Huh? Are they all real?...

The goddess, completely shrouded in black veils, calmly looked at the crowd and said:

"I think everything here is pretty much as I guessed, right?"

For some reason, the three sisters instinctively made way for the last sacred tree to arrive.

So that the sacred tree could take over the dominant position in this small circle.

After looking around at everyone, the Sacred Tree first looked at the Sacred Lance and said:

“You caused quite a stir on your way here, my sister. I know you’re worried about him, but your recklessness might alert someone else who might have ulterior motives.”

At this moment, from the perspective of the Holy Tree, even the Goddess of the Holy Lance subconsciously lowered her head slightly.

"I...it was my fault."

Surprisingly, Holy Lance apologized.

But no one thought it was wrong; it seemed to be the way it should be.

The sacred tree also smiled slightly and said:

"It's nothing, I don't think it's a big deal. It's just a small piece of advice."

Then the sacred tree looked at the three sisters standing on its other side.

As the gaze from the sacred tree descended upon him through the veil of shadows.

The three sisters, especially the youngest sister who was holding the holy sword, all took a small step back.

"I know you must be worried too, because you've been away from him the longest, but don't worry, we feel the same way you do. Okay?"

"You're right."

Like the Holy Lance, the guardians of the Holy Sword bowed their heads and apologized.

This reaction made the sacred tree clap its hands in delight:

"That's more like it, that's more appropriate. We shouldn't be so tense and confrontational at a time like this."

Amidst the gentle applause of the sacred tree, she walked toward her goal.

Dark Moon and the witch, who had been standing in front of Ansa, all moved aside without realizing that the Holy Tree was walking straight towards them.

It was as if everything should give way to it.

At the same time, they also voluntarily moved to the edge of the room.

So that the entire stage could be handed over to the sacred tree.

The sacred tree reached out and lifted Ansa's chin, gently yet irresistibly pinching her chin and turning her beautiful face from side to side to examine it.

"So tell me, how exactly did the last little girl disappear? Or rather, what did you send her to do in the end?"

“I, him, the teacher said he was going to a foreign land to do something important.”

"Then things become very simple, don't they? Just go to a foreign land. Go ask the people from the People's Federation."

Seemingly satisfied, the Sacred Tree released Ansa, whose chin it had been holding.

He then smiled and looked at the other goddesses.

"So, does anyone else have any questions?"

The girls looked at each other and then all shook their heads to indicate no.

"Very well, immediately send someone to inquire with the highest-ranking officials in this foreign land. Until then, all of you must remain restrained and calm, otherwise you don't want to complicate a simple matter by making a mess of things, do you?"

"I might let this kind of stupid thing happen under normal circumstances, but I don't think anyone wants it to happen at a time like this, right?"

The girls continued to respond with silence.

At that moment, as if cursed, the door was pushed open again.

No, this time it should be said that he was pushed away by a dog.

This drew the attention of all the goddesses in the room to Bella the Golden Retriever.

Seeing that Bella had re-entered, the witch couldn't help but exclaim:

"Wait, why is a dog here too?"

Upon hearing this voice, Bella was first stunned, then frantically shook her head, saying:

"No, no, no, I'm fine, it doesn't concern me, I'm really just a dog!"

Just kidding, why would it, an outsider, jump into such a huge chaotic situation?

Golden Retrievers aren't stupid!

Golden Retrievers are very smart!

"So Bella, what brings you here?"

The sacred tree raised its hand to stop the girls' noise, then squatted down in front of Bella, looking at her with a playful expression that Bella couldn't quite understand.

"Ah, I... I received some news from the People's Federation."

"Oh, what kind of news? If it has nothing to do with him, then please tell us later."

It was only at this moment that Bella noticed that the atmosphere on the scene seemed to be different from what she had expected.

It was a bit dull, but there was none of the antagonism and tension I had anticipated.

It seems the whole venue was...

Bella's gaze returned to the sacred tree in front of her.

It seems she's overshadowed by all the goddesses?

Is the sacred tree really that powerful?

I know that the Sacred Tree, one of the four sacred relics, is supposed to be the most special of the sacred relics, but isn't this too outrageous?

"What's wrong, Bella? Why aren't you saying anything?"

The smile of the sacred tree emanated from beneath the curtain, a curtain that had once been the prison she willingly entered, but now also prevented outsiders from ever truly seeing her face.

