Chapter 71: Pope Krispy Cleaner Pt. 2
As Fate played therapist to these men, Amara and her followers in the shadows were stumped at how their lord was dealing with this enemy.
Amara was wondering since when you could defeat a killer after your life by simply talking them into hating their job and boss.
Well, the answer is that Amara does not live on Earth and has no exposure to social media.
But from the things she has heard from Fate while he sleep talks, this kind of thing would be called an employee flaking out on their boss over a few minor issues.
Amara was wondering why they simply don’t wear nose plugs while around Pope Bark Beetle like she did.
From what they said, it seems the new saintess must have read the public notices Amara sent out on how to properly meet the pope.
But the fact that Mary Jane Dawson is so obedient to the Pope is not surprising to her. She was replaced on the orders of the goddess.
Vespera is far more interested in her own reflection than she is in the well-being of her believers.
Amara felt the opposite from Phoenix Rising. The more they express their belief in Fate the Phoenix Lord, the more benefits they receive.
Now not only are the Faithful immune to fire like Amara and Ruby, but recently there have been reports that the new children being born to members of Phoenix Rising are being born without any sort of birth complications or illnesses.
Overall, Amara was impressed with this new form of modern warfare: turning your enemy into your ally by simply making them hate their boss.
The deadbeat assassin finally finished thinking and said,
"You’re saying that we should become onion farmers. That way, if we ever meet that crop-dusting Pope again, we can stink him out with our combined stink-breath attack. That would make us the enemy of the church, but none of us have any family to go back to that have not been killed by the scent that lingers around the Holy Kingdom Of Xeon. I’m not sure many outsiders are aware of this, but there is a reason they call it the Holy Kingdom. It’s not because the goddess has blessed Xeon, but because the outsiders who come to our kingdom’s capital city, Kalindor, say, ’Holy moly, it stinks here.’ If the pope hears someone say this, they will quietly disappear during the night. Since so many outsiders disappear after they are heard insulting the smell in Kalindor, the Pope just blames it on the enemies of the church, increasing the faith of the goddess’s believers through his lies."
Fate, hearing this, began to wonder if this world he was sent to by Truck-kun is not a bit too exaggerated. Who wins a religious election by farting in a room?
With this thought in mind, Fate wondered if he is actually the only normal person in this world. No, on second thought, Ruby and Amara are also very normal too. They never act weird around him.
But little does Fate know about the growing number of idols these two wives are making his believers set up all over his territory, and now a few have even spread beyond the mountains of the Southern Hampshire Plains and into the rest of the kingdom of Westridge.
Fate looked at the deadbeat and with a smile said,
"Well then, it sounds like you have no reason to kill me. So go ahead and find a local official in my territory and start your career as onion farmers. Onions are a very profitable market in the kingdom of Westridge, so you will make quite a bit of money off of this new venture of yours."
With a new determination in mind, this assassin took off his face mask, as did the others, then they removed their dark clothing.
What they wore underneath truly shocked Fate and even Ruby to their core.
This former deadbeat assassin now stood before Fate in a pair of overall jeans with a piece of straw hanging out from between his teeth. Then he said to Fate,
"Well from now on, Duke Fate, you can call me Farmer Clem Donald and I’m at your service. These are my nine trusty farmhands, Clem number 2 through 10. We are all brothers from the same family and assassins to boot. An assassin must always be ready for the unexpected, so we always wear this extra set of clothing under our own. Who knew that today we would actually become farmers and fulfill the dreams of the Donald family ancestors."
Fate, hearing this name, thought about cheeseburgers. So he said to Clem Donald, ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
"I’m going to have someone send you a few cows to raise for me. I’m in the mood for a few cheeseburgers. So let me know when my beef is ready."
Clem Donald and his nine brothers nodded their heads as they all had straw in their mouths by now, despite the fact that there was no straw to be found in this area to begin with.
Clem looked at Ruby and Fate and decided to warn them in advance before he left. So Clem said to Fate,
"Duke Fate, since you helped us decide to quit our jobs and one day get revenge on that crop-dusting Pope with our own mouth bombs, it’s only fair for me to warn you that the Pope has sent Mary Jane Dawson to Valoria to attend Bloomspire Academy. I have no doubt that while she is in Valoria, she will attempt to either assassinate you or bewitch you. So don’t be fooled by that blond-haired bimbo and her promises of wealth and power, or you will not know how you died."
With this warning, Clem Donald and his nine brothers, Clem 2-10, left the field and Fate to start their new life as onion farmers. These ten brothers’ journey was only beginning. Soon they would once again have their worldview shattered by Fate on their next meeting.
After Clem left, Fate looked at Ruby and smiled, but he saw a slightly worried look on her face.
Fate knew what she was worried about, so he said to Ruby, freewёbnoνel.com
"Ruby, don’t worry too much about Mary Jane Dawson. That girl’s power of charm will have no effect on me. But I can’t wait to see how Kathy Primrose reacts to the sight of Nimrod being bewitched by that girl’s charm manipulation magic. Those two will have a lot of fun fighting over Nimrod, especially when he bleeds them both dry of money. Those three girls and the prince truly deserve each other."
