Capítulo 797: Chapter D287: Cup of Heaven
“Do you want to be the Proxy Saintess?”
[Luck 10, Hero activates skill: On Light]
D120=d120(17)=17 ( 0)
Seeing the Hero’s seemingly troubled expression, the Noble Lady’s initially lively expression gradually turned calm, showing a trace of worry.
“Does Hero sister not want to?”
“—Oh, why wouldn’t I want to?”
Before the Hero could respond, the air behind her suddenly rippled with Magic Power. From the wavering space, another her with black hair and red eyes peeked out from behind her shoulder, with a seductive smile on her face, looking at the Noble Lady with appreciation.
“Finally, soone who isn’t a small fry can see that this position of the Saintess was reserved for long ago.”
The Hero shook her head helplessly.
Upon hearing she might beco a Saintess Candidate, her other self cheered secretly and then asked to join the conversation.
The Hero didn’t refuse, but was sowhat worried about how the Noble Lady would view this completely different her.
“You…” Seeing the other Hero with sun-kissed skin, the Noble Lady was slightly taken aback, but quickly regained her composure.
“You’re the Hero sister’s other side, right? Uncle Sergeant ntioned you.”
The Hero’s wicked self… Although during the ti the Hero was active at the Border, the Noble Lady had already returned to the Capital—so even outsiders and the people in the Holy Snake Church thought the two were unrelated—the Noble Lady had naturally heard in detail about the Hero’s experiences during rapid training with the Count.
The Corrupted Phoenix’s curse was undoubtedly as troubleso as the Four-winged King’s blessing.
Though compared to the buried Corrupted Phoenix, the threat of the Four-winged King was undeniably greater, the Noble Lady had considered finding a chance to help the Hero shake off this shadow.
After all, the Hero sister wasn’t very smart to begin with, and with this curse, she really didn’t dare to imagine what she’d beco.
However, after arriving in the Holy City, Sergeant’s reports surprisingly revealed to her that the curse had already been tad by the Hero.
Really, when with Hero sister, there’s never a lack of surprises no matter the ti.
Though her thoughts were complicated, the Noble Lady still smiled and extended her hand to the Depraved Hero.
“Nice to et you, other Hero sister, though you should know .”
“You little squirt… your gaze doesn’t seem very polite, huh?” The Depraved Hero raised an eyebrow but also extended her hand to shake with the Noble Lady.
“But oh well, since you said so much earlier, I assu you’re quite familiar with the various Guilds of the Church, right?”
Before she finished speaking, she spun around, summoned another chair indoors with a casual gesture, and it flew behind her, where she promptly plopped down on it.
“I wouldn’t dare say I know everything, but I should know enough?” The Noble Lady replied modestly.
“Then that’s fine.” Moving the teacup and snacks aside, she slapped the paper and pen, which had appeared in her hand at so point, onto the table, looking excited with a gleam of daring in her eyes.
“Since I’m already the Saintess, it ans the Church Court is already in my pocket.”
“When did I beco the Saintess, it’s just a rumor about a proxy, right…”
Completely ignoring the Hero’s remarks, the Depraved Hero confidently crossed her legs, while the Magic Feather Pen gifted by the Traveling Assistant Teacher in her hand danced gracefully on the paper, leaving behind a string of elegant and flowing words.
“Now, let’s first discuss how to transform this Church into the way I want!”
“Hey, hey…” The Noble Lady’s eyes widened.
[Noble Lady’s interest in abuse of power (Count’s education -30)]
D70=45
She curiously leaned forward, looking at the long list of preparations for abusing power that the Depraved Hero had listed, feeling a bit tempted for a mont, but then recalling the Count’s teachings, she coughed lightly, lifted her head, and looked at the Hero on the side.
“Don’t listen to her, she just knows how to make trouble,” the Hero held her forehead helplessly.
“What, you have the nerve to say that? Don’t tell you don’t want to be the Saintess at this point,” the Depraved Hero tapped the table lightly.
“So what does the Hero sister think?” The Noble Lady seized the opportunity to ask again.
Though the Depraved Hero even wrote out the list of tasks after becoming the Saintess, the Noble Lady understood that as the opposite of the Hero sister, her opinion was only for reference.
“It’s not that I don’t want to… If I didn’t want to be the Saintess, I wouldn’t have participated in the selection in the first place.” The Hero shook her head with a smile.
“Even though it’s just being a proxy, if I really got chosen, I would still feel very honored.
“But since it’s such a big deal…” The Hero’s voice grew softer, falling into contemplation.
“Why are you being so wishy-washy.”
“Stop always thinking about causing trouble, stay quiet for a mont.”
“Tsk~”
[Hero’s thoughts]
D95 50=d95(68) 50=118
[Noble Lady’s thoughts (rational institution 50)]
D144 50=d144(96) 50=146
Seeing the Hero seriously pondering, the Noble Lady didn’t ask further, her wine-red pupils shimring with a rational Radiance.
Although not much ti had passed, the Hero was no longer the newcor who needed her to explain what the Six Major Guilds were, and she herself had grown a lot too.
If it’s the Hero sister, maybe…
The Noble Lady took a deep breath, then suddenly asked:
“Hero sister, regarding the blessing on you… Do you rember what happened back then in the Capital?
“Is it really out of your own will that you want to beco the Saintess?”
Her expression slightly tense, she watched the reactions of the two Heroes, both expectant and fearful.
