555. A Bad News and a Good News (4K6)

In fact, Tricia had completely believed Aisha's previous speculations since she first saw Inksa.

She felt the power of God's protection - it was a power completely different from magic, mysterious and elusive. Even Tricia's magical vision could not see this thing directly, but Tricia was extremely sure that Inksha was wrapped in a huge and rich power of protection that was so strong that it could not be dissolved, and this power did not belong to the goddess Sabrina.

Tricia was no stranger to this kind of power, so she was so sure.

The Hero and the Saint possessed this power. As a comrade who had fought alongside them for years, how could Tricia not be familiar with it? Moreover, Tricia herself had briefly entered that realm more than once, having grasped this power in her own hands. How could she not feel its presence?

Of course, Tricia couldn't confirm whether Elsa also had this thing. There was no way. Anything directly related to Elsa would make all her means of perception ineffective.

So Tricia could only start with Inksa.

Because she already had the answer in her heart, Tricia was more anxious to confirm it with Inksa. At this point, what Tricia wanted was no longer just an answer.

If it is confirmed that the power of protection on Inksha comes from Aisha...

Tricia couldn't even imagine what that meant.

The more this happened, the more anxious Tricia became, but she had to remain calm on the surface.

She herself couldn't remember how long it had been since she had been tormented by this kind of anxiety - perhaps just like she hadn't looked up at the stars for a long time, it had also been too long since she had experienced the state of mind she had when she traveled around the world. Unfortunately, Elsa brought both of these to her.

Pope Wilmot did not stay in the Sky Island for long. His interest in the Sky Island was far less than his concern for Inksya. He took the initiative to guide the Sky Island to the anchorage, leaving time for Elsa and Tricia. Sophia and others also left on their own accord, leaving only Elsa, Tricia and Inksya in the huge city square.

However, at this time, Inksa still looked a little dazed, as if she had not woken up yet.

"Inksa, we also have some questions we want to understand about what happened to you. You were looking at me just now. Did you feel anything?"

Seeing that everyone had left, Aisha went straight to the point. She looked into Inksa's eyes, which made Inksa subconsciously look back at Aisha - after just a moment of looking at each other, Inksa felt that trance-like illusion again.

She shook her head quickly and took two unsteady steps back.

With Elsa so close, she felt she could no longer bear it.

"Sorry... Aisha, I didn't mean to hide from you... I just felt a little... weird..."

Inksha shook her head with difficulty and stumbled, almost falling to the ground. Elsa hurried forward to support her. However, with Elsa's support, Inksha felt as if she had been exposed to the scorching sun for seven days. Her legs softened and she collapsed directly in Elsa's arms. Her face gradually turned pale and her eyes seemed a little unfocused.

In just a moment, a drop of blood oozed from the tip of Inksa's nose.

"Elsa! Put her down!"

Tricia suddenly shouted, and Aisha realized something was wrong when she saw this. She quickly put Inksa down and took several steps back.

Tricia quickly walked forward, squatted down, and checked on Inksa's condition.

Her eyes were fixed on a certain spot on Inksa's body, as if she was thinking about something.

"What's up with her?"

"It's nothing, she's very healthy, it's just that the energy in her body is too full, causing her body to be unable to bear it."

Tricia sighed and looked at Elsa with a complicated expression. Although there was no direct evidence to prove the relationship between Inksas and Elsa, all the phenomena told Tricia that all this was caused by Elsa. Tricia had been paying attention to Inksas just now. As Elsa approached, the aura on Inksas body rose rapidly, visibly, and in an instant, the energy in Inksas body became so strong that she could not hold on. It is no exaggeration to say that if Elsa had been sticking closely to Inksas, then Inksas would probably need only a few breaths to accumulate a huge force comparable to the entire Temple of Poseidon.

Of course, the premise is that Inksa is not blown up by this force.

But in short, Tricia has completely believed the fact that the power of protection on Inksas comes from Elsa. Only Elsa, the person who bestows the protection, is here to make Inksas power so turbulent. For Inksas who is endowed with the power of protection, Elsa is like a sun. The closer she is to Elsa, the more amazing heat she absorbs.

Tricia looked at Aisha dimly and said, "You need to stay away from her."

