Ezra's series of curses made everyone shut their mouths. The Empress-to-be had just cursed, but to be honest, what was even more shocking was what Celine Diamond said previously.
How could Celine, the daughter of a Duke express her opinion that Sorcery was art created by gods meant for an unknown heavenly reason? It was absolutely outrageous. People could even assume it as Celine Diamond was publicly trying to defend Sorcery.
"Celine Diamond."
Ezra, who was still pointing her finger at Celine, had lost control of her emotions.
“How in the hell could you ask such a stupid thing? Do you even know what Sorcery can do to mortal beings?”
Ezra lifted her face and looked down at Celine, taking a deep breath.
“It was a kind of forbidden art that would corrupt and eat away at your soul, destroying any reason and common sense you had. Sorcery would ta
SLAP!With one harsh move, Ethan dragged Ezra back and slapped her hard on the face. The guests gasped, and their faces turned pale. The future Empress had just received a hard slap in front of everyone.“What did you just say? How dare you accuse my sister of being a Sorc–”FLASH!A blue aura exploded—creating a tornado that glowed like one frozen blue dawn. When Ethan came to his senses, he was already drowned in that aura, shocked to see Ezekiel had strangled him by the neck and lifted him into the air.Ethan gripped Ezekiel's arm that was choking him like a rampaging monster. He gritted his teeth in anger and fear.“Let go of me, Ezekiel Euclase!”Ethan could feel how hot the blue <Aura> fire was, exploding from Ezekiel's body. It had been a long time since people had seen the prowess of the E
[The Crown's Diamonds]This popular novel, which became a best seller in the world Cecilia was from, was the setting of the world where Celine Diamond lives.As Cecilia mentioned, in this novel, Celine was the main character who was overpowered. She was the daughter of the Duke, and she was a genius.She captivated readers with her methods that instantly solve problems and fight crimes with her money and power. She punished those who dare to stand in the way of her justice mercilessly.As the cold and badass main character, Celine was also loved by everyone, because since childhood, she had always been the best in the Euclase Empire.She would even be crowned the next Duchess because her brother who loved her relented and handed her the title of the clan leader.It was said that she had a cold demeanour on the outside and was warm on the inside. Only in front
Fake Saintess.No one had heard these words since time immemorial, because these words were a new phenomenon.Ezra did have talent, but not talent as a Saintess. In the Beryl family, all girls who possessed great <Aura> talent would not be directed and trained to become an <Aura Master>. Rather, they would be directed to become a Saintess.But how?Faith. An abstract concept. But this was the most important thing in the awakening of a Saintess.There were two ways humans could receive divine approval. That was either by being chosen directly by the god himself, which was a very rare occurrence or to worship the god and proving unwavering faith.First of all, one had to make sacrifices.Ezra also sacrificed to become a Saintess. And the sacrifice was so great–that her 'faith' in God would no longer be shaken. It could be
Cecilia sat inside a closed room. Her hands were shaking, and no matter what she did, she couldn't calm down. Was everything over? Would everyone now really try to kill her just because she supported a Sorcerer and defended the Sorcery?Don't be ridiculous!Why was this world so peaceful and bound by strict rules anyway?! Why was it that in other fantasy novels that she read, many people used black magic but were instead respected and feared?!Was everyone in this world so hypocritical that they didn't want to open up to Sorcery just because of the negative effect Sorcery had on mortal beings?Sorcery could be a very effective weapon against enemies! Sorcery users could rule the world–Cecilia understood now. This was all because the people in this world were not like her. They had no ambition at all! Cecilia was sure, that if more people mastered the Sorcery, then surely t
Seeing things getting out of control, Cecilia tried to take a chance and explain. But just as she was about to start speaking, Ezra cut her off. "I can feel Holy Power from you," said Ezra coldly. “Are you trying to reason that as a Saintess, you wouldn't be able to use Sorcery? Is that your excuse?” Ezra's words shocked everyone, even Cecilia herself. “If you are indeed a Saintess, then the fact that you are defending the Sorcery will only make things worse. I beg for more severe punishment. A Saintess who defends Sorcery should be punished with the same punishment as a cannibal,” Ezra didn't stutter in the slightest. "What do you know about Saintess, Miss Beryl?" Cecilia asked angrily. “You ask what I know about Saintess?” Ezra didn't change her cold expression. “I don't know much about Saintess, except that we have faith that Gods do exist.” Ce
“I lost my father's trust. I even lost faith in myself. I was afraid that one day I would lose myself again.”“Saintess Ezra said that Sorcery was corrupting my soul by eating my negative thoughts. Then… the effect will multiply all those negative thoughts and destroy me from within.”"And what hurts the most is, even after I realize I've been hit by Sorcery, I'll be blaming everything on myself, adding to those negative thoughts without even realizing it."“Saintess Ezra was right.”"Everything she said is the truth, and you have to believe her."***Cecilia sat in the carriage, in front of Ethan who was looking at her so gently. They only passed the Capital gate after the Emperor let them go after making some deals with them.“What will happen to us now, Elder Brother?” asked Cecili
“As Your Highness ordered, we have sent hundreds of spies and our most loyal confidants to try to find out more about Duchy Diamond's involvement with the Sorcery.”Axias heard his secretary's words while taking a deep breath."Even though I'm already old, in this year alone, there have been two threats of war..." he muttered quietly. He leaned his face against the palm of his hand on the table.“Do we need to go and send a warning to Padparadscha Duchy and Almandine Duchy that we are preparing for war?” the secretary asked.Axias thought for a moment.At this time, Padparadscha was in the process of transferring power from the old generation to the new generation. It could be said that the South is currently experiencing turbulence. Meanwhile, Almandine had another problem.Axias had been trying to keep an eye on Harriet and her husba
Heath felt he was drowning in the middle of a vast lake. However, he felt he could still breathe normally.In the depths of the lake, he saw the reflection of his childhood.Harriet, his sister who still looked very young, was giving him a lap pillow, stroking his hair. Her eyes were closed, but she was telling a tale about the Great Knight.As Heath recalled, it was a very thrilling story. The Great Knight on a white horse braved the hordes of sabre-toothed monsters, opening a path for light to enter the darkness.And when the light had lit up the universe, he saw the vegetation spreading luxuriantly in all directions. The world then turned into heaven.“Elder Sister, when I grow up, I want to be a Knight,” Heath said after hearing the story.Harriet raised her eyebrows, surprised.At the time, Heath had no idea that his word
