The holy light is extinguished.
The spirits of holy light originating from the Theocracy will all leave "seeds of holy light" in the Holy Court. Even if the star spirit body perishes, it can be revived again through the seeds.
However, even so, the process of waiting for the elemental life to revive is extremely long.
For Histalia, this meant that for more than half a year, her most powerful Fourth Soul Contract could not be activated.
But at this moment, Histalia's heart did not even mourn for a moment for the extinction of her own Holy Light Spirit.
She just looked blankly at Aurora behind her and the chess piece of oath in the girl's hand, which represented the winter flower.
The chess piece of oath can only be possessed by the bloodline descendants of the oath family.
In this way, her identity is naturally revealed.
"You are the heir of Earl Winter, the only daughter that Char mentioned?"
...
...
She looked at Char, then at the blonde girl wearing a knight's skirt armor: "Then why did you do this?"
Histalia's question was also the voice of many nobles present.
As Char's identity and deeds were exposed, Airola, who had been by his side for many years, also came into the sight of many people and was studied repeatedly.
Because I have been on missions in the military for many years, it is not difficult to find information about Airola...
A powerful and talented civilian beastmaster.
Moreover, he is very loyal to Char.
This is a fact that is clearly stated in black and white in all the information.
All of Char's commercial businesses in the Black Lily District had always been managed by Airola, and when Char occasionally showed up in the Imperial Capital, Airola would just follow him silently, removing obstacles for him with an expressionless face.
Subordinates, attendants, maids, knights, lovers... these are all outsiders' speculations about the relationship between Char and Airola.
So even though there is evidence that this blonde girl was also from Ceylon, no one has ever doubted her identity.
No matter how much the Winter Flower Family was squeezed out of the center of power, it was still one of the Eight Oath Families after all, and as a survivor of the disaster, it was reasonable for the Empire to help it.
It is obvious that Airola only needs to reveal a little bit of her identity to naturally gain the status and respect she deserves, as well as the resources that go with it.
But she never did that.
She was Char's shield and his sword, and like a shadow, she followed him silently all the way without any complaints.
"Aurora Ingulite."
"What is your relationship with him?"
Histalia murmured.
She originally thought that today was just an ordinary engagement party, with at most some elements of the family showing off their strength and skills.
But there were too many things today that were beyond her expectations, and she knew nothing about them.
"What is it?"
Airola's gaze lingered on Char's profile, and a hint of reminiscence flashed in her beautiful blue eyes.
She seemed to have returned to the time when they first arrived in the imperial capital. It was also a winter like today.
They were not very wealthy when they first arrived here, and the prices in the imperial capital have always been much higher than in other areas.
In order to save accommodation costs, Char and Airola had to live in the dormitory provided by Saint Laurent College for civilian students.
At that time, Airola had just concluded a soul contract with Longoniemiad, but the holy relic type of pets were exactly the type that consumed the most extraordinary materials, and required a large amount of resources to be piled up before they could take shape.
And if there is no accumulation of resources, the unrevived relics will be no different from a pile of scrap metal, and Airola's training progress as a beastmaster will be far behind her peers.
She wanted to slow down her advancement, but was flatly rejected by Xia: "Since you followed me, I can't let you suffer any injustice."
"My girl, everything has to be the best."
“Whatever those nobles have, you must have too.” To this day, Airola still remembers Char’s expression when he said this. Although his facial expression was deliberately serious, his dark eyes seemed to be smiling.
So in the following nights, Airola would find that Char would secretly get up after she fell asleep, and write something on the old manuscript paper in the dim light of the candle, and from time to time he would mutter a few words like "I only regret not having read enough when I need it" and "I can't remember at all, how did other seniors copy the texts?"
On countless winter nights, Xia took the royalties he received from submitting his works to bookstores and newspapers, held Airola's hand, and bargained with people in the Chamber of Commerce and the black market in a deep manner, in exchange for extraordinary materials for her advancement.
Sometimes they would have some silver and copper coins left over, so Char would buy hot sesame cakes from vendors in the lower town, tear off a small half for himself, and give the rest to Airola.
Spring warmth, summer days, autumn days, winter nights…
One year, two years...
Their lives gradually got better. Char's contributions to the book club became a big hit, and with the royalties as starting capital, they opened shops in the Black Lily District.
But to this day, Airola still misses the taste of that winter, so sometimes Char would take her back to the downtown area to buy some baked cakes or roasted sweet potatoes, and then sit down on a step. She would eat while Char watched.
…
Airola looked at the black-haired, black-eyed young man in front of her, and a smile appeared on her fair face.
"He is..."
"My life."
The girl's whispers disappeared in the night breeze, and no one heard them.
As the second chess piece of oath appeared, the barrier formed by the illusory flame was silently shattered.
No one in the entire hall spoke. Too many unexpected events happened during this dinner, so many that it was hard for people to catch their breath.
But someone finally took action.
"Silver Fox" Lille.
The previous second, he was just walking towards Histalia, as if he wanted to support and comfort his somewhat confused young lady.
But the next moment his body suddenly moved, his fingers turned into sharp blades, and attacked Char straightly. The whistling sound of breaking through the air resounded, carrying a determined murderous intent.
He acted with the intention of killing. As the butler of the Borgia family, Liel knew exactly what Char's behavior today meant.
If Char is not killed, then after today, the royal family will certainly publicize the truth about Ceylon... Even the originally harmonious cooperation between the Holy See and the Borgia family because of Histalia will be affected because of Char's testimony - the conspiracy with Warwick was carried out without the knowledge of the Holy See.
But as long as Char is killed, everything will turn around.
The royal family would certainly be furious, but he was just a dead man after all.
At worst, the Borgia family would hand over Lille himself as a life for his own. As the steward of the Borgia family, he always put the interests of the family first and was prepared to die for it.
Lil did not summon his pet because the noise would be too loud and would give outsiders time to react.
He was a melee beastmaster of the physical strengthening system. Although he did not have the power enhancement of his pet, he was still a genuine title-level beastmaster... With his deliberate planning, it was no problem for him to wipe out Xia, a beastmaster who had just broken through the fourth ring.
A strong wind broke through the air and headed straight for Char's throat.
As the butler of the Borgia family, Lille has done countless things over the years like helping the family eliminate dissidents and eliminate hostile potential newcomers, and he has become extremely skilled at it.
He seemed to have seen the scene of Char's throat being pierced and dying in despair.
But the next moment.
But Lill saw that Char, who had kept his eyes slightly lowered, suddenly raised his head.
He just looked at Lille who was attacking him with an expressionless face, and his dark eyes suddenly turned into pure red.
Char smiled silently.
Then, a word was spoken.
"God avoids"
