One of them knelt down in front of the mirror.
Upon seeing this, some were surprised, some remained silent, and then another person knelt down with a sorrowful expression, saying, "If this is what Her Highness the Goddess wants, then... I confess my sins."
"...I also plead guilty."
"I plead guilty..."
Sounds, both loud and soft, arose. The people in the divine scripture began to kneel before the mirror, one by one.
But not all the people were willing. The other half stood there, looking puzzled, and said to the kneeling half, "Why are you confessing? We are not the ones who are wrong!"
"That's right, it's clearly Her Highness the Goddess's fault. If it weren't for her, how could we have developed greed?"
"Don't you want to live?"
"Just how terrifying is the Hell of Sinners? Do you really want to go to that place?"
……
"Enough!" one of them shouted.
"Stop talking..." He slowly knelt down. "Whether we are guilty or not, everyone knows the answer."
"Moreover, it was Her Highness the Goddess who gave us our physical dwellings. Even if we are innocent, if she wants us to die, we must accept it devoutly."
The crowd fell silent. The goddess's favoritism seemed to have made them forget themselves and the high and mighty deity, to the point that they subconsciously fantasized that the deity would exonerate them.
……
Amidst the turmoil and anguish, miraculously, the crowd that had just vehemently opposed the movement suddenly knelt down one by one. Looking at the figures below the stage, Yun Qingyi felt as if someone was missing.
But she didn't think about it too much because the next step was about to begin.
Just as she was about to speak, she felt that gaze, which seemed to have been fixed on her all along.
From the moment she woke up, she had been keenly aware that this gaze had been watching her.
Although she had forgotten who she was, she guessed that the look in her eyes was most likely related to the goddess they were talking about, and that the reason she had lost her memory here was probably also related to her.
Thinking of this, Yun Qingyi lowered her eyes and ignored that gaze.
The most urgent task is to complete this trial.
Thinking this, Yun Qingyi raised her head slightly and looked down at the crowd below the stage. Although they had all confessed, the incense stick's time had not yet been up, and they still had the right to change their minds and continue to raise questions.
Surprisingly, although most of them looked resentful, none of them raised any further questions.
It seemed that no matter what charges Yun Qingyi brought up, they would plead guilty.
Upon seeing this, Yun Qingyi's eyes flickered slightly, and she had a bad feeling.
If they are tried like this, what will the outcome be?
As my thoughts raced through my mind, the time it takes for an incense stick to burn was up.
Almost simultaneously, the mirror emitted an even more dazzling stream of light, making the galaxy within the divine scripture even more brilliant...
Soon, several words appeared in the giant mirror: Please, Judge, conduct the final judgment.
But at this moment, Yun Qingyi did not make a move, and the crowd below the stage looked on in confusion, not understanding why she had won but was not being put on trial.
Even the distant sky echoed with that melodious, clear voice: "Judges, why do you delay in sentencing? Once you have convicted these sinners, you will have won."
Yun Qingyi naturally recognized the voice as that of the Ice Soul Goddess they had spoken of, their Goddess.
But she detected a hint of seduction in his voice.
win?
She looked down at the crowd below the stage. Now that she stood on the high platform, she could take in everyone. With just a casual use of the mirror's power, these people would be reduced to ashes.
Yun Qingyi reviewed the trial; it seemed like a situation where victory was assured.
But... to win...
Is winning what she wants? In just a moment, a cold glint flashed in Yun Qingyi's eyes.
It turned out that he was waiting for her here.
