Soon the Vatican sent people to verify Saint Audrey's identity.

In the Middle Ages.

Women had no status.

Even after Audrey became a saint, this remained true.

Becoming a saint in this way actually carries great risks.

To put it nicely, it was because they were called by God.

Because of your piety, you became a saint with mystical powers.

But what about the other side?

Others might say you're a witch with the power to harm others.

How can you tell the difference?

Bind the hands and feet of those suspected of being witches.

They threw it directly into the river.

If you help someone up, it means you are a witch and possess the power of the devil.

If you sink, it means you are innocent.

They might also use needles or sharp knives to stab your entire body.

Searching for the marks of the devil.

Just like a stigmata, it could possess the power of a demon.

That too will bear the mark of the devil.

If there is no pain and no bleeding, then it is a witch.

If you are bleeding all over your body, it means you are a normal person.

The most classic way is to burn it with fire.

If nothing happens, it means she is a witch, protected by the power of the devil.

If she was burned to death, it would prove she was innocent.

That's right, this was how witches were identified in the Middle Ages.

But there was no way around it; that was just how society was in the Middle Ages.

There is only a fine line between a saint and a witch.

If someone is not recognized by the Vatican, then they are a witch.

If you are recognized by the Vatican, then you are a saint.

Such saintly women are extremely rare.

Extremely rare.

However, Audrey was fortunate enough to awaken in the town of Angel Pit.

Bishop Arno would certainly protect Audrey at all costs.

How could Audrey be called a witch?

If Audrey was a witch, wouldn't that mean that under such divine light...

Has the devil still managed to infiltrate?

This is obviously impossible.

In addition, Arno also needed such a saintess to increase his prestige.

Therefore, Audrey must be a saint, and can only be a saint.

The Vatican was also very willing to give Arnold face.

After all, on the surface, Audrey was the result of being a saint.

This will benefit the Vatican more.

It's just a formality.

The Vatican quickly confirmed Audrey's identity as a saint.

A saint personally conferred a title by the Pope.

Audrey watched as she was personally canonized as a saint by the Holy See.

A mix of emotions welled up inside me.

It's not that Audrey wasn't devout.

Audrey was a very traditional person.

I started memorizing the Bible from a young age.

I can recite the Bible backwards, even some of the Gospels.

Audrey was also well-versed in it.

If she hadn't been a woman, Audrey would have been more than qualified to be a scholar of the Bible.

However, because of her identity as a woman, Audrey could only get married.

She went out to be a wife and mother.

However, Audrey's life seems to be starting to change now.

"From this day forward, you will dedicate your life to the Lord."

"From now on you shall not engage in illicit sexual activity, procreation, or marriage."

"To dedicate one's life to God."

However, Audrey didn't know how to talk to her father's family about it.

Soon after Audrey was canonized as a saint.

He then returned to his family.

Whether Audrey became a saint or at a banquet, she was always there.

In fact, they all wore veils. If she didn't have a veil, Audrey would use a fan to cover her face.

This is the refinement of a noblewoman.

This was true for noblewomen in the Middle Ages.

So even today, not many people can really recognize Audrey's face.

All I know is that Audrey's words and actions are those of a noblewoman.

Only someone who has received an aristocratic education from childhood would behave in such a manner.

Audrey soon returned to her family after completing her pilgrimage.

The current head of the Toulouse family, and also Audrey's father.

He watched as his most beloved daughter returned to the family.

"Audrey," Audrey's father, who was also the current patriarch of Toulouse, asked with a smile, "How is it?"

"Was this pilgrimage trip fun?"

“Replying to Father.” Audrey performed a standard aristocratic bow.

Audrey's father was very pleased with his youngest daughter.

Audrey was very intelligent from a young age, smarter than her older brothers and sisters.

He could tell from a young age.

They learn to read and write very quickly.

Even the family's private tutor praised it in the same way.

Many times, Audrey's teachers said...

If only Audrey were a man.

They will surely achieve great things in the future.

However, if it were a man, it would be a headache for him, the clan chief.

After all, if Audrey were a man, he would really hesitate.

Who will ultimately take the reins of the Toulouse family?

According to tradition, the throne would only be passed on to the eldest son of the legitimate wife.

But looking at her eldest son, he had the air of a spoiled brat.

There's absolutely no way to help them.

"Why do so many geniuses return from pilgrimages?" Audrey's father asked, puzzled.

According to the normal travel schedule, they should have returned four or five days earlier.

However, Audrey was four or five days late in returning to her family.

Audrey explained, "Because my daughter found the town of Angel Pit very interesting."

"I stayed there a few more days to make myself feel better."

“Father, the town of Angel Pit truly possesses the blessing of angels.”

Audrey's father stroked his beard.

He also knew that his daughter had been smiling a lot lately.

But they were all that kind of aristocratic fake smile.

As a father, how could he not know how his youngest daughter felt?

"I heard that a saintess emerged in the town of Angel's Pit," Audrey's father casually remarked.

Weren't you in that small town back then?

"Did you see who that saintess was?"

Audrey's father said softly, "If only this saintess were from our Toulouse family."

Audrey's father remarked with emotion.

Audrey then slowly said, "It is indeed my daughter."

Audrey's father didn't react for a moment, "It's you?"

"What?" Audrey's father stood up abruptly, his beard twitching.

"Audrey, what did you just say?"

Audrey said expressionlessly, "That saintess is my daughter."

Audrey's father beamed with ecstatic joy.

I just can't believe it yet.

He paced back and forth a few more times, glancing at Audrey.

“Hahaha,” Audrey’s father finally couldn’t help but say, “My daughter has become a saint.”

Audrey's father had recently been worrying about his daughter's marriage.

He had originally found a good family for his daughter.

The other party is royalty.

My daughter is destined to be an imperial concubine.

However, due to the failure of the Ninth Crusade.

All of this was out of the question, and even the marriage became a laughing stock in aristocratic circles.

As the head of the Toulouse family, he was naturally embarrassed.

But things are different now.

His daughter became a saint!

All problems were solved. (End of Chapter)