It was only vaguely visible through the curtains.

"No, I... I was just wondering why Her Majesty Rose Lawrence didn't come?"

Bella's problem caught the girls' attention.

Yes, the reason why the Eternal King is the Eternal King is common knowledge, even if no one says it.

So why is the Shadow Sun missing in this situation?

The witch pondered for a moment and said:

"Did she not come last time in the Old World either?"

Yes, the last time the witch created the Four Kings Coffin Dance, Rose Lorian was missing.

However, the sacred tree stood up and said indifferently:

“Last time, I came alone because she didn’t want to see you.”

"This time, however, it is of great importance. She needs to stay in the Sacred Tree Forest to maintain stability within the elves. After all, the elves are the only force in our hands that is completely undamaged."

"Do you think so?"

It seemed to carry a certain ironic mockery, yet strangely, it didn't arouse any anger in the girls.

Instead, they all looked away, not daring to meet his gaze.

As the sacred tree said, of all that he and they had built together, only the elves remain intact.

The others, whether it's the vampires, the Church of Storms, Baratheon, or Rome, don't seem quite right.

As for the three sisters, although the youngest sister's inheritance was not much, they did indeed only keep the Holy Sword.

Having regained control of the situation, the sacred tree once again looked down at Bella.

This time, however, Bella acted like a golden retriever who had made a mistake, lowering her head and whimpering a few times under that unreadable gaze.

“It’s alright, Bella. Tell me, what did you learn from that foreign land?”

Bella lowered her head and said:

"Um, that's right. His Majesty Trajan went to a foreign land to help the puppets ascend to godhood."

A doll in a foreign land?

This is news that would normally surprise everyone.

But now, it is just an insignificant little flower in the midst of a thousand towering waves.

In fact, if it weren't for Moen being involved, the girls probably wouldn't even have bothered to ask about it.

However, they remained silent, waiting for the sacred tree to continue its questioning:

"I see. So, what else does Bella have?"

Knowing that the main event was about to begin, Bella quickly perked up and said:

"That's where the problem lies. His Majesty Trajan's cooperation with the puppets was mutually beneficial, but a huge accident occurred."

"Do you all remember? The White Calamity that His Majesty Trajan has been investigating? That's right, Your Majesty Ansa, you even asked me if I had any relevant information!"

Ansa nodded and said:

"Yes, I asked you, and the teacher is indeed investigating this. So what happened? Is it related to this?"

Ansa responded.

Bella almost jumped up and said:

"This is it! This is it! The puppet has manipulated the power of time so that His Majesty Trajan can help complete the ascension ceremony. At the same time, His Majesty Trajan will also travel to the past to see for himself what the white calamity that is troubling him is."

"And then he just disappeared?"

Dark Moon interrupted.

Bella nodded quickly and said:

"Yes, His Majesty Trajan disappeared because of this. However, it's alright, because the ceremony was conducted by a puppet, we did find some clues, no."

"There are many clues. Although those people were very discreet, they couldn't escape the puppet's eyes!"

Bella said with feigned seriousness:

"Do your Majesties still remember the matter of the stranger being summoned?"

This thing, which I've always remembered but subconsciously felt wasn't very important, was brought up again.

The girls' pupils all contracted.

"Yes, that's it, the one who summoned the stranger but never surfaced to make a move!"

"As you all probably guessed, that being created the Stranger incident in order to find His Majesty Trajan!"

"And now, that despicable fellow has finally shown his true colors. It was he who brazenly kidnapped His Majesty Trajan!"

In a room filled with goddesses, a golden retriever is baring its teeth and putting on a great show.

"Furthermore, we have more evidence."

"Selene, Abyss, do you remember that before your king, Trajan, returned, there was a mysterious organization that possessed the One Ring?"

You mean them?

"Yes, they are the minions of that mysterious being!"

"Unfortunately, we had ample evidence to prove that this was their problem, but unfortunately, that mysterious entity was too powerful and erased the actual evidence we had."

"So much so that I had to rush over here and tell you all this important news without any explanation."

At this point, Bella was practically on the verge of crying out in despair:

"You must believe me, I'm just a dog with no bad intentions!"

Bella's energetic performance.

The atmosphere in this small room is gradually becoming dangerous.
