And the ritual refining method she used happened to be quite mind-consuming.

As a result, when the final was nearly three-fifths through, Tohka Takamiya couldn't hold on any longer and fainted on the court in front of everyone.

If it were just that, members of school teams from other countries might be surprised, but that's all.

The real accident happened after the girl fainted!

As she lay on the ground, her entire body was emitting an incomparably dazzling golden light.

There were no ordinary people among the audience in the arena. After their vision was briefly affected by the light, they immediately activated their detection warlocks.

Afterwards, both the contestants on the field and the spectators in the audience saw a purple-haired girl with wings on her back floating out of Tohka Takamiya's body.

Similar to the guardian angel of Saint Aisha Edes, this girl also has long purple hair, but the clothes she wears are not Himajun, but a set of golden full-covering armor.

"!!!!"

"Angel?!"

"The second angel?!"

"Isn't there only one guardian angel in each era?"

"Or is it that it's not an angel at all?"

……

The school team members from the Royal, Iron Blood, White Eagle, and Northern Alliance couldn't help but whisper to each other.

This is truly the biggest change that everyone has encountered since the joint entrance examination began.

As for the Church and the Empire...

When Bishop Eva saw Tohka Chongmiya perform the hymn "Hymn of the Stars" yesterday, she was actually shaken.

It was only because he had more faith in his own Saint, who had been confirmed through numerous rituals of the Seven Stars Church, that he did nothing and said nothing.

This time, he was no exception. After discovering the illusory angel floating above the girl, he immediately stood up and said in a gloomy tone:

"Mr. Nura, please ask the Onmyoji to give me an explanation from the Church!"

After she said this, the school team members on the Vatican's side, who were originally a little hesitant, immediately reaffirmed their stance.

They all stood up and acted as a cheering group:

"Yes, this is a provocation to our Holy See!"

"Your Highness the Saint only has Miss Aisha!"

"Please arrest contestant Chonggong immediately and hand him over to us after the game!"

……

"So, that's what happened~"

Lisa Veneto was watching the farce not far away. As her family was the empire's recorder, she almost immediately understood the truth after searching her own memory.

"Aunt Lisa, can you tell us what happened?"

Xiel asked curiously.

Although the others did not speak, there was a similar glint in their eyes.

Lisa Veneto nodded. Among all the people present, there were probably only a few people besides her who knew the whole story, or could deduce everything.

"Who do you think is the real saint, Aisha Edes or the one called Chonggong Juxiang?"

She did not immediately tell her deduction, but instead asked this question.

Among the contestants from the Empire, there are a total of two from the seven major families. Among them, Mas Hohenheim is now refining magic weapons on the stage. The remaining one, Xiel, although unwilling to admit it, has also witnessed the miracles performed by Aisha Edes with his own eyes.

Then he answered slowly: "Probably, it's the one from the Vatican."

All the other imperial contestants with lesser family backgrounds, without exception, answered Aisha Edes.

The empire was one country with the Holy See hundreds of years ago, so of course it knew how reliable the methods used by the Seven Stars Church to detect the Saint were.

From the ancient past to the present, there has never been a problem.

In other words...

Regardless of whether Tohka Soumiya of Sakura Empire is a saint, at least, Aisha Edith cannot be not!

However, after hearing everyone's answers, Lisa Veneto smiled and shook her head.

"Seventeen years ago, according to the report from the Empire's staff at the Vatican Embassy, ​​they witnessed an 'angel falling' in the sky south of the Vatican's capital."

——Angel has fallen.

It sounds like a bad word.

In fact, it is the only means by which the legendary angels living in another dimension can descend to the Blue Planet.

Every time an angel falls, a girl under one year old will be blessed by the angel and grow up to be a saint who can protect the Holy See in the future.

This has been the case throughout history.

but……

"There was a small problem with the 'Angel Fall' that time." Lisa Veneto continued: "The golden light column that fell from the sky, after landing at a height of one thousand meters above the ground, had a small-scale explosion under the gaze of everyone."

"At the time, Eva's father and other high-ranking officials of the Vatican were very nervous, fearing that something might go wrong with the ceremony and that the birth of the Saint would be interrupted."

"We later found Aisha Edes, who was still a baby at the time, through the identification ceremony. Although we were puzzled about what happened in between, we did not continue to investigate."

"Now it seems that the explosion should have split the angel, a high-dimensional creature without a real form, into two parts, large and small."

"The big piece was lodged in the body of Aisha Edes, and was eventually found by the church."

"And the small part..." Lisa Veneto pointed towards the center of the arena, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be inside that Somiya Tohka now."

"..."xn

The Empire remained silent upon hearing this.

——A saint is not necessarily a member of the Vatican.

The young boys and girls naturally understand this.

