Chapter 489: The Rite of the Holy Maiden (2)

In a huge dormitory in the Thousand Holy Kingdom, candlelight illuminates the entire dormitory.

The furnishings in the dormitory are very simple, except for a fine table, chairs, a huge bed, and a few wardrobes, and that's it. Because of this arrangement, the whole dormitory looks very empty, and it looks a little weird. In the room, looking at the layout, it should be a woman's room, but in this room, there is not even a mirror.

A slender woman dressed in black sat quietly in front of a chair. Not only was she dressed in black, but she also wore a black scarf on her face, and she also wore a certain big black hat on her head, which concealed her appearance so tightly that she couldn't even see her eyes.

The woman's whole body was shrouded in black, and it was as if she had become one with the black. The woman lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking. There was a silent and terrifying aura on her body, and no one knew where it came from.

Not far from the woman, there stood a maid dressed in black, who stood respectfully, but when she raised her head to look at the woman, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes.

The woman seemed to be aware of the maid's gaze, and she said lightly: "The Holy Maiden Ceremony, I heard that it will be held in the main square the day after tomorrow?" What did the Lord say? As soon as the woman spoke, the maidservant's body trembled slightly.

Not for anything else, just because the woman's voice was not only hoarse, but also her throat seemed to be blocked, and the muffled voice came out of her throat, as if she had accidentally stepped on the dry leaves on the ground, with a rough smell, which made people feel uncomfortable from the bottom of their hearts.

Although the maid had a little fear in her heart, she also had to answer the woman's words, after all, she was the future saint of the Thousand Holy Kingdom. Although her current identity is no different from that of a saint, she is not a real saint if she has not gone through the sainthood ceremony and has not been recognized by the altar.

But now the treatment given to her by the Lord is no different from that of a true saint. She is just a little maidservant, even if there is a trace of dissatisfaction in her heart, but she is soft-spoken, and naturally she doesn't say anything.

"Return...... Your Highness, the Rite of the Holy Maiden is indeed held the day after tomorrow. At that time, all the people of the Thousand Holy Kingdom will appear in the main square to watch this holy ceremony, and Her Royal Highness only needs to complete the corresponding things according to the instructions. The Lord asked Her Highness not to worry, the ceremony of the Holy Maiden will definitely go smoothly. ”

When the woman heard the words of the maidservant, her head was raised slightly, as if she was looking in the direction of the maidservant through the face scarf. The servant girl only felt a somewhat gloomy gaze fall on her, causing a slight chill to her back. The maidservant stood across from the woman and couldn't help but shudder again.

The maid glanced at the woman with some fear, then bowed her head deeply and assumed a respectful posture.

The woman looked at the posture of the maidservant fixedly, and then slowly spoke: "Since this is the case, let's do it according to the Lord's will, if there is anything else, there is news from the Lord, you will notify me as soon as possible." ”

The head of the slave and maid was lowered.

"Yes, the slave knows."

"Let's go down." These three words are still like a knife on glass, which is unbearable. But at this moment, when she heard the ears of the maidservant, it was like heaven, and she had never felt that the voice of Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden at this moment was so beautiful. Although before, she had never been able to stand the voice of the saint.

As the servant maid of Her Highness the Holy Maiden, she also wondered why Her Highness had been in the Thousand Holy Realms for so long, but she had never shown up. Even if she was a personal servant, she had never seen what Her Royal Highness really looked like.

Perhaps outsiders think that this Holy Highness must be as beautiful as a fairy, or from a very prominent hidden family that even they don't know. Otherwise, how could he have been chosen by the Lord all at once?

But in the eyes of the maidservant, I'm afraid this is not the case. Even if she doesn't know the truth, for this holy highness, it will definitely not be a beautiful woman. Not to mention, she has never shown her appearance, but whenever she is by her side, Her Royal Highness will never lift her veil. She wouldn't even take off her hat, let alone her veil.

To exaggerate it, if it weren't for her figure, the maidservant would probably have to wonder whether this holy highness was a man or a woman.

And since Her Royal Highness entered the palace of the Holy Maiden, she ordered that all the mirrors and things that could reflect light in the palace be disposed of. Obviously, Her Highness did not want to see herself through these things.

Because of this, there is such a guess in the heart of the servant. But she was just a servant, how dare she say such a rebellious thing, unless she didn't want her own life.

