Chapter 61 Mark Of God (3)
Solista turned around to look at this figure of blue light and gave a nod before saying, “You just missed them.”
Then before anything else happened, the figure of blue light raised their hand to grab Solista’s face.
Solista shouted out in pain, “Ah, ah, what are you doing?”
The figure of blue light said, “You know exactly what you did wrong and you’re trying to get out of it now? Do you really think that you would get away with this?”
There was a bitter tone that appeared in Solista’s voice as they said, “Can’t you just let it go this once? You know that I wouldn’t do this if I didn’t have another choice.”
After Solista said this, the hand gripping their head increased the grip that they had on it, causing Solista even more pain.
Solista quickly said, “Ow, ow, ow, I get it, I get it! I was wrong, I was wrong!”
The hand gripping Solista’s head didn’t release, but it at least relaxed a bit so it wasn’t causing them that much pain anymore.
The figure of blue light then said, “Did you give him that thing?”
Solista gave a nod before saying, “It was something that our creator prepared for him, so I had no choice but to give it to him.”
The figure of blue light fell silent, but in the end, they let go of Solista’s head.
Solista fell to the ground and started massaging their skull, but they never looked away from this figure of blue light. After a long period of silence, Solista said, “If you keep acting this way, you might drive him away.”
The figure of blue light gave a cold snort when they heard this and kicked Solista in the side of the head before saying, “You can say what you want, but you’ll still be punished in the end. She already knows what you’ve done and she’s preparing your punishment right now.”
As soon as Solista heard this, they couldn’t help trembling.
Then they grabbed the figure of blue light’s feet as they said, “You have to help me! I can’t survive what she calls punishment!”
The figure of blue light looked down at Solista and after a long period of silence, they said, “If you help me contact him, then I can consider it.”
Solista hesitated a bit when they heard this since they had already told him that the gods wouldn’t bother him for no reason…and if they helped this figure of blue light do just that, it would be going against what they had said.
But in the face of being punished, they really couldn’t do anything.
It seemed like the gods were still going to mess around in his life…
…
When the light cleared in front of me, I found that I was back in the priest’s office in the church.
I couldn’t help stumbling where I had been standing and that caught everyone’s attention.
Baroness Rose quickly came forward to support me as she asked, “Are you alright? Did something happen?”
Cecilia didn’t come forward like Baroness Rose, but it was clear by the way that she was looking at me that she was also worried about me.
I didn’t say anything at first and looked at the cross on the wall. Seeing that I wasn’t able to see anything from it, I turned back and said, “No, nothing’s wrong at all.”
Both Baroness Rose and Cecilia still looked at me with worried looks after hearing me say this.
In the end, Cecilia came forward and took me from Baroness Rose. Then in one smooth move, she lifted me up in her arms and held me in a princess carry.
I couldn’t help revealing a bitter smile when this happened.
She saw this and said, “It’s quicker this way.”
I wanted to say something, but in the end, she was right. It was indeed faster for her to carry me like this, though it would certainly be a blow to my ego as a man.
It was just a good thing that we had dismissed everyone when we came here since we didn’t know what would happen. So at the very least, no one would see me being carried by Cecilia like this.
As we were about to leave, the priest suddenly came forward to say, “Wait, can you let me check something first?”
We were caught off guard by the sudden words from the priest, but by the time that we reacted, the priest was already coming closer to us.
He completely ignored Baroness Rose and Cecilia, putting his full attention on me.
The way that he looked at me felt very strange, almost as if he was trying to undress me with his eyes…I couldn’t help feeling uncomfortable as he stared at me like this, almost wanting to move out of the way.
But once again, before I could even react, his hand suddenly grabbed my hand.
He lifted my hand up so that he could see the back of my hand and he looked carefully at it.
I was surprised at first, but then I realized something.
The hand that he was currently looking at was the hand that Solista had put the mark on.
When I looked down, I found that there was indeed a mark that was currently on the back of my hand. This was also what the priest was currently looking at.
The expression on the priest’s face quickly changed as he looked at the mark on my hand. It went from confusion to surprise, to shock, and finally to worship.
The way that he looked at the mark on my hand in the end, it was almost as if he wanted to rub his face against it…
I couldn’t help feeling scared again as this look appeared on his face.
After a long time of muttering to himself, the priest finally said, “This is…this is…this is as the scriptures have described them…This is the Mark of God!”𝐍𝑜𝓋𝔢𝑳𝞰𝑒xt.𝕔𝑶𝐌
