Everyone in the hall was talking enthusiastically. They were extremely excited.
"The Goddess of Light is hosting the ceremony! I have to go!"
"Yes, that is a once-in-a-lifetime event."
"Finally, I have a chance to meet the Goddess of Light."
Everyone in the hall was over the moon; they wanted to be in Pearl City immediately. The Goddess of Light was the symbol of justice in the Roland Continent. She was the faith of the people, and she rarely made an appearance. All of a sudden, she was hosting a ceremony in Pearl City and would appear before everyone. Of course, the people were elated to hear the news.
The people believed that the ceremony was a good thing to maintain the peace and order of the entire continent.
Even the Queen was beaming widely.
There had been frequent wars among the six principalities in the past two years, and the people were unhappy. It was good that the Goddess of Light was to appear in Pearl City to preside over fairness and justice in the continent.
Like everyone else around her, the Queen also believed that it was an excellent idea for the Goddess of Light to hold the Holy Light Ceremony.
On the contrary, Darryl, who stood quietly by the side, was frowning.
He knew that something was wrong.
'If Yalena were to host the Holy Light Ceremony, she would definitely tell me beforehand. After all, I am the Saint Lord, and my status is equal to that of the Goddess of Light. She would not hide such an important matter from me.'
Besides that, the Pegasus Paladin was poisoned, yet Yalena did not help him to expel the poison in his body. Instead, she sent him out and about to run errands and spread words about the ceremony.
The more Darryl thought about it, the more he ascertained that there was a problem.
"Your Excellency Paladin!"
The Queen looked at the Pegasus Paladin with a smile. "It must be quite hard for you to take on such a far journey to be here. Please go and rest. I will definitely attend the Holy Light Ceremony in Pearl City!"
The Queen ordered the palace maid to show the Pegasus Paladin the way to take a rest.
Darryl looked anxious as he processed the information in his head. He asked, "Tell me! What happened?"
The Pegasus Paladin took a deep breath and explained the situation in detail. At the end of the talk, the Pegasus Paladin looked sad and angry. "It's all because of the two nasty women. First, they conspired against the 12 paladins, and then they targeted the Goddess of Light and besieged her."
'D*mn it!'
Darryl was shocked, and his heart skipped a beat. He was perplexed, and he felt a mixture of happiness and anger.
He thought that Yuri would be doomed after Bonnie rescued her, but he was surprised to hear that Yuri and Bonnie got the Temple of Light under their control.
There was no need for him to think about it. He was sure that it was Bonnie's idea.
Darryl felt extremely conflicted when he thought of Bonnie.
'F*ck, that Bonnie is lawless. Not only did she control the Temple of Light, but she had also imprisoned the Goddess of Light.'
