The Author Is Speechless

Chapter 78: Crown Princess

For the temple invitation, Viktor left with Adonis and Kathryn to attend an important event. But Viktor's situation was not good at that moment.

"Master, should I install more pillows on your seat?" Adonis asked.

"Yes please. Why can't they do anything about this carriage? My whole body is vibrating."

Seriously, it's been 7 years since I came here but I can't get used to the carriage shaking. But no matter what, I can't invent the car in this world. I should leave them to the hands of the rising engineers.

Besides, I'm not even sure whether I can save this world or not. Because my sleep and laziness comes first. I don't count the world as my priority.

The temple held a ceremony to choose the new crown princess by the prophecy of God. On the same day, a new head priest was chosen by God and it said that he will be blessed by a new prophecy. The prophecy will have a clue about the next moon of the kingdom.

So, it was natural that all the noble families were invited.

The carriage stopped in front of the temple and a group of knights came to escort Viktor inside the guest room. The temple was filled with a crowd of people and it was difficult to spot the characters of his book. So he ignored it and went inside the room to change into his temple robe.

Viktor looked at Adonis in a temple robe and smiled a little, because of his race. It was funny that a demon of destruction was wearing a temple robe to attend a holy ceremony.

But his astonishing look was enough to hide his real identity.

"Adonis, aren't you feeling uncomfortable?"

Adonis fixed the holy moon locket of his robe and answered that he wasn't even feeling weird. Instead, he complained about how long the white cape was.

Now that everything's ready, I shall go to the prayer room to meet with the pink guy.

Last night inside the temple.

A man with a long white robe was sitting in front of the statue of the goddess light at midnight. The moonlight was reflecting on the man's shiny pink hair which was visible from every corner of the prayer room. He was praying with whole mind and soul to satisfy the goddess and in that peaceful moment, the door to the prayer room opened.

The man opened his eyes.

"I assume that you are the new head priest from the prophecy."

"Lady, you should join me if you truly love the goddess. It's the peak hour for your prayer to be heard by her," the man answered.

"Priest, mind if you turn your attention to me for a second?"

"Yes, my lady?" The young man turned his head behind and saw the glowing red eyes. She cast charming magic on him and his eyes also became red. And his expression changed.

"My! My! Look at you priest! How gorgeous you are! You are so handsome!"

The lady leaned on his body while taking off her corset to charm him more effectively. She pushed his body onto the floor and sat on his stomach to have a brief conversation.

"Look at me. Who's your master?" The lady asked.

"You, my lady."

"Then. Who's the crown prince?"

"You, my lady."

"Then. Whom will you announce as the crown prince tomorrow?"

"You, my lady."

"Haha!! Hahahah!! Hahah!!!"

The priest lying under her body had no expression on his face. He looked as if he was charmed by her magic. But in reality, he was just acting to enjoy the pleasure. The hidden smile was so tricky that she didn't even notice her charming magic doesn't work on him.

The clock was ticking quickly inside the prayer room, but their bodies weren't tired at all. The moonlight fell on the priest's face covered by the brown hair of Elena as they were enjoying their fullest in front of the goddess statue.

In the last hour, Elena left the prayer room with her scruffy clothes by leaving the sleeping priest on the cold floor.

The moment she left the room, the priest opened his eyes and said,

"How interesting! I should inform my master about this. But for now, I should be thankful for the delicious meal."

He took his half-drenched robe of his and left the room after a short prayer to the goddess he follows.

Back to the current ceremony...

"Master, should I wear a mask to cover my face too?" Adonis looked at the mirror and fixed his fair to look good.

"Yes, master Viktor told you to cover your face for the time being. Did you forget, sir Adonis?" Kathryn gave him a white small silk fabric to cover his face. But his eyes were still standing out.

"Master…"

"Don't worry. You look good. Probably better than me." Viktor looked at his shiny golden eyes and became jealous. So he looked again but Adonis's beauty aura was so bright that he nearly became blind.

This damn light bulb…

The other priests start to call the guests for the morning prayer to gather all in front of the goddess statue. As instructed, all the people gathered in the prayer room to start the holy ceremony.

The new priest walked in front of the crowd and cleared his throat to start talking.

"May the goddess of light bless you all. I am Raphael Nao. The new head priest of the imperial temple. By the grace of our goddess and her power which was blessed upon me last night, I've come up with a conclusion. But before that, we will pray to our goddess for the peace of this kingdom. Please, stand up and place both of your hands on your chest to start the prayer."

Viktor looked to his left and saw the gaze of Alberto on his face. He was right behind Elena with the other male leads on her both sides. So he thought that he must be jealous.

He turned his head to the priest and saw an unsettling smile on his face. When he noticed Viktor was looking at him, he smiled sweetly and completed his prayer to announce the prophecy.

"The goddess blessed us with another prophecy last night. But I'm sad to tell you that I can't announce the crown princess for the sake of our kingdom. So, the prince should wait until I get the next prophecy. Or else, the kingdom will face a great tragedy."

The crowd started to chatter because of their curiosity and the crown prince stood up to complain about the priest's proposal.

"What do you mean the crown princess will cause a great destruction to our kingdom? Are you saying that she isn't good for our kingdom?"

All the novels turned their attention to the prince. The prince looked as if some words slipped out from his lips. He was clearly mentioning someone.

The priest smiled and asked, "Prince, what do you mean by those words of yours? Are you saying that you already promised someone without the permission of the goddess?"

"Love is something that nobody can stop. Not even the so-called goddess of yours!"

The crowd started chattering even more at those words of the prince.

"Today, right here right now, I will declare who's going to be the crown princess. Elena Pearlroy will be the crown princess. And that's final."

The crown prince dragged her out of the temple. So, all the temple priests and nuns became frightened. They became so sure that the kingdom was doomed. All the people will perish from diseases and suffering.

When the crowd started to complain about the prince's opinion, the priest stood up and said, "My fellow followers or the goddess of light. Please calm down and listen to my words. The goddess will bless us with another prophecy tonight. So, believe in the goddess and the kingdom will be unharmed."

Now, the civil war will begin between the male leads.

Viktor went inside the temple office after the prayer room became empty and took a seat in front of Noe.

"What was the real prophecy?"

Viktor asked the priest who was busy pouring two glasses of wine. "Hmm. Let me be clear. No prophecy was blessed upon the kingdom for the past seven hundred years. The gods are not responding to any of our prayers. They abandoned this world."

"So you knew."

"Yes. Because there are no traces of any gods. And the imperial family blessed by gods are just shitty concepts. Behind every crown from generation to generation, it's just money and money. They are just making up this goddess shit to control the kingdom."

Viktor stayed quiet and took the glass of wine from the table.

"So, what's your plan now? I did what you told me to."

Viktor took a sip of his fine wine and said, "Postpone the prophecy. There will be a war between the imperial family and duke Alberto."

"Okay then, I'll go and clean up some mess that I made yesterday night. Enjoy your drink, master."

Viktor leaned to his chair and looked above to see the paintings on the ceiling. The painting indicated clearly that the god left the world many years ago. The world is doomed. So, he smiled a little and said, "Adonis, will you still search for my reincarnated soul after my death in another world?"

"I am your loyal servant. So, I will find you out even if you are reborn in another world. I will still follow you even if you lose all of your memories."

"I see. Then, buy some root beer when you come over to my place."
