Can You Go on a Date with Me? (1)

It is said that although his fiancée has abandoned Karthus, he still deeply loves her and longs to be with her again Karthus.

By the way, I met that girl, Rosweisse, once. She was a very gentle and pretty girl, and a decent person.

He arrived before me.

Rosweisse was somewhat puzzled, but considering that Karthus's Bone Warhorse was faster than her, it was not surprising.

Unfortunately, even though Karthus arrived there earlier than him, he ultimately failed to save Benson.

Karthus also heard the sound, glanced up at Rosweisse but said nothing, and continued to kneel in prayer.

Although she had many questions she wanted to ask Karthus, she wasn't really sure how to communicate with Karthus. Her feigned innocence and naivety were of no use to Karthus at all. In fact, because of Benson, Karthus would deliberately distance himself from Rosweisse, which gave Rosweisse quite a headache.

She had never encountered such a person before, and had mentally complained more than once, "This saintess took the initiative to approach you, and instead of being grateful, you keep running away?"

"Are we too late?"

After hesitating for a long time, Rosweisse finally spoke.

Karthus remained silent, only nodding quietly, the metal armor on his body creaking and clanking.

Rosweisse frowned, and she covered her face with her small hands, seemingly very sad. She squatted on the ground, her thin shoulders trembling.

Soft sobs and whimpers could be heard through the gaps between the fingers.

Rosweisse's appearance offered Karthus some comfort. Although this woman didn't like Benson, they were teammates for many years, and she was still very saddened by Benson death.

Benson would probably feel gratified.

After a long while, Rosweisse's trembling shoulders finally calmed down. Her bright golden eyes were red and swollen, and her fair face was covered with tear stains.

Feigning tears was not a difficult thing for Rosweisse.

She's very professional.

Now she finally had time to ask the other questions that had been nagging at her, such as what exactly was going on with the Head Altar. After all, she had just arrived here, and instead of grieving over her companion's corpse, she was asking about other things; that was really inappropriate.

Sobbing, Rosweisse glanced at the bloodied head beside her. "Karthus, did you do this? What are you doing? These... huh?"

But as they talked, Rosweisse sensed that something was amiss.

Although the heads were covered in blood, their faces were contorted with fear and pain before death, making them look even more grotesque.

However, some of the heads looked strangely familiar to Rosweisse.

When she saw one of the heads, Rosweisse's pupils suddenly contracted, her body trembled violently, and she jumped to her feet. "Captain Wolf?"

She recognized the head as belonging to a Holy Knights Order.

How did his head end up here, and in such a gruesome state?

Rosweisse's body trembled more and more violently. From the lingering life force on these heads, she could tell that these people had been killed by Karthus.

She looked at the Death Knight in disbelief. "Karthus, you... what did you do? Why did you kill them?"

Rosweisse's voice was shrill; she was going crazy.

Karthus, who arrived ahead of schedule, unexpectedly got himself into such big trouble by slaughtering thousands of Knights. If this were to be exposed, Karthus would surely die.

The Hero's Party had already suffered a loss due to Benson's death.

If Karthus is also doomed, what will happen to their plans? Will Jello still be able to be resurrected?

The sudden slaughter of thousands of Knights would not have been something Augustus could have done indifferently. Damn it, damn it, damn it... Why does everyone have to make me so agitated?

Isn't she already in enough trouble?

Faced with the almost insane Rosweisse, Karthus's eyes, hidden beneath his helmet, were filled with confusion, not understanding why Rosweisse was reacting so strongly.

Even when facing Benson's corpse, Rosweisse had never been this agitated.

However, Karthus patiently explained, "They are sacrifices!"

"I offer their lives, souls, blood, and heads as a sacrifice to my comrades..."

Rosweisse felt dizzy. God, this guy really has something wrong with his head. Rosweisse's voice was trembling with tears. "Even if you want to perform human sacrifice, I remember there are several villages at the border, there are plenty of people in there, why slaughter Knight!"

