Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination

Chapter 434: The First Devil in the Holy Cathedral's Territory

Not only the holy knights but Sylvia was also shocked to look at the little angel with a golden aura.

"You-" Patrick froze on the spot, as did the other holy knights. He wanted to say something, but it just stuck in his throat.

It only took a second to realize the identity of that little Goddess. She was the Goddess of Blessings herself!

Dozens of thoughts and reflections crossed Patrick's mind. So, he just attacked the Goddess of Blessings' group because of the false alarm earlier? What a great and grave sin! However, was that so?

Patrick paid close attention to the girl with the sunglasses, then to the girl with purplish-blue eyes. After being observed repeatedly, this purplish-blue-eyed girl was indeed similar to the Goddess of Light's disciple.

However, even if that were true, it would not justify the devil suspect pleading for protection there.

"This humble knight begs your forgiveness, O holy divinity. There is no reason to justify my actions. I am ready to accept any punishment for the sins I have committed." Patrick knelt down and put one hand on his chest. After he said that, he pointed at the girl who was hiding behind Elysia. "But, the girl with the sunglasses over there is a devil suspect. injured him for an investigation."

Realizing the truth, the other holy knights also knelt down to pay their respects to their Goddess.

"Hmm..." Nell just harrumphed and folded her arms. She glanced at the girl behind Elysia with some considerations in mind. 'Elysia, do you know that girl? With my magic vision, I can tell that the girl is a real devil.'

'En, I know this devil girl. However, we don't know what happened and who was at fault. Can you ask that holy knight for an explanation of what's going on in this city, Nell?' Elysia could feel the tension. She hoped that this Devil Princess didn't get involved in anything evil. Or, she needed to act decisively on the neutral side.

'I see... All right then.' Nell heaved a subtle sigh. A Saint-level devil in this holy city...

If it wasn't for Elysia, she would have caught that devil girl to squeeze out some information.

However, there was still another way to squeeze out some information nonetheless. With that being said, Nell returned her attention to the kneeling holy knight. "I will take care of that devil suspect. Explain to me what happened in this holy city in my absence."

"Understood." Patrick nodded slightly then began to retell what had really happened. He wasn't afraid to say anything because he realized that his comrade had put up a soundproofing barrier.

It was started with a holy knight's encounter with a low-class devil who had infiltrated the city in an almost perfect disguise. An in-depth investigation was carried out to find out the root of the problem.

Unfortunately, that led to discovering a group of devils that had already infiltrated the holy city.

Not to mention, last night, it was reported that a devil with a purple aura was already in this city, and several fatalities had fallen.

"I see... So, this holy city has become like the current tense state because a large army is thoroughly searching that evil group. No one was allowed to enter or leave the city for any reason since last night?" Nell patted her chin while digesting the information.

"As you said." Patrick looked up at the Goddess of Blessings and replied with a resolute nod.

"Alright, we'll go to the Holy Cathedral. You may return to your mission to explore every corner of the city in search of those devil intruders." Nell ordered after making a decision.

"Please allow our elite team to escort you to the Holy Cathedral, o holy divinity, the Goddess of Blessings." Patrick offered respectfully.

"Okay, but a few is enough. Stand up, and that's it from me." Nell moved her hand from the bottom up.

The holy knights immediately stood up. The two generals immediately arranged for a team to escort the Goddess of Blessings' group. They were both also included. So, two generals and three holy knights became the team in question.

Before going to the Holy Cathedral, Patrick ventured to ask. "This may sound impolite, but have you come with diplomats of other races, o the Goddess of Blessings?"

He looked at the animal ears above the white-haired girl's head, then at the fully-armored three-meter-tall dragon-like man. He didn't need to think twice and could quickly identify them as non-humans.

"Yeah, you could say it like that. Don't try to offend anyone in my little group if you don't want to get any backlash." Nell delivered a reminder for the common good.

"But, from the scriptures, this is a holy city for humans. No other race is allowed to enter the Holy Cathedral." Patrick said that in a flat tone.

