The Lyon Guild (6)
"Really, if Ijust do that, you'll handle everything on your own?"
"Yes, what I need first is to beco a goldsmith. That way, I can avoid the guild leader's attention more easily."
"It doesn't seem like that alone will solve everything, though?"
"You're right. That's not all. I have to put in my own efforts as well."
Rockefeller cut his words short.
"Also, the bishop must make his own decision."
"What decision are you talking about?"
"Whether to choose soone from the sa family or to seat soone else who is beneficial for the church and the bishop in the guild leader position. That's the decision that needs to be made."
"Hmm... That's difficult. You only make difficult requests."
Blood is thicker than water.
It was common to take care of the sa family mbers.
"I know that it's difficult. They'll probably take care of soone from the sa family more than . That's the right thing to do. But I believe that the bishop knows better who would benefit him more without saying it."
"I need so ti to think about that part."
"Yes, but please make my brother and goldsmiths. This is completely separate from that matter, so it shouldn't be too difficult for you."
"I understand. Don't worry too much about becoming a goldsmith. If I request it, the royal family must naturally accept it. Who dares to question it?"
"Then I'll trust the bishop and move according to my plan."
"Have you thought about how to move?"
"I have a rough idea. For now, I plan to pretend to listen and buy ti. If I want to be a guild leader, I have to stay in that guild, right?"
"That's true."
"Although it's clear that I'll need the bishop's help later, I'll try to move on my own for now."
"I understand. I need so ti to decide who to seat in that position, so co back when the ti cos."
"Yes, for now, I'll withdraw and trust you. Oh, I think I'll stay in Lyon for a while, so if you need for anything, please call anyti."
"I got it. If there's anything you need, I'll call you through Leo, who is working as my personal secretary. Make sure to tell Leo as well."
"Thank you. Lastly, when can I know the result of the request to the royal family?"
"It won't take more than a week at most. I'll make you a goldsmith within a week, so co back after a week."
"Then, I'll visit you again in a week."
After finishing his eting with Bishop Verkis, Rockefeller was able to et Leo right after leaving the room.
"Were you here? Were you waiting outside?"
"Did you have a good eting with the bishop?"
"Sowhat. Leo."
"Yes, Rockefeller."
"I think I'll stay in Lyon for a while. Sothing ca up."
"Really? In Lyon? Didn't you say you'd stay in Lyon for a while and then go to the capital?"
"Sothing unexpected happened. It's quite a headache."
Leo, who showed a puzzled expression, asked again.
"Did sothing happen?"
"It's not going well. So, I'm going to stay in Lyon for a while and take care of Leo."
At this level of conversation, Rockefeller took Leo for a walk in the hallway.
On the way to the cathedral entrance, Rockefeller smiled lightly, and Leo looked worried.
"If things didn't go well... is there anything I can help with?"
"No, not really. Just be aware of where I am. You're working as Bishop Verkis's secretary, right?"
At those words, Leo nodded.
"Yes, it seems like the bishop is taking care of . I'm not a personal secretary yet, but I'm learning various tasks under the personal secretary."
"So you're not an official secretary yet."
"Yes, I'm still young and have a lot to learn."
"But being in that position at that age is sothing. Others can't even imagine being in that position, so you should be proud of yourself."
It wasn't that Rockefeller couldn't understand why Leo beca Bishop Verkis's personal secretary.
'Well, thanks to the church's property is growing. That's only natural.'
As they almost reached the cathedral entrance, Rockefeller patted Leo's arm and said goodbye.
"Then, I'll go. Don't worry too much about , and you have to do well on your own. I can't take care of you forever."
"You don't have to worry about . I'm not a child anymore, and I can take care of myself."
"That's a relief. Anyway, I plan to stay in Lyon for a while, so Ill let you know as soon as a location is set."
"Yes, please let know as soon as you find a place to stay. I'll visit you whenever I have ti."
"Alright, see you next ti. I have to get going because I'm busy."
