Whereas Calix pretended to be a saint, his sister was being tortured mentally. Though their our bodies had been separate entities, he might vaguely really feel it as a result of they had been twins with related souls.

Due to this, there have been days when he felt on the verge of insanity—moreover, bidding farewell to family members and pretending to be a feminine saint with the thoughts and physique of a wholesome male.

If he didn’t wish to get caught, he needed to maintain pulling divine powers from his sister, Callistea. Calix cursed his plight, not in a position even to free himself by means of suicide.

As a result of he by no means knew what would occur to his family members.

“Oh, my goddess.”

Damia was appalled on the horrible fact. She remembered the record of provides she had introduced from his father’s library as she listened to him.

A couple of years in the past, the Excessive Temple had ordered giant quantities of narcotic herbs and sedatives. Now that she thought of it, it should have been about the identical time.

As a way to forcefully maintain Callistea along with her mighty holy powers, they must administer no less than that a lot. So, after drugging her right into a terrifying stupor and imprisoning her as a half-corpse, they drew and used her powers at will.

It was a genuinely horrifying plan.

‘However why did Calix be a part of and comply this plan?’

Frequent sense meant he should have refused. Nevertheless, Calix’s conduct, which changed his youthful sister on the temple’s command, was overly determined.

Why did he attempt to impersonate the Saint so desperately? After all, Damia wasn’t an fool both, so she rapidly realized the explanation.

“Calix-nim, are you being threatened proper now?”

At these phrases, Calix slumped with helplessness.

His twin sister was already detained. And in case you threaten to take the existence of your family members, Noela and Cesare, hostage… … Calix couldn’t refuse the command of the temple.

Not like his sister, he wasn’t powerful. He additionally beloved Noela a lot that he shuddered in worry that he wouldn’t have the ability to perform orders properly, nevermind retaliate.

‘Simply in case they hurt Noela.’

Calix, with all his secrets and techniques revealed, bowed his head. Shaking, he was skinny like a scarecrow, and it appeared that he might by no means hurt anybody.

She didn’t wish to hassle him anymore however had one last item to examine. Damia sighed and requested,

“Noela, I don’t know what her actual identify is… … Anyway, did my stepmother learn about this?”

Because the successor of the Primula household, this was an important challenge. Did Noela deceive everybody maliciously, know all the pieces, and be a part of this conspiracy? Or… … .

“She is aware of nothing,”

Calix responded with a tone of resignation.

“When Nora first reported me lacking, she most likely thought I used to be already lifeless. Due to this fact she married your father.”

Apparently, Noela’s actual identify was Nora. It was troublesome to see the bearings of an aristocratic girl, so she should be a commoner.

“The temple prevented me from contacting Nora. It was a measure they took as a result of they had been afraid that the truth that I used to be an alternative choice to a saint would leak out. He threatened to do her hurt to Callistea if I acquired in contact with Nora or met her secretly.”

Between the lady he beloved and his twin sister, which one ought to he select? The weak-hearted Calix couldn’t select only one.

Till now.

“They promised that even when I couldn’t meet Nora and if I cooperated with them …… they promised to have her settle in an excellent place with an excellent man. Somebody who would by no means belittle her, and would deal with Cesare as if he had been his personal little one.”

Calix, who had already misplaced one in all his kids attributable to his weak point, couldn’t refuse the supply. Damia, unaware of this, requested whereas clasping her brow,

“You imply that good man… … .”

“Sure, it was your father.”

Damia felt offended by Calix’s reply. Her father, Owen, was a superb man with honest sympathy for Noela, who had nowhere to go and welcomed her as his second spouse.

She was dissatisfied with the mindset of the temple and Calix, who used her father’s good intentions like an object to govern and peddle.

‘However my stepmother doesn’t appear to have met Calix after remarriage. Then Leon should be my father’s little one.’

It was a aid. If Noela went backward and forward to the temple and had an affair with Calix… … Simply serious about it was terrifying.

Damia felt confused as she recalled her youthful brother’s face along with his wide-eyed grin. Within the meantime, Calix’s confession continued:

“If I did the job properly because the excessive priest instructed me, they might sometimes ship the information of Nora as in the event that they had been throwing meals. That alone was sufficient to fulfill me.”

After all, he could be mendacity if he mentioned his coronary heart didn’t damage. However Nora, who went by means of all kinds of hardships as a result of she beloved a person like him, was doing properly as a woman.

On prime of that, Cesare, who was handled like a temple orphan turned the adopted son of a rich nobleman. So Calix had no alternative however to clench his tooth and endure the ache alone.

It was the most effective and final consideration for the household he had failed to guard and supply for.

“… … However information about Nora and Cesare was reduce off a number of months in the past.”

“Why?”

“As a result of Prince Heinrich was beginning to suspect that the ‘air pollution’ and the Holy Struggle towards it was artificially manipulated.”

Naturally, the surveillance community within the palace turned a lot stricter than earlier than. Due to this, Calix, who was staying on the royal palace, no totally different from any enemy, might barely breathe, nevermind transfer.

All letters from the Excessive Temple had been secretly being censored and below strict surveillance by the Crown Prince. So that they delivered solely concise notes in all kinds of secret methods.

In the meantime, there was no information about Nora or Cesare. Because of this, Calix, who had survived solely on affection for his household, was half-crazy with anxiousness.

To the purpose of embarking on a reckless journey that was out of character.
