Chapter 361: The Awakened Lady of Light
Where is this…?
The Lady of Light slowly opened her eyes and found herself in what seemed to be her own bedroom.
However, upon closer inspection, she noticed that some things were a bit different.
The bed was softer, and the paintings on the walls were different from the ones she was familiar with.
Although the style was the same, the arrangement of the furniture was also different.
The Holy Maiden slowly sat up in bed and saw Janine Irene sprawled out beside her.
This Paladin was still fast asleep—although the effect of the Abyss Daydream Fruit had worn off, she didn’t seem to have any intention of waking up.
The Holy Maiden understood… her guardian knight was usually too tense most of the time.
Taking a break is actually a good thing.
What the Holy Maiden is concerned about in this room is, without a doubt, another person standing.
Standing by the window, wearing a robe almost identical to the Holy Maiden’s, leaving only a silhouette behind.
Without a doubt… this is her "senior."
The succubus known as "Lolth," who is a senior in the torture chamber of the Demon Army.
Lolth’s presence also reminds the Lady of Light of her current situation, making her recall everything she just experienced.
Lured by the enemy with a Light Artifact as bait, she tried to seize it but failed, and then her spatial magic also failed, causing her to lose consciousness and faint.
During this time, she woke up once and found herself in a building filled with the style of the demon race, but before she could escape, she fainted again.
When she woke up again, she was in this room filled with the style of The Church of Light, resembling her own bedroom.
The Lady of Light could easily guess that it was her former mentor, who had fallen into a "succubus," who had played tricks on her.
At this thought, her face turned slightly red.
After all, the images in those dreams were surely the tricks of the succubus.
Although her memory was not very clear, she still remembered that she had just had a shameful and confusing dream.
Leaving all that aside, it was clear where she was.
"This is the Interrogation Room for the Church of Light, right…?"
Looking at the figure before her, the Lady of Light, who pushed down her jumbled thoughts, slowly asked.
When Lolth heard her voice, she turned around with a surprising expression.
"Oh, you’re awake… Hmm, this is the Interrogation Room for the Church of Light. Do you have any questions?"
Lolth looked at the Lady of Light and smiled as she asked.
At that moment, Lolth also let out a sigh of relief.
It seemed that the other person did not intend to talk about her recent dream… which was wonderful.
She decided to pretend she hadn’t heard anything.
The Lady of Light looked at her gentle expression and friendly face, and fell silent for a moment.
Then, she spoke again.
"Did you arrange this place yourself?"
She asked softly.
Lolth found this question a bit strange.
"Of course, what’s wrong? Is there a problem? Um, maybe my style is a bit too old-fashioned, right?"
It was the first time she encountered someone critiquing her imitated decorating style, so she couldn’t help but feel a little nervous.
At that time, Tina and Isabella had no reaction at all, and the South Sotua mercenaries didn’t dare to make a sound. Although Mr. Gandhi Alter was a particular man, he never commented on her Seychelles interrogation room.
Thinking about how she had added her own understanding to the style of The Church of Light, Lolth was still a bit afraid that these small changes would make this Holy Maiden prejudge her.
After all, no matter how twisted, repressed, or filled with strange fantasies this Holy Maiden might be, since she couldn’t get rid of her in a short time, she had to maintain a good facade.
She absolutely couldn’t recreate the misunderstanding that Tina and Isabella had at the beginning!
The Lady of Light nodded slightly upon hearing Lolth’s words.
"I see…"
She became once again convinced that this senior had indeed once been a Holy Maiden.
The current owner of the room in Eden Palace naturally is the Holy Maidens of previous generations.
The royal family and nobles of the Holy Empire have changed many times, and the borders of the Papal State and Holy Capital have also changed, but the Eden Palace, chosen by the God of Light, has not changed for thousands of years.
All the Holy Maidens and popes live there.
The Holy Maiden’s chamber is a place where generations of Holy Maidens have lived.
"It seems this is not a special interrogation room prepared for myself."
The Lady of Light looked at the furnishings around her and thought to herself.
These small differences are probably how her predecessor’s Holy Maiden chamber looked when she lived here.
She must be feeling nostalgic…
Indeed, even though this predecessor has "fallen," she does not seem to have lost her mind or self as indicated in the materials about "falling."
She still had her own memories and soul, and it seemed that even her nature had not become harsh or extravagant.
Although she did not yet know who "Lolth" really was, she also did not know how her personality had been back then.
However, the Holy Maiden had reason to believe that Lolth’s personality had not changed much.
There was even a moment when… a question appeared in the Holy Maiden’s mind.
"Has she really fallen?"
But the Lady of Light quickly remembered her recent dream…
Her cheeks flushed with warmth.
Indeed, people are complex…
This senior had indeed fallen, but perhaps some remnants of her time as the "Holy Maiden" still lingered.
But anyway, she and I are enemies right now.
And I exist here as her prisoner.
"So, what are you planning to do, senior?"
Lady of Light looked at Lolth and gently asked again.
Lolth felt relieved when she heard this.
"That’s great! If we can talk, it means there is no big misunderstanding…"
Lolth looked at Lady of Light with great comfort, then gave a reply that Lady of Light had never imagined.
"I have no intention of torturing you or being your enemy."
"You just need to wait here until the right moment, and then I will let you go."
"But you better not try to cause any trouble… Since you are the Lady of Light, you shouldn’t harm innocent people, right?"
"After that, you can walk around the town freely with your knight… Hmm… You can try to escape, but I don’t recommend it."
"In any case, I still suggest you wait for your ‘master’ or ‘church’ to come to your rescue."
"That’s all."
Lolth finished speaking and gave the Lady of Light a kind look.
The Lady of Light heard this and slightly nodded in agreement.
"I understand, elder…"
Lolth looked at the unexpectedly cooperative Lady of Light and felt immense joy.
It was even a bit surprising.
"Oh… okay! Then you can be alone for a while, and later talk to your knight too."
She turned and walked towards the door.
Afterwards, as if she remembered something, she casually asked.
"By the way… why do you call me ‘senior’?"
