Chapter 68 You in the Lamp (2/2)
Ximena only told Lara to do that if that happened one day. Ximena mumbled, saying that she did not expect that Lara would use it for real.
“What good things have we told the saintess all this while.”
Eunice recalled the past one by one and frowned.
“We turned the saintess into a troublemaker…”
“Are you uncomfortable because I’m a saintess?”
When Lara asked the question, Eunice shook her head and took a deep breath.
“I am just…thinking if I should convert my religion.”
“Me too.”
Actually same here.
Lara muttered.
Lara was still not completely relieved even after the Prince was driven out far away. She was sure that he would join hands with the demon worshippers in the West.
Lara searched for God’s name as soon as she had time. She started studying theology—which she had never done in school—and went in and out of the temple to read old records. But there was no name that stood out to her. There were dozens of beings defined as Gods in the Temple of Glory and all of them used to appear only in very old legends.
Feeling frustrated, Lara even visited the temple prayer room and stopped a priest who was passing by and asked about the statue that she kissed.
“What do you mean by name? Names are only for humans. God is just God.”
The priest told her that there were no records of the forgotten God.
Later, she went into the royal library and looked for old books. She even asked Sebastian to buy forbidden books for her. But she still could not find it. She felt like she was playing a never-ending game of hide-and-seek.
“I have no idea.”
“About what?”

“…Hey, Demian.”
“Yeah?”
It was one day in the midst of autumn. Lara, who was out by the river with Demian, asked.
“What should I do to find a record of the forgotten God?”
“Is it difficult to find?”
“It is. Old relics or hidden records… Maybe I should look for something like that.”
“Items like that are all in the Empire.”
“I know. Hautean is a small country on the border, so there’s nothing to look for here. But I can’t go to the Empire right now.”
“Lara, I know the perfect guy that you can use.”
“Who?”
“Acerus.”
Lara, who was standing by the river and looking at the autumn sky, turned her head and looked at Demian.
“The Crown Prince of Tarragon?”
“Yeah.”
“How can I dare to use the Crown Prince of the Empire?”
“You have me.”
Demian was smiling like a villain.
“Usually, those who are sitting at the top would just give orders to their underlings. This means they can easily find something like that.”
She could not refuse. Because he was right.
