Chapter 301 - Marriage


After she clapped her hand, a light suddenly enveloped the entire area, making everyone close their eyes. It took them a few minutes to open their eyelids again. This time, Rhea was no longer standing in front of them.


"My wounds are healed!"


"I can… I can walk!"


The shouts and cheers echoed outside of the carriage.


"When you said you wanted something high profile… I didn't expect you to actually heal people." Mo Li mused, his eyes were outside of the carriage. Earlier, after Rhea did her thing, she immediately walked back towards the carriage.


Slowly, the carriage moved. "They are kneeling…" Mo Li added.


Rhea nodded in response. She didn't have a choice but to expose all of her abilities. The more people believe in her, the more difficult it would be for the church to frame her. This is also a great way save the Larsen Family.


Once she saves the Larsen Family, she was planning to leave and save the villages before going to the north and met the leader of the rogues, the female lead.


Good thing she still has about eleven more months to accomplish this.


She closed her eyes and leaned against the velvet seat inside the carriage. She never expected that Mo Li would have such a luxurious carriage. Rhea only opened her eyes when Mo Li informed her that they are already at the gates of the palace. If her estimation was right, it took them about twenty minutes to get her from the crowd earlier.


"The Emperor is letting our carriage inside?" she asked, surprise. Horses and carriages are not allowed in the cobblestone pathway that would lead them to the main palace. Even the Crown Prince is not allowed to ride his horse inside the gates of the palace.


Only another king could actually bring a carriage inside.


"You are not royalty, but a saintess, a priestess. The Emperor would do everything to get you by his side." Mo Li quickly explained.


Of course, both the emperor and the church wanted power. And seeing that everyone had been practically worshiping her, the choice is pretty much obvious. She wasn't invited in with her carriage because she was a saintess. She was allowed in because the emperor wanted her by his side.


At least Mo Li was blunt enough to say it.


Mo Li helped her out of the carriage and the two walked under a walkway lined with columns of concrete that supported the luxurious roofing. She couldn't help but wonder how long did it take for these people to finish this type of roof. After all, there were a lot of carvings in it.


This palace is actually different from the one that she stayed at. This place looked really bright and shiny. Perhaps it was because everything was painted white. The columns, the tiles were also white.


Against the sun, it looked sparkling.


Did these people use something to make it glitter? Perhaps a mineral that they mixed with concrete?


"Your Highness, the Second Prince Mo and Saintess Rhea are here!"


When the herald announces their presence, the knights that guarded the humongous entrance slowly moved, opening the door for them.


"Are you alright?" Mo Li held her hand and made it hold his arm. Since earlier, she wasn't seeing a thing, so he was worried if she was feeling a little sick.


"Never better," Rhea responded and gripped Mo Li's clothes before the two took their first steps towards the… courtroom?


Alright, she didn't know what this place is called, but it was wide and spacious. This time, she couldn't see any flooring as it was covered by a red elegant carpet. The large chandelier above them was especially attractive. It sparkled against the sunlight from the two huge windows that can be seen opposite the huge entrance. In the middle of those two huge windows that reached the ceiling were two seats.


Gold and red, with velvet and what looked like a lion in between them.


Rhea and Mo Li bowed and greeted the man and woman sitting on the throne. Of course, Rhea also greeted the Bishop and the familiar knight that stood next to the bishop. There were also other people that she recognized, like her sister and Larsens. A few other people whom she doesn't recognize were there too.


"You can raise your heads." The man sitting on the throne said, and the two complied.


"Saintess… I am sure you are already aware of the identity of the people inside this room?"


"Most of them, your royal highness."


The Emperor smiled before he stroke his white mustache. "I understand. Then… shall I let the crown prince introduce everyone?"


The Crown Prince that he was talking about was actually the man standing next to her sister. Earlier, she didn't even noticed the guy! Sure he was good-looking but definitely not someone noteworthy. She smiled at the blond man who bowed towards her.


"Your highness…." Rhea said. "I'll be troubling you."


"Ah, the saintess is really humble. I am sure you already know about Bishop Atlas? He was here with Grand Knight Holmes. Next to the Grand Knight is Duke Philip from the Serr Family of the east. Next is Duke Mo… And there is also…." Slowly the Crown Prince introduce everyone before he said, "Everyone is here because we wanted to meet with the saintess. Please forgive the current atmosphere, everyone was just really excited to meet you."


Meet her? Then does this mean that they are not here to celebrate her engagement? She immediately eyed Mo Li, who only smiled at him in response. He… He is helping her, but… not really helping her.


He must have known that she wanted to handle everyone all on her own. But how did he know that? She couldn't remember saying those words to him. In fact, she was thankful that he offered to help protect her.


"Saintess… the church…" Before Bishop Atlas could say another word, Rhea immediately interrupted him.


"I came here for a reason, Bishop." Despite her indifferent tone, there was a sweet smile on her face. "I recently received a vision. Of my marriage."


"Saintess?"


"What did she say?"


"Marriage? What marriage?"


"I thought the sybills can't get married?"


The murmurs that followed made Rhea's smile gentler.

Happy 300 chapters! Yey!
