As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 155
Advertisement
Helping Alma get into the academy.
Under the watchful eyes of the academy's teachers and deans, Monn and the others walked out of the academy.
After solving the problem of Alma going to school, it was like a stone was lifted from Monn's chest.
Monn took Alma's education very seriously.
After leaving Alma at the academy, it was almost time for Monn to go to work.
It was nine o'clock in the morning, and it was time for Monn to go to work.
Monn arrived at San Lorenzo just in time.
When he, Ace, and Asher came to the Holy Cathedral,
They found that the second son of the Francis family, Jerome, from yesterday, was also here.
There seemed to be a figure standing behind him.
But because the figure was very small, it made it difficult for Monn and the others to see its exact appearance.
However, they also did not care.
What made them curious was what Jerome came to the Holy Cathedral to do.
It could not be because of a gift that had not been given to them yet.
When they walked in,
Jerome heard footsteps.
He immediately turned his head and saw that it was them,
And carried out the Orthodox Church's exclusive etiquette.
The dark red nobleman attire on his body made him appear very calm.
He displayed the demeanor of a Nobleman.
It made people feel relaxed and happy.
If there were girls on the streets of San Lorenzo who saw this, they would definitely cry out in surprise.
They would wish that they could devote their entire body and mind to this Nobleman.
After paying his respects, Jerome looked at Monn and the others, and smiled. "Good morning, Pope Monn, Her Highness Saintess Ace, and unknown elf girl."
His red eyes flashed. When he saw the elf girl, his eyes flashed with inexplicable meaning.

It did not seem like Monn and Ace who had just arrived in San Lorenzo.
As the Masters of San Lorenzo, the Francis family was very familiar with the forces around the city.
After all, they were all neighbors. If something happened one day...
They could also be on guard.
Therefore, the Francis family had always been very careful with information about the forces around them.
At the banquet yesterday, Jerome knew that this elf girl had an extraordinary status the moment he saw her.
Especially after seeing the resplendent emerald around her neck.
It was sparkling like a living being.
People couldn't help but stare at it.
But Jerome quickly came back to his senses.
Although this elf girl's identity might not be simple,
This matter was, after all, a matter of the Orthodox Church, so Jerome didn't want to say anything more.
Plus, the elf girl didn't cause trouble.
This made Jerome not want to meddle in other people's business,
As long as it didn't trigger the elves to do anything bad to San Lorenzo.
Although the elves hated humans, they were also kind.
They wouldn't easily launch a war against other forces because of a small matter.
Jerome was very assured about this.
When he turned around,
A petite figure behind him suddenly appeared.
"Dang Dang!"
"You didn't expect this right!"
"Miss Heidi graciously appears!"
A petite and lovely girl wearing a red gown suddenly appeared in front of Monn and the others.
Her actions were very exaggerated,
But it did not scare them.
Except for Asher, who was a little confused.
Monn and Ace were expressionless.
Regarding the possibility of the girl being Heidi,
Monn and Ace guessed so early on.
They just could not confirm it.
Seeing that Monn and Ace were not surprised, Heidi immediately curled her lips.

She looked bored.
Seeing this, Jerome smiled helplessly.
Then he pushed Heidi back behind him.
She said helplessly, "I'm sorry. My sister is a little naughty and caused trouble for everyone."
Monn did not have any reaction.
But Ace heard this and snorted twice. She said, "She is indeed very naughty. I hope you can bring her back home and teach her the etiquette of nobility."
No one knew why Heidi was here today.
As a rival in love, how could she not know?
She knew this woman too well.
So she absolutely couldn't show any kindness.
Of course, Heidi heard what she said and curled her lips in disdain.
Then she watched as Ace made a face.
But she was stopped by Jerome, who had seen all this.
Seeing this, Ace didn't want to lose her temper.
Besides, this was the territory of the Francis family.
In fact, Ace didn't have the authority to let Heidi leave here,
But Ace didn't look happy.
She snorted and stopped looking at her.
Monn saw that the two women finally stopped,
Then he looked at Jerome and asked, "What's the matter?"
Jerome heard this.
Only then did he remember what he had to do at the Orthodox Church today.
He looked at Pope Monn and said with a serious face, "There is one thing, Pope Monn."
After hearing this, Monn's eyes did not change.
He only nodded slightly, indicating for him to continue.
Seeing this, Jerome said directly, "Before Pope Monn arrived at San Lorenzo, something strange happened in our town."
He paused for a moment, before continuing, "In the village east of San Lorenzo, some of the villagers' food disappeared without a trace. This has been going on for many days, but we haven't found anything strange."
Saying this, Jerome gaze became more and more serious, "Just last night, the situation finally progressed. Our soldiers stationed near the village overnight saw a figure who stole food. However, that figure was extremely fast. The soldiers couldn't catch up with him at all, so they could only let him run out. One of the soldiers was even injured by him."
Saying this, Jerome was indeed relieved. "It doesn't seem to want to hurt people. Other than the wound, that soldier's life isn't in any danger."
Monn nodded and asked, "Do you have any clues?"
Jerome replied, "I suspect it's a night feline monster"
Monn looked at him as if he was asking why.
Jerome continued, "After confirming the soldier's wounds yesterday, they indeed look like they were caused by a night feline monster."
Only then did Monn realize that he did not actually know much about the races in San Lorenzo.
Since Jerome could confirm it, there should be no problem.
