As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 77
Advertisement
Monn's sudden burst of aura completely suppressed the atmosphere of the entire banquet.
Kyle hurriedly retreated. His entire body seemed to have been almost crushed by Monn's aura at some point in time.
On the other hand, the First Prince's face was filled with excitement.
He actually did not retreat at all after finally experiencing Monn's strength.
He even gathered all of his initial stage saint level strength and gritted his teeth as he stood in front of him.
The blood vessels all over his body bulged, and his dark skin became red by the blood.
Fortunately, Monn's Aura was not directed at him. Otherwise, his blood vessels would have all broken and his blood would have spurted out.
Monn gathered all of his aura and stared at Kyle.
Kyle was sweating profusely, and his whole body was creaking as if he could not bear the weight.
He gritted his teeth to hold on for a while. Finally, he couldn't take it anymore, he knelt down and fell to the ground.
His originally slightly handsome face was stuck to the cold ground. His entire face was squeezed and twisted.
Monn sat in his seat and didn't even look at him. He picked up a cup of tea and took a sip calmly.
It was as if the person who had caused the entire banquet to be in this state was not him.
The nobles who were thinking of laughing at him just now also turned pale. They did not expect that this cardinal would suddenly unleash his strength.
Most of all, they did not expect that his strength would be so strong, causing them to break out in cold sweat.
The king who was not far away finally noticed the situation here. As he already had a clue of Monn's strength, he was not surprised. However, his expression still changed slightly when he saw Monn suddenly unleash his strength.

He only felt that someone must have accidentally provoked him.
He was even more afraid that Monn would start a massacre at the banquet if he did not agree with him. In that case, even as the king, it would not be easy to deal with him.
Fortunately, Monn only intimidated Kyle for a moment. This caused the worried king to heave a sigh of relief in his heart. However, his gaze at Kyle flashed with displeasure.
He had emphasized before the banquet started that Cardinal Monn was very strong. However, Kyle did not believe it!
His gaze was low, and his entire body exuded the majesty of a king.
He said in a serious tone, "What's going on?"
Seeing this, Monn could not continue to exude his power. After all, he was here as a guest even though he was invited.
It was not good to not giving face to the host.
But Kyle didn't think so.
He thought that the king's might would make Monn no longer dare to be arrogant.
Raising his pale face, his eyes were bloodshot. He stared fiercely at Monn like an injured beast.
"Your Majesty, this cardinal actually dared to use his strength at your banquet. He really did not put you in his eyes! Please punish him severely!"
Kyle's voice was hoarse, as if he had squeezed his voice out of his throat.
As the eldest son of the Sena family, and even the heir, Kyle had every reason to believe that the king would definitely punish this little cardinal harshly for him!
Even if he was a member of the Aldrich, he could not escape his anger.
He widened his bloodshot eyes, as if he had already seen the miserable appearance of this cardinal. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl into a smug smile.

