When everyone was done with all the preparations, they followed Elena and went out of the mansion again. Elena was joined by Tomoe, Alisia and Turin. Grace was not going with them as she needed to stay in the mansion as a substitute for Alisia so that in a situation where there was some kind of emergency, she could take required measures.

After leaving the mansion, it did not take them long to reach Leshia's house as she lived very nearby. Then in front of the house, they were greeted by a very cheerful Leshia and her sister Anne who looked to be a little shy. Leshia always had a slight smile on her lips but she was never truly smiling and that slight smile was like a mask to her. But now she was really happy from the bottom of her heart after seeing her beloved little sister able to walk around like a normal girl.

When she heard that the genius daughter of the city lord was worried about her sister and wanted to come with her, she readily agreed. Leshia was an intelligent person and knew her own self worth. So she understood that this was not only kindness that was the reason for this. But after talking with Alisia she saw that even if there were some other motives, her concern for them was genuine. So there was no reason for her to reject this proposal. As for Turin, his current cute form soon became Anne's favourite and he became a playmate for her.

Anne's and Turin's mental age was almost the same, so they soon became friends. Turin did not reveal anything about his identity as a true dragon but he told her how he had run away from home. From this it was clear that Turin really believed in Anne. Soon Kaya also came here after finishing most of her works in the adventurer guild and then this large group of influential people left for the temple of pride.

...

The temple was open to everyone all the time and people could come here to pray to the goddess anytime they wanted. So there was no particular time when the temple was especially busy or empty. The priests and priestesses were always ready to assist any believers in praying no matter the time.

Currently one young priest and an even younger priestess was performing this duty. They had only seen a few people coming here to pray during their shift and those people were already knowledgeable about the way they should pray. So there was not much to do for these young acolytes.

But then suddenly they saw quite a few people coming toward the temple. The group was not large and had less than 10 people but for some reason all of them gave off some kind of authoritative aura that made the group to look like a group of thousands of people. So without them realising they become nervous.

But then they saw a familiar face in front of the group. Most acolytes working in the temple were familiar with this face as this person and to visit their head quite often. Seeing her in the lead, the nervousness of the priest dropped quite a bit and he cheerfully greeted Leshia.

But before he could complete his greetings, his face froze. The reason for that was the lady standing a bit behind her. Her strict and perfect posture immediately gave away her identity as a powerful warrior. It was none other than Kaya.

As for why this young priest was fearful of her, that was because of Kaya's reputation. Before taking the position of the guild master, Kaya was very famous in the city with her nickname "Fierce Death". Once when this city was attacked by a group of monsters, Kaya alone fought on the frontline for 6 hours straight, against thousands of monsters. That was a heroic scene that the people watching this battle would never forget.

But when the reinforcement arrived everyone had expected Kaya to fall back and rest after fighting for so long. But she did not do that and instead led the adventurers who came as the reinforcement into the battle once again while cutting down any foes that stood in her way. That incident had given her this nickname of "Fierce Death".

Seeing her scared the young priest for a moment but he soon composed himself. He knew that miss Leshia had a friendly relationship with Guild master Kaya, so it was not strange for her to be here with Leshia. Thinking that he calmed down and asked why Leshia was here.

Leshia looked at Elena to ask what she wanted to do as Leshia had no idea how Elena was planning to give her and her sister the blessing from the goddess. Elena calmly smiled at her and sent the Vampire Goddess a mental message to contact the head priestess.

Before coming here Elena had already told her about this plan and Vampire Goddess easily agreed. So currently she was actually eagerly waiting for Elena to call her. As soon as she got the mental message from Elena, she immediately sent the head priestess Pristela a divine revelation.

...

Head priestess Pristela had managed to find the blood of an A rank monster called Naogahara and this blood was her favourite type. She was just going to taste this supreme delight when a divine revelation suddenly appeared in her mind. Immediately Pristela let go of the glass in her hand and knelt down on the ground to receive this revelation.

After the revelation was over, Pristela stayed in her kneeling position for some more time to digest the message that she got. Then she stood up with a serious expression on her face and went out of her chambers. Her holiday mood was gone and now she was in her work mode.

After coming out of her room she called for three other people who were her helpers. Then she told them that the goddess had given her a revelation and they should start preparing for a blessing ceremony. Hearing that Pristela had received a revelation, they immediately became serious and bowed to her. Then all three of them went to the central hall of the temple to prepare for this ceremony.

As for Pristela, she went out to meet with the guests who would be getting the blessing today. She did not know how her good friend had managed to receive this blessing but none the less she was happy about it. But as the head priestess she could not show her joy in a public setting. So she went out to meet with her friend with a serious expression on her face.

Now it was finally time for the sisters to get their blessings and to upgrade their bloodline.