After all, the previous Saint was born in the Northern Union. When her parents brought her to the capital of the Vatican for a tour, she was chosen by a descended angel and took up residence in his body.

As for Tohka Chongmiya...

Come to think of it, the situation is not much different.

"So, Ms. Veneto, what do we need to do next?"

The person asking the questions was the young patriarch of a medium-sized family.

"Should we help the Sakura Empire? Or should we wait and see?"

He did not offer the option of helping the Holy See - because of past history, the Empire and the Holy See could sit together peacefully only for the sake of the Onmyoji of the Sakura Empire.

“…You don’t have to do anything.”

Lisa Veneto thought for a while and made this decision.

She had a fairly good understanding of Sakura Empire's "absolute limit", and the spiritual world that the other party inherited, its original builder had a close connection with the Holy See.

Lisa Veneto didn't believe that she hadn't noticed anything abnormal about Tohka Takamiya before.

In other words...

282 Bet

——The scene happening at this moment was most likely caused by Juebi himself!

As for the purpose of deliberately exposing Tohka Soumiya in front of everyone...

Almost at the same time when Lisa Veneto was thinking about this, Nura and Ma, who were sitting in the rest area of ​​the Sakura Empire not far away, stood up.

He usually had a bit of a ruffian look on his face, but at this moment his expression was extremely serious.

"Takamiya Tohka is a student at the Onmyoji Academy of the Sakura Empire and a legal citizen of the Sakura Empire. I can't let you harm her!"

"you!"

As soon as these words came out, Bishop Eva stood up involuntarily.

"Does the Sakura Psychic World want to go to war with my Seven Stars Church?!"

As she questioned, members of the Vatican, both participating students and accompanying priests, stood up one after another.

It seems that he is trying to force Nura and Ma to hand over Tohka Takamiya through this kind of pressure.

If it were some useless high-ranking officials in the Onmyoji Bureau who were just sitting there doing nothing, they might really back down in the face of pressure from the Vatican.

After all, he was just a student from a humble background with no power or influence, so he could just be sent away.

But Nura and Ma...

A person who was able to go from being an ordinary Onmyoji with not much talent to defeating all competitors of the same period and finally ascending to the throne of the Ten Spirit Kings.

How could he be a weak-willed, cowardly person who would only give in?

Immediately, the aura around him surged: "If you want to fight, then fight!"

He pulled a wicked smile at the corner of his mouth, and added: "You seem to have forgotten that this is Sakura Empire!"

"!!!"

After hearing this, the originally excited Bishop Eva and the other contestants froze in place as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over them.

If a fight really breaks out regardless of the consequences, the life and death of himself and others may not be important.

But Her Highness Aisha... is likely to be attacked by several pseudo-Pure-rank members of the Onmyoji Bureau, resulting in her early death.

Such a future is something that the Seven Lights Church cannot bear.

But if they retreat at this point... the Vatican will be humiliated.

The venue suddenly became extremely silent, and Bishop Lisa and Nura Kazuma just kept increasing their momentum.

It was as if he would not care about anything and just take action in the next moment.

Just when the two sides were in a stalemate and couldn't find a way out.

A sneer suddenly rang in everyone's ears.

"Nura, Eva, you two are really funny."

Marshal Max, who was in the White Eagle rest area, stood up and pointed at Tohka Somiya, who had not yet woken up but the purple-haired angel had been reintegrated into her body.

"Since both Sakura Empire and the Church want that girl, how about we just use the next group battle to decide the winner?"

"The winner gets the ownership of the girl, and the loser automatically withdraws."

"My students are not items to be bought and sold." Nura and Ma looked angry.

Marshal Max shrugged and said, "But if this goes on, you can't protect her, right?"

"..."

This is the truth.

From the moment she was discovered to have the qualities of a saint, Tohka Somiya's fate was no longer in her own hands.

The only difference is that one will have the angel in the body extracted by the Church and be imprisoned in a dungeon for life, or one will stay in Sakura Empire and receive the so-called "protection" of the Onmyoji Ryo.

"I agreed!"

While Nura and Ma were still hesitating, Bishop Eva was the first to agree.

This year's Sakura Empire is indeed very strong. It has two of the Four Holy Priestess, and the little princess of the Tsuchimikado family has also become the main force of the school team.

But this does not mean that the Holy See is weak.

On the contrary, with the support of the Saint Aisha Edes, each member of the school team will be able to at least unleash the combat power of the first echelon of the Ming class in the upcoming team battle.

A Gold Star Warrior like Freya has a high probability of defeating a Pure Class Onmyoji!

After the voice fell, Bishop Eva looked at Nura and Ma in the rest area of ​​​​the Sakura Empire, with a hint of provocation in her tone: "Why, are you afraid of failure?"
