The Villainess Will Leave Without Any Regrets - Chapter 149

The fire that carried the imperial family on its back spread widely.

Devotees flocked from all over the country to form a doorstep in front of the temple, and they demanded an explanation of the temple.

However, they chose silence because internal divisions had reached a critical level.

Just like when they made Skellus a symbol of curse.

“Priest Beryger! This way.”

The high priest in charge of the temple forbade private meetings, but mutual contact was already taking place under the water.

“So, are you talking to those outsiders?”

The priests of the School of Skellus, who lived outside under the protection of the imperial family, were openly referred to as outsiders. In fact, it was because the priests knew it.

It wasn’t really God’s fault that Skellus was expelled from the status of the imperial god, it was the temple’s trickery. It was a secret that had been kept for hundreds of years in the temple.

However, knowing the weight of the repercussions that the truth would bring, most chose to keep their mouths shut.

Often, some people talked about the current situation as a curse from God.

They said that because they abandoned God arbitrarily, they would receive a natural punishment.

Priest Beryger cynically thought that it was also man-made.

“I have been contacted.”

“What did you say? As you all know, I am not of any conviction. I just need to be able to end my life in this one-man temple!”

Trian, who summoned Priest Beryger, stood still, unable to hide his nervousness.

A few decades ago, those who took the lead when expelling the outsiders out of the temple, had only a personal goal. Beryger looked at Trian with a blank look.

Even if the Skellus School was accepted anyway and took the upper hand in the temple, they would not be able to expel all those who were inside.

It is not possible to completely abandon the tradition and history of the empire that the priests have kept.

No matter how much the devotees were outraged, none of them demanded that the temple be closed.

The temple was a pillar. Once the temple, which has been serving as a spiritual supporter, is completely excluded, there is no place for them to lean on when they are having a hard time.

In the first place, believing in the temple’s words and killing or abandoning the children born on the day of Skellus, didn’t it come from a sincere belief?

And a small number of believers were arguing that the current situation was also Skellus telling a lie in order to destroy the empire.

Nevertheless, it was an undeniable fact that the great power of the temple would be replaced.

Beryger said to Trian.

“Of course I know.”

In a slow tone, Trian brushed off Beryger.

“I decided to convey my will to those outsiders? I will join you in opening the gates of the temple!”

“Of course I think that it doesn’t matter to the outsiders.”

“It doesn’t matter?”

“Except for the hard-liners who do not recognize Skellus, it seems like they are in a position to accept it. It also means that except for those who are at the top right now, the rest won’t be expelled.”

“Is that really true?”

“They said so. It seems that the emperor also highly appreciates the loyalty and devotion the temple has shown. Don’t worry, he’ll never forsake us.”

“Skellus helped us… … !”

Beryger smirked. Those who criticized Skellus not so long ago are now praising Skellus.

Even if it is hypocrisy and pretense, they will eventually survive here.

Everything went smoothly. As Cade had planned, Timur’s mist was gradually clearing.

Even the older nobles who were upright will now change little by little.

As Cade arranged, new forces were slowly coming up to Timur. It won’t take long for them to occupy a central position.

After opening the closed door of Timur and making Vincent as the second capital, it accelerates a bit…….

‘Then…….’

Cade rubbed his forehead. His ideal as an emperor was gradually coming true.

Cade’s reign will be called the Age of Turning, or the Revolution. However, the ideal of human Cade…….

It was collapsing.

‘Abella is definitely not okay.’

She was enjoying her daily life with a casual face, but apparently Abella was falling apart.

With a smile on her face, she tried not to show off to others, but those who watched were choking in the heart at the precariousness of the present state.

Amerigo fell into silence.
