Chapter 20 Angelica Must Die (2)

The new Saint?

Angelica's eyes widened, her breathing even became a little rapid, and excitement flashed in the depths of her eyes. She thought that being able to escape from Rossweisse's clutches was a great fortune, but she didn't expect that she still had a chance to become a Saint again.

Since she joined the Church of God at a very young age, she has been working hard to become a Saint, but she never thought that she would go from heaven to hell overnight, from a Saint candidate to a maid.

She thought that she had no chance to become a Saint.

In an instant, Angelica felt a burning sensation in her chest, and a strong impulse emerged.

But soon, a hint of doubt appeared on Angelica's face.

Excited?

It seems...not that excited.

Angelica thought she might jump up with excitement because of this sudden stimulation, but what she didn't expect was that the heat in her heart only lasted for a short time and soon cooled down.

The word "saint" seemed to be less attractive to her than before.

The only thing that interested Angelica was that if she became a saint, she could be with Qin Chu legitimately and become Qin Chu's wife.

She knew very well why she was treated like this now.

Everything was because of Qin Chu.

If Qin Chu didn't choose her, would Augustus stop Rossweisse when he wanted to kill her? No!

If Qin Chu didn't choose her, would Augustus promise to restore her reputation and let her become the next saint? No!

Everything she has now was given by Qin Chu. Augustus' promise to her was just to influence and control Qin Chu through himself to increase the influence of the Church of God.

Now it's different from the past. If you want yourself to work, you must give a little sweetness.

No matter what the reason was, even if he only liked her body, only Qin Chu treated her as a real person. In Augustus' eyes, she was just a tool.

Just because Qin Chu chose him, everything around him changed.

Angelica sneered in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. Before leaving the Church of God and reaching the hero, she would never be safe. She didn't have the capital to refuse Augustus.

"Your Holiness, I understand." Angelica replied.

Augustus was very satisfied with Angelica's answer and nodded slightly: "Very good, do it well, the Church of God will not forget your efforts."

Seeing Angelica leave with her back to him, Augustus' eyes narrowed into a slit.

The murderous intent was looming in his eyes. He could see that Angelica did not really surrender. For such an old man, it would be too cowardly if he couldn't even see the mind of a little girl.

But he didn't do it after all. The hero had just arrived, and he didn't want to cause trouble at this time. He asked Angelica to return to the Church. If Angelica died in the Church, whether it was done by the Church or not, it would cause the hero's dissatisfaction with the Church.

In the room of the saint, Rossweisse sat in front of the dressing table, and the mirror was broken into pieces.

She kneaded her cheeks with her hands and adjusted the expression on her face. She was a saint, and she had to maintain elegance and beauty at all times. The impulse just now was really inappropriate.

There was a crisp knock on the door, and Rossweisse didn't even raise her head: "Come in!"

She knew who it was.

Sure enough, Augustus appeared at the door.

"Rossweisse, did you want to kill Angelica just now?" Augustus casually glanced at the messy room and pretended not to see it, his voice a little hoarse.

He was very upset. This brave man was so eccentric that he disrupted many of Augustus's original plans. He had to humble himself and do some appeasement work.

"Your Holiness, how could that be? No matter what I do, I will never kill Angelica in the Church." Rossweisse replied with a smile, and her tone did not seem to have much respect for the Pope.

The difference between being alone and in front of outsiders was a bit too big.

And Augustus had no reaction to Rossweisse's attitude at all. He didn't care at all, as if he had already gotten used to it.

"That's good. Angelica can't die now..." Augustus lowered his eyelids: "If Qin Chu can choose you after Angelica dies, then it doesn't matter if she dies, but the key is that if she dies, it is very likely to cause Qin Chu to dislike the Church of God, which will only push Qin Chu to the opposite side of us, which will benefit Santa Monica and Wadsworth. You know that the two old foxes have been staring at Qin Chu."

Moving her eyes down, Rossweisse looked at the end of her fingers, which were like knife-like nails, and her fingers were still trembling slightly.

Even if she has tried to adjust her mood, it is still difficult to suppress the murderous intent.

"Don't blame me."

"Angelica must die." Augustus continued.

"Angelica is full of hatred for the Church of God and will no longer stand on our side sincerely. However, even if she is to be killed, the Church of God must be completely cleared. Do you understand?"

Her eyes moved, the corners of her mouth curled up little by little, and she finally stood up, lifted her skirt with both hands, and bowed: "I will follow the order of His Holiness the Pope, I understand..."

Her figure was as graceful as a startled swan, and her face was full of beautiful smiles.

"You are my godfather. I can become a saint thanks to the help of His Holiness the Pope. I have always remembered your kindness. I can't thank you enough. How dare I blame His Holiness the Pope!"

Her voice was gentle and crisp.

But Augustus's face was a little ugly.

He didn't continue to dwell on this matter: "Then, you should rest early. If I remember correctly, you will go to the tea party hosted by the daughter of the Grand Duke tomorrow. Don't look haggard. It will damage the dignity of the Church."

Augustus turned around and left, but just as he turned around, his kind face twisted into a ball, and his blue eyes turned scarlet.

As if twisted like a demon.

Rossweisse, damned bastard...

Augustus' thoughts went back to the past.

The main deity worshipped by the Holy Church is the Goddess of Holy Light.

