Chapter 323 Son of the Moon, Every Part of Him is Precious (3rd Release)
Sister Sasha was not a dance partner of the Eternal Self, but rather a nun of "The Banqueter."
The Banqueter was one of the very few Angel Envoys, dance partners, lovers, and followers of the Eternal Self.
He was neither human nor elf, but a dragon.
Tracing back to their roots, all blood of the Children of the Moon originated from The Banqueter, and for this reason they were also known as the Children of the Dragon, granted with the traits of immortality and the ability to grow by consuming Phantom Demons.
And Sister Sasha was the mother of the first Child of the Moon.
She was a servant who served The Banqueter, and at the same time, his lover.
She received the blessing of the Eternal Self and gave birth to the first Child of the Moon who had both dragon's and god's blood — not transformed after death, but born a Child of the Moon from the start.
However, although Sister Sasha was indeed the mother of the progenitor of the Children of the Moon, she was ultimately just a follower of the Angel Envoy.
And for that reason, even though her son later became the "Blood Celestial Marshal," she was still only venerated as a "nun" without being granted a distinctive title or prayers.
After all, since the Blood Celestial Marshal chose to become a Celestial Marshal rather than an Angel Envoy, it indicated that He still harbored a desire for rebellion — after all, a Celestial Marshal could contend for the Seat of the Pillar God, something an Angel Envoy could not.
— Of course, it might simply be because the Eternal Self did not want to accept him.
Beings of such unique existence are not usually permitted to be openly venerated.
The Church typically only allows the veneration of the Nine Pillar Gods and their direct Angel Envoys, the Celestial Marshals of various Paths, the Angel Envoys of the Celestial Marshals, and the followers of these Angel Envoys. Although they are also in the Dream Realm, they are almost never part of the Church's list of deities for worship. Only a few exceptions receive a more favorable treatment.
Unless necessary, the Church also doesn't publicly suppress these churches — provided that what is being worshipped are actual gods from the Dream Realm, rather than some name made up by an organization for profiteering.
The main concern is to avoid offending the gods. Not to venerate them is out of ignorance of which Angel Envoy or Pillar God might not be on good terms with them; not to suppress them is out of fear that perhaps an Angel Envoy or Pillar God might be too closely connected to them.
It's like speaking ill of someone, but that person's friend's friend might happen to be your boss, while another friend of theirs might be an enemy of your boss. In such a situation, helping or not helping both yield complications... The Church can only strive to maintain a neutral stance. Stay tuned for updates on My Virtual Library Empire
Therefore, these small churches that are not assigned a priest by the Nine Pillars Divine Church but are not banned or suppressed either, are known as "Secret Cultivation Assemblies," existing in the gray area of Church law.
The general idea is, as long as you keep to yourselves and don't cause any major issues, we won't interfere.
After death, Sister Sasha became a Phantom Demon of both "Love" and "Dedication" paths.
The level 50 complete set of the advanced profession for priests, "Torchbearer," is "Sister Sasha's Holy Feast."
This set of equipment can also be used by Illuminators — and Aiwass, who possesses the Nurturing Skill, is even more suitable for this set than a regular Torchbearer.
The core effect of Sasha's set is a series of effects that get triggered "when the wearer loses their own life while buffing or healing others."
The reason Aiwass wanted to follow their teacher to grave robbing was to lay hands on those key pieces of equipment from certain ruins known to produce components of the set.
Because unlike Lily's set... it wasn't simply made by someone and then hidden away.@@@@
So you old thing, you were still not dead after more than three hundred years!
—On the other side, for some reason... Director Cornelius felt a chill.
He shivered and politely bid farewell to his distinguished guest, "Then I shall take my leave, Miss Beyard."
"Goodbye."
Beyard smiled and watched him.
It was only after Director Cornelius had left that she turned back to Aiwass, "Is there anything you would like to do now?"
"I want something to eat."
Aiwass's eyes suddenly sparkled with light: "Meat! I want some meat...!"
—It was only eight o'clock in the evening, and the ceremony wouldn't end until tomorrow morning.
She had just slept for an entire day, gotten up and eaten some fruit, still fasting, and then drunk some wine. Then she was nearly drained to death by Beyard.
And although she had regained her vitality, she was close to starving to death.
She was also genuinely curious about what people liked to eat in this era.
She would eat something and then return the same way—by that time, she might just intercept one or two people.
Well, that would spare them the painful struggle of turning on each other in the end.
I'm such a good person, Aiwass thought to himself.
"...You've been hungry for so long, will you be alright suddenly eating meat?"
Beyard was slightly skeptical and somewhat concerned.
She was also affected by the words Aiwass had said before about "becoming my master," which unsettled her.
After thinking for a moment, she took Aiwass's hand, "We have plenty of time, I'll take you for some soup.
"That's a shop I... when I was still human, really enjoyed. Maybe she will like it too."
"Alright..."
Aiwass had just responded when he suddenly realized something else.
—Wait, am I just leaving Crescent Moon Manor like this?
Gemini Mirror, how big of a space have you carved out with Amber?!
As expected of the Pillar God of the Path of Beauty, your creation truly encapsulates perfection...