The temperament of Her Highness is also unpredictable. If she doesn't like to be around her, she won't give herself a good look. Even if you are by her side, you must always be on guard not to do things that upset her. Otherwise, you will only suffer in the end.

This is also why, although she is the personal servant of Her Royal Highness, she is envied and admired by many slaves and maids, but she can't keep up her spirits at all.

The maidservants in the Thousand Holy Kingdom Palace all thought that it was a very lucky thing that she could become the maidservants of Her Royal Highness. After all, this is the Holy Highness personally chosen by the Lord! It's not that any kind of person has such an honor to be able to serve by the side of His Highness the Holy Maiden. What's good, but it's hers.

At the beginning, she became the personal servant of Her Royal Highness, and she was happy for a long time. But she didn't expect that this new Holy Highness would have such a strange personality and make people not know how to deal with it. She had been at the side of Her Highness for several months, and she had never even seen her face. Isn't it a joke to say it?

And in the saint's bedroom, everything about her is a taboo and cannot be mentioned lightly. When she came to the Holy Maiden's Dormitory, she was the current Lord Shengbai, and she personally instructed herself.

At that time, she didn't understand why Lord Shengbai would do such a thing himself, she was just a little maidservant. But now that she understands the character of Her Highness the Holy Maiden, she can finally understand why Lord Shengbai would say this.

The maid didn't dare to think too much, she bowed respectfully to the saint, and then hurried back.

After the maidservant closed the door of the dormitory, the dormitory was quiet again.

The saint sat in it, silent, as if out of place in this earthly world.

After a while, she raised her head slightly, looked in the direction of the door, and didn't know what she was thinking.

After a long time, her hoarse and ugly voice slowly came out of the veil.

"Homeland Tournament, heh, you're going to participate, right? When the time comes, I will definitely let you know what kind of evil consequences you brought to me when you treated me like this! Let's wait and see. I'm looking forward to meeting you. After the saint said these words slowly, she suddenly burst out laughing.

But her laughter was unbearable. The throat that seemed to have been crushed by it was mixed with endless weirdness and gloom, and people couldn't help but get goosebumps just by hearing her laughter.

Luckily, the maid had already left. Otherwise, maybe she would have been scared a lot.

After laughing to herself, the saint fell silent again. But the hatred in her laughter lasted for a long time in this dormitory.

Perhaps no one knows except the saint herself, who she is talking about.

"Knock knock—" Outside the hall, there was a sudden knock on the door.

The saint was slightly stunned, and then said hoarsely: "Come in-"

The door creaked open, and a man dressed in black appeared outside the main hall. He looked at the holy woman, then strode in, and soon walked in front of the holy woman.

"Your Highness—" He stood in front of her and bowed slightly.

The saint looked at the man in front of her, and said with a wry smile: "There are only us here, why do you want to bow to me?" ”

The man straightened up and looked at the saint, but there was no special expression on his face.

"You will soon be a saint, as the Holy Maiden of the Thousand Holy Kingdoms, even if I am an elder, the etiquette I should have when I see you is still indispensable."

The man in front of him is not Lord Shengbai, who else?

The saint looked at Sheng Bai, as if she had thought of something, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

"Lord Shengbai, your words are serious. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am today. After all, everything I am now is what you brought to me. If it weren't for you - "I would have died a long time ago."

The second half of the saint's words were not spoken, but the saint could know what she was trying to say.

"Your Highness, you don't have to think about the things that should be rotten. Now you are a new you. It's no longer the same you you used to be. ”

When the saint heard this, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, even if the saint white couldn't see it at all, he could feel that the saint was indeed smiling.

He glanced at the Holy Maiden with some pity, and then said, "The day after tomorrow is the Holy Maiden Ceremony, are you ready?" Your face ......"

The saint nodded, she stretched out her hand, gently pulled her face towel, and then said, "Don't worry, I will uncover the face towel at the holy women's ceremony the day after tomorrow." I can't let so many people only see me like this when the time comes. It's not easy for you to explain to the Lord. ”

Sheng Bai looked at the face towel that the saint lifted slightly, and saw a piece of snow-white skin, he also nodded, slightly relieved.

"It seems that the effect is not bad. In that case, I will not disturb your rest, and if there is anything you want, you can send your maidservant to me at any time. ”

"Okay."

The figure of the holy white disappeared outside the dormitory, and the holy woman put the veil down again.

She seemed to think of something, then chuckled lightly, and said, "This time, I want to see what kind of team will come out of the country." I'm looking forward to it. ”
