Asking for a favour

The pope and the priests all looked at me in shock when they heard this.

They looked like they couldn't believe that I was asking them to leave like this.

The knights that had been watching while surrounding the priests from the Zeno Religion all knitted their brows when they heard this. With the way that they were looking over, it really seemed like they wanted to step forward to say something.

But before they could do anything, the pope suddenly raised his hand to stop them.

The pope didn't even look at the knights as he continued to look at me for a bit before saying, "Your majesty, I think that there's been some kind of misunderstanding. I know that anything that I try to say today will result in further misunderstandings, so let's end this matter here. I hope that we will be able to have another talk on this matter another day."

With that, the pope gave a bow and then turned to leave.
