The Great Saint Saraf bestows the blessing of the goddess Ella through her transparent crystal ball.
People made many donations to the Ella goddess temple to receive that blessing.
The news that the crystal ball, through which the Great Saint had exerted power received from the goddess Ella, lost its light and shattered in front of Lorencia spread throughout the empire.
Above all, people who had believed in the Great Saint of the Ella goddess temple were confused by Lorencia’s statement.
The story of Lorencia repairing the crystal ball that had lost the blessed light of Saraf, who was believed to be the messenger of the goddess Ella, and making it her own also spread widely throughout the empire.
Afterwards, the Ella goddess temple locked its doors.
“Roa.”
“Yes.”
“The movements of the Isuter Empire after the Founding Day are unusual. They are raising taxes on imperial citizens and gathering soldiers and knights.”
“Like an empire preparing for war?”
“That’s right, Roa.”
Lorencia nodded at Teishar’s words. It was as expected.
“By the way, Lorencia.”
“Yes, Father.”
“You managed to figure out the true identity of the Great Saint Saraf. My daughter is truly remarkable. Isn’t that right, Viscount Teishar?”
“Indeed.”
Lorencia’s cheeks flushed slightly at the praise from the two. Though she heard such compliments daily, she had not easily grown accustomed to them.
When the Great Saint Saraf took out her crystal ball, Lorencia also summoned her amethyst ball. At that moment, she saw her future.
It was death. She clearly saw with her own eyes the scene of her dying.
She held no hatred towards her.
She only felt deeply sorry for her, who had ended her own life out of fear of being trapped in a room darker than death.
In the previous future as well, many people had taken their own lives because of Ruans.
Perhaps the Great Saint Saraf was also one of those victims.
The future to prevent the death of someone who ends their own life is not visible.
That’s why the future of the Great Saint Saraf appeared the same as that of someone who had committed suicide.
Nothing was visible. That’s how she realized. That the Great Saint Saraf was not the white snake.
That she was an ordinary human.
“When our eyes met, I sensed that the Great Saint Saraf was an ordinary human.”
Lorencia opened her mouth quietly.
She wanted to tell her family about her abilities, but following Teishar’s opinion that it would be better if fewer people knew about her ability to see the future, she packaged everything as abilities possessed by a child of the goddess Ella.
“We need to find the real white snake who gave her the name Saraf.”
“Lorencia.”
“Yes, Grandmother.”
“Could you explain what kind of being this white snake you speak of is?”
Abrelina asked Lorencia with a curious expression.
“It’s another goddess existing in this world, and also a sister of the goddess Ella.”
“Another goddess? This is the first I’ve heard of it.”
“The title of goddess is too generous for such a being, Lady Abrelina. The white snake is an evil existence that is targeting the life of Lorencia, the child of the goddess Ella.”
Teishar told people about the existence of Saraf. Upon learning about the existence of the white snake for the first time, Abrelina’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Then it seems our opponents to eliminate are not just Duke Daniel and Emperor Ruans.”
“The white snake Saraf has been controlling everything from behind through the Ella goddess temple for a long time, waiting only for me, the seventh child of the goddess Ella, to be born.”
The white snake Saraf is not a being that humans can deal with.
She has endured for a long time without revealing her identity in order to take the place of the goddess Ella.
Thinking about it now, if Teishar hadn’t saved her when she was starving to death 10 years in the future before regressing, she might have become food for the white snake Saraf like the other children of the goddess Ella.
It was terrifying just to think about it.
Now she knows all the truth about the white snake. So she won’t be deceived anymore. Rather, she intends to deceive and do what the white snake Saraf hates the most.
The corners of Lorencia’s mouth lifted slightly.
“The Ella goddess temple will try to brand me as a witch, just as they did to my mother.”
“But many people witnessed at the Founding Day banquet that you, Lorencia, are a child of the goddess Ella.”
“There are more people who haven’t seen me than those who have. They have built trust with the Ella goddess temple for a long time. That trust, built over a long time, will be difficult to break all at once.”
It’s difficult to break thick trust. And there’s no need to deliberately break thick trust.
“Lorencia. Do you have a plan in mind?”
