Chapter 286: Voices
"Now what is that supposed to mean?" she asked.
"You have yet to develop a way to control your Blessings. The light and dark need to coexist together. One wrong move and you will lose everything."
"What?" she frowned.
"Your Blessing you will lose it." Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
"How? I mean" she recalled what happened in her past life. "Why?"
"Because you were given the Blessings for you to use."
"What of the people who were given the Blessing but did not use it in the North? I mean. These days, the others who receive the Blessing are not helping the North fight against the beasts."
"You have two of them, Rosalind. Those people have one."
Again, she lowered her gaze. Was this the reason why she lost her Blessings in her past life? She did not use the dark Blessing and chose to hide it, thinking that it was evil while she kept on using her light Blessing to heal people.
Soon enough, she lost both of her Blessings and her body started rotting. She knew she was dying, but she did not know if it was because she did not use both of her Blessings.
"How did you know this?" she asked.
"I cannot answer that."
"Then are you going to answer more of my questions?"
"Soon."
"Why are you doing this?" she asked.
"Doing what?"
"Telling me something then not answering the rest of my questions. Are you perhaps trying to kill me with curiosity?"
"You just said you were not a cat."
"You have a point." She did not think that he would so easily use her words against her. "Then are you going to teach me?"
"Of course."
"Are you not scared that I will use it against you?"
"Would you?"
"No." She knew how to distinguish enemies and allies and the Duke was not an enemy. Moreover, she would never want him as an enemy. While she was still curious about a lot of things, she knew that he would never tell her anything more than what she needed to know.
Her divine will forever just.
With healing touch and gentle care,
The Saintess mends all wounds with prayer,
Her blessing flows like a soothing breeze,
Calming all pain with such great ease.
We sing their praises high and loud,
Her Greatness, an endless shroud,
Of blessings, she bestow upon us,
Her divine will forever just.
With healing touch and gentle care,
The Saintess mends all wounds with prayer,
Her blessing flows like a soothing breeze,
Calming all pain with such great ease."
The song became even louder as Rosalind and Lucas neared the tent. They could now see people walking in and out of the tent and knights more than twenty knights surrounding it.
"I heard that the second prince is here to visit the Saintess!" said one of the people nearby. "Do you think the Saintess will leave this place to marry him?"
"The Saintess is good and kind. Her heart is pure. She is following the will of the Goddess! I do not see any reason for her to leave this place."
"I can only hope that the Goddess will not leave this place."
Hearing their conversation, Rosalind and Lucas continued approaching the tent and easily found an opportunity to go inside as there were maids who were walking in and out with something in their hands.
The moment they walked in, they immediately spotted the prince.
Rosalind frowned.
She could see the second Prince of the Aster Empire. However, for some reason, the one opposite him had been shrouded with dark mist.
As if sensing her and Lucas, the person shrouded in dark mist looked at them and asked. "Show yourself!"

I promised to finish 300 chapters by the end of this month. I thought I would not be able to do it because I was sick. I guess, I can still do it! Yey!
