Nelson stands with a surprised look on his face as Costa remarks how pointless it is for Nelson to ask what they're doing there clearly they've come to take him away from this place an elf guard nearby yells in protest accusing them of trying to abduct a prisoner and demands they hand him over in response one of The Intruders hurls a bomb into the prison before the guard can react everyone including the prisoners is gone Climbing ropes to escape the castle Nelson follows them still confused and stutters trying to figure out who they are Costa introduces

he wants her to do as much as she can assuring her that he will check over and Fix any mistakes during operations and assist with anything unpredictable coron filled with excitement eagerly agrees the scene shifts to a mommy and yuno standing outside facing zes who stands before them princess yuno filled with concern questions Zess about his whereabouts and rushes forward urging aamy to step aside in response zes calmly remarks on her Noble status acknowledging her Authority and noting that it's only natural for her to take Charge however he cryptically adds that this time is different
Saia angered by zest's demeanor steps forward and demands to know if he has come from the human country she sternly tells him to leave emphasizing that the people of this land do not wish to cause trouble for the humans they only desire to live in peace and good health zes responds with a cryptic comment about the human country claiming ignorance but adding that ideals are often out of touch with Reality Saia grimly counters that they should strive to bring their ideals to fruition but Zess mockingly dismisses her calling her retort meaningless without warning he signals
his companions and they all begin shooting arrows simultaneously yo shocked by the sudden attack rushes toward amami while siia also steps into to help more Intruders join the fry launching an assault on amami and his group leaving yuno and disbelief elvian guards rush to Their aid as one of the attackers targets youo she narrowly evades the attack and in a moment of shock activates her magic thrashing the attacker away as the veil of the as salent is lifted yuno is stunned to discover that it is a dark elf with her attention momentarily diverted another attacker
attempts to strike yuno from behind amami quickly warns her and yuno instinctively turns evading the attack and countering it leaving her as salent In shock yuno is thrown to the ground by the intensity of the attack causing her to Grunt in pain despite this she quickly recognizes the gravity of the situation and forces herself to launch another attack to protect a mamy and the others however the strain of using so much magic begins to weaken her arms which worries amami but youo determined to ensure everyone's safety insists that she's fine and urges amami to escape
quickly warning him that the attackers Are likely targeting him specifically she assures him that she by time for his Escape but amami is still reluctant to leave his concern for her evident meanwhile two of the Dark Elves observing aamy comment on the situation one noting that his attack was too shallow and the other advising her not to drop her blade suddenly a powerful attack strikes but this time it's directed at the dark elves startling everyone including aamy and yuno in a State of Shock they all look up to see two huge creatures flying towards them
as the creatures get closer it becomes clear that they are a chimera and Alec in his Dragon form the sight of them shocks cess who exclaims in disbelief wondering who they are and whether they've already managed to put out the fire realizing the situation has turned against them zes quickly informs his companions that they need to retreat as they can't fulfill their objective under These circumstances one of the Dark Elves questions whether they should leave without finishing what they came for but Zess explains that it would be too Troublesome if the princess reaches the castle
he assures them that everything will be fine if the others stick to the plan and that they can finish the job later hearing this the dark elves agree remarking that their targets are lucky this time they turn around and begin to walk away leaving Yuno Saia and amami in shock however the dark elves aren't as naive as they appear as they retreat they pull out a bomb lighting it up and ominously saying that they'll meet again in hell with that they throw the bomb towards yuno and amami before making their escape as the bomb thrashes
toward them amami freezes unable to move the next moment the bomb explodes with a deafening bang engulfing the area in Fire and smoke Chimera and Alec in his Dragon form grow Increasingly worried for amami anxiously scanning the scene yuno standing bravely in front of aami tries her best to Shield him from the blast but she's quickly running out of magic amami and Saia remain in danger struggling against the intense heat and Flames just in time a slime douses the fire with a shower of water reducing the flames and clearing the smoke Chimera and Alec immediately

amami's trembling voice reassures her that it's not her fault coron arrives with a medical kit and a mommy groaning in pain directs her to his arm wound he asks her if she can handle the treatment to which coron hesitantly stutters unsure if she's up to the task amami smiles and tells her that he trusts her to take care of both his and yuno's injuries Gathering her resolve coron nods and confidently says she's ready to do it after everyone Leaves the room becomes quiet as they Slide the curtain closed preparing for surgery coron and Saia appear

