Chapter 1262: Pretentious Pope

Sam and Aiwa are on the road, she shopped around in the city and changed from her fur clothing, and after some rest and she got rid of all the effects of the antidote and the aphrodisiac. But they didn’t go in the direction of the Holy City immediately, instead, they went deep into the forests in the surroundings.

"Where are we going? We have been roaming around for two days."

"Just wait." That is the only answer Sam has given her during this time. He is looking around for the traces of the beasts and their footprints.

After two days of search, Sam finally found one that he is interested in.

"I am not walking for such a long time. I need to find a beast that is fast enough." Sam finally replied.

He hopped on his one good leg and made his way towards a den on top of a hill. A head popped out of the cave and growled at Sam.

It is a Cougar and when he looked at its fur, he was delightfully surprised. He ran into the cave and after an hour, he finally came back with it as he rode on its back.

This is a large cougar. It looked like a normal cougar in every way and even its name was just that, a cougar. This is one of the beasts that have neutral energy without any elemental influence.

It is fast, agile, patient, and a perfect hunter. Even though many of the qualities of the actual cougar back on the earth are not present in this one, this is a good enough beast for Sam at the moment.

He picked up Aiwa and both of them moved to the Holy Church’s headquarters.

Meanwhile, Sam started thinking about what kind of deal he needed to make with the Holy Church. He needs that potion named holy water in large quantities. Some of the medicine that he has now is of a higher quality but it is not exactly for curing things.

Most of them are for recovering the energy and the ones that are for injuries wouldn’t work on the meridian network. They would mostly stop bleeding for him at best and clear him of physical exhaustion and muscle rejuvenation.

The holy water has pure light elemental energy that works perfectly for his situation. He could try to exchange the potions he has at hand for them, but he believed that they wouldn’t fetch enough.

This Holy water potion is an all-in-one potion for the low-level cultivators, for mortal plane cultivators, this might as well be considered a complete resurrection potion.

While thinking, Sam managed to reach the holy city in an hour at full speed. The cougar is at the peak stage of Astral Plane Initiation. This might even be the second strongest creature in all of the realm or at least on this planet.

If only he had Sky with him. He would have made it a lot faster. But now, he had to travel for half a day at full speed to reach the destination.

After checking into an inn, Sam observed the situation for the next two days, while Aiwa once again went on a spree for shopping.

The Holy Church is actually the same kind of church that was present back on the earth. But instead of worshipping the god almighty and Jesus, the people here worshipped the angels directly.

The Archangel Michael, Gabriel, Azrael, and so on. They worshipped various angels and each angle has different buildings within the church estate.

Sam couldn’t help but feel surprised. All this while, he has been touching various people and gods of different mythologies from back on earth. Many characters were something he was familiar with.Dive into Stories, Embrace Enchantment: N♡vεlB¡n.

The only thing he didn’t get to meet are the Characters from Christian Mythology.

Now, he did that as well.

"You must understand by now, that I don’t need to have this current discussion. I can just take what I want. So, take it when I am giving the respect. I have it in a limited amount and if you stretch it too much, you might not get any of it anymore."

Only after that did the pope stop being pretentious and led Sam inside.

"I want thirty doses of holy water potion."

The pope was dumbfounded. He doesn’t even know what to say about that.

Sam knew he would get rejected with just this, so he already prepared a detailed plan.

"Before you reject me, hear me out properly..."

He went on to go through with the rest of his proposal.

"This is a long-term partnership between us. I will give you the most detailed construction plan in the next three days if you agree with this.

We can sign a soul contract."

Sam then took out a special token and continued.

"This is the exchange token. Someone will come here in a few years with an exact token that matches with this. You can pay my share to that person and they will give you a long-term business deal that could extend for a few more decades."

"Who is that person that will be coming here?"

"Either my subordinate or a friend. Whoever comes with this can get the share. Think of this as my investment here. When the time comes, my organization will be in full contact with you."

"We can only sign the deal after you show the plan. Until then all of this is but an empty talk."

"Sure. But I need a few light elemental inscription masters."

"There will be a residence arranged for you in the church estate, they will be sent there."

"Thank you."

With that, Sam went out and met with Aiwa.

"We are moving into the church estate. We will get out of here after three to four days."

"Into the estate? They just let you in?"

"Of course, they will let me in. It is all business. It is all about profits."

"But I heard that not many people can stay inside the estate."

"Yes, and you just heard that it is all about profits. Don’t be too surprised."
