Chapter 675: Chapter 276: Kind-Hearted from a Young Age, Submissive and Not Good with Words_2

Faith conflicts were an obstacle that the couple could not circumvent. To break the deadlock, there was only one possibility, to eradicate all faiths on the God-chosen Continent.

Darkness, therefore, came knocking at the door. The Dark Goddess approved of Austin’s ambitions, allowed him to use Twilight Deadlock, and played a dark little game with him concerning pain curses.

It later proved that the so-called game was essentially the Dark Goddess’s training. Austin had already become a Dark Knight by then.

"The Death Knight appeared in Lundan, precisely when the Hell’s familiars descended, and a traitor emerged within the Magic Department, I followed the Queen’s orders and formed an alliance with the Death Knight..."

"The Ancient Silver Coin of Death must not be lost, otherwise, I will become a true Dark Knight, hence I had Megan swallow it, to touch the Ancient Silver Coin through bodily contact with her..."

"Attacking the base of the Naturalism Church was instigated by the Death Proxy ’Observer’ Grew, it was the price I paid for obtaining the Ancient Silver Coin."

Austin confessed everything, with no attempt at concealment.

Hefei and Veronica gaped in shock at Austin’s crazy idea of uprooting all faiths on the God-chosen Continent.

For you, I am willing to be the enemy of the entire world!

Veronica thought it was very cool, imagining herself in the scenario, firmly believing that Wayne would do the same for her.

"You must be crazy!"

Hefei closed her eyes and shook her head, "Even if everything you did was for me, a Dark Knight is destined to be the enemy of The Church; I will have Megan prepare the divorce papers..."

She was interrupted mid-sentence when her children took her hands from both sides.

Hefei’s expression changed, retracting her previous words to suggest separation instead; they could live next door to each other in the future and not visit unless necessary.

Veronica frowned deeply, giving Wayne a fierce glance. He, full of helplessness, reluctantly spoke against his conscience, "Veronica, if it were you, I wouldn’t hesitate to eradicate all faiths on the God-chosen Continent, even the gods themselves..."

"Stop talking nonsense!"

Hefei cut in directly, glanced at her children on each side, then at Austin who quietly awaited judgment. After a long contemplation, still unable to decide, she chose silence is golden.

Veronica was not satisfied with this outcome, glaring at Wayne again.

It pained Wayne deeply. He took Hefei’s hand and said, "Teacher, do you remember the night you first arrived in Lundan and encountered the Death Knight?"

"What about it?"

"The Dark Knight was also there."

Wayne said with a sigh, "That night, the Death Knight and the Dark Knight met for the first time. The former Holy Maiden Flora used Divine Arts to mimic your thought pattern, launching an attack on both knights at the same time."

"Fearing you might get hurt, I delayed the Dark Knight’s pursuit. The Dark Knight, much like me, we wrestled with each other until the Dark Knight realized the impersonator was Flora, and then he withdrew."

Hefei was visibly moved, but soon scoffed. It was right to be good to one’s wife; otherwise, they would have divorced by now.

"Besides, if you can accept that I am the Death Knight, why can’t you accept that he is a Dark Knight?"

"It’s not the same. You haven’t done anything to the Naturalism Church, but he almost wiped out all the church elites in Windsor." Hefei said with an ugly expression.

"No, I also killed many from the Naturalism Church, such as Flora, she died by my hand."

"..."x2

Hefei looked at Wayne in shock, and Veronica covered her mouth in disbelief. Flora, the former Holy Maiden who once communicated with the Goddess and conveyed the Divine Decree, was no more.

"She shouldn’t have attacked the teacher; I had been enduring her for a long time."

"Good boy, after all is said and done, you’re still the best."

Hefei joyfully hugged Wayne, finding comfort in his actions unlike the Dark Knight, which was discomforting.

Austin rolled his eyes in exasperation. The Death Knight killed the Holy Maiden and the High Priest didn’t make a sound, while the Dark Knight killed a few priests, and the High Priest clamored for battle and divorce. Wasn’t this a ridiculous double standard? Was reason even a thing anymore?

Veronica glared at Wayne fiercely. I told you to smooth things over, not to boast about yourself. Do you realize that the better you appear, the worse that scoundrel looks?

Don’t rush, this is just the beginning!

Wayne extricated himself from the embrace and sat beside Veronica. He had long complained, when the kids grow up, stop cuddling and hugging all the time, maintaining some distance.

"I could kill Flora because of my status as the heir to the Naturalist Knight; I made a deal with the Pope, and no one would investigate Flora’s death..."

Saying this, Wayne narrated the situation in the Misty Hidden Forest.

Learning that Otilia died at the hands of her teacher, both Hefei and Veronica struggled to accept it, especially Veronica. Her lifelong nemesis Otilia was dead, and this revelation brought her no joy but only touched a sore spot in her heart.

"I didn’t want to mention this, but Teacher, given your position on Austin..."

Wayne weighed his words carefully, hesitating for a long time, ultimately not wanting to praise Austin, and slowly said, "The Church’s hierarchy is like that; I won’t let Veronica join The Church, and if she does, I will do everything to pull her out of the vortex."

After playing several emotional cards, Hefei’s feelings were unknown, but Veronica was overjoyed, blushing as she sat on the couch, clenching her fists secretly elated.

More of this, please.

"Moreover, The Church’s high ranks are one thing, but the Goddess’s thoughts are another."

Wayne explained, "The Icebound Continent holds the seal of the Ancient God’s Kin, guarded in turns by the Natural, Sun, Moonlight, Dark, and Death God-chosen. The Dark Envoy requested the Dark Knight to assist on the Icebound Continent, indicating that the five faiths are not entirely incompatible; there is a compromise for mutual benefit."

"Teacher, if you truly care about faith, you should follow the original intent of faith and see how the Nature Goddess treats the Dark Goddess..."
