Successors of all mankind

What a coincidence!

Someone who made me feel different appeared.

Still in the name of Rome!

But she didn't care about any of that; in fact, she was increasingly looking forward to making entertainment even more special!

"Thank you, Your Highness."

"Sir, you should be aware of the respective religious leanings of the Sisters and the Human Machine Cult, shouldn't you?"

Yu Le reminisces about everything he knows.

"Yes, the nuns are more inclined towards humanity, while the human-machine priests are more inclined towards the divine machine?"

"Yes, more or less. They have almost divided their faiths, but their respective emphases are not the same."

"For countless years, the nuns have been working hard to bring back human remains scattered all over the world, while the Human Machine Cult is collecting those ancient divine machines everywhere."

"At first, they didn't intentionally collect or explore in a differentiated way. But later, when the Human Machine Cult discovered human remains, they would often notify the Sisters in exchange for the divine machines and ancient technologies they had accumulated!"

"The same goes for the nuns."

"Over time, the nuns built the largest holy tomb in history!"

"There, the remains of all the humans collected and brought back by the numerous nuns over the years are enshrined!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Le roughly understood, and he said in disbelief:

"Something happened at the Holy Tomb?"

The princess nodded and looked into the distance, towards the direction of the Holy Tomb:

"The Holy Sepulchre was built by the nuns together, but because of their different beliefs, the care and maintenance of the Holy Sepulchre are taken on a rotating basis by the three major sister orders."

"And not long ago, just as the White Sisters were about to hand over the reins to the Rose Sisters, the Holy Sepulchre was robbed!"

"I've even heard that the number is quite large!"

Was the Holy Sepulchre looted?

Under the watchful eye of one of the world’s most powerful religious organizations?

"How is this possible? Who did it?"

The princess shook her head and said:

“I don’t know either, Sir, but the Golden Dynasty must be the one capable of doing this. So, even though we are staunch allies with them, we are still suspected, because it is precisely because we are allies that we know them best!”

"However, they also respect my father, so for now they only have suspicions and haven't taken any further action."

"At the same time, all the Pure White Sisters were recalled in order to deal with this matter."

Is that really how it is?

Although Yu Le still doesn't fully understand this world, he knows how much impact this message will have on it once it goes viral.

The turmoil around the world is no joke.

Of course, if one's true identity were revealed, things would probably be even more outrageous...

Living humans and such.

As the two people, neither of whom were good at chatting, chatted idly, Yu Le accompanied the princess to her bedroom.

Looking at the moon indicates the late night.

The princess looked somewhat forlorn.

"Every beautiful day must come to an end."

However, she quickly regained her composure:

"But, Sir, every tomorrow from now on will be something to look forward to!"

Looking at the princess who was looking at him, Yu Le echoed:

"You are absolutely right, every tomorrow is something to look forward to, Your Highness."

This made the princess shake her head with amusement and say:

"No, you don't understand, Sir. But so what?"

She didn't quite understand her own thoughts and feelings, but as she said, so what?

As long as Constantine was by her side, she would have endless time to ponder, to verify, and to anticipate.

The world is no longer gloomy because of you. Praise be to humanity!

"However, Sir, could you please keep watch for me tonight?"

The princess turned to look at Yu Le and discussed something with him:

“I have never known what peace is. Darkness, foul smells, and fear have always been my constant companions. But you, Sir, could you keep watch for me? Because I think that might teach me what it means to sleep peacefully.”

It's truly laughable that she is the inheritor of the golden bloodline, the princess of this country.

One of the most powerful beings in the world.

However, her childhood was filled with fear.

But she had no way to vent or destroy; she could only endure it.

To the point that she didn't even know what sleep was.

Yu Le is her guardian knight, which is only natural.

But she didn't use commands; instead, she expressed expectations and discussed.

The little girl didn't know how to get along with people, but she also knew that it shouldn't be a superior-subordinate relationship.

She is awkwardly learning how to treat someone she doesn't want to lose. She may not even realize she's learning, but she is definitely learning.

Looking at the princess, Yu Le gazed at her for a moment, then nodded and said:

"Of course, Your Highness, it is my duty!"

