Chapter 627

As it turned out, there was still a huge difference between the imitation holy sword and the real holy sword.

Not only was there a difference in strength, but there were also other aspects that showed the difference between the two.

For example, the imitation holy sword did not have the holy power to purify all negative effects and eliminate all evil.

Without this power, the imitation holy sword was destined to be just an imitation.

Unable to exert the greatest effect of the holy sword, which was to restrain the Demons, the imitation holy sword was no longer a threat in the eyes of many people.

Moreover, the imitation holy sword could not have an exclusive user like the real holy sword.

Shien's holy sword was exclusive to him, and no one could use it except him. Once it was lost, it would return on its own after a period of time.

This was because the holy sword was the crystallization of power born from the concept of the "Hero". It could be said to be the clone of the Hero, the other self of the Hero. Therefore, it would never be truly lost. Only when the Hero died would it shatter and disappear with him, no longer existing in this world.

The holy sword that Rosie inherited was the exclusive holy sword of Mithra, which Mithra deliberately left in this world by sacrificing himself.

Although it was not Rosie's personal Holy Sword, it recognized Rosie and allowed her to become its user. For thousands of years, only Rosie, a descendant of Mithra, had been recognized by it. Therefore, if Rosie accidentally lost this Holy Sword, it would return to Rosie's side on its own. It would not be lost in the true sense of the word.

On the other hand, the imitation holy sword was only made from the ashes of the Hero, Ragnar, and various precious treasures from the Three Realms. Although it had some of the effects of the holy sword, an imitation was still an imitation. No matter what, it could not be as magical as the real holy sword.

Even though there were still very harsh requirements to use this imitation holy sword, and only the descendants of the Hero with the bloodline of the Hero could use this imitation holy sword, it was actually a product of this world itself, a weapon that was actually forged.

As a result, the imitation holy sword naturally could not have the magical ability to automatically return to its owner.

Even so, it could still exert some of the effects of the holy sword, and one could imagine the enhancement to Capeline.

In this world, the imitation holy sword was also regarded as the highest level of magic weapons.

Losing this imitation holy sword was like losing a strong and powerful arm.

Even if Capeline still had a pair of white wings and the unique skill that could even block the [Star Cluster Formation], Capeline's strength was very limited just by relying on the unique skill alone.

"Not to mention anything else, I may not be a match for Saliro Renitra now."

Capeline's beautiful face was full of melancholy.

"Even Brother Havis may be stronger than me now, so I probably can't be a trump card against the Poison Concubine now."

This was probably the thing that Capelin was most unwilling to accept.

In essence, Capeline was still a competitive Valkyrie. She was definitely the most upset about the decline in her strength.

Because of this, Capeline's chances of winning against Mara weren't high. It might even be difficult for her to protect herself.

After all, Mara had officially launched an attack on Capeline and the others, putting Harvey under house arrest. Capeline had also lost her imitation holy sword, and her strength had plummeted. This might cause the Queen to no longer hold back and focus all her efforts on dealing with this side.

That was why she compromised. That was why Havis was under house arrest. Havis had also lost the imitation holy sword, and her strength had plummeted. This might cause the Poison Concubine to no longer hold back and focus on her side.

She compromised to reality and to Shien.

"So, you agree to the deal?"

Shien blinked and looked at Capeline.

"There's nothing I can do." Capeline's expression did not change. "Besides, what Brother said makes sense. If we really reach that deal, it may not be a bad thing for us and the Empire."

In addition, she could also cooperate with Shien to eradicate Mara. In terms of conditions and results, it was not completely unacceptable.

"I see." Shien nodded and said with a faint smile, "If that's the case, you only have one purpose for coming here today, right?"

Hearing this, Capeline raised her eyes.

She came here to find Shien. Indeed, there was only one purpose.

"We're probably going to start a war with the Poison Concubine."

What Capeline said made the atmosphere extremely heavy.

Shien suddenly smiled.

Moreover, it was the kind of smile that was very cheerful.

Capeline continued.

"This time, my return has alarmed some of the nobles who know the inside story." Capeline said coldly, "Knowing that I was captured by the Poison Concubine and was imprisoned and abused by the Poison Concubine, those nobles will definitely come to deal with me."

Capeline's return injected a cardiac stimulant to the already chaotic Imperial Capital, but also lit the fuse.

"If I don't do anything, I will definitely expose the Poison Concubine's actions in front of all the nobles of the Empire. I will accuse her of imprisoning, plotting, abusing the royal bloodline, and attacking the royal princess."

Such a crime was enough to expose Mara's sinister intentions and monstrous sins.

