Jex and Karen left and only Leold, Barbaroto and Isabelle remained in the room. Leold chose to wait until Gilbert came back with information for the time being, but it was still not in his nature.

 He immediately began preparing to go out into the city with the two of them in tow. After finishing his preparations, Leold headed to Sylvia, who was in another room, and told her that he was going out to the city. Sylvia then decided to go with him, and Leold had to wait for a while.

'Shall we go, Mr Leoldo?'

 Sylvia came out of her room, had changed into rough clothes and was smiling in a good mood. The two were invited to the engagement celebration this time, although Leold was too busy with the catastrophe that would happen in the Holy City to remember it. So, although it's a bit of a hassle, it's the perfect opportunity for Sylvia to go on a journey with Leold It's no wonder she's in a good mood.

(Ah, I see. I've been so tense these days that I forgot, but originally I was invited for the engagement celebration, wasn't I? Shall I tell Sylvia? No, but I can't tell Sylvia, who is enjoying herself so much, that a disaster is about to happen in the Holy City. ...... If I could, I would have smashed it first, but I guess that's what happens when you're too proud).

Due to a almost destiny48 game-like course of events , Leold had decided that he himself would never go to the Holy Land because of the events of story. This led to the situation he is in now and delayed the measures he had to take. It is not yet a definite matter, but from the information gathered, the Pope is probably already in the final stages of the ritual.

Now, if Leold had taken measures in advance and stopped the Pope's plans, Leold would not have had to struggle. But it was too late to think about such things now, and Leoldo was tormented by regret.

'What is the matter, Leold?'

 Leold's emotions were unknowingly showing on his face, and Sylvia peeked at him with concern. Unexpectedly, Leold hid his face, but it was too late. Sylvia, with a serious expression on her face at Leordo's unusual appearance, took a step forward.

'Leold-sama. What are you hiding?"

'I'm not hiding anything, Your Highness. Now, why don't we go for a walk in the city?'

'You are not a good liar, Leold-sama. I'm not deceived. Tell me, Leold-sama, what is it that you are hiding?"

"............"

 After all, it was bad that he had just shown it on his face. Leold could not fool around and was silent, but when he saw Sylvia's questioning eyes, he seemed to have given up and decided to talk.

'I understand. Your Highness, let's talk about the situation in detail inside. I'll put up soundproof wards."

'All right. Let's go back inside the room."

 Leold enters Sylvia's room. Once inside the room, Leold put up soundproof wards to prevent any sound from leaking outside.

'Now no one can hear us talking outside.

'Well then, Sir Leold. Can you tell me more about this?"

" Yes, I will tell you what I know."

Leold kept quiet about the destiny 48 game, but talked about the information he had obtained in the Holy Land and the catastrophe that would take place in the Holy Land.

Naturally, everyone was surprised by Leold's outlandish story, but soon Barbaroth, Isabelle and Sylvia believed him.

'I see. Such a thing is .......'

'Do you believe me?"

'I would be surprised, but it's Leold-sama. I have no choice but to believe you. But a long time ago, I would have sniggered at you."

 Leold was speechless when he saw Sylvia smiling mischievously at him. Leold was filled with gratitude that she believed his story, which was nothing more than a guess, without any proof, no matter how much trust he had won over.

.'Now I understand why Master Leold was so worried. Now we have to take action."

'Yes, but we are almost stuck and there is nothing we can do about it. And we can't accuse the Pope because we don't have any proof.

'Yes, that's true. How about using the saint here?"

'How would you do that?'

"By inflaming the people. At least the staff at the orphanage must be wondering where the foster children are. So, if we can get the saint to investigate there, and move to incite the people, ......"

'Ah, so the Pope is getting restless. But will it work so well?"

"The saint Anastasia has a track record of saving many followers, so if she can incite the people, I think it will work. If she join me in this, I think it's safe to say that the people will believe it, regardless of whether it's true or not."

'Your Highness is a princess from another country, so she's not as good as a saint, is she?"

'Oh, have you forgotten? I'm a candidate for sainthood."

'Oh, yes, that reminds me. Then can you make it?"

I"t's a bit fragile, but I'll make up for it by talking about my achievements. Because I have the self-recognised achievement of having protected the royal capital with the sacred boundaries."

 Leold was impressed by Sylvia, who was puffing out her chest with a smug look on her face.
