Sylph Decides to Accept Treatment (4)
Candice's beautiful eyes gleamed with an eerie light; she seemed excited about the situation, almost as if she were having an affair.
Strange quirks.
"I'm not married, so it doesn't count as having an affair... But you're mine," Qin Chu emphasized.
Candice was very satisfied with this answer, and she lightly pecked Qin Chu's lips. "When does Lord Horus plan to transform me from a girl into a real woman?"
A seductive voice, a voluptuous body in her arms.
As expected of Succubus, every move she made possessed a captivating charm that could drive anyone mad.
However, this situation did not last long. Candice's expression gradually became serious. She knew that Lord Horus must have come to see her with important matters to discuss, so she was not in a hurry.
She enjoys this feeling; anticipation and waiting are also a kind of happiness.
Besides, she has already received so much from Lord Horus, she doesn't ask for more.
She longs for a world at peace.
After everything is settled, I can have the happiest night with Lord Horus.
Moreover, she also had something very important to ask Lord Horus:
"What exactly is that Crimson?"
"A deity in the Void, one of the beings who binds this world with shackles," Qin Chu replied simply.
Candice was somewhat taken aback. "After learning that the Hero and Horus were one and the same, I thought it was all a lie..."
"While there were deceptions in some aspects, at least this one wasn't." Qin Chu sighed helplessly, "Honestly, I also hope that there aren't so many chaotic things in the Void trying to spy on this world."
He didn't care what the world became; the fact that he was the primary target of their spying made Qin Chu anything but happy.
"However, they cannot descend for the time being, so there's no need to worry in the short term."
Qin Chu didn't know exactly how long this period of time would take.
But he had a premonition that the goddess in the Void Prison might not be able to hold out for long.
After a brief pause, Qin Chu composed himself and asked, "Candice, how's the situation with Ramon?"
When it came to serious matters, Candice's alluring expression gradually faded. "Ramon has been very active lately."
"Because of his achievement in killing Benson, Ramon gained a large number of Magic Creature. On the one hand, he arranged for the Magic Creature to attack the border between humans and Magic Creature. On the other hand, he personally led experts into the territory of the three Magic Creature princesses to seal off the entire territory and, together with his sister, captured Ronald."
"However, the results haven't been very good. Although they've found Ronald's trail, they haven't been able to capture Ronald. Recently, Ramon has been extremely stressed out."
Candice's tone was somewhat sarcastic.
That guy is really a piece of trash.
Without Lord Horus's assistance, he would be nothing.
Even with Lord Horus providing him with ample intelligence, this guy still couldn't capture Ronald.
"Then, let's tell him another piece of information."
Qin Chu smiled leisurely and said, "He couldn't catch Ronald because there's very likely another thief with Ronald."
"Eileen, one of the Twin Thieves in the Hero's Party!"
The two sisters, Eileen Aili, were always inseparable.
But this time, they parted ways.
Aili heads to the Imperial City, while Eileen has important business to attend to.
Furthermore, Qin Chu found it unbelievable that Ronald could withstand the combined attacks of Ramon and the Magic Creature Princess for so long.
Ronald is quite capable, but he can't do that.
Based on the conversations among the five members of the Hero's Party, Ekaterina deduced that Eileen, at the request of Rosweisse, went to support Ronald, and this is very likely true.
"Tell Ramon that you have your intelligence source and want to make a deal with him."
"Ronald must be captured alive, and all Ronald belongings must be kept. Then trade Ronald to me, and I will kill him. The reputation will still Ramon to Ronald," Qin Chu.
"If he agrees, inform Ramon about Eileen's existence. Knowing there's a thief will allow them to take targeted action, making it much easier to capture Ronald. If he disagrees or goes back on his word, tell him that I will no longer provide him with any information and will cooperate with the other princes."
"Of course, he can give Ronald a proper welcome first."
Although it's possible to eliminate these people one by one with the help of Ramon.
But in the end, it's still not as satisfying as solving it yourself.
In particular, Ronald also possesses a fragment of Jello's Soul Fragment.
Speaking of which, where did Rosweisse get the information? Ekaterina said that Rosweisse knew the location of another Soul Fragment.
This kind of information cannot be found in books.
Especially recently, Rosweisse has been confined to the Holy Church and has had no opportunity to go out and investigate.
Could it be that someone deliberately leaked this information to Rosweisse?
If that's the case, then that guy's goal should also be to resurrect Jello. Could it be the same person who provided the Resurrection Spell to Rosweisse?
However, it's hard to imagine anyone other than the members of the Hero's Party who felt such deep affection for Jello.
Furthermore, knowing such secrets, and even the Resurrection Spell, must mean he's incredibly powerful. So why didn't he collect all the Soul Fragment himself? What was he afraid of?
Chapter Three is presented here.
Chapter 184 Sylph Decides to Accept Treatment (4)
He had only intended to assign Candice a task, but unexpectedly, a sudden flash of inspiration arose, giving rise to even more questions.
The mysterious person who gave the Resurrection Spell scroll to Rosweisse.
The mysterious person who revealed the location of the Soul Fragment to Rosweisse...
This person is so mysterious, almost eerie, that even Rosweisse couldn't see through him; his strength is probably greater than that of the Saintess.
But why didn't he go find those Soul Fragment himself? Could it be that there's something wrong with those Soul Fragment, or that they possess some kind of power that terrifies him, making him afraid to touch them or even get close to them?
But that Soul Fragment was clearly empty; to most people, it was just a pretty stone.
Aside from using it to trick Athena once, there's nothing particularly special about having it on me.
Qin Chu tried to think outside the box. Of the ten team members that Jello had chosen, three had been corrupted, and apart from Benson who was killed, the other six were all potential corrupted candidates.
