Chapter 500 - 32: Invitation from the Ivory Tower

Chapter 500: Chapter 32: Invitation from the Ivory Tower

Among the six people, an elderly man with gray hair, who seemed the oldest, stepped forward but was stopped by the Great Knight accompanying Julia before he could get close.

“Halt!”

The elderly man stopped in his tracks.

Julia casually waved her hand: “It’s okay, Kael.”

The elderly man then stepped forward.

He came before Julia, lifted his hood, and politely bowed to her: “Your Highness the Holy Daughter, I am Christoph, an elder of the Ivory Tower. I’m very pleased to welcome your presence here.”

Julia nodded slightly: “Nice to meet you.”

As she spoke, she unconsciously glanced at Yodel beside her. Wasn’t it said that the Witch Master of the Ivory Tower was only a Mid-level Wizard? How come even an elder here casually possesses the strength of a High-level Wizard?

However, she didn’t pay too much attention to it, after all, the Ivory Tower was here to join her, the stronger their strength, the richer what she could absorb from them.

Thinking of this, she straightforwardly said: “I heard from Yodel that your Ivory Tower intends to join us?”

Christoph nodded and continued: “Our Witch Master once visited Feiyan City, listened to your Highness’s mass, and fully understood the gospel of the Light Goddess, read the Divine Oracle.”

“After returning, our Witch Master conveyed the gospel of the Light Goddess to us, and everyone was deeply touched.”

“Under the call of the Light Goddess, we realized that the Wizard’s Road may not only be about pursuing the ethereal eternity, but following the contents of the Divine Oracle, one can ultimately reach the eternally peaceful Kingdom of Heaven, which is also a bright path forward!”

He was filled with devotion.

Seeing Christoph’s expression, Julia couldn’t help but twitch her lips.

She originally thought that this oracle might be able to fool ordinary people, but for transcendent beings who know the details, they shouldn’t believe it at all, at least, as the Holy Daughter of Light, she knew from start to finish that this was sheer nonsense.

Unexpectedly, those who pursue the truth, a truth always verified by objective evidence, would one day be deceived by such a deceiving thing?

Julia only found it amusing.

She nodded and followed Christoph’s words: “The existence of the Light Goddess is exactly for this.”

“Yes.”

Christoph nodded, continuing: “Therefore, our Witch Master, I, and all members of our Ivory Tower have decided to henceforth join the Light Church, abandon our previous errors, and become a part of the Light Church, working together for the cause of God.”

At this moment, the other members of the Ivory Tower also humbly bowed their heads to Julia: “Inspire the gospel of the Goddess!”

Julia laughed: “A very correct decision.”

Christoph continued: “Our Witch Master is already waiting for your arrival in the Tower to receive it, do you think we should go now?”

Julia was taken aback: “Now?”

She wasn’t prepared at all, and moreover, at this point, typically she would send out church believers to walk the path first before she, the Holy Daughter, made her appearance, ensuring everything was in order. Without any such preparation, what if she encountered some danger completely unprepared?

Julia couldn’t help but say: “Isn’t it too hasty?”

Pausing, she added: “We’re not in a hurry, I will stay here for a while, I can first let my people go and take a look.”

Christoph said: “Although it’s like this… but Your Highness, we all are eager to listen to your teachings, having awaited this day for a long time, and the Witch Master and others might be disappointed if you don’t go now.”

“This…”

Julia hesitated slightly.

Yodel came up to persuade: “Why not just make a visit, Your Highness, I’ve dealt with them many times before, there’s no issue, if we send an envoy back and forth, following formalities, who knows how much time would be delayed.”

“And moreover…”

After pausing, he said meaningfully: “Wouldn’t it be unwise for the envoy to uncover all the details, isn’t that so?”

Every wizard organization holds immense wealth, and if taken according to procedures, it certainly would have to be incorporated into the Light Church’s treasure house as public property.

But if received before the personnel accounting for the finances go, then how much is received isn’t it completely up to Julia?

Hearing this, Julia was clearly tempted.

As the number one figure in the Light Church, naturally, it’s up to her to allocate the vast resources of the church, but such allocation isn’t haphazardly used, it requires reasonable purposes as it still pertains to the church’s public finances.

But if it’s private finances, that’s different, that would be entirely hers, how to spend and how to use, isn’t it completely up to her to decide.

Though her life now seems to have everything she wants at her command, that isn’t brought about by her personal strength, but purely by her position and her identity as the Holy Daughter of Light, without this identity, she would be nothing.

Wasn’t the previous Holy Daughter a prime example?

In a high position, she too could get what she wanted at will, but once she left the Light Church, she couldn’t even take a single magic stone, and now probably she is still struggling for meager cultivation resources.

Given that the first Holy Daughter had her time to step down, Julia doesn’t believe she, as the second Holy Daughter, will forever sit in this position, ultimately the Light Church is not her personal property, whoever can sit on the Holy Daughter’s seat, doesn’t it all depend on Lynch’s decision?

If power isn’t used, it expires, so better take advantage of the position to gather the benefits while she can.

Thinking of this, Julia nodded: “Since that’s the case, alright, I’ll go with you then.”

After a pause, she said to Kael beside her: “Kael, go and prepare…”

Christoph quickly responded with a cheerful smile: “No need to prepare anything, Your Highness, we have already fully prepared, the carriage is waiting downstairs, please come with me.”

Julia asked dubiously: “All prepared?”

Yodel added: “Yes, Your Highness, it was I who had them arrange everything in advance, hope you don’t mind…”

“Oh, I see…”

Julia nodded: “Alright then, let’s go.”
