Chapter 14 - The tragedy of the MC and the angel flag Boss of death!(Part 1)

The abbey had several courtyards that were used to relax and for meditation, the courtyard where it was in the fig tree was in the building of the clergy staff, so there would be not so much concern for rumors because the bishops who were on-site simply could lie saying it was because of some exorcism or even a divine instrument

For the clergy, Father Lattanzio's suicide was a shame, after all, suicide was a big taboo for the church, it was worse than getting caught committing sexual acts, which would only lead to the punishment of the lashes with woods or leather whips or down on his knees in some hard and painful grain. Of course, the most serious cases - something involving the royal family - would lead to the cleric's castration, but rarely would the church be so rigid with its employees.

It's been decades since these whipping and castration punishments were not applied. The church's debauchery was well known in the high circles of the nobility and many took advantage of it for its own benefits.

So, the church didn't want rumors about the lightning to be a divine punishment for Father Lattanzio's suicide, because it would stain that abbey and throw mud in the face of the church.

"The crafts are carried out by novices, who learn various things like handling raw wool to make blankets and clothes, harvest eggs and treat the jade peels of the Gouves, constructions of wood products, cooking... Anyway, the novices even showed some talent, whether in preaching the word of the god of light or in exorcism, they were nothing more than slaves to the clergy, of course with the exception of novices with strong family background" thought Emery Darcy as he passed for some of the craft rooms and seeing the novices occupied.

Following Emery Darcy was a novice who acted as his servant, he was a teenager who appeared to be between 14 and 15 years old. On emery's right side was actually one of the servants of each of Grand Duke Leon, who was alarmed to see the lightning falling into the abbey, so went to meet Emery Darcy with a worried look.

The servant of Gran Duque Leon's house is called Louis and he is about 40 years old, he has taken care of Emery since he was a child, so Louis is more like a family member for Emery.

Louis has gray-brown hair, gray-blue eyes, he is quite tall 190 cm and is thin, with narrow shoulders, and has hands with long fingers. He looks like the typical butler who is expected from a house of a wealthy British family, the only difference is that he wasn't wearing the black butler clothes, but simple servant robes, which are baggy trousers and shirts with wide, long sleeves. The shirt is dark green in color and the pants were brown, also wore black cow leather boots.

Emery Darcy's butler dressed like this, because the clergy "forbade" high-ranking servants, such as butlers and counselors, from accompanying the clergy's staff, after all, these officials should refrain from the facilities of the worldly world. However, there was no way to totally deprive the nobles who entered as new clerics to have their servants, after all, how would they dress? Or take a Bathe?

Of course, there were novices, but the novices were only in the abbeys, they could not be taken to the public as servants. Novices with strong purchasing power and a powerful family could bring their private employees as long as wealthy families paid for the lodging of these employees.

Money made the clerics' eyes shine, so everyone was in harmony with that kind of agreement. The wealthy families were relieved that their descendants could take the servants wherever they want and the church was happy with more money.

Finally, the church tacitly allowed the clergy employees to use the novices as servants until their graduation and also to bring a maximum of three servants from their noble homes, of course, could not be very specialized employees.

However, even after novice's form and engagement within the clergy, they still keep their servants, of course, the church closes its eyes to these little things, compared to the atrocious things that the superiors then commit to having an employee or servants was not there a great sin!

Then butler Louis pretended to be a low-ranking servant to be able to accompany his young master inside the church premises, these servants slept in rooms intended for ordinary travelers.

Of course, everything is paid with the money of the wealthy family of novices.

Louis was carrying a small 40x40 cm chest, which contained some things Emery had requested a few hours ago.

Yes, it's been noon since the lightning sprayed the fig tree and that Father Lattanzio's body has already been treated, all priests and novices were coerced into pretending nothing happened and returning to their daily services.

Novices were divided for years, the first year was taught to read and write in the language of the clergy, which was an archaic language, they also learned the common language of the central continent.

The second year was taught about the professions of officials, the most influential family professions were taught about administration and accounting.

The third-year students are getting involved with the practices of the crafts and taking lessons on the divine book.

In the fourth to the fifth year, classes on the knowledge of exorcism begin battles between demons and how to use their powers for healing and battle. The amount of sacred energy each has is tested, mana and the energy of nature are also tested. Physical strength is trained at that time too, they will take sword lessons or how to handle a large, heavy shield well.

In the sixth year, novices are sent on several missions by the church until they reach a certain number of achievements so they are sent to the main headquarters of each country and finally be recognized as priests by the church.

The basic initial education of each novice begins between 12 and 15 years of age, depending on the talent it is possible to skip the classes. For example, the original Emery already knew how to read and write and also had eased with the archaic language of the church, since he had learned magic and spells from Duke Leon's Family that uses the magic language of the Aurore Empire.

The magic language of the Aurore Empire was created at the same time that the Church of the Rising Sun was developing, so there are many similarities in linguistic construction. Soon Emery was soon transferred to the fourth year at the age of 15.

The original Emery Darcy also had a lot of knowledge about administration and economics, as Duke Leon taught his son so he could compete for the duke's title of heir.

In other words, the original Emery was a person who had many opportunities in life and had a powerful family and literate as support. Thus, he sailed gently during his time as a novice and student at Joseph Abbey, which is in Star City in the Empire of Aurora.

The MC of this novel was at the end of the Third-year of a novice, in addition to the time he stayed at the religious boarding school until he reached the age of being a novice, that is, he has been within the church domains for almost six years.

Third-year novices showing no use in regular crafts were relegated to work washing dishes or cleaning the abbey. The MC had no "talent" for the officio skills and his data had not yet arrived from the church of dawn's kingdom capital. Soon, the MC was in charge of washing the dishes and preparing some food for higher-level clerics.

Anyway, Emery Darcy was looking for the MC of the story, as he was supposed to be in the kitchen after cleaning his dead best friend's room. At this point, the MC should be receiving a complaint from the priest in charge of the kitchen, who will downgrade the MC to be just an outside cleaner.

The MC has demoted thanks to the serious injury that broke his fingers from his right hand, which was inflicted by the villain who had abused him. The villain maliciously broke his hand and kicked MC's ribs after learning of Father Lattanzio's death, as if he were "sharing" his happiness.
