Chapter 39
Chapter 36 The Saint and the Devil (End)
“…If you don’t believe what I said, I can’t help it.” Lily’s attitude is gentle and tough. She does intend to sacrifice herself, but she is not humble enough to prove her sincerity, let alone say that she is the four great magicians. First, as a former noble lady, she could not make such a humble posture.
The bishop’s eyes are complicated but kind, “I believe in your sincerity, but I have to report this matter to the Pope. Please forgive me for not being able to call the shots.”
The specific location of the relic of the gods is only known to the past popes. This enchantress is willing to sacrifice himself, but it is of great importance, and it is not easy for him to decide by the archbishop or the saint.
Thea’s mind is in a mess, if the Pope agrees, then Lily will really…
She couldn’t help looking at Lily, her azure blue eyes full of complicated worry.
Lily nodded, “When you think about it, come to the Maier Tavern to find me.” She looked at Thea and smiled, then turned and disappeared into the temple.
This scene made the bishop’s heart more complicated.
That night, Lily, who settled down in the Maier’s Tavern, welcomed the unexpected guest, Thea.
Thea has never been in this kind of occasion, worrying about causing unnecessary trouble, and thea deliberately put on a black hood, wrapped tightly all over her body, but a strand of light golden hair on her shoulders accidentally leaked out.
Various characters will always appear in the tavern, ranging from elegant and powerful noble knights to notorious fugitives. Everyone is accustomed to such dark people.
As soon as she stepped into this place, Thea’s eyebrows wrinkled.
The smell here is really unpleasant, there is a strong smell of alcohol mixed with the smell of various foods, and the smell of sweat on the alcoholic body, which is a bit unbearable for Thea.
Thea held her breath and scanned the lobby, but couldn’t find the black-haired and green-eyed girl.
Just as Thea was thinking about how to find the other party, someone grabbed her arm and pulled her out. Thea turned her head and wanted to pull her hand away, so she faced a pair of smiling green eyes.
Thea was startled, and when she recovered, she had been taken to the roof of the tavern by Lily.
Lily sat on the roof with her hands behind her, her posture was casual but unspeakably good-looking, “The temple has decided to cooperate with me?”
Thea sat down next to her in a ghostly manner, and she recovered her senses when she heard this, her tone was a little worried, “You really want to do this?”
Lily looked at her and sighed lightly, “Of course, I’m so unreliable?”
Thea was a little excited, “But if that’s the case, you just—”
“Hush…” Lily made a hush gesture, with a gentle expression, “Thea is caring for me? A demon?”
Thea who was poked in the center was panicked, she looked away, “No, I just don’t understand what you think.”
“Didn’t I say it?” Lily didn’t insist on her stiff mouth. “Embrace the light, even for a moment.”
Thea’s heart sank. For the first time, she let go of her prejudice against the devil in more than ten years and faced the demon who had deceived her.
Lily looked up at the bright moon hanging high in the night, “In fact, it’s not just that, I also want freedom.”
“Freedom?” Thea had never heard about the devil, and she didn’t understand it.
Lily smiled at her, “He gave me the power to make me a demon, but my life and death are controlled by him, and if I don’t obey his instructions, I will die.”
“I can’t choose to be a demon, but I can choose to die in the light.”
Thea suffocated her breath, a slight pain in her heart, and a faint mist of water filled her eyes.
When Lily met the demon monarch in despair, if she met a temple knight, that would not be the case.
Seeing Thea’s pitying gaze, Lily still had a slight smile on her face, “After becoming Gorris, I saw too many dirty desires. I was used to devouring desires, and gradually forgot that I used to be too. Humanity.”
“But you are different.” Lily’s eyes lit up suddenly, “Thea’s desires are so cute.”
“do not talk!”
This weird compliment made Thea’s cheeks warm, and scenes of dreams appeared in her mind.
After only sweetness and anticipation, Thea’s heart was filled with more sadness and sorrow.
If the Pope agrees to this behavior, Lily will be gone.
Thea suddenly wanted her not to do this, even if Gerliss was a powerful demon.
But she can’t say such things, she is a believer in the Temple of Light, and a saint of the Temple, how can she stop the devil from yearning for the light.
Thea was shaken by her identity for the first time.
Seeing Thea lowered her eyes, Lily said, “Actually, I hope Thea can do me a favor.”
This sentence made Thea break free from her emotions. She let go of the thoughts she shouldn’t have, took a deep breath, and tried to make herself look more natural, “You said, you want me to do it.”
“Of course you can do it.” Lily blinked playfully. “I read many records about demons in the Temple Library, which are not realistic. Thea has to help me change Gerliss’ record.”
Thea remembered what she had seen in the library about Gerliss, her white cheeks flushed red, and she answered vaguely.
Lily was helpless and confused. “The devil feeds on human desires. Will Thea kiss a fish?”
Thea’s pretty face turned red. She shook her head quickly, suddenly remembering those with demon blood, and retorted doubtfully: “There are many people with demon blood in Kolambasa. If it’s like you said, How can there be demon blood?”
Lily was taken aback and stretched out her hands helplessly, “It turns out that there are such unspecial demons, then I don’t know.”
Thea pursed her lips, her heart was relieved, and she was even faintly divided.
Lily really wasn’t that kind of dirty demon.
But the more she felt that Lily was good, and the thought that she would lose her soul, Thea felt more depressed.
Sensibly aware of Thea’s emotional changes, Lily pretended to be ignorant, “I’m sorry to cheat you before.”
