Ovior ntioned, "The sa temple where all of your Saints stayed for generations too!"
Catherine furrowed her eyebrows. She asked,?"How do you know that information?"
Her voice was a bit alard. She had a reason for it.
Mostly, information regarding Saints and Holy Temple would be considered sacred.
Even the public didn't know much about the inside news of the Holy Temple let alone the Saint's whereabouts.
That's why it was impossible for any foreigner to know where the Saints lived for generations.
Years ago, the King of Utahill made the most extraordinary castle for the Saint whom he was in love with.
However, the Saint couldn't get married.
The reason was simple.
Goddess Juvena was known as a virgin who loved every living being. She had no romantic feelings for humans. That helped her to be selfless and just.
It was the very point why the Saints couldn't be in any romantic relationships.
And, generations after generations, they were doing their best to help the people in need and kept the harmony and balance between hunger for power and peace.
Many Saints were known to live in the castle that was made for their predecessor.
Because of that, people had speculated that the Saint who was in the highest position in Utahill would live in the Royal Castle.
What they didn't know, even though so Saints lived in the castle to show off, they spent most of their ti in the first temple of Goddess Juvena since they couldn't indulge themselves in luxury and beco greedy.
People hardly rembered the first temple after the Great War.
Catherine was alert because Ovior seed so sure that the Saints lived in the first temple.
Ovior only then realized that he made a mistake.
'I have to co up with an excuse.' He pondered really really hard before coming up with an idea.
He blurted out, "rlin used to study in Utahill about religion before he ca to Tybu to beco a wizard. That's why he knew that the Saints would live in the first temple."
'rlin, please forgive for selling you out,' he apologized in his heart.
Catherine let her guard down. Those who did higher studies in religion knew a little bit of the first temple.
She was relieved. "Oh so, that's how it is. I was wondering how you knew that piece of information. When we were children, we were taught about the first temple.
She tried to recall, "If I rember correctly, Ver asked the Senior Brother about the location of the first temple. She often dropped her work and went out. She wanted to see the first temple with her own eyes.
"The Senior Brother then told her that the temple had disappeared from the humans' eyes a long ti ago. No one could see it except for the Saint. I guess people need Saint's power to locate it."
She paused and then offered an apology, "I'm sorry that I couldn't help you with this."
Ovior shook his head. "No, no, it's completely fine. At least we know that only the Saint knows where the temple is situated."
Catherine inquired, "So, what was it about? You made curious."
She pretended to be calm but she was dying to find out for what reason he needed the location of the first temple, the holiest place in the world.
"If you had enough fun, co back imdiately. Only then you will be briefed about it," Ovior's reply was quick and blunt.
Afterward, he quickly turned off the device to avoid any more interrogation.
Looking at the dim device, Catherine sighed.
'I wanted to spend more ti with Vincent but I'm so curious. Is sothing going to happen to the temple? Ver must be involved in this. Since she is with Arthur, I can leave her here.'
Upon deciding what she wanted to do, Catherine wrote a letter to Veronica. After that, she sealed it properly.
She packed her bag and was ready to head out.
Just then, soone knocked on the door.
She opened the door and found Vincent standing there with a tray of food.
He gave her a brilliant smile and then greeted her warmly, "Good morning, Catherine. Did you sleep well? I hope I didn't disturb your resting ti."
"Not at all. Please co in." Catherine moved away to let him enter the room.
"Thank you." Vincent entered the room and placed the tray of food on the tea table.
Then, he looked around and asked, "Are you leaving already? Didn't you say you would leave in the evening?"
Catherine replied, "Sothing ca up. I have to move to the capital city before evening. My friend's husband ca. He will accompany her. So, don't freak out if you see her with a man."
She sat on the couch and Vincent sat beside her. He opened the lids of the pots and delicious slls touched her nostrils.
There were so soups, loaves of bread, eggs, sausages and desserts.
Catherine was touched. "Thank you for the al. I hardly had ti to eat fancy breakfast like this."
Vincent was pleased with her reaction. "I've told the kitchen to prepare the al especially for you. I hope it suits your taste."
Catherine assured him by saying, "Don't you worry. It definitely will. I'm just sad that I can't have this kind of al every day."
Vincent gently held her hand. "It's possible if you co here whenever you have free ti. You see, it's my family's resort and I'm the only heir. My mother takes care of the accounts and my father cos up with ideas to bring more custors here.
"That's why I have to be on the desk and sotis receive guests on their behalf. I can hardly have enough ti to relax, let alone go outside the mountains."
Catherine could feel him. She was like that when she lived in the temple. Still, she sneaked out often, unlike Veronica.
As for Vincent, this was his family business. He couldn't afford to be irresponsible and leave it to soone else.
She looked at him and stated, "Vincent, I have a suggestion."
