The next morning, the Church of Light's ultimatum was entered into the incoming dispatch ledger of the Mayor's Office, ordinal number four hundred and nine, recorded by secretary Ivy.
Finishing recording, the little girl hugged both the ledger and the paper going up to the meeting room, reading it out loud for everyone to hear.
The Church demanded Lyra city to hand over the person claiming himself Holy Son to bring back to the Royal Capital for trial. Demanded opening all city gates for the inspection delegation to enter searching any place they wanted. Demanded abolishing the so-called Covenant, because a land region of the kingdom was not allowed to have separate laws. Demanded dismissing entirely all non-human people currently holding jobs in the administrative apparatus. Finally was an atonement money amount, the number written in words, long to the point Brian had to mentally calculate twice to get it.
The deadline the Church gave Lyra was three days.
