Chapter 611 -413 Arrival at the Royal City_3

The allure for the group of merchants was indeed immense.

“…My dear believers, I see your devotion to the ‘God of Covenant’, and He will surely protect every one who abides by a covenant, while severely punishing those traitors who resort to any means for profit!”

On the pulpit of the hall, a middle-aged man in a black windbreaker and glasses was holding the Generous Council Bible, the ‘Justice Scroll,’ and speaking to the believers below.

Two young men dressed in similar black stood at the foot of the stage, by a donation box that was being continuously filled with coins by believers… and even with bank receipts by wealthy businessmen, with amounts ranging from a few hundred to over a thousand Gold Pounds.

“A couple of days ago, a resident from the Upper City District came to the Generous Church and confessed to me in the confessional room about a business deception from his youth… He feared that his sins would be settled by the ‘God of Covenant’.”

The man in the black windbreaker and glasses spoke solemnly.

There was a stir in the crowd below.

The believers’ faces were filled with shock and dismay, as many among them had also violated covenants. But no one dared to confess their dark past here, even preferring to selectively forget such incidents.

Hypocrisy is a human flaw; no one wants others to break a covenant, yet they are unwilling to admit their own mistakes.

Seeing the reaction of the believers, the corners of the man in the black windbreaker and glasses curled up slightly, and then he had someone bring over a large golden goblet filled with a transparent and limpid liquid.

“However, there is no need for concern, this is the ‘Atonement Holy Water’ from the Generous Council, and by drinking just one cup, all past sins can be erased… After all, until now you hadn’t heard the gospel of our Lord, and this is the opportunity given to you.”

When a believer asked if the Atonement Holy Water had to be purchased, the man in the black windbreaker and glasses shook his head.

“The opportunity for atonement is a generosity from our Lord, and naturally there won’t be any charge, as that would be a desecration… However, if you deeply believe in the weight of your sins, you may donate as a form of gratitude to our Lord.”

“Thank you for answering my question, Priest Brendan.”

A fat businessman, wiping the sweat from his forehead, respectfully performed a prayer gesture from the Generous Council, spreading his hands flat and bringing them to his chest, followed by a light tap on the left breast, first left then right.

“I… I would like to drink a cup of the ‘Atonement Holy Water,’ Father.”

Priest Brendan in the black windbreaker and glasses smiled and signaled with his hand.

“Of course, please do.”

The corpulent businessman walked forward, took the Atonement Holy Water poured by a man in black, and drank it down. Although colorless and tasteless like ordinary drinking water, he felt as if his body and soul were being cleansed.

He sighed, as if relieved, and began to smile happily.

The fat businessman did not hesitate to pull out an Empire bank receipt and drop it into the donation box.

“One thousand two hundred Gold Pounds, I am grateful for the forgiveness and redemption from the Lord.”

He spoke devoutly.

Priest Brendan’s face showed a gratified expression as he approvingly nodded his head.

Seeing this, many other believers stepped forward to ask for “Atonement Holy Water,” and then, like the fat businessman, they appeared relieved and made their donations.

With those in front behaving this way, it was difficult for those behind to simply walk away without doing the same.

However, at that moment, a man in black hurried over to Priest Brendan’s side and whispered:

“Councillor Brendan, the Governing Officer Jack from the Senate is here.”

“?!”

Priest Brendan’s pupils constricted slightly.

He quickly calmed his rapid breathing and his eyes flickered with thought.

“How could he be here so soon… but no matter, we’re only temporarily managing this church anyway. Since he’s here, let’s hand it over to him… It’s a pity we can’t make more Gold Pounds.”