But, in addition to this, there are other gods, such as the Sun God, the God of War, the God of Elements, and many other gods.

In the Church, the Pope has the highest and unique status.

Below the Pope, there are two transcendent positions, that is, the Son of God and the Saint of God.

Only the purest and most beautiful boys and girls can serve as the Son of God and the Saint of God. That is the appearance of the Church of God.

The Son of God and the Saint of God exist to serve the gods.

On the surface, this is the case, but in fact, the Church of God has never sacrificed the Son of God and the Saint of God to the gods. The so-called service is nothing more than kneeling in front of the statue and praying devoutly on a day once a year.

In the Church of God, marriage has never been prohibited.

Although there are those who never marry or never marry in order to show their piety, they are only a very small minority after all. The desire to reproduce is human nature.

Even the honorable saints and saints, when they reach the age and are no longer suitable for serving the gods, many will choose to get married and have children.

Augustus was a saint when he was young.

And the saint of the same age as him was named... Los Phyllis!

Perhaps because of the same honorable status, or because they often had to learn various etiquette together, they became the people who spent the longest time together in each other's lives.

There was no grand past, but only plain and shallow feelings.

Neither Augustus nor Los Phyllis knew when they began to like each other.

Even Augustus was young.

They liked each other, but they never tasted the forbidden fruit. They still followed the rules of the religion and kept their bodies pure when they served as saints and saints.

That shallow, sweet, warm warmth was enough to make the two feel happy.

It was the annual day to serve the gods again.

This was the last time Augustus and Losferlis served the gods.

They intertwined their fingers and agreed in front of the temple that after tonight, they would no longer be the son and daughter of the saint, and they would make their relationship public...

Then, they would get married!

With beautiful wishes for the future, they stepped into the temple.

Here comes the second update. Fortunately, I have some manuscripts saved, so I can take a day off. Yay!

Chapter 21 The fate of the brave is determined (1)

At that time, Augustus had no feelings for the position of Pope. He only had Losferlis in his heart.

With beautiful fantasies about the future, they stepped into the temple and served the gods for the last time.

At that time, neither Augustus nor Losferlis knew that this step was the beginning of a nightmare.

As the temple door behind them closed, the two of them cleaned the statues as before, and then knelt devoutly in front of the statues, praying for the protection of the gods.

Everything was no different from before.

In the middle of the night, the most terrifying scene appeared.

A faint light suddenly flashed on the statue. Augustus and Losferlis were even excited and thought it was a sign of the oracle coming.

They pressed their foreheads against the ground and chanted the blessing loudly.

But soon, the situation became a little weird.

The light on the statue gradually turned into strange and twisted limbs. The long tentacles wriggled like a giant python and wrapped around Losferlis' body.

Augustus' body was suppressed by a mysterious force and could not move. He could only stare with a pair of scarlet eyes and let out a cry like a wounded beast.

Seven twisted beings deliberately tortured Losferlis in front of Augustus for a whole night.

They seemed to enjoy the desperate wailing of humans.

The gods they believed in were more terrifying than demons.

Before this, he always thought that gods were holy, great, kind, spotless, and could not be looked up to or touched. They loved believers like children.

But at this moment, he understood that the so-called gods were nothing more than a group of powerful beasts filled with dirty desires.

The next day, Losferlis became pregnant.

Three years later, Losferlis gave birth to a baby, Rossweisse.

Augustus always had a strange feeling towards Rossweisse. On the one hand, she was the only blood of the woman he loved most. On the other hand, she was still flowing with the dirty blood of the gods that brought him unforgettable despair and pain.

Although Augustus did not know which of the seven gods Rossweisse was the descendant of.

When he saw Rossweisse, Augustus felt pity, disgust and hatred in his heart. It was a very contradictory feeling.

Rossefiris had completely collapsed. The once simple and beautiful girl had gone completely crazy because of the tragic torture of the whole night.

The pure saint craved for the opposite sex day and night. Her eyes had become empty and lost their original brilliance.

Augustus knew that was not the nature of Rossefiris. She was a very strong woman. Even if she was treated cruelly like hell, he believed that she could stand up again.

But the power of the gods was too strong.

Augustus only witnessed it and felt that his soul was hit hard. Blood was pouring out of his eyes and his consciousness was about to collapse.

Losphillis was played with by the gods and was directly hit by the breath of the gods. The seeds of the gods were implanted in her body. These powers were beyond Losphillis's ability to bear.

The will of the saint was completely crushed to pieces at that moment.

From that day on, Augustus's faith in his heart had completely collapsed.

The most devout gods only treated them as pathetic toys, trampled on them at will, and played with them at will...

His devout faith turned into the flame of revenge. He began to pursue power and strength frantically, no matter how despicable the means were, and finally climbed to the position of Pope.

He wanted to raise the banner of resistance to the gods.

He wanted to kill the gods!

But the more he knew about the gods, the more Augustus felt his own insignificance.

He knew the truth of this world.

People cannot defeat the gods.

Only the power outside the world can fight against the gods.

When he understood this, Augustus was almost in despair until the hero appeared.

The hero from another world controlled the power outside the Sky Continent, which was his only hope.

However, after experiencing that incident, Augustus' will had become extremely paranoid and crazy. Even God would treat his devout believers like this, let alone the hero from another world. He didn't trust anyone. Only when he had this power completely in his own hands could he feel completely at ease.
