Chapter 168 - 090. The Inquisition Of The Seventh Imperial Prince (1/2)
Chapter 168: 090 The Inquisition of the Seventh Iasped out in shock involuntarily before covering her hness”
“No need to apologise Actually, there’s so I wanted to ask you”
“Pardon?”
The Seventh Iaze proved to be a bit too intense for her so she avoidedhis eyes
“What do you feel? I meant the holy undead Do you feel repulsed by it?”
“Repulsed… is it?”
Alice shi+fted her gaze over to the skeleton The undead creature tilted its head this way and that when she stared intently at it
Her eyes sparkled brightly as she began inspecting the skeleton ently ran her hands on the eye sockets of the skull, the neck bones, the spine, the rib cage, the ar”
While aze drifted back to the Seventh I the status of a Saintess spoke of her honest impression
“I feel… no sense of repulsion froht about a deeply satisfied smile on his face “Is that so? Well, I’d like to hear more about your opinion on this hness As long as it’s within my means, I’ll try my best to counsel you”
Alice bowed her head
Her first run-in with the Seventh Imperial Prince was absolutely the worst But ever since then, she ended up owing hiht not be repayable at all
And as such, she wanted to provide hio to that inquisition and…”
Alice raised her head
“…And show this skeleton to the Priests and the nobles? You think I will be able to convince theher at what he said
(TL: In 1st person POV)
I stepped outside the library
Alice’s advice proved to be rather satisfactory, if I say so hness Without a doubt, there is no sense of repulsion No, what I felt was the greatness of Goddess Gaia resonating within me when I observed this holy undead If the other Priests also get to witness this creature, they will feel the same emotion as I have
She spoke as really on her y and the aristocracy can be quite conservative They have this tendency to deny and reject all disharmonious matters that betray their beliefs That’s why…
And she also handily advised ly explain all the hts and conflicts cannot resolve everything If you speak genuinely from your heart, then I believe the y will react positively to you, your highness
As expected of a Saintess blessed with a God’s fragment Her mind worked differently fro full with Gaia’s love and hts, not conflicts, but use words to convince them, was it?
For some reason, I kind of believed her
Too bad, I wasn’t exactly blessed with a gift of gab, so convincing them ords would be a tall order for me
I carefully pondered my options What would be the y ill show up during the inquisition?
Well, it could be…
“Your highness!”
It was then, Harman hurriedly rushed to ripped in his hand towards me
“The date for your inquisition has been set”
I stared at him and asked, “Okay, when is it?”
“Two days froht as well The location will be the imperial palace’s audience chaht They don’t want to give h time to prepare, is that it?”
The inquisition would take place in the palace’s audience chamber, was it?
It see to protect ain, “What about his majesty?”
“He will obviously participate”
“Tell hi your pardon?”
“Oh, and Charlotte”
Charlotte, as next to ive me your orders”
“I want you to withdraw the troops ate of Laurensis, as well as the walls near it No, actually, minimise their nu them to make a move no matter what happens on the day of the inquisition I’ll have to go outside the capital to take care of soave her so on the sidelines, forhness What about the inquisition…”
“Don’t worry, I’ away I will definitely show up to this inquisition However, since they are accusing onna show up as one Let’s see what they have to say about that”
Harman’s eye hness, just what are you trying to…”
“It’s obvious, ain’t it? I’h actions”
Alice told me to not hold back and wholeheartedly convince them
Well, in that case, I should do exactly as she said
…Through a method uniquely mine, that is
(TL: In 3rd person POV)
Two days later, in the capital city of Laurensis
The hours were getting late The pale s while the soldiers carrying lit torches were staying vigilant despite the lateness of the night
However, the Paladins in charge of the city’s front gate and the walls surrounding it couldn’t help but be puzzled by the fact that security seemed much laxer compared to how it usually was
“Hmm, it’s quieter than usual today”
