Even Lescal knew what kind of place Trinidad was. It was a city like the Land of the Dead, where the surviving shamans continued the faltering legacy, and where con artists and criminals pretending to be shamans were hiding.
"Why are you there?"
"The Duke of Piellion visited there a month ago. He was keeping an eye on it because it was something that had never happened before."
Lescal's expression crumpled reflexively when he heard the words Little Duke Piellion. It was a strange thing. Before, even though I knew about their relationship before marriage, he didn't think anything of it, but now he felt like his ears were rotting just hearing the name.
"Was there any business worth keeping an eye on?"
"The purpose of my visit to Trinidad was to hire a shaman, but I was unable to find out the exact purpose. On the way back to the Empire, the Duke of Damanso discovered that he had issued a pass to someone."
"Pass?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. So, I am guessing that they probably brought a shaman to the empire."
"The shaman..."
Tuk.
Lescal put down the pen he had been holding in his hand until then. The Duke of Damanso, who had an affair with the Empress before marriage, personally visited lawless areas such as Trinidad and brought people with him. No matter how he thought about it, this fact only implied one thing.
"Was the Empress involved?"
"I think so. I looked into the Duke's movements in Trinidad, and it is said that he spared no expense in finding the right shaman."

The statement that no money was spared implied many things. Although the Piellion family's wealth was enormous, the adopted son, the Duke, did not yet have the authority to dispose of the family property as he pleased. Duke Piellion, called the old fox, was a man who would gladly replace the Duke if a better person came forward even now. In the end, it was said that the Duke was not the only one looking for a shaman. The Piellion family was behind.