In her frustration, Rosweisse didn't even notice that these words were not something a saint should say.

Fortunately, Karthus was oblivious and didn't notice any of this.

He said in a somber voice, "No one else will do. Only the head of the Holy Church can be used to atone for my comrade, because it was the Holy Church that killed Benson!"

Rosweisse's eyes widened. What was going on now?

She was increasingly confused about how the Holy Church had been involved in Ramon's attack on Benson.

Karthus tossed a white object to Rosweisse, Rosweisse instinctively caught it and looked at it, first puzzled, then shocked. "This, this is my stocking?"

She knew the unique patterns on the stockings better than anyone.

The creaking sound of metal scraping against metal rang out again. Karthus felt a pang of regret; he felt he should have hidden those stockings and skirts, as it would damage his comrades' reputation.

Even if Karthus became stupid, he still felt that stealing girls' worn stockings and skirts was a terrible thing.

The next second, Rosweisse retreated, widening the distance between herself and Karthus, looking at Karthus as if he were a monster.

"Karthus, you... you... how did you get my stockings? You..."

Rosweisse was shocked. Images of Karthus using her stockings to do all sorts of things flashed through her mind, and she felt a wave of nausea.

"Lo... Rosweisse..." Karthus panicked, forgetting his prayers, and hurriedly stood up, waving his metal gloves. "No, you've misunderstood, this, this isn't mine, this is Benson's..."

Benson...

Even more disgusting, what is this guy doing with his own stockings? They look especially filthy now.

"I don't know how Benson got it, but the main thing is that the markings on the stockings were clues Benson left for us."

Clues on the stockings?

Rosweisse was skeptical, but she forced herself to pick up the stockings she had just thrown away, and spread them out with two fingers. The symbols of the Earth Mother Church and the Holy Church were clearly visible on them.

Rosweisse's body began to tremble. "Just because of this, you slaughtered thousands of Knights?"

Karthus replied in a muffled voice, "Of course, they killed my comrades, and I will pay with their blood."

Rosweisse sensed a hint of smugness in Karthus's voice; he seemed proud of his actions.

The next second, the serene saint slowly spoke, "Karthus, you fool!"

Ha?

Karthus was stunned. He had thought his act of revenge would be welcomed and praised by his companions, but who would have thought he would be scolded as a fool? Hearing such words from Rosweisse was even more unacceptable to Karthus.

"Why did you insult me?" he asked.

Rosweisse rubbed her forehead; her head was throbbing. Why were all her teammates such idiots? Ekaterina was brainless, Benson was a moron, and Karthus was a complete moron.

With such a bunch of incompetent teammates, is there really any chance that my plan will succeed?

She stared at Karthus with the look one would give a pig. "Idiot, is your brain made of mush? Didn't you ever consider that this might be a conspiracy by Ramon to frame you?"

Karthus, who was about to retort, was stunned by Rosweisse's words.

"You knew nothing, yet you went and started a massacre... Did you even consider the consequences...?"

Rosweisse did not lose control, but her voice was icy cold, and she had an urge to cry out loud.

It's really too difficult.

Perhaps only Athena could help him, after all, Athena is very clever.

For the first time, she felt resentment towards Jello. Why did she choose such a bunch of incompetent teammates?

"Do you know who Wolf is? He's a Knight of Augustus in the Holy Church who isn't very obedient. He's already sided with Cardinal Douglas and is someone we can win over. That's why Augustus forcibly sent Wolf to the border to clear out the Magic Creature..."

"You didn't kill Augustus's men, but instead killed all the potential allies. Karthus, you're amazing..."

Karthus froze, standing motionless in place, when he suddenly realized the gravity of the situation.

"Of course, Augustus be happy to see Wolf and the others dead, but do you think Augustus wouldn't use this as an excuse to launch a massive purge? If the investigation leads back to you, your head might end up like those Knights '..."

The Death Knight panicked, realizing the gravity of his mistake. "Then, what do I do?"

