Chapter 1114: Statue reacting
With Saintess Irene leading the way, there was no one that dared to get in our way.
With her beauty, anyone would be able to recognize her from miles away, so there was no mistaking her as she walked through the streets of the city.
Since she was the saintess, there was no one that dared to get in her way.
But at the same time, there was a large crowd that gathered because of her.
They all stood in the streets and looked at her. There were many that also seemed like they wanted to cheer for her or even ask for her autograph, but they held themselves back in the end.
It wasn’t just the holy knights that kept them back, it was more their respect for her that kept them back.
The way that they looked at Saintess Irene was already more than enough to show how popular and influential she was.
The same could be said about the way that they looked at me.
It was clear that many of them were dissatisfied that an unknown person like me was with someone like her.
It was just that Saintess Irene completely ignored these people as she continued leading the way.
With Saintess Irene leading the way, we quickly made our way to a garden in the middle of the city. It was strange that there was a garden in a place like this, but it was quite the large garden that was here.
It wasn’t a garden that was outside of a church or an important building or anything, this was a garden that really seemed to be out of place as it was in the middle of nowhere.
However, this was the place that Saintess Irene brought us to.
Once we arrived at the garden, the holy knights didn’t even need instructions as they spread out to surround the garden. With the way that they took their places around this garden, it seemed like they were planning on keeping everyone out of the garden.
When we entered the garden, it was like entering a completely different world.
It was as if we had entered a world that no one else was in with how quiet it was in this garden. It was completely different from when we had been in the streets and surrounded by people.
It seemed like we were the only ones that were in this world with how quiet this place was. This really didn’t seem real with how fast the transition was.
I looked at Saintess Irene as if I was asking for an explanation, but it didn’t seem like she noticed as she continued acting as a tour guide.
“This garden is filled with different kinds of flowers that were imported from many different countries. It could be considered one of the most beautiful places in the entire Holy Empire.”
As she continued introducing the different parts of the garden to us, she also led the way forward into the deeper parts of the garden. With the confident way that she moved forward, it was as if she was leading us to a specific place.
It didn’t seem like she was going to hesitate for even a second with the way that she pushed forward.
Since she didn’t stop, there was nothing that we could do other than follow her.
There was one time that I had tried stopping to test her and she immediately stopped as well before turning to look at me. She looked at me in a way as if she wouldn’t move unless I moved…
It had put quite a bit of pressure on me, so I knew that it was better to go along with her than to fight her for now.
At least it didn’t seem like she meant any harm.
After walking forward for a bit, the flowers and plants that were around us seemed to fade
away a bit. It was as if there was something that was ahead of us that warranted them to move the flowers and plants away.
When we came out of the path, we found ourselves in a large square.
But that wasn’t what caught everyone’s attention.
The thing that everyone immediately noticed was the large statue that was in the center of the square.
It was a statue of a beautiful woman that stood there.
I didn’t know who this beautiful woman was, but it felt a bit familiar when I saw her.
Then I realized why it felt familiar when I saw the plaque that was at the bottom of the statue.
Solista.
This was a statue of Solista.
It was also the fact that I saw this plaque that I realized why this garden was situated in the middle of the city like this.
This place was a monument for the statue of Solista that was here.
It wasn’t strange that there would be a place like this in the Holy Empire.
Though I didn’t understand why Saintess Irene brought us here in the first place.
That was until I noticed something.
My attention had been completely on the statue of Solista that I didn’t notice it. But when I came back to my senses, I realized that my hand was glowing.
It was the Mark of God.
This Mark of God had suddenly appeared on my hand and had suddenly started to glow, almost as if it was reacting to something.
Though I had no idea what exactly it was reacting to.
That was until there was something else that suddenly started to glow as well.
It was only a faint glow at first, but it slowly became stronger until it was completely covered
in this glow.
It was the statue of Solista that suddenly started to glow, as if it was resonating with the Mark of God that was on my hand.
There was a bitter smile that appeared on my face.
That was because I could see the look that was on Saintess Irene’s face when she saw this
statue of Solista begin to glow.
