Chapter 364: Information

~7 min read 1,231 words

For an entire morning, Klein was busy processing the documents that Archbishop Claude had left piled up for over a month.

Among them were documents from churches all over Loen requesting funding; it was astonishing that they could be left sitting for so long.

But the strange thing was that not a single church of the Dream Sect had ever complained about a lack of money!

"This one..." Under the guidance of his Spirituality, Klein found the item he currently valued most.

A proposal for the implementation of the "Survival Act" from the Royal Family and the major churches.

This was the benefit of status; by exercising the power of a Dream Archbishop, he could easily access this type of document.

"The Royal Family suggests that the major churches write the right to survival into their Scripture..." This sentence alone made Klein's pupils constrict.

"How is that possible?!"

What is the Scripture? It is the most inviolable part of the Church, even recording the Divine Oracle descended by the True God, embodying the True God's teachings to believers, and serving as the foundation for proselytizing.

How absurd this suggestion from the Royal Family was! Even something beneficial to believers like the "Survival Act" could not possibly be written into the Church's Scripture!

"Perhaps the Royal Family doesn't truly want to do this, but rather wants to express a will through this method—a firm will to implement the 'Survival Act'."

It was roughly that this noble lady would represent the Hall Family and the Evernight Church to establish an Association for the Protection of Women and Children's Rights, providing some help to the women and children in the East District who lacked the ability to work.

This was a feeling Klein had never experienced before.

"Audrey Hall? Miss 'Justice'?"

To pay such a high price, it could only mean that the Royal Family was plotting something immense.

"Association for the Protection of Women and Children's Rights?" This was a project closely related to this "most dazzling gem of Backlund."

From this perspective, this law was being implemented quite well under the promotion of various parties.

"Huh? That's not right; I am now the biggest tree the Dream Sect has in Backlund." Klein thought thoughtfully.

Just by sitting in this position, similar information would certainly come to his desk, and he also had the ability to influence the direction of the will of the entire Backlund Royal Family, nobility, and churches.

"With such a will driving it, the nobles and capitalists will be wary because of it and won't dare to cause trouble."

"Perhaps, I can act more domineeringly and directly in this identity..."

This was also a part of the implementation of the "Survival Act."

The appearance of this name was truly unexpected.

"Do the other churches know? For example, the Evernight Church?" Klein felt as if he had touched upon some high-level scheme, and his subconscious reaction was to lean on a big tree.

"Continue." Klein filtered out the parts he needed from these documents, among which one document caught his attention because he saw a familiar name.

At the noble banquet Klein attended when he first entered Backlund, he had already recognized this early-stage financier of the "Tarot Club."

Klein would be happy that the survival rights of the poor were being protected, but on the other hand, it also gave him a strange sense of horror.

Just this little bit of information was certainly not enough to complete the mission; Klein needed to investigate further.

"Bishop, Miss Audrey Hall is here." It was also quite a coincidence that just as Klein finished reading this document, he heard the cleric's report.

"This young lady has already come to our church for the third time; previously, we turned her away on the grounds that Bishop Claude was not in."

Klein was speechless; therefore, it was best for him not to refuse, because this noble lady represented the Hall Family and the Evernight Church.

"No wonder Claude ran so fast..." Even with a few clerics helping to process that pile of backlogged documents, he was already somewhat tired.

Klein slowly stood up, preparing to meet this Miss "Justice."

He and this young lady could be considered familiar; not to mention the transactions above the Grey Fog, even in the Phantom Realm, Klein had supported the Fool Boat for her for several months.

"Hello, beautiful lady, I am John Constantine." Klein met Audrey Hall again in the reception room.

"Good day, Bishop." Audrey Hall's emerald eyes reflected Klein's shadow, and Klein's somewhat weary spirit instantly jolted awake.

Almost forgot, this is a "Spectator"... Klein politely invited Audrey Hall to sit down to discuss the matters of establishing the Association for the Protection of Women and Children's Rights.

Located in the East District and occupying an irreplaceable position in the hearts of the people of the East District, the Dream Sect was the most suitable to do this, and Audrey Hall was the specific executor.

He seemed a bit relaxed at first, but soon became tense again, masking his true expression... Audrey was a qualified "Spectator" and noticed the unnaturalness in Klein's attitude.

Like those who know me... Audrey Hall sat down gracefully and glanced lightly at the golden retriever following behind her.

The golden retriever Susie stuck out its tongue and looked at Klein; the tacit understanding between master and servant allowed it to also enter the "Spectator" state.

"..." Klein was surrounded by "Spectators" and always had the feeling of sitting in an interrogation room.

"The project for the Rights Protection Association can start directly." Klein decided to start discussing this serious matter immediately.

"Thank you for your support, Bishop." Audrey's expression indeed became much more serious.

This noble lady had also gained significant growth during that evil god sacrifice incident and needed an opportunity to realize her own value.

And this association was a very good opportunity.

"Clerics will cooperate with your actions later..." Klein still wanted to end the current topic as soon as possible; after all, he really didn't want to face two "Spectators."

However, before he could even say the words, his Spirituality made him swallow his words of departure.

"... However, the Protection Association is not complete. If we want to carry out the 'Survival Act', we still need to work hard in other areas, for example, you nobles."

Klein looked at Audrey Hall and said; he needed to get more information from the representative of the nobility.

"Hmm." Audrey Hall nodded lightly.

"Because of this matter, the Royal Family is already preparing an internal meeting with major nobles as well as some famous bankers and wealthy merchants." Audrey revealed the Royal Family's arrangements.

"A noble meeting?!" Klein realized the value of this meeting in an instant; as long as he pushed for this meeting to take place, he would probably be able to complete the mission!

This was the reason his Spirituality instructed him to remain here, bearing the gazes of two "Spectators."

"As the person in charge of the Dream Sect, I feel I should be deeply involved in this matter." Klein looked seriously at the noble lady opposite him.

"Not just me, but the other churches also need to supervise from the sidelines." Klein directly made a reasonable request in the name of the Dream Sect.

"This?" Audrey blinked, unable to react for a moment.