“Yes. We’ll use the rumors coming out of the Ella goddess temple to our advantage.”
Rumors go around and around, adding nonexistent facts and growing in size.
The larger the rumor, the more people become curious rather than doubtful. If people come to trust the rumor added to their curiosity?
If even a single trust turns into a single doubt, the belief they held will be swept away by irreversible false rumors and spread to the sea.
Just as seawater cannot be contained, false rumors can never be contained either.
“The more the Ella goddess temple tries to brand me as a witch, the more the white snake Saraf will never be able to get what she wants.”
Forever.
“Now I’ll tell you the plan I’ve made.”
The corners of Lorencia’s mouth, which had been slightly raised, now lifted fully.
“First, we need to cut down all the minions controlled by the white snake.”
The snake hunt begins.
[This is the timeline separator]The Ella goddess temple announced that the Great Saint Saraf had been attacked by the witch Lorencia.
So the Spencer family and the Di Glosten Polroid Imperial Family also began to spread a rumor.
“Have you heard that rumor? They say the Great Saint of the Ella goddess temple was actually an evil witch called the white snake Saraf.”
“The witch white snake?”
The more false a rumor is, the faster it spreads, and people are fascinated by false rumors. And the story grows and grows, enormously expanding its size.
“Really? I heard that the Di Glosten princess was a witch. Are you saying that’s not true?”
“I heard that rumor too. But they say the Di Glosten princess isn’t a witch.”
“Then was it true that the Great Saint of the Ella goddess temple was the witch, as the rumor says?”
“Come to think of it, it was strange. I had been wondering why the Ella goddess temple hadn’t caught the witch they’d been saying was in the Polroid Empire for so long… It’s because she was really the messenger of the goddess Ella, so they couldn’t catch her.”
“So the story that she framed the innocent Lady Musila as a witch to hide that the Great Saint was a witch was true.”
“We misunderstood Lady Musila by only believing what the Ella goddess temple said.”
People became solemn. And one by one, the deeds of how Musila had helped people naturally surfaced.
Thinking about it, the miracles Musila performed were closer to true miracles than those of the Ella goddess temple, and those miracles helped people.
“Lady Musila’s disappearance was the fault of the Ella goddess temple.”
“They slandered the kind Lady Musila to hide their own evil deeds.”
“I simply cannot forgive this.”
Even people who had thick trust begin to doubt deeply once they start to suspect even once.
Can doubt that has deepened like an abyss ever be eliminated?
“But how could a witch have hidden and lived in the sacred Ella goddess temple?”
“There’s also a story that the witch killed the real Great Saint and was wearing the Great Saint’s skin inside out.”
“How horrible. The real white snake Saraf is truly a terrible witch.”
“That’s not all. Have you heard what they did at the Ella goddess temple?”
“No. What else is there?”
“They say they were making money through illegal drug distribution, human trafficking, and using donations for loan shark interest behind the scenes.”
“If it’s true, this is no ordinary matter.”
“That must be why our Queen Benedict declared war on the Ella goddess temple, right?”
“Ah, I heard that rumor too. That she declared it at the Founding Day banquet!”
As rumors are passed from mouth to mouth, they spread differently from the speaker’s intention and the truth.
It wasn’t difficult to make false rumors seem true by adding sensational rumors to them.
What would be the most sensational story for people? That the beautiful ducal lady was a witch?
No.
People will be more interested in the story that the Great Saint of the Ella goddess temple, whom they had trusted and believed in for a long time, was actually an evil witch.
Whether the Great Saint is an evil witch or not doesn’t matter.
What mattered was the sensation caused by the rumor.
The rumor spread like truth, added with the story that the Great Saint’s crystal ball was miserably shattered and lost its light.
Thus, the thick trust built over a long time turns into a great sense of betrayal in an instant.
Fanatical trust turns into fanatical betrayal and an obsession to reveal the truth.
And people will increasingly want to condemn the existence of the witch white snake Saraf who pretended to be the Great Saint.
Of course, rumors alone can’t eliminate the white snake, but at least they’ve made it impossible for things to go as the white snake wishes.
The Great Saint Saraf has become an evil witch, not the messenger of the goddess Ella. So the world that the white snake Saraf wants will never come.
Forever.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