"All right……"

Elsa was helpless, she clearly did nothing.

Tricia helped Inksha up and tapped her neck lightly. A soft halo of light seeped into Inksha's body. Tricia guided and drew out the excess energy and dissipated it into the air. Inksha's complexion visibly recovered a lot.

Inksa gradually woke up. The first thing she saw was Tricia with a concerned look in her eyes. The second thing she saw was Aisha standing far away with an innocent look on her face.

She was a little confused for a moment.

"W-What happened to me just now...?"

"Don't worry, it's just a minor problem. It's okay for now," Tricia said, getting straight to the point without beating around the bush. "Can you sense anything from Elsa?"

Inksa still didn't quite understand the situation, so she nodded subconsciously, then shook her head.

"I'm actually not sure... Ever since I saw Elsa, I've had this indescribable feeling... It's like someone is calling me, or like my soul is moving forward uncontrollably, but it also feels like something is pressing down on me..."

Inksha scratched her head embarrassedly. She thought for a moment, without hiding anything, and chose her words carefully:

"And what's strange is that just now I felt like I was back in the Temple of the Goddess. I had the illusion of standing in front of the statue... I, I'm not sure what happened, it was just like that..."

"Do you still have that feeling now?"

Inksa raised her head and looked at Elsa in the distance. The dizziness came over her again. She lasted only two seconds before she had to shake her head and lowered her head to avoid Elsa's gaze.

"besides……"

Inxa looked up at Tricia.

"I only act like this when I'm with Elsa... How strange..."

"Elsa, what about you? How do you feel?" Tricia asked Elsa.

"I didn't feel anything."

As Aisha spoke, she opened the panel and looked at it again and again, but did not find any place that could be operated. Inksa's name still lay there quietly as "Holy Envoy".

Tricia watched Elsa's movements and guessed that she was fiddling with the "panel" she couldn't see. Elsa saw the confusion in her eyes and shrugged. She didn't know how to respond. How could she understand why Inksha was staring at her? Elsa didn't know what attraction was.

Aisha coughed twice and decided to put the subject aside for the time being.

"Inksa, tell us about your recent experiences."

"Well...about a month ago, I suddenly lost all contact with the goddess. This situation has troubled me for a long time, and I still haven't found the reason...during this time..."

Inksa recounted in detail what had happened over the past month.

She didn't hide anything, no matter how big or small, she just poured out everything she thought was abnormal.

It wasn't until Inksha mentioned that her affinity for Holy Light Magic was weakening, while her physical strength was rapidly increasing day by day, that Tricia's expression suddenly became particularly strange. The more she listened, the more she felt something was wrong - what did it mean that Holy Light Magic was stagnant while her boxing skills were advancing by leaps and bounds?

She once again turned her gaze towards Elsa.

"So, Inksa, do you hear any different sounds every time you pray?"

Tricia asked tentatively.

Aisha can hear Inksha when she prays. Tricia believes that Aisha would not lie to her about such a thing. So is it possible that Inksha can also hear Aisha's voice?

"Different voices?"

Inksa subconsciously looked up at Aisha, then immediately lowered her head again.

She gradually discovered that she was not inexplicably attracted to Elsa, but she felt an indescribable pressure from Elsa, which made her always want to crawl down and kowtow to Elsa. Once she resisted this idea, she would become dizzy and her body seemed to become extremely weak, as if all the strength in her body had been uncontrollably stripped away.

This feeling is so strange.

"Like someone calling your name, or something like that."

Inksa thought about it carefully and shook her head.

"No."

Prayer is usually very quiet, and it is easy to tell whether there is any noise. Since Inksa said so, there should be no noise.

Tricia asked a lot of questions, all about details.

Inksad answered seriously.

Finally, Tricia and Aisha looked at each other, and they understood what she meant instantly, so Aisha nodded.

Tricia turned around and looked at Inksa: "Inksa, I have two pieces of news for you. One is good news for you, and the other is bad news."

Inksa was stunned for a moment.

"Is this about me?"

"Ah."

Inksa's eyes suddenly lit up.

As expected of the Arcane Sage and the omnipotent Elsa, the church has been investigating for more than a month without any results, yet the Sage and Elsa found a clue as soon as they met?

