Chapter 676: Chapter 276: Kind-Hearted from a Young Age, Submissive and Not Good with Words_3
"Don’t let the high-level manipulation influence you; they can only interpret the Divine Decree, not represent its true meaning."
Wayne told this to Hefei, and to Veronica as well, saying that the Windsor Magic Department being full of double agents isn’t that bad, actually. Freedom of belief is quite nice; being obsessed with religion only leads people into the peril of ignorance and blind obedience.
Plus, those with Dragon Blood aren’t exactly known for their intelligence.
"Teacher, I’m sorry I don’t respect the Goddess, but it’s someone like me who received the Goddess’s approval and became the heir to the God-chosen Knight..."
"And not just one Goddess has approved of me!"
"..."x4
The study fell silent, the facts were laid before them, and they needed time to think.
"Teacher, I’m sorry to speak out of turn one last time, but your husband being the Dark Knight is actually a good thing."
Wayne pulled out the twisted logic he had used on Veronica: "Think about it, you’ve single-handedly suppressed the Dark Knight, making him kneel or fly at your command. How is this not a great victory for the Naturalism Church? You have made enormous contributions to the Church."
Could it also be interpreted this way?x2
Veronica’s head tilted, considering this, she could also count as having suppressed the Death Knight.
Hefei sighed, "I’m a bit tired today, let’s leave it at that, Austin, don’t come to me tonight, I want some quiet time on my own."
Austin nodded, "Give me half an hour, I still have some things to discuss with Wayne."
"Bastard, can’t you understand what I’m saying?" Hefei left angrily, and on her way out, she dragged Veronica with her.
This was a high-level game, and their moral integrity was too great for them to be present.
Megan arrived outside the study and changed her position to continue eavesdropping.
Wayne stood up from the sofa and went to the window, looking out at the spacious lawn and the small woods in the distance.
With his back to Austin, he said, "Today I’ll let you off, but next time there’s a need, I’ll bring up the matter of you threatening the heir with your scandalous relationships."
Only one document had been used, which Veronica had torn up, but it was not a big issue, there was another one, even more explosive.
As long as he was with the Randao Family for one day, Austin could forget about clearing his name.
That’s that, and Austin should be thanking him!
Austin indeed owed thanks; if Wayne hadn’t shown up tonight, the consequences would have been unthinkable. Being despised and disliked by Hefei was already the best outcome.
What a trivial matter; when they first met, Hefei’s attitude towards him was nothing but dislike and disdain, and look at them now, with children of their own.
"I’m very curious, Megan likes you so much, allows you to touch without returning the favor, aren’t you going to give her an explanation?"
Wayne, changing the subject out of curiosity about the previous generation’s gossip, and knowing Megan could hear, raised his voice: "She deliberately disguised herself as the teacher, abandoning her self just to suit you, yet you ignored her out of a selfish loyalty, you’re too cold-blooded, you’re hurting her all the time."
Go ahead, go to sleep, please.
Make an example for the heir, he really needs an old reprobate as a role model!
"Don’t talk nonsense, Megan doesn’t have those kind of feelings for me..."
Austin’s words trailed off; maybe because he was considering Megan’s feelings, or perhaps he didn’t want to delve further into the topic, and just skipped it: "Monica is not the Goddess’s Envoy, I saw it on my way back."
"Hmm, I saw it too."
Wayne looked out the window, a black cat was rolling in the bushes, almost blending into the darkness; if not for his sharp eyes, he would have never noticed it.
"Are you sure you killed the Divine Envoy?"
"Sure."
Wayne nodded, then said, "The Divine Envoy is dead, and Monica is still here; it doesn’t prove she isn’t the Divine Envoy, the Goddess can have many Envoys."
Similarly, there can be many Goddesses!
Monica being an Envoy of the Dark Goddess had always been Austin’s assumption, without any evidence pointing to its true identity.
This topic was bound to have no further discussion; if Austin could pry open the black cat’s mouth, he would have already put it into a hundred and eight kinds of interrogation poses.
"Allen is dead."
"..."
Wayne looked clueless; who was Allen and why had he suddenly died?
As Wayne arrived late, he was unaware of Allen’s storyline; only after Austin explained did he realize who this unlucky person was.
"Tsk, tsk, the Divine Envoy really broke its heart trying to awaken you."
"Allen was one of the three deputy directors of the Magic Department, entrusted with watching over the mist; he can’t just die casually, we must notify the Queen promptly."
Austin discussed the serious responsibility that Allen held, mentioning that it couldn’t drag on too long and the Queen must be informed as soon as possible so that another Legendary Mage could take over Allen’s duties.
"How do you plan to inform the Queen, during a secret rendezvous?" Wayne’s eyes lit up.
"I can’t possibly inform the Queen, it’s hard to explain, it’s more fitting to task the Princess with it."
Austin, ignoring Wayne’s framing, frankly said, "Gain control of the Princess quickly so she finds a way to tell the Queen. As long as you dissociate Allen’s death from the Randao Family, any explanation will do."
"It won’t be quick, find someone else."
Wayne shook his head, "No matter what, she informed Philark, without her unnecessary meddling, the teacher and Veronica would have definitely been hurt; I owe her a favor and will not repay kindness with malice."
Wayne estimated the time, currently he was studying the body of the Dark Church’s Holy Maiden, Anastasia, as well as the already polluted Celeste, both of them excellent subjects for reverse engineering experiments.
Then it was Austin’s turn with the Forgotten prepared at the secret base.
Experiments must be conducted step by step; without multiple pieces of data to summarize experience, a single mistake could turn Hefei and Veronica into another Saina.
Wayne had scheduled the surgery for the Princess after the Forgotten, prioritizing repayment of the favor and keeping it a secret, granting her a higher form of life evolution, while preserving her self.
