Chapter 737 A solution
The two of them didn't even bother asking me what I was asking about as they just came forward to stand in front of me.
But they also didn't look at the Mark of God that I was holding up.
The two of them were just looking at me, or at least that was what it seemed.
Solista was the one that spoke first by saying, "It's not because of this that you're not able to have children."
Vivrum gave a nod of agreement after Solista said this.
I couldn't help revealing a surprised look when I heard this from the two of them.
I wasn't actually surprised by what they said, but rather the way that they said this.
The way that they said it was almost as if they knew something that I didn't know.
It was almost as if there was something that they were hiding from me.
"Don't ask us, we can't tell you yet." Solista suddenly said as this thought passed through my mind.
Vivrum said with a nod of agreement, "This is something that involves a matter much bigger than this. This is not something that we can discuss until the time is right."
I looked at the two of them with a strange look before asking, "Then when is the time right?"
Neither of them said a thing in response to this.
Rather, it looked like they weren't able to say anything in response to this.
It was almost as if there was something that was keeping them from telling me what they wanted to tell me.
Seeing this, I just said with a sigh, "Then at least tell me what I should do about this. Even if you aren't able to tell me anything, you can at least tell me something about how to solve this, right?"
Solista gave a simple nod when she heard this.
With a wave of her hand, there was a white light that suddenly appeared around me.
I was very confused why she would do this, but the reason showed itself.
When this white light appeared around it, it seemed to pull some kind of white energy out of me. I had no idea what this white energy was, but it didn't seem like it was a bad thing that she was doing it.
After this white energy was pulled out, Solista said, "This is the divine energy that is gathering inside of your body. We could drain it out of you like this, but it wouldn't be effective at all."
With another wave of her hand, the white light disappeared from around me.
I couldn't help asking, "Why did you stop? Wouldn't it work if you just drew out the divine energy from my body?"
Solista shook her head as she said, "This is only a temporary solution and wouldn't solve the root of your problem."
"What is the root of my problem?" I asked right as she said this.
Solista raised her hand and gathered some of the white energy that she had drained from me. This white energy just floated there as a ball of white energy while she spoke.
"Divine energy as the name suggests is the energy controlled by gods. That means that this is the energy of the gods and not something that mortals would be able to make contact with."
I gave a nod of understanding since this was already something that the priest had told me about.
"So why do you think that this divine energy is able to remain in your body?"
I was surprised to be asked this, but then I said with a bitter smile, "Isn't it all because of the mark that you gave me?"
Solista shook her head as she said, "But a mortal body is something of the mortal world, so why would it be able to contain divine energy in the first place? This isn't something that would make sense."
I was confused at first, but I slowly understood what she was implying.
So I had to ask, "Then you're saying that the scriptures that were left in the mortal world were wrong?"
Solista shook her head and it almost seemed like she was smiling as she said, "The humans that received the Mark of God before have put a bit of an exaggeration in those accounts. Of course they are human, so they will feel greed as humans. We can forgive a little greed from them since they are only human and they have performed greatness with our Mark of God. But that doesn't mean that it's completely accurate. A mortal shouldn't be able to contain divine energy in the first place."
It was all slowly clicking in place for me.
What she was saying was that the ones that had received the Mark of God before had lied about their conditions to make themselves seem even more eminent so they could receive more benefits.
When in truth, their bodies didn't have any divine energy at all.
In that case, why did I have divine energy in my body?
Not only did the priest demonstrate this with the cross, even Solista herself pulled the divine energy from my body.
"This isn't something that we can tell you. You have to figure this out on your own in time or else it will have no meaning."
A bitter smile appeared on my lips again.
They were gods, of course they could read my mind…
So I ignored this and said, "Alright, let's forget about that for now. You have a solution for this problem, right?"
Solista slowly gave a nod before she continued with her explanation.
"The reason why your body is so filled with this divine energy is because you only have two kinds of divine energy. There's enough room in your body to balance all of this, so they are too strong for the mortal world. But if there's another form of divine energy that enters your body and clashes with our divine energy, then it'll weaken it to the point where it won't completely fill your body with divine energy."
