Chapter 30: Never Betray His Holiness

I smiled brightly and followed the Archbishop to the promenade near the vineyard yard where the auction was taking place.

Not long ago, I thought I should keep a distance from the temple as much as possible, but it seemed that it would be better to observe while maintaining a moderate relationship than that.

Wouldn't it be possible to find out who Cesare's spy networks are?

I don't know how things will turn out in the future…….

Cesare was no less predictable than Isaac.

Even if things go my way, or if I have to spend the night with Isaac, and the cancellation of my marriage becomes difficult, and therefore the assassination of Ellenia is postponed, or the day comes when Isaac trusts me completely.….

The opponent couldn't let his guard down in front of Cesare.

He might think I hit the back of his head and get angry and do something crazy.

"I heard Cardinal Valentino is going to visit this year's gladiatorial festival."

You keep bringing up topics that I want to forget as much as possible. Phew, I hope he doesn't comes here because of an accident.….

"I was actually expecting you to stop by the temple as soon as you came to Earendil."

"Oh……."

"Of course, I understand that the conditions have not been favorable. The lady wasn't feeling well, and…… I hear you've been through a lot."

The archbishop, who added leisurely, turned to me with a gentle smile. It seems that he has no intention of going into the main topic.

"I didn't feel good. You're not someone who to be treated so lightly here. Lord Omerta was a man I valued too, but I couldn't help but feel angry."

It sounded like a light joke.

But why does it sound like a question?

I smiled brightly at his benevolent smile.

"I've never been treated so lightly. Everyone is very kind to me. Lord Isaac is always too sweet to me."

The archbishop raised one eyebrow slightly, but smiled as if he knew it would happen soon, and continued on.

"You are indeed the angel of the Sistine.  There is a sense of humility with an unparalleled generosity."

"Don't say that. I appreciate your concern."

"No matter how cold-hearted a carnivore may be, it is only natural to melt into the Sistine lark of the nobility. It's a pleasure to see a special bond already building between you two. It's just that…."

Sistine's angel, lark and dog-like nicknames should only be given to my father's mistresses.

I tilted my head trying to keep a smile.

The archbishop, who hesitated, whispered in a low and serious tone.

"You know the sacred principles of confession better than anyone else. If there is anything that is hard to bear, please feel free to visit the temple. The temple of Earendil will not betray His Holiness."

If I didn't know anything, if I didn't know what the end of the world was, I might have accepted it as a pure favor.

It's just that, out of loyalty to the Pope, he's reaching out his hand because it's a pity that I have to endure in this place, where I, the princess of Romagna was being admired of.
