   Reader note

   Starting from a small church, Wayne actually accumulated millions of crusaders step by step, and even became a big noble and indirectly controlled the throne? This Western fantasy novel uniquely combines the slow pace of farming with the exhilarating feeling of fighting for hegemony. The protagonist Wayne, as a clergyman, did not take the usual path. While building up the power of the church, he also secretly accumulated the power of the nobility. He even made the little emperor recommended by the elector his illegitimate son. There were endless tricks. The story follows a Western fantasy setting with low martial arts and low demons. There is no blessing from the golden finger of the system. It relies entirely on the protagonist's strategy and skill to lay out the plot step by step. The slow farming in the early stage makes the subsequent rise of power more logical. The "fun man" protagonist is afraid that the world will not be chaotic.
