Chapter 262
* * *
Today’s sun had risen.
Dana had never been so glad to see the sun. She had regained a mind as clear as those intense rays.
‘I’m definitely sane during the day!’
Justio’s holy magic was amazing. During the hours of sunlight, she could maintain such a clear and clean mind.
“I’m so relieved. You don’t know how worried I’ve been all this time.”
In the early morning, she had breakfast with Lumiere and his wife.
“The personal physician says there’s nothing wrong with your health now, but if you feel sick anywhere, you must tell us. Understood?”
“Yes. Thank you for worrying about me.”
Lumiere’s wife, Ingria Rolland, was very happy and welcoming about her recovery.
“Lumiere was really worried too. Right, Lumiere?”
“Yes.”
Well, I don’t think so.
He won’t even look at me.
Dana suppressed a sigh. Lumiere, sitting at the opposite side of the table, was enduring his contempt and disgust toward her with all his might.
Of course, outwardly he was acting like an affectionate brother.
‘I know all of Lumiere’s expressions.’
That’s why she noticed.
That Lumiere Roland had begun to genuinely despise Danaina Rolland.
‘Well, after what happened yesterday.’
Last night, the mad Dana had tried to kiss Lumiere.
Lumiere thought she was his younger sister. And right after waking up from a coma after three months, that’s what she tried to do.
Come to think of it, she had confessed her feelings to so many different men – Noah, Karl. Even while having a separate fiancé named Viego.
Lumiere probably saw her as a woman who had reached the extreme of promiscuity.
“By the way, where are Mother and Maternal Grandfather?”
Dana quickly changed the subject. Now that she thought about it, Anton Roland and Sandra Rolland were nowhere to be seen.
Lumiere lifted his water glass and answered.
“They went to meet a relative.”
“A relative?”
“There’s an uncle named Adma Rolland, and we received a telegram saying he’s very ill.”
Adma Rolland?
It was a name she’d heard somewhere. Could it be.
“Did they go to Eldiva Island by any chance?”
“Yes.”
“…I see.”
“…”
A gentle voice. A faint smile on his lips.
And eyes that never met hers. He didn’t even provide the additional explanation that should naturally follow.
It was difficult to continue the conversation. Lumiere was refusing to converse with her.
In the end, Lumiere didn’t give her a single glance until the meal was over.
‘This is serious.’
Because I need to go there too.
Eldiva Island.
To that place where the holy relic is.
* * *
Holy relics.
It was truly tiresome, but once again she was back to square one. Her answer had always been in the holy relics.
‘At least I have more options than before.’
Previously, only Karl Windsor’s holy relic was the answer, but not now.
Both Danawin Windsor and Danae Grants.
Each knew the location of different holy relics.
During her time as Princess Danae Grants, Lyos had told her about holy relics.
To be precise – in Lyos’s bedroom.
He had brought the Emperor’s crown and placed it on her head.
He hadn’t forgotten her words about wanting to try it on.
“How is it? Do I look like an emperor too?”
When she looked down at Lyos while wearing the imperial crown, he looked up at her with an ecstatic expression.
“What are you doing, Lyos? Hurry up and call me Your Majesty.”
“No. Even that is not enough.”
“Huh?”
“Elder Sister is my god. My…”
No… let me put aside such memories…
Dana pressed her head firmly and concentrated. Let me just recall the conversation about holy relics.
“Rodrigo said this was a holy relic, is that true?”
Rodrigo had mentioned it in passing before. That a holy relic was embedded in the Emperor’s crown.
“That’s right. It’s a gem imbued with the Sun God’s power.”
“Really? I want to try it on!”
“Unfortunately, that’s impossible.”
“Why?”
“Because the First Emperor sealed the holy relic’s power so no one could use it.”
“Sealed? Why?”
Perhaps he was pleased that she showed interest in his words. Lyos explained enthusiastically.
“There was an oracle, they say.”
“What kind of oracle?”
“A prophecy came down that a traitor who betrayed the Sun God would misuse the holy relic. So after much deliberation, the First Emperor sealed the holy relic’s power.”
Finishing her recollection there, Dana cleanly gave up on the Imperial Palace’s holy relic.
After all, no one could use the crown’s holy relic.
Long ago, the First Emperor had sealed the holy relic.
Fortunately, there were several other holy relics remaining.
‘First, there’s the holy relic in the Sanctuary.’
This was something Danawin Windsor knew about.
She had overheard what Rodrigo was saying to Demian.
“I heard that a Windsor Ancestor possessed a Sacred Relic.”
Danawin pretended to nap while listening to the two men’s conversation.
“Which ancestor do you mean?”
“Edam Windsor, the First Religious Leader of the Diana Church.”
They weren’t wary of Danawin.
Because at that time, Danawin was their adorable pet. It was difficult to watch one’s words in front of a soundly sleeping pet.
“The Sacred Relic is buried in Edam Windsor’s tomb.”
Demian conversed with his father while stroking her hair as if petting a puppy’s fur.
“But why was the Sacred Relic buried together in the tomb? It would be incredibly useful if we dug up the tomb and retrieved it.”
At that time, Danawin was in a state where she couldn’t think or judge.
However, she knew that this was no ordinary conversation, so she listened very carefully.
“According to the records, if the Sacred Relic is touched, the Sealing Stone will also break.”
Sealing Stone.
That thing that turned living humans into statues served to strengthen the demon’s seal.
At the Frozen Lake too, a Windsor Ancestor stood as a Sealing Stone.
“If the Sealing Stone breaks—”
“The demon’s seal could also weaken. That’s why it was buried together in the First Religious Leader’s tomb so no one could touch the Sacred Relic.”
“Then couldn’t we make someone new into a Sealing Stone and free our ancestor? We could use the Sacred Relic after that.”
“That’s why we tried to replace that bastard Karl as the next Sealing Stone, but it failed.”
“Then we could bring someone else…”
“The Sealing Stone has no effect unless it’s someone from the Windsor Bloodline.”
“Then if Father made the big decision to sacrifice…”
“I still have many things to do. How about you becoming the next Sealing Stone instead, Demian?”
It was laughable.
That bastard.
Over 200 years ago. That man who summoned her to This World. The man who looked remarkably identical to Viego Windsor.
That bastard’s name was Edam Windsor.
The Sacred Relic was buried in his tomb.
