Leaning against the wall, I craned my neck to peer down the shadowy staircase, staring into what seemed like an abyss ready to swallow me whole.

Cut out my... tongue? Frozen in shock and horror, Casimir chuckled lightly, as if she found my shock amusing. “You just have a way with words that’s almost dangerous. It’s worrying.”

As I soaked in the warm bath, all sorts of random thoughts crossed my mind. Could other players, swayed by the Order, be faking ignorance like me? Are they genuine believers or sly actors?

Ex... husband? And he’s here in the Cathedral? Wait, you guys got married, divorced, and still get along? “To be precise, he was someone I married before converting.” Casimir explained. “That’s right. Once we took our oaths, everything in our past, including our marriage vows, became irrelevant.”

“I’m sorry. That was a mistake.” “Please, let go of my hand.” ‘What should I do now?’ The moment Tertius let go, he was worried that Fabio might seize the opportunity to flee. But continuing to hold him would only fan the flames of his fear.

Tertius was well aware that Fabio was no ordinary serf. …Individuals under surveillance by those beyond the stars, usually have made a contract with a specific entity.

The halo shining behind Adna was the kind you’d normally only see when a Saint performed a miracle. When Tertius asked what she had done, Adna said it wasn’t a blessing she had used but simply an attempt to calm down her emotions.
