Free Web NovelChapter 881: Chapter 519: Saintess Election? Let’s Frame and Slander! (2)
"Well... never mind, this little flaw shouldn’t be a big deal." Qishala glanced at Mitole’s barren chest and sighed.
Mitole noticed Qishala’s gaze and quickly pouted, raising her head, "Mitole can use magic to get bigger! But I have Lady Vivian’s orders not to use magic for such meaningless things."
"Lady Vivian?" Qishala was stunned.
"Exactly!" Mitole put her hands on her hips and started vividly describing the instructions given by Lady Vivian: "Lady Vivian said that some people with impulsive, perverted thoughts in their head need a flat washboard to smooth out the wrinkles."
"..."
Vivian, I know you have some issues with these godly beings, but you can’t teach kids this way.
Shen Sui internally grumbled, coughed twice to interrupt the conversation between the two maids.
Qishala looked at Shen Sui with slight panic: "Sorry, Master. I didn’t notice you were back."
Shen Sui waved his hand with a smile, his earlier annoyance long gone, and curiously asked, "Where are Vivian and the others?"
"They went to watch Freymia’s promotion tournament," Qishala replied.
"Huh? Does Freymia even have a promotion tournament?" That was Shen Sui’s first reaction, especially since Freymia really wasn’t very good.
But upon reconsideration, it seemed that there indeed was such a thing.
Although some people were deliberately flattering her, Freymia did actually win many championships, amassed enough points, so starting a promotion tournament made sense.
"I’ll go fetch you some tea." Mitole watched Qishala and Shen Sui chatting and volunteered.
"No need!" Shen Sui and Qishala said in unison.
Upon hearing Mitole’s words, Shen Sui even started to sweat on his forehead.
Mitole’s tea craft always carried a certain magical attribute, not on the level of extraordinary power, but in the literal biological sense.
To this day, Shen Sui couldn’t comprehend Mitole’s reasoning for adding MSG and oyster sauce to black tea.
Luckily, Mitole was quite self-aware. After Shen Sui firmly refused, she accepted her role, stood motionless in the corner, earnestly playing the part of a beautiful dragon maid statue.
And to better portray this role, she even used divine power to decorate her dragon horns with flowers.
But... could you use some normal flowers, please?
Seeing the flowers on Mitole’s dragon horns, Shen Sui’s mouth twitched slightly.
Although these flowers were beautiful, the fragrance could easily poison an eighth or ninth-tier extraordinary being, right? They were the most famous poison on the Dawn Continent.
"And Delia and the others?" Shen Sui asked curiously as he took the teacup from Qishala’s hand.
Not to mention Freymia, even Delia and the other dragon princesses seemed absent.
Qishala said, "They went back to handle some matters. They say a new powerful dragon beast was born."
It truly seemed to be an eventful time.
Shen Sui mused inwardly.
Upon reflection, it made sense; if extraordinary beings couldn’t cope in their worlds due to various reasons, they wouldn’t just pass through out of boredom, right?
Taking out his phone, Xinyuan Tanchun had not yet notified him of the specific tournament time, so feeling bored, Shen Sui opened the dueling device to see what Alice was up to.
Alice was still in Sun City, watched by Baris in the guise of Aivia, and Shen Sui hadn’t received any alerts of life card acquisitions either. This at least indicated Alice wasn’t causing trouble.
Shen Sui, in rare good spirits, opened the dueling device.
Upon receiving Shen Sui’s instructions, Alice readily accepted the task of becoming the Daylight Saintess.
Since she already held many positions, adding the role of Daylight Saintess wasn’t a burden.
In fact, being the Daylight Saintess could help her more effectively orchestrate the war between the Daylight and Thunder Churches from a godly perspective.
On the Daylight Church side, she could more quickly deplete the remaining power of the Eternal Day Sect, while on the Thunder Church side, she could quickly consume its original power, pushing forward the Substitution plan rapidly.
Alice had lost count of the number of victories by now.
Thus, Alice went to visit Laudon immediately.
Laudon, aware of Alice’s identity, was both surprised and delighted by her arrival.
Upon hearing that Alice was willing to participate in the Daylight Saintess election, Laudon was naturally very pleased.
Through Laudon’s introduction, Alice met the descendants of former pure Twilight Council members inside the Daylight Church.
["It’s wonderful you could come." Laudon was very pleased. "Sherman’s temper is too irritable, though he looks good, but when he can’t win on the debate stage, he pulls out a stick to hit someone..."]
["That’s a magic staff, Mr. Laudon." Speaking was a handsome young man. His petite, handsome face created a striking contrast with his muscular body; this was Sherman, Laudon’s initial saintess candidate.]
["Whatever it is, your ultimate use of it is as a stick." Laudon sternly addressed Sherman. "I’ve told you a few times, the ones on the debate stage are the church’s internal genius clergy, don’t casually harm their lives."]
["But, if I kill them all, wouldn’t I just get elected?" Sherman said matter-of-factly.]
Laudon helplessly patted his head and said to Alice, "You see, the situation is as such, so I’m really delighted you could come."
Alice nodded, walked over to Sherman, looked up at the tall young man, and with a smile, offered her hand, "Hello, I’m Alice."
["Hello..."]
["I think you’re quite right, without opponents, we can easily get elected." Alice smiled and said, "But massacring is too violent; we are civilized people and should use a gentler approach."]
["A gentler approach?" Laudon and Sherman were both taken aback.]
Sherman was excited; his viewpoint had received recognition, so he eagerly asked Alice what the gentle approach was.
Alice hadn’t given it any thought.
Well, that certainly fits Alice’s character. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Shen Sui nodded as he read on.
Although he hadn’t obtained any life cards or made progress on the task, this inexplicable warmth made Shen Sui feel entranced.
How long had it been since he looked at the dueling device this peacefully?
Reflectively, Shen Sui glanced at Alice’s next words.
["Alice thought for a moment and said, ’Send them all to the Inquisition.’] freewebnovёl.ƈom
"..."
You call this gentle?
Don’t you know what the Inquisition does?
["Eh? But this..." Laudon found Alice’s idea somewhat extreme, considering that those eligible for saintess election were the top devout clergy, at least publicly, making it unlikely they’d leave evidence to incriminate themselves enough for the Judgement Hall."]
["I believe this could be very effective." Alice nodded repeatedly, increasingly thinking her idea was excellent. "Sun City recently suffered an attack by unidentified individuals; for them to invade the city so smoothly and cause such havoc, it evidently wasn’t done alone. The perpetrator must have accomplices within Sun City! We only need to link these candidates to the invader, perhaps with evidence related to them. Given the current tense state of the Judgement Hall, they surely wouldn’t overlook these clues."]
["The Inquisition possesses very strong identification abilities, forged evidence might not escape the Lady of Daylight’s scrutiny." Laudon felt something was amiss but couldn’t articulate it.]
Alice chuckled, "Who said the evidence is forged? Evidence doesn’t need to be fabricated at all."
Well, naturally...
Because you are the invader!
