Chapter 90: Revealing the Truth
The moment Saintess Maria revived from the blood pool, John understood many crucial mysteries.
For example, the calamities that had broken out one after another in different places this year… the Southern Territory, the Western Territory, the Northern Territory, and finally the Royal Capital of the Central Region. All of these places had welcomed the Saintess before the calamities appeared because of the Grand Prayer Ceremony.
Moreover, if John’s guess was correct, Maria had personally made a trip to the Southern Territory in order to meet Nicole, who likewise possessed a Wishing Star.
“Miss Nicole, I personally heard Maria say that you, or Miss Annie, were the traitor among them. Yet you have clearly known one another for less than half a year. Do you not think you should give an explanation here?”
Е̌ n̄ um̀ а
“I, I…”
Nicole bit her lip. She had no shortage of doubts in her heart either. Originally, she had thought this was merely a premeditated operation aimed at them by the Northern Territory. She had not expected so many bizarre things to happen afterward.

“I believe I must warn you all. Right now is the crucial moment when everyone needs to be honest!”
Medivh heavily struck the ground with his staff. The power of an Archmage pressed down on everyone until they could barely breathe. He glared with sharp eyes, and a huge shadow instantly enveloped Nicole.
“Why are you asking me? I was suddenly told about the time reversal too!”
Nicole trembled all over, squeezed her eyes shut, and shouted loudly without caring about anything else. “Only the four of them have memories of the future! I don’t know anything at all!”
Ӗ ń uṁ ӑ..і̇ d
“Speak!”
A look of realization appeared on Medivh’s face. With a sweep of his robe, he arrived before Nicole in the blink of an eye. “Time reversal. Continue!”
Nicole’s face turned pale, and she collapsed directly to the ground. Tears flowed down her face.
She now felt that everything was so terrifying. Maria, who had revealed the secret to her and then turned into a monster, was terrifying. These powerful figures interrogating her about the truth were equally terrifying.

She had merely come to the Royal Capital once, yet she had lost one arm, lost Wolf, and lost her hope for the future…
“I will explain.”

Thorne took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and stood before Nicole. However, before he could speak, another unexpected person suddenly stood between him and Medivh.
Sophia respectfully saluted Medivh, her voice calm as she said, “Lord Medivh, I must remind you that our Mage Association has already learned from the Great Sage that this generation’s Hero is our hope for defeating the demon race.”
The Great Sage…
“Then I will tell you as well, Sophia.”
Medivh’s voice was cold. With another sweep of his robe, he returned to his original seat. “The last person who brought hope has already become a twisted existence.”
Everyone present knew he was talking about the Saintess. No, that could no longer be called the Saintess.

Thorne walked around Sophia, steadied his breathing, then solemnly saluted John and Medivh before recounting everything he had learned from Maria and the others in full detail.
Everyone fell silent.
The matter of time reversal was not complicated, but when they heard about that unprecedented three-way chaotic war, everyone’s expressions became incomparably ugly.
Under those circumstances, the kingdom had already been no different from destroyed. If not for the goddess’ power, they likewise would not know how to resolve a disaster of that scale.
However, when he heard that they had speculated Eileen stole the Wishing Star and used it, Medivh immediately interrupted Thorne’s explanation.
“Hero, I need to remind you that your assumption was wrong from the very beginning. The Wishing Star cannot be used by someone else in place of its chosen owner.”

If such a miraculous item could be so easily used by another person, the kingdom would have long since fallen into complete chaos because of it. Moreover, every person would inevitably make a wish the moment they obtained a Wishing Star. It likewise would not have been left to this generation to trigger the curse.
Medivh glanced at Nicole and continued, “Unless Miss Nicole was already dead at the time, and that maid obtained the Wishing Star’s new selection from among the vast sea of people by an infinitesimal chance, your speculation is extremely unrealistic.”

“However, the fact that the maid retained her memories during time reversal because she held the Wishing Star may perhaps be possible. After all, just as you said, Miss Nicole has no memories of the previous life.”
Hearing this, Thorne and Nicole, who had stopped crying, looked at each other again.
A new question arose once more. That was: who exactly had activated the time reversal?
It was known that Maria and Lilith had used their Wishing Stars, and Nicole’s Wishing Star had been in someone else’s hands. In that case, the only ones who could have activated time reversal at the time were Princess Diana and Miss Annie.
W̃ еb̌n̂ о̆ v е l̃ Ӗ n̄u.mа̀
Not only them, but Medivh and John were also pondering this question.
“My lords, I believe you have all mistaken the key point.” Sophia, who stood to the side, spoke in a solemn tone. “It is very obvious that the young ladies have already triggered the goddess’ curse. What meaning is there in continuing to obsess over the past? Should we not now be worrying about Duke Oswald, who has already begun his revenge?”
Nicole froze and asked through sobs, “That person really was… Duke Oswald?”
“Who else could it be?” Sophia laughed dryly and said speechlessly, “How many people do you think there are in the kingdom who could withstand a siege from that many mages?”

