After being introduced to some of the archbishops, Aldrian was brought to the inner part of the church. As they walked toward one of the halls for a more proper welcome, Aldrian turned to Angelica and said,
"Your Holiness, I believe it would be best for me to examine His Holiness first so I can quickly assess his illness and determine a cure. His condition cannot afford to wait, after all. Perhaps I can even heal him immediately if his illness is one I am already familiar with."
Walking beside him, Angelica nodded in agreement.
"Alright, I will bring you to the Pope's chamber," she said.
A few high-ranking members of the church who followed them also overheard the conversation and felt relieved that the prophesied one would personally examine their leader immediately. However, one among them did not share their enthusiasm.
Cardinal Carsius watched the backs of Aldrian and Angelica, a subtle smile forming on his lips.
