However, Yuri easily accomplished what she couldn't.
How he persuaded his mother was no longer important to the girl.
Because—this in itself is a miracle, a miracle that only the Child of Prophecy could accomplish!
"This is the first time I've felt a prophecy so real and believable..."
Cecilia covered her lips, murmuring with deep emotion, "Yuri, you truly are a savior!"
"?"
Although it's unclear what she was imagining, Yuri found it quite pleasant.
According to the original plot, Cecilia failed to persuade her mother and had to part ways with Yuri.
Before leaving the Vatican, she gave Yuri her dagger as a token of her love.
When they met again, they were already on opposing sides.
Although Yuri was no longer the Holy Son at this time, Cecilia still wanted to save him from his fall into evil ways.
In their final reunion, Yuri is a defeated fugitive, while Cecilia is the one who has come to hunt him down.
Despite Yuri's tearful pleas, Cecilia finally relented and decided to disobey orders and let the boy she once regarded as her younger brother go.
—So far, it's still an alternate world version of Huarong Road.
Just as Cecilia turned her back, Yuri suddenly pulled out the two's keepsake dagger and stabbed it at the unsuspecting girl... a sneak attack!
But he didn't know that Cecilia still harbored resentment about their separation and even believed that Yuri's downfall was due to her.
To save Yuri from her fall into evil ways, the girl became even more diligent afterward, her strength increasing by leaps and bounds, and she had long since permanently imbued herself with a divine aura—
Yuri, who attacked Cecilia, was killed by the constant counter-damage reflection from her passive skill.
As for Cecilia, who mistakenly killed Yuri, she grieved as she held his gradually cooling body, suffering from severe PTSD...
Recalling the storyline in the game, the black-haired boy frowned: As expected of Teacher Dafei, even her way of dying was so clownish.
On the other hand, Teacher Dafei's experience in the game was indeed quite tragic, no wonder he no longer trusts anyone.
For Yuri and Cecilia, it was a tragedy from either perspective.
However, now, because of the boy's desperate gamble, their future has quietly changed!
“Yuri…”
Cecilia's excited whispers reached my ears.
"The savior legends you will create in the future may be composed of one small miracle after another, just like today."
"You're exaggerating! Is it really that amazing?" Yuri said with a smile.
"Of course...of course it's amazing!"
The blonde, purple-eyed female knight clasped her hands together, her face serious.
Cecilia would blindly agree with anything involving Yuri.
Everyone is a ○ person, they just haven't played their own ○ god yet, and Yuri is Cecilia's ○ god.
In her previous life in the game, her character was described as "a seemingly arrogant and aloof ice beauty, but a genius knight with a passionate heart hidden in her chest."
Cecilia, the female protagonist of the Papacy arc, is extremely popular even though she is not a ML character. Every time she is re-run in a gacha pool, she tops the charts in 27 countries around the world.
The current "Fiora" seems to lack some of her icy demeanor.
On the one hand, because Yuri interacted with her in a way that resembled that of a brother and sister, he could only feel her enthusiastic side.
On the other hand, she hasn't experienced separation and setbacks yet, which is attributed to playing with You Shen.
Cecilia murmured, "By the time Yuri dies, I'll be an old lady..."
At that time, I will also embark on a journey among the stars, visiting the world, building statues of the Holy Child, and telling children your legendary story!
Yuri rolled her eyes: "So why does it have to be based on the premise that I die before you?"
"Hehehe...! Then let's travel together!"
As they chatted, they walked toward the manor's exit, where a dozen or so maids lined both sides of the road, bowing to see them off.
This manor was built by Her Highness Rosalia at the Papacy.
The female Grand Duke usually lives either in the capital or in the Grand Duchy, and rarely comes here. This time, she only came because of her daughter.
Even so, the Grand Duke's mansion was as spacious and luxurious as a palace, and they walked for ten minutes in the garden before stepping out of the gate.
As Yuri walked out of Cecilia's royal villa, one after another, solemn white buildings came into view.
Uniform Gothic buildings stand on both sides of the street, and knights with swords at their waists line up along the edge of the road.
A nun dressed in a dark blue monastic robe is haggling with someone at the store entrance, holding a paper bag containing bread.
A nobleman, dressed in fine clothes and holding a cane, sat in a carriage and slowly drove through the middle of the wide and clean road.
Yuri was located at the Papacy, which was situated in the very center of the continent of Diamat.
Its official name is the Tenri Church.
