At the same time, the main headquarter of the Holy Path Church―<Vatican life sphere>, there, the pope, Innocentius, was being told of the failure of Alfaro in his duty by the president of America, Joseph.
“Is that so? So Alfaro failed.”
It was a dim room. Inside the silence there was only the systematic sound of electro-cardiogram resounding.
The heavy voice of Innocentius that was receiving the phone call reverberated.
But, there was no tone of particular dejection in his voice.
As if he didn’t expect anything from it since the beginning.
“Then? Is that guy dead?”
{No, his consciousness hasn’t returned, but for the moment he lives. Right now he is receiving treatment in a hospital that is financed by the <Holy Path Church> inside the <Tokyo life sphere>. It seems that currently there is no prospect of him regaining consciousness, but…}
“I don’t mind if the recovery of his body is finished already. Transfer him right now to the government hospital of <Detroit life sphere>. …With that all the necessary factors for the <One Year Plan> are set in place.”
{I understand. Well then, take care―}
Cutting the transmission with that exchange, Innocentius stored the mobile phone back into his sleeve.
And then, while making an evil smile on his wrinkled face,
“[Fairy race] huh. They really came in at a convenient time.”
Inside the darkness, he looked up at that which was faintly emitting light.
It was a cylinder shaped tank emitting faint green light like a firefly.
Inside it… a naked young boy possessing a pair of wings with his eyes closed floated there.
“Miraculously, just at the same time when the last adjustment was finished, all the conditions were put in good order. ―Undoubtedly all of this is also the will of our great lord.”
And then as if to respond to that whisper, the boy floating inside the water tank opened his eyelids.
Inside the green colored light, two eyes shined blue brilliantly.
Staring at that, Innocentius blessed his awakening with a whispering voice.
“Good morning. …Our <Messiah>.”