might be involved Costa with a devilish smile hints at being in good company with the Cardinal but reveals that his real employer is Someone else he taunts s mentioning that he's been tracking the movements of the six stars elf growing impatient Cuts in and orders Costa to stop wasting time and move on as he intends to take the priest To His Highness The Demon King Zess is shocked by The Mention Of The Demon King while Costa frustrated by canan's interference realizes that he can't afford to let zes live any longer Kanan with a malicious tone
coldly states that there's no need to justify Killing since the outcome is the same they'll be dead anyway zes understanding the gravity of the situation laughs man as he pieces together the plan involving saines fire bombs Dark Elves and shrewd diversionary tactics as he prepares to use magic the dark elf shouts out in alarm ordering the others to kill him Jill and Percy launch a powerful Counterattack forcing zest to flee down the hill he murmurs to himself aware that they won't hesitate to kill him at The first opportunity determined to escape with all the information
he's gathered zes activates a magic spell that creates a huge explosion using the ensuing smoke to make his getaway as he believes he successfully escaped zes suddenly feels something stab into his back causing him to scream in pain the dark elf sensing zest's presence shouts to his comrades ordering them to follow as he declares that he's found their target zes continues to run despite the Dark elves relentlessly shooting at him his wounds deepening and blood seeping from his injuries gritting his teeth he pulls out a healing stick and activates a spell chanting desperately to heal
himself as he struggles to recover zarus points out the light ahead signaling to Kanan Kanan noticing zest's attempts to heal while fleeing remarks on how frustratingly resilient humans are though he doubts zest's endurance will match the physical abilities of a dark Elf zes presses on until he reaches a patch of dense Tall Grass thinking he can hide there meanwhile while zarus standing outside the grass asks Kanan for their next move noting that Kanan hasn't used a particular tactic yet without hesitation she shoots an arrow toward the grass the sudden sound shocks cess and before he
can react the arrow pierces his body blood pooling around him the grass Parts slightly from his movement as he collapses to the ground Groaning in pain zaras and Kanan approach realizing they've hit their Mark zar draws her sword and advances toward the Fallen Zess who desperately tries to defend himself by activating a magic spell but his condition is rapidly deteriorating and His Hands burst open causing him to cry out in agony surrounded by Canan and the other Dark Elves his movements are hindered Zara swings her sword through the air and brings it down on zest's
neck blood Gushing out she strikes him repeatedly her blows Relentless finally she tosses her sword aside suggesting they finish him off lying on the ground battered and helpless zes gases in pain muttering that he can't die here not like this suddenly a sharp Voice rings out declaring they found the dark elves and calling for reinforcements the dark elves get alarmed and glance around as zarus questions what they should do now that those from the world tree have Arrived Kanan decides they should leave zes behind predicting that he'll soon die die a miserable death with that
they begin to walk away satisfied with their work as Kanan remarks that he's worked up a good sweat and it's time to head home after they leave a voice emerges from the surroundings commenting that everything worked well a beautiful girl appears from the tall grass and kneels beside Zess softly saying that Mio is here for him calling him by name Mio Gently explains to zest that when two crystallized magic Jewels resonate they are irresist ably drawn to each other she expresses relief that Zess is safe recalling how everyone exchanged their Jewels during that time by
holding each other's Jewels they ensured they could always find a way to reconnect if something went wrong with this connection she instantly sensed where he was playfully she remarks how lucky he is as she begins to drag him out of the Grass eventually reaching a waiting horse apologizing to the horse gnarl for the delay Mio takes zest's stick and notes that comet has probably figured out what's going on by now she then borrows zest's stick again using it to conjure magical stairs leading up to her horse with zest slung over her shoulder she climbs the
stairs mentioning that she had already healed him earlier as they mount the horse the stairs crumble behind them and Mio concerned wonders Aloud why zes still hasn't woken up the scene shifts to the six stars of the church gathered together they reflect on how they vowed never to lose each other emphasizing that they only truly become the six stars when all six of them are together as they notice comet's presence he reveals that Mio has used his Jewel causing shock and alarm among the others as they realize something has happened to Zess Comet announces his
