Chapter 736 Summoning the gods
So I figured that if I wanted to talk to her again, I should try using the same method.
However, the problem was that I had no idea what had even happened the first time.
The only thing that I knew was that Solista had been the one that had pulled me in. So unless she wanted to do that again this time, it didn't seem like anything was going to happen from just staring at the cross.
Still, that didn't mean that we were willing to give up that easily.
Even if she didn't pull me into her realm, there were still other things that I could do to help facilitate the process.
So the priest stood over me, reading from the scriptures of this world's religions.
It wasn't my first time listening to them, but it certainly was a strange feeling kneeling down in front of the cross while listening to the priest read them to me.
We kept doing this until my knees just couldn't take it anymore and I had to sit down for a bit.
The priest kept looking through different books on his table, as if he was trying to find some kind of way to send me to the god's realm. However, it was clear by the look on his face that he was struggling with this.
As for me, I had my hand raised and I was looking at the Mark of God that was on the back of my hand.
I didn't know if I could use this Mark of God for anything, but I wanted to believe that it was more than just a decoration that made it impossible for me to have children. I believed that there had to be a use for this thing that I didn't know about.
After my legs recovered, I started squeezing my hand and concentrating.
I was focused on the Mark of God that was on the back of my hand, as if I was trying to get it to do something.
I didn't care what it was, I just wanted it to do anything.
It was too bad that this Mark of God didn't do anything in the end.
It just remained a simple mark on my hand that didn't react at all.
As I stared down at it, I said to myself, "Just how can I see you again?"
After a moment of silence, there was a light that suddenly came from the Mark of God that caught both me and the priest off guard.
The priest wanted to come forward to take a look at the glowing Mark of God, but my hand had other plans. My hand suddenly came up and it was pointed at the cross that was in this room.
Then it pulled me up from the chair that I was sitting in and started pulling me closer to the cross.
At first, I tried to resist since I had no idea what was happening.
But then the priest said, "It must be guiding you. Just go along with it and see what happens."
A bitter smile appeared on my face when I heard him say this.
There was a part of me that really wanted to quip, "It's not your body that's being manipulated, is it?"
But in the end, I took the priest's advice and just allowed the Mark of God to pull me.
As expected, it pulled me over to the cross on the way.
However, it didn't just stop there in front of the cross.
It made me go right up in front of the cross and then pulled my hand forward as if it wanted to grab the cross off the wall.
When my hand made contact with the cross, there was a sudden burst of light that appeared.
This was a burst of light that even the priest could see, but there was something else that shocked him, "This burst of divine energy, just what is happening now? What did you do?"
I shook my head as I said, "I have no idea!"
The priest seemed like he was saying something else, but for some reason, I couldn't hear what he was saying. The light that was coming from my hand was just getting stronger and stronger, completely blinding me.
It was so bright that I had no choice but to close my eyes.
"You called for me?"
Those were the words that I heard in my ears and it came from a familiar voice.
This was a voice that seemed to come from all around me.
When the light slowly faded and I was able to see again, I found that I was in the same empty white space as before.
No, actually, this place wasn't empty like before because there was a figure of light that was standing there in front of me.
Or that was what I thought until that figure of light suddenly became two figures of light.
One was a white figure of light and the other was a green figure of light.
Both of them were figures that I had seen before, but this time…it didn't seem like the light around them was as bright as before.
I could see the faint outline of their figures, even if I couldn't see their full appearances.
These two were the goddesses that I had met before.
It was Solista and Vivrum.
Neither of them said a thing as they just stood there, as if they were waiting for me to speak.
I didn't say anything either as I just looked at the two of them in silence for a bit.
Finally, I raised my hand that had the Mark of God on it and asked, "Can you explain the meaning of this to me?"