Call...

Rosweisse sighed; she didn't even have the energy to be angry anymore. Getting angry at such a bunch of idiots would only make her look foolish.

"Hurry up and clean up these heads. Qin Chu, Ekaterina, Natia will be here soon. We mustn't let Qin Chu see them..."

Click...

Before Rosweisse could finish her sentence, she heard the sound of a foot snapping a tree branch behind her.

In a flash, both Rosweisse and Karthus turned their gazes toward the direction from which the sound came.

All that could be seen were Qin Chu, Ekaterina, and a tall, somewhat intimidating woman, all emerging from the jungle at the same time.

Rosweisse's vision went black, and she almost fainted. This was it, she was doomed!

Chapter 108 Can You Go on a Date with Me? (1)

It's true what they say, what you fear most is what happens.

Rosweisse was too tired to teach Karthus, that idiot, any more lessons. She was simply exhausted; she felt that no amount of talking to such a moron would make a difference.

She just wanted to get rid of these heads as soon as possible, and make sure Qin Chu didn't see them.

As a result, the Qin Chu came into being.

In an instant, Rosweisse's heart sank.

Qin Chu was also startled by the scene before him. He had only killed Benson, and when he left, Benson was all alone. How did he suddenly have so many companions?

Ekaterina's gaze was also filled with shock as she looked at the large pile of heads, noticing the headdresses on them. "Knight?"

Qin Chu's heart skipped a beat.

Good heavens, he left two marks, and he didn't even expect anyone to believe him. After all, this method of framing someone was too low-class. Qin Chu just wanted to stir up the waters even more.

But unexpectedly, these people acted so violently, actually killing so many Knight as sacrifices?

Surely Rosweisse isn't that stupid?

Judging from the looks of it, it must have been the armored man next to him who did it...

Death Knight, Karthus.

This person wasn't originally Qin Chu's first target for elimination, but unexpectedly, he came to him on his own initiative, which was quite a pleasant surprise.

Qin Chu seemed startled, his eyes wide and mouth agape—perfectly matching the expression expected at this moment, and that was about enough...

"You... you actually killed so many Knights?" Qin Chu tried hard to control his voice, letting out a terrified cry; his acting skills seemed to be getting better and better.

Rosweisse was really about to cry; she was so unlucky.

But now was not the time to cry. Rosweisse frantically waved her hands, explaining, "No, no, no, Hero Excellency, you've misunderstood. We didn't do this. It was... Ramon. That's right, Ramon did all of this."

Qin Chu's face darkened. "Your Highness Saintess Rosweisse, you have deceived me..."

"I never imagined that someone as noble as you would tell a lie."

"Ramon is Magic Creature, how could he be kind enough to set up an altar and offer sacrifices for the people he killed?"

"Moreover, I sensed that above these heads, there exists the same aura as him; it was he who killed these Knights..." Qin Chu suddenly pointed his finger at Karthus and shouted sharply.

"These were all excellent Knight. They braved the bitter cold and danger to fight Magic Creature on the border, but instead of dying at the hands of the Magic Creature, they died at the hands of the Hero's Party. They died with their eyes wide open in disbelief."

Qin Chu was filled with righteous indignation, loudly Wrath the killing of these Knights.

In fact, the corners of his mouth were almost uncontrollably turning upwards; this was definitely a perfect opportunity to trap Karthus.

For a moment, Rosweisse had no rebuttal.

Only Karthus's eyes beneath his helmet grew increasingly red, his killing intent growing ever stronger.

Qin Chu... this guy is the source of all the trouble.

If this guy hadn't insisted on coming here to play the role of a Second-Generation Hero, Benson wouldn't have had to rush back to the Imperial City, wouldn't have died, and he wouldn't have killed so many Knights.

In Karthus's simple and straightforward mind, there was no other thought besides that Qin Chu was the culprit behind everything.

Furthermore, this guy has now discovered that he has killed so many Knights...