"That's true, but in ordinary situations. It's me who needs to be considered in the matter. They come as no one but part of my group. And, they can no longer be referred to as merely the other races." Nell included an implicit explanation in her answer. She didn't want any disputes to occur.

Patrick didn't answer right away because he was thinking fast. He looked at the group before him once more.

"Are you the one who hates any races other than humans, sir golden armored knight? Here, I'll give you a souvenir from Beastkin Continent." Yuuki controlled the wind magic to make an orange cat ears headband float the full golden armored holy knight.

She just put the cat ears headband on his head, or rather his golden knight helmet.

"You are now similar to the Beastkin Race, so do you hate yourself too?" Yuuki asked with a questioning look.

"..." Patrick didn't know what to say.

"Well then, I returned your helmet. You are a big grown man with authority and have a high level of power. Please keep your hatred to yourself because the others will also be affected by it." Yuuki simply left the cat ears headband on the holy knight's helmet.

Seeing that, Elysia, Rhea, and Nell just smiled faintly. Then, Nell went to guide her group to the Holy Cathedral.

Sylvia followed suit. She absolutely did not dare to stay away from her friend's side. For so many reasons, she felt safe there even though she didn't know what was going on.

"Ais... I-" Sylvia glanced at her friend's face, but she couldn't understand anything from that neutral expression.

"Please save what you want to say for later, Aivlys. We will have a conversation at an appropriate time and place. You are now under my protection, don't try to get out of my sight, or I can't guarantee your safety." Elysia glanced at Sylvia briefly. She ultimately couldn't understand why this Devil Princess come to this holy city.

Rhea also glanced at the disguised devil girl. She did nothing but watch that devil girl's each and every move.

"Un... Thank you very much. I also want to talk to you about many things, Ais." Sylvia nodded in relief. Even though they were really going to the Holy Cathedral, she didn't need to be too afraid since there was a divine being and her friend nearby.

'Nee, Ely~ Could it be that this silly Devil Princess came to the holy city, the most dangerous place for devils, just to look for you because you dumped her? You've become famous lately, right? After all, you are one of three owners of Lavely Pizza and a top supermodel for beautiful dresses. It wouldn't be too difficult for Sylvia to figure it out. It's only a matter of time.' Elena tried to guess what really happened, so Sylvia dared to go to the holy city.

Elysia stopped in her tracks and widened her eyes slightly. She looked at Sylvia with some worry, but she only got an innocent gaze in return.

'Is that possible? This silly girl ran away from her father's palace on the Devil Continent to look for me? What does she want from me, to begin with?' Elysia was shrouded in doubt and obscurity. She also couldn't openly ask for some mental reason.

'Hehe, did you forget that? This silly Devil Princess is your adventurous friend. Even though it was short, it was a real experience. This girl has no friends. That's what she said before you entered her friend list, but with two different identities.' Elena reminded with a gentle tone.

Then, she went on to take a more gentle approach to convey a piece of advice. 'Do you still feel cheated and lied to? Or maybe, feel betrayed? Ely, this girl has no ill will toward you. Why don't you give her a chance to explain everything to you?'

'All right, I was just feeling disappointed, and that's all. That doesn't mean I hate Sylvia or hold any grudge against her.' Elysia continued on her way to catch up with Nell in front.

Then, the others immediately followed Elysia, although no one knew why Elysia suddenly stopped her steps.

'Fufu, that's my Ely.' Elena giggled and gave an approving nod.

Upon arriving at the bridge to the island of the Holy Cathedral, Sylvia slowly relaxed and returned to her cheerful self. She looked around as she was crossing the holy bridge to the Holy Cathedral.

She was probably the first devil to enter the Holy Cathedral's territory without any obstacles.

"Wow, the water there is so clear and has lots of fish! It must be fun to play in the water. I want to go to the beach for the sea..." Sylvia muttered as she looked down at the river under the bridge.

After that, she immediately returned to her friend's side to save herself from the fierce gazes of the holy knights behind.
