As I descended the stairs with my mom, I greeted the archbishop and the other paladins and priests from the Church of Light, who were gathered around a large table in the middle of the hall."Good morning, Archbishop, and to everyone else." My mother nodded and also greeted them, and they all stood up and greeted us back."Good morning to you too, holy son, and to you too, Duchess Steeline.""Good morning, Holy Son.""Greetings Duchess.""Holy Son is very kind.""Does the Archbishop sleep comfortably? There weren't any problems, were there?" I approached the table and asked as we exchanged small pleasantries with each other."No worries; everything was good, and we all had a good night's sleep yesterday." He replied with his signature old smile.Then, one by one, following the archbishop, the other paldins and priests also started expressing their thoughts."There's no need for the holy son to worry; Steeline's hospitality was really one of the best we have experienced.""Even the gar

Even though we left the Steeline castle at a relatively early hour in the morning, now that we are here in the royal capital, the afternoon sun has already begun to blaze overhead, giving everything it touches a warm golden glow. Since our visit today was very secretive in nature to ensure that the ceremony could be carried out without disturbance or interruption, there were no emblems or markings of the Church of Light or the Steeline family on our carriages. Therefore, our carriages were stopped at the gates of the Imperial City, but after the Paladins confirmed the identities, our carriages were respectfully allowed in without even going through any checks. Upon passing through the city gates located within the massive walls that encircled the Imperial City, we were greeted with a flurry of activity. The streets were filled with various vendors selling their wares in colourful stalls, craftsmen practising their trade, people going about their daily lives, and the sound of carria

Following the activation of the "play" by system, everyone watched in astonishment as the statue of the goddess began to glow with an otherworldly radiance.This radiance then burst forth from the statue of the goddess and engulfed the entire hall, especially me, who was the real recipient of it.The "divine energy of the goddess" that flooded my body bathed me in a warm golden light and then carried me off into the air.With excitement and fear, everyone saw a strange, powerful energy coursing through my body as I was lifted off the ground, my small feet leaving the soft red carpet.Instantly, as my body rose higher and higher, glistening with the same divine light that surrounded the goddess statue, I opened my eyes, which had turned completely white and were giving off a tyrannical oppression to anyone who dared to look into them."Impossible!""It's the goddess! The goddess has descended in the holy son."People's shocked exclamations reached my ears, and I smiled to myself."Card

"Audrey.... White? Do you mean the daughter of Archbishop Freyden White?" It was a question asked with a look of surprise on his face."She is probably a Peak Stage Sword Apprentice, but I have no idea whose daughter she is other than the fact that she has blue eyes and white hair and is about six or seven years older than me."When we were discussing Audrey, my eyes seemed to flitter and wander as though I were lost in a wistful reverie.However, only my mother noticed that look in my eyes.But she didn't point it out at that moment.She just sat back and observed the unfolding drama without saying a word."If anyone resembles your description, then she must be the daughter of Archbishop Freyden, because I can think of no other family named "White" connected to the Church that would have someone of the same description.""Alas! She..."After ascertaining Audrey's identity, the cardinal sighed and spoke in a resigned and contrite tone.But before he could finish, I completed his words

Finally, you f*cker is here!'Faber Bolt.'The late stage villain of "The Reincarnated Hero of Arcedia"A man with the potential to reach the archwizard rank in the future, which is equivalent to a sword supreme.'Now the second plan can finally begin.'After pulling my gaze away from the medicine cabinet, I greeted him back with a smile and a quick glance."Of course, Mr. Faber, this is why I am here. The goddess blesses every one of her children; you don't have to beg for it. Let me see your daughter first.""Thank you, holy son." He bowed his head, and I took the opportunity to take a close look at him at this time.He was a tall and well-built man with broad shoulders, a strong jawline, and piercing purple eyes that seemed to constantly scan his surroundings, as if searching for some kind of reassurance.His once golden hair was now tinged with grey, and he had deep lines on his forehead and around his eyes that made him look much older than he actually was.Although he looked hag
