《The Villain's Redemption》Chapter 285 - Sybill
Advertisement
In the original plot, the war started because of the rogues. The fight between the Lycans and the Rogues was devastating, it caused a lot of destruction and created a huge crack in the barrier that protected Zealandia from the outside world.
When the barrier was broken, the greedy eyes of the outside world started focusing on the magic in Zealandia. What they don't know was the fact that Zealandia had been sealed for a reason. Zealandians were the protectors of the world, the people who are fighting the demons that wanted to cross-realm and wreak havoc on Earth.
With the barrier broken, the demons immediately started roaming outside of Zealandia. By the time the world knew about the existence of demons, they were already everywhere, preying on the weak. Two years after the barrier was broken, a large group of demons crossed the realms and enslaved humanity.
Lily sighed. It seems that she woke up before the war started. The mission was actually to stop the destruction of the barrier. However, to do this, one needed to stop the war first.
Speaking of Princess Rhea, she is a witch. Someone who can actually see the future. From the memories of the body, it was clear that there will be different Sybill's in every century. They would not age for a hundred years and would be tasked to tell people about predictions and create powerful protection spells for the humans living in Zealandia.
Sybills are really powerful and could actually fight a Lyca with just their magic alone. However, they have weaker bodies. A protection spell could actually make them unconscious for days. Or at least that's what the previous body knows.
After that scan, Lily knew that this body was poisoned.
That should be the reason for the abnormal weakness, right?

When Lily heard the soft knocking sound of the door, she strode back to the bed and lay down, pretending to act weak.
"Mistress…."
It was the same woman who attended to her earlier. The woman's name was Mercy. She had been with Rhea since they were mere kids. She approached the bed. "Mistress?" Her voice was still soft, comforting even. "The Bishop is here to check your body."
"Mistress… please don't be like this. One more spell and you would surely collapse again. We can't let that happened again. Please…"
Rhea sighed. At least the original body was also feisty and stubborn. The original Rhea was also acting like she hated the world. Of course, after having her memories, Lily understood the woman's sentiments. Rhea didn't like the responsibility that came with being the Sybill. The ability to see the future would always make her sick. And she didn't like how everyone treated her like a brittle piece of furniture. She was treated like a princess, not allowed to go out to enjoy the sun or even walked around her own house.
They were scared she would stumble and would suddenly lose her ability to predict the future.
To the previous Rhea, it was all bullshit. All the visions came to her at night, when she was sleeping, and she hated how she would wake up exhausted because of it.
The previous Rhea wanted to run away.
However, the church is actually trying to imprison her in this place.
"Sybill… let me take your pulse."
Lily's thoughts were interrupted by the man wearing a long black robe. He was wearing some sort of velvet camauro hat. The embroidered white stole hanging around his shoulders made it look like he was about to do a mass or offering. Lily didn't say anything as the memories actually said this was normal here. "No. I'm not sick. Let me go out and create some protection talisman for everyone." She turned her head away, avoiding the priest's gaze.

"Sybill… let me take your pulse. It is essential that you take your medicine to make you feel better."
"From what?" she asked. They had been telling Rhea about this protection bullshit.
"From the people who wanted you dead."
Rhea rolled her eyes at the same script. Over and over, these people always used the same excuse to stop her from leaving. Seeing her dark expression, the priest let out another sigh. "The previous Sybill… died just after a few years."
The man's face was gentle, however, she never missed the warning that accompanied his tone. "She turned crazy. To stop her from hurting herself, we had to put her in a secret asylum. She died just after two months."
Rhea felt a shiver ran through her body. Even the previous Rhea has heard of this story and knew that the previous Sybill died because she wanted to leave the church too.
When the previous Sybill tried to escape the castle, the church put her in a secret prison until she was forced to kill herself. Since the Sybill killed herself, the church stated they were innocent in her death. All they wanted was to protect her, but the visions were too extreme that it affected her sanity.
Rhea already read the history books that had been around since the church started hundreds of centuries ago. She knew about the Sybills and how many of them would commit suicide because of the visions. However, Sybill knew that they were actually imprisoned and had no other choice but to end their own miserable lives because of the torture that they endured.
"You are threatening me…" Rhea said.
"I am simply warning you. The gods would not allow the Sybills to darken. The punishment from the heavens would be extreme." With that, the priest smiled at her and leave the room.
