As a Communication Crystal transferred the message, Luke sighed with relief as he got confirmation from Plato about Antonio and how he would be dealt. He thought, "It seems they are finally thinking with their brains and not muscles. I guess Lord Irmela's Oracle too might have an effect on them and hence they are becoming cautious of the Radiant Church. During the last Oracle, they created havoc and also assassinated the king. I guess this time, their spear will turn towards Lord John so we are safe for a while but they will eventually turn their spear towards us as well as they would try to rule us. It seems the Gods are finally going to move and this might have nerved the King. I better go and meet Taylor already, who knows if he changes his mind on the deal. Those elders will blame me if the deal isn't successful and they don't get those mana restoring pills."

After finally being able to arrange a meeting with Taylor. both immediately got down to business.
