Chapter 622: Getting Ready To Leave

Chapter 622: Getting Ready To Leave

It's been a week since Hinata joined us, and I was already completely recovered.

That day I was training my Martial Arts when Alice came to tell me about the arrival of many people on the island, it seems that the Priests we were waiting for finally arrived.

Sophia who I was training with stopped fighting knowing there were things to do, we were both just training our Martial Arts without using any kind of energy, getting too reliant on power and forgetting to perfect the technique can lead someone strong to their death, I won't make such a big mistake.

According to Alice, until the Temple of Life, whose initial construction had already been completed, I found more than 100 people of different races and genders, all of them wore robes with the symbol of the Goddess of Life, the same symbol I've seen on the Goddess of Life statue before.

It looked like all these people were gathered together receiving a lecture from High Priestess Yara, there was a Dwarf male beside her as she spoke.

I was distant, but I could hear as clearly as if I were right next to her thanks to my high-level senses.

"All of you have a lot to do, as you can see the main construction was finished by friends, we were also presented with drawings about the future constructions that we can adapt as we want, all of you will be responsible for finishing our temple and the abode of the clergy." (Yara)

"The one beside me is the new High Priest Tharos, he will be in charge of this place, you must heed his orders and you must be diligent in your respective duties." (Yara)

"I won't be there for the next few months, so everyone will have a lot of work to do until this place becomes a learning center where we will spread the word to everyone who wants to hear the importance of life..." (Yara)

I stopped listening when I saw a chain tying a Skeleton a little further behind High Priestess Yara, this chain stretches close to High Priestess Yara's feet.

I look at the Skeleton and notice the Runes on his bones, I also notice his clothes and his Aura, that was High Priest Henry of the Church of Death.

"(What's going on here?)" (I)

"Something wrong, master?" (Alice)

"No." (I)

"Should we do something?" (Sophia)

"He doesn't seem to be scared or angry, which in itself is pretty weird, so I won't get involved." (I)

"Are they talking about High Priest Henry tied up in chains?" (Alice)

"Yea." (I)

"Earlier I was on the island next door delivering Mr Leonardo's latest drawings for the buildings he thought would be suitable there." (Alice)

"The Priests of the Church of Death also arrived and I could see High Priest Henry giving a lecture there until the moment High Priestess Yara arrived." (Alice)

"They were arguing for a few minutes while I was looking for someone who could get the building drawings so I could come back." (Alice)

"But soon I could see High Priestess Yara wearing chains as she smiled to arrest High Priest Henry before dragging him here." (Alice)

"If there were other Priests there, then why didn't anyone try to stop it?" (Sophia)

"Everyone just waved goodbye as their High Priest was taken away." (Alice)

"..." (I/Sophia)

"Didn't you find that strange?" (I)

"At first yes, but then I thought it was okay, that kind of thing happens." (Alice)

"Where can this sort of thing be considered normal?" (I)

"In the Dungeon, it happens dozens or even hundreds of times a day, Nolan is taken at least once a day, there must one day a fight happened between two women trying to kidnap him." (Alice)

"He calmed them both down before taking them on a date together." (Alice)

"This guy really has a lot of lust, I wonder where he gets so much energy when he's so weak." (I)

"Actually that day he came back sad, it seems the two girls liked each other's company better, so he was sent away." (Alice)

Pfft

"(Calm down Zenos, don't laugh at Nolan's situation, that kind of thing happens... hahahahahaha...)" (I)

cough cough

"Forget Nolan, his love life is more active than a Succubus." (Sophia)

"We should be enjoying this island paradise more as this is our last day here." (Sophia)

"Don't worry, tonight I'll help you with your Familiar summon." (I)

Everyone is already finishing the preparations to leave tomorrow morning, I've also finished my preparations, I can use this extra time to help Sophia with her Summon to get a Familiar.

"I'll help you if you need it, we didn't have much time to talk with so many things to do since I was the only one of my religion on this island." (Yara)

"It would be nice to interact more from now on so we can all be less formal, right?" (Yara)

"..." (I)

As I was distracted by laughing so far at Nolan's situation, I ended up not noticing High Priestess Yara approaching.

I see a chain in her hand, then I look behind her and see High Priest Henry still tied up being carried away like luggage with a chain slung over her shoulder.

"What do you mean by that?" (I)

"(By your look and smile I know your words have another hidden meaning.)" (I)

"As we agreed, two Priests would be assigned to stay in your Dungeon and be part of the Temple being created where our two Religions were allowed to enter." (Yara)

"You mean..." (I)

"I will be that representative, I hope to have a good time with you, Zenos." (Yara)

"Henrique was stubborn, but he'll be coming too if it's not a bother." (Yara)

"I think it's been a nuisance to him." (I)

Sigh

"Even after centuries he still clings to safe and calm places, he has to learn to come out of his cocoon and venture a little into the unknown." (Yara)

"Believe me when I say that staying close to the master will be the closest to the unknown that will come, you will be lucky if you ever have peace." (Alice)

"Come on, you're exaggerating..." (I)

"Stop telling everyone these things, you'll drive people away if you tell everyone the truth Alice." (Sophia)

"You'd better see for yourself when the time comes." (Sophia)

"(Why does everyone treat me like a disaster charm...)" (I)

While lost in thought hands once, I am knocked by something from the side and thrown into a nearby tree which breaks into pieces.

"(I think I broke a rib or maybe my spine, I can't feel my legs.)" (I)
