Chapter 656 The Oracle
She was perfect.
Her hair was pure white, whiter than snow. She had sparkling blue eyes, more precious than any gem that ever existed. A light veil stood firm on her face, decorated by jewels that glittered with gold and blue. Her white robe was also complemented with golden decors and jewels that were reminiscent of the deep blue sea.
Her long ears stuck out of her veil and hair, and her cute—cold, silent, and calm—beauty made everything around her blur in comparison.
The world around her was a golden cathedral-like palace, with candle-lights and sacred lightings giving everything a luster of mysterious sanctity.
Still, none was more mysterious or sanctified than she was.
As her gaze connected to Rey, he felt an electrifying sensation course through his whole body.
Never in all his life had he met a more beautiful woman, and he doubted he would ever be able to. Her whole identity was carved from perfection itself.
No, she was perfection.
Her scent was the strongest, and it was also the sweetest. None came close—not by a long shot. Rey found himself nearly losing himself in all of it, but managed to retain his sanity and complete consciousness as he stared at her in silence.
'T-this... is the Oracle?' He swallowed his saliva, feeling his heart race as he held Esme tightly to himself.
Ever since he laid eyes on her, he already recognized something.
... Something difficult to dismiss.
'Why does she look so much like Esme?!'
Their resemblance didn't stop at noticeable features like the hair or eyes, but also facial features and the overall aura they presented. She looked like a more mature and refined version of the girl he had in his arms.
Perhaps a long-lost relative? A big sister? A cousin? A mother? No... maybe not.
Compared to Esme, this woman that stood before Rey was leagues above. She existed in a realm far from other Elves—truly worthy to be revered as a deity.
'Calm yourself, Rey. Calm down...' He maintained a stable, consistent breath, finally reaching a point of composure where he could utter words to the woman before him.
Before he could mouth anything, though—
"Y-you... why do I look so much like you?" Esme muttered, her eyes wide open as she looked at The Oracle with a stupefied expression.
"Bullshit!" Before Rey realized it, he had raised his voice, as well as his head, staring point-blank at The Oracle that stood before him.
"I can see your Status Window. I know you have a Skill that can help me accomplish that!" He yelled out, his face a mix of desperation and sheer annoyance.
Rey already knew this wasn't the best way to ask for favors—especially from an entity like The Oracle.
But he was at his wit's end here.
He had fulfilled all the necessary conditions and finally came so close to his goal. The Oracle indeed had the power to help him.
So why...?
"Why won't you do anything if you have all it takes?!"
