章 428: The Progress of the Church

Benjamin’s meeting with the King did not last very long. After about half an hour later, they left the restaurant.

They had come to agree on a secret alliance.

"I can help you to take care of the Church but conversely, you should contribute in return. I want to build a real magic school. The land, manpower, funds... will be provided by you."

When Benjamin first made his request, the King was caught off guard. But he knew that he didn't have much choice. Benjamin did not have the intention to seize power so agreeing to these terms was better than being impinged by the Church.

Therefore, the King nodded in agreement and did not protest.

Thereafter, he started to provide Benjamin about the Church’s latest information. Benjamin then had realized, how deeply invested the Church was.
