After returning to the capital, Leolde went to the king and asked him if he could postpone his trip to the Holy Sea until his work was finished.
"Hmmm, ....... I will try to talk with him."
"Thank you very much.
He thought he could now concentrate on work, but a short time after he returned to Ze'at, he received a messenger from the king. When Leolde asked what happened he was told that a priest wanted to see him. He could have refused, but he didn't want to give the kingdom a problems . Leolde sighed and decided to return to the capital with the messenger.
Leolde was taken by the messenger to see the priest. At the place he was led to, there was the king, the vizier, and his bodyguard Richto . In front of them, there was a priest wearing vestments and a holy knight with in blue and white armor, who was the priest's bodyguard.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Count Harvest. I am Alois, the priest in charge of the Algabane Kingdom branch. Please make my acquaintance.
LeoLde inwardly poisoned the priest who called himself Alois, who smiled in a way that made people feel at ease.
(That's a weird smile. I'm sure he's up to something!)
That's a harsh thing to say to someone you've never met before.
"It's nice to meet you too, MrAlois. So, what do you want from me?
"Yes. I think His Majesty the King has already told you about it, but I was told that the Leolde Harvest and the Fourth Princess are engaged to be married, and I was hoping that we could celebrate it in my country.
"Hahaha, I'm very happy to hear that, but I'm a very busy man, and I can't leave my estate so easily."
"Oh, that's a problem. His eminence, the Pope, has insisted on it."
(That's a guy I can't refuse! In addition, the Pope himself ...... Oh, by the way, Sylvia was a candidate for being saint ....... I'm sure they wanna capture her ! But I don't want to go there because it looks suspicious to me!
Showing a pretense of thinking for a while, LeoLde explained the situation to Alois.
"But I don't want to go ther. I have some work to do at the estate, and I can't leave until I Will done with that .
"I see. Then I understand. How long it would take ?
"About a month and a half."
"Hmm, a month is a bit long."
"Well, how about three weeks?"
"Three weeks, ....... Can't you make it shorter?"
"Yes, ....... How about two weeks?"
"I'm sure his eminence would be willing to wait that long.
So Leolde was given two weeks. After some small talk, Alois and the group returned, and Leorle stayed behind to talk with the king and the king's people about the future.
"I'm glad you were able to convince them. . The discussion you just had could have turned into a diplomatic issue.
"Well, it was an invitation from His Holiness the Pope. However, we have our own position, and I think it's only natural that they should come to us.
"This is true, but the influence of the Holy Church cannot be ignored. In addition to the fact that there are many believers in this kingdom, more than anything else, the Holy Church dispatches a lot of recovery magic users who can cure illness and injury.
"That's the problem, isn't it?
"Hmm. And there's a disease going around the region right now. We can't afford to have the healers brought back now.
"Oh, I see. ......
Leolde knew that there was a plague going around, but he could not do anything about it because there was no solution. In addition to that, Leolde was even more helpless because he was far away from Ze'at.
(But isn't this plague at this time the fault of the ...... Holy Church?
When the timing is this good, he still have suspicions. However, there was no evidence that it was the Holy Sea . So, he can't sue them.
(We'll get paid for match-pumping, and we'll get a better bargaining position! Hahaha! I guess that's how it works._
(Should I ask Hungry Wolf Fang and Zephyr to investigate? But I don't have enough time. I've been given two weeks, but it's only enough to plan countermeasures for events that might happen in the Holy Sea . ......)
Leolde parted with king and went back to Ze'at. The first thing he does when he returns to Zeat is to memorise the events that will take place in the Holy Sea .
The first thing he remembered was the events that would take place in the Holy Sea . To be precise, it is a kind of residue of the evil god, not the main body. However, it takes over the Pope's body and goes on a rampage. And it's strong. But in the end, It was defeated by the saint and Sieg who had reached awe\awakened to the next stage . (Well, if this is the case, they don't need me. ......)
If this were a game there would be no need for Leolde to be But this is reality, and Leolde has been invited to the Holy See by the Pope to celebration. He could not refuse the invitation, so he had to go to the Holy See, but he could buy some time.
How to use that time to plan countermeasures will be important. At any rate, if it is the same as in destiny 48, the only ones who can defeat the Pope who has been taken over by the the evil gods are the saint and Sieg.
