Chapter 226 The Angry Moon Goddess

"Hello, Her Highness Silina."

"It's Mrs. Belmonte. Good evening."

Looking at the noble lady in front of her who was dressed in gorgeous clothes but had a humble smile on her face, Hillina did not stand up. Instead, she smiled slightly and nodded slightly in greeting.

Seeing this, the other party seemed a little flattered, and then took the little girl in his arms and sat beside her awkwardly.

Although she was born into a marquis family and her husband was a member of the Imperial Senate, her mother's family was weak and she was the second wife of the Marquis of Belmont, so she was not taken seriously in the social circles of the Imperial Capital.

At this moment, the open-air auditorium, which was like a circular arena, was bustling with people. Many guests in luxurious clothes were wandering back and forth in the aisles. They were all nobles and celebrities who were invited tonight.

Any one of them is a formidable giant.

However, in order to attend the Moonlight Ceremony held every five years and watch the miracles performed by the Moon Goddess, they all appeared here without any prior arrangement.

Under normal circumstances, this is absolutely unimaginable.

After all, the Church of Silence is a place that can produce moonlight essence.

They were eager to get this magical medicine that could reverse life and death, so how could they easily become enemies with these church members? And because of her delicate relationship with Tia, Xilina also participated in the Moonlight Ceremony tonight.

Speaking of which, for a period of time in the past, the little girl had unilaterally treated her as a love rival and was vaguely hostile to her.

However, considering the ambiguous relationship between Xia and I, it is not surprising that the other party would have such thoughts.

After all, I have a good impression of the young captain who once saved me from a desperate situation.

And if the conditions are right, she is not opposed to being together with the other party.

And with Xia's help, his advantage in the competition for the king's election will become more and more obvious.

So sometimes, Hillina felt distressed by Tia's vague hostility towards her.

After all, the Saint Laurent Empire still promotes monogamy.

Although most nobles would keep several mistresses in private, and their wives would most likely turn a blind eye to this and have their own affairs, she had been deeply influenced by the "Chronicles of Shino" since she was a child, and deep in her heart she still longed for a pure and loyal love.

She fantasized that one day, a brave and brilliant being would be recognized by the Holy Spirit Tree, confess his love to her in front of the whole world, and promise to be with her for life.

If that were the case, I would probably feel excited too, right? Hilina thought silently in her heart, but on the surface she still looked as if she was in the spring breeze, sitting on the highest seat arranged by the Silence Church, and occasionally responding to the greetings from some powerful people.

Although she did not like such social occasions, she had received too much training in this area since she was a child, so there was no visible flaw on the surface.

In contrast, in a deserted area in the distance, Yvesette, with her cold expression and murderous eyes, formed a sharp contrast with her sister.

The degree to which the two were respected by the nobles was far different.

Everyone tried to avoid the terrifying being who was born with a curse mark on his face.

Obviously, they were still a little uncomfortable with the fact that Yves Saint was also invited and came in person.

Compared to the past few Moonlight Ceremony, there seemed to be a hint of murderous intent in the air tonight.

Noticing someone was looking at her, Yvesette, who was standing across the circular auditorium, glanced over with a sharp gaze.

After a brief eye contact, she looked away coldly, without any emotion in her eyes.

Seeing this, Hillina suddenly felt helpless.

I thought that after the sisters' night talk that night, the relationship between the two might improve a little.

But now it seems that she was overthinking.

Hilina sighed softly, then looked up at the sky.

The night sky is like a pitch-black curtain, dotted with stars like diamond beads, sparkling slightly, which is fascinating.

In addition to this, there is the perfect, bright white full moon, hanging high in the sky like a crystal jade plate, emitting a cool silver glow, which invisibly brings quiet comfort to people.

The viewing hall is open-air, so no matter which direction you are in, you can experience the miracle up close from the most perfect angle.

This is a privilege for the nobles, and it is also a position that those who believe in "silence" will never be able to reach in their lifetime.

I don’t know when the holy book will begin. Hillina thought silently, but another figure subconsciously emerged in her mind.

Thinking about it carefully, it seems that Yvesette gradually became what she is now after she met him at the border.

Although her heart was still extremely twisted, as the eldest of nine siblings and also a thoughtful woman, she could occasionally detect a fleeting hint of tenderness in her third sister's eyes in recent days.

As for who this tenderness is directed at, it is obvious.

Lynn Bartletleon.

No one knew what kind of magic power this person had that could subtly change her into her current appearance.

Not only her, but even Tia has a close connection with him.

If you think about it carefully, you will understand.

If I target Xia, sooner or later I will have emotional conflicts and disputes with her.

For this, Hillelina had already prepared herself mentally.

But after meeting him in the ward last time, she discovered a phenomenon that was worth pondering.

The Silent Saint, who used to talk all the time about Xia, no longer had the hostility in her eyes when she saw her "powerful rival in love" again.

Perhaps even Tia herself did not realize this.

Recalling the brief encounter with that guy last night, Hillina shook her head slightly.

She did not have any strong psychological fluctuations, and her mental maturity was far beyond her peers. She was definitely not the kind of innocent girl who could be easily bewitched by sweet words and tricks.

But to be honest.

Although the first contact between the two was very brief and purely due to the transaction of the Tomb of Heremus, it still left a deep impression on her.

I don’t know where he is now or whether he has been caught.

This thought had just come to mind when a group of hurried-looking clergymen appeared on the scene the next second.

"I'm sorry." The leading nun looked nervous, "For unknown reasons, the divine descent of the Moonlight Scripture will not take place this time."

“Buzz!”

