Half an hour later, we arrived at the training grounds.
The royal guards had been in the middle of their training when we arrived, so they were surprised to see us appearing here.
Klein looked like he wanted to lead a group over to help , but I shook my head at him to show that we were fine.
Though he looked at as if he had his doubts, he didn't co over in the end and just watched from the side.
The priest didn't seem to care at all about the way that he was being treated.
There was no doubt that he saw all of this since Klein and the others didn't hide the way that they looked at the priest. With the way that they looked at him, it was almost as if they wanted him to see them looking at him like this.
It was as if they wanted to put pressure on the priest so he wouldn't do anything that he shouldn't do.
Only the priest didn't seem to care as there was only one thing that was on his mind.
The look in his eyes was more than enough to show what he cared about.
The two of us stepped forward until we were in front of a wooden dummy and I turned to look at him as if I was asking him what I should do.
The priest just looked at with a calm look on his face and said, "Just will the power of the ring to co forth."
A bitter smile appeared on my face when I heard this.
If that was all that was necessary, did I need you to co all this way to tell this?
But then again, it wasn't as if this ring was mine in the first place.
It was the property and treasure of the Holy Empire, especially the Solista Religion.
If it wasn't for the fact that I had the Mark of God, they never would have allowed to co in contact with it. They would have kept it in the safe place that they had kept this thing all this ti.
So in a sense, it was only because he was here that I was able to use this ring.
I turned my attention back to the ring and then focused on it like I did with the Staff of Earth.
After tuning myself to the ring for a bit, I started to understand it and what it was capable of, just like with the Staff of Earth.
At that point, it only took a single thought for to draw out the power of the ring.
All of a sudden, there were flas that appeared around my hand.
However, these flas didn't burn my hand.
These weren't even normal coloured flas, these were white flas that didn't seem to have any heat to them at all with the way that they wrapped around .
These were the sacred flas that were released by the ring.
With these sacred flas, it would have been even easier to take out the lich since these were flas made from divine power. They had a natural ability to purify anything that they ca in touch with.
With them, the lich wouldn't have stood a chance.
After looking at the flas for a bit, I suddenly pointed at the wooden dummy that was in front of . The mont that I did, the flas imdiately reacted and jumped at the wooden dummy that was there.
Once the flas wrapped around the wooden dummy, it didn't last a single second as it was turned into ashes.
The intense heat that ca from the flas hit right in the face and I could tell from that just how powerful these flas were. It only made sense that the wooden dummy didn't last a single second against these flas.
These were the flas of a god after all.
Once the flas had finished burning the wooden dummy, I gave a satisfied nod at this.
The power that these flas had really was satisfying.
It was just that I didn't get the ti to enjoy this as a feeling of dizziness ca over and I couldn't help swaying.
Seeing this, Klein and so of the other royal guards ca forward as if they wanted to catch .
I stopped myself from falling and stood firm before waving my hand at them to show that I was fine.
It was the sa problem as with the Staff of Earth, this thing had bad mileage. It took a lot of mana just to activate the power of this ring and there was no safety feature that stopped it from draining mana if the person using it was running low.
So that was why I felt weak after using the ring.
Once I recovered, I took the ring off my finger with a bit of hesitation before handing it back to the priest.
But to my surprise, the priest raised his hand to stop before saying, "Your majesty, there's no need for you to give it back. You can take this as a present from our Holy Empire to you."
I imdiately knitted my brows the mont that I heard this.
After all, there was no free lunch in this world.
There had to be sothing that they wanted in return for this ring.
Especially since it was a sacred relic that was one of a kind in this world.
After silently watching the way that I looked at him, the priest finally said, "All that we ask for
is for your highness to co to our Holy Empire as soon as possible."
He still didn't say what his intentions were, he just wanted to go to the Holy Empire.
But the bait that he used really was enticing this ti...
A sacred item definitely wasn't sothing that could be bought with money and at the sa ti, I had already decided to go, it was just that I hadn't thought of a good ti yet.
If they were going to give this, wasn't this the perfect excuse?