Then... could it be that Jello, the First-Generation Hero, was also corrupted by the Evil God?
This thought startled even Qin Chu himself.
No way, Jello is Hero, after all.
Qin Chu's words surprised Candice: "You're going to meet Ramon?"
"This is too dangerous!"
"That's Magic Creature territory, and you're Hero. If you let..."
Qin Chu snapped out of his reverie and smiled slightly, "Who knows I'm Hero?"
Candice was stunned.
Suddenly, he recalled the first time Qin Chu met him, when he was disguised as Horus.
With this ability, it is indeed very difficult for Magic Creature to see through Qin Chu's true identity.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything too dangerous. Even if those Magic Creature really want to attack me, I'm absolutely confident I can escape." Qin Chu said confidently.
"But will the Holy See and the Empire let you leave?"
"Of course not." Qin Chu shook his head. "However, as Hero, I have already demonstrated some power, and the front lines have lost territory one after another due to the large number of Magic Creature attacks arranged by Ramon. The human side also needs a victory to boost morale and turn the tide."
"Now is the perfect time for the Hero to step in."
"Now that the Hero's Party has lost Benson and Karthus, I reckon that Wadsworth, Augustus, and Saint Monica are probably already discussing how to replenish the Hero's Party and then take the opportunity to shove their own people in."
"Once the Hero's Party is reassembled, I should be sent to the front lines to fight Magic Creature. At that time, I'll have plenty of opportunities to sneak out."
The previous instruction from Candice to inform Ramon about some weak points in the human defenses has indeed begun to take effect.
"Oh, right, this is for you." Qin Chu took something out of his spatial ring and handed it to Candice.
It was a magic scroll.
Of course, it wasn't something that would connect with the Void Evil God. It was a scroll imprinted with Spatial Teleportation Magic Array, which was very difficult to create, and Qin Chu didn't have many of them.
"Set the coordinates in advance. Although I don't think Ramon will harm you at this time, since you are very useful to Ramon, it's always safer to have this. If Ramon really wants to harm you, you can immediately escape to the place you set beforehand by opening the scroll," Qin Chu instructed.
Candice felt a warm glow inside and happily accepted the scroll.
She gave him another soft kiss.
This Succubus was provoking Qin Chu's desire with every move she made. Even without doing anything, just smelling Candice's fragrance made Qin Chu feel an inexplicable urge.
Holding a soft body in my arms felt so comfortable.
Qin Chu even felt that if he could hold and kiss her like this for a lifetime, it would be the greatest happiness.
Unfortunately, this tenderness didn't last long. Just when Qin Chu felt he was about to lose control, Candice, her cheeks flushed, straightened up and left Qin Chu's embrace.
Her eyes still held a captivating, silky allure.
"Then, my beloved Lord Horus, I wish you all the best."
That vixen!
Qin Chu shook his head helplessly.
When he returned home, Angelica had already prepared a delicious breakfast.
Aili came down for dinner, Qin Chu glanced at her; there were no X-shaped marks left on her body.
It's unclear whether it's because it wasn't watched by the Evil God, or because the corruption was too shallow to manifest yet.
Sylph remained in her room and did not appear. Qin Chu did not mind, knowing that Sylph was trying to process what he had told her earlier.
After breakfast, Antasia and Angelica continued their training with Antia and Violet.
More and more powerful girls are surrounding Qin Chu, and even the usually very confident Antasia feels threatened. They must improve their strength as soon as possible so that they won't be outdone by the other girls.
After dinner, Aili and Athena both went out. Based on the clues provided by Ekaterina, Athena was probably going to the library to study the subject of the soul.
As for Aili, she was simply gathering information about herself.
He was already used to the fact that there were spies everywhere around the palace.
After Ekaterina followed them out, only Qin Chu and Norma remained in the hall.
"Norma, I'm sorry," Qin Chu said to Norma.
Norma knew exactly why Qin Chu was apologizing, and she quickly shook her head. "Mr. Qin, you don't need to apologize. This isn't your fault. Perhaps this is the best outcome for Karthus."
"If we let Karthus continue to live, it will surely cause countless casualties. Perhaps, just as Gaia said, my attempt to save Karthus from the very beginning was a mistake."
Norma, you're awesome for bringing up Gaia on your own initiative!
Qin Chu mentally praised her, "It seems that the other you, Miss Gaia, is quite lively."
Norma said shyly, "Actually, it's really noisy. It's always making noise in my head, and it's driving me crazy..."
"I'm not bothered at all..." Norma immediately heard another voice in her mind.
It was a remnant soul residing in Norma's body, but Norma clearly didn't see it that way; she regarded Gaia's remnant soul as another consciousness of hers.
"What does she usually talk about?"
Norma seemed amused, a slight smile appearing on her face, "She talks so much... She always says I'm too weak, too useless, and that if she were in my shoes, she would do this and that..."
"They even said I'm incredibly stupid, that I can't even learn a Transcendent Magic after half a month of studying it..."
Good heavens, Transcendent Magic? You want to learn it in just half a month? Where did you come from, you genius?
"She doesn't even acknowledge that she's another version of me, giving herself the name Gaia and fantasizing that she's the Earth Witch..."
"One moment she claims to be the Earth Witch, the next she says she's a saintess of the Earth Mother Church from a thousand years ago."
"They even said that the current Earth Mother Church is a bunch of filthy traitors."
Norma spoke excitedly, saying that she had never told anyone these things before. She had thought about telling Karthus, but Karthus told her that she must have something wrong with her brain as soon as she mentioned it.
Norma is really happy to have Qin Chu as a listener.