intention to go to the world tree stating that he Just came to inform them Arch urges him to wait and calm down insisting they should seek instructions from echol before taking action FIA noticing Arch's own agitation tells him to calm down as well so stepping in offers to inform eckol and adds that if Comet plans to fight he's going too she thanks Soul while Comet unable to contain his anger kicks the wall in frustration declaring that he can't sit still in a situation like this Arch observing comet's anger Comets that he's never seen Comet this
upset before FIA recalling past events me that Comet often comes to them to vent his frustrations noting that those who are precocious like him tend to get upset the easiest she remembers hearing from MiO about how mad KET was during the Barony homicide incident a time when his anger was just as intense Arch curious asks about that time and FIA clarifies reminding him of the Barony homicide incident FIA continues Explaining that it happened 10 years prior she recalls seeing comet from Reverend eckl's group carrying the staff of Leaping some people gossiped about him saying that
his Bishop was just a money grubber and that Comet was only there because of his wealthy parents they cruy speculated that The Bishop's power over their families was due to hoarding money dismissing comet's presence as nothing more than a product of his parents wealth suddenly Soul Appears and shouts at the gossipers calling them out for their disgraceful behavior of talking behind someone's back startled the group quickly disperses muttering complaints as they flee Soul now alone with Comet apologizes saying he chased them away Comet seemingly unaffected responds with a resigned tone pointing out that they don't
even have parents making their remarks thoughtless the two of them then join Arch who is sitting inside arch With a somber expression informs them that Reverend Eckles won't be coming today and they're left to study on their own comet visibly frustrated complains about the overwhelming amount of material they have to learn questioning whether they are being neglected Arch still engrossed in his book simply shrugs and says he wasn't told anything either Comet annoyed asks if Arch is the only one studying seriously and inquires about the others Arch responds that Mio Ran off to do her
experiments likely in the courtyard the scene shifts to Mio and FIA who are indeed outside in the garden fi noticing Mio's experiment exclaims in alarm that she's using gunpowder urging her to stop Mio confused asks why and FIA gritting her teeth reminds her that her last experiment caused a small fire which led to a warning from Mr Eckles Mio seemingly clueless asks if it really did which frustrates FIA even more Suddenly moo shouts that she accidentally used magic causing FIA to scream in panic as they both run away there's a huge bang and both girls
are blown away by the explosion from a nearby window someone shouts down at them asking what they're doing trying to act innocent both girls pretend nothing happened denying any involvement with guilty Expressions meanwhile Comet and soul hearing the explosion come outside Comet noticing the chaos asks what they Were doing this time he then spots Z sitting on a tree branch and asks why he's up there Zess calmly replies that Reverend Eckles told him to stop Mio's experiments if they became too dangerous Comet confused asks why he didn't stop them just now Zess with a measured
tone explains that he judged the experiment not to pose any serious threat zes then hands a letter to Comet informing him that it appears to be a challenge letter written by the bishop and meant for Comet surprised Comet grabs the letter and asks Zess why he was was given the letter he responds that Reverend Eckles believed Comet should be able to judge the situation correctly later the group finds themselves standing in front of a huge mansion which they recognize as belonging to the Barony as they approach Comet walking with Mio mumbles to himself wondering why
he and Mio were the ones sent here and lamenting that he can't even stop her from doing her Experiments in the courtyard as they draw closer to the mansion a man standing guard outside demands to know who they are asking them to State their names and business inside the Mansion Comet and his companions informed the residents about a murder prompting a shocked reaction from a lady who demands an explanation Comet however insists on clearing up some uncertainties first by asking a few questions this frustrates another man in the room who complains About the delay stating
that they've already completed the examination and just want to go home questioning whether Comet and his group are even capable of resolving the situation Comet firmly responds that they too want to wrap this up quickly and assures them that they can handle it Comet begins his questioning by asking if lady miseri had ever sustained any large injuries the man answers that although lady miseri required intensive training and Deployments while working under the church any injuries she had were healed completely and none were considered large the woman adds that nothing significant happened in her childhood either
emphasizing that her sister comes from a Count's family Comet then moves on to his next question asking about lady misery's menstrual cycle specifically if there were any instances where it lasted longer than usual a little girl who helps with Lady misery's Functions raises her hand and informs them that lady miseri has already stopped menstruating this prompts the man to angrily question the relevance of comet's inquiries expressing his impatience and frustration with the interrogation ignoring the outburst Comet states that he has one last question however before he can proceed a stern-looking man enters the room and
