As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 40
Advertisement
When he woke up, the dawn was just breaking.
Meng En looked out through the window, with the dense foliage, thick and green, it was very pleasant out there.
The sun was slowly rising from the east, and the sky shows a whitish colour like fish belly.
He looked at the pocket watch beside the pillow. The needle was pointing at six thirty!
"The morning is colorful, like an immortal legend." Meng En stretched his body in satisfaction, then put on his clothes and got out of bed.
He got out of bed and washed up, then took his old fishing rod and went to the bank of the Jia Ya River to fish!
In order not to catch fish so quickly, Meng En did not use the "delicate bait" today.
As a saint, Meng En would never allow himself to be defeated by a group of fish.
Although he did not use the power of a saint, he was still a saint who was revered by countless people.
However...
An hour later, he returned with nothing!
Meng En's mouth violently twitched, He felt as if he had chosen the wrong hobby!
Didn't they say that this season was the easiest to catch salmon?
Why couldn't he catch any when he did not use the "delicate bait"!
"Bah! I'll never come fishing again!"
Meng En carried the empty bucket back home and placed the fishing rod properly.
Hmm... Thinking about it carefully, he had to take revenge. Next time, he had to go to the riverside and use the delicate bait to catch a few big fish.
At seven thirty, Meng En returned home and made breakfast for little Elma with the Old Three Dishes.
After sending her to school, he slowly walked to the church.
When the needle on his pocket watch pointed to nine o'clock, Meng En's figure just happened to step into the church's door.

[ Ding! ]
[ You have successfully clocked in for work. The host's strength has slightly increased! ]
Meng En slightly smiled. Then, he heard waves of orderly shouts.
On the drill ground, Philip had already arranged hundreds of battle formations to run around the drill ground in an orderly fashion!
Battle formations were meant to be used on the battlefield!
On the battlefield, it was always dynamic!
There would not be enemies standing there foolishly, waiting for the battle formations to be orderly formed before charging towards them!
Therefore, the first thing that Philip needed to train was for the knights to maintain their formation in motion!
"Maintain the formation! Don't panic!"
"Light Armored Knights, don't rush too fast! Knights of the Holy Choir, cast support spells on the Heavy Armored Knights!"
"Reserve Knights, run back and forth between Light Armored Knights and Heavy Armored Knights!"
"Formation cannot be messed up!"
Philip stood in the middle of the battlefield with his face full of sternness!
The strength of these knights varied quite a lot.
Although Meng En and he had already adjusted the number of people in most of the battle formations yesterday.
There were still a few battle formations that could not be coordinated!
Philip was a little vexed!
He had no idea what criteria Meng En had used to assign tasks for the knights.
Philip shouted as he supervised the knights, not allowing them to slack off.
On the other hand, he was vexing over the issue of dividing the knights.
Suddenly!
A familiar voice came from behind,
"Philip!"
Philip's expression immediately relaxed, and his eyes revealed a look of joy,
"Cardinal Meng En, you're here!"
Meng En nodded and looked at the knights who were running in formation around him.
He asked,

"Is there anything you need to report to me?"
Philip hurriedly nodded and took out his small notebook,
"I only dismissed them after training until nine thirty last night!"
"There were two knights who woke up late in the morning, but they were injured yesterday!"
"There were a few battle formations that didn't seem to be well coordinated. I don't know how to adjust them!"
"Apart from that, his holiness the Pope just inspected them and he seemed very satisfied."
After Philip finished reporting, he closed his notebook,
"This is it, Cardinal Meng En!"
Meng En nodded.
The performance of these knights was better than he had imagined.
At least, there weren't many who were lazy or disobedient.
Perhaps the massacre yesterday had thoroughly frightened them...
"Continue training. Choose the two who performed the best and let them conduct a battle formation collision drill in the afternoon!"
"Yes!"
...
The boring training was nothing more than a run, collision, and a complicated situation drill!
During these few days of training, Meng En still insisted on working from nine to five.
This matter was soon found out by Pope Andrew.
But he didn't say anything.
The combat strength of the Paladins and the new Iron Blood Knights had been steadily increasing!
In order to let them understand the word 'companion' more deeply.
Meng En ordered the knights in the same battle formation to move in together the next day!
Now, this move was beginning to take effect.
The battle formation collision training began on the third day!
Almost every day, many people were seriously injured during the training and were sent to the main cathedral's infirmary.
Later, a few archbishops who were good at healing spells were directly transferred over by Meng En!
The simple, boring and substantial training lasted for five days.
That afternoon, when Meng En was still on the drill ground supervising the collision training of various battle formations.
An archbishop ran over,
"Cardinal Meng En, Pope Andrew wants you to go to the Holy Church."
"His Holiness Pope has arrived!"

