Episode 87

About 30 minutes later, a carriage approached from the other side. It was a carriage with the temple's pattern engraved on it. Seeing the wagon, Elisha and the others got off the wagon.

“Lady Lucerne.”

Rosaria was the one who got out of the carriage in the temple. Her face was glowing with strange excitement, joy, and tension.

Elisha greeted her warmly and said,

“You have finally made up your mind. Miss Rosaria, what was the election result?”

“I'll probably have to go back to the temple soon.”

“That word…….”

Said Elisha.

“I am the next great pope.”

“Congratulations. His Holiness.”

Elisha greeted me gently. Rosaria dissuaded Elisha.

“Lady Lucerne. I won't commit corruption, and I won't take your side unconditionally. Do you still regret it?”

“Why do you regret it?”

“When the Cartier family made the great pope, did he not intend to wield it at will?”

“Do whatever you want. However, ask for help and we will work together if there is mutual benefit. What I want is to manage the temple like a temple.”

“…….”

“And don't forget that you got there with my help. I decide how to pay off the debt.”

Rosaria flinched. At that time, Elisha, who was quietly watching her from behind, quietly opened her mouth.

“I will not let you corrupt the temple. Lucerne promised me.”

Oddly enough, those words put her at ease. Elisha's calm tone had such power. Rosalia nodded her head.

“I also know that I have to compromise with the world to some extent……. A lot of people in the temple are corrupt, so if I'm alone, I won't be able to last long.”

“You are right.”

“But I will do everything in my power to purify the temple as clean as possible for the rest of my life. It is to ensure that the next great pope inherits the real temple, which is more upright than I am. I believe that one day the Cartier family and the temple will really cut their hands.”

“I hope so too.”

Said Elisha. Lucerne glanced at her. He said nothing.

“Therefore. Whose will was all this? Didn't you say you'd teach me later?”

Elisha lowered her eyes.

“The will of a married couple is one, so is there any need to ask whose will it is? No matter who came first, the numbers that came to mind matched.”

“Lady Rosaria.”

Lucerne said.

“Elisha taught me how to convince Miss Rosaria.”

“…….”

“It looks like Lady Rosaria was included in the picture Elisha drew.”

Rosalia didn't understand that and opened her eyes wide. Elisha received Lucerne's glance, and she added.

“Rosaria's monastery was a way for me to live. I want to repay that favor, so Rosaria-sama, I hope you don't forget my husband's kindness.”

“Okay.”

Rosalia looked at Elisha and Lucerne in turn, then she slowly nodded her head. She prostrated herself like a knight and greeted him.

“I will never forget this grace of mine.”

Elisha and Lucerne nodded. They left in their own carriages.

Thus, a person who did not belong to the Cartier family became the Grand Pope. This has been a long time coming.

*​ *​ *​

“Huh……. Oops…….”

My ass felt like it was going to burn red. The intense sex that had just ensued made Elisha hot all over her crotch and the bottom of her ass. Her back felt like it was going to break, and only breath came out of her mouth.

Jureuk.

When Lucerne pulled out his penis, the juice and semen from his long, thick penis dripped onto the bed sheet. Lucerne tapped her round ass with the palm of her hand, as if praising Elisha for reaching down on her long legs and receiving her cunt.

“Huh…….”

Elisha's waist trembled at the strange vibration that the meat of her hips trembled.

“It blushed so quickly, it was such a waste that I couldn't even catch it.”

“…… Lucerne…….”

After the intense stimulation of the lower body, Elisha now had to suffer from his auditory teasing. The breath from her stomach spewed out of her mouth.

Lucerne lay down beside her, one arm resting on her side, looking down at Elisha. Elisha slowly turned her body to lie down, facing Lucerne.

“Are you satisfied now?”

“…… What?”

“Because I replaced the Grand Pope according to your plan.”

“Where can I be satisfied? It was the best for both of us.”

Lucerne affectionately stroked Elisha's cheek.

“Didn't you forget that promise?”

“Which one?”

“If Rosaria betrays me, you will take responsibility.”

Elisha bit her lip.

“When did I do that?”

“I do not remember?”

At those words, Elisha recalled her words.

'People change anyway. Would it be different from Miss Rosaria?'

'Trust me and push him.'

“Why does that sound like that?”

“If I get hit in the back of the head, I'll be angry and release it as collateral, then that's the same.”

“…….”

That's not wrong, Elisha bit her lip. Lucerne thrust her finger into Elisha's lower lip. She then put her finger in her mouth and stirred it.

“Town…….”

