As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 77
Advertisement
Monn's sudden burst of aura completely suppressed the atmosphere of the entire banquet.
Kyle hurriedly retreated. His entire body seemed to have been almost crushed by Monn's aura at some point in time.
On the other hand, the First Prince's face was filled with excitement.
He actually did not retreat at all after finally experiencing Monn's strength.
He even gathered all of his initial stage saint level strength and gritted his teeth as he stood in front of him.
The blood vessels all over his body bulged, and his dark skin became red by the blood.
Fortunately, Monn's Aura was not directed at him. Otherwise, his blood vessels would have all broken and his blood would have spurted out.
Monn gathered all of his aura and stared at Kyle.
Kyle was sweating profusely, and his whole body was creaking as if he could not bear the weight.
He gritted his teeth to hold on for a while. Finally, he couldn't take it anymore, he knelt down and fell to the ground.
His originally slightly handsome face was stuck to the cold ground. His entire face was squeezed and twisted.
Monn sat in his seat and didn't even look at him. He picked up a cup of tea and took a sip calmly.
It was as if the person who had caused the entire banquet to be in this state was not him.
The nobles who were thinking of laughing at him just now also turned pale. They did not expect that this cardinal would suddenly unleash his strength.
Most of all, they did not expect that his strength would be so strong, causing them to break out in cold sweat.
The king who was not far away finally noticed the situation here. As he already had a clue of Monn's strength, he was not surprised. However, his expression still changed slightly when he saw Monn suddenly unleash his strength.

He only felt that someone must have accidentally provoked him.
He was even more afraid that Monn would start a massacre at the banquet if he did not agree with him. In that case, even as the king, it would not be easy to deal with him.
Fortunately, Monn only intimidated Kyle for a moment. This caused the worried king to heave a sigh of relief in his heart. However, his gaze at Kyle flashed with displeasure.
He had emphasized before the banquet started that Cardinal Monn was very strong. However, Kyle did not believe it!
His gaze was low, and his entire body exuded the majesty of a king.
He said in a serious tone, "What's going on?"
Seeing this, Monn could not continue to exude his power. After all, he was here as a guest even though he was invited.
It was not good to not giving face to the host.
But Kyle didn't think so.
He thought that the king's might would make Monn no longer dare to be arrogant.
Raising his pale face, his eyes were bloodshot. He stared fiercely at Monn like an injured beast.
"Your Majesty, this cardinal actually dared to use his strength at your banquet. He really did not put you in his eyes! Please punish him severely!"
Kyle's voice was hoarse, as if he had squeezed his voice out of his throat.
As the eldest son of the Sena family, and even the heir, Kyle had every reason to believe that the king would definitely punish this little cardinal harshly for him!
Even if he was a member of the Aldrich, he could not escape his anger.
He widened his bloodshot eyes, as if he had already seen the miserable appearance of this cardinal. The corners of his mouth could not help but curl into a smug smile.

"Cardinal Monn, I'm really sorry. It's our royal family's fault for not treating you well."
When he heard the king's words, Kyle's smile instantly froze on his face.
He rubbed his ears as if he could not believe it.
He did not expect that when the king heard Kyle's words, not only did he not punish the cardinal, he even apologized to him?
"No! King! You must have made a mistake!" Kyle pointed in Monn's direction and shouted loudly.
Unexpectedly, King Aldrich didn't even look at him and directly ordered, "Guards, drag this impolite guy out."
After saying that, he didn't even look at the Sena family's people's expressions. Instead, he continued to look at Monn.
He invited, "It's about time, General Barton has also arrived at the banquet. Cardinal Monn, why don't you come up for a gathering?"
Monn was about to reject as he didn't want to chat with a bunch of men.
However, at this moment, the king continued, "Oh yes, I haven't introduced to you. This is General Barton. His army is specifically in charge of St Servant. The two of you can have a good chat."
Hearing this, Monn swallowed back his refusal at his lips.
Since he was the person in charge of St. Servant, Monn no longer refused.
His job today was to discuss the attack of the werewolves in St Servant. Initially he was wondering when the king would tell him about it. In the end, he was actually waiting for this general named Barton.
Monn nodded at the king and then walked towards the king's dining table.
When the people around saw that the king not only did not put the blame on the cardinal, but he also treated him with great respect, and he even chased out the eldest son of the Sena family, Kyle, everyone's expressions changed.
At the same time, the status of this Monn rose by several levels.
However, even if he was not valued by the king, the strength that Monn had just displayed was also highly valued by them.
Barton sat on the right hand of the king, and his sharp eyes sized up this calm-looking kid.
He could not help but feel a trace of interest in his heart.
In addition to the king's actions, his interest of protecting the kingdom was even stronger.
Monn slowly walked up the steps and nodded lightly at Barton, who was sizing him up.
Then, he sat opposite the king with a calm expression.
Barton stroked his gray beard and said with great interest, "Young friend, you are really bold!"
Monn said calmly, "I have only solved a little trouble."
"Whoa, this little trouble young friend really uses it well."
Barton said with a smile.
Monn did not dwell on this topic and said straightforwardly, "It's getting late. Let's talk about business."
"Okay," Barton agreed. He was straightforward, too.
Then, on the main seat, Monn and Barton began to discuss in detail.
Finally, when it was getting late and it was almost time for Monn to get off work. The topic finally came to an end.
After the conversation, Monn finally finished his work for the day, so he left.
He stood up and said, "Since the matter has been settled, I won't stay any longer."
As soon as he said that, Monn turned around and was about to leave. This situation made the king slightly stunned, and then he quickly shouted, "Please wait a moment, Cardinal Monn."
