Chapter 432 - 425. For The Future
"All of them, huh..."
Zein leaned back in his seat and crossed his arms, observing the priests’ and the templars’ sparkling eyes. He had an idea of where this suspicious reaction came from.
"Did the Goddess say something?"
Instantly, the already sparkling eyes of the priests brightened up even more. "Yes, Sir!" they replied simultaneously.
"The Goddess told us that we should listen to you," Agatha said with a smile. "She will not appoint new Saintess unless we do so."
Zein raised his brow. "Appoint new Saintess?"
The priests nodded with a solemn look. That was drastic, but then again...it was already proven that the previous Saintess lacked the grace and emotional maturity of someone bearing the title of a Saintess.
Hell, even Elena acted more ’saintly’ than her.
"I guess Frejya did talk to your Goddess."
The priests flinched at Zein’s casual mention of the Goddess’s name. But their curiosity exceeded their caution, because the younger priest leaned forward and asked in a lower voice. "It’s...it’s true, then, Sir? That you...went to Northern Alliance to talk with Lady Frejya?"
Zein wasn’t one to brag, usually, but in this case, he saw the need to put his position above the Temple Management, even if he wasn’t a Saint.
