Chapter 1491 - 1045: Who Is She, Really? (2)

Are those people not coming to greet us because they’re afraid to disturb the savior from afar?

Or were they actually driven away by you?

And... how come you’re the only one here to greet us?

Aren’t we people too?

The siblings standing behind Querus stepped forward.

"Pasiphus Segelros, greetings to you."

The handsome man with a devil-may-care attitude spoke politely.

"Lilicia Segelros, greetings to you."

The lively and playful girl winked and gave Reiger a charming smile.

"Segelros?"

Reiger’s eyebrows raised slightly.

This surname, in this world, only a certain group of people can possess.

That is, the royal family of the Sagelros Empire, another imperial power alongside Careadohart among the two great human empires.

These two before me are undoubtedly members of the Sagelros Empire’s royal family.

"Lilicia? What are you doing here?"

When Melo, standing beside Reiger, saw the lively and playful girl, his brow immediately wrinkled visibly.

"If you can be here, why can’t I?"

The girl called Lilicia replied defiantly to Melo, her tone direct and impolite, making the discord between the two evident.

At this time, Naisa also recognized someone familiar among the three.

"Are you... Beluti Lawon?"

Seeing the angel-faced girl, Naisa’s expression changed.

"Long time no see, Saintess Naisa."

The angel-faced girl reluctantly shifted her gaze from Reiger to Naisa, displaying a beautiful smile.

"No, it seems you have inherited the position of Pope now?" Beluti seemed to recall something, slightly apologetic, "I was negligent, Your Eminence Naisa."

Upon hearing Beluti’s words, Naisa no longer wore the same kindly expression she had for everyone before, but instead, as if meeting a destined opponent, although not to the extent of becoming openly confrontational like Lilicia with Melo, had an expression of facing an imminent threat.

"...Why are you here too?"

Naisa spoke with extreme caution, surprising Reiger somewhat.

Conversely, Beluti looked as if she had met a close friend, continuously smiling gently.

"After learning that the Master of the Holy Sword Marfa appeared, I originally planned to go directly to Frosta. But then I received news of your trip to Nanelga."

"Coincidentally, I was recently invited by the royal family of the Northern Hermit Kingdom to attend a ball, and I received this news in the Hermit Kingdom when the Master descended."

"So, I came to Nanelga."

After speaking, Beluti again shifted her gaze, looking at Reiger as if she could never see enough, staring intently at him, making Reiger somewhat uncomfortable under her gaze.

At the same time, he marveled in his heart at this girl named Beluti Lawon.

"Such a pure girl."

Beluti’s clean aura genuinely caught Reiger’s attention.

Reiger had seen many pure, innocent, flawless, beautiful girls, but Beluti was not just beautiful; she possessed a unique aura, unlike any Reiger had seen before.

Seeing this girl, the first thought that crossed Reiger’s mind was "Unsullied by mud," as if no matter how much filth touched her, she would remain pure, clean, untainted.

In Reiger’s previous life, the term "white lotus" was no longer a compliment but a derogatory term disliked and despised by many. Yet seeing Beluti, Reiger suddenly felt that the term "white lotus" returned to its positive connotation, thinking that this is what a true white lotus, the ideal in many hearts, should be.

Due to this aura, even though Reiger had seen many women who were as perfectly beautiful as the girl across, if all these perfect ten out of ten women stood together, he would undoubtedly be first drawn to this uniquely auraed girl.

Thus, it was evident how unique her aura was.

"So... who exactly is she?"

Reiger instinctively felt curious about her.

Unfortunately, at this moment, Querus spoke.

"This isn’t the place to talk; let’s head to my place." Querus addressed everyone while respectfully saying to Reiger, "I’ve prepared a banquet, please follow me."

Querus gestured invitingly towards his residence.

"Alright." Reiger ceased his attention on Beluti, nodded, and said, "Let’s leave here first."

As soon as the words fell, the countless people around immediately bowed.

"  """""" Farewell, Your Excellency!"""""""

Reiger smiled and nodded to the surrounding people, then followed Querus, guided towards his mansion.

Behind him, Melo, Naisa, Jelina, Hilune, and even Aleye followed obediently but kept some distance from Reiger.

Jelina and Hilune, on the other hand, already had veils on their faces and tried to keep their heads down, closely following Reiger and hiding their presence under his brilliance, so they weren’t too far from him.

Aleye alternated her gaze between Beluti and Lilicia, showing signs of curiosity and longing.

Meanwhile, Melo and Naisa, who usually couldn’t wait to cling to Reiger, maintained some distance this time.

Because they had run into their long-time opponents.

"Who would have thought you frivolous siblings would also come to a place like Nanelga."

Melo was the first to speak, discreetly mocking the playful girl beside him.

"Aren’t you the frivolous one?" Lilicia still maintained her defiant attitude, "The most outstanding heir of the Careadohart royal family, the highest successor to the throne, our Grand Princess. It is unlike you to not stay in Frosta handling your siblings’ plots."

"What? Does Her Highness the Grand Princess also need to curry favor with the savior?"

"After all, since the savior has descended on your land, it wouldn’t be like you if you didn’t seize the opportunity."

These words from Lilicia carried weight.

If it were anyone else saying this, Melo might have long lost his temper.

But since it was Lilicia speaking, Melo instead seemed to think, "That’s just like you."

"Your words are as sharp as ever. No wonder except for your fun-loving brother, no one wants to hang out with you."

Melo spoke nonchalantly, while a "well" symbol appeared on Lilicia’s forehead.

Clearly, when it came to verbal sparring, Lilicia was no match for Melo.

Or rather, Lilicia was more easily angered while Melo was accustomed to her sharp tongue, adeptly handling her.

On the other side, Naisa and Beluti were a different scene.

"Stop looking, Saint Beluti."

Seeing Beluti staring at Reiger’s back, Naisa spoke with wary tone, as if confronted by a vixen trying to steal her man.

"This is the Master chosen by the Holy Sword Marfa, someone from our Holy Sword Church."

Right from the start, Naisa announced her claim.

Yet, Naisa’s declaration was met only with a smiling reply from Beluti.

"Whether chosen by the Lord Marfa or Lord Moslo, as long as they’re the Master of the Holy Sword, our savior, then they’re the one I’ve long awaited."

Beluti said this with a smile as bright as a flower.

"And after all, I’m part of the Holy Sword Church too."

Hearing this, Naisa’s hand gripping her scepter tightened involuntarily.
