"Bastard. You can't, you can't do this."
Hearing the mosquito-soft muttering of the Maiden before him, Ansu tilted his head and asked with feigned curiosity, "What did I do?"
His appearance was highly deceptive: his azure eyes were clear and pure, his ash-white hair draped over his shoulders, paired with a pure white robe and a light shirt.
As the boy slightly tilted his head, soft sunlight fell over his delicate profile, making him seem as flawless and clean as white jade.
He really did look like an innocent boy.
But Ashley knew that the boy before her was a genuine demon spawn.
This bastard was still pretending!
The more normal and sunny Ansu seemed, the more terrified Ashley became.
She knew these borderland-born people too well. The more normal they seemed on the surface, the more deranged they were in private.
Ashley became even more certain—utterly convinced—that this brat was hiding something huge.
How could someone who had devised Nezha's Turbulent Sea Stream possibly be so upright and honorable?
For all she knew, he looked like a refined gentleman now, but the moment she signed the authorization, he would transform into a lust-crazed fiend!
The egg-kicking streaker, the pee-holding glasses guy, the erotic crape myrtle guy—those were the true faces of those three borderland-born people!
"Are you signing this authorization or not?" Ansu asked steadily. "The exam is about to begin, Examiner Ashley."
Ashley lowered her head slightly and stared at the authorization form.
Persistence, courage, wisdom—this was not merely an assessment, but a trial to surpass oneself.
The sole standard for a perfect score was defeating yourself.
Those two lines were the Exam Instructions on the authorization form.
She felt as though she had returned to seven years ago. Back then, she had only been an examinee. Back then, she had come to the examination hall the same way and stared at those same two lines, filled with the same nervousness and worry.
Ashley understood now. These borderland people's exams truly were trials—a trial for the proctors!
"You, that sort of thing..."
Ashley bit her cherry-like lips, her cheeks crimson. She glared viciously at Ansu. "That sort of thing you want to do to me—I already know all about it."
"What sort of thing?"
Ansu tilted his head to the other side and answered calmly.
This bastard actually wanted her, a girl, to say that sort of thing herself.
"Th-this..." Ashley's momentum gradually weakened. "That... shameless sort of thing."
"Shameless?"
Ansu continued, his voice clean and natural. "What shameless thing? Please use your wisdom to tell me what shameless thing I intend to do to you—you're rather overconfident in yourself, aren't you?"
You...!
Ashley clenched her silver teeth.
"Your plan, those spell combinations of yours, every one of your intentions—I've already seen through them all."
Ashley glared fiercely at Ansu, like an enraged little lion. Gathering her courage, she grew almost hysterical. "Borderland-born, I'm not an idiot!"
These lowly borderland-born people!
They had been forced to streak naked in public, brutally kicked in the balls, and forced into a pee-holding contest when the other side had already peed. They were all people who acted proper on the outside while being vile and lowly inside. And now, seeing Ansu still pretending to be innocent, Ashley was completely enraged.
Everyone knew it in their hearts.
What was this bastard still pretending for? He was practically insulting her intelligence!
Her shame had accumulated to its limit and was gradually turning into anger.
Ashley's pride would no longer allow her to endure this humiliation.
Fine. She would expose him right here, before she signed the authorization, and reveal his dark, evil plan.
Right here!
She would expose his hypocritical face and leave him nowhere to hide!
She would reveal Ansu's dark side beneath the light of day.
Under the surveillance of the Scales of Order, Ashley said coldly, "Your spell combinations look normal, but they all conceal the filthiest of thoughts."
"For example?" Ansu studied Ashley's expression, finding it quite interesting. "My spell combinations are perfectly normal. Can you tell me what the problem is?"
This brat really had thick skin. Even now, he was still trying to argue.
Ashley snorted coldly in her heart.
But I've already seen through your conspiracy.
You borderland-born people only surpassed yourselves in the realm of having no bottom line.
But when it came to wisdom alone, you couldn't defeat me!
"For example, Interference Resonance."
"What's wrong with Interference Resonance?" Ansu's gaze narrowed slightly. A flicker of confusion passed through his eyes, but calm quickly concealed it. "It's only used to interfere with the frequency of the opponent's wand."
"Hmph."
Ashley caught that slight wavering from Ansu and gave a soft, cold snort. "Your true purpose is to manipulate the enemy's wand and make it vibrate continuously, because you've already shoved your wand into that place."
"You intend to use those vibrations to defeat me with this move in front of everyone!"
Ansu took a small step back, shook his head, and denied it righteously. "I have never harbored such dark thoughts."
The harder he tried to deny it, the more it proved she was right.
A faint thrill of satisfaction rose in Ashley's heart. After being humiliated so many times, she could finally take revenge.
"And Great Tremor."
Ashley pressed on, seizing the advantage. "This spell appears to create rippling shockwaves, but it's actually meant to increase the frequency of the wand's vibrations!"
"What kind of blasphemy is this?"
Ansu's pupils flickered slightly. He pressed his lips together, but his expression remained calm.
"I, Ansu, have never thought of such filthy things. I simply cannot imagine what kind of shameless person could devise such dark tricks."
Although he still looked so composed, he was probably sweating profusely inside.
She had won this battle of wits.
A smile hung on Ashley's lips. The more she spoke, the more excited she became, and the pleasure of settling old scores made her cheeks more and more flushed.
She had finally exposed this guy's conspiracy!
"And Sensory Blessing."
"What did Sensory Blessing do to you?" Ansu took another step back, a hint of fear appearing in his azure eyes. "That is the sacred holy light of Divine Blessing."
For every step Ansu retreated, Ashley advanced aggressively. Her flushed, excited face was already right in front of the boy's.
"You want to use Holy Light Blessing to do that kind of filthy thing."
With a smile at the corner of her lips, Ashley mercilessly exposed Ansu's conspiracy.
"With every sensation doubled, the body will become extremely sensitive. Under Sensory Blessing, I suppose we'll soon turn into fountains!"
Third floor of the hall.
The priests stared at the Magic Screen in silence.
Priest Percy stared at his junior sister with an expression like death.
His heart, which had just been hardened by the corpses, was being hammered hard again.
"What on earth is she talking about?!"
