A few hours had passed since I began talking with Alesia. We discussed our corresponding plan and agreed to help each other.
To my surprise, the headmistress was more heartless than I initially thought. She didn't even blink when I explained my plan, which could break this Kingdom from the inside. She did remind not to pass a certain limit and not involve normal civilians.
Of course, I understood that. If my plan did go smoothly, no one would be hurt except for King Cassius, who never showed any goodwill to and didn't even try to repay his debt, and Princess Carissa, who tried to use . The Queen would be happy. I would make sure of that.
After we finished, I left the Academy and looked at the sky. From my radar, I found out that my spy, Sandra, had also returned to the mansion with Linda and Jane.
But I was in no hurry to return. I needed to stop by the church to tell Sana about sothing and needed a little help from Bishop Ertha if the Archbishop disagreed with . I might not need Bishop Ertha if the Goddess interfered and sent an oracle directly, though.
"I hope you will bless this Paladin of yours, my Goddess," I muttered in a low voice as if talking to myself.
Nothing happened except the fact the sun sohow flickered once. I would just think of that as permission from Goddess Lilith and that she would help convince Sana of my plan.
This world needed a little change. And I definitely didn't want to investigate the East border by snooping around. I knew that I would definitely make a ruckus. So Alesia's plan would definitely help a lot.
'Then I need to get the other Underworld Cities under my control too. But that can be done slowly, step by step. The first step will happen in the Annual Tournant that's held in a few days.'
I walked down the road toward the church confidently. The people were talking about how I defeated Scylla with excitent and cheered when they saw . I got more attention than usual, and I smiled at them to reply to their complint.
Arriving inside, I imdiately went to Sana's office as she was there. She was probably busy with various docunts at this ti, especially because Castitas Academy would also join a tournant.
'She probably needs to approve a few things from the Academy's headmaster.'
"Sana, do you have ti?"
I pushed the door of her office open and saw her buried behind stacks of docunts on her desk. Stopping writing, she raised her head and smiled at .
"Sir Arthur, of course. Do you need sothing from ?"
"Yes, I need a little bit of your ti."
Stepping inside, I closed the door behind and went to the couch. We were both used to it, and serving was more important than any docunts for Sana, so she went to the couch across from and sat.
She was wearing her usual clothes, a tight white leotard and black sleeves extending to her shoulders.
"Is there sothing wrong, Sir Arthur? I believe our plan to spread the news about you defeating the scary monster near the World-End Waterfall has spread, right?" She asked with a confused look.
"I heard many people were talking about it on my way here," I replied with a nod. "But I am not here to talk about that. I need to inform you about sothing. This sensitive issue might affect the Kingdom as a whole."
Sana nodded. Then she stood up, pressed the area above her crotch, and bowed, "Please feel free to tell , Sir Arthur. I, Sana Castitas, have offered my all to you and will abide by your command."
She made sure that I knew where she stood, and I nodded, satisfied. That ant she would support in whatever I did. I didn't seem to need the Goddess' help to convince her.
"Sit down, Archbishop," I spoke commandingly, befitting a Paladin. She followed my command and returned to her seat, looking at seriously.
"It's not that dire of a matter. I just want to inform you that I have dominated the primordial Succubus we talked about in the past, so she won't cause any problem any longer."
"Really?!" Sana raised her tone as a color of surprise appeared on her face. Her eyes widened slightly, and then she gasped in realization. "M-My apologies. I didn't an to raise my voice."
"It's okay." I smiled softly at her. "Let continue. The Royal Family has debt to . Rember King Cassius's promise to deal with the nobles that attacked ? He didn't settle that, right?"
After I saw the Archbishop nodded her head, I continued.
"And then the Princess influenced Mia, making her lose control and kidnap Milea. I have already saved Mia; she is currently training to control her new trait in one of my bases. That is in the Border City."
"Border City… Sir Arthur. Could it be?"
"The primordial Succubus nad Beatrice took over that city. So when I dominated her, I beca the leader of the Border City." I explained with a little bit of a lie to Sana.
With my position, I couldn't just say that I personally headed there and threatened the leaders to take over the city, no? That was after I fucked one of the leaders senseless and dominated another leader, a Vampire, because she loved my blood and was terrified of .
"I see…" Sana muttered in understanding. "That ans… We managed to secure one of the best locations. And the fact that the Princess went missing… Sir Arthur. Do you know sothing about it?" She narrowed her eyes slightly at .
"The Princess' escorts were revived just a few minutes ago. They were screaming that the Princess killed them and went to the Sin Kingdom to get power to brainwash the King, or so they said."
I smiled at Sana while slowly crossing my legs.
"That was the truth," I spoke in a calm tone. "I found out the Princess wanted to use from people in the Border City. Did you rember King Cassius' marriage proposal?"
"Yes, I was there at that mont." Sana nodded.
"That was the Princess' request." I lied with a straight face.
With Princess under Lucy's control, nobody would believe her even if I twisted the story. Besides, Vampires were hated, even more so after the Kingdom spread false news that a Vampire rampaged that night and was chased out by the Kingdom Knights.
Now, if the Princess who went missing suddenly returned as a white-haired Vampire, what would the citizens' reaction be? They would reject her.
The rumors had already planted the seed of doubt in King Cassius, and the Queen was probably devastated. Beatrice would use that to whisper sweet words to her, preparing the beautiful blue-haired Queen for .
"The Princess loves her father. It is a love involving Sins of twisted love toward one blood-related father. I guess that's enough to make her a Sinner. And even more so, she influenced Mia, a Castitas Church nun, to provoke and use . If the Princess is not a Sinner, then what should we call her?"
"A grave Sinner. Only Goddess Teri can save her soul." The Archbishop imdiately answered with a grave expression. "If what you said was true, we can declare the Princess a Sinner when we have evidence. I will inform Her Eminence the Pope about this, Sir Arthur. Thank you very much for informing ."
"It's my duty. I will leave the rest to you."
"Yes. Once again, we can avoid a catastrophe thanks to you. As expected from the man I love." She muttered in a low voice at the end of her sentence, but I could hear it and smiled at her.
'Now everything is prepared. I just need to wait for a few more days. anwhile, I will probably visit Duke Blacktomb to have a little talk with him.'
