As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 179
Advertisement
At noon, the sun blazed like fire.
San Lorenzo.
In the Orthodox Church.
Jerome was speaking with confidence.
He was introducing the functions of the Holy Grail in the royal treasury.
Its inexhaustible properties made the entire elf clan's expression change when they heard it.
Elf leader Eiffel's expression was solemn.
Since Jerome dared to speak of the magic of the divine artefact, it meant that the royal family's treasure vault had a more divine artifact that wasn't inferior to theirs.
Just by hearing about the characteristics of the Holy Grail,
Made Eiffel's mood very grave.
There being another divine artifact that was more powerful than theirs in the royal family's treasure vault...
Eiffel couldn't even imagine it.
Even though the two countries were neighbors,
They were elves, and even though they were a peaceful race,
The humans made them a little disgusted.
Once humans crossed the line,
No matter how peaceful they were, they wouldn't be able to stand it.
Jerome glanced at the elves' faces out of the corner of his eye.
He smiled faintly.
There were two reasons why Jerome shared about the Holy Grail.
On one hand, it was to let Pope Monn know that he had a way to solve the problem of the lack Holy Power.
On the other hand, it was to show the elves the power of humans,
To make them afraid.
Seeing that that was achieved,
Jerome was very satisfied,
So he stopped bragging about the power of the Holy Grail.
He turned to look at Monn.
He hoped to get Monn's reply.
After all, if he wanted to deal with the night feline monsters, he still needed Monn's ability.
Monn looked at Jerome calmly.
He was a little surprised.
He didn't expect the royal family to have such a magical artifact.
Since there was an inexhaustible source of Holy Power,

Then Monn could, of course, perform the Demon Sealing Dance.
Monn nodded and said, "In that case, let's wait for the arrival of the Holy Grail before we launch the encirclement of the night feline monsters."
Jerome nodded heavily.
Seeing this, Monn turned his head and said to elf leader Eiffel, "I'll have to trouble the elf team to wait a little longer."
Elf leader Eiffel hurriedly waved his hand.
"It's okay. We're the ones bothering you."
Monn didn't reply.
To Monn, what he said just now was just a formality.
Disperse the Holy Knights and let them train freely.
Elf leader Eiffel saw this.
He also dismissed the elf team.
Let them move freely.
Asher walked to elf leader Eiffel's side.
She held Eiffel's arm.
She asked curiously, "Eiffel, aren't you guys leaving today?"
Eiffel rolled his eyes at her.
He said helplessly, "So many night feline monsters are blocking the Elf Forest. How are we supposed to go back?"
Asher stuck out her tongue and giggled.
She felt that her question was a little silly.
However, Asher was still very happy that Eiffel and the others suddenly decided to stay.
After all, it was good to have familiar people by her side.
Even though she had become quite familiar with Monn and Ace the past few days,
She still hoped that she could have someone by her side who she had played with since she was young.
Otherwise, she would always feel a little uneasy.
Now, she finally had someone with her.
The solution was decided upon.
Jerome and the rest took their leave.
Monn carefully thought about what had happened today.
He discovered that although their group of Paladins were effective, they still could not solve everything in the face of some problems.
It seemed that they still had to do some targeted training.

Otherwise, they would have to go and customize some magical artifacts that could increase their speed.
However, the Holy Church of the righteous would still have to bear the burden of requesting the weapons to be custom-made magical artifacts.
It seemed that they needed to find a time to consult His Holiness, the Pope about the funding issue.
Also, to ask him about his salary as a member of the church.
Hmm...
Actually, the last question was what he really wanted to ask.
That was the problem with the Orthodox Church. The salary was not transparent.
He then took the elves for a stroll.
The day passed.
Apart from the matter of the night feline monsters, Monn did not have any other work today.
5 pm in the evening.
The few of them strutted toward the market.
The number of members on their way home increased.
Elf leader Eiffel didn't want to come,
But Asher kept dragging him.
This made him feel helpless.
She looked apologetically at Pope Monn.
Monn's mouth twitched.
She thought that this Eiffel really didn't have any self-awareness.
Fortunately, Eiffel was quite tactful.
He said, "When I return to the elf tribe in the future, I will report to the Queen about our food expenses today."
Monn nodded slightly. He felt that this elf was not bad. He was very good at resolving issues.
He was not like that elf who only knew how to eat and drink for free.
How could she actually be an Elf Princess?
It was really a disgrace to the word "Princess".
Monn couldn't help but think of Sheryl. Look at that princess.
She was so generous.
She threw out a few gold pounds without batting an eye.
This made Monn miss Sheryl very much,
More like the gold pounds in her pocket.
Monn glanced at Asher from the corner of his eye.
He shook his head internally.
The difference...
Asher heard what Eiffel said.
She was a little puzzled. "What's the food fee?"
Monn had no words.
So did Eiffel.
Seeing the two of them, she was a little speechless.
Eiffel just looked at her quietly.
Asher's face suddenly turned red, and she said, "I really don't know!"
Seeing how clueless Asher was,
Eiffel touched her forehead.
She had forgotten that her Princess didn't seem to know,
Because she had always eaten with the elves.
Was she, the Princess expected to pay?
Moreover, the food of the elves could be found in the Elf Forest.
It was pure natural food.
It depended on the forest's condition.
Of course, they didn't need any money.
At this moment, Ace saw that Monn was still staring at her like a fool.
Asher immediately shouted, "But the elf race has never needed money when we ate!"
Elf Princess Asher's small face was full of anger.
It was bright red.
No one knew if it was because she was embarrassed or angry.
The words she said were also justified.
Because this was the truth!
She really didn't pay money when she ate with the elves.
It was her first time coming to a human city, so as a Princess, she naturally didn't have self-awareness.
Although Asher had seen Monn thinking about the payment from the vendors in the market when they went out to buy vegetables,
At that time, Asher really did not think about paying.
After all, she had long been used to the behavior of leaving after eating in the elf tribe.
Moreover, they did not even ask her for money!
