“You possibly can’t kill them, you’ll be able to’t kill……!”
The Excessive Priest staggered to his ft.
However he stretched his arms anyway.
“If we kill them, there might be a larger tragedy…….”
The Excessive Priest begged desperately, nonetheless not fairly awake.
“We should discover Miss Roselina, now!”
“I’m right here, settle down, Excessive Priest.”
And there she was, proper in entrance of him.
Shifting quicker than ever, the Excessive Priest dropped to his knees.
“Please assist me. Please……!”
“…….”
However there was no sound of Roselina’s voice.
Simply because the Excessive Priest was about to despair, he immediately felt a material wrapped round his shoulders.
“That is…….”
“The Excessive Priest should have had a horrible nightmare, however you’re all proper now.”
Roselina wrapped a blanket round him.
The Excessive Priest, now again in actuality, slowly opened his eyes.
“Look. Nobody died.”
Listening to her phrases, the Excessive Priest hesitantly turned his head.
The scene within the grand corridor earlier than him was devastating.
The ground was cracked and the partitions have been damaged.
Injured individuals have been respiration raggedly.
But, nobody was lifeless.
Quickly, the Excessive Priest’s gaze fell on the fallen.
“These are…….”
They have been those he had seen within the prophecy.
The Excessive Priest spoke in a trembling voice.
“They turned human.”
“H, how lengthy has it been?”
The Excessive Priest requested urgently after listening to Roselina’s reply.
“Effectively, I don’t know the precise time, but it surely should have been no less than half an hour.”
“Aaah…….”
Within the prophecy, they’d grow to be human and turned again right into a demon inside minutes.
However there was no signal of that till now.
‘Actually, the prophecy of the longer term has modified.’
Tears crammed the Excessive Priest’s getting old eyes.
“Excessive Priest, are you all proper? Are you in ache?”
“No, no. It’s nothing like that, Miss Roselina. Thanks, thanks…….”
The Excessive Priest bowed his head and saluted Roselina.
“Miss Roselina. I don’t know in case you understand it but, however you’ve modified the prophecy…….”
“Excessive Priest, now isn’t the time to speak about that.”
The Excessive Priest was a bit stunned by Roselina’s reply, however then he was satisfied.
“Very effectively, I have to do one thing in regards to the scenario first. I’m afraid I’ve been too hasty.”
“No, Excessive Priest. What I wish to say is one thing else. Are you able to reply my query?”
Roselina’s voice dropped to a whisper, barely audible to one another.
“In fact. Be at liberty to ask.”
“Is the rationale I can’t kill demons as a result of…… they arrive again to life?”
The Excessive Priest’s eyes widened at Roselina’s easy query that hit the reality without delay.
“How have you learnt that…….”
“From the best way you’re reacting, I’m guessing I’m proper.”
“Then what are you planning on doing with them? You possibly can by no means kill them.”
“Don’t fear, I’ll maintain it.”
Roselina pushed herself up.
The chandelier had already fallen to the ground and shattered, however someway a halo appeared to shine from Roselina.
“Only a second, please. It received’t take lengthy.”
With these phrases, Roselina spun round to face the middle of the corridor, wanting like a jack-of-all-trades.
‘She’s modified, like she’s been born once more.’
The Excessive Priest was overcome with an odd emotion.
As soon as, individuals within the capital would have jumped on the sight of Brighton’s carriage within the distance.
Roselina was so obsessive about horse manure that he was usually baptized in it when she noticed him.
The Excessive Priest was Roselina’s essential goal.
The Excessive Priest stares off into the gap as he reminisces about his time with Roselina.
Sooner or later, a livid Roselina burst into his presence.
“Is it true that nothing is born on this earth for younger Palesdon? Inform me!”
“Miss Roselina. How did you…….”
“It doesn’t matter how I came upon in regards to the prophecy, simply inform me!”
Roselina, who had discovered the a part of the prophecy that was solely advised to members of Palesdon, had come to him to pay attention for the remainder of the verse.
“I’m sorry, however I can’t let you know that.”
“Why?”
“I merely ship the phrase of the gods to those that are entitled to. And the prophecies regarding them are just for the celebration and their households to…….”
Puck!
The following second, the odor of horse manure was within the Excessive Priest’s face.
By way of his blurred imaginative and prescient, he may see Roselina operating wild.
“That is ridiculous. The place is such a factor?”
“I’m afraid I can’t assist it.”
“What sort of nonsense is that, outdated man? You’re simply mendacity!”
Roselina, resentful of this, usually threw horse manure on the Excessive Priest.
“Miss Roselina, what are you doing?”
“Shut up, outdated man.”
Not solely that, however she additionally known as him an outdated man, implying that he was unworthy of his title.
This explains why, within the prophecy, when Roselina known as the Excessive Priest ‘Previous man’, he didn’t discover it unusual.
Roselina, who would have been imprisoned if not for being a Brighton, was remodeled.
‘I used to be short-sighted. As she grows and modifications, Miss Roselina modifications her personal future…….’
The Excessive Priest shuddered with an emotion he had by no means felt earlier than.
Then.
