Chapter 242 - Faris and Faizi inn (1/2)
”Finally out! That damn moles. I should force the young knight to eradicate them all the next time!” [Archbishop]
After a long underground session of tailing the archbishop from a far, Seraph and I have finally infiltrated the country of holy palace. It was a nerve racking experience but I have to admit, a certain OST of a certain spy movies keep on playing inside my head all the while. I hate to admit, but it's actually an exhilarating experience when the OST keep on auto playing in the background of my mind, but not so much now as I need to focus
(I have leave traces of my mana, that way we can escape using the same route should something happen) [Ash]
No disadvantages of being overly cautious I guess. Well, there are one in this case that I could think of, I just have to hope that no talented magician will suddenly inspect the route we taken tenaciously and find out the traces of mana I left, and in turn finding about us. It is highly unlikely but still plausible.
”Start your disguise Ash and let us go to the inn Saint Louis and I mentioned” [Seraph]
”Right” [Ash]
Well, since the OST of that spy movie still playing of my mind, why don't I use that spy appearance for this mission.
”Perfect” [Ash]
”And done” [Seraph]
”Ohh, isn't that the noble appearance you use back during the Motra's attack?” [Ash]
”It sure is” [Seraph]
Along the way
”Did you hear the news?”
”That damn false saint”
”He's inside the holy palace now?”
”Maybe! That poor walking Saint can't even afford a carriage? Such a shame! Using our country resources to escort him pisses me off!”
”To think that he has the nerve to step inside this holy land of ours”
”He's the beastman, the witch and the devil supporter!”
”Shall the holy palace order us to kill him, then my blade will be the one that take his life!”
”Damn false new religion! They only acts to separate us human from each other before the fallen god resurrection!”
”Plus, he's on a good term with the Guardian of children who take good care of the rumour ten heroes”
”The Estel's guardian of children or the Malsia's guardian of children?”
”Both you dimwit!”
”Shit! If that really is the case, Saintess Angela should do something and save those heroes from his clutches!”
Looks likes Saint Louis manage to gain entry into this country (and as expected it becomes a huge and hot topic in an instant among their citizens), and thank goodness Alaric and Linda goes undetected when they enter together with him. According to the plan, Linda will almost always stick with Saint Louis to support him, and Alaric will move according to the situation. I won't be surprise if Alaric was already there inside the inn
”Still, this country sure have a nice view” [Ash]
”That, I won't deny. If it weren't for the situation, I can compose multiple religious songs” [Seraph]
Kiserre have a Vatican like feeling when I first enter the country, and this right here? It even grandeur than the one in Kiserre. And just like any other countries in this world, the castle, or in this case the holy palace which serves as both the royal throne as well as the main church for the old follower religion is also at the centre of the country. Well, unlike the Vatican, the top of the castle seems to be made out of pure gold. Honestly, it's beautiful and yet feel overly excessive at the same time.
