“Can you prove your innocence, Lorena Temberlaine?”
said Archbishop Henry, lowering his eyes. As shown by the height of the referee’s seat and the height of Lorena’s standing, the relationship between the two was clear.
Archbishop Henry had already branded Lorena a criminal and drove her relentlessly.
Cardinal Livius pretended to be neutral, and only Victor intermittently uttered a word pretending to defend Lorena.
Judging by the wink Viktor sent me, it seemed he had already persuaded his own father.
However, Lorena, who does not know that fact, is only trembling like an aspen tree at the sight of even her friend becoming a cold judge.
“Seo, do you want to be verified by the saintess candidate… … !”
Lorena said in a dying voice. It was the last resort I gave her.
Now, as per my script, Bell appears and proves that I don’t feel any demonic power from her, and the judgment is over.
“… … !”
The saintess candidate is judged for her crime. The meaning of this request is great.
This is because the saintess candidate, God’s representative, can never be deceived, and if the saintess is declared guilty, it will not end with a simple disposition.
“Do you know what will happen if the saintess candidate admits to sin? Lorena Temberlane.”
“… … Yes. I understand that you will be punished by burning in the torch.”
To Livius’s question, Lorena sighed and answered.
Of course, Livius and Viktor are completely unaware of the conversation between Belle and Lorena.
He was supposed to be acquitted on his own if he stayed still, but it was hard to understand that he was taking such a risky gamble.
But what can I do?
We didn’t know that things would turn out like this.
Trying to overcome the crisis with individual play ended up twisted like this. This is why communication is so important.
The most pitiful person is, of course, Lorena. She doesn’t know anything, she just says what I tell her to do. shaking hands and feet.
“haha. Are you really willing to take that risk?”
“In the case of Mr. Lorena, there is a utilitarian purpose, so through the referee, you will be able to clear your name.”
Livius and Viktor eagerly sent signals.
―If you just leave it to us, you’re innocent!
However, there is no way that Lorena knows that.
As for her, she had no choice but to proceed as discussed with Bell and me.
“No regrets.”
Archbishop Henry also smiled absurdly and began consulting with the other judges. The decision was made right away.
“Tell the saintess candidate. There are people who have requested the sanctification of judgment.”
Livius said to a priest.
The priest immediately left the courtroom, and soon returned with a candidate saint.
Bell walked towards the center of the referee with a mechanical appearance, pretending to be a total stranger even after seeing us.
“Candidate Saint. Sanctified Judgment.”
“I know.”
Belle stood beside Lorena with natural steps. According to the law, Lorena knelt at the feet of the candidate saint and took the posture of prayer.
Bell made eye contact with me without anyone noticing. I nodded very slightly.
The saintess candidate closed her eyes. Belle began playing the faithful saintess candidate.
Look at the way he prays calmly. If Belle were a person in the real world, she would have won the Best Actress award at least once.
From the outside, Bell was truly a 100-point saint herself.
The atmosphere became increasingly heavy.
As Bell prayed earnestly, even I, who knew that nothing was going to happen, began to get nervous for some reason.
It was then.
Hwareuk-!
“Oh oh!”
“The torch, the torch has appeared!”
Golden sparks rose from the floor where Lorena was kneeling, enveloping her for an instant.
‘uh?’
The torch appears… … ?
It can’t be. Sanctification is the flame of God. It is a sacred thing that appears when God judges and purifies evil.
In other words, it was an authority that Bell, who did not believe in God, could not use.
“Kyaaak!”
Breaking my common sense, God’s power was done.
Lorena crouched in surprise. It seemed as if the torch was burning Lorena’s filthy body and soul.
However, the torch disappeared into the air like a flower that blooms and withers very briefly.
‘What happened.’
The referee was over before I had a full grasp of the situation.
Lorena was fine.
I looked at Belle Irusi.
A halo of gold fell like pollen on her shoulder, and her pale purple eyes were burning with gold.
‘That’s definitely a sign that appears when God’s answer is received.’
At this moment, Bell was not a fake saint woman candidate, but a saint herself.
“… … uh, what happened?”
Henry got up from his seat. I checked Lorena’s condition until my eyes fell out.
