Chapter 388 Selvian?!

388  Selvian?!

So beautiful…

So beautiful that it made him shut up while he was talking.

Previously, Sarinba had seen this beauty, however, at that time, Seraphen's expression was extremely cold and indifferent to everything.

Moreover Sarinba could only watch her from afar.

But now it was different, he was seeing her real face up close.

Different from the past, Seraphen's expression now was a smile, like the sun dispelling fog, making it difficult for him to speak.

"Seraphen… you… you are so beautiful…"

Seraphen: "..."

'What the hell is this?! I just walked out the door and met this bastard! Is today my unlucky day?'

'No OK! If he told the Pope about me sneaking out, I'd be scolded by the Pope for sure.'

'No, the Pope will surely know that I have secretly informed the Void Lord of the Pope's information.'

'Hm… what to do now.'

"Se…Seraphen… the cake from the other day… was it good?"

Seraphen frowned upon hearing that, remembering the cake that Sarinba gave her, she felt like vomiting.

No, to be more precise, at first, she felt that the cake was delicious.

However, after eating the Void Lord's cake, she felt that Sarinba's cake seemed to be made for slaves, not ordinary people.

It was too sugary …

Too awful…

Yet… at first, Seraphen thought that cake was the best thing in the world.

When she thought about it, she felt a little stupid.

Seraphen glanced at Sarinba, and thought about what to do to get rid of this stalker.

"Ah… delicious, thank you. However… you certainly didn't come to me to talk about this, right?"

"That's right." Hearing Seraphen's words, Sarinba excitedly replied, "I have come to tell you that three days later, we will go to the ancient ruins I mentioned earlier to excavate."

"At that time, there will be a lot of people from other clans or kingdoms. We must lead them to…"

"Heh?!" Before Sarinba finished speaking, Seraphen interrupted: "Can you lead all those people? How wonderful. Sarinba, your leadership is getting higher and higher. Congratulations to you."

Seraphen spoke softly, although Seraphen interrupted him Sarinba was not angry, on the contrary, he felt extremely happy.

'Her smile is beautiful.' Inwardly Sarinba thought: 'It seems… She likes people with leadership abilities and high positions.'

'That's right, she's the Holy Maiden after all, the man to match her can only be me, the next pope of the saric Sanctuary.'

Sarinaba thought of a very good future in his heart, his mouth suddenly filled with a satisfied smile.

Seraphen saw this and took three steps back, pouting at Sarinba as if she were looking at an idiot.

"Ah! Sorry…" He jolted awake from his fantasies of the future: "I… was thinking about something so I couldn't pay attention to what you just said."

"Holy Maiden, you can rest assured, I will lead those people well, and let them excavate the ancient ruins well."

"Um… hope everything goes well, no matter what."

"Hahaha..." Sarinba laughed: "Holy Maiden, you can rest assured, with me here, nothing bad can happen. I promise it will be a wonderful trip."

"Um…" Seraphen nodded: "Can… Can you make another cake?"

"Another cake?" When Sarinba heard that, he was a little embarrassed, and said, "Sorry, Holy Maiden. That was the only cake, to make a second one requires a lot of materials and time to research."

"Heh… so I can't eat something as delicious as that cake?" Seraphen lowered her head, her eyes filled with sadness as if she was remembering the past.

Sarinba immediately felt that his heart was being squeezed by someone, and it was extremely painful.

'Ah! What the hell did I just do?! Why did I make the Holy Maiden feel sad?!'

'But… she looks so good even when she's sad too, like a work of art created by the gods.'

"Holy Maiden." Suddenly Sarinba shouted: "Don't worry, I will try to make another cake."

"Heh?! But you just said it's the only cake, to make a second one would be difficult, right?" Seraphen asked a little worriedly.

Sarinba patted his chest and said, "Holy Maiden, don't worry. As long as you like it, no matter how impossible it is, I will do it for you."

After that, Sarinba immediately left, Seraphen breathed a sigh of relief.

"Haizzz, fortunately Sarinba is an idiot, otherwise…" Seraphen remembered Sarinba's words, and she smiled scornfully.

"The only cake? If it's the only cake, why didn't you give it to your parents but instead gave it to me, for that you are a fool."

"Ah! No, that cake wasn't the only one either. It's just… he gave the worst cake, a failed product to his father, and kept the better one to himself."

"Hm… actually both are bad." Seraphen now remembered the sweet taste of the cake that Hikaru had given her.

