Chapter 762: Chapter 471: You Can’t Spoil Bratty Kids!

But no matter how much Aivia showed her affection for Alice, she never revealed any information indicating she was Baris.

Thinking of this, Shen Sui had already opened the Dueling Device.

"Eh? What are you planning to do?" Vivian saw Shen Sui’s actions and hurriedly asked.

"I’m going to take a look at the Dawn Continent." Shen Sui said seriously, "To check out Aivia and identify personally."

This method was the fastest way to confirm the situation.

In the game, Shen Sui’s strategy character had only Baris who hadn’t returned yet in the first playthrough, and now faced with the possible information, how could he calmly handle it.

"Don’t rush." Vivian stopped Shen Sui.

Feeling Shen Sui’s puzzled expression, she smiled and said, "If Aivia is really the Candlelight Illusion, whether she is currently Baris or not, having already contacted Alice, she probably knows you’ve awakened. In that situation, Baris didn’t choose to show herself, she must have her own ideas. We don’t need to reveal Baris directly, right?"

If a friend is acting, even if you see through it, directly exposing them is too disrespectful.

Vivian’s idea is to cooperate with Baris’s performance and then secretly investigate Baris’s current situation.

"Looks like this time Alice has no choice but to go to the War God Temple." Vivian said.

Shen Sui still felt directly finding Aivia was more efficient and quick, but what Vivian said wasn’t unreasonable.

Emotional interactions are about mutual respect.

If Aivia really is Baris, then she has worked hard for a thousand years to climb to the position of Daylight Pope, she must have her own ideas.

He indeed is so powerful that he can effortlessly sweep away all the difficulties Baris faces, but really doing so would be very disrespectful to Baris’s efforts.

Not everyone can accept the opportunity to lay flat and win without any psychological burden.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many industry bigwigs saying "if I fail, I’ll go back to inheriting the family business."

However, all of this is premised on Baris being in a safe state now.

Shen Sui hopes Aivia is Baris, at least this way, he can be sure Baris is very safe.

With this thought in mind, Shen Sui opened the Dueling Device and clicked on Alice’s screen.

After sending off Aivia, Alice finally began to seriously perform the Pope’s duties.

And the bishops of the Master of Thunder Church finally had the chance to tell Alice about the matters related to the Pope’s ceremony.

When Alice saw the densely packed affairs at the Pope’s ceremony, she suddenly became overwhelmed.

So Alice quickly became the boss who throws everything at the bishops.

Though the bishops saw such a rebellious Pope, they might want to cut Alice into pieces, considering she is the Divinely Selected Pope, they rationally abandoned this idea.

If Alice gets upset and complains to the Master of Thunder, they won’t be able to handle the consequences.

Don’t think that Gods should always be high above.

Historically, quite a few priests were favored by Gods, and would often complain to them, successfully inviting divine backing.

Seeing that Alice was preparing matters related to the Pope’s ceremony, Shen Sui secretly rejoiced.

During the Pope’s ceremony, Alice would summon the Master of Thunder.

For Alice, possessing the Thunderbolt Certificate, summoning the Master of Thunder was not exactly a difficult task.

But the problem arises after summoning the Master of Thunder.

Gods can clearly inspect the souls of believers, knowing everything they know.

This is an important measure of believers’ piety.

After all, if even the Pope is not very devout to the Gods, it would be a huge joke.

The Thunderbolt Certificate is the best emblem of faith.

Therefore, Alice, who casually obtained the Thunderbolt Certificate through clever language, would not show flaws in faith even if she harbors resentment towards the Master of Thunder.

But if she doesn’t find a way to avoid the Master of Thunder’s soul inspection, she will still be exposed.

Even a strong knight like Baris, with unwavering will, could not shield from divine inspection, learned about the Twilight of the Gods ahead from the Daylight, let alone the not-as-strong Alice.

Previously in the seaside city, Alice avoided the descending Master of Thunder’s inspection completely because Shen Sui intervened.

Fortunately, Shen Sui glanced at the Dueling Device, otherwise Alice would have her identity stripped by the Master of Thunder.

Things would be troublesome then.

After all, Shen Sui plans to keep Master of Thunder alive so that Alice can continue her mayhem and doesn’t want to kill the Master of Thunder too soon.

With the Master of Thunder still alive, Alice can at least stay in the Roland Empire, carrying out actions against the Master of Thunder and his church.

If the Master of Thunder dies, who knows where Alice would wild out, doing outrageous things.

In a sense, resolving the Master of Thunder Church is like extracurricular homework left for Alice by Shen Sui.

What’s the purpose of extracurricular homework?

Enhancing children’s abilities.

Preventing kids from running around playing.

See, on Alice, doesn’t the Master of Thunder Church’s role emulate exactly this?

As Shen Sui thought, he input commands to Alice, applying a skill buff layer.

From this moment on, Alice appears in the Master of Thunder’s eyes as a truly devout follower.

After finishing this, Shen Sui entered commands again.

"Eh? You want me to go to the War God Temple too?" Alice looked at him in surprise.

Claude should know my plan.

"Yes, help me verify Aivia’s identity."

"Aivia?" Alice wondered, "Is there a problem with her identity?"

Shen Sui chose not to answer.

He feared this quirky girl would start overthinking again after he answered.

You did not respond.

Alice pondered for a few seconds.

Could it be... Claude has a crush on Aivia?

Should I bring some aphrodisiacs?

But can Claude in soul form accomplish it?

Shen Sui’s mouth twitched slightly.

Shen Sui removed the buff from Alice.

Damn, this cheeky kid can’t be spoiled.

Need to give you a set of Math Olympiad Papers.
