After his second meditation, he seemed to be unable to be anxious any he wanted noas to lie on his soft and cozy bed and hibernate until the end of time
Thus, he walked towards his bed and collapsed into it, then proceeded to stretch and toss himself around in his bed
”Ah, I'll never leave this bed ever again!” Benjaroaned lazily
”Oh, really?” the System questioned
”Not really I hoped to, but life happens, and life is hard The revolution hasn't succeeded, and we shall push on,” Benjahed
The System was speechless for a rave voice, ”Ah, I thought you found the thing hidden under your pillow?”
Benja
”What thing?”
He acknowledged the underlying seriousness in the System's voice, and he too became serious
”You're asking me? Just flip your pillow over and have a look!” If the Syste his eyes as he answered Benjamin
Benjamin did not dawdle and promptly flipped his pillow On the white bedsheet was a white envelope, and it was sealed perfectly, with no traces of being opened previously
When Benja
”Dear God, please don't let me be a jinx”
Benjamin nervously inhaled and lifted the envelope to study it Despite his best hopes, the worst had happened At the back of the white envelope, a nightmarish name was etched on it with a black ball pen
Michelle
Benjaht went dark for a second With a hopeful heart, he scrutinized the envelope for another 2 times to ensure that he did notThe result was still disappointing, as the words was indeed 'Michelle', no doubts

After he contained hie of Michelle's, and Michelle had lost her grasp over his life As long as he had the support of the church, he would have the ability to make the first move
When he was kidnapped, Michelle lost Now, he was free, and he should not be afraid anymore
Regardless of what Michelle wrote in the letter, regardless of what traps awaited, he should face them calmly No matter what, the church would always be behind him, and he could always pass this letter to the church and let theest power on the land, and noas basically his shi+eld
Not that he believed in the church What he believed was that the church would never allow a noble get into trouble under their watch

As Benjaer hesitated and tore the letter open
However, the first line on the first page of the letter shockingly ruined Benjamin's initial plan
It wrote, 'You are very talented in ic”
Benjamin was dumbfounded momentarily, and he realized that he just lost his choice to pass the letter to the church
He saw thebehind this sentence Michelle used one short sentence to cut off Benjamin's possibility to seek help from the church It would be impossible for him to pass this to the Pope now, as if the Pope saw this line, he would iic His death will be swifter than light itself, and he would suffer from the evil witch's intention alone
