Cursed Immortality-Chapter 678 Carnage in Siren Hymn Temple (2)

?"What the hell is going on!? Who dares to attack the holy temple?!" A beautiful siren in a white outfit, who was emitting a bloodthirsty aura, roared furiously as she was looking at the reports of mass destruction, and even the western part of her own home was blown into smithereens a few moments ago.

This siren was none other than the Polaris High Priest of the Holy Polaris Region, and right now, she was going hectic not because her people were dying; it was because her hidden treasure troves were also just blown up, and those lowly followers were taking full advantage of this situation and looting everything to their heart's content.

This not only made Polaris High Priest's heart bleed, but she was panicking because once this matter of secretly keeping a portion of the temple offering reaches the main temple, her head would roll in her goddess's stone feet.

'No! I can't report this. I need to remove my traces quickly, and only then will I report it back. I hope those hateful bastards of the other regions won't interfere!' She desperately prayed sincerely for the first time in a long while.

At this moment, another siren holding a spear adorned in golden battle armor quickly barged in, making the Polaris High Priest jump in trepidation because she was too agitated.

The siren in armor couldn't help but sigh, seeing the Polaris High Priest losing her mind. She couldn't help but think that she had brought it upon herself. She shouldn't have given in to the devil's whispers, and now, many innocent lives were being harmed.

"My lord, we need to seek help from the main temple!" She solemnly requested.

Polaris High Priest breathed a sigh of relief when she saw it was only her Chief Region Templar. However, after she heard her request, her expression turned dark, and she retorted, "Absolutely no! We can handle this on our own! There's no need to bother the Holy Temple for such a trifle matter."

The Templar frowned as she was already expecting this much, "Forgive me, my lord, but it seemed someone has already done it, and I'm afraid the main temple has already dispatched Holy Hymn Templars!"

"What?!" Polaris High Priest screamed in disbelief and trembled with trepidation, "W-who!? Who dared to undermine the authority of Priest Lord!? Sacrifice those heretics to wash away their sins! And what the hell were you doing?!" She ordered furiously.

The Templar's eyes went cold as she clearly didn't like this behavior and replied impassively, "Forgive me, my lord, but that might be impossible at this moment, and I was also helpless in this matter, I'm afraid."

"What, why?" Polaris High Priest ground her teeth, and she found her Templar annoyed for some reason.

The Templar replied with a hint of killing intent filled with hate and fury, "The thing is, my lord, the Holy Polaris Region wasn't the only one who suffered this abrupt terrorist attack. Nine more suffered the same kinds of attacks out of eighteen large regions, including the Holy Polaris Region.

"Over half of our territory was attacked in just two days. This kind of thing is impossible to hide from the main temple. Now, I just received news that the Holy Hymn Templars will be here in a few hours.

"They already know about the attack on the Holy Polaris Region; it didn't matter if we reported it or not. But I'm afraid if you didn't report it, they might suspect something uncanny about you, my lord. After all, it's been three days, and you're still keeping it to yourself."

The Polaris High Priest paled, and she shuddered just after thinking about what kind of blunder she had made. If what the Templar was telling was true, then she would be sacrificed even without any investigation for hiding such a matter.

"Q-quickly! We are going to report this post hastily to the main temple! We were busy rescuing those pitiful souls and praying for those who returned to the goddess' embrace. Do you understand me!?" The Polaris High Priest righteously and meaningfully stated as she quickly left towards a hidden chamber to contact the temple.

After witnessing this scene, the Templar couldn't help but scoff inwardly and lamented, 'She's no longer that sharp-

witted and devoted High Priest anymore. She's cursed by the goddess for damnation. Even I can easily trick her now. I guess it's about time to clean up the territory!'

Her eyes turned deadly cold and filled with holy radiance. As someone who only served the Goddess, she didn't have loyalty to anyone else but the Ocean Oracle, the messenger of the Goddess.

Despite growing up with the Polaris High Priest and as her personal Templar, she has no loyalty or any feelings of empathy towards her. She was a true fanatic and blinded by her faith.

Now that she finally had the chance to punish the Polaris High Priest for all her sins toward the goddess, she would not miss it, and there were many like her doing the same thing right now!

In the secret chamber of the main Siren Hymn Temple, the Holy Maiden Nataly was kneeling in front of the membrane-like veil, where the silhouette of Ocean Oracle Mercy was present at his moment.

"What's this strange situation? Do you figure out who's behind this huge attack? Is it related to the empires?" Mercy questioned in a gentle yet extremely perplexed tone, and she sounded exhausted for some reason.

"Forgive me, Your Holiness! But this incompetent descendant couldn't unravel anything regarding this sudden attack. However, I've already contacted the three empires and made them swear an oath, and unexpectedly, they swore the oath of innocence without any hesitation. Please instruct me what to do now." Nataly replied with a helpless tone.

"Hmm? Did they take the oath of innocence? Then it's most likely they weren't behind this…" Mercy's uncertain voice rang. 𝓯𝘳𝘦𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝓃ℴ𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝓬𝘰𝑚

Nataly hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Your Holiness, I have another piece of information, but I don't know whether I should believe it or not. But now that the three empires had sworn the oath of innocence, I couldn't help but continue to think about it. Please judge it yourself; I'm too stupid."

"OH? There's something else? Tell me, you don't need to blame yourself for this my child, you're too pure for this filthy world." Mercy gently said, which made Nataly's entire body tremble with ecstasy.

'She's praised me!' Suddenly, an absurd smile flashed past her face, but Mercy could see it since Nataly was kneeling with her head down!
