"Please come in."

Lance opened the door and walked into Pope Gaius's room. Gaius took a glance at Lance then turned to Istial, who is standing beside him.

"Why is Lance asking to meet me?" Gaius whispered to Istial. "Is he okay?"

"I don't know his intentions, Pope Gaius. But it must be related to his child's curse examination."

"Curse examination?"

Suddenly, Lance dropped onto the floor and kneeled to the ground. Upon seeing this, he immediately jumped out of his chair out of shock.

"Please help me, Pope Gaius you have to help me!" Lance begged. "I came here just to ask you for help! Please!"

Pope Gaius panicked when Lance did this. At first, he didn't expect much from him when he heard that Lance wanted to talk to him, he wasn't expecting this.

"L-Lance! As the pope I wish you to stop kneeling!" Gaius said as he convinces Lance to stop kneeling. "If you have any request from me just ask!"

Lance persisted in kneeling even though Pope Gaius is against it.

"Pope Gaius, It's happening again," Lance said. "The same thing is happening again."

"What?" Gaius said as he was confused about what Lance is referring to. "What do you mean?"

"Do you remember the case that happened 3 years ago?" Lance said. "The ones about the child holding a man hostage for 2 years?"

"Do you mean the case that happened in 535?" Gaius asked.

"Yes, and it's happening again, this Psycian child called Alex, has been holding me hostage. Just like the ones in the article."

"A-are you sure?" Gaius said as he couldn't believe what Lance is saying. "Do you have any evidence, sir?"

"It's true Pope Gaius," Istial said. "The child that Lance was referring to is indeed a psycian, we even had blood samples."

"Is that true?" Gaius said as he fell back into his chair, rubbing his head to process what just happened. "It's happening again, isn't it? Psycia is striking back again."

"Yes," Lance confirmed as he stood back up. "This one isn't the sharpest tool in the shed, he left evidence of him being Psycian without realizing it. But Pope Gaius, you'll have to help me with this one. I have a plan. Please."

"What is it then?"

Lance smiled and left out a sigh of relief as his plan is working, he felt that all his worries that are on his back were gone as he continued to lie to Pope Gaius and Istial.

"Finally, I'm free." Lance thought. "No more Alex, no more worries."
