When Petelgeuse named the young man as Archbishop, he himself could only put on a smile that threatened to split his face in two. The young man named Subaru stared coldly at Petelgeuse, something the Archbishop of Sloth could not notice, while this happened it was possible to see how the sky had darkened on the outskirts of the palace, the view that could be seen on the window was that of the Royal Capital of Lugunica.
"It's always nice to see you again Pride, especially since I thought you had died fighting the Sword Saint."Petelgeuse said without realizing that he was speaking with less insanity than usual, Archbishop Sloth smiled with a happy smile.
Knowing that the young man in front of him was the cause of the great success the Cult had in their various battles and hearing the news that he had died made Petelgeuse feel sorry for someone as diligent as Pride had died without receiving the Witch's gift.
But seeing him alive meant that Pride somehow survived or even emerged victorious in a fight that not even the other Archbishops were able to survive.
After Petelgeuse said that, "Subaru" looked towards the outskirts of the castle from the throne with a melancholic expression in his eyes, the young man stopped supporting himself with his fists and stood up from the throne, with a resigned snort. the black-haired man walked to one of the windows to take a better look at the gloomy scenery located on the outskirts of the palace.
"Subaru" reaches the nearest window only for the scenery to change to another, instead of a medieval building there is a skyscraper, there is also a house that has a terrace and a car or a strange bicycle, the color of the sky changed from deep red to silver and the clouds changed from a rusty color to dark blue, the scene strangely missed "Subaru", the black-haired youth could only look outside before trying to reach out to try to touch the strange clouds that were in the sky gave Subaru a desperate calm.
The young man's arm continued his journey to a place that looked like heaven to him, something he had long lost, something he hoped would one day recover from, something she knew that no matter how hard she tried, she would never be able to. His arm was stopped by the same boy dressed as the Archbishop, before he sighed and turned his head towards his guest.
"I'm sorry Geuse. I let my imagination fly again, I hope I don't cause you any trouble." The black-haired boy said as he walked away from the window to go towards where Petelgeuse was, the young man looked somewhat annoyed and disappointed.
His eyes were completely dead, if a normal person saw him, he would think that this young man had gone through many traumatic situations.
Petelgeuse watched as the black-haired boy got closer and closer to Petelgeuse, but somehow the green-haired man felt that the black-haired boy was getting farther away rather than getting closer, it was not because of distance, but because of feeling.
He knew that the young man had his own moments, no one knew much about him, aside from the fact that he was completely loyal to Pandora, and sometimes when he felt bad, he said, the witch herself would hug him in her chest to calm him down, Petelgeuse had always wondered if the Sect leader liked his friend.
"Not at all, it doesn't bother me. I'm wondering... Where are the other Archbishops? The leader? The doll girl you have?" Petelgeuse asked as his instincts shouted danger, even so the green-haired man blindly trusted Pride, the time they spent as a team was enough for the green-haired man to regard Pride as the most diligent person of all, no... His whole being was perseverance, there were times when he did not even sleep, he was responsible for killing traitors, doing all that work very much for a simple human like him. But that's what made him Petelgeuse respected.
The "Subaru" reaction to Petelgeuse's words was overwhelming sadness, the boy lowered his head as he stood still, staring at the ground as if it was the most interesting thing in the world... It was not as if it was the only important thing to do, the young man dressed as the Archbishop stood there as he began to clench his fists helplessly.
"Emera...Louise...Pandoras...Priscilla"
Petelgeuse heard that and feeling curious about the way his friend called out those names, having a touch of regret in his tone, the young man stopped looking at the ground and returned his gaze to Petelgeuse, the sharp gaze that he took. felt that something was wrong .. There was something very wrong, this whole situation was strange not to say extraordinary, that was, the entire atmosphere was something that seemed to have been made a long time ago, it was more like a memory than the present, which made Petelgeuse feel for the first time in a long time, he said, a sword pierced through his spine, a deadly chill that could even make the brain of the crazy green-haired man freeze from fear.
"...2649..."
Said the black-haired young man while standing in front of Petelgeuse, the green-haired man was afraid to hear that series of numbers, at the moment he felt that something was dragging him to the ground, some drowned him without even drowning him, it was as if gravity was tying him in place, "Subaru" smiled as he watched the green-haired man desperately trying to escape from the gravity prison he had created, saying, his smile showed that he was enjoying Petelgeuse's failed efforts. From his Melancholic Authority, his gravitational force was unlike that of arrogant Hector, it was much stronger, showing that he was able to withstand the Volcanica Dragon and the Astrea Reid, respectively, together with Reinhard in the same place for days until "Subaru" survives.
"How many times have I tried to save them, how many times have I failed, how many times have I seen them die..."
"Stop! I still haven't accepted her love...!"
"And how many times have I come back from the dead" When Subaru said that, the place was filled with shadows, as a series of hands reaching for Petelgeuse left the Archbishop of Sloth motionless.
"After everything I've done for you!" Will you throw me away like nothing?! Witch-sama! Why?!" Petelgeuse shouted desperately in an attempt to stop Satella throwing him out of the place, the Sloth Archbishop was getting weaker, so the last thing he could hear was Pride saying.
"This is a punishment for trying to rob an Embodiment of Seizure, Geuse"
