Chapter 248: Half a Month Later

Intercepting the Moon Goddess Church’s divine ritual could actually restore divine power!

Charlotte was astonished.

However, her surprise wasn’t just because she had found another way to accumulate divine power in this era.

It was the fact that intercepting the Moon Goddess Church’s divine ritual itself could restore divine power that caught her off guard.

In the year and more she had been Charlotte, she had intercepted divine ritual from more than one church.

There were the big contributors from the Holy Court, the Blood Demon Cult, the God of Contracts Mithra, and the Nez Clan.

Yet, whether it was the Blood Demon Cult, the Nez Clan, or the God of Contracts, intercepting their divine rituals didn’t provide Charlotte with as much divine power.

Or more accurately, intercepting the divine ritual of others besides the Holy Court brought minimal feedback, almost negligible.

Only the Holy Court’s ritual was the most effective.

Because of this, Charlotte kept exploiting the Holy Court. It wasn’t just because their divine ritual was the most common but also because it provided the highest yield.

Charlotte never understood the principle behind this, assuming it might be a unique trait of the Holy Court’s divine ritual.

After all, the God Harald had the title of “Creator.”

Regardless of the truth, being a “Creator” and the protagonist of an era implied unique qualities.

Now, another big contributor had appeared.

The Moon Goddess Chruch’s divine rituals could also rapidly provide her with divine power like those of the Holy Court!

Charlotte didn’t know if there was an underlying reason she was unaware of.

But it certainly made her speculate.

Especially when she intercepted the Moon Goddess Chruch’s divine ritual, the feeling of her blood divine power being replenished was almost identical to intercepting the Holy Court’s divine ritual.

The keen perception of a bloodborne was unmistakable, especially with the enhancement of the Gospel of Blood. This sensation was entirely different from intercepting other churches’ divine rituals.

If she didn’t know she was intercepting the Moon Goddess Church’s divine ritual, Charlotte would have believed it was still the Holy Court’s divine ritual.

Could the Moon Goddess Chruch’s divine ritual be related to the Holy Court’s divine ritual?

Charlotte instantly had this hypothesis.

But the distinctly different divine power aura left her puzzled.

Since she wasn’t truly a God, unable to grasp the essence of divine ritual and power, she could only remain perplexed.

Regardless of whether the Moon Goddess Church’s divine ritual was connected to the Holy Court’s divine ritual, one thing was certain: she had found a way to restore her blood divine power!

With this method, Charlotte had hope of activating the blood contract she could vaguely sense deep within her soul.

Thinking of this, Charlotte looked up at the excited Hafdan, holding his children, and asked.

“Sir Hafdan, does the Tower of Sanctuary have daily prayers?”

In the brightly lit hall of the Tower of Sanctuary’s central area, the graceful statue of the Moon Goddess bathed in a radiant glow.

Not far from the statue, the elderly priest Enge was assisted by warriors, trembling as he bowed before the statue.

Behind him, a dense crowd extended beyond the hall, with people even standing on the slopes outside the tower.

The people followed Elder Enge, bowing respectfully and praying devoutly.

“May moonlight illuminate the world, may moonlight brighten the darkness, may the Moon Goddess’ radiance forever accompany my heart…”

The murmured prayers flowed through the hall, sacred and solemn.

The Moon Goddess’ Ceremony…

This was the daily worship of the Moon Goddess Church, the first thing Northern Mountain Tribe believers did upon waking.

Every morning, many Northern Mountain Tribe residents gathered at the Tower of Sanctuary to pray and thank the God for protection.

Recently, the number of people coming to pray has significantly increased.

All because of the figure before the Moon Goddess statue.

A beautiful girl stood there.

She wore a white dress that stood out among the crowd, her hands clasped, eyes gently closed, her angelic face bathed in holy light.

The girl was, of course, Charlotte.

She had been in the Northern Mountain Tribe for half a month. Discovering that intercepting the Moon Goddess Church’s divine ritual could replenish her blood divine power, she had been diligently participating in the daily Moon Goddess’ Ceremony.

A “Blessed One” participating in the ceremony naturally attracted more people.

Having experienced something similar in the Holy Court Church, Charlotte was accustomed to it.

“Praise the moonlight, may you always be with us!”

Elder Enge solemnly recited the final prayer.

“Praise the moonlight, may you always be with us!”

The crowd echoed, praying earnestly.

As the ceremony ended and the light faded, Charlotte slowly rose.

“Blessed One…”

“Blessed One…”

Seeing Charlotte stand, the crowd respectfully greeted her.

Charlotte smiled slightly and nodded in acknowledgment. The crowd instinctively made way for her, a routine they had become adept at over the days.

Without lingering, Charlotte nodded at Elder Enge and left the hall.

Only after leaving the Tower of Sanctuary did she relax her smile, feeling slightly relieved.

As she anticipated, intercepting the Moon Goddess Chruch’s divine rituals had almost the same effect as those of the Holy Court.

Moreover, possibly because the Moon Goddess Artemis wasn’t in slumber like Harald, intercepting her divine rituals before her statue provided even more feedback.

In just over half a month, she had accumulated considerable blood divine power, and her connection to the Gospel of Blood had become clearer.

Despite the gains, Charlotte remained cautious during each prayer.

After all, intercepting divine power in the presence of an awake God was audacious, to say the least…

Fortunately, things went smoothly.

With her experience exploiting the Holy Court, she managed to avoid causing any significant commotion.

Feeling the substantial divine power within the Gospel of Blood, Charlotte was very satisfied.

She felt that now she should have the ability to reconnect with her blood contract.

“Blessed One Sister! Blessed One Sister!”

A clear voice called from a distance, interrupting Charlotte’s thoughts.

She looked up to see the excited Lilith pulling the shy Harald along as they ran toward her.