“Therefore. A collateral is a collateral, and a prize is a prize.”

Lucerne whispered.

“What do you want as a reward this time?”

Elisha's cheeks were flushed pink when her fingers whipped out of her mouth.

“The truth.”

“…… What truth?”

“I want to hear about you.”

Lucerne has often made such an incomprehensible expression these days. The black pupils inside his red eyes constricted once, and he looked at Elisha like a wild beast that had seen something unfamiliar.

“Why?”

“It's my lifeline. Is it strange that I want to know? Originally, those below want to know those above, and those above are not interested in those below.”

In a trivial way, it was a law that applied to friendships, lovers, and vassal relationships. There is no relationship in the world without hierarchy. This is what Elisha learned from her previous life experiences.

“Is this a protest for attention?”

“Do you really think so?”

“No.”

Lucerne answered seconds later.

“To tell you that a protest will work.”

“…….”

“How much I care about you, I wonder if you don't know that.”

Lucerne kissed Elisha on the lips.

“What are you curious about. Tell me.”

Suddenly, Elisha had a strange experience. A lot of useless questions came to mind.

Why do you keep making fun of me like this? I really don't know if she's ever had her interest in her……. Perhaps. Even the slightest emotion……. If you have her to her. What kind of feeling is that

'I must be crazy.'

Her thoughts were of no help to her survival. Elisha tried to forget those thoughts.

“The day of Yurif's ball. When she leads Mer Harlist to the ground where Ralpo's corpse is located. Then I want to ask about things first.”

“Tell me.”

“It was our plan to lure her Merha there and then show people how she collapsed. To make things big. However……. I didn't know that she would confess Merha at the time. At that time, she was extremely agitated by Merha and she was distraught. In fact, her Merha had puncture marks under her fingernails. But when the doctor arrived shortly thereafter……. Her Merha said that no traces of confessions or hallucinogens were found on her body.”

“…….”

“What kind of drugs were you using then?”

When she first met Lucerne, Elisha told him to interrogate her using a confessional if she was suspicious of herself.

Jacob trained his men against the Confessor. Elisha from her previous life also underwent the same training.

Confession was not a drug that developed tolerance. However, when the confession agent was injected, he could survive to some extent if he acted as he was trained. So, Elisha thought she could control Lucerne's mind, no matter how strong the confession was.

'But it's not detected in the body, and it's a confession agent that almost makes Merha go insane.'

Mogol sang. Elisha didn't have the confidence to resist something like that.

“Well, what do you think?”

“…… I can't guess.”

“Merha hurriedly got on her horse and got stabbed by her bridle in her bridle. I've never been stabbed with any drugs.”

“Then is there a confession that is not a drug?”

Lucerne beckoned. Shhhhh. A shadow floated over Elisha's head.

“This guy is my confessor.”

“…….”

“Shadows are living witches and wizards. Don't you think you have that kind of talent?”

“Then the rumors people say about you…….”

Elisha recalled rumors she had heard in her past life. Lucerne said that she was a master of interrogation, and that she would make anyone tell the truth through whippings and confessions. She said that some people come out half-dead.

“It is a secret. Elisha. Not much is known about my monster, so I'm trying to hide it as the last card.”

The back of Elisha's head felt hot for a moment.

'Can I safely divorce someone like this and leave this place?'

Elisha already knew many secrets. Lucerne clicked her tongue as she saw the fear in her eyes.

“Are you afraid to come now?”

“…… No.”

“…… Come to think of it, when you first met me, you said you would eat confession.”

Elisha was straight.

“Now I want to decline.”

“Wouldn't that be better?”

Lucerne smiled.

“Sure.”

“I don't want to write either. So don't make secrets from me in the future, be a good wife. It's not difficult, because you are excellent.”

“Yes.”

Elisha froze and nodded her head.

“So is this really okay?”

“I want to hear more about you.”

Elisha said quietly.

“What kind of person was your mother?”

“…… You really want to hear everything.”

Lucerne's face hardened in displeasure. Elisha's eyes wavered. Even though he and she had gone through a lot of things to become close, she didn't mean that Lucerne wasn't scary. If she could be wrong, she was Elisha, she was a being who could disappear at any time.

As soon as Lucerne met Elisha's trembling eyes, she slowly calmed down. He continued to move her hand that had been patting her as if to soothe her Elisha.

“That's the information I want to use for something.”

“I am just interested.”

“The excuse is the same as before.”

“No one cares about your birth mother. So.”

“…….”

“I just want to know…….”

Lucerne hesitated. He pulled the blanket over her and covered Elisha with it.
