Chapter 588: Athena Part 2

I didn't trust this woman, she is an Inquisitor of the Church of Light, moreover, she killed her companions without hesitation, her strength is also greater than her appearance suggests.

I was going to break up with her for the sole reason that I didn't want to take unnecessary risks by not trusting her, not to mention that I felt something strange about her, I couldn't understand that, so it would be better to get rid of her.

It was at that moment before I started killing everyone that she said that if I asked a Moon Fairy I would be able to distinguish between truth and lies.

"(I wish Nix was here since it's a Spirit with one of the elements being the Moon, but I won't summon her just because of that.)" (I)

"(I'll try to find a Fairy or Spirit that can help.)" (I)

I close my eyes and focus, the two Cradles within the Dungeon were created in Cooperation with me, my shadow is the gateway to them, I am deeply connected with both, but it took me a long time to realize that.

I realized this by accident a few days ago, after I realized this I was able to connect with these Cradles so I could see what happens in them and communicate with the Fairies or Spirits inside the two Cradles.

That's what I was doing now, I was looking for a Fairy or Spirit suiting among the thousands inside the Dungeon.

I started by looking for the strongest of the Moon element, then I selected the smartest, and finally, I chose the one that seemed to be on the verge of evolving.

"(Come to me.)" (I)

"(Zenos!)"

Who I called was a Spirit, it was a big black and white Serpent, normally it stays near the waterfall and spends most of its day sleeping, it seems Lilith likes this spirit, she says it was the first friend she made before graduating my daughter.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)

This Spirit has an affinity for the pure elements of Light, Darkness, and Moon.

As soon as I called a black rift forms in front of the Serpent Spirit, he enters leaving my shadow later, when he left he was already in a much smaller size, he was perched on my shoulder where I caress his little head.

"Can you help me out for a while?" (I)

"Where's Mother?"

"She's far away, that's why I called you." (I)

"I don't like to fight..."

"I didn't call you to fight, but I still think you should learn to defend yourself, I said that before." (I)

"Waste of time, sleep is better."

"Why betray the Church of Light?" (I)

"What do you hope to gain from all this?" (I)

These three questions were hammering in my head, this situation doesn't make sense to me, this Celestina's actions don't make sense to me.

She looks at her companions who nod at her with determination and confidence in their eyes, I feel how much they believe in this Celestina who looks into my eyes before starting to speak.

"My family has belonged to the Church of Light for generations, even now there are people I called family still there, I grew up learning about the Church's teachings of justice, peace, and loyalty..." (Athena)

"Your story can be very beautiful and moving, but I want a summary, our battle may have been short, but your barrier must have caught the attention of the townspeople, so we have less than 30 minutes before we are discovered at this distance." (I)

"..." (Athena)

Sigh

"You're right, we can save the details for later." (Athena)

"To sum it up, I discovered that the Church of Light is not what I thought, I saw with my own eyes something terrible being done without them doing anything, and after that, I discovered many other things that they did in the past." (Athena)

"I studied about Saint Vanessa in my youth, but the things I heard were just what the Church wanted to reveal, when I started to investigate I found her diary, it opened my eyes once again." (Athena)

"When I was chosen to come after you, I received all the information the Church of Light had collected, including that Saint Vanessa was with you." (Athena)

"So your target is Vanessa?" (I)

"No, my goal is you who were able to free Saint Vanessa's connections with the Church of Light." (Athena)

"My companions and I want to leave the Church of Light, but if we flee we will be found and killed." (Athena)

"So anyone who enters cannot leave? What kind of religion is this that forces a person to stay?" (I)

"Normal Kindred can choose to stay or leave as they please, but those of us who were trained to be Inquisitors were taught secret Church techniques, spells, skills and knowledge, things that cannot be spread." (Athena)

"That's why I wanted to find you, we want to be free like Saint Vanessa, please help us." (Athena)

I look at the Spirit Serpent on my shoulder, she looks at me and shakes her head in confirmation saying it's all true.

I look into each one's eyes that are full of determination and hope, Celestina Athena's eyes were the most strong-willed.

"What should I do?" (I)
