Chapter 474 The Bishops Plan (2/2)
Here it was The true reason why the first bishop had personally come to visit one of his faction's eneht which no one would take seriously Were his true intentions He wanted Daniel to kill Alesia
Both Daniel and Edmund realized what the intentions of the first bishop were, and in their hearts, they felt a strong anger surge through their bodies and invade their minds, but thanks to Daniel's ht away But, unfortunately, that was not the case for Edmund, who looked at Yuto hat looked like the intention to start a fight
If that happened in front of anybody else, nothing would have co was a spiritual cultivator, and a high ranking one at that The first bishop immediately noticed the fluctuation in the spirits of both Daniel and Ed at Edmund from the corner of his eye, he turned to look at Daniel with a fair aave Ed back at Yuto, and with an eize for his bad behaviour He probably thought that you wanted us to do your dirty work by killing the spiritual eet serious”
As soon as Daniel finished speaking, the suspicion disappeared from Yuto's mind Instead, he suddenly started to feel more at ease The first obstacle had been crossed, and Daniel did not appear to be coainst the idea, so in his mind, there was hope to convince him
Yet, he needed to maintain appearances ”I would never do that!” He said with evident indignation
”Once again, our apologies” Said Daniel with a faint nod
After Daniel's apology Yuto pretended to vent his anger with a few deep breaths, then sat back down on his seat, and hat felt like exasperation, he said, ”I will adhtmare so far By tradition, she is kept on the opposite side of Anima, and the two need to ine howuntil that ine But ould anyone hurt the future bride of the most powerful entity in our universe?” asked Daniel with curiosity He knew that Yuto was trying to rope hi Alesia, and in order not to appear suspicious, he needed to show interest towards anything that could be gained fro about the odd nature of the young woman, the envoy of the soul clan has started to show a particular interest in her” Said Yuto with feigned worry
Daniel did not leave the bishop waiting, and after straightening his back, asked with an even deeper interest, ”But ould they want her dead?”
”For her body The soul clan cultivates so that they call soul, which to us is a power similar to a mixture between consciousness and spiritual essence One of their main abilities is possession, and I fear that so but entice the envoy of the soul clan I cannot ie of the woman's body” Responded Yuto with a tone filled orry
For the following fewdifferent matters, but Daniel never entirely dropped Alesia's topic Every few exchanges he would pretend to care about the possible rewards that the soul clan could offer, whether the arts of the soul clan could be taught to high immortals like himself, or whether the spiritual emperor would accept that his bride-to-be would be offered to the envoy The bishop would respond to each of these questions by keeping a vague tone, pretending that the entiresure that nothing like happened in the next two days, would be a real headache
After more than twenty minutes, when Daniel appeared to be uest, Yuto decided to leave
Daniel decided to accompany the bishop to the door, and when they reached it, the latter covered his head, and before leaving, he said, ”I hope that e have discussed will remain between us”
”Of course” Said Daniel with a sole your acquaintance, Outcast and in case on't see each other again, goodbye” Said the bishop before walking out in the rain, and disappearing behind one of the residences built right next to Daniel's
After closing the door, Daniel walked back into thefor hie ”We have to kill thehter, and leave” He said while stoe build in Edmund's mind, so he approached him, and placed his hands onto his shoulders ”We can't You have felt it The source of all spiritual essence If we start a fight here we'll die, and no one will be left to save your daughter We have to follow the plan” He said while using his mental fortitude to try and calm Edmund's spirit
Ed words were all that was needed for hio back to his calm and collected state of mind He then decided to ask what their next ht before he could speak, Daniel took a black set of clothes out of his spatial ring, and began to put it on
”What are you doing?” asked Edmund with confusion
Daniel did not stop, and while putting the black top on, he said, ”Do you think we are the only one he tried to convince? We are lucky if ere the last one he asked to We need to protect Alesia until the wedding date There is no other option”
What Daniel had said was right Before co to thee of st them, were some of the other children of Iehosesystems, Daniel could not predict
