Airship

In the end, I chose to go with the Holy Empire group.

It was the sacred relic that won me over in the end.

It wasn't the value of the sacred relic that won me over, but rather the fact that they were willing to give up something of this value.

This was a clear sign that they were already desperate for me to come with them if they were willing to give up something this precious. So if I were to keep rejecting them, there was no telling what they would have been willing to do.

If I've already come to the decision that I would go to the Holy Empire, pushing them too far wasn't a good idea.

Though there were some people that were unhappy that I came to this decision so quickly, they held their tongues and didn't say anything about this decision.

That was how I set off for the Holy Empire.

In a carriage with the priest, I sat in front of the priest who had a smile on his face.
