The silence was suffocating. Even the paladins no longer had the presence of mind to continue pressing Leonel. They could all only wait for Pope Margrave's response.
"… You're a very intelligent boy." Pope Margrave finally said.
Margrave's face practically read like 'I know you're spewing bullshit, but I like it'.
When Spirit Pressure reaches a certain level, it becomes capable of forming many elements. Of course, the efficiency to which it's done is far less than one's main element, but this is true nonetheless.
How could Margrave believe that Leonel took a minute to form a mere One Star Apprentice Art? That was nothing but bullshit.
But, despite the fact it was bullshit, it was bullshit the Pope happened to like. As long as Leonel continued to be this 'intelligent', there wouldn't have to be any problems between them.