Thea used to apologize to Lily. After hearing Lily’s apology, Thea had the urge to cry. She tried to suppress the tumbling emotions in her heart. She wanted to hug Lily, but she still held it back. Thea shook her head, “It’s okay, I’m glad to meet you.”
Lily smiled slightly, “Me too.”
The bright and bright moon was behind Lily, and the silver-white moonlight coated Lily with a soft and beautiful light. Those green eyes were better than the most precious gems.
Thea felt that she might never forget this night for the rest of her life.
————————————-
After learning what Gorliss said, the pope met Gorliss in person. No one knew what they said that day. After the pope came out, he announced that he would cooperate with Gorliss to open up the seal of the relics of God. .
This result was expected by Thea, which was undoubtedly a harmless good thing for Baili, but it could not make her feel happy.
If other demon did this, she would sincerely thank this demon for his choice, but it was Lily.
She even gave birth to a secret hope that if Lily tricked them to open the seal, maybe she would feel better.
Thea wanted to see Lily again, but the top priority now was to reinforce the seal. After the pope announced the news, Lily set off for the ruins of the gods.
Seeing Lily and the Pope disappear in the temple, Thea realized that that night was the last time she and Lily spoke.
The great sadness almost overwhelmed her. Thea pinched the jewel that hung on her chest. The emerald jewel seemed to have gilt flowing. It was the jewel given to her by Lily. After returning from the tavern, this jewel replaced the holy. The stone hung in her heart.
The archbishop of the Neil City Temple found Thea’s face was pale, “Thea, your face is not very good, go to the priest’s to see.”
The unsaved Thea seemed to be awake. She noticed that the bishops were waiting for news. The emotions in her heart could no longer be suppressed. She nodded indiscriminately, and even forgot the basic etiquette, and ran out in a hurry.
Seeing her flustered and unsteady steps, the archbishop sighed deeply, and the bishop beside him asked him what was wrong, but he shook his head and said nothing.
Thea didn’t go to the priest. She ran back to the room and saw the cloak spread out on the bed. Tears couldn’t stop streaming.
At least for now, she doesn’t want to suppress her heart.
Thea buried her cloak on the bed and cried for a long time. Suddenly she felt a strong wave of magic coming from behind. At that moment, she didn’t want to make senseless cover-ups. Thea wiped the tears on her face with her hand, who originally thought it was. The priest came in to look for her, but was startled when he looked up.
Lily’s smile was particularly bright, “Is Thea crying for me?”
The moment she saw Lily, Thea thought that Lily had deceived everyone, but she couldn’t restrain herself from rushing towards Lily, but she rushed into the air and almost fell to the ground.
Thea noticed that Lily’s body was a bit transparent, her face was pale, and her beautiful green eyes had lost the bright luster of the past, and her body was filled with a powerful and majestic sacred breath.
Thea realized something, crystal tears rolled down.
“Don’t cry.” Lily wanted to wipe her tears away, but her soul couldn’t bear the baptism of divine power at all. If she hadn’t been forced to see Thea for the last time, she would have been so soulless, how could she still touch Thea’s face. .
“You…” Thea wanted to touch Lily’s face, but her hand quickly passed through Lily’s body, and even a slight tingling pain came from her palm.
Even she, who has a high affinity for the Holy Light, feels tingling, let alone Lily.
Lily can only pull the corners of her mouth, open her hands to vacantly encircle Thea, leaning on Thea’s shoulder, and whispered: “Actually, the light I want to embrace is you.”
Thea’s heart trembled, she wanted to say something, but Lily’s body suddenly emitted a dazzling light, and Lily’s silhouette gradually disappeared in the light.
Lily is dead, she completed the seal.
…
The Anchor of God, who reinvigorated the divine power, once again sealed the abyss, which made the temple breathe a sigh of relief. In order to thank Gerliss for her sacrifice, the pope proposed to build a sculpture for Gerliss to stand in the main hall of the holy mountain. Obtained the unanimous approval of the bishop of the temple.
In addition, the pope also asked to revise the record of Gerliss, and this time the writer was Thea.
After getting this task, Thea didn’t say anything, but the archbishop wanted to help her get rid of this task.
Thea refused the favor of the archbishop and went to the library to collect all the books about Gerlis.
“Do you need anything else?”
Father Uma raised his voice.
Thea, who looked at the lower corner of the window lattice in a trance, finally recovered. She looked at the stack of books that Father Uma had brought out, and shook her head, “Nothing, thank you.”
After Father Uma left, Thea held the book and moved under the window mullions inlaid with tranquil gems, which was Lily’s favorite position.
“Gorris, one of the four great enchantresses under the demon lord…”
…
Looking at the familiar library in front of her, Thea opened the door and walked in. She smiled and greeted Father Uma at the door, and then walked briskly towards the familiar corner.
Under the window mullions studded with tranquil gems, a black-haired girl is sitting there with a book in her hand, looking quietly.
Seemingly hearing the sound of footsteps, the girl looked up, her green eyes were clear in the sunlight, “Why come here so late? Didn’t you ask me if you have any questions?”
…
A breeze blew in through the window, brushing the ends of Thea’s light blonde hair, her head drooping motionless, the book fell from the slender and white fingers to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Father Uma, who was sorting the bookshelf, heard the sound and walked over. He saw Thea who was asleep against the wall. He picked up the book and put it on the table. He placed the blanket on her and closed the window gently.
And the alexandrite hidden under the placket of Thea was emitting a soft light.
“The mission to save Bai Yueguang in “The Favor of God” is 100% complete”
“In the process of copying, the soul is about to be withdrawn”
“10, 9, 8…3, 2, 1”
“No. 930 will be returned to the women’s matching department, please wait.”
