Even I Can Be Yours! (2)

A slight curve appeared at the corners of her round, jade-like lips, and her slender hands were gently outstretched. The Dark Witch was sensing the remaining Magic Power fluctuations in the air, determining the approximate location and distance of the spatial magic circle.

Although it's not particularly accurate.

A few seconds later, Saya opened her eyes and smiled smugly.

The next second, with a flick of the finger, a tree branch automatically jumped up from the ground, drawing patterns on the soil.

Immediately, with a snap, as Saya Nicholas gently interlaced his two slender, pale fingers, the Dark Witch vanished from her spot.

The Imperial City of the empire remains shrouded in a deep gloom.

This tense atmosphere has persisted for a long time, like a balloon that is constantly expanding and could burst at any moment. Anyone can feel the oppression and terror before that moment arrives.

Carlos, the president of the Adventurer's Guild, had been ignoring Saya Nicholas ever since they parted ways... well, it wasn't really a parting at all. Saya Nicholas and Qin Chu were having such a pleasant conversation that they completely ignored him.

His existence was like air to those two... no, more like a stupid clown's baboon? Did they expect him to just slink away and watch that despicable couple go to a hotel to "exercise" and digest their food after their meal?

In short, it was on this night that Carlos received an invitation from Rosweisse.

The woman, who in Carlos's eyes seemed more like a Witch than a saint, offered him a chance, saying that if he accepted, he would go to the Holy Church to find her.

Nearly half a month has passed since then.

Carlos searched the entire Imperial City for a trace of Saya Nicholas, mobilizing a large number of adventurers to search both the Nobles' District and Commoners' District, but to no avail.

It was as if what I saw that day was just a beautiful illusion in a dream.

The Hero also went missing; the official explanation given was that he had gone to hunt Magic Creature.

The Hero and Saya Nicholas disappeared at the same time?

Carlos, prone to overthinking, couldn't help but conjure up all sorts of images in his mind again. What a joke! Magic Creature hunting? These two weren't sneaking off to fool around together, were they?

Could it be that the luxurious rooms in the hotels within the Imperial City are no longer sufficient for two people?

Do they want to experience the most wonderful pleasures of nature in a dense forest, beside a babbling brook, atop a mountain swept by a biting wind, or in a verdant meadow?

The various images flashing through his mind were unbearable for Carlos; his body was trembling uncontrollably, his anger grew stronger, and his eyes were practically spitting fire.

"Hateful..."

After a long while, Carlos couldn't help but let out a low roar.

The next second, the president of the Adventurer's Guild kicked open the door and headed towards the Holy Church.

Although he was very resentful, Carlos had to admit that the Hero could single-handedly kill the second prince of the Magic Creature, Edrich, was someone he could no longer handle. Carlos had encountered that second prince in the war against the Magic Creature before, and the final result was a crushing defeat.

He wanted to know what opportunity that enigmatic saintess had prepared for him.

Not long after, Carlos appeared at the entrance of the Holy Church.

Carlos, the president of the Adventurer's Guild and a follower of the Goddess of Holy Light, was not stopped and headed straight for the saintess's boudoir.

On the other side, on the very top floor of the church, Augustus stood quietly by a window, a sinister smile on his face, staring at Carlos.

I really underestimated this woman, Rosweisse.

She's even more resourceful and capable than I imagined; she's even managed to win over the president of the Adventurer's Guild. It seems Rosweisse is truly determined to kill Qin Chu.

What a pity.

Augustus actually had a pretty good impression of Qin Chu, the Hero.

If he hadn't also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to obtain the Hero's corpse, he really wouldn't have wanted Qin Chu to die so easily.

Augustus and looked away. His reflection in the mirror showed Augustus hunched figure, which had somehow straightened up.

The deep lines on his face seemed to have smoothed out considerably.

Even her originally silvery-white long hair now had a layer of dark gray.

This man seemed to have become at least ten years younger in a short period of time.

On the other side, Carlos had already reached the door of the saintess's boudoir. After a brief hesitation, Carlos curled his finger and gently knocked.

Squeak...

The door opened automatically.

Saint Rosweisse, who seemed to have fully recovered and appeared pure and holy, stood before Carlos.

Upon seeing Carlos, Rosweisse's lips curved into a beautiful smile, "Lord Carlos, now that you're here, may I take it as your acceptance of my proposal?"

Carlos took a deep breath and nodded. "So, what is the opportunity you're giving me?"

Rosweisse smiled, her small hand gently stroking the table.

The next second, seven scrolls suddenly appeared on the previously empty table.

"Pick one!"

Chapter 1 is here. Many thanks to Piaoyu for the 2000 points reward, and many thanks to readers 20200315200855198, 20210702170200868, wo1e, 202207070048233337, 150603114152929, Shiqi, and Saint Eldrich of the Deep Cathedral for their rewards. Thank you for your support.

Chapter 355 Even I can be yours! (2)

Seven scrolls lay quietly on the table.

The moment the scroll appeared, the temperature in the saint's boudoir plummeted.

Carlos felt as if a layer of frost was about to condense on his body, and a dense layer of small bumps uncontrollably appeared on his skin.

He was afraid!

Carlos didn't know why, but even though they were just seven seemingly ordinary scrolls, they gave him the creeps.

Seeing Carlos's expression, Rosweisse simply sat quietly to the side, a faint smile on her face, seemingly waiting for Carlos to make a choice.

