Gorgeous Jewel
Chapter II Chapter 53

Such a different atmosphere he could feel when he first stepped through the entrance and saw the inside of the temple. During this time she never once set foot into the temple, as a woman who really likes to have fun, of course for her temple and anything related to her is boring.

Along with a woman, Alice follows him until he reaches the room intended for her. The woman was pleased with her polite bowing to him.

Alice looked at the simple room she was about to occupy. I don't know how long she's gonna be here, but Alice's planning to start tonight.

When the temple became quiet and the day got late. Alice grinned and started her movement. He did not come out of the room but used his subconscious. He felt every energy and life in the temple. One man remained on guard not far from his doorstep. Meanwhile some others moved like they were watching his room from afar. Well, Alice doesn't really care about them. Alice expanded her consciousness. He explored every corner of the temple in search of Lilia's whereabouts.

Previously he had asked the woman who drove him, that he was eager to meet the Saintess because there was something very important that he wanted to tell her. But the woman shook her head saying that Saintess was in a state of prayer to receive revelation from the Goddess and she could not be disturbed. Then Alice asked about the Temple Head she wanted to meet and for the second time she got almost the same answer.

I don't know what kind of conspiracy is going on behind the scenes of this temple, but Alice can't stay silent as long as it concerns her loved ones.

Alice who examined the entire room found nothing on the third and second floors. Empty rooms, study rooms, and other unsuspecting ordinary rooms. Because in the sky he got nothing, so he will force to penetrate the earth, so figuratively he thought. And it turns out his guess was right. There was a breath of life from many people underground. Soon he dived in and felt dozens of people still awake. More than upstairs.

Alice continued to expand her subconscious distance. He began to feel something familiar. As he sat in his room and could be seen his eyeballs moved more intensely to the left and to the right looking for something. "Where? Liliana where are you?"

Like dewdrops of fresh leaves at dawn over a calm lake, her ripples made the surrounding area tremble and that's what Alice is doing now. Although it was high risk because someone with high strength might have noticed the energy wave he had just released but, after a while had passed, Alice was relieved that no one noticed it. "Maybe the higher-ups aren't anywhere near here." His mind then he headed towards the place he suspected the most right now. "Here!" That familiar feeling grew stronger.

Alice opened her eyes and smiled faintly indicating that she had gotten what she was looking for.

"Now is thinking about how I can distract the people who are watching me." His murmur lay on the bed while propping up his chin.

Alice rolled around here and there. He flipped through his body while drowning in his mind which still had not found a solution. In a room with no windows and only a small ventilation hole, Alice prefers to call it a prison rather than a guest room. After all, Cliff's intention to bring him here was also not for a tourist visit.

Alice stopped rolling and suddenly woke up, she sat down, Both her eyes widened slightly. Alice finally found a solution to get out of the room.

Alice pulled the door open. He showed a frightened face. "There's something, to-help me." He stuttered slightly with a trembling body holding the side of the door and pointing towards the bottom of his bed.

Alice looked at him with a pleading gaze, her brow curving down and her expression of pity as well as her trembling body made the woman pity and enter to check.

The woman walked up to the bed, when she wanted to duck down, Alice directly hit the back of her neck and knocked the woman unconscious. Alice immediately changed their clothes, she laid the woman on the bed and covered her with a blanket.

Before he stepped out, he checked his clothes well. Perfect. Alice took out the purple-colored potion that was within her dimension ring. "I'm glad I still have this." His voice shook the potion bottle he was holding. It was the super bitter drink he had tried before. Even so, it cannot be denied that the effect is effective for disguise.

Alice drank it, its appearance changed like a commoner in general. The beautiful golden blonde hair changed to brown as well as her bright blue eyes also changed color to brown.

Alice turned around once, looking at her appearance and hair from the side of her eyes, she was ready to look for Lilia

~

Not a bright room with a statue of the Goddess they used to worship to say a prayer. But Lilia was in a room she never entered. He was confined in an iron cage, moreover his strength was sealed because of the iron.

Lilia looked at the door so close in front of her eyes with a sour face. His hands were tied back with the same iron chain that made it harder to move.

"Cliff..." He muttered the name of the man annoyed.

He remembered earlier that it was the man who drugged him from behind. Before he lost consciousness, his dark eyes caught the figure of a man, he could not believe it when he turned around and showed his face. The man who smiled so disgustingly in front of him turned out to be Cliff, the temple chief confidant and a senior who always helped him when he had just been appointed as a Saintess.

Until now, Lilia was still wondering about Cliff's actions and she was also worried about the Temple Head. After returning from the palace, Lilia was unable to meet the Head of the temple on the grounds that she was meditating. However, his heart grew more agitated when three days had passed and as he asked the same question. Cliff just asked her to wait a little longer.

Lilia was surprised, because usually the Temple Head would leave or say something to her before she remained silent or meditated.

As a result, while trying to find out and investigate the room where the Temple Head used to meditate, he was drugged and when he realized, he found himself already in this room. In the bars with his hands tied and his powers that he could not use.
