♛: ‘I have decided to form an alliance with the Hero.’
When the petite girl at the head announced her decision in a steady voice, the priests at the long table began an enthusiastic discussion.
“An alliance… is indeed a decision filled with wisdom.”
“That’s right, we don’t need to conflict with the Hero. Anyone aspiring to beco the Saintess would choose to win her over.”
“Moreover, I’ve investigated, and she hasn’t joined any sect yet. Trying to assimilate her into our sect could be a brilliant move.”
“She, as a Magician, seems to possess the ability to transform into a snake—”
“Isn’t this the very proof of divine selection!”
“Another once-in-a-lifeti opportunity! She could even beco our second Shamaness!”
A priest exclaid excitedly but was imdiately t with warning and reproachful looks from the others.
Realizing a slip of the tongue had occurred during the discussion, the room suddenly fell silent.
The priest quickly understood, his face turning pale, cold sweat dripping like rain, and he bowed his head in trepidation towards the petite girl at the head.
As the representative of the God, the will of the Shamaness transcends humankind.
By speaking beyond his mandate before the Holy Snake issued an oracle, his words were considered disrespectful.
After all, only the God can select a Shamaness.

“No matter, since I am the one who decided to extend the invitation to her.”
Silence persisted for a long ti until, almost as if the priest would faint on the spot, the girl finally spoke calmly, her tone devoid of anger.
“Besides, the other party may not necessarily agree to our invitation. But since the discussion has concluded, let’s end this eting here.”
Seeing the Noble Lady give instructions, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief, especially the priest who had misspoken, feeling as if he had received a great pardon.
Then, one by one, the priests took their leave, and soon only the Noble Lady and the Sergeant remained in the inner hall of the church.
“The Saintess selection, is it about to start…”
The Noble Lady looked at the scene before her calmly, then relaxed her body, curling up her feet and hugging her knees on the chair.
“Your handling has beco more proficient, I can see the shadow of Lord Count in you.”
The Sergeant, standing like a knight’s statue behind her, finally spoke, his voice carrying a hint of amusent.
“Uncle, stop teasing .” In front of the Sergeant who had watched her grow up, the Noble Lady no longer maintained her poise, playfully protesting.
“I just followed my father’s crash course on etiquette, mimicking him.”
“Even so, it’s quite impressive.” The Sergeant shook his head.
Though the Holy Snake Sect has expanded too rapidly and isn’t structurally stable, it’s by no ans weak. Among the high-ranking mbers who had gathered just now, there are no lack of legends, but they all show great respect to a girl not even a fraction of their age.
Even if she has the Blessing of the Holy Snake and the identity of the Border Count’s daughter, if she didn’t possess the charisma of a high-ranking individual, it wouldn’t be enough to make them all set aside their stature.
As the ruler of the Border, a power not inferior to a Grand Duke, just having a noble title and knowledge of Magic Engineering is far from sufficient.
Although he hasn’t overly exhibited this side in front of the Hero, during the purge of Black Gate informants within the Quieting City, the Border Count rely needed a faint glance to make many noble families tremble with fear.
And despite her young age, the Noble Lady has already shown signs of greatness, having learned so of her father’s deanor, displaying a grandeur that far exceeds that of ordinary people.
It is undeniable that the Noble Lady is born into nobility and has gained much opportunity, thus possessing her current strength, but from the Border to the Holy City, the girl’s efforts have not gone unnoticed by him.
The Border City will certainly welco an excellent Countess in the future.

In addition to her noble bloodline, if the Noble Lady were not so young, stepping into the Legendary realm would not be impossible.
“…But this is still far from enough.” The Noble Lady sighed, her eyes revealing an uncontainable lancholy.
“In just a few dozen days, Hero Sister has already advanced to a place far beyond my reach.”
The Sergeant also fell silent montarily.
