บท 483: [483] The death of the pope!

The news spread like wildfire. Though it didn't reach Stefan, who was sleeping in his room.

James made it spread fast intentionally within the church, and slowly be revealed to the outer areas as well.

It was no longer a secret in mere hours, Everyone, and 'everyone' knew about it. All but one.

Stefan was still sleeping in his room, James had ordered for no one to disturb him, as he needed to make a few preparations beforehand.

It didn't take long for him to be done, Afterwards, he simply told the knight to go inform him of the disaster.

The knight approached his room, and James watched it go. The rest of the church were already in their positions.

The knight entered the room, and shook Stefan in order to wake him up.

[Stefan Caravel POV, Church]

I heard a voice wake me up from my slumber, it was not long before I heard it again.

"Cardinal Stefan."