addresses another man named Lawrence the newcomer pulls out an envelope revealing That a special permit number 42 has been delivered this surprises Comet who questions the unusually fast delivery noting that such deliberations typically take much longer the man explains that Reverend Eckles had handed them the permit earlier stating that it would be necessary later everyone looks at the man in shock and moo impressed remarks that their teacher knows everything just as expected she turns to Comet asking for his agreement Comet reflecting on the situation realizes that zes had misunderstood the situation this wasn't a challenge
for them but rather a protective measure from their teacher the lady in the room suddenly screams out in denial insisting that she wasn't involved in the murder and asks if they're certain about their conclusions the girl confirms her innocence which shocks Comet the woman then turns to the Girl Again accusing her of being the first to find the body And implying that it would be natural for a murderer to discover the victim first especially since the girl lacks an alibi the girl however defends herself stating that she has no motive to harm the Madam and
that while The Madam was alive she often sighed and muttered to herself about the trouble she caused the woman angrily responds dismissing the relevance of this information the girl then snaps back pointing out that the Madam and her sister were in Dispute because of these issues which could be a motive for the murder one man asserts firmly stating that ctis fania is not at fault this prompts the other to question how he can be so sure addressing hinet directly he points out that hinet had been in charge of deliveries and stock for the county a
position granted by miseri herself this responsibility connected to The Baron's influence clearly lines hinet with her the man suggests that since mizeri had Been troubled and reluctant about her Goods the real conflict with his wife might have involved hinet hinet stammers in denial but the man decides to drop the subject suggesting everyone move on Comet however seizes the moment noting that their argument has been quite revealing he asks one final question out of everyone who had come close to the deceased lady miseri before their arrival who among them could use healing magic in response everyone
says despite Their affiliation with the papacy confirms that they cannot use healing magic the room Falls silent as everyone turns their gaze toward bearing glin shocked by the accusation glin looks around clearly taken aback as Comet points out that the only remaining suspect is him the room's Focus shifts entirely to glin who bracing himself protests vehemently he insists that his ability to use healing magic does not make him the culprit accusing them of Playing a trick on him another man puzzled asks for clarification from comet in response Comet instructs moo to insert another needle this
time to the left of the deceased Naval Glen gets distressed and demands that they cease their examination of his wife's remains expressing his outrage and pleading for them to stop even commanding Captain AA to intervene Comet who is still unfazed reveals a special permit allowing the autopsy which is otherwise forbidden the Permit numbered 42 and issued in the name of the Pope authorizes the examination despite its usual prohibition Glen's shock deepens as he learns about the permit questioning the absurdity of the situation he is unfamiliar with the concept of an autopsy which involves cutting open
a body to inspect its internal structure and determine the cause of death Mio Begins the autopsy by inserting a needle into the deceased abdomen applying fing Pressure she notes that the resistance is similar to the previous spot indicating some obstruction beneath the skin as she presses the needle further blood seeps out which she collects in a cloth seeing this Glen laughs dismissing the bleeding as a natural result of needle insertion Comet frustrated by Glen's dismissive attitude performs a demonstration on himself pressing a needle into his own stomach this action shocks everyone present Comet visibly Angered
explains that the blood on the needle doesn't indicate any stored blood revealing that the needle was clean inside the captain examines the needle and confirms comet's observation noting that there was no blood stored in the needle moo quickly heals Comet praising his bravery but remarking on the extreme measure of opening holes in his own stomach Comet responds seriously acknowledging his actions and explaining that the situation is getting tedious With people pretending ignorance he then reveals the critical finding lady miser's abdominal muscles are severely torn indicating a violent attack rather than natural causes the captain observing
the body questions why the abdomen is in such a state Comet clarifies that miseri was stabbed leading to her death from blood loss the lack of discoloration on her back is explained by the fact that she was not moved but had bled out the healing of The skin above the stab wounds was done to conceal the injuries confronted with this evidence Glen kneels in regret the woman with him demands to know why he committed such an act Comet concludes that the motive was likely Financial a common reason behind such desperate actions with a trembling voice
