Volume 1 Ascension Conference Chapter 31: There is no way to mature

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

    It was another sunny morning. Saint Marina of the Holy Light Sect got up early. After washing, she began her regular prayers.

    After breakfast, she asked the servant to tidy up the room carefully and decorate the flowers and plants in the courtyard.  Then he waited quietly at the door, waiting for the two enthusiastic girls to arrive.

    Not long after, a brilliant rainbow came into view in the distance, followed by a string of sweet and crisp smiles.

    Marina raised the corners of her mouth slightly.  Hearing that familiar voice always makes people feel happy unconsciously.

    The Kyushu girl Liulixian has such magical power.  Next to Liulician, Bai Shixuan was always so elegant and comfortable. Seeing her, the faint uneasiness in Marina's heart disappeared.

    According to the request of Archbishop Rowan, Marina can no longer meet with them, but Marina believes that things must always start well and end well. After all, neither party has done anything wrong. Even if they do not meet again, they must say goodbye beforehand.

    ¡°As for the time to say goodbyejust follow one day.  Then explain the teachings of Holy Light to them one last time, and then say goodbye forever.  Marina faced her heart calmly and made a decision.

    "Aunt Marina, we have already thought carefully about the problem last time"

    When they met, Liulixian got straight to the point straightforwardly.  But Marina smiled and shook her head: "We'll talk about that later. Today we have to finish the rest of the teachings."

    "Have you finished telling all? The content is a bit tense." Bai Shixuan was a little confused, "Did something happen?"

    Marina marveled at the other party's acumen, but denied it: "Nothing, I just think that with your understanding, you can learn faster."

    "Uh, okay."

    The time for explaining the teachings passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, the sun was setting again, and the half-day course came to an end.

    "Ah, I have gained a lot today." Liulixian stretched, "By the way, about joining the church"

    Marina interrupted lightly: "Before that, I also have something to tell you"

    However, before he finished speaking, a servant's frightened voice suddenly came from outside: "You can't go in, the Holy Lady is now"

    "Go away"

    The rough roar and the servant¡¯s groan of pain came at the same time, surprising Marina.

    Who dares to be rude in the territory of Dragon City Cathedral?  Breaking into the Saint's residence without permission is a serious challenge to the majesty of the Holy Light Church. There should be no one on the land of Bretonia who has such courage.

    After a while, seven or eight people barged in. They had different looks and sinister auras. They wore a unified emblem on their chests, which was a golden lightning bolt.

    "Judgement?" Marina's expression changed when she saw the shape of the emblem, "How could it be a tribunal?

    The Inquisition, as its name suggests, is the institution used by the Holy Light Religion to punish heretics. It is an elite force controlled by the Church. It is radical, powerful, and notorious.  They are fanatical believers of the Holy Light Religion. In order to spread their faith and eliminate dissidents, they dare to kill anyone.  And the wars and bloodshed caused by them are countless.

    However, in Dragon City, perhaps due to the suppression of Dragon City guards, the work of the tribunal has tended to be low-key over the years, and Marina has very little contact with them.  But he didn't expect that they would suddenly appear in front of him at this time

    "What do you want? Even if it's a court, you can't break into my house at will, right?"

    Marina didn¡¯t like to use her status to oppress others, but seeing that the other party had bad intentions and even injured her servant, her face became gloomy.

    The leader of the tribunal was a tall knight.  Seeing the saint of the church, he had to stop first, but there was no respect in his expression. He said lightly: "I received a reliable report that the two women here were sent by Kyushu heretics.  Spies need to be investigated by the tribunal immediately.

    "Spies?" Marina's eyes widened, "That's ridiculous. They are Dragon City guards who have gone through strict examinations. You call them spies?"

    The knight in the tribunal was a little impatient: "This matter is the decision made by the chief judge. If the saint has any objections, just talk to the chief judge."

    Marina said angrily: "Then let your chief referee come and tell me personally that you want to take away whoever you want from me. You are too lawless."

    Seeing the resolute determination of the saint, the knight of the inquisition looked uncertain. He just looked at Liulician and Bai Shixuan, and then asked with some evil intentions: "So, you are the two people from Baoding?"

    Marina refused to give in: "I can't let you take them away like this."

    "Oh, I understand." The knight nodded, and then said to his companions behind him, "I'm sure, the saint is their accomplice, let's do it."

      "You?" Marina was shocked and angry, and immediately released a pale golden shield of holy light, trying to keep out everyone in the tribunal.  Although she does not know combat skills, as a saint, she has abilities comparable to those of high-level professionals.  Although this shield is activated hastily, its defensive power is no less than that of a thick city wall, and it cannot be shaken even by direct artillery fire.

    However, the knight of the Inquisition was not mediocre either. As he spoke, he pulled out a bloody heavy sword with overwhelming murderous intent, and struck the shield with one strike, causing it to collapse.

    At the same time, the rest of the tribunal also took action.  Before they set off, they anticipated that there might be a conflict with the Saint. Everything was prepared in advance. A divine priest released golden lightning. This highly targeted spell instantly shattered the shield. Marina  She felt that the holy light in her mind suddenly boiled and heated up, causing her orifices to bleed and she was unable to move.

    Taking advantage of this opportunity, two quick-moving judges quickly stepped forward, restrained Liulician and Bai Shixuan, tied them with a golden chain, and then summoned a steel cage to lock the two inside.

    "You guys, don't go too far." Marina stretched out her hand to wipe the blood from her face, and the majestic power of holy light fell from the sky and poured into her body.

    The face of the Inquisition Knight changed drastically: "The Holy Light is coming? Are you desperate? Are you crazy?"

