Academic Gathering with Lich Colleagues

Chapter 116 The Death of the Holy Light
"Newcomers, remember to disguise your identity. Now the outside inspection is strict, so don't expose it."

The awakener squeezed his chin. "You iron maiden is pretty good. You are a pile of broken bones and it's inconvenient to move. Why don't you skip around."

"Ok."

The awakener was very happy to hear that Ariane had accepted his opinion.

"Come on, rookie, maybe you can make a fortune because of this, and be the top card in the masquerade."

Under the inexplicable words of the awakener, Ariane put the lid on the iron maiden and pressed the ring.

. . . . . .

Tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk.

When Arian arrived at the main hall, his unique appearance became the focus of the audience.

Whoa, that guy is so cool!
Awesome, why didn't I think of that!

Looks like it's the winner tonight.

Our gift is like a curse, not even death can separate us.

I was like a monkey entering the exhibition hall, and got applause from everyone.

May the sad soul in this iron maiden rest in peace.

Among the many messy thoughts, that voice, like a clear spring under the sun, infiltrated Ariane's heart that was on the verge of drying up.

Tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk tuk.

came to that person.

White beak mask, black coat like a crow's feathers.

Ariane saw a black wave representing panic, and the gentleman dressed as a plague doctor saluted tremblingly.

"Anle, sir."

A small and delicate light soul.

Hello, Mr. Plague Doctor.

. . . . . . . .

The appearance of Mr. Raymond was like a major earthquake, interrupting the originally stable enrollment ceremony.

It also broke Arian's heartstrings, and she fell into indescribable shock.

His Majesty Raymond has also become a Lich!

His Majesty Raymond actually became a Lich.

A wave of anger appeared in Ariane's heart, and then he was secretly happy that he was actually going to be the companion of Raymond's crown.

With complicated emotions, Arian walked towards Raymond.

"Praise the Holy Light, Your Majesty Raymond."

He bowed to Mr. Raymond who was being rubbed against the corner by Mr. Dean's bone staff.

With the huge light shield on his head, Raymond stared at the Iron Maiden in front of him.

There was a light shining in the gap of his helmet, watching the iron maiden's body.

"My sister, my Holy Light, what happened to you!"

Hearing the voice of His Majesty Raymond and the concern seen by the eyes of truth, Ariane had a good feeling.

"Three locks, praying nun, Ariane Pombai, I pay respects to you, praise the Holy Light, Your Majesty Raymond."

The addition of Ariane made Raymond's arrogance a lot stronger.

"Tonight is the victory of the Holy Light, Elian, the Holy Light Almighty Church welcomes you."

"It is my honor, Your Majesty Raymond."

"Tonight is destined to be celebrated, but our strength is still too weak."

Ariane recalled the light she saw not long ago, and offered her suggestion.

"Your Excellency Raymond, in fact, tonight, I am not the only one who is fortunate enough to be integrated into the Holy Light. I saw a gentle soul at the rally. The filth and evil of the undead did not pollute him. He may be worth it."

"Really? Immortal! Don't fight, haven't you heard! Your house is bombed, go to the third floor and have a look."

. . . . . . .

After returning from the recruiting meeting, Ariane arrived at the Chapel of the Holy Light.

With the help of Raymond's power, Ariane's body returned to what she should have.

The slender bones, slender phalanges, and white skull with teeth that were originally neat looked extremely terrifying at this moment. Facing the stained window carved with angels, Ariane saw the flames in his eye sockets.

"Is this the Lich?"

Mr. Raymond washed the vacant Iron Maiden with holy light, and the eulogy he recited washed away the fear born in this instrument of torture.

"You need a new disguise, Ariane. Your bones have just healed, and she is as immature as a newborn baby. You need certain equipment to strengthen it. For your next disguise, it is best to choose a humanoid costume that fits you. Sadly, my armor is significantly bigger."

"It doesn't matter, Your Majesty Raymond, I happen to know where there is a new disguise." The little Kallen seems to be still practicing in Cassandell, and I should still be able to use the set of silver knight armor inherited from the family.

Raymond knocked on the Iron Maiden's steel plate, and Ariane's attention turned to him.

"Brother Ariane, after being transformed by the Lich, your power has changed."

"There is not only the soft power of holy light in your body, but also a seed of shadow has formed in your No.16 spine."

"You became, a Divergent."

Those who disagree, the traitors in the eyes of the Holy See, and those who believe in the Holy Light and other powers at the same time, this is simply a blasphemy against the Holy Light, and the fate of those who disagree is usually a trial.

Ariane felt a sense of sadness, her fingers pierced through her chest, touching the completely black bone, that position was very familiar to her.

"Are you going to judge me? Your Majesty Raymond."

Raymond clenched his fists, "It depends on your story, Ariane," he touched the girl's head on the top of the Iron Maiden, crying silently in the hollow eye sockets. "Tell me, sister, what did you go through before you were alive."

"I am a nun from Cassandelle. I have the gift of seeing people's hearts. My teacher called it a miracle. After my training period was over, he kissed my forehead and arranged for me to go to Dulai Abbey, which is A city that is at odds with the Holy Light. Before leaving, my mentor told me, [Child, your power is doomed, your bright future is destined, you will become the link between people's hearts, and you will pull us back to the place where we are biased towards beasts. To the golden age before the birth of the Tower of Babel, people trust each other, rely on each other, you, are our light.] With this belief, I embarked on a journey."

"But I was wrong. What hinders us is not just different words, but also selfish hearts that have become beasts. When I pointed out their true desires, there was no thanks, no recognition, only the anger and dirtyness of being peeped in my heart The shame of exposing your desires in full view. Because of my arrival, spit and intimidation came to Durai Abbey, and my companions cowered and hid in the corner, and they were also complaining from the bottom of their hearts, complaining about everything I brought Panic, disgusted with the upheaval I caused to their muddled lives."

"One day, the lord of Durai saw me."

"You know what I'm thinking, Sister, he's smiling like a joke."

"Treason, impurity, war and fame. You don't love your wife, you covet your niece, you rebel against your monarch, you are planning a treason."

"Under the light, I declare his guilt."

"But it was I who was punished. I was framed as a criminal madman, a corrupt witch, and a black-hearted slut. People applauded my sentence, and my colleagues only kept silent with inner peace."

"I was tortured by the Iron Maiden, crying in pain all day and all night, until the last steel nail pierced my No.16 spine and pierced the pillar of my life."

"I thought that as a lich, I would resent everything I have suffered."

"But I have seen you, Your Majesty Raymond, and the suffering I have suffered is nothing compared to the insult you have suffered."

"A miracle not of the mortal world, a vanished heaven, a short-lived sun."

"The Death of the Holy Light, Your Majesty Merlock Raymond."

　In the Bible, when humans were building the Tower of Babel, God separated their speech accents, making them unable to understand each other, causing differences among people, and making it impossible to complete the construction of the Tower of Babel.