She didn't urge him; she understood that the moment Carlos appeared there, he was already unable to escape the arrangements of Fate.

The seven scrolls, along with her vast wealth and the diaries containing numerous scandalous details, were stolen. Rosweisse thought she would never see them again. But on the very night her identity and bloodline were confirmed, she received another Divine Oracle: the seven identical scrolls reappeared before her.

Moreover, compared to before, Rosweisse now knows more about the true uses of the seven scrolls.

She can not only learn various kinds of knowledge through these scrolls, but also use them to create a large number of powerful and loyal servants for herself.

Carlos is a very good target. If you can control Carlos, it's equivalent to controlling tens of thousands of adventurers under the Adventurer's Guild. This is a very powerful force, which would be extremely useful for Rosweisse to consolidate her position and assassinate Augustus.

Carlos's fingers trembled slightly. He wanted to touch the scrolls, but was instinctively afraid. After several seconds, Carlos's gaze turned to Rosweisse: "Can I gain great power just by touching these scrolls?"

Rosweisse shook her head slightly. "No, acquiring power is not that simple."

All you can get is an opportunity.

Whether you can obtain powerful strength from the scroll depends on your own wisdom, ability, and talent.

Carlos's eyes narrowed to slits. "If that's already precious enough, why leave this opportunity to me?"

Carlos was no fool to have climbed to the position of president of the Adventurer's Guild. The more benefits he could gain, the more suspicious he became, because Mana doesn't just fall from the sky.

Such good fortune doesn't just fall into your lap for no reason.

"I've said before that I hope you'll cooperate with me."

"Let me just tell you straight, I want to sit on the throne of the Holy Church."

Hiss...

Carlos was shocked.

He stared at Rosweisse with disbelief; this woman's ambition was truly terrifying.

The popes of the Holy Church have always been male; a female pope has never appeared before. This is as astonishing as the sudden appearance of a male patriarch in the Earth Mother Church.

I've really underestimated this Holy Maiden all along.

"If I want to climb up, I have to pull Augustus down... Although I have gained great power from the scroll, Augustus alone, so I need help."

"If you can gain great power from the scroll, you will need to help me deal with Augustus."

"Of course, in return, I will help you deal with the Hero Qin Chu so that you can successfully obtain Natia, how about it?"

"In fact, if you'd like, even I could be yours." Rosweisse's voice suddenly became alluring, her cheeks flushed slightly, and her eyes were like silk.

In that instant, Carlos felt that Rosweisse was absolutely stunning.

Of all the women he knew, she was second only to Saya Nicholas.

His heart skipped a beat for a moment.

Call...

Carlos took a deep breath.

Rosweisse had already stated her terms, and Carlos was somewhat convinced, after all, this woman wanted something from him.

Moreover, Rosweisse's strength has indeed increased dramatically. The woman who was once on par with him has now far surpassed him, which has aroused Carlos's competitive spirit and anxious impulse.

As for whether or not to cooperate with Rosweisse and get involved in the internal conflicts of the Holy Church after gaining power, we'll see when the time comes.

After a brief hesitation, Carlos made up his mind and stared at the seven scrolls on the table... These seven scrolls would determine what kind of opportunities and abilities he would gain, so he had to choose carefully.

However, no matter how Carlos looked at them, the seven scrolls were almost identical; he couldn't distinguish them at all, nor could he perceive any difference.

Since that's the case, let Fate decide. Carlos reached out and grabbed one of the scrolls.

Buzz!

The instant his fingertips touched the scroll, Carlos felt a terrifying pull coming from in front of him, like a giant vortex frantically drawing and pulling at his soul.

His consciousness seemed to drift into the endless Void for a moment, surrounded by dense darkness.

This sudden situation made Carlos a little flustered.

Just then, a whoosh suddenly appeared in front of them, and a large expanse of blue-purple flames surged forth.

Huff... huff... huff...

Strange sounds continued to appear, and in a short time, clusters of flames leaped violently around Carlos's body, their blue-purple color completely enveloping Carlos.

A bizarre, distorted human face gradually emerged from the leaping flames all around.

"Aaaaaaahhhhhh..."

In that instant, Carlos let out a cry of near despair.

He felt as if his eyes were being scorched into charcoal by an indescribable heat, as if streams of blood were constantly gushing from his pupils.

He felt his body enduring pain that no ordinary person could bear.

He felt as if his soul was about to melt away in that instant.

"Hehehehehe..."

Accompanying Carlos's desperate cries were eerie laughter echoing all around.

He is the master of deception.

He is the weaver of Fate!

He is the God of Deceit and Fate!

All He wants is... chaos, chaos, and fucking chaos!

Although this guy seemed more suited to be the God of Darkness, Blood, and Slaughter, well, who told Him to choose Him?

Then, my most loyal servant, bring me a pious catastrophe.

Go and kill that ant that cannot see through Fate!

Puff...

In reality, Carlos's eyes exploded, and thick blood flowed down his handsome face.

On the other side.

Snowlink Mountains!

Saya Nicholas's face was extremely gloomy.

She had been searching for a long time in this vast, snow-covered mountain range, and she was becoming more and more convinced of one thing: she had been tricked by that despicable Hero.

It's unclear whether Qin Chu knew he was being followed or if it was just the man's habitual caution.
