Legacy of the Betelgeuse

After the three of them are done discussing their plans for the future of the Alliance Kingdoms and about the subjects that are deployed all over the Alliance Kingdoms, Ivonna and I are about to leave the Palace and go to the Acuria Kingdom and go to the Holy Temple to meet with Saintess Aria.

We are on our way to the teleportation device, Ivonna is looking around and she realizes that there are so many players still wearing their starter armor and equipment walking around the city. She smiles and she looks happy to see so many new players in the Alliance Kingdoms. Those players are the 2nd Generation and based on the data on the official website, almost half of them are choosing the Alliance Kingdoms faction because of the Invasion.

Ivonna looks at me and tilts her head.

"Back then, the three sovereignties were still at peace?"

I look at her and nod.

"Yeah, but it was a bit different. Back then, the three sovereignties were still at war but mostly it was to defend their territory. Only the Aarus Empire who were invading the other sovereignties, the Eluna Empire and the Alliance Kingdoms were allies back then to protect each other from the Aarus Empire. Even after I left the three sovereignties, nothing changed.."

Ivonna is humming with understanding.

"So, if we are not saving the Alliance Kingdoms from the Eluna Empire's scheme, what would happen to them?"

I shrug.

"I don't know since I prevent the Eluna Empire from conquering the Alliance Kingdoms. It will still be a mystery."

I raise my eyebrow and smirk.

"You want to see what happened if we are not preventing the Eluna Empire from conquering the Alliance Kingdoms? I'm down for it if you want."

Ivonna leans back and shakes her head.

"No thanks."

I chuckle and then we use the teleportation device and go to the Acuria Kingdom.

We walk into the Holy Temple and this is the first time Ivonna has been here, so she's amazed by how beautiful this place is, but she told me that Eveth's temple is way grandiose than this one and it was surrounded by flowers that it smells so good and made her relaxed.

We are at the front gate and there are 2 guards that are guarding the gate. Well, they're not actually a guard or a knight, they're a Paladin. They're not a part of the Acuria Kingdom, this Holy Temple is based on the Vatican and Becker got the idea of the Holy Temple from there. They both are looking at us and then walk toward us with their halberds in their hands.

I remove my hood and scarf, and one of the Paladins looks at me.

"Oh, Lord Trevor and Lady Ivonna. Are you perhaps visit the Holy Temple to meet the Saintess?"

I nod and point my hand at Ivonna.

"Yes, Ivonna is here has something important to deliver to Saintess Aria."

The Paladins bows.

"Well then, please come inside. Unfortunately, the Saintess is currently busy, so Lord Trevor and Lady Ivonna have to wait if that is okay? The Saintess is in the Holy Palace, and you can wait in the garden near the Palace."

We both nod.

"Thank you, we will."

They open the gate for us and we both enter the temple. One of the Paladins is guiding us to the Palace while Ivonna is looking around and mesmerized by the beauty of the temple. We are entering the garden and the garden is covered with flowers and apple trees, the Paladin then pointing his hand at the gazebo in the middle of the garden. We both thank him and we both are waiting for Saintess Aria in the gazebo.

The priest and priestess are serving us food and drink while we are waiting for Saintess Aria. We are enjoying the food and Aeris is eating the cake and cookie that Ivonna offers her. I summon Azrael and let him enjoy the garden with Aeris, they both are playing in the garden while Ivonna and I are lazing in the gazebo.

We are talking about something trivial but then the bell rungs on top of the Palace, we both look up and then the huge door is opening. Saintess Aria is walking outside the Palace with dozens of priestesses walking behind her, and there are familiar faces that are next to Saintess Aria. They're the nobles who devoted themselves to the Holy Temple, and they're the people that will support the Saintess even if they're going to go for treason if it's necessary. They will be a great ally for me in the future. I should see them someday.

The nobles bow to Saintess Aria and then they leave the Holy Temple while Saintess Aria is walking them to the gate. After a few minutes, Saintess Aria comes back with the priestesses. She looks at me with a big smile on her face. Ivonna and I stand up and walk toward her to greet her formally because she's officially a Saintess now and we have to show our respect.

Saintess Aria looks at Ivonna and she smiles.

"Hero Ivonna and Hero Trevor, what can I help you today?"

Ivonna grabs the scroll that Eveth gave her, Saintess Aria looks at it and she furrows her forehead, and then she looks at one of the priestesses.

"Can you bring me that scroll in the archive room?"

The priestess tilts her head.

"The scroll?"

Saintess Aria nods, and the priestess bows and runs hurriedly to retrieve the scroll. Saintess Aria isn't opening the scroll and just holding it in her hand. Ivonna is confused and Saintess Aria just smiles at her. Saintess Aria looks at the gazebo and then looks at us.

"How about we sit down in the gazebo for now? There is something I would like to ask first to Lord Trevor."

We both nod and the three of us walk into the gazebo. Saintess Aria sits in the middle, and she looks at our Amruchis playing in the garden. She looks at all the priestesses that are curious about them. She smiles and nods up.

"If you all want to check them out, go ahead. They are what you think they are, so go ahead and use this opportunity to play with the Amruchis."

All the priestesses are looking at the Saintess with excitement. They bow and then walk into the garden and play with Azrael and Aeris. After all the priestess left us alone, Saintess Aria looks at me with worries.

"Lord Trevor, I heard about the rumors that you killed innocent people. I would like to ask you if that is true because ever since I heard those rumors, my heart hurts, and my mind has never been in peace."

I smile and then start explaining everything to her. After she heard the truth she immediately sighs and smiles in relief. The priestess comes back with a scroll in her hand and she hurriedly gives it to Saintess Aria, then Saintess Aria tells her to play with Azrael and Aeris as well. The priestess then runs toward them and plays with the other priestesses.

Saintess Aria is holding both of the scrolls and rubbing the texture of the papers. She raises her eyebrows with surprise.

"They are the same."

Saintess Aria looks at Ivonna.

"Lady Ivonna, where did you get this scroll, and who gave it to you?"

Ivonna nods.

"The Saintess, Eveth. She gave it to me and told me to give it to you."

Saintess Aria is shocked and covering his mouth with both hands. She immediately opens the scroll that Ivonna gave her then she reads it immediately and thoroughly. She's done reading the scroll and puts it on the table with a worried expression. She looks at Ivonna.

"Lady Ivonna, do you know the contents of this message?"

Ivonna shakes her head.

"No, I don't dare to read it since Saintess Eveth didn't tell me to read it and just to give it to you."

Saintess Aria stands up from her seat while grabbing the scrolls and looks at both of us.

"Please follow me to the archive room, there is something that you need to know."

Saintess Aria calls all the priestesses, she tells them to take care of Azrael and Aeris while we are going to the archive room. They all bow with understanding and then the three of us leave the garden with Saintess Aria leading the way. We both have no idea why Saintess Aria looks so worried after she read the message, but it must be something concerning.

We are entering the archive room and Saintess Aria is walking toward one of the bookshelves. She looks around to find something, then she grabs a book and shows it to us.

"Please read this."

We both are looking at each other and then Ivonna grabs the book. She opens the book and reads the first paragraph of the page.

"The dark age of Baltizar Wezeis."

We both are surprised and look at Saintess Aria. She nods and lifts the scroll.

"Saintess Eveth is warning us about the history of the dark age that will repeat itself."
