Chapter 292
I won't talk about this to anyone else.
Even if it costs me my life.
It's the highest honor.
But I should at least tell this person.
I've been conducting investigations that are nearly confirmed, and I'm getting closer to the truth.
However, Serena-sama doesn't like it.
To make him stop him investigations and inquiries, it's necessary.
"Pope-sama, I have something to discuss!"
"What kind of discussion?"
When I mentioned "Serena-sama," he easily made time for me.
I talked about Serena-sama's true identity.
And I talked about his concerns regarding that.
"I see! Not just God's beloved child but 'God's Son'... Oh, how lucky I am to have been born in such a time!"
"Pope-sama, regarding that..."
"I understand. I won't allow any more inquiries. Our duty is to fulfill Serena-sama's wishes. Of course, I won't speak of this to anyone else. And for your safety, it would be better for you to stay by Serena-sama's side, so I shall grant you the position of a Holy Knight dedicated to Serena-sama."
"Thank you."
"I see, so Serena-sama is Ceres-sama's son. It was a mystery why someone so young would love such a mature woman, but now I understand. It's the saying that 'blood is thicker than water,' isn't it?"
I didn't understand what he was talking about.
"Pope-sama?"
"No, Ceres-sama's fondness for mature women is a well-known tale among the church members! Hero Zect-sama gave up all his childhood friends to Ceres-sama, but what he desired were his mother. To put it negatively, he's fond of mature women, but positively, he prefers older women brimming with maternal instincts! Serena-sama's preference for older women must surely come from Ceres-sama."
"Is that so?"
"Well, I haven't shared this with ordinary folks. Serena-sama has three prospective wives, and Ceres-sama has eight, including Ishtas-sama. Don't you think that's rather few?"
For some reason, I have a bad feeling about this.
"What do you mean?"
"No, it's just that I want to introduce 'women who can become wives' to Serena-sama. Since we have the opportunity, we should select the best mature women from all over the world. Ceres-sama already has four beloved wives, and apart from them, he has married three women from various countries. We would like to introduce prospective wives to Serena-sama."
"Oh..."
"In this case, let's involve the Demon Kingdom as well and introduce the finest mature women. What do you think about holding a 'Beautiful Mature Women Contest'?"
"Pope-sama... Can't we just let him live quietly?"
"I'll make sure it's over with some patience! Ceres-sama had a fun time in Kohane, even leaving for the heavenly realm. I will devote my heart and soul to ensuring Serena-sama can also live happily."
"I see. That puts my mind at ease."
"That's good to hear! From now on, please continue reporting only to me about Serena-sama. You don't need to report to the Eight Popes. If anyone asks, just say 'Pope-sama,' or mention my name. Is that clear?"
"Understood."
Being the Pope, it should be fine, right?
Hello, we have a new project about someone who has returned from an isekai. The main character is a hero who has defeated the Demon Lord. However, for some reason, the human-demon war has resumed and will take place in the MC's original world. The MC, unaware of this, meets a Saint from that world and asks them to join the war. But what does the MC say? They refuse. Is it because their love was rejected by the princess when they adventured together in the past or are they simply fed up? And are the MC will join later?