The largest religious entity in The Goddess of Revelation, whose founding dates back to the end of the Second Age, now wields immense influence across the entire continent.
The Vatican is the common name for the location of the headquarters of the Catholic Church.
Farion, the world's largest city and also the smallest country, is the Papal city.
The deity worshipped by the Tenri Church is the Triune God, also known as the "Goddess".
"Goddess of the White Night" is the Sky Queen who governs many powers, including the sky, the sun, war, agriculture, commerce, art, and wisdom.
"Goddess of the Night" is the Earth Mother Goddess who governs many divine powers such as the earth, the moon, death, hunting, fertility, desire, and destiny.
Similar to the mythological changes in Yuri's previous life, the belief in the Earth Mother Goddess had already declined and faded long before this era.
More than 90% of believers worship the "Goddess of the White Night," regarding her as the creator god, the omnipotent god, and the one and only god.
As for the remaining "third goddess," her name has been hidden in the long history.
On the other hand, the Vatican may appear powerful today, but it is actually undergoing a major transformation that has not been seen in a millennium.
Two thousand years ago, mysterious phenomena known as "witches" and "magic" occurred one after another across the continent.
From this point on, humanity came into contact with supernatural powers beyond the "divine," and the belief in a single God was shaken.
Two hundred years ago, a religious reform movement took place on the island of Albion, separated from the mainland by a strait.
The Axiom Protestantism that emerged from this became the state religion of the island nation, and its influence has continued to expand to the mainland coast.
The impact of magic and Protestantism has gradually weakened the authority of the Papacy, but it remains the most influential organization in the world, possessing the strongest military force on Earth.
It can be said that the Church of Heaven is the de facto world hegemon and the dominant force in human faith.
"Let's go in, everyone's waiting."
Yuri and Cecilia stopped in front of a three-story building with a towering spire.
This is the residence assigned to Yuri by the Papacy. Although it cannot compare with the Grand Duke's mansion in terms of scale or luxury, it still exudes a solemn and ancient atmosphere.
It used to be the residence of a viscount whose lands had been confiscated by the king, who worked at the Papacy. Now it is used by Yuri alone, and nuns come to clean it every morning.
After the door was opened, a commotion arose at the end of the corridor.
"Oh no! Lord Yuri and Princess Cecilia are back!"
"Hurry up and pack! Hurry up and pack!"
"Hide the pizza!"
"Whose belt is this? Don't just leave it on the ground!"
The girl's panicked voice was mixed with hurried footsteps and the sounds of objects colliding.
Yuri's lips curled into a helpless smile, while Cecilia frowned, her face turning extremely pale.
"These idiots...!"
The blonde girl grabbed Yuri's hand and stormed into the living room.
007 The Harem Club Centered Around Me
After passing through the corridor, what greeted them was—
A dozen or so girls in white uniforms stood in neat rows on both sides of the spacious room.
They were all between fifteen and eighteen years old, their bodies wrapped in white uniforms symbolizing purity, with ceremonial cross swords representing knighthood and nobility hanging at their waists.
They are the "Lily Cross Knights" led by Cecilia, the principal of St. Cromwell Theological Seminary.
Although the girls lined up stood tall and solemnly, the living room was a completely different mess.
Chess and card games, books, and takeout food were scattered everywhere, and a pair of white stockings that someone had taken off was hanging on the sofa.
It was less of a gathering place for knights and more like a tea party for high school girls.
The so-called Lily Cross was the name of the royal guard responsible for protecting the Child of Prophecy when he was still a child.
The members of the Knights were all selected from female students at the seminary, or so it seemed—
In reality, they all came from nobles of various countries who had good relations with the Papacy.
The true protectors of the Prophet's Child are the Templar Knights scattered throughout the Papacy; as for them—
To put it nicely, they're there to protect the Holy Son; to put it bluntly, they're just sent by the family to gild their resumes.
After the prophesied children save the world, their glorious history as members of the royal guard will be recorded in family history.
Not all noble children are as outstanding as "Sword Princess". The Lily Cross Knights are basically just a group of young ladies of noble birth.
The pampered female knights have virtually no sense of crisis and lack discipline.
Cecilia took the Holy Son to see the Grand Duchess and instructed everyone to wait quietly for news, but they ended up having a girls' party.
However, Yuri herself doesn't actually dislike everyone.
Cecilia is a perfect, almost otherworldly, angelic woman, while the others are more like approachable, friendly older sisters next door.
"........."
Yu glanced at Cecilia beside him out of the corner of his eye.
