Chapter 1121: Crown (3)



As if on cue, the Mark of God suddenly appeared on my hand.

It was just that the Mark of God was not the same as usual.

When the Mark of God appeared on my hand, there was this blinding light that suddenly came from it.

This light was much stronger than the light that it usually released.

At the same time, it seemed that the light from the crown also seemed to be getting stronger. It was as if there was some kind of resonance that was happening between the two of them. This resonance between the two of them only lasted for a minute before it suddenly cut off. With the way that the light suddenly disappeared, it was almost strange since it had happened too suddenly. It was almost as if there was something that had suddenly cut off the light from the two things that were glowing.

I didn't think too much about it and started moving closer to the Crown of Wisdom.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

It was just that before I was able to approach the crown, Saintess Irene suddenly came forward to stand between me and the crown.

I raised a brow as I looked at her, but I also took a step back just in case something happened. Even if she seemed like she was harmless, she was the saintess for a reason.

She was able to communicate with the gods and was able to use their powers, so the holy magic that she possessed was not something that could be looked down on.

I didn't think that she would do something like this with the way that she had looked at me before, but it wasn't as if I could just assume that nothing would happen.

Anything was possible in this world.

When Saintess Irene saw this, she quickly raised her hand and shook it as she said, "Holy son, it isn't like that. It's just that before you approach the Crown of Wisdom, there's something that I have to do to ensure your safety."

Saintess Irene turned back and gave a slow nod before moving aside for me to pass.

I walked past her and moved towards the pedestal that the Crown of Wisdom was on, but there was still the glass that was separating me from it. I wasn't in a rush to open this glass as I looked at the Crown of Wisdom for a bit before turning back to look at Saintess Irene who had followed behind me.

"What's wrong with it?"

The only thing that I had been told so far was that there was something wrong with the Crown of Wisdom, but no one had told me what exactly was wrong with the Crown of Wisdom. Without knowing that, it was hard for me to actually think of a way to solve their problem, whatever it was.

Saintess Irene didn't say anything as she revealed a faint bitter smile, but she didn't do anything as she went over to the pedestal and lifted the glass box off the pedestal.

Then she reached out to touch the Crown of Wisdom.

The moment that she touched the Crown of Wisdom, there was a light that appeared around

it.

It was just that this light...seemed like it was weaker than the light that had appeared when it resonated with the Mark of God that appeared on my hand. It was almost as if there was something off about this light.

Saintess Irene just kept her hand on the Crown of Wisdom as she turned back to say, "As you can see, the power of the Crown of Wisdom is weakening. We don't know what is weakening it, but since it's divine power that powers this Crown of Wisdom, it isn't something that we can replenish. The only thing that we can hope for is that..."

She didn't finish her words, but the way that she looked at my hand made it clear.

What had happened before was just a test.

They wanted to use me as a battery to power up this Crown of Wisdom.
