Mana: Before The Rise

Chapter 69

The villagers no questioned her actions and had completely gone into the Faith.

"Your Holiness, The soldiers of the Ottava Kingdom are approaching." Said a Faith follower.

"So they are" Claris said her eyes flowing with excitement before saying "Allow them to rejoice and accept them into the Faith."

Commander of the West unit Ringean Peutan, was sent here to investigate. What had happened to Copper Town, that suddenly changed suspiciously as well as investigate the New Faith that is being spread here.

Around a Few days ago followers of this new and strange Faith started to travel around towns including the capital to spread their Faith. Much to the dislike to their Mono Religion.

By his side was High Priest, Colum Cille. Who was sent by the Church to investigate as well. They where a threat since they where growing so big in just a matter of a few days.

Once they entered the village, both Colum, Ringean and his few of his soldiers who didn't set up tents on the outside of the village where introduced to a beautiful town, the building, the roads and the otherworldly architecture, it even had a road. The Men wore short tunics and pants while the women wore longer versions of those tunics and pants. The children where also dressed similarly.

But, the most shocking thing was that they where genuinely happy, their faces bright and checks where plump. Everyone here was well feed, they where also well clothed.

They saw a young man pull something from a tree that had Pink leaves and hand it to a younger girl who was carrying a basket of what looked like fruit.

Straight ahead they saw the road curve around a platform that lead to a large regal building, that looked similar to a temple but wasn't a palace either. In front of that platform water shoot out from the form the ground and children were playing in it.

"What on blasphemy is this!" Colum couldn't help but yell out, he was horrified. Priest of the Mono Faith look down on any other religion in the world and often use force to covert followers of said Faith into there. They are an arrogant religion and only look after themselves, when Copper town stopped producing funds they abandoned it.

Kayle and Lalya stepped out they moment the man screamed. The residence all stared at the strangers with blank expression including the children. Ringean and his men started to get a bad feeling at the observing stares.

The residence suddenly started to scatter and go inside the building.

"You there" Colum said arrogantly "I demand you bring me to your priest, You blasphemous acts and wors.h.i.+p of the devil….How dare you lead these


Ringean tried to observe these two beautiful women dressed in white, she felt that they were very dangourus. But, thought he was being stupid how could mere women be dangourus.

Colum was in his mind was thinking very l.u.s.tfully, the women before him where beautiful and he wanted to have his way with them. He had already planned to use force on them, these soldiers here are supposed to protect him.

Kayle gave a disgusted look as she turned away and walked inside the building, Lalya had a slight smile on her face.

"If you wish to talk to the Arch Priestess, she is inside straight ahead." Lalya smiled as she two turned away and walked inside.

Colum didn't even flinch as he confidently walked into the building and straight ahead, he saw a woman in white straight ahead in front of a statue, he began to drool at her beauty. The women he saw before couldn't even compare to her.

Claris turned around to see the Fat Priest's l.u.s.t filled eyes, she could immediately tell what he was thinking.

Colum looked at the veiled women in white and had a thought he couldn't wait to rip it all as he had her below. Ringean wasn't to far he glances at the women from earlier who were standing by the pillars watching there every move.

"My goodness, a Priest of the Mono Religion. What Cla.s.s you have for staring at me with Eyes of l.u.s.t" Claris giggled as the fat Priest went red.

"You…"

"Be careful what you say, you are before the house of Our G.o.ddess and her land"

"Devil Wors.h.i.+pper, she is no G.o.d." He Said.

"Oh! You mean to say that you G.o.d is better them her, You G.o.d who only helps for profit."

"You wench how dare you belittle out Lord. The people are happy to make donations to the church."

"Priest, I belittle because as Omnipotent as he is. He still lost his followers because he is as worthless as you are." She said looking straight ahead to the outside as one of her followers walked in.

"Your Holiness" Said the young man as he respectfully bowed.

Ringean widen his eyes as the young men was wearing the armor of his troops, he suddenly got a bad feeling.

"The soldiers on the outside have agreed to convert and bask in the goriness of the G.o.ddess."

The Priest, Ringean and his small group of soldiers went pale all except for the one who backed away and joined his fellow follower.

"My Comrades, I ask of you to please join us and receive the blessing of the G.o.ddess."

"You-" Priest started to say but was cut off by Atlas who had stabbed him fatally with her sword. Ringean was even more shocked he didn't even see where this woman had come from.

"Commander, Our Comrades, Please you'll make things easier by becoming followers of the new Faith" said the two converted Soldiers. Ringean was scared outta his pants and most of his remaining soldiers beside him where also scared. When he looked back, he saw that the body of the Priest was gone along with his blood, the women who killed him was back by the side of the Arch Priestess.

He calmed down when he realized he was just dealing with women and two traitors. There was no proof that those outside had gone astray.

"Gone Astray? I'm afraid your wrong about that"

Ringean looked at Claris who seemed to have read his mind. Her easy smile made him feel worse.

"Please bring out some of our new followers up, I believe Commander Ringean need some convincing."

"As you wish, your Holiness" The two bowed again and walked out only to come back in with a larger group of men in plated armor."

Ringean wasn't already uneasy and scared this seen just made him want to faint.

"Commander Ringean, all is simple please convert, but, if you truly do not wish to then please leave. We will not stop you."

"..." Ringean stared blankly on his horse in terror as he looked back at the town of Endeara, his remaining soldier had converted out of fear. But he was let go given a horse and escorted out of the town. They didn't even try to kill, as a commander with over ten years of experience he didn't know what to make of this situation. But, all he knew was that he had to report what he saw.

He road off into the distance, what he didn't know as that this decision was but one step that would spell the downfall of the Ottava Kingdom.
