Secret Room, Utterly Wicked

There was no one in the room, only a piece of clothing thrown on the floor.

"Did the person disappear?"

At that moment, footsteps sounded from behind. Douglas hurried over!

"Who are you people?"

"Hard, you're hurt!"

"Where's Adeline? What did you do to her?"

Yun Feiyang had no time to deal with him!

"Little White, find him!"

The culprit could not have gone far in such a short time. A Teleportation Array was impossible as well, since setting one up took time.

Little White jumped down from Yun Feiyang's shoulder and began sniffing around.

Hard pleaded pitifully, "Douglas, save me!"

"Who are you? What did you do to Hard?"

"And you, Mirajane. You brought people into my Church. Don't you owe me an explanation?"

Yun Feiyang glanced at Douglas and said flatly, "I'm a Mage, commissioned by the Village Chief to investigate what happened five years ago!"

Douglas's expression changed drastically!

Sure enough, this bastard was involved too!

"What happened five years ago? I don't know what you're talking about. You aren't welcome here. Leave immediately!"

"Woof woof woof~~"

Little White had found something and barked at a cabinet.

"Here?"

"Stop, you—"

Too late. Yun Feiyang kicked the cabinet open, revealing a passageway.

"There's something else hidden here!"

Ignoring the ugly expressions on their faces, Yun Feiyang took Mirajane's hand and walked inside.

The passage led downward until they reached a basement.

"Ahh~~"

Mirajane let out a frightened scream and hid in Yun Feiyang's arms, not daring to look.

Adeline lay on the floor. Her clothes had been stripped off, and two iron rods had pierced through her body from below. She was dead beyond all doubt!

More importantly, the Secret Room was filled with all kinds of torture devices, specifically meant for women. They were obscenely depraved!

Rage surged into Yun Feiyang's heart, nearly driving him berserk on the spot!

He turned and glared furiously at the two who had followed them down. "Isn't this supposed to be a holy Church? Why is there a place like this?"

"What exactly did you do to Kathy five years ago? Speak!"

Yun Feiyang could already imagine how Kathy had been tortured here five years ago. Otherwise, she would never have suddenly gone mad, much less killed herself!

That was what made it so infuriating. This was supposed to be a holy Church, yet they had been committing such monstrous acts in secret!

It was absolutely unforgivable!

Douglas and Hard went pale at the sight of Adeline's corpse, only coming back to their senses amid Yun Feiyang's roar.

"I..."

Douglas stepped in front of Hard and said, "Why would there be a place like this? To be honest, I don't know either!"

"Could Adeline have done this? Then she truly was disgraceful. The Lord will punish her!"

"And look, she has already received the punishment she deserved!"

"As for what you said about five years ago, about Kathy, I truly know nothing. It has nothing to do with the Church."

What a sanctimonious old bastard!

Mirajane cursed, "Douglas, I really misjudged you! You fooled everyone! You disgusting bastard!"

"Mirajane, you truly misunderstand. But I will forgive you, and the Lord will bless you as well!"

"You..."

Yun Feiyang stopped Mirajane and said, "Are you sure you still want to hide it? I'm not afraid to tell you—I've fought that Demon before. He's a Mage too, and dealing with you would be effortless for him!"

"You'd better think carefully. Right now, I'm the only one capable of saving you!"

"If you keep trying to cover things up, I'll stand by and do nothing. I'll let that vengeful Demon torture you properly. I'm sure he'd be more than happy to do it!"

Hard's face changed drastically at those words. He was just about to speak when Douglas stopped him again.

"No matter how powerful the Demon is, he cannot match the omnipotent Lord. This is a Church. He will not be allowed to run wild here!"

"You two, please leave. I can overlook your rudeness tonight."

Yun Feiyang stared at Douglas, who met his gaze without the slightest fear.

"Fine. I hope you won't regret this decision!"

"Let's go!"

"But..."

"Come on, we'll talk outside!"

Seeing the two of them actually leave, Douglas finally let out a heavy sigh of relief!

"Priest, are we really not going to seek help from that Mage? What if..."

"Shut up! If the villagers find out what we've done, do you think they'll let us off?"

"But that demon... no, Steve won't let this go!"

"It's fine. He can't do anything to me!"

After leaving the Church, Mirajane said furiously, "Why did you leave? Scum like that should be chopped to death to vent our anger!"

"No. We shouldn't be the ones to take this revenge."

It was now basically certain that Kathy had suffered endless torment in the Church back then, and that Steve had failed in his revenge, fallen off a cliff, survived the catastrophe, learned some skills, and returned to take revenge.

"You want Steve to do it himself? But he's already gone mad. Parker was obviously innocent, yet he still killed him. Who knows whether he'll drag other people into this?"

"It's fine. Once he deals with Douglas and Hard, it won't be too late for me to deal with him. As long as we keep an eye on those two, he'll definitely show up!"

"Fine, then what do we do now?"

"Of course, we go back and sleep. Steve won't come again tonight!"

Yun Feiyang stayed the night at Mirajane's house.

Of course, don't even think about sleeping together.

After breakfast the next morning, the two returned to the Church, only to find its doors open, with quite a few believers coming and going.

"Why did they suddenly open it?"

Yun Feiyang sneered. "They're scared. Scared Steve will come for them!"

"Then what do we do? Won't Steve be too afraid to come now?"

"Hard to say. Let's keep watching for now."

Yun Feiyang looked around and noticed that an inn was just right, with its second floor directly facing the Church.

"Come on, let's rent a room!"

"What?!"

Mirajane crossed her arms over her chest and said warily, "Don't even think about it! I'm not that kind of casual woman!"

"What are you fantasizing about? Do you think I'd be interested in a washboard like you?"

"Bastard, go die!"

As they entered the inn, Yun Feiyang said, "Boss, one room on the second floor."

"Oho~ Isn't this Mirajane? Why are you getting worse and worse? Renting a room with a man at such a young age—how can you face the dead..."

"Shut up! Believe it or not, I'll beat you up!"

"Fine. If you want to degrade yourself, that's your business."

Amid Mirajane's resentment, the two entered the room.

"It's all your fault! You got me misunderstood!"

"It's fine. Your reputation is already awful anyway. It can't get much worse."

"Hey~ Do you really want to fight?"

Yun Feiyang looked at her disdainfully. "Can you beat me?"

"I..."

Mirajane was furious. "Just you wait! Once I become a Mage, I'll make you pay!"

"Really? I'm so scared!"

What an awful guy!

"Since there's nothing to do right now, I'll teach you some Magic."

Mirajane was overjoyed. "Really?"

"No. I'll teach you the proper positions for that kind of thing between a man and a woman."

With a wicked grin, Yun Feiyang advanced toward Mirajane. "Little beauty, you can't run!"

Mirajane's expression changed drastically. "You... what are you trying to do?"

"A lone man and woman alone in a room—what do you think?"

"Don't come over!"

"You big pervert, I'll fight you!"
