Chapter 49 Sudden Change

"The Saint Heir has descended?!"

Archbishop Ivan uttered in a low voice, hastily concluding his speech and quickly leaving the view of the crowd.

His behavior was somewhat unseemly, but the people did not realize anything and continued to sing and dance, celebrating the most splendid day in the history of Enrold Town.

Ivan entered the headquarters' office and ordered all four Bishops to be present, after waiting for a while, only three arrived.

"Where is Sean? Why didn't he attend the gathering?" Ivan frowned, as Sean had rarely shown himself in the past few days.

"He is at the Saint's Gate, it is crucial tonight, and he doesn't want to make a mistake at the last moment," one of the Bishops explained on behalf of Sean.

Ivan nodded reluctantly, accepting this explanation. Ninety-nine steps had been taken, and a misstep at the final one could not be afforded.
