Reincarnation Monarch

"... by the way, wasn't General Gorkos the only son under the present Pope?

Gaius asked Dulm with a strange face what he actually knew.

Then Darm suddenly ran a tension with Pickeen on his face.

"Oh, yeah! The general is your son. But..."

"But?"

"Bishop Lennon hasn't raised his report."

Gaius accidentally twisted his neck to Darm's confession.

"... haven't you reported it?... Do you have any idea why?

"... come on... I don't know what that is..."

Dulm looked slightly worse as he twisted his neck.

Gaius then blamed it sharply.

"... hey Mr. Dalm, you really do know that, don't you?

Darm turned his body against Bikun to Gaius's point.

"Yes, no... well..."

"Hey Mr. Durm, if you want to be led by me, stop deluding me. Isn't it futile that we talked about that? Then I'll go home, won't I?

"No, no, no, wait a minute!... Shh, sorry. It's kind of hard to say... I'll be honest about everything from now on..."

"Yes, then tell me what you think"

"Yeah... well, Bishop Lennon's immediate boss is the Secretary of the Foreign Service of Calvin, whose lord Calvin is said to be after the cauldron now under the Pope"

"Huh. So you're saying that Lord Calvin is not close to the current pope?

"No... the appearance seems to follow very faithfully... just..."

"Just?"

"It's just a pose, and it's really a rumor that you're after the next pope."

"Huh. So Lord Calvin's men, who are after the next Pope, are Bishop Lennon."

"Yeah. So..."

"... I see. So you're saying that Bishop Lennon is hiding this case for Sir Calvin for some reason?

"... I don't know what Lord Calvin would gain by hiding it under his arms, though I guess..."

"Sure... there's no point hiding it without some gain from hiding it... no, there's one more thing..."

"One more thing?

"Yeah, one of the things Bishop Lennon can think of as a reason to hide this case is if you get some gain by hiding it. But there must be another one. That's... if you think you're going to lose something if you don't hide it."

That was how Gaius quietly put his arms together and began to ponder.
