Chapter 865 Religious Big Shot, Terrifyingly So [Bonus Chapter for Patron Flower╮Leaf]
Joshua saw that Chi Feichei didn't respond and wasn't in a hurry. He knew that as long as the Eyes didn't disappear, his Lord was watching and listening. He continued to gaze at the Eyes in the Sky, seriously explaining the Situation, "When Grace Aihara was three years old, her Parents passed away. Her Uncle in the Mafia took her to America. From the age of six, she was immersed in fame and fortune. She lost her Self and yearned for the Life of the Mafia. Until a year ago, her Uncle unfortunately passed away in a struggle. Losing her umbrella of Protection, she also became a victim of the struggle. The Mafia abandoned her and her Uncle, leaving her alone to bring her Uncle's Corpse back Home. When I found Grace Aihara, she was entangled by the Mafia and pursuers, falling into endless Distress and Danger. The Situation was very Complex. More than one party was searching for a Secret that didn't exist in her Uncle's hands at all. I felt that I should help her and offer Salvation to this intelligent and determined Child."
Chi Feichei spoke out, "Solved?"
Grace Aihara was startled in her Heart. While lowering her Head, she secretly frowned slightly.
She had always thought Joshua was a cult Leader.
Yes, just like those Churches hiding in the Dark Place, unable to see the light of day. The Leader says things that seem very reasonable to Brainwashing the Believer. That Leader might be a liar who doesn't believe in their own set of ideas at all, or they might also deeply believe in that set of ideas themselves, and Joshua was the latter.
But now it seemed, there was someone behind Joshua?
"Yes, my Lord," Joshua said sincerely, "Charles, who once caused Grace Aihara Troublesome Matters, is now also my Child."
Chi Feichei: "..."
He Understood. The Relationship between Joshua and Grace Aihara should be 'Godfather and Goddaughter' in Western religions, except that the religious sect they believed in was founded by Joshua.
Joshua's sudden Pace of having both Children made him feel a bit familiar...
Next, Joshua talked about that 'Charles' and the general course of the whole Matter.
Grace Aihara's Uncle was a Key Member of the Mafia, and Charles was a Member of the American Brotherhood. When Grace Aihara's Uncle was powerful, he had Offend People badly.
Grace's Uncle didn't care before, thinking that even if he died, his Accomplices would take care of his Little Lori, but Grace's Uncle miscalculated. Something went wrong within the Mafia. He who had risked his Life for the Mafia was pushed onto a fabricated Criminal Charge. As soon as he died, the Little Lori's Day became difficult.
Originally a glamorous Mafia Princess, a dazzling Child Star, she was suddenly interrogated and Threat by her own People. With great difficulty, the Internal Mafia let her go and allowed her to bring her Uncle's Ashes back to her Village. Afterwards, the People her Uncle had Offend Previously began to pursue her for Retaliation.
Charles was not the only one, but he had many Subordinates, was the most Dangerous, the most Troublesome, and had the deepest Hatred for Grace's Uncle.
The Mafia People were not so ruthless. Although there was Internal Controversy about whether Grace's Uncle had Betrayal, some People also entered Britain to provide Protection to Grace. They even proposed to let Grace return and join the Mafia, and continue to be a Celebrity.
However, Grace had experienced the Threat of the Mafia, and her Heart was already repulsed by the Mafia. She did not agree to Follow the Mafia Member back to America.
The Mafia didn't take it too seriously. The People sent to protect Grace were few, and they were all defeated by Charles in a short time.
Charles's Identity in the Brotherhood was also unusual. Chasing and bullying the Little Lori was just the smallest Retaliation. He himself didn't even come to Britain, and was still in America liquidating Grace's Uncle's Iron Rod.
The Mafia People were held back, and Grace completely lost support. Even if Charles only found a few small fries to bully her, it was not something she could resist. Her Day was really difficult.
Chi Feichei had seen many Matters like this in his Previous Life.
Doing Black work Offend People easily. Once you die or collapse, the People around you will be in Troublesome Matters.
If you encounter an Organization like the Mafia, they can still protect you out of sentimentality. If you encounter those who are not sentimental, it is Possible that they will ignore you or even join the large Team of pursuers.
Therefore, he Never believed in 'entrustment'. People All leave, and Tea turns cold. Confirming that the People around you have the Ability to protect themselves after you die is the only Channel.
"When I found Grace Aihara, her and her Uncle's Savings over the years had already been emptied by Charles's People. She was also caught in a Trap, nominally owing a sum of Money. I helped her financially and Decided to help her. After listening to her Say the entire process, I Discovery that Matters were Wrong. From the beginning of her Uncle being wronged, there were Signs of someone pushing everything in the Dark Place. It is also Possible that her Uncle's Death was Originally the bitter fruit of a failed struggle," Joshua said with a serious Face. "I think the most Possible Person to push all of this is Charles. His Hatred for Grace's Uncle is Sufficient for him to Plan and destroy everything of Grace's Uncle. This is a Person who needs Salvation even more than Grace."
Chi Feichei Thought of what he had Said to Joshua, that the Request for 'Believer' was to prefer quality over quantity of Elites, and Understood Joshua's Idea—Charles was a Talent, and Talents all needed Salvation.
This Idea was very excellent.
After that, Joshua 'used a little trick', faked Signs that Grace's Uncle was still alive, and made Charles Suspicion, luring Charles to Britain, and then used those two Crows to collect Intelligence...
"I asked Holy Bird to help me enlighten him, and Holy Bird allowed me to grasp his Movement, allowing me to glimpse the Pain, Joy, and Pride in the depths of his Mind. With my tireless and tireless Effort, he finally Repentance for his Sin," Joshua said with some Sigh. "I told him that my Lord is tolerant of all Evil and can let him bathe in the Glory of the Lord and Break Away from Distress."
