I am the Pope in the Western Fantasy World

Chapter 141 Pirate Treasure

"How to solve it?" Simona asked curiously.

"Don't get involved in this, Simona. You should go and prepare dinner for everyone." Ernest said, touching his sister's soft hair.

Assassinating the princess of a kingdom is no small matter.

"But..." Simona wanted to say something, but she saw Ernest's sharp eyes. She bit her lower lip and said, "Okay, what do you want to eat tonight?"

"I'm not picky. Give me a few sandwiches." Eli said first. "Of course, it would be even better if you prepare some grilled lamb chops."

"I'm fine with anything." Phil Gray smiled at Simona. There were indeed some things they couldn't let her know.

"Okay, wait a moment. I'll go to the kitchen and prepare it for you with the cook." Simona hesitated, looked back at her brother, then picked up her skirt and left.

"Your Majesty, do you have any solution?" Ernest asked.

"I just said that I met Frank, the owner of the Resting House, in the Abyss of the Dead. In fact, I can summon him to the human world now. Ghosts have the ability to become invisible, and he is at the level of a commander of the undead, which is equivalent to our divinely-revelated-level followers. As long as there are no people from the Cult of the Dawn in the palace, he should be able to assassinate the princess." Phil Gray stated his plan, but in fact he was not sure whether there were any other means of protection in the palace. Although the princess was an ordinary person and not a divinely-revelated one, it was also unknown whether she had any high-level divinely-revelated ones under her command.

He also expressed his concerns.

"Don't worry, the princess is no longer in the palace." Ernest clenched the sword in his hand with a sneer on his face. "My father told me this afternoon that the king thought Princess Sani had lost his face and damaged the reputation of the royal family, and the queen always hated her, so they let her leave the palace to recuperate. She left early this morning and her destination is a manor outside the city. She should have settled down by now."

"That's really great!" This is a godsend. There may be a lot of defensive forces in the palace, but outside the city, how many gods' favored people can Princess Sani, who is hated by the king, bring with her?

"To be on the safe side, I'd better give the assassination mission to Mr. Frank." Phil Gray smiled. It was time to summon him out again. He didn't summon him in the past few days because he was too busy. Of course, he also wanted to control him and let him understand that only by helping himself could he get a chance to come to the world.

I think he will be happy to help me this time.

"He only knows that I am the one favored by the God of Death and come from a family of the Church of Destiny. We can't reveal other information to him. He was a member of the Light of Wisdom when he was alive. I always feel that he is not that simple." Phil Gray once again reminded his two companions.

"Okay." Eli and Ernest nodded.

Phil Gray stretched out his hand, and a black magic circle appeared in his palm again. He whispered, "My fellow undead, obey my call - Frank!"

As the magic circle expanded, a door appeared out of thin air, followed by a ghostly old man, his eyes full of resentment.

"Didn't I ask you to summon me earlier? I even brought you a gift from the resting house."

Phil Gray smiled, "I'm sorry, Mr. Frank, I've been too busy these days, rushing to the Western Continent. Besides, there's nothing fun to do on that island. Now that we're in the Western Continent, you can enjoy the scenery to your heart's content."

"Is this the Western Continent?" Frank glanced around the living room and saw the lawn and fence outside through the carved frosted glass.

"Yes, we will pass through many cities of the church and then reach the East Continent from the West Continent. Along the way, you will definitely see enough of the human world."

After Phil Gray finished speaking, Frank's expression eased a little, "Well, look, I brought you something."

A pair of sky blue earrings appeared on his hands. The earrings were diamond-shaped with diamonds in the middle.

"For me?" Phil Gray couldn't understand why he gave him earrings, as they were obviously women's earrings.

"When I met Edith, the female pirate, that day, I remembered that I had a pair of earrings collected hundreds of years ago in my resting place. Its owner was once a female pirate who dominated the South China Sea and was the uncrowned king of the sea at that time. She also left behind a treasure legend. Somewhere on the seabed of the South China Sea, there is an underwater city that she built with all her fortune. The key is the pair of earrings. It is said that there are many precious treasures in the underwater city." Frank told the story behind the pair of earrings.

Treasure key? It sounds great. Phil Gray thinks he can go treasure hunting if he has the chance. Even if he doesn't have time, he can give it to Edith and Patrick as their wedding gift.

"Thank you, Mr. Frank, I like this gift very much. If there are more interesting things, I would be happy to accept them." Phil Gray took the earrings and expressed his gratitude.

"Then you have to summon me out more often. I have plenty of things like this resting house." Frank had a proud look on his face. For a collector, he would be happy if others liked his collections, even though this guy seemed a little "greedy".

"By the way, Mr. Frank, we need your help so that we can travel more freely in the Western Continent and the Eastern Continent in the future." Phil Gray said tactfully.

"What's the deal?"

"We are now in the capital of the Puna Kingdom. Princess Suni of this kingdom is our mortal enemy. She has been sending people to hunt us down. If we don't get rid of her, there will be batches of annoying people following us and causing trouble for us. Then we won't be able to enjoy the scenery along the way." Phil Gray frowned and spoke in a rhythmic voice with resentment in his tone.

"So, you want me to kill her?" Frank asked with a squint.

"Yes, she is very vigilant. We will definitely be discovered if we go there. And you are a ghost. You can become invisible and kill her without her noticing." Phil Gray said.

Frank stared at him, his old face wrinkled. "You want me to kill someone? You summoned me here to do some work."

"So that our future journey will be more pleasant and so that you can better appreciate the scenery of the world." Phil Gray smiled and said sincerely.

"Okay, I'll promise you this once, but I don't know where this princess you're talking about is." Frank agreed reluctantly.

"Eli and I will go with you," said Phil Gray.

Ernest tensed, "What about me? I have to protect you."

"Oh? Who is this again?" Frank looked at Ernest.

"He is a good friend of mine and will travel with us." Phil Gray said, and patted Ernest again. "If something happens to the princess, the king will definitely suspect you. Your father and sister still have to live in the Kingdom of Pune, and you can't offend him again. So tonight you take the Duke of Surrey to a public place to prove your alibi. This way, even if the king has doubts, he won't dare to attack you openly."

"But..." He gripped his sword tightly, feeling really worried.

"Oh, the one who assassinated the princess is an old man like me. They will definitely be keeping watch outside by then. What are you worried about!" Frank rolled his eyes.

Ernest pondered for a while and could only nod, "Okay, but you must be careful." He looked out the window again, "Tonight, a mermaid opera house is opening and many nobles are invited to attend. I will take my father and Simona to watch it later."

"That would be perfect."

They smiled at each other, only Frank looked bored. Being young was good. Friendship, courage and challenges were all far away from them.
