Sheeb Order
(Thank you for reading at bayabuscotranslation.com)
When Casablanca entered the house, a family member who had been secretly meeting with Hanna was being dragged out by the guards, bound.
“Well then. You are the leader of the Sheeb Order, correct?” (Casablanca)
“I-I have no idea what you are talking about.” (Family Member)
The man from the family responded with a bewildered expression.
He was desperately pretending to be oblivious, but having been caught at the scene of the secret meeting with Hanna made it quite difficult. He was an average-built man.
If you passed him on the street, he would likely leave no lasting impression. It would be hard to believe that such a man was engaged in espionage.
“Papa?” (Daughter)
“You? What happened?” (Wife)
The lights in the house turned on, and the wife and daughter cautiously peeked out. They must have woken up from the noise.
“No, it’s nothing. You two should return to your rooms.” (Man)
The man spoke gently to the two of them.
“It seems your wife and daughter do not know your true nature.” (Casablanca)
The two were truly frightened. While they appeared to be confused on the surface, their voices and eyes were completely unfazed, in stark contrast to the man.
“I have no true nature or anything…” (Man)
“Listen, leader. I have no intention of capturing you. I am here to propose a deal.” (Casablanca)
Ignoring the man who still refused to acknowledge, Casablanca got straight to the point.
“The reason the Sheeb Order follows the Warden Household is that only the Warden Household accepted you heretics, right?” (Casablanca)
“I have no idea what you are talking about.” (Man)
Casablanca continued.
“Then, I will accept you as well. I will issue a decree throughout the kingdom, ordering the acceptance of the Sheeb Order. Of course, there will be backlash from the holy teaching believers, but the head of the church, Zenon, is my pawn. I can suppress it however I wish. Even if society absolutely refuses to accept you, I will take responsibility to protect the Sheeb Order. I am a queen. I have the means to support several thousand heretics.” (Casablanca)
“…” (Man)
“If I break my promise, feel free to take this head of mine. Given your covert group, that should be a simple task, right?” (Casablanca)
The Sheeb Order had faced discrimination for many years simply because they were heretics. Thus, they had developed the ability to survive in the shadows and had received protection from the Warden Household, who valued their stealth abilities. In other words, if the royal family decides to protect the church, then there would be no reason for them to follow the Warden Household.
“What must we do?” (Man)
The man, who had been silently listening to the conversation, suddenly transformed. His earlier act of confusion now seemed comical in contrast to his emotionless face.
“I’m glad the conversation is moving quickly.” (Casablanca)
Casablanca smiled slyly.
Whether it be the merchant Arc or the warrior Tyr, The foundation of the Warden Household’s strength lies in the speed and accuracy of information transmission. Now that they had brought down the Sheeb Order, which had been responsible for that, it could be said that their military strength had been halved.
“We have been cared for by the Warden Household for generations. Even though we are covert operatives, we will not easily betray you.” (Man)
“Indeed. There is no need to betray. Just…” (Casablanca)
“Just?” (Man)
“For the next 10 days, you must close your eyes, ears, and mouth. See nothing, hear nothing, say nothing.” (Casablanca)
For ten days. If they do nothing for 10 days, the church could gain eternal rights in the Laplace Kingdom. This was an excessively advantageous proposition. It also indicated how serious Casablanca was about this.
Thus, the Sheeb Order, which had been stationed in the royal capital under the watch of the Warden Household, ceased its activities.
