Henry shook his head and said, "I don't understand. With your strength, if you train Flynn, it would obviously more effective than giving him to me. Moreover, what does this selection have to do with Flynn and others?"
"The inheritance of the Recluse Association," Bishop Morvyn said. "It has been thousands of years since the establishment of the Recluse Association. Could the association last for such a long time if there was no inheritance? Every bishop should cultivate his own successor. The achievements of the successor will decide the status of the bishop. After the election, the disciples will gradually become familiar with the role of the bishop and wait to take over. I haven't accepted many disciples. Only Robbin can inherit my mantle. Now he has grown up. He will participate in the election this time. In fact, the election this time is about choosing the future bishop."
Bishop Morvyn cast his eyes on Robbin, paused for a moment, and spoke again, "As for why I don't train him personally, it's very simple, I don't have the heart to do it. If I had, he would not be as weak as he is now. If I could do it, the person you see now would not be bullied by others."
Henry narrowed his eyes and asked, "Do you know what the demon training is?"
"I am very clear about it. It has a 50 percent death rate." Bishop Morvyn nodded. "But I understand that if he doesn't change, he'll die in the end. So I'd rather let him die in his growth than be humiliated by others. It's my fault. In the past 20 years, I've failed to fulfil my duties as a father. But he's still survived Purgatory. I believe that he can survive the demon training."
When Bishop Morvyn said this, he looked at Flynn with great gratification.
Henry also nodded in agreement. Flynn had lived alone in Purgatory for more than a year. Although it sounded simple and he was hidden in the lab, he had been isolated from the world for more than a year. There was no one who could talk to him. He didn't know when he would die. Every day he faced cruel experiments. The mental pressure was more horrible than physical pressure.
Bishop Morvyn looked at Henry again and said, "The election will be in three months. If I can continue to be the bishop of the European branch, I can keep you safe. And, I will help you get rid of Andrew. But if I can't keep this position, whatever we say is just empty talk."
Henry smiled and said, "My lord, you want to use me as a gunman."
"You pulled me into this mess and I will use you as my weapon. We're even, so we don't owe each other anything. Moreover, if you help me, it's also helping yourself, isn't it?"
"Deal." Henry held out his hand to Morvyn.
"I'll leave the rest to you." Bishop Morvyn held Henry's hand.
"If that's the case, there's no need for us to waste any more time here," Henry said. "Three months seem like a long period of time, but for demon training, time is very limited."
"Don't worry. During this period of time, your island will not have any problems. As for China, you can also rest assured. Although Section Nine can't be compared with the four forces, their trump cards are beyond your imagination. We dare not send people to make trouble for your family. You can put aside all your worries." Bishop Morvyn patted his chest and guaranteed to Henry.
