimming pool... swimsuit party... no money... wuwuwu..."

Helen could only sigh now.

Wyatt slammed the coffee table angrily and approached Ruburt.

"Why did you bring this up? You look down on me, don't you? I'm telling you, someone asked me yesterday if I wanted to marry a princess. If I wanted to, I could marry not only a princess but even a prince. Then the kingdom's treasury would be mine!"

"I don't mean to offend you. I just want to say that your words at the time were a big blow to Luvia, so she actively engaged in business in addition to studying theology, and achieved some success. In the past few years, she has been quietly purchasing real estate for you, hoping to persuade you to come back one day..."

"Helen! Let's go to the Theocracy!"

Helen saw stars in Wyatt's eyes. If you ask what's going on in Wyatt's mind at this moment, probably everyone can guess it.

Go to the Church Country and sell a few houses, then come back with the money to build a swimming pool.

With the help of rent from the remaining buildings, the pool party was changed from once a week to once every three days.

Guests no longer need to bring their own swimsuits, which makes it easier for him to limit the amount of fabric.

The temptation of the selected successor to the Pope is not as good as a swimming pool. If this gets out, how will the Church save its reputation?

Helen just sighed helplessly at Wyatt's whim and ignored him. Instead, she looked at Ruburt and continued to ask questions.

"You must have met His Majesty before coming to the Four Institutes during your visit to the Kingdom."

"Yes."

"In that case, it is the royal family that represents "order", not us, so we are just accompanying them."

"Yes, Miss Adjutant is really considerate. Does this dispel your concerns?"

Considering the backgrounds of the representatives of the other three parties, Helen felt that it was somewhat inappropriate for the Four Institutes to represent "Order".

Now it seems that the four schools are just a bonus, perhaps just because some big shot wants to meet Wyatt.

Although Wyatt's decision seemed like a joke, Helen knew he was serious.

If that's the case, there's nothing to worry about.
