Chapter 178: Inquisition (5)
——Huu, and.
A faint spreading breath.
Smoke, not vapor, fluttered.
The garden of the Brilliant Sun Royal Palace.
Amid flowers cultivated through techniques decorating all sides,
Johanna murmured softly.
In the midst of her long robe, smoke flowed from the gap where Johanna's face should have been visible. Pitch-black smoke swayed following the direction of the winter wind. Without eyes or nose or mouth or ears, and without expression as well, Johanna extended her hand.
——Tap, and.
Johanna's hand touching a green leaf.
The mont black fingers touched the leaf without any gap,
——Rustle, and.
The leaf fluttered toward the dirt.
Having already withered.
Johanna's head tilted to the side.
Iris and Abel stood together. The Pope, a Duke, and the Sword Saint. Even the garden of the Brilliant Sun Royal Palace seed modest for the empire's confidants to converse. Johanna walked forward with a slight smile. She passed Abel and Iris heading toward the garden's exterior.
"It is exactly as I wrote in the report."
Abel exhaled a sigh.
He spoke while following Johanna. About what he experienced in Portsmouth without falsehood. Even about the existence of the Demon King who had awakened enough to bestow grace upon an Intelligent Species.
Johanna laughed quietly.
The Demon King. It was not that she did not believe Abel's words, but sohow she laughed whenever she heard of the Demon King's existence. Like all subjects of the empire, Johanna too had encountered the existence of the Demon King through fairy tales based on prophecies.
"Of course."
Abel nodded once.
"You told to experience two positions difficult to maintain together. Professor and Sword Saint."
"It was difficult."
Both guiding the children as a professor,
And facing Intelligent Species as the Sword Saint.
The entire process.
Abel murmured so.
"I seem to have committed many mistakes, and there were clumsy parts among them. Especially regarding guiding the children. However, I did not fail."
It was probably thanks to the children, and.
As Abel whispered in a small voice,
Johanna declared flatly.
