Part 3
The winds of autumn could be felt.
Before they noticed, it was already October.
The area around the royal capital headed towards winter and it suddenly became cold.
The top of the bridges that extended between the districts received especially strong winds.
Diablo held down the hood that covered his head.
Rem, Shera, Horun, and Rose also wore similar outfits.
Lumachina also wore one.
The plan was for her to confront the Cardinal Institute as the High Chief Priest, but the troubles would increase if an uproar were to suddenly happen.
Right now, she had a hood on and was concealing her identity.
The evidence of the Cardinal Institute’s evil deeds were placed on a wagon and pulled by a horse. Rem was gripping those reins.
「……This is the place, isn’t it.」
The Twelfth District──
After crossing the bridge, the entire district was the Grand Chapel.
The gate that was there had its doors opened, and there wasn’t anyone that seemed like a gatekeeper. It seems that it’s closed at night though.
It was a declaration that they would accept anyone.
Surprisingly, a normal town spread out before them.
Since there were mostly no signboards, the atmosphere was different, but there were also restaurants, as well as shops that sold accessories and clothes.
Lumachina explained.
「Those are run by the believers, and a majority of the sales are donated. There are many customers that come to do some shopping from other districts as well.」
「……There sure are a lot of clothes and shoes stores. Moreover, they are really cheap. They are close to half the market price.」
「It’s true. Those sandals, I might want them!」