"Cardinal Monn, I'm really sorry. It's our royal family's fault for not treating you well."
When he heard the king's words, Kyle's smile instantly froze on his face.
He rubbed his ears as if he could not believe it.
He did not expect that when the king heard Kyle's words, not only did he not punish the cardinal, he even apologized to him?
"No! King! You must have made a mistake!" Kyle pointed in Monn's direction and shouted loudly.
Unexpectedly, King Aldrich didn't even look at him and directly ordered, "Guards, drag this impolite guy out."
After saying that, he didn't even look at the Sena family's people's expressions. Instead, he continued to look at Monn.
He invited, "It's about time, General Barton has also arrived at the banquet. Cardinal Monn, why don't you come up for a gathering?"
Monn was about to reject as he didn't want to chat with a bunch of men.
However, at this moment, the king continued, "Oh yes, I haven't introduced to you. This is General Barton. His army is specifically in charge of St Servant. The two of you can have a good chat."
Hearing this, Monn swallowed back his refusal at his lips.
Since he was the person in charge of St. Servant, Monn no longer refused.
His job today was to discuss the attack of the werewolves in St Servant. Initially he was wondering when the king would tell him about it. In the end, he was actually waiting for this general named Barton.
Monn nodded at the king and then walked towards the king's dining table.
When the people around saw that the king not only did not put the blame on the cardinal, but he also treated him with great respect, and he even chased out the eldest son of the Sena family, Kyle, everyone's expressions changed.
At the same time, the status of this Monn rose by several levels.
However, even if he was not valued by the king, the strength that Monn had just displayed was also highly valued by them.
Barton sat on the right hand of the king, and his sharp eyes sized up this calm-looking kid.
He could not help but feel a trace of interest in his heart.
In addition to the king's actions, his interest of protecting the kingdom was even stronger.
Monn slowly walked up the steps and nodded lightly at Barton, who was sizing him up.
Then, he sat opposite the king with a calm expression.
Barton stroked his gray beard and said with great interest, "Young friend, you are really bold!"
Monn said calmly, "I have only solved a little trouble."
"Whoa, this little trouble young friend really uses it well."
Barton said with a smile.
Monn did not dwell on this topic and said straightforwardly, "It's getting late. Let's talk about business."
"Okay," Barton agreed. He was straightforward, too.
Then, on the main seat, Monn and Barton began to discuss in detail.
Finally, when it was getting late and it was almost time for Monn to get off work. The topic finally came to an end.
After the conversation, Monn finally finished his work for the day, so he left.
He stood up and said, "Since the matter has been settled, I won't stay any longer."
As soon as he said that, Monn turned around and was about to leave. This situation made the king slightly stunned, and then he quickly shouted, "Please wait a moment, Cardinal Monn."

The White Rabbit: Book 2
In the Urillian Empire, the Empress Xandra rules three-quarters of the planet Xren from her home in the capital of the Earth Continent. Both the fire and water peoples have fallen under her might after a series of wars stretching back three centuries. Earth elves, under Xandra's rule, have spread throughout the planet and established colonies, and are, by all accounts, enjoying what seems to be a prosperous and happy existence. But not everyone in Uril is happy. The holy books speak of elves as the Chosen People of Thesis, tasked with guiding and protecting the lower races. For some people, this scripture has been interpreted to designate their life as one on the lowest rungs of society. Humans have been reduced to a slave class, and serve their elven masters under Xandra's rule, kept at bay by the constant fear of the dreaded Emerald Knight, and their own perceived weakness. Humans do not lead long lives, nor do they possess the wisdom, power, or magical acumen of their elven masters. But there is hope. A group of people have banded together to fight against Xandra, her Knight, and her empire. They call themselves the "Knights of Order" united under the principle idea that Xandra's reign has brought chaos unto Xren, and they wish to restore order. These Knights are led by a man named Xaxac Brigaddon, spoken of as a legend. They say that when the moons are full, some humans transform into powerful beasts. They say that Xaxac is the most powerful warrior on Xren, that in his youth he was enslaved and forced to fight other humans to the death in a bloodsport called "cage fighting", that he could not be touched and held the world championship title for three years running until he faked his own death and escaped his master to join the resistance. They say that he has friends in high places- noblemen, pirates, and the devil himself. They say that if you can find him, he can ferry you to freedom in places where the Earth Elves fear to tread. They say that he is immune to magical attack, and his eyes shine like the silver moon. They say that he is descended from Quizlivian Brigaddon, one of the humans who helped the demon Magnus escape a god. They say that if you want to walk the Path of Order, you should follow the White Rabbit.Come and watch the transformation from human boy to Knight of Order: The life and times of Xaxac OfAgalon OfLangil Brigaddon. Content Warning: This work is based on the real experiences of human trafficing survivors. Xaxac's origins are based on true events, and they are presented realisitcally; this includes but is not limited to: isolation, gaslighting, emotional and sexual abuse, and grooming tactics. This work is meant to hold a mirror up to society; it is based on the real of experiences of people who have experienced slavery and/or abuse. It is an adult work and probably should not be read by anyone under the age of 18. If you are a survivor of human trafficing and/or abuse, your feedback is welcome, but please do not read this if you think it may trigger your trauma. I did not write this with the intention of harming anyone, but rather to provide accurate representation for a group that does not normally get it in the hopes of changing the zeitgeist. I would like to see a world where more people understand what these experiences are like, so that real survivors do not have to deal with microagressions from an ignorant public. Reader discretion is advised. This book does not display these elements as heavily as book 1.
