Chapter 1483


    Zechariah''s emergency treatmentsted an entire day and night, but he still passed away in bed in


    the end.


    Grand Old Master Yorks presided over Zechariah''s funeral. That day, the vigers raised


    Zechariah’s body and leaned it against a block of wood. They stood around his body chanting


    prayers with the religious leader. Women d in in white clothes danced around Zechariah''s


    body to bid him farewell.


    Judy, Zechariah''s daughter, knelt in front of Zechariah in her mourning garment. She was wailing


    her heart out.


    Grand Old Master Yorks read the eulogy out loud, "Life may be short but it is resplendent like the


    flowers in summer. Zechariah has made great contributions to Doomsday. He''s a hero in


    Doomsday-Mount Pearl’s patron saint. Now, with great reverence, let us bid farewell to our patron


    saint.


    "Today, Mount Pearl has lost its patron saint, but fortunately, Zachariah and his wife have given us


    the clever and bubbly Judy who is not only beautiful but also great at medicine andbat. On


    behalf of all 108 Yorks Stronghold’s vigers, I grant Judy, Zechariah’s one and only descendant,


    the title of ''Mount Pearl Saintess''. We hope that Saintess Judy will carry on


    her father''s selfless dedication and legacy, working hard to keep Mount Pearl safe.”


    The vigers began cheering.


    "Judy, Judy..." A loud and powerful cheer rolled over the hills and echoed throughout the valley.


    It was as if Saintess Judy''s existence was an extension of the patron saint’s legacy. Now that they


    had a saintess, they thought that Mount Pearl would b e safe. However, they had let their guard


    down. A powerful dark force was responsible for Zechariah’s death, and his death was a challenge


    and threat posed against Doomsday.


    Therefore, how could a mere saintess change the course of history?


    Soon, the mes under the tall wooden frame started spreading up, burning Zachariah’s scrawny


    body.


    Judy screamed frantically, "Dad!"


    The vigers pulled her back andforted her. "Let your father die in peace, Judy.”


    Judy let out a heartbreaking cry. "Don''t leave me behind, Dad. What am I supposed to do now that


    you''re gone?"


    "Dad..." Grief was written all over Judy''s face.


    Jay and Angelina looked on with a solemn expression as Zechariah''s body burned. They had


    experienced the pain of parting with their loved ones before, hence they felt deep sympathy for Judy


    at this moment.


    After the funeral, Judy staggered up to Jay and raised her tearful face as she said miserably,


    "Brother Ares, m y father entrusted me to your care before he died. Will you keep your word?"


    Jay replied, “Since I''ve made a promise to your father, I''ll keep my word."


    Angeline stared at Jay in disbelief.

    Judy had racked her brains thinking of ways to marry him. Why was he taking the initiative to


    undertake the responsibility of taking care of Judy when he was supposed to avoid her like the


    gue?


    Angeline wanted to know what Jay nned to do when he said that he was going to take care of


    Judy.


    Judy was overjoyed when she heard Jay saying that h e was willing to take care of her. "Since


    you''ve given m y father your word to take care of me forever, will you marry me, then? You''re the


    only person I can rely on from now on, Brother Jay."


    The vigers started cheering. "Marry Saintess Judy, marry Saintess Judy!”


    Jay,


    Jay was hesitant and in a dilemma.


    They were at Zechariah’s funeral, hence he did not want to send the fragile Judy another heavy


    blow on such an asion.


    However, he had yet to think of a tactful way to reject


    Judy.


    Angeline drew her hand out of Jay''s arms and looked a t him with bitterness in her eyes. She


    stressed every word with a sonorous tone, "Hand me a divorce agreement first before you marry


    her."