Regarding The Life of A Certain Fallen Noble
.. ...Every paths leads to the same destination... Five Saints, five Kings, seven Sins. One entire plane in agony. ..Chaos must reign... In days long past, several Mage Kings cut a path of destruction everywhere they went. Cruel experimentation, the creation of monstrous creatures, the tearing apart of families and mass genocide...There were few crimes the mad Mage Kings didn't commit. As the Five Saints were summoned in desperation by the races of the world, everything was already at it's darkest hour. When the fighting was over, when the Mage Kings were gone and the Five Saints had returned to their planet of origin, a World Council was erected to keep the the delicate balance from falling apart. Many eras pass. Lyle Greyborne. Current heir to the powerful Greyborne family, the only son of Adarian and Alyssa Greyborne. With the maroon hair of his Greyborne ancestory and the exceedingly rare golden eyes of his mother's Bathory clan, Lyle's talents can only be described as terrifying. These, along with his personal status, make him desired by many. After a young Lyle begins a relationship with one Sophia Alderton, two years pass by. Then a lack of trust coupled with a certain misunderstanding leave the two estranged and left on a sour note. But Lyle even still retains his friendship with Cecelia, Sophia's sister. With Cecelia, his loving sister Iris and Melanie--A young woman who recieved his aid some time ago--Lyle is content to pass the days in peace and idleness. Well, when he's not completing harsh missions from his combat instructor, that is. But this peace is ruined when Lyle's father tells of a mysterious group hell-bent on causing war between the human and demon continents. Later, when his father involves him and his sister in an incident resulting in Iris being put in mortal danger, Lyle makes a decision which could very well cost him not his life... but instead his soul. His status, his loved ones, his dignity as a human being... All these may soon be lost. His life isn't his own. Not anymore. He can only brace himself for the things to come and hope he makes it out with his sanity intact. ******************* EDIT- Author Note: Another thing, the cover photo is not mine. Obviously. It's just a picture I found one day at DeviantArt and thought that the two shown in the picture looked like how I imagined Lyle and another character to be. Simply put, it was convenient in various way and I also loved the art. From my understanding is is from a collaboration between artists Chocobikies and Pinlin. Here is a link to where I found the original http://pinlin.deviantart.com/art/Linked-456655669

(DEMO) Colorless vol.1- Phantamoire Enigmata
This is a demo volume consisting only seven chapters. The sole reason of this publication is to show the world a glimpse of the project. Therefore, the final quality of the product will be lot more refined and polished. This demo might get deleted from RoyalRoad after the actual publication. Synopsis: "Knights wearing their shining armor serving righteous justice riding their glorious horses." We all have heard that story- Heroes who do the right in the purest way without any tampering. But, is it really that easy? Is the world and it's heroes really that pure? After all... fairytale is just a lie. I might be the first author in the world who despises writing. I haven't read any story books or novel in my entire life but children's story book (not even ten of them). So, why do I write? Simple answer- the story. Inexperienced I may be but I believe my project and it's quality. The actual story will be posted somewhere in 2019. The story will be devided into 7/8 volumes and 90 (approx.) chapters. I have been working on this project for 1 year now. It took me 5 months to finalize the concept and plot, 7 months for the story and it's already been 6 months in writing along with 2 times of total revamp.
