Chapter 161: Myth Of Radiant Sun God (Part-1)

Listening to Maya's introduction, Saintess also came forward to introduce herself as she held the staff in her right hand and genuflected before Maya.

"Nice to meet you. I am Maya vermilion, Pope of Radiant Sun God religion and former ruler of Radiant Empire"

Hearing that Maya nodded and looked at Saintess with curiosity.

She had been very curious since the time she had found out from Julis and Sara that there was another person with the same name as well as looked the same as her.

After returning from the southern part of Buraford Kingdom. She came to find out from Ellie, that Saintess Maya is currently staying in the capital city while hiding her identity.

Due to her own special circumstances and safety.

For Maya it's hard for her to think about the situation of Saintess from her perspective. Why will someone with so much influence and strength will try to hide herself? She also has the imperial family of the Radiant Empire to back her. It's really a hard question to answer. Even if that organization called Golden star cross has some influence and wants to control the continent, various forces of the continent from the dark.

'Right, didn't Kai also mention the golden star cross in his letter? Brother Jai also had to leave in a hurry to just deliver that thing called god origin. So, it's seems like we are also going to get involved with the matter of golden star cross and those powers who are part of it'

At this point of time, Maya is still not aware that Kai has already taken care of the main members of Golden star cross.

Saintess was also observing Maya with keen interest and wanted to know, why did she call her?

"Miss Saintess I have wanted to meet you for a long time and wanted to talk with you face to face"

"Is there anything Miss Maya wants to ask?"asked Saintess in a polite manner.

'This is  quite awkward. I never would have thought that in my life I have to call someone by the same name as me and have the same physical appearance. It's almost like I am talking in front of a mirror. But I  knows that she is a living beings and completely different from me'

"Saintess you don't have to be so formal and polite and You don't have to add a miss in front of my name. You can just call me Maya while I will call you Miss vermilion instead of calling you Saintess"said Maya with a bright gentle smile.

As she looked at the smile of Maya. Her awakening was stripped away to a large extent.

'We look similar but from inside completely different from each other, when was the last time I had smiled so brightly and wholeheartedly?'

Remember her childhood days, when she used to smile brightly like her.

Saintess Sighed

Everything changed on the day of the potential test. When it was found that I had been born with a heavenly Celestial body. A type of body which increases the speed of cultivation and enhances the quality of magic power beyond grade 10. Suddenly I was the center of everyone's attention and expectations. I was raised as the successor of Josif from the early stages of my life and in the process due to many circumstances I eventually became the pope of the Radiant Sun God Church. While Josif also had me take care of the Empire from an early age. So from an early stage I have to balance my time in taking care of both my duty as a pope as well as the Empress. Making sure they never conflict with each other and dedicating my life to help others and improve their life. Maybe that is the only thing which made me feel happy, seeing the bright smile on the faces of others.

Both of these roles kept me busy and didn't have time to interact with many people of lower rank.

Maybe that's also why Grafield was able to take advantage of opportunities and penetrate so much inside the Church. Rising in rank from an ordinary priest to the position of the most influential among the ten archbishop additional to that he had the Golden star cross organization backing him. If he had captured me back then maybe Church would have fallen into the hands of golden star cross by now'

"Miss vermillion, Miss vermilion can you hear me? Please reply"

Hearing Maya words Saintess came back to her senses.

"Hm....

"Sorry about that Maya. I just had my mind focused on something else. So what were we talking about?"

Hearing that Maya looked at the absent minded Saintess. She could see the worry and loneliness in her eyes.

'She must have faced many sad things in her life?'

"Miss vermilion like I was saying that our king is also currently involved and the golden star cross is also our enemy. So, you can trust us on this topic. We will help you take care of those cowards who only know to hide in the dark and don't dare to appear in light"

Hearing that Saintess nodded and felt delighted.

"So, the current king of Buraford Kingdom is also the enemy of the Golden star cross organization. But how did your king find about them"

Maya Shook her head on Saintess questions.

"I don't know. His majesty had sent a letter two days ago mentioning about them as you may know. Brother Jai also took Duke Grawn with him so that he can help him reach their destination to deliver a certain item with him"

Suddenly Maya's expression turned cheerful.

"Right, Do you know that the seal of the continent has been undone. Most likely our king was also involved in it. Finally we can restart our cultivation and reach higher levels"

"Seal? Are you talking about the seal of the continent mentioned by that person called Dai Yusa?"

Maya nodded in reply"Yes, Though I don't know this Dai Yusa guy. But most likely he is someone related to our king. Have you not seen those golden and silver chains? Those chains are manifestation of world law and magic laws"

Hearing that Saintess was astonished"So, that voice really was telling the truth that in future more powerhouses of the saint stage will appear and what do you mean by reaching higher levels? Isn't the saint stage the highest?"

Hearing that Maya explained about the division of cultivation stages above magic champions.

The more Saintess learned about the stages, the more she was shocked and eventually became speechless. Now she knew why Dai Yusa told her that Radiant sun god is a false god. There are powerhouses of the Divine stage with God-like power and ability. Surprisingly the current king of Buraford Kingdom master was also one of those divine stage experts, A magic Emperor. A person from the world outside of their continent.

Thinking about it Saintess cannot help but look at her staff and remember the ancient myth of Radiant Sun God.

That it didn't originate in the continent and the founder just happened to be from the outside world.

'Is it possible that Radiant sun god was just a Divine stage expert?"

Maya also noticed the change in expression of Saintess who was looking at the staff. She is holding in her right hand.

Maya had not asked why she was holding a staff in her hand. As she was not interested but now that she is seeing that Saintess is observing the staff carefully. She cannot help but ask about the staff.

"Miss vermilion, why are you looking at the staff in your hand so carefully?"

Saintess lowered her head and shook her head"I was just distracted by what you had said about those divine stage experts. I was just thinking may be Radiant Sun God I had been worshiping for so many years. Can just be a divine stage expert from the world outside of the continent. It's hard to believe that the being I have been praying for so many years can just be a magic users with higher cultivation"

"But I can relate those divine stage experts perfectly with Radiant Sun God. Even though I have not seen those experts in person and want to deny it. I can't turn my face away from the truth. May be after the barrier is undone I can find the truth behind the being we pray to and call radiant sun god"

Maya also looked at the staff in Saintess' hand.

The Radiant Sun God Staff was 6 feet long golden in color, with a big transparent orb on top of it with a bright core inside that gave off a holy aura in the shape of a sun. The staff design was simple, with a red handle, above it was the statue of the Radian Sun God that held the transparent orb.

The staff doesn't have any extraordinary design or aura

Maya put her finger on her cheek and asked

"Miss vermilion, this staff? Is this staff somehow related to Radiant Sun God?"

Without any hesitation Saintess nodded in response.

"This staff is the symbol of authority and power in the Radiant sun god religion. According to the legends Radiant Sun God personally gave this Radiant Sun staff to the first founder and since then it has continued to be passed on from generation to generation till it reached my hand. This staff plays a major role in the myths of Radiant Sun God and how Sir founder whose name has long been forgotten used it's legendary power to create miracle after miracle. Saving numerous life's in his lifetime"

"Myth? What is this myth about? Can you tell me?"

Seeing the curious expression on Maya's face, Saintess nodded.