Glen admits his guilt he explains that while being a Barren places him in the aristocratic hierarchy his position is one of the lowest ranks his title is Precarious and could be revoked at any time due to his weak stand ing despite maintaining the Barony the economy is struggling and misery's constant spending on the county and Merchants has exacerbated their financial troubles Glen Reveals His long-held dream of becoming a magician however the county forced him to marry miseri and returned to secular life a decision made to acknowledge his status as part of the aristocracy he Compares
his situation to That of the children whose dreams and resources have been similarly crushed the confession is a painful reflection of his dire circumstances as he admits his actions comet is reminded of his own past recalling his mother's harsh words she had blamed him for losing a customer and lamented having him reflecting the weight of expectations and disappointment in his own life emerging from his thoughts Comet snaps at glin his anger palpable he dismisses Glen's Tears as insincere and expresses his disdain for the criminals attempt to justify his actions with with a pitiful Story comic
clarifies that he has no sympathy for Glen's Petty revenge and is enraged by the harm glin has inflicted on those close to him miser's sister intervenes revealing that miseri had been secretly working to help glin achieve his dream of becoming a magician she had been lobbying the papacy sending gifts through hinet and even enlisted Her own help to increase gin's chances the sister's words reveal the depth of misery's devotion and the sacrifices she made for Glen's benefit overcome with regret glin begins to cry out loud calling misery's name this emotional display momentarily diverts everyone's attention
seizing the opportunity glin suddenly makes a move shocking everyone he grabs moo and threatens to harm her demanding that everyone drop their weapons he declares his intention to Escape and find happiness elsewhere Mio remains calm activating her magic to evade Glen's knife which only cuts through her hair in a State of Shock glin is soon confronted by Comet who unleashes a powerful magic attack despite Glen's efforts to evade a fierce battle ensues however glin is soon overwhelmed by the combined magic of the six stars who incinerate him into ashes after the confrontation Comet approaches Captain
Lawrence and says he will leave The remaining matters to him Lawrence thanks Comet for his assistance and prepares to head back Comet nonchalantly remarks that he was only here because he was asked to curiously he inquires about Lawrence's previous examination methods which differed from his own Lawrence explains that most examinations involve casting healing magic to determine if someone is dead but comet's approach was unique and effective Comet simply replies that he follows his teacher Methods with that he bids farewell leaving Lawrence to reflect on eckl's mysterious nature and the intriguing possibilities ahead outside the barren
Mansion the six stars are all gathered and FIA notices Mio's hair is a bit of a mess she casually mentions that they should fix it up when they get home but Mio always resourceful says she's planning to make an earring out of it as a Keepsake from today meanwhile comet is clearly irritated to see everyone there And asks what's up with the full turnout Arch explains that Mr Eckles had been worried and sent them to check on Comet and Mio just in case comet is clearly annoyed and FIA can't resist teasing him pointing out that
he never admits when he's happy to see them Comet true to form tells her to cut it out misery's sister then steps forward and with a deep sense of gratitude thanks them for everything they did for her sister and Glen Comet responds with a polite bow Taking the thanks and stride later back at the church Arch suggests they all exchange their magic Jewels this way even if they're far apart they could still keep track of each other's well-being everyone is on board with the idea with soul enthusiastically promising to rush to anyone's Aid if needed
and Zess agreeing that more info is always a good thing Arch then asks Comet if he's in and with a firm tone Comet proposes they make a pack to never Lose each other emphasizing that they're only the six stars when all six of them are together the group agrees and Comet privately acknowledges that these people really do feel like his true family the next day as comet is out and about the town is buzzing with chatter about him people are talking about how he recently cracked a big aristocratic murder case leaving everyone in awe of
what the six stars have pulled off some are impressed others are a bit envious but it's clear That their reputation is skyrocketing in the middle of all this someone turns and notices Archbishop s slap standing behind them the Archbishop with a calm smile assesses the young man Kelson and offers him a place under his wing promising to give him power Nelson is visibly excited by the offer eager to see where it could lead fast forward to the present and the scene shifts to the Eerie demon kingk castle where Nelson is now being presented a dark
intimidating Figure who's most likely the Demon King acknowledges Nelson as the healing magician He commands Nelson to step closer assuring him that no harm will come to him but despite the words he's clearly terrified sweating heavily Corone is busy checking an elvian guard when the elf Captain approaches asking about hikes condition she reassures him that although she's still an apprentice and plans to have her master take a look later she doesn't see any immediate risk Of auma thorax or other serious infections the captain looks visibly relieved and thanks her hike however lowers his eyes in
