As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 158
Advertisement
Monn's footsteps were extremely quick as he walked out of the church.
Ace followed behind him with a doubtful look on her face.
He didn't think that Monn would be able to tolerate this gluttonous elf staying here.
Otherwise, wouldn't Monn's hard-earned money be completely depleted?
Asher also wanted to follow him, but she was stopped by Ace when she was discovered.
"Stay here and take care of Heidi. She seems to have lost a lot of weight."
Asher was stunned for a moment. She looked outside, and then at Heidi in the corner.
The kind-hearted her, stayed.
Seeing this, Ace breathed a sigh of relief.
She did not know what Monn went to do.
But since he did it away from Asher, it meant that he did not want her to know.
Why didn't he just call a Holy Knight over?
That would've been much easier!
She thought to herself.
Ace hurried out.
As soon as she went out, she saw Monn running out of who knows where, with a quill pen.
He was writing on Asher's paper.
Ace took a closer look and saw that there was still some wet ink on it.
And it was written in human language.
There is a young girl elf here who is a guest of the Orthodox Church. I hope you can send someone to bring her back as soon as possible!
Monn bluntly wrote.
He even used an exclamation mark to show the urgency of the matter.
Yes, it was indeed very urgent for Monn...
Ace could not help but laugh when she saw this sentence.
So, the reason he walked out was to add something to the letter.
Monn gave Ace a sidelong glance.
Monn already knew that Ace was there.
After all, Ace didn't hide the sound of her footsteps.

If Monn hadn't smelled Ace's scent, he would have put the letter away earlier.
After the ink was dry, Monn called over the Holy Knights who were standing guard outside.
He said, "Take this letter and send it to the elves in the Elf Forest."
The Holy Knight didn't ask anything and just nodded and said yes.
Then he ran outside.
Seeing this, Monn finally let out a sigh of relief.
He hoped that the elves would quickly send someone to bring this gluttonous elf girl back.
This way, Monn could be completely at ease.
Otherwise, he would have to use up all of his money.
After the matter with Asher was settled, Monn was finally able to relax and prepare to solve the other problems that he had to deal with.
The night feline monster that Jerome mentioned was one thing.
It was also a very urgent matter for the Orthodox Church to recruit people.
The huge Orthodox Church actually had over 20,000 Holy Knights.
There was not even a bishop, let alone various departments.
Establishing a team was the most urgent matter at the moment.
However, this matter could not be rushed. Recruiting people took time.
Monn looked at the current situation of the church at his hands and felt a headache coming on.
He felt that although he had been promoted, he had much more responsibilities than he thought he would have.
He hadn't seen Pope Andrew so busy when he was in Saint Servant.
Of course, it was also possible that it was because he didn't have a subordinate who was as easy-going and efficient as he was.
This made Monn very eager to find real talents.
Otherwise, in addition to things like the night feline monster,
Now he had to do it himself, as Pope of the Orthodox Church.

In his previous life, the big boss of the company just sat back and enjoyed the profits.
He just needed to please people and be liked.
Why did it not work when it came to him?
A Holy Rank powerhouse!
Monn had to find a subordinate as soon as possible!
Then he could relax.
After organizing his thoughts about the development of the Orthodox Church, Monn raised his head and looked at the three women in front of him again.
Ace was still alright.
She was very powerful and was at least of Holy Rank.
She also knew how to cook and occasionally used her own money to cook for him and Alma.
The most important thing was that Monn did not have to spend money!
That was what Monn was most satisfied with.
The only issue was that she acted quite inappropriately to him, which made him feel a little afraid.
But overall, she was okay.
As for the other two people.
One was a weak but very delicate young lady.
The other was a gluttonous elf girl.
These two people were of no use to Monn, and were even a burden.
They made Monn very tired.
Now that he had to deal with the night feline monster,
It was best to leave these two people in the church,
Otherwise, they might get distracted by something they saw on the street and delay the progress of their mission.
Thinking of this, Monn said, "In a while, Ace and I will go investigate the night feline monster incident. The two of you can just stay in the church."
Ace had a tracking spell up her sleeve. As long as she found something that the night feline monster left behind, she would probably be able to find it.
Hearing Monn's arrangements, Ace was delighted.
It seemed that in Monn's heart, she was much more useful than the other two!
As for Heidi and Asher, they were unhappy.
"We're going too!"
Heidi started to resist.
Asher quickly nodded at the side, obviously agreeing with Heidi's words.
Monn said coldly, "We're going to investigate the night feline monster. How will you two help us?"
"Ah, this..."
Heidi and Asher looked at each other,
Their faces were a little awkward.
Monn's words were too straightforward. Heidi and Asher could not even lift their heads up.
Beside them, Ace smiled proudly and raised her head arrogantly.
She looked at Heidi and clenched her fists.
Heidi was so angry that her nose was steaming.
However, she could not refute him,
Because she was only of Black Gold Rank.
There were only very few people in the entire Kingdom of Kate who were of Holy Rank.
Therefore, Ace was a prominent figure in the Kingdom of Kate. Only the first princess of the kingdom could compare with her.
As for Monn...
He was like a monster.
Even the current Pope of the Orthodox Church did not have the strength of Monn at his age.
That was why Monn was favored by so many people.
Because Monn had a high possibility of surpassing the current Pope of True God-Level.
Therefore, almost everyone who could see the situation clearly wanted to befriend Monn.
However, Monn did not care much about it, so they basically did not have much chance.
Except for if they had money.
Mm, very vulgar.
But it was also because of this that almost everyone felt hopeless.
They only had loose change, why would Monn want them?