Chi Feichei was Silence for two seconds, "Joshua, you are very excellent."
Very good at Speaking.
Joshua was overjoyed and excited in his Heart, but soon his Eyes turned red, and his Gaze was somewhat sad and grateful, "It is the Lord who has given the Mind of People like me who have been Exile a Haven. I am just doing my best to repay the Lord's Favor."
Haven?
Grace Aihara's Heart was touched. She turned her Head and looked at the sincere Emotion in Joshua's Eyes.
That Affection was very sincere and also very Heart-wrenching, reminding her of the Moment of despair and being Saved. Her Gaze gradually softened and became firm.
She remembered the Day Joshua found her. This Old Person, dressed neatly and cleanly, with a peaceful and Kind Face, told her that he was willing to help her.
She had experienced so many changes, and was no longer so naive and simple. She didn't believe that someone would help her for no Reason. She Asked Joshua Why, and Joshua Said: 'The Lord told me to find you and help you'.
She Thought Joshua was a Father (Priest) of some Church. In fact, he was indeed, but not those Churches she was familiar with.
Joshua really helped her. This Old Man was intelligent and wise, solving all the Troublesome Matters that troubled her, and told her that he was willing to accept her, tolerate her, and take care of her in the Afterwards.
She Understood the Feeling of being Exile and having a Haven again.
She admired this intelligent, Grace, and methodical Old Person, so she listened to Joshua and willingly joined Joshua's 'Holy Church'—Natural Holy Church—that she had Never heard of.
She didn't believe in Supernatural Beings, but was willing to accommodate Joshua.
She was a little unhappy when she Just Now Discovery that there was someone behind Joshua.
She Suspicion that Joshua was being fooled, but now she Understood. Perhaps that Person was the Same to Joshua as Joshua was to her.
She suddenly began to feel guilty for her Suspicion and wavering Just Now.
Since she had joined the Holy Church and Decided to make Joshua Happy, then she Should, like Joshua, unreservedly and sincerely believe in it, No Matter what Joshua believed in.
Chi Feichei Discovery that Grace Aihara's Line of Sight gazing at his Eyes gradually became firm and respectful. He couldn't help but Silence again for two seconds, "Joshua, there is no need to forget Pain, but there is also no need to indulge in the Past. It's getting late, you should Rest first."
Even he couldn't help but be profound for once.
Religious Big Shot, Terrifyingly So.
Joshua lowered his Head, "Joshua follows the Lord's Instruction."
Grace Aihara followed suit, "Grace follows the Lord's Instruction."
In the Sky, the Black Lines in the Purple Eyes subsided and soon dissipated.
Joshua waited for a while before raising his Head, Get Up, and Reach Out to gently pat Grace Aihara's Head, who also Get Up, "Grace, I know that you had doubts about the Lord Before. Everything you did was to make me Happy."
Grace Aihara panicked, "Father..."
"It's okay, the Lord is tolerant of you, and so am I," Joshua's Expression was still peaceful and Kind, and he Said unhurriedly, "I can see it, and the Lord must have seen it, But he didn't blame you. This is the Lord's tolerance. I was not Lying. It was the Lord who told me to find you and offer you Salvation."
Grace Aihara relaxed, "You Said Before that the Lord does not offer Salvation to just anyone. Why me?"
"The Lord is not like other Gods who Say they love everyone, but have Never really seen the world. He only offers Salvation to the People he values, But he is also tolerant of the existence of other Faiths. It is casual, but also Real Value," Joshua's Tone softened, "Grace, you are a Child chosen by the Lord. Charles is a Child chosen by me on behalf of the Lord."
Grace Aihara felt a little Pride in her Heart for no Reason, and was even more guilty about her wavering Before, "Then... can I make up for my Suspicion and wavering Before?"
"Go Rest first, this is the Lord's Instruction," Joshua's Footstep to Turn Around to the Room paused, "Tomorrow, study the Doctrine of the Church with me, Grace. You must be serious and focused."
"I Understood, I will."
While Joshua was frantically Brainwashing, Chi Feichei closed the unnamed Metaphysics Communicator, closed his Eyes, Break Away from Joshua's Speech Pattern and Pace of Speaking, and Look Towards the Rear of the Cliff, "Granny A-Fu, when are you going to hide?"
Hassashi, who was Just about to remind him: "..."
(*￣m￣)
Master doesn't give it a Performance Opportunity again.
Chi Feichei's Words alarmed the three Golden Eagle.
Big Golden Eagle was still Wondering why Chi Feichei was talking to himself. After recovering, it flapped its Wings and flew towards the Cliff, "Huh? Someone's here..."
"Where? Who's here?"
Second Eagle followed, and Little Lori naturally followed.
Granny A-Fu was Just Standing behind the Cliff watching the harmonious and leisurely Scene for a while, watching the blue Sky for a while, feeling Sigh in her Heart for a while, and feeling melancholy for a while. Suddenly, she heard Chi Feichei Call her and was startled. When she looked up again, she Discovery that three Golden Eagle were aggressively Surround her. Her Expression changed from surprise and bewilderment to Complex.
The Villager of Fifteen Night Village and Golden Eagle, Golden Eagle's Parents, and Golden Eagle Ancestors have lived together for generations. The two sides can live in harmony. Their Priest lineage can even summon Golden Eagle and interact with Golden Eagle, but they are not as casual and harmonious as that Young Man in Black Clothes.
Now that Young Man's Sentence made all three Golden Eagle run over to block her way, clearly intending to make her come out...
Why are Golden Eagle so close to that Young Man?
Is the Affection they have inherited from their Ancestors for generations not as good as a Person who has been in the Village for less than two Days?
It's simply incomprehensible to the Old Person.
