Chapter 25 - Chapter 25 The birth of the Saint and Confrontation.

Priscilla and Carlos Bartfort stood side by side receiving the blessings of the high priest In front of everyone attending.

The priests and nuns attending supported the high priest and started singing prayers manifestong the divine powers of Solaria goddess of light.

The sight was magestic until their powers and connection to the goddess was abruptly cut off.

In the confusion, the once starry night sky was lit by rays of sunlight so bright they shone down through the roof. A gentle warmth engulfed.

A voice all creatures in world could hear spoke in a clear loud voice.

"Lady of Light and Lady of Night. One draws from the eternal sun. The other draws from the endless abyss. Hand in hand. Will end a tragedy of ancient origin. Together shall triumph. Seperate shall expire."

At that exact moment I felt a surge of power like nothing before, breaking the glamour spells and revealing my real appearence. The excess energy painted the snow blue dress I am wearing to shades of dark purple and black. All ornaments fell off and long strands of black wavy hair fell on my shoulder and back.

On the other side, Canditia's brown hair changed from brown to golden blonde and her eyes into a shiny sky blue.

Both our energies collided and harmonized until the prophecy came to an end.

The light that appeared before had completely vanished and all that was left were the awestruck faces of the people in the hall.

I stepped forward, walking in steady steps towards Canditia whom was so shocked by her transformation and took her hands in mine

She responded with a shocked face and an

I was confined in the palace after that.

Confined is a strong word but despite this room being cozy and fancy, it doesn't have any windows.

Moreover, the door is guarded by knights and maids are staying inside the room as of to watch my every move.

I expected this to happen. Seems like the depiction of a heretic sorceress as their savior is quite a viscous blow to the temple and the palace. But oh well, what can they do.

The room has been blessed to stop any power channeling from within...interesting.

I addressed a maid

The maids ignored my request and remained standing in their position by the wall.

I could easily suppress them into obedience but this is a critical time and I need to make a good impression on the royals.

I'll remember their faces for a late revenge.

The door swing open and Lukretus accompanied by Canditia and royal guards entered the room.

Earlier in the party hall, the high priest was shouting "Glory to the saint of Solaria" like some cult member. They immediately started sucking up to the ex-brunette now blonde Canditia. Whatever happened to their dignity? Oh right, they did come to a party with no shoes.

I spoke in a dry tone.

he said and then Canditia walked forward and used her divine power on me.

Her golden energy got instantly repelled by dark pink electric like sparks of energy.

I stood up I clicked fingers and the maids and knights all collapsed on the floor asleep.

With a wave of my hand the door was closed the shut.

Canditia gasped, two hands at her mouth and a horrified expression dawned her face as she said

I corrected them

They went completely silent and Canditia's face was full of guilt.

His expression went dark and he started glaring at me.

It's not like I liked him or anything

He asked

I said

What I need is to break the engagement off, have the two of them get together. Get myself a tittle and some land so that I won't have to live with that crazy family or have to get married to someone until I get back to my world.

He said. Awed by my reaction

He's a prince, that doesn't make him the ideal man to me.

I brushed off my hair and looked up and down the new blonde saint aka Canditia.

She looked at me and said as if the words came into her mind just right then

I pointed before turning to the prince

I clicked fingers and in a crack of energy and flashes of dim light, I was gone from there.
