Chapter 375 All Actors (2)

Rosweisse was very unhappy with Angelica.

I'm extremely annoyed.

Even now, Rosweisse deeply regrets that she saved Angelica from the stake in order to torture her herself.

This hatred may have existed since they were both candidates for sainthood and trained together.

Despite being among the most outstanding of the selected girls, Rosweisse, who prided herself on her hard work and always maintaining a perfect image, still couldn't gain an advantage over Angelica.

In the final competition for the title of Saintess, Angelica became her most formidable enemy.

All of this made Rosweisse very upset, but what made Rosweisse even more upset was what happened after Qin Chu, the Second-Generation Hero, was summoned.

Qin Chu did not choose his destined lover from the Divine Oracle, but instead chose Angelica, a lowly maid, under the watchful eyes of everyone at the banquet. In that instant, the mocking voices around him drove Rosweisse almost insane.

Watching this maid, whom he once tormented and humiliated at will, living a better life every day.

Meanwhile, on her side, the plan to revive Jello was fraught with difficulties, with one piece of bad news after another, driving Rosweisse to the brink of madness with jealousy.

On what grounds?

On what grounds?

On what grounds?

In what ways am I inferior to Angelica?

Every smile that appeared on Angelica's face was, in Rosweisse's eyes, a mockery of herself.

Envy made Rosweisse repulsive.

Her hatred and disgust for Angelica surpassed everything else; as long as Angelica lived, her heart could not find peace.

Perhaps she would soon become the first female pope of the Holy Church, and compared to her, Angelica, the Hero's maid, was utterly insignificant.

However, once he becomes the Pope, killing Angelica will become even more difficult, because more attention will be focused on him. Now is not the time to completely break ties with the Hero.

Therefore, Rosweisse wanted to eliminate Angelica with Carlos's help before she became Pope.

At that time, she will be able to sit on the papacy without any worries and enjoy the highest glory in the world.

Carlos frowned. The darkness emanating from Rosweisse sent chills down his spine. It was like ink; he couldn't see it, but he could imagine how distorted the saintess's face must look at that moment.

Is this woman really a saint?

That's such a pointless idea.

When this woman produced seven strange scrolls, the identity of the saintess might have been nothing more than a disguise to Rosweisse.

Carlos's face was grim, and the scar on his eye twitched, looking utterly terrifying.

"Rosweisse, are you trying to send me to my death?"

"The Adventurer's Guild has many skilled members, but I don't believe they can defeat the Hero and the others in the Hero's Palace with just that."

"You should know that the Second-Generation Hero is far superior to the First-Generation Hero."

In an instant, Rosweisse's face became extremely ferocious.

The Second-Generation Hero is better than the First-Generation Hero. This is the last thing Rosweisse wanted to hear, and it made her Wrath the most.

A bunch of blind people, they can't see how charming and outstanding Jello is at all.

Oh, right, this guy really does have no eyes, so it's normal that he can't see how outstanding Jello is. Rosweisse generously let it go.

"Carlos, you don't need to worry."

"I will travel to the Hero's Palace to invite the Hero to the Holy See Cathedral for the ceremony. As the Hero's closest and most important bodyguard, Violet will naturally accompany him."

Norma will probably go along too.

"Not to mention Ekaterina, Athena, and Sylph, in this vast palace, perhaps only Angelica, Antasia, Heloise, and the two Magic Creature ladies, Ieta, will remain. These two filthy Magic Creature, though powerful, should be nothing more than things that Your Excellency could destroy with a flick of your finger, right?"

"By then, there will be no force within the palace that can hinder you."

"Remember, kill those two Magic Creature girls, and the commoner Qin Chu adopted. If you can, kill them; if not, it doesn't matter. But Angelica must be eliminated."

"As for how to handle things afterwards, I'll take care of it. I absolutely won't let you suffer any losses."

Hmph, laughable.

Carlos would never believe Rosweisse's empty promise, but he couldn't refuse Rosweisse decree. Maintaining his distorted and gloomy expression, he nodded slightly. The next second, right in front of Rosweisse, Carlos's body flickered like a phantom and vanished without a trace.

Rosweisse did not react much to this scene.

She gently stretched her arms, adjusted her expression, and regained her innocent and pure demeanor. Instead of taking a carriage, she transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the Hero's Palace.

Before long, the familiar palace came into view.

Rosweisse hurried into the palace.

As soon as they arrived in the courtyard, they saw Qin Chu lying lazily on Angelica's soft legs in the hall, while Angelica was cleaning Qin Chu's ears.

Seeing the two of them being so affectionate, a flame immediately ignited in Rosweisse's chest.

However, Rosweisse quickly regained control of her emotions. At this crucial moment, Rosweisse was absolutely unwilling to ruin her plans because of a small slip of the tongue.

She deliberately stomped her feet on the floor to make a crisp sound, attracting the attention of everyone in the room.

What a shameless Hero!

Throughout the entire palace, apart from Qin Chu, everyone else— Violet, Norma, Antasia, Ekaterina, Sylph, Athena, plus the two Magic Creature girls and the maid Angelica —was a beautiful young woman.

That bastard, is he really planning to turn this place into his harem?