“If this is indeed a Magi-infected person, the holy spirit of God must have consumed her spirit and body.”
Lorena’s lips turned blue. Because I really wanted to experience death.
“Huh, but. lady candidate. The author is obviously tainted by Magi… … !”
The Archbishop protested in disbelief.
“Archbishop. Are you rebelling against the saintess candidate’s decision?”
Then, as if he had been waiting, Viktor stepped out.
Although he is still a bishop, this is the referee.
A place where the decision of a saintess candidate becomes God’s will. To protest against this was tantamount to rebelling against the god of light.
“Even the bishop did not confirm. That woman is certain to be infected with Magi.”
“then. The torch must have burned Lorena Temberlaine. Does that sound come out even after seeing the miracle just now?”
Even Livius, who was worse than that, went out. The voice was furious.
The torch of judgment performed by the ‘candidate saint’ seemed awe-inspiring even to the cardinal.
It was a 2:1 fight from the beginning.
However, since the torch proved his innocence without burning Lorena, Henry’s argument lost even more power.
An absurd, but not absurd, judgment was made.
ok
Henry groaned and sat back down.
“It seems that opinions are unified.”
Viktor smiled lightly and asked for permission from the judges. Livius nodded without hesitation, and Henry reluctantly agreed.
Without further objection, Viktor quickly struck.
“Lorena Temberlane. Your innocence has been proven. Now open your chest proudly.”
Lorena’s classmate, who had become a bishop before she knew it, declared with a wide smile.
Lorena cried. Henry bit his lip. Victor and Livius laughed. Applause erupted from the audience. that I have seen a miracle
Bell watched all of this silently with eyes burning like a torch.
Judgment ended safely.
* * *
I just finished greeting Livius.
Lorena’s legs gave out and she sat down, but Viktor, a classmate she hadn’t seen in a long time, took her and disappeared somewhere for a while. There must be a lot to say about this and that. Maybe Viktor will get a lot of swearing from Lorena.
In the end, I was left alone, and that was only for a moment.
Our saintess candidate is looking for me.
“Ah, is that so?”
“Yes. Please follow me.”
Looking at the way he spoke in a slightly commanding tone, it seemed that I had no choice. In the Vatican, she must be a king or a god.
I shrugged my shoulders and followed the priest’s guidance to the throne room of the candidate saint.
“Did you call, candidate saint?”
“… … did you come Wake up.”
As soon as I entered, I nodded and got up.
Belle was sitting on a luxurious sofa with a benevolent smile on her face. There was black tea in front of the sofa where she was sitting, and smoke was rising as if it had just been served.
Unsurprisingly, Bell went well with the saint’s outfit. Is modeling like that? In many ways, it was a perfect match.
Ah, to put it simply, Bell is beautiful. I couldn’t deny this.
“When the two of you are alone, feel free to talk. That’s more comfortable.”
“I am uncomfortable.”
When I see that beautiful figure, I am in awe. No matter what, the candidate for the saintess is the candidate for the saintess. Moreover, since the place is the Vatican, it is a law not to make things that will get caught.
“Huh. Did I hope for something too big? I see… … . Then leave me alone.”
What if I’m careful?
Belle, who should be most careful, relaxes as soon as she is alone with me, and almost lies down on the sofa with her hips stretched out.
Her appearance suits the saint’s uniform, but her attitude doesn’t suit her at all. Truly, she is an amazing saint.
“I’m sorry. Because it’s such a tight place. I want to rest even when I am with my seniors. Whiyu.”
Belle laughed as she breathed deeply, like someone who had held their breath for a long time.
It was absurd at first, but I couldn’t feel sorry for this guy’s inner situation.
Yes, take a break for now.
I decided to be informal for as long as possible, hoping to make Bell feel as comfortable as possible.
“Acting, you’re good at it.”
After taking a sip of the tea, he put down the teacup and said, Bell laughed with a slightly tired face.
“yes? What kind of acting?”
“It’s an act of praying to God.”
what was agreed upon. Don’t really pray, just pretend. And to declare Lorena innocent.
But the sight I saw… … It wasn’t smoke. It was a scene where the holy power appeared when the god of light actually responded.
