Chapter 521: The Past is insignificant



She abruptly opened her eyes, feeling her life force being at the bare minimum. She had thought that the goddess was going to help her after she was done. She never expected it to wake up in such a bad condition.

She was about to ask the goddess why she hadn\'t helped her with improvement in her life span. However, as soon as her eyes regained their focus, she saw a face that she never wanted to see.

Eren was sitting in front of her, without even the slightest wound on his body. He looked even better than her. Even the surroundings looked different.

It wasn\'t her sanctum. Instead, she appeared to be in some room. The view through the window made her realize that it was somewhere in the Emperor\'s Palace.

The Holy Priestess wondered if she was dreaming. She pinched her cheeks with trembling hands.

Her pupils trembled and her heart skipped a few beats when she felt the sharp pain that was only increasing.

"It is not a dream. However, you can still call it a nightmare," Eren said, his eyes looking at the Priestess who had lost everything in an instant.

Even he hadn\'t expected to be able to take care of the Priestess in such a short time. Although it was out of his expectations, he knew that he had to make the best of the cards he was dealt by his future self.

"How are you still..." The Holy Priestess tried speaking, her speech pattern being unstable as uttering every word was a struggle.

"Alive?" Eren completed her sentence, freeing her from the misery of completing her sentence.

At first, he had thought that the Holy Priestess was going to know what happened to him after he used Echo of Eternity. Unfortunately, from her reaction, it became clear that it wasn\'t the case.

She had been possessed before he used Echo of Eternity. She woke up after he had returned. She was even more confused than him.

The Holy Priestess didn\'t know what had caused such a drastic change in the situation, but she didn\'t feel safe with Eren.

She knew that she had to return to the sanctum. She tried to use her holiness to push back Eren and return.

"Huh?" She stared at her trembling hands in disbelief, feeling unable to conjure even the slightest trace of her holy essence.

She couldn\'t feel it! She couldn\'t feel the blessing of the goddess! Not only had she lost her life span, but she had also lost her strength.

As the unbelievable reality started setting in, she felt as if she had simply lost her soul.

Was she abandoned by the goddess after she received what she wanted from Eren? She wondered.

Even in her wildest dreams, she never could have expected Eren to have killed the Goddess by capturing her soul.

"Ha... Hahahaha... so this is what it\'s like to be abandoned." She weakly laughed, realizing that she had been abandoned.

The connection with the goddess was completely cut off. There was no other possibility. She had been abandoned by the goddess who treated her like a pawn.

Eren also understood what she was thinking. He didn\'t correct her thoughts. As long as there was a misunderstanding, it was better for him.

"Funny, isn\'t it?" Eren asked the Holy Priestess, as he stood up.

He walked closer to the window and looked outside, soaking in the view of the city that had no idea about the kind of trouble that was knocking on their door.

"You were the true Overlord of this continent. Even the Emperor of the Continent was nothing but a pawn to you, that could be abandoned at your single whim. In the end, you became the same pawn for someone else."

Eren\'s words were like sharp daggers that stabbed through the already dying Holy Priestess.

The Holy Priestess couldn\'t even argue back. She could feel that she might die soon. Every second, her pitiful life force was growing weaker.

"Did you keep me alive to rub salt on my wound?" The Holy Priestess asked, lying back on the bed. She couldn\'t even stand properly. If she was going to die anyway, was there even a point to resist? Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

She had lost everything. Even an ordinary guard of the Royal Palace could kill her in her current state, let alone the person who had caught the interest of the goddess who abandoned him.

"Your words are so cruel. Why would a kind person like me want to run salt on someone\'s wounds?" Eren innocently answered, as if he had been wronged.

"Kind person? Hah, I would have believed you if I didn\'t know about the destruction you had caused in this world before being sealed. Now that you are back, the world is truly going to suffer again..."

The Holy Priestess had thought that she would be the winner in this war with the Northern Continent. She never expected Ren Necroline\'s return to cause such a drastic change in her fate.

It was as if the four Overlords didn\'t matter at all. They only acted as the caretaker of this world in Eren\'s absence. Now that he had returned, stronger than ever, it was once again signs that blood was going to rain from the sky.

For some reason, she felt at peace. She was dying first, but it also meant that she wasn\'t going to suffer from what was to come for this world.

"The past is insignificant to the present." Eren didn\'t argue about the past, especially since it wasn\'t related to him. Whatever mess Ren Necroline had caused, had nothing to do with him.

Then again, the blood in his hand wasn\'t any less either. At that point, he couldn\'t really argue back either.

He brought out the Overlord killing dagger, and asked the Holy Priestess, "I can help you live longer, if you help me complete this."
