The Villain Saint is my secondary account

The fake saint didn't see the capitalist smile on Ella's face; she simply exclaimed with pure joy.

"of course."

Ella nodded, thinking that this guy was indeed quite naive.

"Lydia, you and Ye Xiao are lovers, so... Ye Xiao and I are family too!!"

The fake saintess laughed again.

"Wait a minute... ...I don't think I can say it like that..."

Only then did Ella realize that something was wrong; she had been tricked.

But words spoken are like water spilled; the fake saint ignored Ella's twitching lips and, clutching the parchment scroll, prepared to sign the contract with a quill pen.

But then she froze, her hand holding the pen remaining motionless for a long time.

"what happened?"

Ella asked, seeing this.

"Here... here it says to write your name..."

The fake saintess smiled awkwardly, "But I don't have a name..."

Oops... I forgot about that.

Ella patted her head, realizing she'd hit a nerve with the child. "It's really not appropriate not to have a title. I can't keep calling you 'Fake Saintess' all the time, can I? How about... you come up with a name yourself?"

"What you think..."

The fake saintess pursed her lips, and then, as if full of hope, put her hands in her pockets and looked at Ella with wide eyes.

"Um, you don't want me to get it, do you...?"

Ella scratched her head.

"After all, you're the one who brought me a new life, even if you're my younger sister,"

The fake saintess then crossed her arms and muttered, "But it's fine if you don't want to, hmph, it wasn't like I absolutely had to make you take it anyway..."

"Okay, okay, I got it. I'll think of one."

Ella was speechless, racking her brains to find the information she had.

"Well, from now on I'll call you... Alina."

"Alina... did you just reverse your name and add a few random letters to make it?"

The fake saint's lips twitched.

"Doesn't this just prove that we have a close relationship?"

Ella's eyes darted around.

"Oh, I see!"

The false saint, or Alina, immediately showed a look of delight on her face.

"If someone asks for your last name, then use Heville, just like me."

Ella waved her hand again.

"Ok!"

Alina nodded, "Ah... but I'd like to change my surname to 'Ye,' is that okay?"

"Of course not."

Ella was speechless; this was a mix of East and West.

"Ok."

Alina stuck out her tongue and gently wrote her name on the contract parchment with a quill pen.

"Alina Hevy..."

She repeated it to herself, a slight blush rising to her cheeks, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily turned up.

But at that moment, a small crack suddenly appeared on her originally fair cheek.

"click"

It was as if the eggshell had shattered, and the cracks quickly spread throughout the body like a spider web.

"Fake... Alina, what's wrong with you??"

Seeing this sudden change, Ella's heart tightened, and she immediately stood up from behind the table.

Although when she stood up, her height didn't seem to be much different from when she was sitting.

"What's wrong?"

Alina's body was covered in cracks, but she seemed unaware of it until her gaze fell on her hands, which were also covered in cracks, and she exclaimed in surprise, "Huh!??"

"Click"

The tall girl's body suddenly shattered, and dazzling golden light burst forth from within.

Then, the upper body of the shell broke into pieces and fell off, revealing a girl with black hair and blue eyes, but who was very small in stature.

If Alina's previous appearance was that of a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, then the girl emerging from her body now looks like a little girl who is probably no more than eight years old.

Aside from her human body, she even has a pair of snow-white wings on her back, which surround her, making her look like a newborn little angel.

"Alina?"

Looking at the tiny little girl in front of her, who seemed to have hatched from a shell, Ella called out tentatively.

"Lydia, I..."

The girl stared blankly at her fair hands, then pinched her cheeks with both hands. Her stunned expression quickly turned into uncontrollable excitement. "I...I've grown up!??"

"If you didn't know better, you'd think it was your birthday."

Ella breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Alina seemed to be alright.

However, she was also surprised that Alina had suddenly changed her appearance. Originally, she was a somewhat terrifying fetal figure, but unexpectedly, that fetal figure could actually grow up.

Is it just because I gave her a name?

Ella looked at the girl with some doubt. Although she had heard some legends about bestowing names, she couldn't believe that simply giving a name could cause such a strange phenomenon.

She clearly didn't feel any changes in herself. Logically speaking, if she had caused the change, shouldn't she at least have contributed some divine power?

On the other side, Alina was still trembling as she fiddled with her fully grown limbs, her face filled with disbelief.

In some ways, it really does resemble a child who has just been born into this world.

However, this creature's true form was naturally naked. Although it was mostly covered by wings, Ella still had her tentacles retrieve one of her cloaks from the portal and drape it over Alina.

Alina took the cloak, her two soft little hands clutching the hem. Overwhelmed with joy at her new life, she could no longer contain herself and her eyes welled up with tears of excitement.

"Thanks……"

"Thanks!!!"

……

As dawn broke, Ella and Alina's long conversation that had lasted all night finally came to an end.

