92. Abyss of the Church
We were invited to the office of Pope Lislet Alcanon.
Sit on the sofa and bring the served tea and confectionery to your mouth.
I thought I'd wait for Colette and the others.
"For now, may I just ask for the report first?About Fortuna and the other guys you met. "
said Lislet.
Whatever the discussion, it would be more efficient to report first.
Therefore, I will report on the "White Girl" we met earlier.
"Well, you know how I called you, and you got in the way.Fortunately, Ariake got away with it because you were out of standard. "
"He called me a 'trump card'.Does your marriage to Alicia have anything to do with it? "
"Well, that's the place!"
She drank tea in a snuff.
"Originally, there were strange rumors about this sacred city.When a beautiful white girl shows up, the person who used to be normal suddenly turns into a killer and changes personality overnight. "
"Looks like a bad horror?"
"Of course! It was a rumor with no roots or leaves! But...."
She plays with her long hair.
"It's been so long since people started seeing that white girl.And, of course, a lot of strange cases began to occur.I thought it was a rumor with no roots or leaves, but I thought it was more than that! "
"Is that why you wanted me to marry Alicia and call me to the Holy City?"
"Yes, and Alicia's report shows you're super capable!I don't have eyes for talented people! "
Hmm, I thought.
I don't think I'm lying.
(I just didn't say everything.)
So intuitively.
There is only the Archbishop who governs the state religion.You can't lie to the wrong person.
Oh, my God, it's a broken bone.After all, he was right to get married under cover and break in.
"The rest about the dragon, but he said the underground sealed artifact, Abyss.What was that about? "
"There are powerful monsters in the basement of this church that were once sealed in combat with dragons.The seal has been weakening a little lately. "
So, how do I help you with that?
"Huh? Ah. I cut myself off like that in front of King Charlotte, but don't worry, this Lislet Arcanon will solve it at the cost of my life!That's an exaggeration!I didn't mean to be on a big boat! "
I see you're not lying.
When I put the teacup I had on the table while secretly sighing,
"I'm sorry, but I need to use the bathroom.Which way should I go? "
"Oh, well, just get out of the room and to the left."
"Okay."
That's what I said. I left Lislet's office.
Well,
"Skill Structure Analysis Started"
I use my skills.
The church headquarters is a complex of various functions.
The first floor is a seminary school, and the upper floor is an administrative facility.
But...
"Strangely, there was no staircase leading to the basement."
Even though it is packed with so many features, for some reason the underground floor has not been created.
The reason for this is:
Well, I guess so.
I finished my skill and went straight through the aisle on the right.
At first glance, there's only a wall and it looks like a dead end.
But...
"Buon"
When I held my hand, I found more space over there.The space is twisted with powerful boundaries.
And beyond that,
"I see. Vertically moving floor (lift)?"
I ride on the floor for nothing. [M]
According to Skill "Structural Analysis", the route leading to the basement had to pass in front of the office of the Archbishop, where no one but the invitee could enter, and had to use this lift to reach it.
"Underground sealed artifact."
That's what the dragon said.
And Pope Lislet Arcanon says he can handle it.
In short, two people who can manage the world, directly or indirectly, express the need to move themselves.
Looks like the core of this case is underground, Abyss. Oh, my God.
I start to slowly descend, sighing again.
To get to the heart of the world.