While enjoying a lap pillow and ear cleaning, Qin Chu slightly blinked, signaling Angelica to stop. He then sat up, his face now adorned with a gentlemanly smile.

"So it's Your Highness, Holy Maiden. It's been a long time. How have you been?"

Pah, shameless.

Rosweisse thought to herself, "No matter how much you pretend to be a gentleman, you can't hide your perverted nature."

Her face, however, remained gentle and anxious. "Thank you for your concern, Hero, I'm alright."

Rosweisse seemed genuinely anxious; no sooner had she finished speaking than she impatiently asked again, "Hero, could you please go to the Holy Church's Sanctum? Something terrible has happened!"

Qin Chu's eyes narrowed rapidly, his tone grave. "Is it serious?"

Rosweisse nodded vigorously. "Very serious."

"Then I won't ask what happened yet, Violet, come with me." Qin Chu nodded.

"It seems something serious has happened. Let's go over there." Ekaterina immediately stood up.

Sylph and Athena followed closely behind.

Rosweisse's gaze swept over the three women, a slight warmth appearing in her eyes. Although their statuses were no longer the same, they were still able to react promptly, truly worthy of being her former teammates.

Before Lord Jello was resurrected, the three of them were his most important and trustworthy partners.

For a moment, a hint of emotion flickered in Rosweisse's eyes.

Seemingly unsure of what had happened, Angelica somewhat worried. Not wanting to be a burden to her master, she didn't follow. After a brief hesitation, she spoke to Norma, "Miss Norma, could you please come along and take good care of our master?"

Norma nodded slightly and followed Qin Chu.

Rosweisse grew increasingly smug.

The whole process went exactly as I had predicted. The entire Hero's Palace would soon be left with only the maid Angelica, Antasia, two Magic Creature girls, and a commoner girl...

With Carlos's strength, dealing with these people would be as easy as drinking water.

Angelica is definitely doomed now.

Rosweisse never imagined that she could possibly fail.

After that, all she had to do was pin the blame on Carlos. It was Carlos who lost control due to Envy and caused the tragedy; it had absolutely nothing to do with Rosweisse.

Everyone is an actor.

Rosweisse thought she was the director of the scene, but little did she know that she was actually just an extra.

Ah, no, probably a supporting role.

A group of people quickly left the palace.

Just as he reached the main gate, Qin Chu glanced back briefly and could still see a black figure on the second floor of the palace.

That is Ileta, the Daughter of Death.

Qin Chu will not leave the slightest loophole.

The Sanctum was filled with a heavy, oppressive, and solemn atmosphere.

A large number of clergy knelt around the ice coffin, praying devoutly.

Inside the ice coffin, the body of Saint Felice still lay quietly, motionless.

The ice-attribute magic stone released a chilling aura, ensuring the corpse would not decompose.

This strange situation made Qin Chu frown deeply.

Saint Monica, the High Priestess of the Earth Mother Church, was also present in the Sanctum, and she exchanged a glance with Qin Chu in an instant.

Apart from the clergy around the perimeter, everyone else in the entire Sanctum, including Saint Monica and the three former members of the Hero's Party, were Qin Chu's own people.

However, in Rosweisse's view, some of them might be her allies.

Wadsworth, Zimmerman, and others were also invited, but both declined due to various reasons and did not attend.

This displeased Rosweisse somewhat. She quickly composed herself, her face showing a hint of sorrow. Her fingers brushed across the ice coffin, and in a daze, she seemed to be able to touch Felice's skin inside.

"Hero, this is my mother, Saint Losfelis!"

Qin Chu's eyes narrowed slightly; this time, he was truly shocked.

"He was killed by Augustus."

What a vicious woman.

Second update delivered. Thank you Yong Nianwen for the reward and for your support.

Chapter 376 Augustus's Despair (3)

Rosweisse's mother did not appear at all during the first playthrough; Qin Chu only heard some rumors about her.

But from the woman's face in the ice coffin, Qin Chu was certain that this woman was definitely Rosweisse's mother; the two looked remarkably alike.

This woman should be in her forties or fifties, but time hasn't left many marks on her face. If she were standing next to Rosweisse, people might mistake them for sisters.

However, what Rosweisse said was truly despicable.

Aside from Norma, who's naive and innocent? Aren't all the others here seasoned sly foxes?

Was this woman really killed by Augustus?

In an instant, the entire Sanctum was completely silent except for the sounds of the clergy praying. Every pair of eyes that instinctively swept over Rosweisse could feel the shock deep within their hearts.

That woman, Rosweisse, is truly terrifying. In order to bring Augustus down, she even killed her own mother, just to frame Augustus.

However, no one said these words aloud, and everyone's expression was extremely solemn.

It seems things have escalated to a greater extent than initially thought.

Qin Chu's gaze swept across the Sanctum, which included Douglas and a large number of bishops, archbishops, and vice-commanders of Knight Sanctum.

The atmosphere at the scene was extremely tense, like dark clouds before a storm, ready to explode at any moment.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Chu's voice finally broke the deathly silence:

"Impossible, I don't believe Augustus do such a thing."

This time, Qin Chu was going to play the good guy, stir up trouble, and fan the flames.

This remark immediately drew Wrath stares from many of the surrounding clergy.
