A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world

"This... is this me?"

After watching the video of her past life, Beatrice felt a great shock in her heart.

In her self-perception, Beatrice is not the type who is willing to sacrifice herself for other irrelevant people.

"Yes and no..."

The goddess explained meaningfully.

"So, goddess... can people really be reincarnated after death?"

A moment of silence represented the goddess's consent.

"That's it..."

"So, goddess, accepting this blessing...is there any price to pay?"

"Why do you have such an idea?"

"My parents taught me since I was young not to accept gifts from others casually, because it often means that I have to pay an equal price behind it."

"You are cautious... and relax. This is a gift from God. There is no need to pay a price."

After saying that, the goddess stretched out her hand and touched Beatrice through the air.

The power of holy light was injected into her body bit by bit, and the mark on her right hand began to rapidly transform, from an ordinary "priest" to a "servant of God" that was unique in the world.

"Go, child, use your short life to heal and sew up the scars of this world. Make good use of this [miracle] and don't forget your original intention..."

Before Beatrice could raise any questions, her consciousness was sent out of the pure white space and back to reality.

......

"hiss......"

"You are awake, Saint Lady."

Isabella stood beside the bed and said calmly.

"How long have I been unconscious?"

Beatrice rubbed her dizzy head and asked Isabella.

"soon."

What was that dream I just had?

It was not until she raised her hand and saw the alienated, yet unfading occupation mark that Beatrice believed that everything that had just happened was real...

Beatrice wanted to ask Isabella, the Saint-level strongman in front of her, something or two, but she didn't expect Isabella to half-kneel on the ground and bow to her.

"Lord Menethil, what are you doing? Get up quickly, I can't stand it."

Beatrice's first reaction was to help Isabella up, but she found that she was completely unable to do so.

"Goddess is on top."

Isabella just raised her head solemnly and said this.

Although Beatrice was unconscious and didn’t see it at the time, Isabella saw with her own eyes the pure power of holy light surging around her body after she fell asleep.

It almost lit up the entire room.

As we all know, the method of mastering the power of Holy Light is firmly in the hands of the Church. To be more precise, it is in the hands of every Pope, who personally teaches it to his subordinates.

Including Isabella, she was also personally appointed by the Pope when she was young.

The saint... in Isabella's view, is just one of the facades of the church to preach its doctrines... her status is far below that of His Holiness the Pope.

In fact, among the saints she had witnessed in the past, most of them were just useless...vases...

I thought the child named Beatrice was just one of them...

I never expected that at the moment of awakening, I would master such pure holy light power at the same time...

As a supporter and user of Holy Light, Isabella is more sensitive to this power than anyone else.

That is definitely equivalent to the presence of the Goddess of Light herself.

"Lord Menethil?"

Beatrice couldn't help asking when she saw Isabella looking up and thinking for a long time.

"Lady Saint, from now on, just call me Isabella... I swear in the name of the Paladin that I will protect everything you have with this sword until my death."

"Um... Lady Isabella... You are too polite... Don't call me Saint Beatrice anymore, it sounds weird... Just call me by my name... Beatrice."

Beatrice didn't know the weight of Isabella's oath.

Even the Pope who first granted Isabella the power of Holy Light and the title of Paladin had never accepted an oath of this magnitude.

Outsiders all thought that Isabella swore allegiance to the Pope, but in fact, what Isabella was loyal to was the church itself, or more precisely, to the Holy Light and the Goddess of Light.

So the Pope can use his status to ask her to do things, but he cannot tell her what to do.

Therefore, the status of the cardinals of the church will never be as high as that of her, the chief paladin.

......

From that day on, Isabella was still the meticulous and conservative paladin of the church on the surface, but it was noticeable that she became gradually harsher in her treatment of Saint Beatrice.

He often personally guides the saint in various aspects of cultivation.

Currently, only two people in the church know the real reason why the saint awakened her special power.

To others, Beatrice was just a gifted healer, nothing more.

......

In the temporary embassy of the church, the door of Isabella's room was pushed open.

"Isabella! Um... sorry, you were meditating..."

"That's too rash, Beatrice."

"You are wrong... By the way, there is something I want to discuss with you..."

"What's the matter?"

"I...I want to be an adventurer..."

Beatrice asked cautiously.

"reason?"

"...These days, I keep seeing injured adventurers coming and going...I want to help...I have nothing to do here anyway..."

"......Can."

"Wow! You agreed! Then I'll go now..."

"But I will follow."

"Ah? But you are still busy..."

"I am here to escort you. Other matters have nothing to do with me. Someone else will do them."

"Ugh......"

I thought I could go out alone...

......

"Lord Menethil and Lady Saint? Are you two going there?"

Albert asked the two people who were about to go out.

"Ah, Master Medici, we have some personal matters to attend to... I'll leave the affairs of the embassy to you."

Beatrice said.

And Isabella said nothing, as if the matter had nothing to do with her.

"...Okay, okay, have fun, Saint Lady, and be safe!"

Albert was a very smart man and had thought of countless possibilities in his mind, but he just couldn't guess what the two were going to do when they went out at this time, so he could only laugh it off.

As he watched the two of them walk away, the expression on Albert's face immediately changed.

Humph... well, now that they're gone, I can do something about it...

......

Isabella was actually very aware of Albert's little actions.

By covering their eyes, they can actually see much more than they imagined.

Albert always talked to someone near the embassy these two days.

Judging from the smell, they are probably from the church.

The two conspired to make some big noise in the city, and they wanted to do it in the name of "Shadow Heir".

"Shadow Heir"...

Haven't heard this name for a long time.

The last time I heard news about the Shadow Cult was over a hundred years ago.

It was just that Isabella was busy with other official duties at that time and was participating in a local war in the Holy Deer Valley. Otherwise, she would have been sent by the church to participate in the encirclement and suppression of the Shadow Cult.

I heard that Yingji himself is a person made purely of shadows?

In Isabella's view, just as holy light is the superior of light element, dark element as the other extreme must also have a superior.

This shadow heir may have really received the blessing of the alien god as rumored. After all, she had really witnessed a scene of god's blessing. Beatrice's experience proved that the gods were really watching the world, and it strengthened her belief in the holy light.

Unfortunately, the Shadow Cult had long since been destroyed, and this Shadow Cult had become a stranger that they had never met before.

Otherwise, Isabella really wanted to fight him...

This proves who has a more devout belief in their respective gods...
