Capítulo 668: The next Pope

One week later…

"I am honored to have my request granted, Your Majesty."

Aries gazed at the old yet beautiful woman sitting across from her inside the empress's chancery. Marcia Graves was a part of the night council, a Wiccan leader, and also a high priestess of the church. The irony, but she was well-respected. 

Aries already had most of the people's support when she was crowned the empress. But because Marcia Graves, who was said to be the strongest candidate to become the next pope, supported the new empress, Aries's supporters had become solid and so secure that a disparaging rumor wouldn't be enough to shake it.

Of course, that support was not free. Aries simply told Suzanne to stall her some time, and Suzanne managed to stall this private meeting for half a year.