Seraphen intended to save the remaining two cakes that the Void Lord had given her to eat when absolutely necessary.

However, when the Pope requested it, she had to give them to the Pope.

Although the Pope didn't force her, she thought that the Pope was the one who saved her from the dark mud after all, making her the Holy Maiden.

At least, if there was something good she had to give him first.

"Hm… I'll get more cakes this time, I'm sure the Pope and his wife will like it."

Thinking of this, Seraphen immediately disguised herself as the form Hikaru had seen before, then left Sanctuary.

In the distance, atop a tower more than 200 meters from the palace of the Holy Maiden.

Satrito saw Seraphen leave, and sighed in his heart. Of course he knew where she was going and what she planned to do.

However, he didn't want to stop Seraphen either. At the very least, the Void Lord could be prepared to face Sarina and her army.

Why does he want that?

No one knows, after all, Satrito is the pope, and he has ruled the Saric Sanctuary for more than 8,000 years, not a puppet king.

He took a deep breath, then looked back at Sarinba and sighed: "Haizzz, my stupid son, you are such an idiot."

"If you continue like this, how can I safely entrust you as the Pope?"

"In the end, you will become a puppet Pope."

Satrito sighed, he felt like the Saric Sanctuary was about to collapse. Perhaps… it will continue to exist but the will of the previous popes will be lost.

In its place would be a whole new Sanctuary, without mercy, and it won't care for the people.

At that time the Sanctuary's pope will use the power of the sanctuary to overwhelm all the other kingdoms.

Satrito sighed, he suddenly remembered his father's words.

"Satrito, this world is full of suffering and war. The Sanctuary was founded to save the world on behalf of the gods, not to oppress others."

"We must bring love and enlightenment to all the people of this world. Only then will the world truly be at peace."

"Using war to suppress war will only extend the war and worsen it."

Satrito finished recalling the memory, he could only shake his head, as his eyes were filled with despair.

He also wanted to do what his father and previous Popes wanted to do.

However, he could not afford to do that. He was too weak, everything he had, and even his level of "Pseudo-Saint" was also bestowed by Sarina.

That's right, Sarina comes from a very large ancient family. The power of that clan was so great that it could sit on the same level as the Sanctuary.

When the previous Pope died, the Sanctuary's power was greatly reduced. The best way to keep this place alive was through communication.

Yes, he must marry the daughter of that family, Sarina herself, to ensure that the Saric Sanctuary can continue to exist without any threat.

However, that led to the current situation where the Sanctuary was almost dominated by Sarina.

She provides the resources, strength, and manpower to the Saric Sanctuary, in return, this place must serve her.

It could be said that, although Sarina did not have any position, her position in the hearts of everyone in this place was much higher than him.

If one day, Sarina and him face each other, and become enemies, then everyone in Saric Sanctuary will surely only support Sarina, not him.

His fate was like that of a bird in a cage. Although he sang very well, in the end his life was in the hands of someone else.

"Haizzz, maybe… the era of the Saric Sanctuary has to end? Will the will of the previous Popes also have to come to an end?"

…

In Sarina's private room, she sat by the window, staring at a pot of sunflowers.

At this point, she no longer used her own life energy to nourish that pot, but just sat still and watched it gradually wither.

"Master…" Suddenly, a voice rang out.

Sarina didn't turn her head, she knew who it was. It was a person wearing a white robe, the person was also wearing a mask with only two holes for two eyes.

"Seraphen seems to be going to meet the Void Lord."

As soon as Sarina heard that, she frowned, she asked: "Where's Sarinba?"

"He..."

"I understand!" While the other was faltering, Sarina interrupted: "Ignore that idiot. Keep watching Seraphen, if the Void Lord endangers her then… kill him."

"Yes!"

The man bowed his head, and then disappeared. Sarina sighed, looked out the window, her eyes were lit as if she was expecting something.

…

Seraphen came out of the Saric Sanctuary, based on the location given by Hikaru, she immediately took out a Misty Compass, then used teleportation magic.

The space around her changed, and she found herself standing in a place that was only filled with fog.

"Strange… I got to the spot he gave me, why is there nothing around?"

"Are you looking for the entrance to the Void Lord's domain?"

Suddenly, a voice startled Seraphen, she turned her head to see a woman.

When she saw the woman, Seraphen was even more surprised: "Selvian?!"
