In the library of the holy kingdom capital palace a man can be seen. The size of the room is big enough to have several dozen people living in it. The room was also crowded by bookshelf and some that doesn’t even fit the shelves has been placed on top of the floor, making a mountain of books.
The door of the room was knocked.
However the man didn’t react so another knock can be heard. After seeing no reaction, the woman who knocked gave up and entered the chamber in silence.
“Archbishop-sama, there is some matter to report.”
“Archbishop-sama, Archbishop-sama, how many times I have to tell you that my name is Dowran? Dowran! Cinzia, how many times I have to tell you?”
“Pardon me, however as the follower, I have to call you Archbishop-sama.”
“Cinzia, are you going to listen to me as the Archbishop?”
“Ah, sorry Archbishop-sama for intruding your reading time.”
“Call me Dowran.”
“Sorry Dowran, it’s because you are too immersed in reading that I have to come in.”
“Ah, don’t mention it Cinzia, it was my fault.”
after hearing that, Cinzia start to gives her report.
“Do you want to hear the bad report or very bad report?”
“No matter what it’s bad isn’t it?”
Dowran said that as he turn the page of a book with a wry smile.
“The first report is regarding Yu Sato.”
“Is the pursue team wiped out?”
“That’s a probability since we can no longer contacted them after they go to Comer city.”
despite the spies might have been wiped out, Cinzia didn’t show any other expression and indifferently continue the report. “Yu might be capable but the spy leader and captain should be capable to survive.”
“It seems that the spy leader was taken by him.”
“Come to think of it, there was another surveillance team right? What about them?”
“Dowran-sama, this is the other very bad report. It seemed that the ‘root’ organization is involved in this incident.”
“It might be Bataille or Bessieres.”
“We don’t know yet but the team seemed to be wiped out too.”
Dowran then closed the book he was reading while stretched his spine lightly.
“If that’s what happened, then there’s nothing we can do. Now I wonder if Mussu was already on the move? Now, how about sending out the number eight to comer city?”
(Tl note: the spies earlier mentioned number seven and now number eight.. we might be seeing ranked knights?)
“Dowran-sama, the number eight is on a mission. Can you give me another name?”
“How about number three? It has been so long since he has work as if he disappeared.”
Dowran then continue to read as he ends the conversation.