regret apologizing for letting the enemy Escape the captain gently advises him not to worry too much pointing out that they were outnumbered and faced explosives encouraging him to focus on improving himself for next time hike agrees and coron silently resolves to do the same as Sia sits quietly nearby she suddenly notices a mommy Stirring excited she calls out to coron announcing that a mommy is waking up he slowly sits up yawning and realizing he overslept Alec and are shocked to see him awake while coron begins to Cry tears of relief the group gathers around amami

agrees that comet's right and stresses the importance of of understanding what happened at the world tree and why Zess Was attacked just then someone approaches them and introduces himself as tylon from the Inquisition accompanied by several cloaked figures and a lady tylon clumsily announces that they are Under Suspicion of rebellion and are now under arrest the history of the church and healing magic traces back to a time when Humanity faced severe oppression during this era God bestowed upon Humanity cemus known as the man of origin Who along with his 10 disciples established the church amid
the global disaster known as the Calamity the church utilizing the Miracles they called upon repaired and rebuilt relations between humanity and other races as a result the church grew into the main institution of humanity evolving into what was considered the center of the world medicine's development followed an empirical and rational approach from ancient Greece With hypocrates to ancient Rome with galin the title of cardinal originating from cemus and his 10 disciples describes the leadership within the church today the church is a centralized organization with the Pope at its head and 10 Cardinals beneath him the
hierarchy also includes priests Bishops and archbishops positions awarded based on character logic and Faith all under the Pope's Supervision in recent years factional politics and human Affairs Have brought the church under increased scrutiny the role in selection process of Cardinals have evolved from their original form cemus in his quest to consecrate the prayer of Eternity left this world to be with God in the first year of the Holy era the church then took on the responsibility of guiding Humanity into the future using the Miracles left by camus's disciples missionary work continued aimed at all social
stata but the current ERA still Reflects a tendency towards maintaining the divisions and oppression between humanity and other races despite a long history of seeking unity and Harmony the church following cemus is Dogma harshly punished those who opposed it this led to the formation of the Inquisition which oversaw trials and enforced the church's rules answering directly to the pope unlike the papal Secret Service the Inquisition was an institution where typically only members from the kavash Faction including figures like sisap iard and Cupra could participate the three Cardinals leading the kavash fact action are key figures
within the church this faction is known for its strong belief in anthropocentrism placing human interests at the center of its ideology in contrast the [ __ ] faction Embraces a more open approach promoting harmony with other races while the sum hack faction focuses solely on Doctrine and legitimacy unlike these factions the Kavash faction is marked by its militaristic Tendencies and employs various methods to control its followers their external appearance often masks their internal workings which are heavily influenced by military strategies and control mechanisms although the kavash faction holds significant sway their influence is still limited
compared to the Inquisition which operates directly under the Pope's command historically Religious institutions have frequently been divided by differing circumstances leading to the formation of internal groups with distinct ideological positions as the Inquisition unfolds one of the Cardinals outlines the reason for summoning Eckles clearly frustrated eckol lets out a sigh and indicates he has no time for Such trivial matters he turns to leave but Kupa intervenes using her magic staff to block his path and commanding him to stay she asserts that Withdrawing from an inquisition is unprecedented and demands his presence cisar adds his voice
to the matter expressing offense at the suggestion that they are not serious he implies that Eckles is disrespecting them and reveals that even St Selena has come out of her own volition expressing her doubts about Eckles as cisar smirks he fluns his five- horned Crown a symbol of their Divine Duty and Readiness he emphasizes that their role is to ensure Humanity's peaceful existence and questions why Eckles would obstruct this Divine Purpose Eckles calmly responds stating that he has no intention of hindering the Divine will and inquires why he is being accused cisar then calls a
card who starts outlining the concerns with a stack of papers koua begins reading the points the first point concerns eckl's alleged abandonment of his subordinate Kelson according to reports Kelson fled from the world tree Leaving him in the midst of dangerous races like dragons this inaction in the face of such Peril is deemed inhumane raising significant concerns the card further intensifies his accusations warning that eckl's actions have put the country on the brink of an emergency he insinuates that an apology in good faith might mitigate the situation Eckles adopting a formal tone expresses his apologies
