Chapter 367: Chapter 226: I Fell in Love with Him_2
Upon these thoughts, the expression of the Bright Moon Goddess was still frosty, but her voice softened slightly: “So be it, I forgive your sins.”
Of course, that was a lie.
As for this contemptible individual before Her, She wished nothing more than to tear them to pieces, yet considering the body being used was one She cherished, the idea ultimately could not be carried out.
Her reason for saying so was to soothe Tiya’s despairing heart, to give a drowning person the last straw to cling to, so they could face their end in a less violent manner.
Who said Divine beings couldn’t tell lies or deceive?
After all, religion is the biggest lie in this world.
The immaculate moonlight flowed gently in all directions, and in the Spiritual World, the girl’s consciousness, already nearly transparent, grew increasingly feeble.
At this moment, all she wanted was to lie down and sleep soundly, to calm her anguished and shattered soul.
Never to awaken again.
But before that, she had one last thing to say.
“Goddess, at this point, I have no right to ask anything from you, nor do I wish to bargain with this body… but there are two things, no matter what, that I must tell you.”
Tiya’s forehead touched the cold ground as she spoke in an utterly humble manner.
Her voice trembled slightly, haltingly, as if it took every ounce of courage she had.
Upon hearing this, the Bright Moon Goddess frowned slightly.
According to the information provided by the Church, the girl before Her had always been nurtured by the Church, and her thoughts were insidiously altered, much like a doll that wouldn’t resist, manipulated by Sister Gretel and others.
Yet although it was their first meeting, Beatrice sensed something off.
It was as if the girl before Her had undergone some drastic changes during the short night of the Divine Moon Gap.
The reason was simple.
From the girl’s words, She could hear a barely there, subtle threat.
In the past, it would have been impossible for her to rebel against her revered Goddess or the deeply relied upon Church.
Beatrice was silent for a few seconds, then calmly said: “No one will come to save you, and it’s downright impossible for anyone to take your side… Regarding this, you should be very clear, right?”
“I… understand.”
She understood.
All too well.
The reason she was speaking now was not to stall for time, nor did she harbor any impractical hopes.

Ultimately, after the Church’s facade of tenderness was thoroughly exposed, she had been left with no place to belong, and even the meaning of her very existence was destroyed.
In addition, her only good friend was imprisoned in the Religious Tribunal, facing the death penalty, and Lynn was suffering great injustice, besieged and hunted.
Tiya did not delude herself into thinking that anyone would save her, as that only happened in novels and operas.
She only hoped that before her death, she could pass on her final goodwill to the world.
Sensing the girl’s emotions at this moment, Beatrice said indifferently: “Speak.”
“The first thing… I beseech you to let the Church spare Louise, even if punishment is inevitable, at least… preserve her life.”
A stranger.
Beatrice quickly dismissed the name.
She had no interest in things that did not interest Her and did not want to concern Herself in the slightest.
But for now, at least, She would respond with a lie to mollify her.
“I promise you.”
Beatrice responded.
At those words, Tiya’s body trembled slightly.
After a moment, still maintaining a prostrate position, she voiced her other request.
“The second thing…” Tiya’s voice trembled slightly, “by all means, Lynn Bartleion is innocent, it is all my fault.”
“It was I who shamelessly made a move on him, seduced him actively, committing unforgivable sins.”
“Goddess… I hope you can spare his life.”
Tiya’s fingers clenched the cold ground tightly, her spine as if it were broken.
She was so humble, as if she had given up the last of her human dignity, grinding her pride into dust and casting it into the earth, pleading for the Bright Moon Goddess to show leniency.
However, observing this scene, the Bright Moon Goddess was not the slightest bit moved, even silently sneering.
Because it was truly ludicrous.
Wasn’t Her rage to such an extent precisely because of the existence of one named Lynn Bartleion?
As for the other person in Her memories, now somewhat fading and blurry, seemingly named Xiya Asolan, She wasn’t sure why, but She didn’t feel such strong disgust, instead, there was a faint, inexplicable fondness.
Thus, all of the Goddess’s murderous intentions were solely directed at Lynn.
How could he possibly escape the wrath of a true Divine being?
“I promise you.”
The Bright Moon Goddess watched the humble girl with her forehead tightly against the ground, a mocking smile on Her lips.
This, of course, was also a lie.
But by now, none of that mattered anymore.
“…”
Hearing the Goddess’s promise, Tiya did not exhibit the expected excitement or panic.
On the contrary, she fell into an unprecedented silence.
However, the Bright Moon Goddess gradually lost Her last shred of patience.
Sensing that the girl before Her seemed to have given up the last bit of control over her body, She no longer hesitated, slightly lifting Her hand.