Inksha looked at Tricia eagerly: "Then...can you tell me the bad news first?"

"Aren't you afraid?"

Tricia asked, and Inkhsa was quite confident.

"If you can find a problem, it's not something to be afraid of. If you find one, overcome it and solve it. Maybe the process will be extremely difficult, but at least I have hope, so I won't be afraid!"

Tricia looked at Inksa's innocent face and suddenly laughed for no reason.

"You saints are really all from the same lineage."

Despite laughing, Tricia asked again:

"If you are no longer a saint from now on, what will you do?"

Inksha was silent for a moment.

"If I'm no longer a saint, at least I'm still myself, and there are still things I can do."

In fact, Inksa has been carrying this "if" in her heart for a long time. Ever since she could no longer hear the goddess's decree, she has been worried and anxious all the time. She is not afraid of losing her position as a saint. What she is afraid of is that because of her incompetence and weakness, she will fail to live up to everyone's expectations and disappoint countless people who regard her as hope.

Tricia didn't keep the secret any longer and spoke directly, "The bad news is, I can no longer sense any trace of the goddess's protection from you."

Inksha pursed her lips. In fact, she had already guessed the result in her heart when Tricia asked that question just now - or rather, she had expected this day to come more than a month ago.

Of course there are feelings of loss and sadness, but at the same time, there is also a sense of relief.

In addition, countless complex emotions surged from the bottom of my heart.

Inksa's eyes moistened.

But before the tears fell from her eyes, she heard, "The good news is that there is still a power protecting you. Your power has not diminished, and it is even stronger than before. I believe you have noticed it yourself - although the Holy Light magic has left you, you seem to have found another path that suits you."

Tricia was not talking nonsense. The aura she felt from Inksa now was much stronger than the last time she saw her. In particular, the closer Inksa got to Elsa, the more her aura grew like a volcanic eruption. Just now, it almost made Inksa faint. But in other words, if Elsa had always been here, then Inksa's strength growth rate would probably be even higher.

The only question now is, how did Elsa do it? Why was Elsa able to grant Inkhsa the power of protection? And, did something unexpected happen to the goddess?

This is what we should worry about.

Inkasha looked up at Tricia, her big eyes blinking.

What is the wise man saying?

Why didn't she understand?

"I'm sorry. I know this may be difficult for you to accept, but this is why we are here. I must confirm your situation first. As for Wilmot, I will tell him."

Tricia smiled helplessly.

In fact, when it was confirmed that these things were most likely a misunderstanding made by Elsa, Tricia was completely relieved.

After all, as long as nothing really happened to the goddess, this kind of misunderstanding would probably only make Wilmot happy - just imagine, an Elsa who could single-handedly beat up the Sea King Hayes who had absorbed the power of the Temple of the Sea God, and an Inksha who had lost the blessing of the Holy Light but gained the blessing of the "Iron Fist", not to mention the strength and potential of these two, as long as the position of the Saint is vacant and as long as the goddess is fine, the next Saint will come sooner or later.

The saint died in an accident before completing her mission. This kind of thing has happened in the long history of the Holy See. Generally speaking, as long as the disaster has not been eliminated and the saint's mission has not been completed, the goddess will soon choose the next saint. In short, the Holy See may usher in the "double saints" for the first time, which has never appeared in history.

Of course, the premise is that the goddess is fine.

"Let me tell you."

Aisha's voice came.

"Inksa," Inksa looked up at the voice and saw Aisha sitting far away, speaking to her. "Actually, I've been in a similar situation recently, but I'm different. Your prayers can't reach the goddess, and I can't receive her divine decree. But I often hear someone's prayers. They pop up in my mind from time to time, no matter where I am or what I'm doing."

Elsa pointed to her head.

Elsa's words actually brought some life back to Inksha's complicated expression. She couldn't help but find it funny - there were so many strange things in this world. She lost the person she prayed to, while Elsa inexplicably heard other people's prayers. In this way, she and Elsa were quite destined to meet.

However, Inksa met Aisha's gaze from afar, and the meaningful look in her eyes made her heart skip a beat for no reason.

She was stunned for a moment and swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Wait, could it be...

She raised her finger hesitantly and slowly pointed it towards herself.

"Could the person you're talking about be..."

"Yes, it's you."