The girl, wrapped in a large white cloak, ran barefoot out of the study, led by Ella, attracting the attention of a group of passing church believers.

Fortunately, Alina's wings could be retracted at her will, so what everyone saw this time was just a cute-looking young girl.

"Nia, have someone prepare a bedroom for her."

Ella summoned the young nun she had brought from the Loren Sanctuary and instructed her to take Alina to arrange accommodations.

"No problem, Your Majesty,"

The young nun Nia nodded obediently. "Is this your sister?"

Ella scratched her cheek with her index finger. "I guess so."

"Then I will go and inform the steward to provide her with attendants."

Nia bowed slightly.

"Oh, no need. Just give her the treatment of a trainee pastor. Also, let her participate in courses with other young pastors."

Ella pondered a lot about what to do with Alina.

She made a special attempt to replicate Alina's divine authority of light, but she still failed.

The failure to replicate the previous event in Stormport doesn't seem to be an accident. Although the reason is unknown, it seems that Ayla really can't grasp the divine authority of light.

However, this is not surprising. After all, the God of Light created Alina and her to prevent the laws of light from being corrupted, so it would be strange if he didn't take some precautions.

Therefore, Alina's unique divine authority is undoubtedly of great use, and may even be able to unleash the power of the Holy Lance.

However, considering the lack of education the other party has received over the years, it is more important to make up for Alina's shortcomings right now.

Alina currently only has a general concept of good and evil and has begun to pursue goodness, but she has not yet formed a truly mature and complete set of values. The impact of children's education on individual growth has been proven to be very important on Earth.

Ella can guide Alina on the big picture, but many small, trivial things still require long-term nurturing at the academy, since Ella isn't a professional teacher.

Therefore, Ella cannot let Alina escape the childhood filled with homework and classes that other children have.

Of course, there would be just as much work to be done for her, so Alina would definitely be much busier than other kids; she wouldn't get a holiday while others did.

Ella watched Alina skip and hop to the window to admire the view, and a smile crept onto her face.

Growing up always involves a little bit of trouble.

……

After settling Alina in, Ella went to the prayer square located outside the White Tower.

Although the one-day flood in the holy city was quickly resolved, the lingering effects were not completely eliminated.

Aside from the reconstruction of many damaged streets, the effects of the Black Snake disease continue.

Holy Light spells can only suppress the healing of Black Serpent Disease to a certain extent. While a complete cure is not impossible, it requires a significant amount of time and mana.

Therefore, following Ella's instructions, the White Tower priests summoned all the sick people in the city to the square this morning.

Many believers, despite not being ill, went to the White Tower after hearing that the saint was going to preach publicly.

As a result, the White Pagoda Square is now packed with believers, and as far as the eye can see, it is a sea of ​​people.

Of course, the bodies of the beheaded criminals that were originally placed in the square were now dragged to the underground prison and thrown into a muddy sea that Ella had created at the bottom of the prison for secondary use.

Because the wounded were prioritized for deployment in the plaza, the sounds of painful cries and shouts mingled together, creating a bustling and noisy scene. The noise subsided only slightly when Ella, dressed in a white dress, emerged from the main gate at the base of the tower.

"Your Holiness, the number of wounded in the square is roughly estimated to be over 23,000. Due to the time constraints, we haven't had time to make a detailed registration of each one."

On the steps, the guard knight Orfindo reported the situation below to Ella.

"It's alright, we can have the victims report the detailed statistics after the event."

Ella glanced at the crowd below, sighed slightly, and then interlaced her fingers in a prayer gesture.

A flowing veil draped over her silver hair as she nodded, and her pristine white skirt, adorned with gold patterns, fluttered gently in the wind. A deep blue magic circle then spun and expanded beneath her feet.

“Dear believers…”

The girl's soft, heavenly voice, amplified by the sound-amplifying array, resonated throughout the entire plaza, shining like the warm morning light upon everyone present.

The melodious voice echoed in the air, seemingly dispelling the pain for a moment. Even the most seriously injured patient stopped sobbing and subconsciously raised his head to listen quietly to the girl's voice on the distant steps.

"I am sorry that you have had to endure this turbulent period since I succeeded to the throne."

"Too many things have happened in the Holy City in the past two weeks. Among the high-ranking members of the Holy Temple, the three major families are corrupt and have colluded with the Dark Cult to launch a rebellion, which once plunged the entire city into crisis."

"We ultimately triumphed, but the sinners of the Dark Cult still left deep suffering in the city."

"The scourge that has afflicted you, the Black Serpent Disease, is one of the calamities they have caused. And, unfortunately, based on the research of myself and the high priests, we cannot completely cure this disease using only holy light magic."

Chapter 151 The Gospel of the Holy Maiden

Ella's voice was gentle and calm. When the seriously ill believers heard it, their faces were first stunned, and then, inevitably, fear and despair arose in their hearts.
