Lucrezia’s face distorted. For a moment, silence engulfed the hall, and seconds later, words came from here and there.

“No way!”

“What nonsense!!”

“Isn’t it supposed to be verified?”

“Let’s hear what the other side has to say about that.”

The hall became noisy in an instant as people clashed with each other, like a daily noisy market.

To put it bluntly, it is a battle between the faction of Princess Vialentel and the faction of Prince Faradiv through the Saints debate.

In the pouring noise, Fiona and Lucrezia faced each other. Lucrezia bit her lip and jumped up from her seat.

“I have no reason to hear that. The High Priest has confirmed about me, and that is not to be shaken by mere words from a commoner.”

“Words from a commoner?”

“Then what? When you say that you are not a Saint, what is left is just a girl with special powers, right?”

Lucrezia raised her chin slightly and put her hands together.

“My position is not light enough to be tested by such a person.”

She looked around her and opened her red lips.

“Besides, aren’t you all being protected from the barrier that I created?”

“That barrier is calling in Bellac.”

When Fiona raised her voice again, the hall was shocked again.

Nina raised her voice.

“It seems that no matter how much we talk, a conclusion will not come, so why not try a simple experiment?”

“What experiment are you talking about?”

Faradiv asked a cold question, and Nina laughed softly.

“Why not let Miss Fiona use her purifying powers in Miss Lucrezia.”

“What good is that?”

“Fiona called Lucrezia the darkness. Maybe it has something to do with Bellac? If that’s the truth she will not be able to endure purification and will reveal her true self.”

“It’s crazy!”

“This is blasphemy!”

“Why is that blasphemy! If it’s really Bellac, it’s a blasphemy to have such a person in the temple!”

“Is there any reason to avoid it?”

The fight started again and Nina watched it leisurely.

‘It’s in our favor either way.’

If Lucrezia avoids it, rumors will circulate about it, and what if she says she will be tested?

Those who take the test are below those who give it.

‘What will you do?’

Nina looked at the High Priest instead of Lucrezia and he was looking back at her with a curious face.

After a moment he tapped the armrest.

Tak!

The High Priest said in a small voice, but everyone became quiet.

“Lucrezia, come here. You too, Miss Fiona, come over.”

Both were meant to come closer to him.

Fiona turned to Nina, and Nina nodded her head. She took the lead and Nina followed right behind. Lucrezia also came with the Leader of the Templars following.

Then, something unexpected happened.

A bright light erupted from Fiona.

“!!”

“What!!”

Nina grabbed Fiona’s shoulder. Her crystal seed, which she had made into a pendant and hung on her attire, flew out of her arms, scattering a multicolored light, glistening in her air.

“Ahhhhhhhhhh!!!”

Lucrezia, touched by the light, screamed, covered her face, and fell to the floor.

Nina wrapped her arms around Fiona and looked at the High Priest. When their eyes met, his mouth shook.

‘He is…happy?’

Nina frowned and wondered what the motive was.

In an instant, the seed crystal filled the entire venue with bright light like lightning, and then exploded into powder.

“Uh uh… uh uh-.”

Lucrezia, lying on the floor, groaned.

Silence enveloped everyone, and one of the priests said.

“T-The Saint-.”

But before he could finish, someone shouted out.

“My wound is healed!”

“What? Huh?”

At those words, the sound of people checking their condition went up from here and there.

“My knee is healed!”

The old nobleman jumped up from his seat.

“Me too, my cuts from this morning are healed!”

There were exclamations of wounds being healed all over the place. Fiona turned to Nina with an astonished face.

‘You didn’t do it yourself.’

Nina thought so and grabbed her hand tightly. Fiona hooked her breath to regain her calm.

The atmosphere inside the temple was extremely strange. If Lucrezia was tormented by light alone, it could be seen as being attacked. But those who received the light were healed. Even those who were not sick or injured suddenly felt lighter, their eyes cleared, and their minds were sharper.

The light was warm and pleasant, and they would like to enjoy it forever if possible. The light of life and healing was known through firsthand experience as everyone in the hall received it.

Still, if it had only had a warming effect, they would have opened their mouths to accuse of a planned attack on Saint Lucrezia.

But there were people whose wounds were cured and people whose illness was cured.

But the Saint who received the light struggled in pain, alone.

“What is this…”

Embarrassing words flowed even among the Vialentel factions. They had no idea that the Saint was a fake.

“Everyone step back.”

At Fiona’s words, everyone’s eyes quickly turned to Fiona.

“Oh oh-.”

“Oh my god-.”

Light powder was twinkling around her.

Nina called Winter to make small crystals, and it was a powder of light made by shining it with the Sun.

Fiona, clad in dazzling light, looked around her and said.

“It’s dangerous, so please step back.”

“You…you……..!”

Lucrezia got her wobbly body up. Her eyes had turned red and scales were sprouting. Gasp and break swallowing noises erupted all over the place.

Nina stood in her way, and Fiona shook her head.

“Let me do it.”

“But…….”

“I will do it.”

Saying so, Fiona stretched out her hand. Lucrezia twisted her body as the bright purifying light exploded.

No! No! No!!

Lucrezia, who was looking around, looked at the High Priest first. The man who she trusted, sat with a nonchalant face.

Lucrezia bit her lips.

‘I don’t want to die like this! I don’t want to die like this! Like this in front of Fiona!’

She had no intention of being wretchedly hunted. There was still a chance. A chance to make Fiona feel miserable and drop her on the dirt. All she has to do is kill all the witnesses here. Kill everyone and put the blame on Fiona.

When Lucrezia fell, as if lying down on her stomach, her figure changed.

People screamed when they saw the Saint turn into a giant lizard. 

“Princess, avoid!”

“Prince!!”

Large enough to fill the temple hall, the lizard had shiny black scales and red eyes.

“Ahhh!!”

The lizard with its mouth open let out a pink mist.

“!!”

As Fiona increased her emanating power, the mist also began to purify.

‘No.’

Nina thought the temple would have collapsed before Fiona could purify its size, and whispered to Fiona.

“Miss Fiona, I’m going to subdue her, so gather your strength and let it out in one shot. Understand?”

Fiona nodded her head and Nina jumped out of the purifying circle that Fiona had unfolded.

Pajik, pajik.

Blue flames flew from her uniform due to the poison spit by the lizard.

“Yah!!”

Nina ran out and kicked the lizard’s leg.

KYIEEE!!

The lizard screamed and waved its tail. The pillars supporting the temple were hit and began to collapse one after another.

“No, you don’t!!”

Nina shouted as she grabbed her waving tail.

“Winter! Your breath that freezes everything!”

Jok crick –

A pure white chill flowed out and everything began to freeze. The lizard’s legs were glued to the floor.

‘It’s a pity I don’t have my sword here.’

I could not come in with a sword, so I ended up unarmed. If not, I could have just cut off the tail and throw it away.

Fiona focused her mind and gathered as much power as she could.

‘It’s okay. Everything is okay. It’s all right.’

I can do it.

The seed crystal was broken. However, the power was originally hers. She would have been able to handle it without the seed. Just like Nina wields spirits, and Randell wields magic. 

She can definitely do it, too.

“Hah!!”

Raising her spirits with a shout, Fiona gathered her strength that was wrapping around her whole body and shot it at Lucrezia.

“Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!”

The Bellac struggled while screaming, and the huge massive body soon began to crumble along with golden dust.
