Chapter 888: Chapter 735: The Fifth Person_2

Next, seemingly not finding what he was seeking, his enthusiasm appeared somewhat diminished.

And the very next moment.

A hand suddenly landed on his head.

That hand gently rubbed his hair.

“The Magical Beast Army will attack by tonight at the latest; I need to keep an eye on that deserter’s movements, so I’m afraid I won’t be able to spare any energy to deal with that Ice and Snow Elf. Little Black, be a dear and help me contain her.”

The Holy Maiden of Light said while patting the young man’s head.

Luo Kun was stunned, then suddenly grabbed the hand on his head and looked at her with a displeased expression: “What are you doing?”

The boy’s eyes flickered with ferocity, and the aura of Black Dragon Breath brimming with murderous intent was released without restraint.

The Holy Maiden of Light paused, her face calm and holy, showing no fear of the young man’s aura; in fact, the next moment, she directly wrapped her hands around the young man’s head and pressed it to her chest.

Pff!

“Ah, don’t be shy, Little Black~”

The Holy Maiden of Light said with a radiant smile: “You’re still just a three hundred-year-old child, and this must be your first time in the human world, right?”

Luo Kun’s human guise made him appear to be only thirteen or fourteen years old, and not very tall either.

Thus, he only reached up to around the Holy Maiden of Light’s chest level.

Having his head pressed directly against her chest, not only did he feel her chest soft against his forehead, but his nose also caught the scent of blood with a sacred aura, the smell of blood stimulating the dragon clan instincts within him.

The flesh and blood imbued with the Power of Faith is indeed different from that of ordinary people.

His previous pursuit of that elf.

Was mainly because the Power of the Dawn Faith within her excited him, knowing just a few bites would ensure this body would never go hungry again.

Why did the black dragon enter the world at this time?

Because the functions of his body were also at their limits, the strength of the bloodline belonging to his kin on Black Dragon Island had all been absorbed; he was too hungry, and so he left the island to come to the human continent.

To be here.

Not just for the transfer of the Black Dragon Bloodline.

But also to find food.

Luo Kun couldn’t help but lick his lips.

His eyes were blood red, like a vampire lurking in the shadows, with the blood scent lingering on the tip of his nose awakening his suppressed instincts.

But suddenly, the Holy Maiden of Light slapped the top of his head and pushed him away.

“You little pervert.”

The Holy Maiden of Light spoke with a playful smile, showing no fear of the dangerous aura emanating from him. After pushing him away, she left the Underground Temple directly.

There were still matters to handle outside.

And the deserter to be dealt with, no less.

Previously, the Holy Maiden of Light had detected the presence of the Dawn Faith, but she didn’t take it seriously.

Even when there were problems at the Heresy Tribunal, she had no reaction, only feeling a bit of regret for overlooking this oversight.

But unexpectedly.

The envoy of the Heresy Tribunal took advantage of the Ice and Snow Elf’s attack on the City of Light to damage the Statue of the God of Light.

The church in the City of Light is situated at the center of the city.

And behind the Holy Court, there stands an immense Statue of the God of Light.

That statue was erected a thousand years ago, after the Holy See of Light helped the Varo Royal Family fend off the Elf and Dragon Clan invasions, and when the City of Light was founded on the Western Continent, the statue also stood since then.

The statue is fifty-five meters tall, standing for a thousand years, and has never fallen; it can be seen from any location within the City of Light.

With no defenses.

Because neither wind nor rain, nor thunderstorms could inflict any damage to it—it remained holy and solemn as always and was a place of pilgrimage for believers from all over the continent.

Yet today.

A slash had appeared on the forehead of this statue, a crack left by the blade of the Heresy Tribunal envoy.

The Holy Maiden of Light called them “God Fallers.”

…

Luo Kun had followed that Ice and Snow Elf to the City of Light.

However, when that Ice and Snow Elf sneaked into the City of Light and then caused chaos by using flying Magical Beasts, he did not show up to stop her; instead, he watched the chaos unfold with great interest.

And then he was discovered by the Holy Maiden of Light.

Subsequently, the city’s City-Protecting Magic Array was activated, the Ice and Snow Elf withdrew first, while Luo Kun found himself trapped inside the city.

Although he did not care much about it anyway.

The church had just experienced a fierce battle.

The Magical Beasts did not attack the common folk within the City of Light; instead, they all rushed towards the central church in the city, like moths to a flame, turning to ashes the moment they drew near. Nevertheless, they kept coming relentlessly.

