Chapter 195 Remnant Soul
To this day, everything the Pope does is highly utilitarian.

Just as the Pope made the Fourth Paladin pledge allegiance in the street, he seemed to be able to do anything to ensure Wyatt's smooth succession to the throne.

That's why Wyatt raised this question.

Was it out of guilt for Grey that he buried her, or was it a way to comfort himself so that he could willingly succeed the throne of Pope?

Once suspicion arises, the crime is established.

Now, in Wyatt's opinion, the Pope definitely had his own selfish motives in choosing to bury Grey.

Otherwise, could it be that the old man suddenly came to his senses before his death, felt that he owed Grey too much, and so decided to bring her remaining soul back to the Church after more than ten years and bury her properly?

This is somewhat funny.

If there hadn't been other people present, Wyatt would have already started to laugh at the Pope.

But Wyatt felt angry precisely because he couldn't laugh.

Even after it has come to this, the old man still likes to frame others. Is this your attitude when asking for help?

If Gray wasn't mentioned, Wyatt would be willing to give him a little good face.

Now the only thing Wyatt wants to do is to take away Grey's remaining soul.

He looked at the Pope. The guilt on the latter's face was genuine and no one would question it.

The Pope did not evade Wyatt's question. He knew that this was the will he had to face.

"You also know very well that no one in this world can safely follow the teachings of the Goddess. People always make mistakes. Gray is the mistake I made. No matter what you think, I will bury Gray's remaining soul properly."

The Pope's determination was by no means false. Wyatt could guess that this guy was probably already preparing for Grey's burial ceremony.

What is buried in the requiem cemetery is not just the bodies, ashes or clothes of the deceased, but the remaining souls of the deceased.

The remnants of the soul are caused by supernatural or pollution in the body, and the part of the soul rich in these substances is too heavy to dissipate on its own.

If left unchecked, it may cause some paranormal phenomena.

The art of spiritualism, which has existed since ancient times, relies on residual souls.

According to the church's teachings, the remaining souls of the goddess's followers after death are sacred and inviolable, and the church must protect them.

Among them, the remaining souls dedicated to the church are even more precious, so the church built many cemeteries for burial.

The church's burial ceremony will have special tombstones, which have the function of anchoring the residual soul, completely fixing the residual soul in the cemetery and completely isolating it from the outside world.

However, the influence of residual souls varies, and sometimes the tombstone cannot be completely anchored.

But there is no need to worry. The deceased who can be buried by the church are all selfless people who have dedicated themselves to the church during their lifetime, and their residual souls will not cause harm.

On the contrary, they will even provide some help to like-minded people.

All these helps will consume the extraordinary power deposited in the residual soul. If the extraordinary power is consumed, the residual soul will dissipate.

In the words of the Theocracy, the soul in the Kingdom of God has been completed, and the person has completed the ultimate dedication. He can go to the seat of the Goddess to listen to the holy voice and become Her angel.

The higher the grade of the cemetery where the deceased is buried, the greater the chance that his soul can be completed.

In the minds of believers, being buried in the Requiem Cemetery after death is not only a recognition of his life's achievements, but also an opportunity for him to truly serve the goddess.

This was a huge recognition, but Wyatt wasn't happy at all.

If the Pope really intends to bury Gray's remaining soul in the Requiem Cemetery, then he must figure out whether the remaining soul contains transcendence or pollution. So he should just ask the church to hand over Gray's remaining soul.

Wyatt could only feel at ease if he kept it personally.

"Requiem Cemetery is not safe these days. Are you getting senile, or is your guilt fake?"

"We can discuss this matter later. It's not a good idea to let these four little guys stand here and wait. Let me talk about the coronation ceremony first."

Wyatt sighed. Although the Pope's way of changing the subject was disgusting, he was right. It was indeed difficult to say anything in detail with four little guys present.

Wyatt had already prepared himself mentally. After all, the Pope asked him to come to the altar with the four others. Wasn't that an opportunity for him to listen to the arrangements for the coronation ceremony?

The process of the Pope's coronation is not complicated. As the new Pope, you will be the absolute protagonist of the coronation ceremony, and no one will comment on the protagonist's words and deeds.

Therefore, the Pope spoke very quickly, and Arthur could not even extract any useful information from it.

But in fact, we can draw a conclusion.

This explanation, like following a process, is the conclusion.

The next pope, Faladoux VI, will be Wyatt.

Then, it will be necessary to confirm what will happen if Wyatt refuses to take over.

If the successor is changed, who will the Pope prefer?

Arthur thought of various ways to test, but he finally chose the most straightforward way.

Under normal circumstances, he would never be so abrupt, but the situation is different now.

Everything was a foregone conclusion and nothing could be done to change it, so Arthur thought it would be better for him to just ask directly.

"Your Holiness, I have a question, if..."

"Arthur, your questions will be answered later, don't worry."

"But……"

"I called you here today to explain these things. Now that I have explained them, you can go back." The Pope turned to look at Wyatt, "Next, we can have a good talk."

Arthur didn't expect that he didn't even have the chance to ask questions. At this point, he fully understood that the Pope's attention to Wyatt was far beyond his imagination.

Maybe he will really keep the throne of Pope for Wyatt.

It's really ironic if you think about it carefully. Those who treat it as dirt are always entangled, while those who dream about it can't get it.

Now it seems that the best decision he made recently was to quickly cut ties with Simon and stop trying to frame Wyatt.

Arthur and the other four left the prayer platform together with their different feelings.

Although the explanation this time was understated, it was enough to bother them for a while.

The sound of the door closing reached Wyatt's ears, and he continued the question that had been put on hold.

"Burial Gray's remaining soul in the Requiem Cemetery. Are you planning to hand it over to the Requiem?"

"I'm just confirming, Wyatt." The Pope turned to the stained glass window, "Confirm whose soul the pagans are looking for."