“We will’t let this stay unpunished! These criminals confirmed up on the palace, destroyed the grand corridor, and threatened the lives of nobles and royalty!”
“That’s proper, that’s my daughter-in-law, so she is aware of what she’s speaking about!”
Roselina’s loud voice echoed via the Grand Corridor.
Catalina’s voice echoed again as if she’d been ready for it.
“Above all, they!”
“They……?”
The Emperor repeated cautiously, a bit weary of Roselina and Catalina’s eagerness.
“They practically put me, and nobody else, in hurt’s method! I’ll by no means allow them to get away with it, not even when they repay me many, many instances over!”
“That’s proper, they dared to the touch a Palesdon, to allow them to’t get away with it!”
The Excessive Priest was silent for a second as he watched Roselina storm off with Catalina at her again.
‘Maybe I’m mistaken.’
The Excessive Priest clouded his eyes, figuring out that human nature was not simply modified.
“Then what’s it that the Duchess of Palesdon needs?”
“That they be imprisoned in Aphoris without delay!”
The Emperor lastly requested for Roselina’s needs.
“Aphoris, you imply that jail on the finish of the world?”
“The Duchess of Palesdon has her thoughts set firmly on it.”
“The place they name the graveyard of criminals as a result of it’s not possible to flee?”
Aphoris.
It was the one jail that had been supervised by all of the nations of the continent.
It housed essentially the most heinous criminals that the legal guidelines of the land couldn’t deal with.
These imprisoned in Aphoris have been condemned to an eternity of torment worse than loss of life.
Aphoris was additionally infamous for being in the midst of the ocean, making it troublesome to get in or out.
“Effectively, contemplating their crimes, they need to be in Aphoris.”
“They shouldn’t be in Aphoris, not by a protracted shot. I feel they’re simply attempting to indicate the Duchess of Palesdon that if she touches them, they’ll put her in hell.”
“I’ve heard rumors that they’ll by no means die in order that’s actually scary.”
As he listened to the nobles chattering away, one thing clicked within the Excessive Priest’s thoughts.
‘They’ll’t die or stay ceaselessly……. May it’s that Miss Roselina has made this selection to save lots of their lives?’
He stared at Roselina with trembling eyes.
Simply then, she turned her head barely to take a look at the Excessive Priest.
‘Sure. That’s proper.’
She appeared to say.
On reflection, it couldn’t have been higher.
Rely Molzigat and his companions had smashed the palace and practically killed the royal household.
They might have been executed instantly with out trial.
‘But when they did…….’
In the event that they have been put to loss of life, they’d rise time and again as demons to destroy the world.
That was no excuse for letting Rely Molzigat and his companions go free, whose crimes have been so grave and evil.
So Roselina talked about Aphoris.
In Aphoris, all nations had equal energy, and even the emperor couldn’t arbitrarily punish imprisoned criminals.
‘How far-sighted was Miss Roselina to make such a judgment in such a short while?’
The Excessive Priest swept a hand down the goosebumps in his arm.
‘Maybe Miss Roselina is the one I’ve been on the lookout for.’
The Excessive Priest’s eyes sparkled with anticipation.

[Quest ﹤Discover the secret behind the demon that attacked the Imperial Palace﹥ has been confirmed].
[Quest ﹤Progress through the Scenario ﹤Hero of the Empire!﹥ (4)﹥ has been completed].
[You will receive 50 Fate Energy as a reward].
Based mostly on the knowledge I obtained from my dialog with the Excessive Priest, I made a robust argument to the Emperor in regards to the demons being imprisoned in Aphoris.
“I perceive the Duchess of Palesdon’s needs, however this isn’t a matter for me to resolve by myself, so I’ll withhold my resolution.”
“However, Your Majesty!”
“If the Duchess of Palesdon’s assertion turns into the official place of Palesdon, and never your individual opinion…….”
My plan was flawless, however the Emperor intervened.
‘It can’t be helped, I will provide you with a style of the reality in your soul.’
I grit my enamel and check out once more to plead my case, however another person is one step forward of me.
“In fact, it’s the official place of Palesdon.”
“In fact it’s! Our daughter-in-law says so!”
It was Argention and Catalina.
And
“Winfrote agrees with the Duchess of Palesdon’s needs.”
“And there may be nothing legally improper with that.”
Margrave Winfrote and Baron Edward chimed in.
“The identical holds true for the Magic Tower.”
“In fact!”
The Grasp of the Magic Tower, who had come to his senses within the meantime, took Countess Maria’s hand.
“It’s not simply Palesdon’s, it’s additionally Brighton’s official place.”
And eventually, my father.
“What does ……the Excessive Priest suppose?”
Lastly, the Emperor requested the Excessive Priest.
“I dare not oppose what God has no purpose to oppose.”
The Emperor’s face contorted barely because the Excessive Priest agreed.
However with so lots of the Empire’s main figures current, there was no purpose for him to refuse.
“I see. We’ll imprison them in Aphoris.”
Lastly, the Emperor raised the white flag.
And with that, the chaotic presentation of the Rose of Concord Analysis appeared to finish, till—
A couple of days later.
“What? The sinners being transported to Aphoris have disappeared?”
The surprising information rocked the Empire.
