Chapter 772: Final Battle 6
The Holy Palace.
Reina was praying to the gods for the safe return of the expeditionary troops who had gone over to Crete.
“The great lord El Kassel, and Belize the mother of earth. Please let this havoc on this earth come to an end...”
Her prayers were a lot more earnest than usual.
Last night, she had a dream about Luke and Karen, and an ominous sight of confronting a terrifying-looking demon appeared.
Her dreams never ended like any simple dream, so she prayed earnestly.
‘Please come back safely! I will forgive you for everything if you come back safely!’
She wasn’t able to figure out what she would forgive, but she kept on repeating the same words in her mind.
At that time, a voice entered her ears.
“Tch tch, again you do the same thing. I told you to not overdo it, I told you that it takes a toll on your health.”
“I guess dad is someone she will never learn to trust.”
“Ah...!”
Reina jumped up at the voices she heard.
‘You heard my prayers! Thank you so much, god!’
She cried to God and turned back.
Luke and Karen, smiling brightly than ever.
Taking huge steps, Reina embraced Luke.
“Is this really... not a dream?”
“Right. Now that everything is done, there is no need to worry about anything.”
The moment he said that, the outside went nosy, the sounds of horns and drums could be heard.
Puah! Puah! Puuuuuah!
“The expedition troops are back! The troops have come back!”
“I need to inform this good news to the Pope right away!”
Hearing the sounds of horns and the cheers of the people for the troops who returned back safely were resounding.
Tears of joy loomed in Reina’s eyes.
Over the years, through so many hardships and adversities, the hopes and wishes of people had finally turned true.
Karen looked at her parents.
She, who had come back from the past which ceased to exist, by disobeying the flow of time had managed to resolve the grudge she had against the Lich King.
‘It is finally done... but the life of our family isn’t.’
The last hope of a world can be put down.
Karen would now get to decide to live as an ordinary girl.
“Honey, the thing is, there is a place I want to go now.”
Reina, who was in Luke’s arms, spoke to him after enjoying his embrace.
“Just say it. I will take you wherever you want.”
“Lamer. The place where we first met, I want to go there.”
“The place... nice! Let’s go together. Karen hasn’t been to Lamer till now.”
The moment Luke decided, Arch Duke Gregory, who was waiting outside, entered.
“Where do you think you are going?! There aren’t just one or two things which need to be done after the war...”
“I apologize, Arch Duke.”
When Reina apologized, Luke unfolded teleport magic and the three of them disappeared.
“This!”
With a frustrated look, Arch Duke Gregory picked up the crown of the Pope, which had fallen to the floor.
Right before the teleport magic got triggered, Reina dropped it.
“Please tell me that you didn’t decide to abdicate, right?”
Gregory was worried.
Reina had accepted the position of Pope, only for the cause of helping Luke.
Now that all the variables in Luke’s life had disappeared, she could quit being the Pope.
He sighed like a father who lost his only daughter.
“Look here, have you heard? Her Holiness is gone!”
“There were rumors that the Demon King had kidnapped her...”
“Where are such kinds of rumors spreading from? All fake!”
“Really?”
“Really! My cousin said in the Holy Palace, and High-priest Luther had denied any such happenings!”
“Then it is a good thing.”
The news about the disappearance of Veronica III had been going around in the city of Bless.
However, that was the last of the noisy events which were happening.
The continent didn’t suffer, and not a single man disturbed the world.
The continent began to enter an era of peace.freewebno vel.co m
