43 Episode 41: Journey Continues 2 (1/2)

******* Goddess' POV *******

'Goddess, this is my first and maybe my last prayer. Even though I don't really believe you existed but if you did, I just hope you give pity to my wife. Destiny has already lead the sure destruction of the Kingdom of Xaerin but my wife has done nothing wrong. I'll do whatever you asked of me. Just tell death to give her mercy.'

I can finally hear the voice of the descendant of Xaerin.

This is what I have been waiting for.

The ender dragon might have trapped me in my heaven the way she is trapped in her end island but it doesn't mean I can't answer to the prayers of my creations.

All of the three ancient kingdom's descendants and the original one have finally reached out to me.

It is time to get rid of their curse.

It is time to let them know I didn't abandon them.

It is time to give them a fighting chance.

I held my hands in front of me and it glows until everything around me is now bathed in light.

******* Prince Raimer's POV *******

The moment I reached the desecrated church in my castle in the eastern border, I quickly kneel on the ground in front of the broken altar.

This place was once beautiful. The priest preached to hundreds of people gathered in here but now there are only dust and mold. The king forbade religion since he believes it only hinders his world conquest.

I am all alone here while staring at the ground.

I don't know what to do.

I tried to convince my father to stop the nonsense war but he won't listen to me. He just said that it is his destiny to rule this world. He even tried to kill me for ”treachery” but only managed to take my right eye.

My wife is also plagued with an incurable disease. I don't know where she gets it from but I called every potion master and healer in the kingdom and they didn't manage to find a solution for her sickness. I even tried to call the ender dragon's believers the illagers like the witches and warlocks but they also failed.

I am losing hope.

I am finally doing the thing that I didn't think that I will do in my life and that is praying.

I don't really believe the existence of the Goddess but what else could I possibly do right now.

I didn't put my hand together like what the people who worship here do and just closed my eyes.

I began praying.

After a moment, I was answered with nothing but silence.

Of course. What did I expect?

I stand on my feet and began walking out of the church.

I was about to step outside and reached my horse when suddenly I can hear a whisper in my ear.

'Don't lose hope. Save this world.'

I quickly turned around to see who said that and armed my giant iron hammer in my hand.

I didn't see anyone.

I quickly noticed that my body suddenly shines and I closed my remaining left eye because of how bright it is.

After a moment, I opened my eye and checked my body for any changes.

Nothing. I can see nothing wrong in my body.

I opened my status to see if there are any changes.

What? What is this?

I am shocked to what I am seeing but the only thing that I'm so focused right now is the name Goddess in my status.

The Goddess really do exist and she even answered my prayer.

I kneeled on the ground holding my weapon in front of me.

I didn't put any sincerity to my first prayer but this time I put all my feelings into it.

'I won't fail you, Goddess.'

******* Sisilla's POV *******

I hope Carolus and Rose are safe from their travel.

They are probably fine since Carolus is around and he can handle anything.

It is morning right now which means it is time to stay indoors once again. This is my most hated time in the day even though it is once my favorite.

I am rocking my chair while brushing my cat.

I stare in the surroundings and remembered that they are two humans that lived here for a night.

I'm glad I met a human before I am gone fully insane from living for so long and decided to take my life away.

'Goddess, I pray for Carolus victory against the ender dragon.' I prayed.

I was about to close my eyes to pretend to sleep when suddenly I can feel my body changing.
