Chapter 1118: Special room
The one that spoke first in the end was the pope of the Solista Religion.
"Your majesty, we meet again." He said with a simple smile on his face.
I looked at him before shaking my head with a sigh.
The pope didn't seem to mind as he kept looking at me with the same smile on his face.
I honestly never thought that I would see him again, even if I was pulled into coming to this Holy Empire. I thought that I would be able to sneak around and not see this pope again.
I never thought that I would be pulled in front of the Holy Council like this.
After all, I shouldn't be considered that special to the Holy Empire that they would bring all of their leaders together like this.
But it seemed that I was wrong.
After that sigh, I said, "Indeed, I never thought that we would meet again so soon."Nôv(el)B\\jnn
"It's all the arrangement of the lord." The pope of the Solista Religion said with the same smile on his face.
"Enough of that, let's get down to business." An old man in black robes said from the other end of the table. He turned his eyes from the pope of the Solista Religion to look at me before saying, "Show us the Mark of God."
The way that he said this was as if he was commanding me instead of asking me.
I couldn't help slightly knitting my brows at this since it was the first time that I had been talked to like this since coming to the Holy Empire. Though I also couldn't help finding it strange that I was feeling this way since this should have been my expectation when coming to this Holy Empire.
It was the way that they had treated me this entire time that had been strange now that I thought about it.
But regardless of what it was, this was not a situation where I could get distracted.
"This is the light of the lord, it's so warm..."
"How can the Mark of God appear on someone unrelated to our Holy Empire?"
The last words were said in a soft voice, but I had picked them up which made me slightly knit my brows.
I had already thought that there would be these thoughts in the minds of some people, but I never thought that they would admit it so openly...
It seemed that there were things that I had to watch out for in the end.
"Bring them to the special room." The pope in the black robe suddenly said, bringing everyone out of their daze.
The other popes didn't react at first, but then they slowly nodded in agreement.
It was Saintess Irene who took the initiative to come forward as if she wanted to guide me, but this time I didn't follow her right away.
When I heard them mention this 'special room', I immediately had several things pop into my mind.
Since I had the knowledge from the game, I knew immediately what they were referring to when they said 'special room'. And if it was what I was thinking of, I could guess why they had brought me here.
Of course, I wouldn't just follow them without a word.
Instead of following Saintess Irene, I looked at the popes sitting there with narrowed eyes before asking, "Which room is it?"
The popes were surprised to hear this before the popes in black and red robes narrowed their eyes to look at me as if they didn't trust me.
But before they could say anything, the pope of the Solista Religion said, "It's the one with
the crown."
A shocked look appeared on my face when I heard this.
