Without making much noise, I severed myself from the Church of Razellia, leaving the chaos of my actions to be dealt with by my trusted people. I am sure they will handle it well, though once my plans for the church are in motion, I will be extremely busy dealing with the promises that I made.
I gazed at the beautiful church that spread miles, decorated with beauty and grace. No doubt loads of money was pumped into building it. Several witches kept moving around, each doing their own business. This scene looked really calm and serene, completely different from the bad ending that would take place if ‘those’ situations came into play.
‘Sigh… I really am a scumbag…’
Using the spell to take control of their hearts isn’t something that I am very fond of, and I wasn’t in need of having the complete love of all these witches, cutting out their path only towards me. It would be better if I could give them the better future of true love they want, but then again, I know how that’s gonna end. Having seen that ending once in the game, I have no use in repeating it in reality.
After all, in real life, there are no second chances.
And I will be damned if I let all those bad futures come to this world, not when I am finally starting to find my place in it. Giving one more glance to the humongous church that spread far and wide, sparkling in white and gold, I moved away, heading towards the Church of Life.
This time I didn’t take direct transportation to the church as I walked through the streets of Babylon City. The main head churches are, after all, stationed here, and this is the very epicenter of the world where several powerful people, organizations, and ideas gather together.
As advertised, the entire city I was walking through was beautiful, technical, and advanced. I could see several different people moving along this city that is the size of a country floating sky-high above an endless ocean. The Babylon City itself is extremely huge, with several parts owned by several powerful people or organizations.
‘I should drop in and give a surprise to Eleanor.’
Placing my plans, I kept my pace moderate as I headed towards the church, which was at another edge of the city. Walking till it was impossible, so I took the teleportation system set up in place, my eyes gazing through the rowdy crowd that kept moving around, reminding me of those well-developed cities in my past life.
All the people gathered here are also above the norm, be it in power, status, or abilities. You have to be very outstanding to get a place in this city. Just the living expense is extremely high, though that is taken care of easily as getting a job here means that you are set for life.
Musing in my thoughts while enjoying my view, I soon reached a small line. The place was the transportation system, and I could see several such lines spread about. Even with hundreds moving about, no sense of discomfort or agitation formed in the crowd, everything moved at a brisk pace.
Soon, a few minutes later, I reached the front of the line and a blockage stood in front of me. Seeing so, I took out my card, one printed by the teleportation company, and marked my identity to use the teleportation system.
The system here is extremely advanced, as to begin using this system, you would first need to get registered by the company and gain a card. This card itself will have credits directly assigned to it, converted by the money you pay, and each time you travel, you flash the card, and the credits are used according to the distance and power used.
It is a powerful, organized movement only seen in the most developed areas. The scary thing was that the major controller of their movement was the elves, as they are the richest race in the world, with their banks and companies spread around. Even credit handling was done by the Elven banks.
‘Gotta give it to them…’ I thought to myself.
While praising them in my mind, I scanned my card, and the block was removed for me as I entered the magic circle. The blockade came back up as several locations I could move appeared in front of me. I selected the one that was directly connected to the church and disappeared, soon appearing in another blocked space.
“Hope you had a happy movement,” a calm voice was heard as the block opened up for me. I quickly moved out, my eyes soon being greeted by greenery and the distinct smell of nature and life filling my nose.
With the blessing that Orpheus gave me, I am more tuned towards nature and just entering this place, I was filled with a sense of peace and calm. I enjoyed the sensation for a moment before I got out of the teleportation area. My eyes soon came upon the beautiful church that seemed to blend in with nature. Its huge size did not lose to Razellia’s church.
But different from the splendor of riches and power, this one reflected a more humble and homely feeling. I felt as if I was back home.
“May your life be eventful…” Two priests that stood at the gate gave me a holy smile as they spoke. They looked amiable and kind, but the power level I felt off them showed that they weren’t just decorations on the gate. I gave them an amiable smile as I entered the church. I’m sure those two were set up here by Hera, the saintess of life, one that proclaimed herself as my elder sister.
I haven’t seen her since I met with her back when I was meeting Rlaph’s family. Though we did keep in contact with each other, with me talking to her on a regular basis. And as more time passed, she really started to see herself as a big sister to me.
I could see several people looking at me due to these priests giving me their blessing. As they were stationed like statues, never moving or responding but now they did to me, not minding the attention, I kept walking through the church where several plants and trees grew. The sounds of birds buzzing somehow seemed enjoyable.
I could see several animals moving around the church, all of them exuding a sense of happiness and life. They blended easily with the people in the church. Other than the priests and nuns, I could even see a good chunk of visitors, all of them having a peaceful look as they walked around.
Overall, this was a beautiful place to spend time, a place to get rid of all the stress in life. Gazing at all this, my steps didn’t stop as I kept moving, and each time I met a priest or a nun, they would suddenly stop in surprise and stare at me in confusion, clenching their heart as if it’s about to burst.
I paid no heed to all that as I, in my disguise looking like a normal teenager, just kept moving. All the animals, as if seemingly seeing their best friend, moved towards me. Birds perched upon my shoulder, and a beautiful white deer lovingly rubbed its head on my face as I patted it with a smile.
Soon a commotion was in place as animals and even powerful beasts surrounded me in my walk. They all looked like my guardians, and if anyone tried to reach me, their reaction wasn’t pleasant at all. It had become so bad that the protector beasts soon filled the skies. Everyone turned to look above as the fabled pegasus rides of the Life Charges force swooping down. The beasts made way as three pegasuses surrounded me. They known only to let the purest maiden touch them gently started to rub their heads on my body, desperately asking for my touch.
I didn’t deny it as I patted three of the most beautiful horses I ever saw in my life. Their white mane felt soft, filled with beautiful patterns, while their sky-blue eyes were filled with innocence and life.
By now, the commotion had taken the entire church by storm. I saw several people surrounding me, the clergies and nuns looking stunned and confused as they moved around. It was under these circumstances that I heard the familiar voice.
“You’re really causing a big commotion, my little brother…”
Turning around, I could see Hera standing behind me. She was dressed in her saintess uniform, her green hair cascading to her back, her eyes hidden by her white blindfold. Standing there, she looked beautiful and holy, the beasts making way for her, the love within genuine.
My eyes trailed her body and landed on her breasts, a huge one that only lost to Orpheus, its tight form being seen.
‘Guess it’s special?’
I thought. The Orpheus ones are extremely huge and truthfully quite unreal, but in the end, Hera only loses to them by a small margin.
“Like what you see~?”
Hera asked in a teasing tone.
“They’re not bad,”
I responded as I moved in and hugged Hera, a smile filling her face as she hugged me back, those luscious breasts pressing against my chest.
“Welcome home…”
Hera lightly muttered.
