[Great work Ro quarters, Bowden and Johannes invited Roerousan archbishop at all cost!]

Romani naturally beca the people, he's also one of the biggest donors for the church, her ups take note of him In addition to that, Cecil's valor and talent in sacred arts can become a major hindrance in the future

Romani simply couldn't allow hi

[Fuaze

What a scu an enemy out of this Cecil Griffith purely out of jealousy But even scuood idea to let this Cecil Griffith become an archbishop He's after all, one of Lucius' ilk]

Johannes spoke up

[If that Ares Schwarzer gains even more power in the future… it will also affect your effort to succeed in His Holiness After all, he has that th, money, and faht that he would be betrothed to the 『Saintess』?]

Vandeus' face turned bitter upon hearing that last part

Cornelia was known a the conificant… but lately her fa a Royal clan her ups as soreat talent in the sacred arts, also helped ce was that the other aristocrats weren't aware of it as it's not announced extensively

Vandeus once tried to tie down Cornelia before, intending tothe coe of the Arcadia Empire was too precious to pass up

However, no matter how he tried, the answer reive up so easily

However… the suddenly-appearing Ares Schwarzer swooped her away in the rit his teeth in regret

But there is no use crying over spilled milk

In a way, he also found it fortunate that the 『Saintess』 was pushed out to the frontier

[Now… our major concern is the existence of the 『Child of God』 Have we not found him yet?]

The child of God was mentioned in an oracle The upper echelon tried to hide this existence, but the smoke still escaped nonetheless

The rumour spread and now many believed in that oracle

It says… a 『Child of God』 has been born to guide the people in his reign

[It's good if we canmore than a hindrance He must be eliminated at once]

[We've dispatched a lot of people to look for hile trace so far Is the oracle wrong this ti There have been a lot of cases where it's proven right… Moreover, co our faith, which is a foolish thing to do for people like us]

Having said so, Vandeus showed a nasty s Also… sendthere And if push co Ares Schwarzer]

Those present nodded their heads in agreement

He's a man who disliked forced authority

[Fufufufu, but the young lord should be able to handle hihness Cornelisaht the letter to a burning candle, and let the fire burn the paper until there was nothing left of it but ashes

[Well then, should I send Sirius over as well? Right now, Grants is pretty much the safest place in the continent]

Lucius sined the face of his apprentice

[Well, that fellow He'll do just fine Right noe just have to wait The 『time』 will eventually come so better be prepared…]
