Chapter 539 Theresa takes over as bishop
Screen continues
Theresa turned to the marble table, put a bottle of wine on it, and poured her a small glass. "Jizi, this is a good bottle of wine. You were sad for a long time when I took it away."
"Now, it's time to return it to its original owner." Theresa stepped aside.
The breeze was still whispering its confession, and the young grasses lowered their heads in silence.
Kiana walked forward slowly and stared at the broken sword for a while. The sword had brushed past her and she could still vaguely hear the sound of it breaking.
Kiana clenched the container in her hand. "I once made mistakes due to confusion, and lost myself due to fear... In the darkness, it was you who lit up the sky for me and illuminated the way forward for me in the quietest night."
"You showed me how to move forward, Mr. Himeko. The sky you left behind is still clear. We will continue to move forward along the path you have opened up."
The wind had stopped praying, and there was silence all around. People came forward and laid down their memories on the marble.
People were immersed in the past, and spoke little until the end. The clouds disappeared without a trace, and the sky became clear and blue until the stars filled the night sky.
That night, Kiana had a dreamless night.
Mei Raiden looked up at the night sky. The stars were shining brighter than ever tonight, and under the shining stars, the sky looked like flowing hail.
After making sure that no one was around, she walked towards the marble with the cracked sword, where flowers and people's memories were intertwined and embraced each other.
[Kiana] "I thought you wouldn't come to participate, Mei."
[Raiden Mei] "Teacher Himeko's education is also of great significance to me. How could I not send Teacher Himeko off on her final journey?"
[Captain] "As expected, after all, she is a teacher who has four Herrschers at once, so how could Raiden Mei not show up to mourn for Himeko-sensei?"
[Paimon] "If there was a competition between me and the tissue paper, to see whether my tears dried up first or the tissue paper ran out first, then I can declare right now that the tissue paper won."

Mei bowed slightly and walked to the front of the stage "I'm sorry, Mr. Himeko, I'm sorry to come to see you alone at a time like this."
Mei stood there in silence for a while, as if she was considering her words. She had a lot to say, but she felt that some words would lose their original meaning once they were spoken.
Mei Raiden: "I have always kept your teachings in mind, which has made my choice more resolute. You taught me how to protect a person and how to live my life."
"And I did that." Mei Raiden took a deep breath. There were some words she didn't want to say at this moment.
"It's better to tell you with actions rather than words." Raiden Mei presented a bouquet of flowers to the stone platform.
"Thank you, Mr. Jizi. It is my honor to be your student."
Mei Raiden bowed finally, shaking the night air and the marble table slightly with these words.
Then it disappeared into the starry night.

[Congratulations to Theresa for replacing Otto as the new Bishop of Heaven's Destiny, so please humbly give up your position, Bishop.]
[Otto] "I, Otto, would be delighted."
[Susanna] "Congratulations, Lady Theresa. Oh no, I should call you the Bishop now!"
[Theresa] "Xiaobai, tell me the truth, did you confuse rewards and punishments?"
「How could that be? I gave you the power to directly control the entire destiny. Don’t thank me too much~」
[Theresa] "Who wants this reward? Cancel it immediately!"
[Sorry, rewards and penalties are not refundable or exchangeable. ]
[Theresa] "Well... Anyway, no one else knows about this matter yet. I am at most a bishop in name only. In public, it is still Grandpa who holds the position."
[Rita] "Respected Bishop, Rita reminds you that your succession to the position of Bishop is already known to almost the entire world."
[Theresa] "What?!"
[Kiana] "Really? Now the news all over the world is broadcasting the enthronement of the new bishop Theresa Apokalis."
[Theresa] "But... Grandpa is still here, right? I don't have to worry about taking over, right?"
[Otto] "Theresa, Grandpa is old. He can't compete with you young people who are full of energy and vitality. I don't know how long this body can last. (Pretends to cough a few times)"
[Theresa] "You're made of soul steel, and you're not going to blush when you say that... Never mind. Being able to lie without blushing has always been one of the things I envy about you."
"But no matter what you say, I don't want to face that mountain of workload! I don't want to be one, and I'm not interested!"
[Otto] "Granddaughter, you just had a temporary fear and resistance due to the unknown busyness."
"Don't worry, Grandpa has already made arrangements - more demands, less temptations, I'm sure I can help you adjust to the best working state as soon as possible."
[Theresa] "What?!"
[Otto] "Okay, keep working hard Theresa, all the destiny will fight for you!"
[Theresa] "No! Yulandel is more capable than me, Rita is much more careful and calm than me, and Amber is more familiar with the bishop's work than me. Why did you have to choose me!"
[Rita] "Your Excellency, Rita is truly unworthy of this position."
[Yulan Dell] "That's right, Auntie. After all, you have managed the entire Far East Demon Cave."
[Amber] "Although being a bishop will be harder than before, we believe in you. The position of bishop belongs to you!"
[Karen] "Come on, my little Theresa~ Your grandparents will always support you!"
[Otto] "Theresa, don't underestimate yourself. You are no worse than anyone else. You are my successor, the heir of the Apocalis family. You have a fierce beast in your heart that refuses to admit defeat. You will definitely take on this responsibility and do your best to do better than me."
[Theresa] "Those complicated tasks should be handed over to you who have more experience. This is a better choice for both destiny and me."
[Otto] "No, I believe you will take a completely new path with destiny, a path that I cannot embark on."
"Only you can walk on this path, so, granddaughter, go and bravely devote yourself to the cause of the Bishop of Heaven's Mandate!"
"Grandpa believes that you will make Tianming's name resound throughout the solar system, and finally become the ruler of the solar system!"
[Theresa] "That's no reason for me to face that workload. Being the principal of St. Freya's Academy is tiring enough!"
[Cecilia] "Oh, speaking of which, since Theresa has taken over the Mandate of Heaven, I will be in charge of St. Freya's College. At least that's what the report I received said."
[Theresa] "(Already unconscious)"
