3RD PERSONS POV ᯽HOLY TEMPLE

Libertia was a little flustered at the sudden actions of the said Pope that her heartbeat picked up phase, she just hopes no one could hear how fast her heart is beating.

She was in absolute shock that her hand started to get cold while, Pope Remier noticed the sudden drop of her temperature he stayed and held her hand hand on his without looking at her. When she finally calmed down and realized her hand were still held by him, she took it back and declared coldly "I don't think, I can be of any help your Holiness, as I am just a mere revived soul and not a Saintess, so please, rise, besides, I'm no longer royalty."

The Holy man rised and looked at the woman infront of him. Platinum hair, mysterious purple eyes and porcelain colored skin that made her look like she was dotted on by the Gods and made her beauty rage war and make her as the price to whoever wins. But, considering the woman's ice-like personality, she'd use the victor as a stool and reign over the world on her own.

"Your highness is still a princess, no matter which world you come from"

"I've thrown away that title a long time ago" Libertia says stubbornly.

"Then, would you rather have the title of an Empress?"

"What?"

The Pope only grinned, something unusual for a Holy man to do, as Popes are usually emotionless vassals. "Hm.. I suppose that title is a lot more fitting for you altho, I don't think the Empire is gonna even take a glance at The Holy Nation- but, you seem like an exception, especially when they hear a new Saintess has been brought down on this land-"

He turned around and opened the curtains that hid a huge arched window behind showing her a small but, prosperous capital. High stone walls decorated with gold guarded the Holy Nation from outside forces "-you will pose as a threat to them"

When the Pope heard no response, he looked back to see Libertia staring at him with an expressionless look. She looked like a statue who's eyes are so intense that people would be scared to look at.

"Hah..."

Libertia airyly laughed, not a hint of gaiety present "First a Saintess then an Emperial threat? Do you think I'm a God? A Diety? I honestly was given a change to live peacefully but of course that'll never happen. I don't know what you are planning but I cannot help you as I am also helpless-" she walked toward him her feet a little cold because of the marble floor and stood before him, she bowed her head and said

"Thank you for your kindness your Holiness but, I'm afraid I'm powerless and have no identity- I'll leave the temple whenever you order and-"

"Why are you saying these things? Aren't you the Butterfly of Akhlys?"

At his question Libertia lifter her head and looked at him, her eyes filled with remorse and guilt. 'The Butterfly of Akhlys' wasn't an actual butterfly but, it was actually a person with dark magic who controls the butterflies of deadly poison and that person was Libertia who realized she had a thing for butterflies especially purple ones when she was younger as they seem to appear randomly when she thinks about them, but she told no one about the strange occurrences. Not even her mother.

She thought the butterflies were just attracted to her as she thinks that the butterflies looked like her as they seemed intimidating when you look at their almost black wings that shows a very deep purple when you observe them closer, she internally smiled when she thought about how they were as pretty as her.

But, that wasn't the case. She wasn't the charming, innocent Princess that attracted pretty things rather, when somebody once harassed her, she silently asked for help for anybody while trying to stop her tears from coming when a pretty butterfly landed on the persons shoulder and the person started to vomit blood, their mouth was bubbling and a black like liquid spilled from their lips, they turned pale and fell on their knees, clutching their throat to try and breath then, they collapsed infront of her.

Mortified she ran away from the scene and never left her room for months yet, no one ever questioned her.

She promised herself to never use her power not even when she faced death.

The type of magic she use definitely does not a fit a peaceful place like the Holy Temple.

"No"

"What do you mean, Your Highness? This- is the only way to protect the Holy nation. You-you were sent here for that very reason, you are our Saintess"

"Stop being delusional! Your Holiness, I am not as powerful as you think. Now, if you want I'll leave this place and as thanks I'll give you a magic artifact that contains some of my magic altho use it wisely as to not harm other people" Libertia waved her hand and a surge of dark magic can be felt. The temperature of the room dropped. Her magic can be felt even outside that the Holy Knights wanted to go in and check on them but, it vanished not even a moment later.

A deep purple crystal appeared on her hands, it shined brightly and anyone who sets their eyes on it would be drawn to it.

"Here- break it if you get attacked"

She placed the crystal on the Pope's hand and turned around, just wanting to leave the place not even thinking about where exactly she is or if she'll even survive in this unknown world or where she'll go or the fact that she's barefoot, after all, she thinks the Pope is more capable as he is basically also chosen by the Gods.

"Saintess! please I beg you- they have taken the Temples powers! I cannot protect this Nation by my own! So, please-protect us from the Obelian Empire"

Libertia froze not only because the Pope was on the ground kneeling and clutching a piece of her gown but also because of what he said.

'Obelian Empire....Huh'
