Chapter 268
“Do you know where the Somora Grand Temple is?”
“Yes, of course.”
Demian, who had taken the bait, nodded vigorously.
“It’s on Godom Island.”
“Godom Island?”
“It’s a very small remote island about 30 minutes away from Eldiva Island, and the Grand Temple is built there.”
“What?”
What does that mean? Dana furrowed her brow sharply.
“I heard that the Somora Grand Temple was on Eldiva?”
“While it’s physically separated, legally Godom Island is included in Eldiva Island’s territory.”
So it’s a different island after all. Does that mean she has to take another ship?
“Could I possibly enter the Somora Grand Temple?”
“That would be quite difficult.”
“Why?”
“Godom Island is a restricted access zone that cannot be entered without the Somora High Priest’s permission.”
“Restricted access zone? What does that mean?”
“Literally, those without permission cannot approach. Ancient Priests have cast sea storm spells that protect Godom Island.”
Sea storms?
Storms that blow on the sea?
When she frowned in disbelief, Demian smiled gently.
“Even if you’re lucky enough to break through the terrifying sea storms, you’d meet the Somora Grand Temple’s fleet and be attacked to death. They call it the temple’s fleet, but they were once called pirates in the past.”
“There are still pirates? I heard Lumiere wiped them all out.”
“He couldn’t eliminate Godom Island. The sea storms were so severe that all of Lumiere’s classmates except two died back then.”
“…”
“So they gave up on Godom Island and retreated.”
I see…
Dana’s heart ached. She thought she could understand Lumiere’s feelings about not wanting to send her to Eldiva Island.
“Isn’t there a way for me to enter the Somora Grand Temple?”
The moment she asked, Dana came up with an answer.
“It’s the spring water ritual period now. They’re making a fuss about offering a priestess to the Somora Grand Temple’s spring water.”
“Spring water ritual…”
If I become that priestess, I could easily enter the Somora Grand Temple, right?
However, the moment he heard those words, Demian’s face hardened.
“Are you thinking of becoming the priestess for the spring water ritual?”
“Yes.”
“Of course, if you do that, you could enter the Somora Grand Temple. But you can’t.”
“What?”
“I said you can’t. You’d have to pray in the spring water practically naked, and you can’t do such vulgar things.”
Demian spoke in a very serious voice.
“That’s not all. According to rumors, very cruel secret gatherings are held periodically on Godom Island.”
“…”
“They say the continent’s power holders join hands with Somora fanatics and enjoy very cruel games.”
He recited the ghost stories circulating in society with a very frightening face.
“They kidnap nobles who come here for vacation to Godom Island, play with them as human toys to their heart’s content, then offer them as live sacrifices to the Somora god. No one can know what happens on Godom Island, right?”
“So?”
“Seeing that missing persons of noble status occur every year on Eldiva Island, it might not be just rumors. So don’t go.”
“Don’t go?”
“Yes. I cannot allow it. Absolutely not. For your safety…”
Slap! Dana struck his cheek.
“Say that again.”
She struck him once more. Slap!
“Ah.”
“Can’t? You said I can’t?”
Slap, slap, slap!
“Who are you, who are you to control my actions? Who are you to give or withhold permission!”
“I, I am, ah, just, hah, for your sake.”
“Taking that risk is also my decision. You can’t decide my life for me! Who are you!”
Dana lost her reason and beat him. She struck the cheeks of him kneeling, kicked his shoulders, and pulled his hair.
Demian, who had been accepting it helplessly, collapsed on the floor gasping for breath. He wriggled like a worm, burying his nose on top of her foot. His waist was twitching and convulsing.
“I was wrong. I was wrong…”
Had his lips lost strength? She could feel his saliva dripping onto her foot. His breath scattering from his mouth felt very humid and unpleasant.
Dana angrily pulled her foot away and firmly stepped on his back.
“Try telling me what to do one more time.”
“Never again, I’ll never do it again, honey…”
“I told you not to call me honey, didn’t I? Do you find my words that amusing?”
“No. I was wrong.”
Demian lifted his disheveled face. He rubbed his hands together and begged desperately.
“Just once, please forgive me just once.”
Even seeing his face that had fallen to rock bottom as a human, soaked with tears and saliva, her heart didn’t soften at all.
This bastard doesn’t deserve even this treatment. I should strip him naked, hang him upside down, and beat him with clubs.
But now isn’t the time to get angry like this.
‘Let’s go to Anton first.’
Go to Anton Roland and say I want to volunteer as the priestess for the spring water ritual.
Of course, thinking about having to enter that cold spring water and shiver already annoyed her.
‘If I can’t find the holy relic, this body will die soon.’
Isn’t that better than losing all memories and being reset? Dana glanced down at Demian.
A worm-like human.
Even in that state, when their eyes meet, he gets aroused again.
However, Dana didn’t want to forget that man even if it meant dying.
Forgetting would be the same as forgiving, wouldn’t it?

Late that night.
“So.”
The man calmly signed documents while listening to the report. To the figure standing in the dark shadows across from him.
“How did it go?”
“It was successful.”
“You mean you succeeded in luring Danae to Godom Island?”
“That’s correct.”
“Excellent!”
The man praised as if genuinely pleased.
Then his nephew, Adma Roland, bowed his waist deeply.
Of course, inside that body would be a different human, not his nephew.
“Please convey that message to Rodrigo.”
Anton Roland smiled with satisfaction. Who would have thought things would go this smoothly?
It was indeed wise to follow Rodrigo’s advice.
“Good, I’ll prepare properly on my end, so make sure you lure her in without any problems. Don’t let Danae notice anything suspicious.”
“I’ll do that.”
Click.
After Adma closed the door and left, Anton finally let out his laughter freely.
“Hehehe… Hahahaha!”
Danae Roland.
He had lured that girl into becoming the priestess for the spring water ritual at Somora Temple.
Without knowing how dangerous that place was.
‘If she knew, she would never volunteer for the spring water ritual.’
Everything had gone exactly as Anton Roland had hoped.
Even calling Dana to this place, Eldiva Island, everything.
To lure Dana here, he had set a trap following Rodrigo’s advice, and she had truly fallen for it completely.
‘It’s all your fault that I’m trying to take Danae, Viego Windsor.’
He wasn’t the one who betrayed first.
The Diana Church was first.
Viego Windsor was the first to betray the Roland Family.