By then, even the Emperor would not be able to protect her.

"Will it work?" Shien couldn't help but ask, "Words are no proof. The nobles of the Empire will not listen to your side of the story, and Mara will definitely not plead guilty, right?"

This was the only problem.

Regarding this, Capeline finally smiled.

"You still don't know what blessing I received, right?"

Speaking till here, Capeline spoke with pride and pride.

"Although I did not receive the blessing of the three Goddesses, I am still the most outstanding genius in the history of the Empire. The superior Goddess who blessed me may not be as high as the three Goddesses among the Protoss, but her strength and fame are enough to rank in the top three Protoss."

Hearing Capeline's words, Shien immediately understood.

Among the Protoss, there were only three whose strength and fame were enough to rank in the top three, but not the three Goddesses.

One was the legendary Trinity Goddess. When the three of them worked together, they could rival the transcendent Goddess of Time.

One was the Evil Goddess who could compete with the Demon Dwellers but was sealed because she lost control. The strongest Evil Goddess was Lilith.

The last one was the opposite of Lilith. They were born at the same time, but completely opposite.

She was the Controller of Justice and Order.

She was the fairest Protoss in the world.

The Goddess of Justice – Artemis.

"I am the well-wisher of Lady Artemis, the Goddess of Justice."

That was Capeline's declaration.

"With this blessing, as long as I stick to justice and don't become a destroyer of Order, I can get the power of fair and just judgment."

This power of judgment had a very strange magical effect.

For example, Capeline could not be interfered with by curses and evil negative forces. Only the power of an existence like Lilith, who was on the same level as Artemis, the Goddess of Justice, could work on her.

For example, Capeline could detect malice and not be harmed by evil.

For example, in public, when Capeline prayed to God and asked God to give her justice, she would get various privileges.

These privileges were beneficial to Capeline's exercise of justice and maintenance of Order.

In that state, Capeline could not be biased or fraudulent. She could only be the fairest judge, judging all the injustices in the world.

In other words …

"I can't lie for myself when I enter that state."

Capeline revealed the most important trump card.

Shien couldn't help but brighten up.

Tierre also had a reaction to this.

"In other words, in that state, as long as you say it, it's the unquestionable truth. There's no way to fake it, right?"

Tierre's somewhat cold voice came from under the hood, attracting everyone's attention.

Lockett stared at Tierre for a while, deep in thought.

Tilly's face was full of confusion, as if she was trying to guess who Tierre was.

Capeline frowned. She didn't know if it was because of Tierre's sudden voice or because of the unknown existence talking to her.

But she still nodded.

"Once I fake it, I'll lose my impartial position. At that time, not only will the blessing of Goddess Artemis not protect me, but she will also punish me immediately," Capeline said with great certainty, "Almost all the higher-ups of the Empire know about this."

Then, in public, once Capeline prayed to Artemis, the Goddess of Justice, asking her to give her a fair and just position and judge all the injustices in the world, then what she said would be the most credible.

In that case, if Capeline exposed what Mara had done to him, then those things must have really happened to Capeline.

In that case, Capeline's right to speak would definitely overwhelm everyone, and she would successfully expose Mara's true face.

At that time, Mara would naturally be unable to defend herself.

"Since you're so capable, why didn't you expose everything she did before?"

Shien was very puzzled.

"Before?" But Capeline sighed and said, "Which of the things that Mara did in the past did he do in front of me?"

That was true.

What Mara had done in the past was definitely not done in front of Capeline.

Since it was not done in front of Capeline, even if Capeline wanted to report her, without evidence and without seeing it with her own eyes, all the complaints would become wishful thinking.

This wouldn't do.

"I must be in a fair and just position, with conclusive evidence, or with my own eyes, and with my own experience. Only then can I start a trial." Capeline said, "The only one who can judge others at any time and place, discover the sins of others, and expose the sins of others to the world, is the Goddess Artemis herself."

That Goddess was the one who really broke the rules.

Capeline was only her Blessing, and she only had her Blessing. She couldn't reach that level yet.

Just like Rosie and Tierre, who could only be protected by fate, but couldn't control fate, Capeline could only be passive and fair. She couldn't force everything to be fair and open.

Now that Mara had made a move against Capeline, the conditions were met.

"In order to prevent me from exposing the Poison Concubine, the nobles on the Queen's side will definitely try their best to stop me. The Poison Concubine certainly can't continue to sit back and watch. She will definitely deal with me."

Capelin's voice spread out slowly.

"She'll be back soon.

"When she comes back, I will tell on her."

That will be the moment of the final battle. "
