My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

528  Chapter 528: Truly gone

Eren knew he couldn't involve Feng Yu in this mess. That's why he was in a hurry, ever since the barrier over the Holy City had disappeared.

It was only a matter of time before the other Overlords became involved. Before that happened, he wanted to take care of this matter.

The Holy Priestess was dead and his clone couldn't fight. The forces of the Western Continent were the weakest they had ever been, so there was no point in fighting a large-scale war.

That was especially the case since he wasn't going to gain anything from it.

Still, he declared war for a simple reason. The entire war was nothing but a distraction. It was a false smoke screen for the other Continents keeping an eye on the Western Continent.

The only person that caused him concern was the Dragon Queen, who hadn't woken up yet. He had left a few blood guards behind to guard her room, while leaving a letter for her before leaving.

He also left a few spirits behind, who could keep an eye on her to update him on the situation.

Eren thought that he had considered every variable in the situation. He didn't realise that he had almost completely forgotten about someone else who was waiting for him.

The Main Character of the Western Continent was still waiting in the middle of a desert with Aster.

It had been a long time since Aster was delivered a message that Eren was going to meet him soon. However, weeks had passed since then, but no one came to meet them.

For the first time, he had started to wonder if Eren was actually dead. Since he had stayed in the desert, waiting for Eren, he was also unaware about the drastic changes that had taken place across the Western Continent.

"Are we going to grow old, waiting here?" The girl couldn't wait anymore, growing impatient. She stood up and started walking towards the Holy City.

Even though these people had saved her, she couldn't waste too much time. She was already very considerate by waiting for weeks.

She knew that the more time she wasted here, the stronger that false Holy Priestess was going to become. Before that happened, she had to achieve her goals. She had to take that woman down, who had taken everything from her.

Aster wanted to stop her, but even he couldn't come up with a good argument to stop her. Even he was starting to wonder if Eren had completely forgotten about him. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Did something happen to Eren? Was he caught by the Holy Priestess? If that was the case, then he had to save him. He had to go to the Holy City.

Although slightly hesitant, he started accompanying the girl. Both of them walked towards the Holy City.

"Do you have any ways to enter the Holy City? Because even my portals can't pass through the barrier," Aster told the girl.

The girl nodded in response. "I have a method. However, I might need your help for that."

"If he is really caught, then I have to save him at any cost. I will lend you a helping hand if you can help me enter the Holy City." Aster knew that his life depended on Eren. He couldn't let anything happen to that person, or his own life might be lost.

The two people went towards the Holy City, and after walking for close to half a day, they were finally able to catch a glimpse of the Holy City in the distance.

At the sight of the Holy City, both of them grew surprised. Neither of them could see the Holy Barrier, which had been a defining feature of the Holy City throughout the years.

The two people went towards the Holy City, and after walking for close to half a day, they were finally able to catch a glimpse of the Holy City in the distance.

At the sight of the Holy City, both of them grew surprised. Neither of them could see the Holy Barrier, which had been a defining feature of the Holy City throughout the years.

The girl was confused. Why had the Holy Barrier disappeared? Just what was the Holy Priestess trying to do now? Something felt out of place.

She started running towards the Holy City.

"There's no need to run. If the barrier doesn't exist, I can take you to the heart of the city easily." A portal appeared in front of the girl, created by Aster.

Before her eyes, Aster stepped inside the portal. Frowning, the girl also entered.

Both of them stepped out of another portal, which had opened inside the city.

After entering the city, the two of them started investigating the reason behind the disappearance of the barrier.

They thought that they would have to be stealthy, since the Holy City was said to be heavily guarded. Once again, to their surprise, that didn't seem to be the case.

They could barely see any guards or Priests. Even the Holy Church appeared to have been abandoned.

Only ordinary people were left behind. They didn't even have to ask any questions. The people all over the city were talking about the recent incidents.

"Do you believe it?" Aster called the girl, finding it hard to believe that the Holy Priestess had given up her position of the Western Overlord.

He had also learned that Eren wasn't captured. Instead, he was treated as a guest in the Royal Palace.

Eren staying in the Royal Palace and the ascent of the Holy Emperor as the next Overlord, made Aster feel as if it had something to do with Eren.

He didn't know why, but he had a strong feeling that there was a hand behind the dark curtains that was manipulating everything in the Western Continent, and it belonged to Eren.

The girl didn't answer Aster. She simply closed her eyes, growing absolutely silent. After a long time, she opened her eyes that had turned pale silver.

"She is gone... She is truly gone..." The girl said in disbelief.

She started running towards the Holy Church. Although there were a few random guards left behind in the city, they weren't near the Holy Church.

There was no one to stop the girl from opening the doors of the Holy Church. The girl ran inside, and went straight in the direction of the Holy Priestess' Sanctum, as if she had been there before.
