Turning over to the ground, Lilith stood still and several paladins came immediately.

"Saint Lilith, welcome back, Lady Guangming has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Well, I'll go right now."

Leaving the griffin in the care of the Paladins, Lilith followed a guide to the rear of the Cathedral of Light, where there is a magnificent and holy round tower building named 'Light Tower', where the Holy Maiden of Light lives. place.

After passing through the layers of protection, Lilith entered the tower of light, and then the guide retreated, and a white-robed nun led Lilith into it, bypassing the main hall, and Lilith came to the rear of the discussion. in the hall.

The door opened slowly, and Lilith entered under the nun's signal, and then the door closed, leaving only her and a woman in a pure white dress. The woman was standing in front of the rows of bookshelves, looking at something. , she didn't seem to notice Lilith's arrival.

Seeing this, Lilith took the initiative to salute and said.

"Teacher, the students are back."

This sound came into the ears of the Holy Maiden of Light 'Celecia Nixtin', whom Lilith called her 'teacher', and upon hearing this, she closed the black book in her hand and turned around.

"Welcome back, my lovely apprentice."

Celicia smiled. Facing her beloved, she lost her usual majesty as a saint, but as soon as the kind smile like an elder appeared, Lilith's prepared 'resignation' words were a little unconvincing. Out.

But after hesitating for a while, Lilith decided to speak.

"Teacher, I..."

"Do you know why I called you here?"

Celicia interrupted Lilith's words.

"I didn't return for a long time, which made the teacher worry."

"How dare you say it, do you know how annoying those lousy old men are in my ears every day because of this?"

As she said that, Celesia came over and lightly tapped Lilith's forehead with her fingers.

Lilith also understands that many people are jealous of her teacher's position as the 'Holy Maiden of Light', and the delayed failure of her 'alternate saint' has given them an opportunity to speak, and the teacher will definitely help her during this period. Carrying a lot of trouble, so...

"Sorry for bothering the teacher."

"Don't worry, it's not that you don't know about your teacher and my methods. I mainly want to know why you haven't come back for so long."

"This…"

Lilith was a little embarrassed to speak.

"Is there any difficulty in that?"

"..."

After a long silence, Lilith suddenly knelt on one knee and gave a standard knightly salute.

"What are you doing?"

Cecilia didn't know why, but Lilith explained everything.

"Teacher, I'm very sorry for disappointing your cultivation. I'm here to resign this time."

After saying this, Lilith lowered her head deeply, and at the same time she was ready to meet the teacher's scolding, but...

"Hey, your wings are hard, do you want to fly solo?"

"I…"

"Here, take it and go."

As she spoke, Cecilia handed out a black tome and a gold and silver medal, and when she heard the teacher's words, Lilith suddenly raised her head with a surprised expression on her face.

"Teacher, you!!!"

"You called me teacher, what else can I do?"

Cecilia looked helpless, but there was a calmness in that helplessness, as if she had seen through everything.

……

Ten minutes later, Lilith walked out of the Tower of Light under the guidance of the guide, and when she left, she looked back and looked at the second 'home' she had once.

Then look at the 'Silver Cross' in hand...

This is the symbol of the Holy Maiden of Light, representing the supremacy of the Pope's 'Golden Cross', and recall the words of Cecilia.

"You can go, but you have to bring things with you. With this medal, no one can restrict your freedom. At that time, I will explain to the public that you have my permission to perform the experience mission, but the only thing is that the identity of the saint is You can't shirk it."

While thinking, Lilith murmured.

"Is it inescapable..."

Thinking of this, Lilith properly put away the Silver Cross, and when she returns in the future, she still needs to return it to her teacher, but she doesn't know when.

But take out another thing...

There is a powerful sealing magic engraved on the black book cover, and there is nothing special about it from the outside, but Cecilia has repeatedly asked that this 'book' should be carried on her body whenever she is It cannot be discovered by outsiders, not by anyone.

Although Lilith had doubts about this, she finally chose to trust the teacher.

With the medals and ancient books, Lilith rode on the griffin, and after showing the 'passport' of the Holy Maiden of Light, Lilith left Valen City without any hindrance. From today, she will be free.

But in the same way, behind this freedom is also the shackles of fate.