Before she could finish, a strange and long-lasting resonance came from the bright full moon in the sky, and then the cold moonlight, as clear as water, was seen flowing in all directions as if it had substance.

The silver light quietly spread over the earth.

The moon, which should have followed the rules of day and night like a dead object, seemed to be suddenly given life, becoming agile and elegant.

At the same time, seeing the sacred scene that was only described in church scriptures, the leading nun stood there in a daze, and then an unprecedented piety and fanaticism appeared in her eyes.

He murmured the second half of the sentence that he had just spoken.

".Started early."

Although it is a descent from the gods, in the final analysis, for the moon goddess Beatrice, the so-called Moonlight Codex is nothing more than a ritual to choose a suitable container for herself.

The real divine descent actually takes place in the gap between the God and the Moon.

No one will know the whole process.

However, since the moon is the mythical form of Beatrice, it will be pulled in with her advent and undergo a certain degree of changes.

Therefore, the Church of Silence took the opportunity to declare this change a miracle in order to boost its reputation.

Otherwise, even if he was not in the right state at the moment, he was still a powerful righteous God. How could he attract attention and please those ordinary people by descending from the sky? At this moment, in the sky above the gap between the God and the Moon, a bright white light ball gradually bloomed with a soft and dazzling light, which made people squint subconsciously.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

A terrifying sense of oppression and a cold divinity that was high above filled the entire space invisibly.

If someone were to face this power from ancient times, they would probably lose consciousness in an instant.

Although it is called the Bright Moon, the light emitted by that ball of light is like a scorching sun, becoming increasingly bright and dazzling. Even a powerful extraordinary being cannot look directly at the existence in the center of the ball of light.

Bright Moon Consciousness.

In other words, it is a part of the pure soul that was separated from Beatrice after her body was polluted by evil gods and demons.

In order to prevent this irreversible pollution from affecting his position as a god, the Moon Goddess had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure, spending a long time and a lot of manpower and resources to select a suitable container from all over the world for her own birth.

For a god, unless he is forced into a desperate situation, he will never use such humiliating and difficult means to embark on the road to becoming a god again.

At this moment, if a strong man tried his best to squint and look towards the center of the light, he would be able to see a graceful body formed by moonlight, floating lightly in the sky.

His eyes were shining as he looked down at all living things in the world with coldness and indifference, as if nothing could cause any psychological fluctuations in him.

Just like that, on a seemingly ordinary and peaceful night.

The moon goddess Beatrice descended silently into the gap between the divine moon and the moon.

His gaze seemed to penetrate the void and overlook the world.

After a long time, he calmly withdrew his gaze and looked at Tia who was curled up in the painful illusion.

Only at this time did the Moon Goddess reveal a hint of coldness.

Obviously, Sister Grete and others had already reported the changes that happened to the container to Him, so Beatrice was not too surprised or resentful at the moment, and just looked up and down at Tia's body in silence.

At the same time, his gaze had penetrated the level of consciousness and reached her spiritual world.

Under the multiple tortures of the painful illusion and the interference of a series of historical divergences related to Lin En, Tia at this moment seems to have developed an extremely strong self-loathing.

As her soul gradually dimmed and faded, the goal of completely eliminating the "error" in the container seemed not far away.

It won't be long before Beatrice is born into this perfect container in the most fitting manner in hundreds of years.

Logically speaking, as a high and mighty God, even if some unexpected situations occurred, He should remain calm and make up for the loopholes.

This is not too difficult.

In order to prevent the container from being harmed, even if Beatrice could not forcibly erase Tia's consciousness, she could definitely speed up the process easily.

But He did not do that.

Not only that, looking at Tia with a painful expression, He suddenly waved his hand lightly, and lifted the painful illusion inflicted on her.

In an instant, Tia's consciousness slowly opened her eyes, as if she had finally woken up from a long nightmare.

"Goddess, my lady?"

Seeing the bright white shadow in front of her, Tia's emerald green eyes flashed with a hint of panic, and then she supported her body weakly and knelt in front of Him.

The girl looked pious and desperate.

It is hard to imagine that these two completely different states can appear in one person at the same time.

Watching the scene before her, Beatrice did not feel the slightest bit of pity.

As a god, searching memories is a piece of cake for him.

In just a short moment, He read all of Tia's recent memories.

After a brief silence, an extremely cold and murderous aura swept across the entire Divine Moon Crack invisibly and without substance.

The mere sight of the absurd scene of the vessel he had chosen being embraced by a lowly and dirty man on the balcony aroused the murderous intent in his heart to the extreme.

As for the subsequent memories, He no longer had the heart to continue reading them.

It seemed that these insects in the church were still hiding something from her and had not even informed her of such an important matter.

After realizing this, Beatrice felt a strong rage in her heart.

When he thought of the "error" in this container, which actually controlled his body to perform such a disgusting action, he subconsciously clenched his fists.

Among all the gods of the Saint Laurent Empire, Beatrice, who also holds the authority of "beauty", is the only one who hates all men.

This is also reflected in the teachings of the Quiet Church.

In her opinion, men are the creatures in the world that least fit the characteristic of "beauty" and should be completely exterminated.

This is why, when He chose this container, He did not hesitate to bestow the "blessing" that would cause disgust to all men in the world, as a layer of insurance.

Coupled with the strict discipline of the church, we thought that no accidents would happen.

Unexpectedly, mistakes still occurred in the end.

But Beatrice is a god after all, blessed with tens of thousands of years of experience.

Therefore, after a brief silence, He did not show the anger in His heart, but only said slowly in an extremely cold voice: "Any last words?"