“Yes. Although he disguised his appearance, I could still recognize him. It is very clear that Oswald and Eileen came for Maria.”
John sighed faintly. He finally understood where the children’s conflict had come from.
W̆ е̄bnо v́ёl̃ Е n̈umа
Unfortunately, he had learned it far, far too late.
“What can be confirmed is that they learned about the past, and they specifically chose the time when the plague broke out in the previous life to secretly come to the Royal Capital. The two of them launched a decapitation operation almost immediately after confirming that Maria’s Wishing Star had failed…”
John looked at Medivh and reached his own conclusion. “My lord, perhaps the Duke’s side knows more than we do.”
Everyone knew Oswald’s methods. Now, fewer than one in ten nobles remained in the Northern Territory. If the Duke had learned earlier that the Wishing Stars could not be used, then even the Princess would probably have died back then.
The hatred accumulated from the previous life was far too heavy. The two sides were already standing in irreconcilable opposition.
Nicole’s heart suddenly tightened. She abruptly realized that she—and all of them—had no future to speak of!

Since Maria had turned into a monster, would she also…
Faced with such a choice, would these powerful figures hand her life over to Duke Oswald in order to appease his anger?
But I… I do not even know what kind of wish I made!
Nicole began crying again. She found this impossible to accept. Reality was so terrifying. Why had she come here to face all of this?
Medivh had no idea for the moment how to deal with Duke Oswald, who was bent on revenge. Moreover, after hearing the Hero’s account, had this group of people not gone to the Northern Territory, fooled around, and then ruined the entire situation?
This was the “hope” the Great Sage had spoken of?
Wе̌ b̄ǹ оv̀_е̊ l̃ Е̊ n̊u̇ m̆а̊
This time, even Medivh had no choice but to sigh. The complexity of the matter had already surpassed his imagination. He could only set Oswald’s matter aside for now and continue asking.
“There are priorities in every matter. All of you, tell me. Where will that thing go?”

To be safe, Medivh had already sent elite scouts to investigate the Saintess’ specific movements. However, until now, he had not received any accurate report.
Thorne was silent for a while before stepping forward to answer. “She said she would wait for me in Redwood Village. The time is noon seven days from now.”
…
In Green Gorge City, intelligence came flying in like slips of paper. The spread speed of this plague exceeded everyone’s imagination.

From time to time, people in the city became infected with the plague. Fortunately, the residents here had already been moved into the interior of the Northern Territory. The soldiers left behind strictly followed the isolation policy established by the Duke, and Sister Janice had promptly developed a prescription for treating mild cases, so order in the city had not been lost.
Kate lowered the telescope, her expression sorrowful. The soldiers who had volunteered to drag things out until severe infection had already been tortured by the plague until they no longer looked human.
Their bodies had begun to distort and swell, and they were vomiting blood in great mouthfuls. It was clear that they would not last more than a few days.
Yet she could not urge Sister Janice either. After the Duke left, Sister Janice often stayed up several nights in a row researching a prescription to treat the plague. The dark circles under her eyes made Kate worry that Sister Janice might collapse even earlier than the soldiers.

Kate, who still did not know that her own Duke was already suffering the goddess’ torment, could only clasp her hands and continuously pray to the goddess.
Inside the research room, Janice had already found the prescription for treating a similar plague. However, after she strictly followed the prescription and developed it, she discovered that the effect was minimal.

She was so busy that her feet barely touched the ground. She could only improve the formula again and use it as a new research direction.
To speed up progress, she had even dragged over the white-haired female elf who claimed to have specialized records on plagues to act as her assistant. The condition was naturally that, in the Duke’s place, she agreed to write several interesting books for her.
Janice continuously adjusted the dosage of medicinal herbs before the medicine cauldron. Fortunately, the Duke had purchased large quantities of medicinal herbs, so at least she did not need to worry about wasting materials.
What she needed to do now was race against time.
The female elf sat on a stool, picking her foot while casually flipping through a book she had written, then searching out the relevant memories.
“Silvergrass juice could be tried as the final ingredient. It should be able to magnify the treatment effect.”

…
“How about adding vineless leaves during refinement? That thing is more suitable for human absorption, and generally speaking, it has no side effects.”
Janice had already lost track of how many new ideas the female elf had provided. After recording this one as usual, Janice looked at the three words “Silvergrass” and suddenly seemed to remember something, sinking into her memories.
Several years ago, when she was gathering herbs in the forests of the Northern Territory, she had encountered a nature witch. At that time, the witch had come to save a migratory bird species that was dying off on a large scale.
“They were infected by a disease that causes deformities from the local birds while flying south for the winter.” The witch’s smile was honest, and she said with some embarrassment, “Little nun, could I trouble you to help me? The prescription I prepared is Silvergrass, Redthread Vine, Windward Flower…”
A deformity disease!
Еnŭ mа́. i d
Janice inhaled excitedly. She had finally seen a glimmer of victory. She hurriedly wrote down the prescription she still remembered. If she combined this with the book’s prescription for treating the plague, perhaps she could truly formulate a special medicine for treating severe cases!