“Ah, ah. It wasn’t acting.”
“… … then?”
“I really prayed.”
Also.
“Well… … God really answered. Surprisingly. I can’t remember the moment when the torch appeared.”
I can not understand it.
Did you suddenly develop a sense of faith that you didn’t have before and communicate with God?
Because of Bell’s unbelievable stories, it was difficult to tell what was true and what was false.
Why would Bell cheat on me?
Is there a ‘variable’ that I don’t know about? Or did the faith still remain?
It was difficult to understand anything.
Belle Irusi has obviously lost her most precious sister, Sister Olivia, and is so disappointed in God. In addition to this, she is not fulfilling her role as a saintess candidate properly.
It was Bell who had been neglecting me until not too long ago because she couldn’t bless me. Could it be that in a matter of days, the faith that didn’t exist was born.
In this moment when everything is dizzy, there was only one truth.
‘Bell doesn’t lie about things like this.’
I don’t know who you’re kidding. There was no point in lying to her about this. He wasn’t that kind of person in the first place.
For now, Bell hasn’t confessed to me, so he’s pretending to be calm.
‘Belle is also surprised.’
Looking closely at her expression, Bell herself seemed surprised. He said he had no memory of that time.
In other words, it is true that he received God’s answer, and it seems that Bell did not predict it either.
‘What happened.’
A variable I had never thought of was embarrassing, but there was nothing that would be a big problem right away. In the end, Lorena was acquitted without a problem, right?
If the god of light proves what it is, there really shouldn’t be any problems with Lorena.
‘Rather good.’
The sooner Bell wakes up, the better it is for me. Seeing that he had returned to his usual bell now, he hadn’t truly awakened.
“As expected, you are a saintess candidate. You are always virtuous.”
“four? Ahh… … haha. yes. Thank you.”
Belle straightened up and sat down to drink her tea again.
In fact, the silence went on for a long time because we weren’t close enough to talk sadly with each other.
Embarrassed, I opened my mouth first.
“Anyway, thank you so much for helping me. Candidate Saint.”
“No. You did what you had to do. And it wasn’t really a problem.”
“Still, I want to give you a small reciprocation.”
Since he owed a debt, it was only natural that he should repay the favor like a noble.
“… … Oh no.”
She pretended to refuse, but Bell’s insides were already in check.
It is obvious that the salivary glands have already been stimulated and drool is flowing.
“Candidate Saint. Please protect my honor as a noble.”
“ah. Hmm. Yes. If you say so much… … .”
Bell tilted her head slightly to the side and avoided my gaze.
And he says it shamefully.
“Yeah… … Then, will you take me to the dessert house in Sepien Village later?”
“You mean ‘Tearful Apple Pie’?”
“Uh, how… … ?”
not sure what
Sianna is a bitch.
Cain is a jelly candy.
Belle’s apple pie.
I know the favorite food of the heroine candidates because I’ve seen it all the time.
“When class starts, I’ll treat you to apple pie.”
“Joe, Joe… … .”
.

“Hey boy! You are still driving incidents and accidents!”
Victor smiled and slapped me on the back. After becoming a bishop, is it because of my mood that my hands have become spicy? What are priests usually doing?
“What do you mean?”
My ex-roommate whom I haven’t seen in a long time. It was only natural that the blunt country was welcome.
I laughed innocently and exchanged small talk with Viktor.
“I am really busy these days. I really want to drink.”
Then, all of a sudden, he grabbed my sleeve and started crying. He is truly a serious man.
“Aren. remember It’s good to go to the academy. really.”
“I know.”
There is no way that I, who graduated from college in reality, would not know that fact.
When you start preparing for a job, the ‘real’ hell begins from then on. I realized too late that I was happiest when I was studying.
After listening to Viktor’s whining for about 10 minutes, I got into the carriage. The black horse cried loudly.
“Mmm, crazy man… … How did you think of coming to the Vatican in something like this?”
“Do you have any problem?”
Despite my embarrassment, I pretended to be as calm as possible.
However, he couldn’t stop his face from burning with all the attention.
