Chapter 1416 A Kiss From A Goddess

"Why? Of course, you would not understand, Exalted Priest Gracia. You are the Goddess' favored child, so you will never understand what I felt when the Goddess chose you to be her Exalted Priest. The youngest priest with no prior knowledge and education, and yet she chose you to be her voice and face just because of your pretty face!"

Gracia was shocked to hear that because Risty and the other four High Priests were just like parents to her. They mentored her, taught her a lot, and even spoiled her. She did not expect that they harbored such feelings toward her.

High Priest Estia who tried to kill Tang Shaoyang. The man in prophecy who would release Goddess Lunea from her seal. That meant High Priest Estia most likely had become a demon as well.

"What are you guys doing? Kill them all!" Hearing the order, the scream came out from the outside of the sacred place.

The demons emerged from the priest and the knights and started the manslaughter.

"What are you going to do, Gracia?" The former High Priest smiled, "Are you going to come out and save them? Or will you stay inside your impenetrable wall?"

Gracia had a bitter smile and shook her head, "Goddess Lunea did not choose you because she did not want you to sacrifice your life. Once Sir Tang Shaoyang finishes breaking the seal. I have to serve him for the rest of my life. That's why she chose me instead of choosing one of her High Priests who have devoted their life for her."

High Priest Risty was shocked to hear that. Goddess Lunea never mentioned those parts to them.

"So you really don't know about that? I think you guys love and care for me because you all know," Gracia was shaking her head in regret. It was not a big deal to hide it from The High Priest. But that small thing had become bigger as it cost with the betrayal from the two High Priests.

"I think I understand why Goddess Lunea did not say it to you. She thought you were fond of me and might not agree with the agreement made between her and Tang Shaoyang."

"I don't remember that part of the agreement," Tang Shaoyang tapped the Exalted Priest's shoulder.

Exalted Priest Gracie turned her head to the voice in shock, not expecting Tang Shaoyang to finish breaking the seal. She looked at the seal and saw that seal was engulfed with the same energy.

"So what should we do to them? Should I kill them? Those demons are still killing your people."

The fight broke out outside of this. He could hear the scream and the explosion from the spell. From the scream, it seemed the demons were winning the fight.

"What about the seal?" Gracia looked at the seal, looking concerned.

"We can leave it as it is. The seal will break in three to five minutes. We don't need to worry about the seal. I don't think anyone could hurt her while she is inside the seal, no?"

Even though he focused on breaking the seal, he overheard the conversation between the two priests. He did not remember about Lunea giving him one of her priests. Anything else, she offered herself to him, not one of her priests which he did not really remember whether he accepted her or not.

"Is that true, Gracia?" High Priest Risty asked as her tone turned softer.

Gracia turned toward High Priest Risty and called her swords back, "Ask yourself, High Priest Risty. Didn't you feel weird the way Goddess Lunea chose her Exalted Priest? You must remember what she prioritized when she chose me, right?"

High Priest Risty recalled the past, and she was inclined to believe in what Gracia said. Now she heard it from Gracia, then everything in the past made sense. She had been wrong all this time about Goddess Lunea.

Tang Shaoyang was left confused right now. He did not know what to do with these two and the demons outside. He did not hate the demon as the other humans did. Many humans tried to kill demons in sight, but that was not him.

As long as the demon did not try to harm him, then he would leave them be. Those demons were fighting the priests and the knights of The Temple of Light, not him. He was not related to the Temple, there was no reason for him to take action.

"How cruel for you not to help my people, Tang Shaoyang! Aren't we an ally?" A soft and gentle voice broke the tension.

Gracia turned around and knelt on the ground. Even Risty who had become a demon also knelt in the presence of the Goddess.

Tang Shaoyang turned around, "I guess you are right. We are an ally, and I should help my ally. First, should I kill her?" He pointed at the kneeling demon.

Lunea was freed from the seal and floated a few centimeters above the floor. Her white robe fluttered along with her white hair as she approached Tang Shaoyang. To his surprise, she held her head and kissed him on the lips.

Tang Shaoyang was shocked as he did not really expect her to do so. Especially in front of the people who revered her as a Goddess. Their lips parted and she went to Gracia, hugging her into her chest, "It's been difficult for you, child. I am here now, and I will take your burden."

She caressed Gracia's hair for a while before she faced the demon, "The demon is for me to take care of. You can get rid of the demon outside before we proceed with the oath, Tang Shaoyang."

Tang Shaoyang waved his hand and headed out of the room, leaving a private space for the three.

Esteven gated to one of his bases at the border of the Osligia Kingdom. He then rushed to the main base, and he stopped breathing for a moment at the sight in front of him. The thing that crossed his mind was immediately to call for reinforcement.

No matter how strong he had become, he could not face a dragon alone.