At this moment, Albion's gold revealed an almost dazzling smile.

"Thank you, Sir."

And so, under the knight's protection, the princess finally found the peaceful sleep she had never expected.

Yu Le stood quietly outside the door, like a true knight, guarding a girl's dream.

Until the real night fell.

Yu Le looked around before whispering to Pandora:

"Is she asleep? Where is the Third Divine Machine? Let's sneak off and go find it!"

Pandora, who had been silent until now, finally gave a reply:

"She is asleep, sleeping very soundly, sir."

Yu Le was overjoyed:

"That's great! Let's slip away! Quick, give us directions, or we might have to be back before morning!"

"Um, I'm sorry, sir, I'm afraid you cannot leave."

Pandora's hesitant voice followed.

"Why?"

"She will wake up; she'll wake up the moment you leave. Her senses are extremely sharp!"

So perceptive?

Yu Le was shocked, and then looked back at the tightly closed door.

"Then why are we still talking at her door?"

"Please don't worry, she's sleeping very soundly!"

"Ha, I'm sleeping soundly, but I wake up when I leave... Something feels off?"

Yu Le looked intently at Pandora.

The other person also said awkwardly:

“I know this isn’t very reasonable, but sir, that’s the truth. We can look for an opportunity during the day!”

Yu Le had no choice but to follow its advice:

"Okay, so once you've promised someone, you can't try anything funny..."

They were like this at the gate, and surprisingly, they were the same way with the princess.

People should indeed keep their promises.

"But, do the knights here really go without sleep? I'm so sleepy!"

“They are indeed different from humans, after all, they are aliens. Including her, sir, I can assure you, she has never slept normally since birth, but it has almost no effect on her.”

I've never had a normal sleep since birth?

Chapter 22 The Third Divine Mechanism

Yu Le paused for a moment, then leaned against the door and said:

"That's outrageous."

“Yes, this individual’s strength truly deserves the title of ‘divine offspring.’ Therefore, we must be extremely careful, sir.”

Yu Le didn't answer; he simply gazed silently at the quiet palace before him.

Suddenly, Yu Le asked a question out of the blue:

"Pandora, can I really trust you?"

“My loyal tent wall is right, sir!”

The wall of loyalty is correct, but there is still no answer as to whether it can be trusted.

Yu Le shook his head with amusement, then slowly closed his eyes and said:

"I'm going to take a break."

“I am truly terrified that you have to rest under such conditions, but please believe me, this is just a minor setback on the necessary path.”

"Okay, but let me take a nap first."

Pandora's incessant chatter came to an abrupt halt, and Yule rested quietly against the door.

Yu Le was awakened by the light.

He remembered that he only closed his eyes for a moment, like the kind of "I'll just close my eyes for five minutes" kind of close-up on a long-distance bus, and then his consciousness jumped straight to dawn.

Sunlight streamed in from the side, waking him up.

It was completely different from what he had expected. He had thought he should still be leaning against the wall outside the door, with the arched ceiling of the corridor and the morning view of the palace in front of him.

But what came into view was the golden decor. It was the interior dome.

It has a soft, non-corridor-like feel.

He paused for a moment, then looked down and met a pair of golden eyes.

It was so close that he could see the fine, flowing patterns inside, like molten metal.

He was so close that he could even see himself in those eyes—an ordinary person who had just woken up and hadn't yet managed to shake off his bewildered expression.

The music is almost always played on a bouncy surface.

The movement was so fast that the back of his head almost hit the carved headboard behind him.

He sat up straight and took in his surroundings: this was the princess's room, or at least a place where she should rest.

The furnishings were much simpler than those in the banquet hall, without any glittering decorations, only dark wood and a few books. She herself was squatting by the bed, elbows propped on the edge of the bed, chin resting on the back of her hand, like a cat observing its prey.

But compared to her elegant demeanor at this moment, Yu Le actually felt that she was more like a golden retriever waiting for someone to wake up so she could play with her.

"Your Highness? I've fallen asleep?"

Yu Le heard himself ask this question.
