As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 11
Advertisement
Sister Millie did not live in the Orthodox Church's St. Servant Cathedral.
Instead, she lived in a small monastery next to it.
There were three nuns there, and they were usually responsible for guiding the prayers and worshippers.
Monn held Little Alma with two big and fat salmon in his hands.
The pedestrians on the road showed surprised looks on their faces when they saw them!
It was mainly because the fish was too big!
The two fish would probably be as tall as Little Alma if they were standing up!
It was already past eight o'clock when the father and daughter arrived at the monastery.
Millie had just woken up and was fetching water from the well outside.
"Aunt Millie!"
Little Alma shouted and ran over excitedly when she saw Millie, who was in a nun's clothes!
"Little Alma!"
Millie was also surprised!
At that time, because Monn had no conditions and experience of taking care of Alma.
He left Alma with her to live.
Moreover, he gave her 15 pounds a week for food expenses!
There was no need for so much if it was only for Little Alma's food expenses!
The 15 pounds was enough for two months of food expenses if it was for an ordinary household!
The money was personal gratitude from Monn to Millie.
The cute and obedient Alma had Millie's favor that year!
Nuns could never get married and have children.
Therefore, for Millie, she almost regarded herself as the little girl's biological mother on the year she raised Alma!
That was the reason why Little Alma often missed Millie.
"Cardinal Monn!"
Millie held Little Alma in her arms and bowed slightly to Monn.
Although she was familiar with Monn, he was still a cardinal after all.
He was much higher than her in terms of rank!
Therefore, Millie was still cautious when facing Monn.

Monn approached the two of them, smiled, and waved his hand.
"I haven't gone to work yet. I'm just Alma's father now!"
"Millie, how are you?"
"Thank you, Cardinal Monn, for your concern. Recently, life in the monastery has been as peaceful as ever. Nothing has changed."
Millie smiled and replied.
"Well... I came here today to ask you to teach Alma how to stew fish soup!"
Monn raised the fish bucket in his hand and smiled embarrassedly.
"You know, I… don't know how to cook!"
Millie smiled kindly, then nodded and said gently.
"Of course, Cardinal Monn. Please pass me the fish!"
"I'll help you carry it in. These two fish are heavy!"
Monn carried the fish bucket into the monastery's kitchen and then placed the two big fish into a pool.
"Cardinal Monn, come over for lunch. This fish is so big. I can make a big meal for you and Alma!"
Millie said with a smile.
Monn nodded. He had tasted Millie's cooking before.
Although it was not the level of a chef, it was still much better than his cooking!
He chatted with Millie for a while in the monastery and accompanied Little Alma to play with the big white goose raised in the monastery.
It was almost nine o'clock.
"I'll leave Alma to you then. I'll come back at noon!"
"Alma, listen to Aunt Millie. Don't be mischievous!"
Monn walked out of the monastery and said goodbye to Millie with a smile. At the same time, he pretended to be stern and pointed at Alma's little head!
"Got it, naggy Father Monn!"
Little Alma hugged Millie's arm and replied with a pout!
Monn slowly walked in the direction of the cathedral after handing Alma to Millie.
He began his day's work.
Generally speaking, there were relatively few dark creatures that dared to wreak havoc near the Orthodox Church.

Therefore, what Monn needed to deal with every day were some routine matters.
Occasionally, he would encounter cases of dark creatures wreaking havoc.
Monn was used to handing them over to the archbishops, bishops, and so on.
Although he had just calculated the money for Little Alma Yesterday, the money for grammar school was not enough.
But, he still had to go to the monastery to have lunch with Alma at noon.
So Monn still did not go out to hunt dark creatures.
Anyway, there was no need to be in a hurry to make money!
Pope Andrew gathered the four cardinals under his command, as well as the deputy commander of the Holy Knights in the morning.
Currently, the three main churches of the Orthodox Church had stationed Holy Knights.
However, the commander of these three Holy Knights was not the commander, but the three deputy commanders!
The commander of the Holy Knights, who had the strength of a Holy Rank, followed the pope all year round, living in the temple thousands of miles away from St. Servant.
When all the cardinals and the deputy commander of the Holy Knights, Philip, arrived.
Pope Andrew announced two important news!
The first thing was that the day before, the body of a werewolf who was advancing to the Holy Rank was discovered more than 50 kilometers northeast of St. Servant, the capital of the Kingdom of Kate!
And the cause of this werewolf's death was another unknown expert who might have the strength of an Advanced Stage Holy Rank!
Andrew guessed that the werewolf clan had sent an expert who was about to advance to the Holy Rank to hide that near to the capital. They must have other motives.
Perhaps, the werewolf clan might make a big move against the Orthodox Church and the capital, St. Servant soon!
The second thing was that the pope's pilgrimage once every three years would be brought forward because of the werewolf matter.
He was expected to arrive at St. Servant's Cathedral within a week!
At that time, the Pope would test the strength of the bishops, archbishops, and cardinals under his command.
He would also review the work of the various bishops in the past three years!
Monn understood immediately.
Wasn't this similar to the chairman of the head office who would visit the various branches at the end of the year?
It was just a deterrence and a favor, even though it was said to be an inspection.
As for the first thing, it made Monn somewhat confused.
According to the pope, the "Mysterious Advanced Stage Holy Rank Expert " he mentioned.
Should be Monn.
But, what the hell was that werewolf that was advancing?
Monn didn't remember killing werewolves!
Suddenly, Monn remembered that after he threw the "Dimensional Slash" at the stone platform.
He seemed to have indeed heard a faint cry.
But at that time, he thought that the cry was far away, so he didn't care.
Now, it seemed that his "Dimensional Slash" had directly penetrated the stone platform.
And then, he killed a werewolf that was about to advance to the Holy Rank that was hiding under the stone platform?
The corner of Monn's mouth twitched a few times, and he silently mourned for that werewolf for three seconds in his heart.
That werewolf's luck was bad!
Monn cleared his throat and suddenly felt like asking.
If he stood out and said, "I killed that werewolf."
Would he be able to obtain a bounty on the dark creatures from the Orthodox Church and the Kingdom of Kate?
The cardinals, who lacked money, couldn't go through all these.
