Camilla had finally recovered enough to move around, but the temple officials were still waiting outside Duke Sorfel's mansion. They had been staying there for several days because the church had ordered them to bring Camilla back. Duke Sorfel, Ludville, Ravi, and Arcian kept stopping them from meeting her. Jaynor even secretly asked Camilla if he should kill the annoying temple officials, but she quickly refused, even though she admitted they were crossing the line. Camilla then thought about the ghost of Arena Aguilas, the legendary last Saintess. Arena had died at the age of seventy-nine, but her ghost looked like a woman in her twenties because she had been blessed by God and never aged. Camilla realized that everyone was making a huge fuss because it was Arena's divine power that had appeared through her. Arena jokingly said she had always been amazing, making Camilla both annoyed and impressed.
✕Soon, the head butler Luve rushed in with surprising news. Pope Brisel himself had come to visit. Duke Sorfel became angry instead of honored because he already disliked how the church had been treating Camilla. Everyone around him immediately grabbed their weapons as if they were ready to fight the Pope. Camilla quickly stopped them, deciding that she would meet the Pope herself.
In the reception room, the Pope and the church leaders were extremely nervous because Duke Sorfel, Ludville, Ravi, Arcian, and Jaynor all stood behind Camilla with obvious hostility. The Pope's group could barely relax. After some polite conversation, the church immediately asked Camilla to return with them. They said everything was ready for her become the new Saintess and that many people were waiting for her. Camilla calmly refused. She said she would not accept the title of Saintess. The church leaders were shocked and demanded to know why. The Pope reminded her that becoming a Saintess was God's blessing and a great honor, believing she simply did not understand its importance.
Instead of arguing, Camilla said that she had received a revelation from God. Everyone became silent because a revelation was considered God's direct command, something even the Pope could not ignore. She explained that this revelation had been the reason she visited the orphanage earlier. Then Camilla completely changed her expression. She became cold and serious like a judge. Secretly, she was following the ghost Arena's instructions, since Arena knew the hidden crimes committed by the church officials.
Camilla announced that God had shown her that many people inside the church had stained His name through terrible sins. She began exposing them one by one. She accused one priest of stealing donations that were meant for orphanages. The priest immediately froze because it was true. She accused another priest of abusing children, saying he had falsely claimed they were possessed by demons so he could torture them.
I like to post spoilers for the stories I find interesting because I don't have much time to read novel due to busy schedule you will find me in most romantic historical manhwa comment sections