This move…

was to create an opportunity for the traitors of the Heresy Tribunal to escape.

The first thing he did was attack the unguarded Holy Maiden of Light, only to find that he could not kill her at all, and was forced to leave and attend to his proper affairs.

Then, while attempting to destroy the Statue of Light…

he was suddenly smacked away by the Black Dragon’s palm, not knowing where he had been flung to.

That palm strike also landed on the Statue of the God of Light.

But the statue was unharmed.

Except for the crack caused by the traitor.

…

“Do you know why he is called a ‘God Faller’?”

The Holy Maiden of Light returned to her palace, allowing her handmaidens to change her out of the clerical long skirt stained with blood, as if no one else was present.

Luo Kun had just arrived here.

And witnessed this scene.

The Holy Maiden of Light calmly continued, “The Heresy Tribunal is deeply mired in blood and sin. Such an existence should be rejected by the glory of the God of Light, yet they also fight for His glory.”

Luo Kun disdainfully averted his gaze to other places.

“The Divine Spirit will not abandon any follower who believes in Him faithfully. Slaughter will make them fall into darkness. Let the Choir’s Divine Music bring back their sanity.”

The Holy Maiden of Light had changed into a new outfit.

Then she turned her head towards him, “The Divine Spirit is calling His followers, but if the children no longer wish to listen to the Divine Spirit’s voice, they will be forever fallen.”

Luo Kun: “Oh.”

The Holy Maiden of Light stepped closer, gently lifted the young man’s face, her eyes shimmering with a golden glow, serene and holy.

She smiled gently, “Listen.”

Luo Kun’s expression darkened for an instant, his eyes reflecting the golden brilliance in the eyes of the Holy Maiden of Light.

The Dragon Clan instincts that were stirring within him were forcibly suppressed, like a curse, his craving for flesh and power was caged.

The caged giant dragon instinct attempted to struggle free but was bound by that glimmer of light.

A normal dragon, whose murderous intent might have subsided.

But such a sensation only made Luo Kun more irritable.

He loathed the restraint!

As the young man’s rebelliousness began to rise, the Holy Maiden of Light had already let go of him, then gently laughed, “That’s how the Dragon Clan dies.”

The giant dragon Clan has no faith.

What they crave is the instinct for flesh and power.

But a thousand years ago, just like the giant dragon Clan despised the Ice and Snow Elves for deceiving them, leaving a curse on the Sacred Tree of the Elves.

The Holy See of Light also left a binding force on the Dragon Clan.

This kind of binding that suppresses instincts has made it difficult for the giant dragon Clan to pass on their bloodline power to their descendants, and even harder to breed new dragons, leading to their extinction.

Does the giant dragon Clan hate the Holy See of Light?

Of course, they hate it.

But they are like livestock bound by ropes, hating and fearing the master who tamed them, and without the courage to resist the bonds that restrain them.

The Holy Maiden of Light said with a smile, “To our Church, your Dragon Clan are ‘God Fallers,’ violent, impatient, without reason, fond of flesh and slaughter, a group that needs to be enlightened.”

Luo Kun looked at her with a sullen silence.

“Of course.”

The Holy Maiden of Light went on to say, “You don’t need to believe in the God of Light for this, after all, you have no faith.”

The giant dragon Clan had no faith, so after binding the dragon’s bloodline instincts, the Holy See of Light could not be bothered to subdue the Dragon Clan and left it to fend for itself.

Luo Kun suddenly let out a bizarre laugh, “You really aren’t worried that I’ll eat you.”

The Holy Maiden of Light spoke peaceably, “Little Black is the only one left. What a well-behaved child you are to be eating things willy-nilly, what if you get a stomachache?”

Then she suddenly reached out and hugged the young man’s head to her chest, her face glowing with maternal radiance as she tenderly stroked the top of the young man’s head.

“Be good, once we deal with that troublesome elf, sister will find you a nice little dragoness to be a perfect match for you~”

“…”

The Holy Maiden of Light smiled gently and holy, her eyes filled with a golden glow looking out to the sky, her gaze landing on the gigantic Statue of the God of Light.

Staring at the barely perceptible crack at the statue’s brow, she seemed to radiate a fierce aura this moment, her smile exquisitely beautiful yet dangerous.

“Of course, we must also deal with that audacious traitor!”
