Fernando Manuel de Bustillo Bustamante y Rueda

Fernando Manuel de Bustillo Bustamante y Rueda (1663 – 1719) was the 37th from 1717 until his assassination.
==Biography==
During his tenure as Governor-General, several individuals with pending charges took church asylum in Manila. Bustamante asked Francisco de la Cuesta to surrender the individuals to the authorities or allow them to be taken, but he refused. In response, Bustamante ordered that de la Cuesta and all his monks be rounded up and imprisoned, but this incited many of the Archbishop's supporters, who later stormed the Governor-General's mansion and murdered him in the streets.Assassin's Creed: Forgotten Temple – Episode 51
Following Bustamante's assassination, he was succeeded as Governor-General by de la Cuesta himself. Meanwhile, the Spanish officials in the Philippines began to suspect that the assassination was an elaborate plot by the Dutch East India Company, meant to keep Spain's influence in Southeast Asia in check.
== Behind the scenes ==
Bustamante is never identified by name in Assassin's Creed: Forgotten Temple, instead only ever being referred to as the "preceding Governor-General." This is despite the fact that the events of the story take place in 1725, when served as Governor-General, having succeeded Francisco de la Cuesta, who had been appointed acting Governor-General after Bustamante's assassination.
