Divine beings should perch high above the clouds, overseeing all creations as the supreme existences.
The so-called "Transcendent" refers to transcending the mundane, and in terms of strength and the nature of life itself, they had long reached the pinnacle that all Transcendents aspire to.
Although the saying "Divine beings are merely powerful Transcendents" is popular among the top Transcendents, whether it's drawing from the Power of Faith or considering the true form of mythical creatures, both sides have ultimately become different species.
As the highest Rank below the Divine Position, the gap between a Seventh Rank Saint and a True Divine is even greater than the gap between a Seventh Rank and a mortal, exponentially so.
Such beings, even if they occasionally manifest in the daily life, are mostly dominated by Divinity, resembling a cold and merciless Judgement will, devoid of any emotional fluctuations, commanding awe.
Yet now, due to the unprecedented contamination by demons, it has become necessary to split off a part of one's consciousness.
Therefore, within this cluster of consciousness from Beatrice, the human aspect far outweighs the Divinity.
This is why, after briefly accessing some of Tiya's memories, she showed such a scene of overwhelming anger.
Besides, the content of the memories itself is also a staggering revelation.
A high and mighty Goddess, especially one who despises men to the bone, symbolizing beauty and purity like Beatrice, has never been in such close contact with vile men, has she?
Even though it was not by her own will and actions, just the thought that the perfect vessel she had chosen had engaged in such treacherous deeds privately nearly drives her to lose her sanity.
And the places touched by that young man, in her view, have also become disgusting and dirty.
It is a kind of cleanliness obsession rooted in the soul.
Moreover, as a high and mighty Divine being, her chosen body eventually being stolen by a contemptible "mistake" is something utterly unforgivable.
If time were not of the essence, she would even wish for the girl in front of her and the vessel to disappear forever from the world, to alleviate the disgust in her heart.
Regrettably, her original form is in very bad shape, even her Divine Kingdom established among the stars suffered unprecedented impacts.
Should she miss this vessel, who knows how long it would take to recommence her plans.
In this moment, the moonlight shadow conjured by Beatrice flickers subtly, its blurry face showing a chill and murderous intent unprecedented.
The malice from the Divine being is enough to destroy a person's spirit.
Even though Tiya possesses the strength of a Fourth Rank as a fallback, in front of the Bright Moon Goddess, she harbors not even a shred of the thought to resist.
From the Goddess's eyes, she senses the other's anger.
Yet, even though she was prepared for this, upon hearing the cold declaration like a Judgement from the other side, a subtle yet intense despair and sorrow emerge in Tiya's heart.
Everyone calls me a mistake.
Everyone can't wait to eliminate me swiftly.
Even the Goddess I have believed in all my life looks at me with loathing.
At this point, her already crumbling heart completely shatters, leaving only coldness and pain spreading through her chest.
"Last words...?" Tiya kneels on the ground, her head deeply bowed, "I have no such words to say."
"As your Believer, no matter what, the entire affair is my fault."
"I have committed an unforgivable sin, violating your teachings and boundaries, hence, whatever the outcome is, I accept it."
"Now I have lost everything, I no longer possess the qualifications to serve and follow you, nor do I have the face to see you again, I only hope that you will carry a heart of kindness and compassion, and forgive my sins in the last moments."
Clearly, ever since Sister Gretel laid it all out for her, Tiya understood the inevitable end laid out for her destiny.
Adding the protracted torment in the Painful Illusion, and the final dream related to Lynn, a naive and immature girl gained monumental growth and transformation overnight.
Or perhaps this is not maturity, but merely remaining cold and despair after seeing the reality.
Watching the humble girl kneeling and begging for forgiveness, Beatrice remains expressionless.
Even though these words are sincere, they failed to move her at all.
Ultimately, there is a fundamental conflict between the two, an impossible coexistence.
Similar to natural enemies, but the difference is more than just heaven and earth.
According to Beatrice's past extreme temperament, she should have eradicated Tiya the moment she accessed her memories.
But considering that this might irreversibly damage the vessel and potentially cause her to take thousands of years' detour after birth, even filled with the intent to kill, she still maintains basic restraint.
At this point, the consciousness of the girl in front has become so faint that with a little guidance, she could completely lose control over this body.
While filled with the desire for revenge and destruction, it will still have to wait until her birth.
Even though that damnable "mistake" would be long gone by then, the vile and filthy young man in her memories is still alive.
She will make him understand the painful price of touching the forbidden.
