"You've already made up your mind? No more changes? You really don't want to think it over a bit more?"
"Mm, yes, this is fine as it is."
"I see…"
The Sun Pope looked at Herbert's resolute expression, shook his head with a sigh, and said, "Herbert, you… I honestly never thought you'd make such a simple request."
At this moment the old Pope's attitude toward Herbert was downright cordial.
If before he'd treated Herbert like an elder looking after a junior, now it was the tone one uses with a friend.
This wasn't some fawning over Herbert's new Saint status, not a case of being cold first and respectful later.
As a former Saint himself, and as the current highest leader of the Sun Church, from any angle you looked at it, the Sun Pope's position was above Herbert's.
He had absolutely no need to bow and scrape to Herbert or deliberately curry favor.
Not to mention, his attitude toward Herbert earlier had already been pretty good.