The Mystifying Diviner
Content warning, there is cursing in the story and there will be some pretty heavy sexual innuendos in it also. I don’t really plan to write gore, but there will be fight scenes. Fair warning to readers, it is a slow start. But hopefully it is enjoyable for you to read. Follow the story of an old chef who was lucky to be selected to become a system host. Well maybe not so lucky, because gaining the system killed him. He will be given a system that might not be the best match for him. While also having to deal with a snarky system monitor who might not be that helpful most of the time. He will also use his new found powers to enjoy life in a new younger body. What you can expect from this story is bad writing, poor grammar, and slow pacing maybe. Food, cooking, comedy, slice of life, fighting, exploring, tournaments, scamming and probably face slapping. I mean who doesn’t like a good face slapping? This is my take on a cultivation story, a lot of Eastern stuff will be crammed into with a mix of Western. This story started as a goal for myself to write 60,000 words in a month for NaNoWriMo. I was able to do it even with taking days off and not writing. I plan to keep writing the story, but at a slightly slower pace. I am aiming for 2-3 chapters a week now with about 4-7k words written. This is only posted on RoyalRoad currently, and I have no plans to change that for now.

Reborn Into My Novel
What if you lived in the world of your own creation? As fate would have it, our dear amateur novelist, Ellie, was reborn into the world of her fantasy novel after falling asleep at her computer. Bewildered as she was, the first person that she met was the protagonist of her novel. To add salt to the wound, it was right before the tragedy that decimated his village as per his backstory. Will Ellie save the village (and herself) to risk changing the fundamentals of her novel? Will she instead let the story run its course and leave everyone in the village to their deaths? Disclaimer: This novel is a work in progress and will be updated hopefully at least once a week. Expect minor mistakes (maybe some typos and punctuation errors) since this is the very first draft. The author suffers from perfectionism and impostor syndrome and therefore attempts to use this as sort of a therapy to break away from perfectionism and self doubt. Basically, the author employs a “I don’t care anymore and screw this trash work” mindset just to get stuff rolling and not set any expectations. Basically, basically, the author just wants to write something and not care about planning and quality and all those nice things about writing a GOOD novel since it’s counterproductive. Kthxbye. ps: Thanks for even reading this trash work pps: You’re not trash for reading this trash work btw ppps: Thanks I love y’all so much Shout out! Check out my friend Sosin’s novel!: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/32568/couple-that-cant-touch Credits Cover made with Canva.

We're still tiny, but if you wave to me I'm always happy to wave back and chat! --------------- In a world where dungeons function as the backbone of national economies, dungeon construction is big business. Wealthy nations spend millions to have the best dungeon builders construct labyrinthine edifices full of the most dangerous traps and planted with the strongest dungeon cores in the hope of luring powerful adventurers in to retrieve the treasures generated deep within. Samuel Tolliver works for his father, who runs the finest construction crew on the continent. It is a good life, one that keeps him close to family and that earns him enough money to pursue his inventions when he has a free moment. He even has something of a talent for fixing things and keeping the various bits of equipment running. It should have been the best job in the world. There's just one problem. Sam hates dungeons and wants to destroy them all some day. And he's got the plan to do it, too. But life has a way of throwing curveballs at you. When a series of disastrous events that he himself set in motion culminates in Sam winding up dead, he thought that was the end of it. Until a voice came to him and offered him a deal, one he simply couldn't refuse. Now Dungeon Man Sam has returned to life as the guardian for a strange new dungeon core, one that will turn everything he knows about the world upside down and force him to set aside his hatred of dungeons. For the sake of himself, his friends, and his family, Sam must construct a dungeon like the world has never seen before and defend it against all comers, be they monstrous or adventurous. If he succeeds, he'll get to see his family again. If he fails, everyone he knows will fall into the grave. And somewhere beyond the range of his knowledge, something ancient and terrible stirs and takes notice. Dungeon Man Sam: When all you have is a hammer, you build. --------------- This Is A Work In Progress: This isn't the final form of Dungeon Man Sam, there's gonna be some typos, and things may change between chapters as I realize "crap, I didn't set that up nearly as well as I thought I did". I'll let you know if anything like that happens, and if you notice anything that you think is worth pointing out, feel free to let me know! Hope you enjoy the story!
