"What?!" Aurelia was deeply shocked that her eyes were wide open. "I... I..." she slowly looked at Serena.
"You wanted my help, so I gave you someone who aligned with your wish," Rasmus said as he looked at the priestess pouring tea into his cup. "But before that, I believe Lady Astrea should tell Aurelia about the hidden truth," he pointed out and looked at Astrea.
Astrea nodded, and then Rasmus excused himself since he knew it would be best to let those three have some privacy.
After Aurelia got her lesson from Rasmus, she didn't expect that he would recommend Serena to help her. It was Rasmus's plan all along, to put someone in the Holy Nation other than Daryus.
The ones who stayed behind were Daryus, Serena, and Videl who acted as Serena's paladin. Those three played a huge role in protecting Astrea and Aurelia while Rasmus and the rest gathered information about Nemu and the other emissaries that might be hiding in Central Neva.
