Let's Manage The Tower

(22) Acquisition

After talking to Floria, Sylvia also had a conversation.

The information Dana had wasn't a big deal, but it seemed to be of interest to both of us, and it was quite a pleasant time.

The story itself was a story of no other love, so I was wondering how much of a life they had left behind, but of course I wouldn't say such a thing.

I honestly told him everything Dana knew.

After spending a while like that, the outside of the room suddenly became noisy.

The three of them wondered what had happened, but soon the door opened and a man came in.

I came in without knocking, so I know it's an emergency.

"What's wrong?

"I'm sorry. I'm a visitor, but with the momentum I'm about to push..."

And I tried to explain, pushing the man against the arrow, and I saw someone's hand.

"Out of the way! I'm in the way."

That's how I came into the room with one of the priests in the priest's clothes.

The priest suddenly stepped into the room and when he saw Dana, he snorted.

Then, following the priest, a few more priests enter the narrow room.

Unlike Dana, who is surprised by sudden events, the Lord (?), Floria asked the priest gently without showing any haste.

"Suddenly you come into a man's house, and I think you're acting a little weird, but what do you want?

"Hmm, I don't need you. That's my daughter."

Adelmo, a priest, turned his gaze to Dana without changing his attitude to Florian's question.

"How long have you had something unfit for you? That's stupid."

In Adelmo's words, Dana figured out what the priest in front of her was trying to get into.

At the same time, I feel sorry for Floria and the others.

I think this noise is entirely my fault.

Floria smiled and reassured Dana before seeing Adelmo.

What do you mean, "incompatible"?

"Don't you know such a thing? This is a divine instrument. Of course we deserve to be in charge!

That said, Adelmo saw the water mirror on the table.

And Floria opened her eyes deliberately to Adelmo.

"You think this is a divine instrument?

"Yes, of course! I don't even know that, I know you're not worthy!

Soon, the subject will spread from Dana alone to Floria.

Still, Floria nodded as if she was impressed without any particular concern.

"Ho ho, I see. This is the instrument of God. That's what the priest said."

"That's what I've been saying!

From the beginning, Adelmo looked at the glitter and the water mirror as if she didn't see Floria.

"So, what brings you all the way out here?

"As it stands, it could be sold to fools who don't even know the value of these mirrors. Of course, I will receive it in the temple!

"Really!?

Floria turned to Dana, who tried to raise her voice in protest, as if she were silent.

Whether that thought came true or not, Dana sat back on the chair she was sitting on as she was trying to get up.

And now Sylvia, who had been watching the conversation silently until then, opened her mouth to see Dana calm down properly.

"Acceptance is a lot of pressure, but do you have permission?

"Witches of the Flow are not obliged to answer that."

It was Adelmo who glanced at Sylvia, but she sighed like she was stunned.

"That's not the answer. The rule of the temple is to protect the property of the faithful. Of course, you'll need permission to pick it up."

Adelmo, who saw Sylvia again, snorted his nose into his pocket and barely took out a piece of paper.

Then he threw the paper into Sylvia.

"Is that what you want to see?

Adelmo's release to Sylvia was undoubtedly a permit to collect it.

"... it looks real."

Sylvia nodded, confirming that the permit had the signatures of high-ranking officials, including the temple chief.

Adelmo nodded after seeing it with a happy smile.

"I told you. Tools should be in their rightful possession. This is not what men like you possess."

Adelmo reached out to the mirror with pride to show her permission.

"Ah...!

Dana raised her voice unexpectedly, but without seeing how she cared about it at all, Adelmo took care of the mirror.

"Well, I'll definitely take this. Aren't you thinking of making some extra noise?

After sticking a nail to avoid rebellion, Adelmo left the room with pride.

Dana, who saw Adelmo coming and going like a storm, looked anxiously at Floria and Silvia alternately.

"Um, is that okay?

Florian answered as he glanced at Florian and shrugged his shoulders.

"Isn't that nice? He pushed me on his own and took it with him.... oh, you don't want to do this on your own because you have a permit?

Well, either way, Floria continued.

Sylvia looked at the Floria and smiled a little before turning to Dana.

"I'm sorry to inconvenience Dana for a while, but can you wait?

"Wait...?

"Yeah, I think we'll get results in a few days."

Dana nodded at Silvia's words.

"I see. I'll take care of it."

After seeing the mirrors Adelmo had, Dana decided to trust them completely without doing anything.

In the first place, I know very well that I can't do anything on my own in the temple.

As a result, Dana was going to spend the next few days as if nothing had happened, as both of them said.

Having heard the report, Benito unexpectedly shouted.

"... what?

Against such a master, the rapporteur has no choice but to repeat the same report again.

"It appears that Adelmo used his authority as a priest to take the artifact from the Diviner."

Understanding that it wasn't a mistake, Benito put his right index finger on his temple.

"... what are you thinking, that idiot?"

The unexpected words from Benito made the rapporteur polite (?) I decided not to hear it.

"It looks like I had a permit, so I was in good shape..."

"Isn't that the problem?

Well, yeah.

Benito looked lightly at the reporter who shrugged his shoulders.

"... but, well, if that happens, I can only say that I left my hand. I can't help it, let's give up."

Are you sure?

Beginning with hiring a negotiator, Benito is putting a lot of money into this.

"I'm sorry, but if you do something bad from here, it's going to hurt more than ever. You'd better cut your hand."

These losses (?) is one of the proof that Benito has grown the Chamber of Commerce so far.

There's nothing I can do about the money I just put in.

Benito had already given up on the money as if nothing had happened at all.

"... yes."

The rapporteur nodded as much as he was convinced of the Lord's judgment.
