FLBE Chapter 5 Part 7

At the increasingly desperate gestures of Liena clinging to him, Roan bit his inner lip tightly. His mind was dizzy from the strong pheromones of Liena, which had suddenly covered his own.

 

 

 

In his urgency, Roan picked up Liena and hurriedly left the pond. He then quickly headed to his room. Roan’s ash-colored eyes were filled with a rainbow of colors for the first time in a while.

 

 

 

It was the color that appeared when Roan’s divine power as a Pope was surpassed by his energy as a high-tier alpha.

 

 

 

A thick vein popped up on Roan’s forehead. He bit his lip hard enough to draw blood and held his breath as much as he could. If he smelled Liena’s pheromones any more today, he would make an irreversible mistake. Liena’s pheromones were stronger than any Saintess he had ever met.

 

 

 

‘How can this be? What on earth, how did this happen?’

 

 

 

His mind was in a mess. But he didn’t have a moment to think about her mark right now. The moment he let his guard down, he would become a beast no different from Rhetrik. He had to quickly lay Liena down and get away from her.

 

 

 

When he arrived at his room, Roan hurriedly laid Liena down and covered her with a blanket. He was about to quickly turn around and leave when Liena’s hand, which was holding onto his clothes, stopped him.

 

 

 

His head was dizzy, and he felt his reason fading into darkness. As if a demon was whispering in his ear, he wanted to covet her, and the thought surged to the ends of his mind.

 

 

 

No!

 

 

 

His senses returned in an instant. Roan quickly dropped Liena’s hand and left the room. He then hurriedly headed to the chapel.

 

 

 

When he arrived in front of the chapel, Roan propped himself against the wall and barely stood up. Then, a lower-ranked priest who had been guarding the chapel rushed over to support him.

 

 

 

“Your Holiness!”

 

 

 

“Huh…I’m fine. Where’s Risar?”

 

 

 

“He should be cleaning the meeting room right now.”

 

 

 

“Send Risar to my room. And ask him to make sure to let the Saintess drink this.”

 

 

 

“Yes, Your Holiness.”

 

 

 

After confirming that the lower-ranked priest hurriedly ran away, Roan slowly sank to the ground. This was the first time he had experienced something like this. He still couldn’t believe the situation he had experienced. Pheromones as powerful as these.

 

 

 

He had been with many Saintesses over the years, but this was the first time he had been swayed like this. Almost being consumed by the pheromones of an omega. It was absurd to think about it.

 

 

 

“What on earth is she?”

 

 

 

There was more than one strange thing about Liena. Even if her manifestation had been free, she carried a different energy than the Saintesses who were born and raised in the temple. No, that was the problem in the first place. It was wrong for the mark to manifest in an ordinary woman.

 

 

 

“But why doesn’t she show any color? Does this make sense?”

 

 

 

The mark was not fake. He had clearly seen the white light. But that was all. The mark did not show any other color. As if her light was white, it shone brightly, but there was no color in it.

 

 

 

“What does this mean…”

 

 

 

Roan, who had somewhat calmed down, slowly got up and used his divine power to check his body. Suddenly, he felt ridiculous and pathetic.

 

 

 

“It’s ridiculous. If our enemy was filled with omegas like her, we would have been already massacred.”

 

 

 

With a bitter laugh, Roan entered the chapel.

 

 

 

****

 

 

 

It was almost evening when Liena, who had lost consciousness, woke up. She couldn’t move at all because of her utterly exhausted body.

 

 

 

After blinking several times, her blurry vision gradually cleared. And the first thing she saw was the familiar ceiling.

 

 

 

“Haah…… what, what happened?”

 

 

 

She didn’t know how she got there, but Liena was now lying on her bed in her room. She must have taken a carriage on her way back to the palace, but she seemed to have lost consciousness completely, not even remembering that.

 

 

 

Roan and she were conducting a ritual to confirm the mark of god. She remembered light emanating from his body and smelling his pheromones. From that point on, her body felt hot and her mind became foggy. After that, she couldn’t remember anything.

 

 

 

“Did Roan bring me back? But what color was the mark?”

 

 

 

She vaguely recalled Roan’s surprised voice. But she didn’t know why he was surprised. She had lost her memory entirely due to the unknown holy water she drank Roan’s pheromones and the divine power he radiated.

 

 

 

“I guess being a Pope really is different. Huuh…… I still feel like electricity is flowing through my body.”

 

 

 

Even the slightest movement made her body tingle. As if she had been electrocuted by high voltage, she felt electricity flowing through her body. Her head was still foggy. Whether it was due to the holy water, his pheromones, or divine power, she didn’t want to experience it again.

 

 

 

Just then, the door opened and a familiar voice was heard. No, more precisely, it started and then suddenly stopped.

 

 

 

“What in the world happened at the temple― ugh!”

 

 

 

That was definitely Rhetrik’s voice, but he suddenly let out a strange moan. Liena, wanting to get up but unable to move her body, tilted her head with a vexed feeling and called out to him in a weak voice.

 

 

 

“Your Majesty……?”

 

 

 

“Huh…… This is crazy. What the hell happened that it’s come to this?”

 

 

 

At his suddenly angry voice, Liena closed her mouth. She couldn’t understand why he was so angry, what she had done, or what had happened. Rhetrik’s face, which had come closer, was fiercely distorted. But what was even more absurd was that he was covering his nose.

 

 

 

“Why…… What did I do wrong again?”

 

 

 

“Haah, I sent you to learn healing or how to collect pheromones or something, but you’ve entirely coated the room with pheromones. And why does it smell like this! Ughhh…….”
