Southern continent extending beyond the South Central Sea.
Almost all of the continent is a vast unknown land where no one has ever set foot, but the Cape in the western part of the continent has been populated and dominated by the Leblanc Empire for 600 years.
Even after the division of the Empire between East and West, the cities, villages, and fields were erected as bridgeheads for colonies on the southern continent of the Great Leblanc Empire, from which rare spices and other rare spices were valued by the nobles of the Empire's mainland.
A splendid building stood in the middle of the port town known as Tazient, the largest city of the people placed on its southern continent.
It occupies a considerable area in the heart of the city, including a huge pair of spires and the cathedral that connects it, as well as a large enclave, which is a central Hilkist church on the southern continent.
Instead of a white and majestic architectural style, like the church on the mainland, it could be said that it is a unique building woven by the contrast between the red of bricks and the white stone that edges it, blending well into the city's landscape, except for its height and size.
It is the deputy appointed by the emperor who governs the city of this Tazient, but a more splendid mansion than the mansion where the deputy resides is built behind the church grounds.
In one of the rooms behind that mansion on three floors, symmetrical from left to right, which adopted the same architectural style as the church, one great man was sitting in a chair with a big belly shaking and an uncomfortable look on his face.
Because it is a bigger physique than the original one, the body swollen by obesity is beyond the bounds of the normal person, and the chair sitting in the seat is raised whenever a man moves despite its sturdy construction.
The head had no hair whatsoever, and the man, who looked like a frog because of his slightly distant eyes and swollen cheeks, was frowning with his eyes on the two figures who knelt before him and spoke.
"─ In order to ensure that the Pope is steady in the performance of his duties here, I, those behind me, and others will be newly assigned to Lord Charos. From now on, we will carry out our mission in accordance with the will of the Pope in a manner that obeys the life of Lord Charos."
The man, dressed in Hilkist priestly clothing, smiled softly and bowed his head respectfully, calling the giant man sitting in front of him Charos.
The other blackened figure who imitated it and held back also bows his head.
A giant frog man - he is one of the seven Cardinals of the Hilk Nation and his name is Cardinal Charos Accadia Industria.
He was also the chief officer of this church, the heart of Hilkism on the southern continent.
"I already understand, because I understand! As far as the mission is concerned, I don't mind moving with your extraction, so just take the beast behind it and get out of my house! My castle smells like a beast!
He pressed the two of them to exit, taking such a trick as to drive them away with his hands, as the charos tried to stare at the blackened man who had refrained behind the priest-style man.
A person wearing a black hood from his head, who had refrained behind his words, reacted slightly, pulling him backwards so that the long, black tail grown from the person's waist swayed and hid his presence.
Charos, watching as he did, snorted uncomfortably and turned his gaze toward the priest-style man.
But the priest-style man, who was relative, thanked him deeply with a grin, not to be offended by such an attitude of the Cardinal, before quietly leaving the room with the blackened man he had refrained from behind.
Dropping them off like that, Charos snorted rough and then sighed.
"Oh, because it was a relaxing, indolent environment away from the annoying mainland, but if you let the tadients collapse, you wouldn't even be able to eat good food... I have no idea what the Pope is thinking because he's been here forever."
Yes, alone. Once he exhaled a grand sigh now, Charos shook his own big, protruding chunk of fat in his stomach and mouth.
That's how I hit him once in the stomach and looked up like I had come up with something.
"That's right! There's only about 10,000 soldiers in the basement over here, and they're precious, so why don't you just put a hundred of your men on them and tell them to do something about it! Then the Tadient will be cheap for a while, and it won't be against the Pope's life, will it? I'm smart!
Chalos jumped out of his chair in a light-hearted move that didn't suit his body like a chunk of that fat just as quickly as possible, whining such a grand solitaire and making his nose rough with Fuhifuhi.
"In the meantime, I can't if they're tempted that the cause of the collapse of the Tadient is in the church, so we'll have to do something about it in a very small number of people."
and nowhere to look cute frog man groaned one with a scared cat stroke, pulling him into the back room with a ravenous foothold to ask the servant of the mansion for a message.
