“What? Move up the time…? Do you mean you will reveal to them that you’re conscious before we can gather more evidence?”
Originally, he planned to come back to consciousness and dispose of Madam Quillian after he gathered all the evidence. But there was an unexpected problem while he was waiting for the evidence – Alice Podoori.
‘She can go out of the Duchy if it goes well.’
The problem lies in what she said yesterday while pretending to attend to him. If he delayed the time to get evidence, Alice would become a priest and leave the Duchy. He didn’t know how much progress their plan had, but he had to prevent her from going to the temple.
Kaillus opened his lips towards the puzzled Tessiri, “… That’s right.”
“But I think it will only take about half a month….”
“No, I need to have the position of the Family Head before that. So we need to hurry up.”
Tessiri didn’t speak anymore and lowered his head as he saw the resolute eyes of Kaillus.
“Yes, Your Excellency.”
“Then you’d better stand up.”
“I would like to say that we should go back to the temple now.”
As Kaillus spoke, Lady Meltain added as she checked her pocket watch.
“Your Excellency, please be careful.”
“We will do our best to get all the evidence.”
David and Tessiri spoke in a serious voice to Kaillus, who was about to leave.
“Don’t worry. I will never fall again.”
Patting the shoulders of his concerned subordinates, Kaillus wore the ring and left the old building with Lady Meltain. And as soon as they left the building, they warped to the quiet alley close to the temple.
“Your Excellency, then I will return to the temple.”
“Wait, Sienna.”
“What is it?”
“Did the Duchess show any particular behavior in the temple over the past few days? Like meeting someone.”
“I’m not sure. I warped as soon as I entered the prayer room…. Oh, I heard something.”
“What is it?”
“I heard that the Duchess has been actively volunteering in the relief center for the poor of the temple these days.”
