"So you dreamed of me?" Ansu looked at Freya in surprise.

Freya shook her head gently. "I couldn't clearly see your specific image in my dreams; it was just a vague, indescribable sense of divinity..."

"You couldn't even see my face, yet you say it was me?" Ansu frowned. "I still think you've mistaken me for someone else."

"No! I would never mistake you!" Freya grabbed Ansu's hands and placed them gently against her chest. "Please listen to the voice of my heart, my Lord Chosen One! I would not joke about such a thing; after all, it concerns the fate of the entire world..."

"Hmm..." Ansu was indeed feeling it.

It was quite large, and very soft...

So much so that from this distance, he couldn't hear a heartbeat at all...

Freya continued to recall her experiences during this period.

"Ever since the holy revelations became more frequent, I have been staying in Benalu City."

"During this time, I have been trying to find the Chosen One among the vast sea of people, even using various methods, but I never found a single clue..."

"But what I didn't expect was!" Freya's emotions grew agitated. "The gods seem to truly be watching over me. Just when I thought I would never find you, my Lord Chosen One, a mysterious note was suddenly delivered before my eyes!"

"This..." Ansu was speechless. Because of that note, he didn't know how much trouble would follow.

"Talun County, Blackstone Town, Elvin Village... that is where I was born." Freya's voice lowered, as if she were very reluctant to speak of it. "My identity is truly quite sensitive. At first, I thought someone was trying to use my identity to threaten me in the shadows..."

After saying this, Freya sighed softly. "It was all because of that note; I couldn't eat or sleep for days... I was afraid my identity would be exposed and implicate those around me, and I was afraid of being expelled by The Church, unable to continue this holy mission..."

"But what I didn't expect was!" Freya's expression became excited once more. "In the few days after receiving that note, the revelations in my dreams suddenly became much clearer! I felt as if I could sense a divine will from the beyond! The Chosen One was drawing closer and closer to me..."

After she finished, Freya gazed at Ansu with burning eyes, clearly having concluded that the person before her was the Chosen One.

"Wait, wait!" Ansu felt there was a problem with her logic. "The Chosen One is getting closer to you, but what does that have to do with me?"

"Even if I were the one who wrote the note to you! I mean, hypothetically, just hypothetically..."

"That still doesn't prove I'm the Chosen One, does it? Is there any necessary connection between the two?"

Ansu looked at the fanatical Freya in confusion, thinking that she was likely just seeing what she wanted to see in her dreams, stubbornly linking the person who sent the note to the Chosen One.

"No!" Freya shook her head decisively. "You, Ansu Morris, are the Chosen One! From the very first moment I saw you in the lecture hall, I knew you were my Lord Chosen One!"

She revealed a look of extreme piety. "My Lord Chosen One, I have finally found you. This time, I will never let you leave my sight again!"

Ansu looked at Freya helplessly, thinking, Are you using a cheat code?

The Chosen One, whom even the all-powerful The Order and Cecilia couldn't find, could be identified by you at a single glance?

He didn't know what to say for a moment. This stubborn, single-minded saint had clearly made up her mind about him, and no matter how he tried to push her away, it didn't seem to work...

"Wait, let me think..." Ansu couldn't help but hold his forehead, his brain racing. In this situation, it was crucial for him to confirm whether Freya was the only one who knew his identity!

"My Lord Chosen One..." Freya murmured to herself, "Why are you unwilling to admit it? Is there some difficulty... or is it that you have not yet awakened the holy mission bestowed upon you by the gods?"

"Freya!" Ansu looked around vigilantly. "Are you sure it's safe here?"

"My Lord Chosen One, it is indeed safe here. Are you worried that someone is monitoring us?" Freya looked at the nervous Ansu in confusion.

Ansu nodded.

Freya suddenly closed her eyes, and Ansu immediately felt her fair skin radiating a moist, holy glow, her entire being exuding a trace of mysterious and sacred power.

"My Lord Chosen One, don't underestimate me!"

A moment later, she slowly opened her eyes and smiled. "I wasn't chosen as a saint by the bishops and the faithful just because of my holy perception; my strength is also quite formidable!"

"Within a one-kilometer radius of the church, there is no abnormal supernatural power, nor is there any trace of black magic. Don't worry, everything here is under my control!"

Ansu felt slightly relieved; after all, the talent of Heart of Holy Radiance-Freya was indeed top-tier.

But it still couldn't compare to the Witch of World Destruction-Cecilia.

Ansu felt that Freya coming to find him today would definitely not be hidden from Cecilia, so he immediately prepared an "emergency plan" in his mind.

He certainly couldn't admit it.

There would be no good outcome from "self-destructing" now, but Ansu did want to keep this line with Freya open; to investigate the Fated Death, the more clues, the better.

"Freya," Ansu asked seriously, "besides you, who else knows about you coming to find me? Does Bishop Paul know?"

Freya shook her head quickly. "They don't know. I decided to do it suddenly after I saw you..."

"Oh..." Ansu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Seeing that Ansu seemed to attach great importance to this, Freya continued to explain.

"I have been staying in Benalu City to find the Chosen One, and the archbishops in The Church know this, but they don't know that I have already found you."

"As for the note, only Bishop Paul knows. He is a trustworthy person; he was the one who brought me to The Church in the first place..."

"That's good, that's good..." Ansu smiled and decided to be partially honest with Freya. "I can tell you now that I did indeed write that note to you."

Freya immediately showed a look of pleasant surprise. Had the Lord Chosen One finally decided to trust her?

"However!" Ansu changed the subject. "I do not admit that I am the Chosen One you speak of. As for that, believe it or not."

Freya froze for a moment, her mind constantly pondering Ansu's words.

The more she thought about it, the more she felt there was a hidden meaning...

Not admitting it ≠ not being it.

Lord Ansu is absolutely the Chosen One! This is beyond doubt, but he has always been unwilling to admit it, which must mean he has his own difficulties...

Freya does not want to make the Chosen One feel troubled. Since he is unwilling to admit it, he must have his reasons.

"It's okay, as long as I believe it, that's enough." Freya revealed a gentle smile and said very sensibly, "Since Lord Ansu does not want to be exposed, then I will definitely keep it a secret for you!"

"Very good." Ansu revealed a meaningful smile. He hadn't expected the little saintess to be so sensible; she even filled in the blanks for him herself.

Maintaining this tacit understanding that only she and he knew about was for the best...

"My current identity is somewhat special." Ansu said to her mysteriously, "I don't want to attract too much attention, so I hope you will keep your mouth shut and not cause any extra trouble for me."

"Mm, mm! Okay!" Freya nodded excitedly.

The secret mission Lord Ansu is currently engaged in must be extremely important! Otherwise, he wouldn't have specifically emphasized these things to her.

Time for a character design illustration.