with a deep bow which prompts a devilish smile from cisar while KLA a Card and even tylon look on with mocking smirks relishing in eckel's apparent vulnerability meanwhile Comet and the others stand outside the door struggling to contain their anger eckol however doesn't let the situation unfold as they expect he remarks that he could never have known that csars disciple was as incompetent as described a comment that instantly triggers anger in KLA aard and the other Cardinals iard snaps at him demanding clarification but eckol Unperturbed asks if he should simply leave his calm demeanor infuriates

if it ever faces Strife he does not hold responsibility for kelson's incompetence He suggests that if the Cardinals truly want to hold someone accountable they should start by investigating their own orders iard now Furious Cuts him off declaring that this is eckel's Inquisition not theirs he brings up a recent disaster accusing Eckles of being connected to an arson attack claiming that burn under imprisonment allegedly confessed to the papal Secret Service that the Archbishop had deliberately set the city on fire a card accuses eckol of knowing about the plan and allowing it to happen demanding an
explanation for such a grave charge eckel smile subtly expressing surprise That they would take an arsonist word so seriously and suspect him the very person responsible for capturing the culprit iard unable to control his frustration demands to know if eckol believes the disaster and Chaos could have been prevented Eckles calmly suggests that if Cardinal no saap had been in charge things might have turned out differently this Revelation shocks a card who incredulously asks if eckol is referring to Cardinal noap Eckles Explains that Cardinal noap oversees the towns in the southern district including the prostitute town
if noap had understood Burns intentions the disaster could have been avoided he subtly implies that perhaps no sap should be informed of what is currently unfolding a card now enraged accuses eckol of not only causing conflict with the dragons but also potentially stirring up trouble with a fellow Cardinal maintaining his composure Eckles notes that a card has Finally revealed his true motives he then turns his attention to St Selena questioning why she is pointing her weapon at him given that she is neither part of the Inquisition nor a cardinal he firmly requests that she leave
Selena glares at Eckles before turning on her heel and exiting slamming the door behind her the Cardinal with a smirk remarks that Selena's rivalry with Eckles was the reason he involved her believing it would ensure eckel's Cooperation eckol and tylon exchange confused glances but the Cardinal's tone soon shifts to something darker as he warns that they are far from finished he accuses eckol of merely Shifting the blame and introduces the second and third concerns the so-called holy water produced by eckel's followers he demands to know what this suspicious liquid truly is Eckles calmly explains that
it is just a modern ad adaptation of an old tradition where rural people used fruit To prevent wounds from festering the term holy water is simply a name given to this drink the Cardinal clearly unimpressed questions whether this explanation holds any weight KLA with a malicious tone adds that regardless of the name the holy water is being made by slum dwellers who turn the Poor's fruit into a liquid which clergymen then claim has Divine properties a practice she argues contradicts the teachings of God aard gases accusing eckol of committing Arson on a massive scale to
continue producing this foul concoction he stays calm calling the accusations ridiculous and asking what proof they have the Cardinal growing impatient demands Eckles show evidence to defend himself warning that they have plenty to support their own claims Eckles glares at the Cardinal clearly not pleased while the Cardinal just mocks him asking how he feels about the situation iard smirks clearly enjoying eckel's discomfort with A resigned sigh Eckles admits that he had been suspicious about what they were planning but now it's obvious that this was never a real Inquisition he points out that the whole thing
from taking hostages to trying to intimidate him is just a farce pretending to be an inquisition he then asks what they really want from him the Cardinal clapping his hands excitedly is thrilled that Eckles finally gets it he says this will make things much easier and moves On to the fourth and final point of concern he brings up the incident with Kelson and then with a malicious tone mentions that one of the six stars came back heavily injured from the world tree the Cardinal sarcastically wonders what could have happened teasing eeko by suggesting he surely
knows what's going on with the six stars he smirks and adds that if eckol were truly paying attention he'd already understand the failure of his subordinate throwing in a Final remark about what's expected of someone who supposedly human the scene shifts to amami and coron where coron carefully finishes removing amami stitches once done she checks on a mommy who filled with excitement feels great and looks at how beautifully the wound is healed allowing him to move like normal again grateful for her help he expresses his thanks and coron with an innocent smile is equally thankful