The epitome of shamelessness, to the point where even Viktor is frightened… … nothing more to say
“Also. You weren’t normal either. Would you say you are my roommate? Anyway, I’m proud of you!”
“please.”
Anyone can see that the wagon of a nobleman with second grade disease was dressed up at will. I was frustrated by the fact that I couldn’t say anything in response to the fact that Viktor wasn’t normal.
“then… … See you next time.”
“Ugh. okay! Didn’t you say you were going to the grand festival next semester? I’ll go cheer you on!”
“yes. thank you.”
Viktor shook his head and smiled as he saw me walking away. That is undoubtedly laughable. by the way
“Hey, let’s lower the flag and go.”
I said quietly to the coachman.
* * *
“Aren!”
Rescue Lorena safely and return home… … No, I returned to the silver tower.
The lily of the valley flowers that had been planted before were in full bloom in the tower, showing off its appearance befitting the name of the silver tower.
Shiana also overcame the dark memories of the past and returned to the tower.
It’s thanks to my persuasion, but the biggest reason is that Xiana decided to improve.
After escaping from the Crimson Witch, Cyana overcame her trauma and was moving forward one step at a time.
I find my dream, I try to be independent, and my obsession with myself has disappeared a lot.
So, I couldn’t help but adore Siana, who was in my arms like now.
“How have you been!?”
“yes. Nothing happened.”
“Thank you, Aren.”
“yes? what?”
“Just everything.”
Shiana rubbed her face against my chest.
Well, even if he didn’t say everything, he seemed to know her heart.
I smiled and stroked Siana’s hair.
“Sister, I’m glad it worked out.”
“yes. thanks It’s all thanks to Siana.”
Sianna smiled and held Lorena’s hand. Thanks to Siana, the awkward air was blown away.
“sister! Then I’ll show you around the studio!”
“yes? uh huh?”
Cyanna dragged Lorena by the arm and went to the tower.
The workshop for Lorena was completed, but Ciana was the most excited.
Cyana and Lorena go into the tower, and I stay with Annie. Annie was struggling to keep herself from laughing.
“animated film… … ”
“Sin, pooh! sorry. I’m a doryeonnim… … ”
I looked at Annie with eyes full of displeasure. Still, Annie didn’t stop laughing. No, it was impossible to stop.
“ha. Help me. young master.”
“animated film… … really.”
“Seeing the young boy dating, I should be able to endure it because I am happy.”
Annie said, wiping her tears.
I would be ashamed of Sianna doing that, but it’s really crazy to see Annie do this too.
“It’s not love.”
I was straight
Of course, it didn’t work for Annie. Where did the master’s dignity disappear to?
“Yes. Of course it is.”
And Annie handed me a well-wrapped letter.
“Because there are competitors.”
“What else… … .”
Turning the letter over, I could see why Annie said that.
Two golden sheep facing each other.
“This is a letter from Lady Cain Abella.”
Annie laughed as if she was having fun. It must have been the look on his face when he saw the absurd last drama.
I checked the inside of the letter. It was about inviting them to their house in a fortnight. Even the seal of the head of household was stamped on it. It means that Cain did not invite him personally.
“ha. animated film. What do I do?”
it’s a burden
It’s embarrassing to say this with my own mouth, but I’m currently getting the attention of two women.
For the time being, Shiana can somehow get over it, but Cain seemed quite serious enough to even come forward with his family.
However, there is a concern that if he refuses the invitation, his relationship with Cain may change.
Because the main story isn’t over yet. Besides, it was hard to deny that I was quite attached to Cain.
How the hell did this happen? Tears really cover my eyes.
“young master.”
“yes. animated film.”
Annie, who had just been teasing me, started to look like a savior. Annie seemed to give a clear answer.
“The quicker the choice, the surer the better. If you’re vague, you’ll both be missed.”
Annie said with a serious but light laugh.
I really never dreamed that such a painful moment would come in my mother’s solo life.
“under.”
I looked at the letter with resentful eyes even though it was a pathetic letter.

It’s been 15 days since I started researching the ‘Philosopher’s Stone’ in the Silver Tower.
3:00 p.m. as usual.
While continuing the boring research while scratching the itchy horn part,
“found!”
Shiana exclaimed.
