Volume 10 Chapter 1 Part 6

Theo must have known from the beginning that this was the only way. But he couldn’t bring himself to say it. That, and he doesn’t want to put Priscilla in danger. Siluca feels the same way. However, there is no other way to avoid fighting, and this is something only Priscilla can do.

「I know that. But I still want to go nonetheless. 」

Siluca then advised Theo.

「What we want Archbishop Priscilla to do it to persuade not the Pope, but the believers who have gathered to participate in the holy war under his call. If they hear the words of Farnese’s Holy Grail, they will surely change their mind and their resolve to serve the pope might falter, but I’m sure that none of them really want to fight against the Emperor’s army, since they should all know that they won’t stand a chance in a direct confrontation against us.
