Each time Lloyd’s footsteps drew closer, the nobles froze and collapsed. Then they started to beg , pouring out tears and runny noses.
“Spare, spare me!”
“I, I have committed a mortal sin, Grand Prince. I will never do that again. Please forgive me!”
Their reaction was ugly and it seemed pathetic on the surface, but it wasn’t just out of fear.
When anyone was defenselessly exposed to God’s malice, they would helplessly show such a reaction. Especially if they are powerless.
‘But it’s different from before…….’
Aria could sense a change due to her sensitiveness. Because she had seen Valentine’s ‘God’s malice’ with her own eyes, even more she had touched it.
‘It was an endlessly deep, dark and gloomy chaos that was close to an abyss.’
So much so that she didn’t doubt it when she heard that it was of the devil’s. However, now, a faint light of hope was shining and constantly purifying the malice.
‘More than just fear, it makes you feel awe……Feeling a little closer to God.’
The nobles themselves did not seem to be aware of it, though. It’s probably not enough for them to repent of their mistakes, and that’s probably why they were begging for forgiveness.
It was all thanks to God’s hope.
Thanks to this, the overall mood of the power Lloyd harbored was also completely different.
“Did Sister-in-law feel like that?”
Vincent also tilted his head next to Aria and asked about his uncomfortable feeling.
After they came out of the cave, he had heard about the situation, but he gave this reaction because he did not know that it had changed so much.
“I’ve seen a philosophical book that says that conscience harmonizes two selves that collide with each other. When Sister-in-law wasn’t there, he didn’t have a conscience, so even divine power could not completely purify malice.”
To purify the divine power, they had to use nothing else but divine power. And in the process, the only person who could be a link was Aria.
In the end, she was the only key to purify God’s malice, which has been passed down through the generations of the Valentine family.
“……I’m glad.”
Aria sighed in relief. The most reassuring thing is that his reason was still clear and his eyes were shining brightly.
In a black light.
‘Now Lloyd is not engulfed by malice.’
Aria, who was relieved thanks to that, bit her lip. Somehow she felt like crying.
‘Now that there is God’s hope, the Valentine’s Incident itself may not happen.’
Aria really hoped so.
‘Because I am now the only Siren in this world…….’
Now that she can’t prolong her life through the Siren’s ‘Song of Healing’, she may have to think about what happens after she dies.
But she might see another hope if they regained God’s other feelings.
The only assassin that Lloyd had captured had ingested the poison hidden in his arms and killed himself.
Unfortunately, they could not ascertain his background. But at least they knew who the assassin was spying at.
“… it was an assassin who was targeting me.”