    No matter how bad the saint is at fighting, she is still a high-level professional, and the power she can unleash at the risk of her life is astonishing.  Although everyone in the Inquisition was good at fighting, they had not actually crossed the high-level threshold. At this time, they were all shocked by Marina's amazing power.

    And at this moment, the door to the homestead suddenly opened, revealing a curious and slightly frightened little head.

    ¡°Mom, what¡¯s going on outside?¡±

    Marina¡¯s expression changed: ¡°Ellen, don¡¯t come out.¡±

    The knight of the Inquisition was startled for a moment, and then laughed ferociously: "My Lady Saint, please accept your magical powers. I don't think any of us want to see that scene happen, right?"

    "Youyou used my daughter to threaten me?"

    "I don't want to threaten anyone. We are here just to follow orders, but please don't make it too difficult for us."

    "Despicable and shameless" Marina's mouth was bloodshot, and her gums were broken by anger.

    "Haha." The knight of the Inquisition sneered, "Yes, it is despicable and shameless. The glory belongs to the saint, but the despicableness belongs to us."

    While speaking, the two judges took the steel cage containing Liu Lixian and Bai Shixuan into their hands, and the people in the court immediately withdrew outside.

    Before leaving the house, the Knight of the Inquisition turned around and said jokingly: "Goodbye, Holy Lady."

    Marina lowered her head, but did not take that step after all.  She couldn't let her daughter take risks with her.

    But deep down in her heart, she wished she could let this incompetent and cowardly self die.

    At this time, there is only one person who can help him.

    "Oh, I told you not to meet again, but you didn't listen, what will be the result?"

    When he saw Marina with blood still on her face, Archbishop Rowan sighed deeply.

    Marina¡¯s eyes were red: ¡°They are innocent¡±

    Luo Wan said: "Of course I know, otherwise how could I tolerate them entering the church many times?"

    Marina added: "They ran away from the military camp because they trusted me. If it weren't for me, they would have stayed in the military camp and had Bedivere's protection, and they would never have been arrested like this by the people of the Inquisition."

    Luo Wan sighed: "I know you blame yourself. You are indeed responsible for this matter, but what can you do now? The person has been arrested, are you going to the tribunal to save him?"

    Marina said: "If there is no better way this is the only way. I can't just let it go."

    "Absurd" Luo Wan was furious, "You are such a big man, don't be too willful. Do you think the tribunal is a place where you can go wherever you want?"

    Marina suddenly smiled: "Are you willful? They are just two innocent children. Saving innocent people, does this count as being willful on my part?"

    "This world is not as simple as black and white"

    Marina refused to give in: "But we are the Holy Light Religion, the spokesperson of the Holy Light. If we can't distinguish between black and white, what will the world be like?"

    "Enough of these strong words. I think you need to calm down, so go to the quiet room and be quiet for a while."

    The archbishop waved his hand, opened a dark portal, and directly sucked Marina in.

    "Come back to me after you calm down."

    Behind the portal is a dark, small room with no sound or light.

    That is a quiet room located hundreds of meters underground in the cathedral, a place where priests use to calm down when they are upset.  In silenceThere is only absolute silence in the world, which allows people to see their own hearts more clearly.

    Being teleported here by the archbishop, Marina's body trembled when she felt the damp coldness, and her heated mind also cooled down.

    Well, if you think about it carefully, what the Archbishop said is actually correct.  Although Liulician and Bai Shixuan are innocent, the tribunal has already arrested them, what else can they do?  Breaking into the court?  That will only make the situation more passive.

    A mature person should know how to accept reality.  You can make unlimited efforts before the result comes, but when the result appears, you must also learn to accept it.

    Unfortunately, she was probably destined not to mature. From the moment the Archbishop awarded her the emblem of the Saint, and from the moment she vowed to spend her whole life spreading the Holy Light, rain or shine, it was destined that she would not be as mature as others.

    It is impossible to unscrupulously spread idle rumors, it is impossible to go against one's heart for the sake of the so-called future, and it is even more impossible to turn a blind eye to the injustice that is happening in front of you.

    "I'm sorry, Archbishop Luo Wan, Imay have to disappoint you after all."

    Marina silently took out a ring from the inner pocket of her clothes, which was a gift given to her by Bedivere a long time ago.  An extremely precious teleportation ring, as long as the magic on the ring is activated, one can instantly move to the other person's side. Unfortunately, the relationship between the two broke down soon, and she never used it again after that.

    Now, let¡¯s use your strength

    The woman rubbed the surface of the ring, and the next moment, strange fluctuations spread, the space distorted, and Marina's figure disappeared.

    At the same time, in the prison of the tribunal.

    "Sister Bai, I feel so bored." Liulician looked at the shackles on her hands and feet, "Senior brother asked us to pretend to be arrested, but how long can we keep pretending? I'm already hungry  "

    Bai Shixuan smiled faintly. Even though she was in a cage at this time, she still maintained her calm demeanor: "Senior brother said that someone will come to rescue us soon. We can just rush out after that. Just wait patiently."

    Liulician lowered her shoulders: "Can't I save myself?" As she said that, the secret seal shackles on her wrists broke with a click, and the cross-section was extremely smooth.

    Bai Shixuan smiled and shook her head.

    Liulician looked at her pitifully: "But I'm so hungry."

    Bai Shixuan sighed, shook his head and said, "Senior brother is indeed right. You just can't bear your temper. Here, I'll give this to you."

    While speaking, the shackles on Bai Shixuan's hands naturally fell off, and then there was a finger-sucking original chicken drumstick in her hand.

    "Senior brother said that if you can persist until the inquisition prison before complaining, I will reward you with a chicken drumstick. Please bear with me a little longer."

    "Oh, that's no problem"
