Part 12

The sudden appearance of Shiba was enough to change the air of the place.

Toujou Basara felt that the ceremonial hall is now enveloped in an inevitable tension.

That was how strong the presence of this young man, Shiba Kyoichi.

At this tense air that would make anyone hold their breath, “…Why are you here”

Celis, obviously tense, asked Shiba,

“As per Kyoichi’s words, regarded hearing officer… This is the insurance we have to deter Basara’s group”

It was not Shiba, but Atsuta who answered in his place. At those words, “What kind of foolish words? More than anything, using this man… Even if you can control poison with poison, there has to be another way”

As Celis voiced to the elders, “Poison, how cruel… Don’t you think so Basara?”

Shiba who shrugged his shoulder, asked for affirmation from him. But, “….”

Basara, without replying with anything, thought of one thing.

…As expected it’s Shiba-san

Just as one of the elders Kumano, had said to Celis’ criticism earlier. That they should be properly open regarding the Vatican’s concern that they are unable to deter Basara well enough. Due to the speed of the talk, that matter was left where it was – but when he heard that proclamation, Basara had thought of the possibility that the elders would use Shiba as a trump card. However, even if he had that preparation, with this confrontation once more, just letting one’s wander for a little bit would cause one to be crushed in an unfamiliar eerie pressure.

…For Shiba-san to appear in this timing…

Thinking of the meaning of that send shivers down Basara’s spine. Having been read the secret letter by Takigawa, they had a reversal on the assertion of the Vatican as stated by Celis. However, with Shiba’s appearance it is not possible to properly respond.

– Shiba should normally be shut up in prison. And then, the elders have not moved since the start of the meeting. They did not make any movements to indicate for Shiba to appear. Of course, the possibility of them using a spiritual power to instruct for Shiba to appear through a super secret back door without anyone realizing is not zero but,

…

It’s not that.

No matter how much Celis pressed the village, the elder did not seem trapped, like they still afford some room somewhere. In that case, there’s most likely just one answer – Shiba was let out of prison in advance, in preparation for this meeting.

…That means.

The problem was, the timing for when they judged Shiba should appear. Was it at the point Basara’s group had decided to go home, or was it during the time the hearing officers came from the Vatican, or perhaps at the special envoy from the demon world, Takigawa – Who was this risky existence called Shiba is being used as a trump card against becomes the focus.

They had heard from Shuuya that the interference of the << Vatican >> is putting the elders on the edge. If that is to be believed, then there’s a high probability for this to be a measure against the << Vatican’s >> internal affairs.
