"Clean up this place and take her to rest. After that, let her see her clansmen. Only when she sees the current state of her clansmen will she be completely at ease.”
Even dragons had their moments as sages. Louis, who had become a Buddha and was temporarily bored, glanced at the wheat-colored skin of Ricciore, who was lying on the ground panting in the garden. He slowly stood up and walked towards the main hall of the dragon's lair. Louis took two steps forward and paused for a moment before continuing,"…Call Clunie over."
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
The elven maids knelt on the ground and said respectfully. Some followed Louis into the hall, some helped Lisafre to her bedroom in the side hall to rest, some quickly took mops and other items to clean up the traces, and there was also an elven girl who hurried to convey Louis 'instructions.
These elves had been serving Louis for more than a month and had already assigned their duties. Although Louis still didn't know the specific names of these elves, he only needed to remember their appearances and know that they were his maids. Everything else was superfluous to the dragon.
He continued to lie on his golden mountain. Soon, footsteps could be heard in the spacious hall. A young man, led by an elf, came to the center of the hall with a little restraint. He knelt on the ground in the dazzling luxury and suffocating emptiness.
The young man was wearing a simple robe. The style of the robe looked like a priest in a church, but there was no God's badge on the robe. It was just the same style.
This young man was the young priest who had gone to warn the archbishop when Louis attacked the city. However, the higher-ups of the church had run away. He and some of the young priests were unlucky and were captured. Louis had made him serve him as a servant to atone for his sins.
Louis did not care about the young man's loyalty as long as he could work for him. He knew that there was no absolute loyalty in this world. No betrayal was just a lack of leverage. Louis believed that as long as he maintained absolute strength, absolute dignity, and absolute justice, no one would dare to betray him.
"Clunie, how's the mission I gave you going?”
Louis's vertical dragon eyes looked at the young human. The dragon's might from the dragon made the young priest tremble.
Beside Louis, a few elven noble girls dressed in muslin knelt on the ground like servants of God. Clunie did not dare to look up at the beautiful muslin girls. Cold sweat trickled down his forehead, and his legs trembled as he said,"…Your Excellency, I have almost completed your mission.”
"According to your instructions, I taught all the civilians of Dragon City, whether humans or elves, to chant your name before every meal. They must stop their work at a fixed time every morning to thank you for your gift.”
Louis nodded his dragon head in satisfaction.
What were the Church's priests best at? In Louis's opinion, it was neither the so-called divine spells nor other messy things, but preaching!
For a priest or priest, whether he was qualified or not was not based on how strong he was, but how many people he could convert to his church.
In the past, Dragon City was a city that belonged to the church. Most of the residents in the city had faith in the church, and Louis would never allow this. Therefore, after he captured the priest of the original church, he gave him a mission. He asked him to use his professional skills to make all the residents of Dragon City forget their past faith and start to believe in him, the dragon lord.
If he succeeded, then Cluny would live. If he failed, the consequences would be obvious. Now, it seemed that this young priest who did not have a firm belief was a talent and a qualified missionary. He had completed his mission well.
Seeing the dragon's satisfied expression, Clunie finally relaxed. He knew that his life was saved. After a pause, he continued,"…I've already given the list of stubborn believers to the Elven guards and asked them to deal with them in secret.”
In the important cities of the former Church, there were definitely families with extremely firm beliefs. Louis was not interested in slowly changing them, nor did he want them to waste his food, so directly getting rid of them was the easiest way.
The dragon was generous and benevolent, but that was only to its subjects and believers. Dragons were cruel and bloody, bringing terror to all enemies!
"You did well, Clunie…"
Louis said slowly.
The young priest quickly lowered his head and said,""…It is all thanks to your generosity and greatness that my work can be completed so easily.”
He was telling the truth. In this materialistic world, most people believed in God for a purpose. They just wanted to eat their fill. Louis fulfilled these people's wishes, so their faith would naturally waver.
Of course, there would definitely be some unwavering believers among the believers of the church who would not waver even if they starved to death. These people had already been dealt with.
Louis wasn't a true god now, so he couldn't bestow divine spells. Moreover, the conversion of the power of faith was relatively slow, so he didn't let the people of Dragon City pray to him directly. Instead, he subtly influenced them. After he understood the divinity and clergy, he could directly turn these people into believers and establish his own church.
He made everyone, whether elves or humans, express their gratitude to him before eating. This was a silent way to nourish things. It would not cause the elves to riot and collapse their faith in the Silver Moon Goddess, resulting in distrust. Louis was only making them grateful for his kindness.
However, as time passed, the elves living in Dragon City's faith in the goddess would become weaker and weaker. One day, these elves would also become his believers!
This method of education was actually very simple. It was just like doing exercises and raising the national flag every day in school. This sense of ritual would subtly influence everyone, making them become a firm part of their hearts towards their country, their land, and their feudal lord.
" The next step is to carry out basic education, imprint loyalty and faith to the feudal lord in textbooks, and start believing in yourself from a young age.'
Louis thought about the development strategy of the city.
"Clunie, I have another mission for you.”
Louis 'deep voice echoed in Clunie's ears.
He bent down and pretended to listen.
"Next, the city's army will be rebuilt, and that group of orcs will also join. You can get your subordinates to make the orcs thank me for my gift. As for you, you will temporarily be stationed in the army and teach all the soldiers every day to spread my thoughts!!”
