Chapter 8: Talent Unleashed (2)
“A Saint and not a Saintess?”
The Empress repeated my words, looking at me with a frown.
I pointed directly at the artifact on the table and replied.
“That Holy Grail is an artifact that awakens hidden talents, isn’t it? If a Saintess were to emerge from the alliance between the Empress and our family, it would be a joyous occasion without compare.”
“That’s correct.”
“I inherited Gotberg’s blood more strongly than Neria did. Look at my hair.”
I leaned back and tilted my head up for everyone to see.
Snow-white hair.
White hair was a defining trait of those born with potent divine power in our family.
And my hair was far closer to pure white than Neria’s.
“If I use the Holy Grail to awaken my talents, wouldn’t the chances of me being chosen as a Saint be much higher?”
The Empress’s expression turned slightly displeased.
