Abyssal Chronicles

Chapter 348 - 349 : Ophelia [2/2]

The soul of the founding emperor, most revered by the people of the Snow Night Empire, has now shattered before the public eye. The people’s strong belief in the ancestral spirit was shaken.

Moreover, the hero in their hearts, Xue Tianao, died directly in this War.

That is to say,

now,

The two major factors that hindered their Church from expanding its influence in Snow Night Empire no longer exist. Hmm, even if the Spirit Religion still has a certain influence, their poor performance in this battle is enough to destroy people’s trust in them.

In Nick’s viewpoint, if they took advantage of the situation now, they could surely expand the influence of Asumos Church on a large scale within the territory of Snow Night Empire.

This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

If he could successfully expand his power, perhaps his poor performance in this battle could be covered up.

As for treating the refugees and assisting Snow Night Empire, of course, it’s just an excuse for them to act. As for the life and death of these heretics and lowly people, Nick Didn’t care.

Although many people are well aware of this, on the surface, necessary efforts still have to be made. It must be done grandiosely.

However,

Under the gaze of a group of believers, his own son, and the Girl of Destiny, this truth was so blatantly revealed, and Nick was naturally very unhappy. His old face suddenly darkened, and he looked up at the sky angrily.

"Archbishop Nick, we’re all on the same side here. Do you need to Make a show?"

"Ophelia... you..."

Nick clenched his fists and made a very upset sound,

At this moment,

Above the hall, a woman with long brown hair was leisurely sitting on the crossbeam, with a mocking look at Nick and others below.

The brunette woman had a mysterious smile on her face and a slender figure. Her brown hair was draped over her shoulders, tied lightly with two dark green ribbons.

She was wearing a black dress with the emblem of Asumos Church, and slightly heroic black boots. Two curved blades hung at her waist. The woman looked like a girl in her prime, appearing around eighteen years old. Her skin was as white as snow, her face as clear as jade, as if the crescent moon was glowing, as if a snow-covered flower tree, she was incredibly beautiful.

The diamond-shaped pupils in her silver-irised eyes added an indescribable unique charm to her.

In terms of beauty, this brunette girl naturally could not compare to Mengxi, but she was definitely a standout. However, it’s normal, after reaching the eighth level, the body undergoes a qualitative evolution, for a powerhouse at this level, the concept of ’ugly’ seemingly doesn’t exist.

However,

After such an attractive woman met Nick’s upset gaze, she suddenly broke into a slightly creepy smile,

A chill of terror and an air of insanity suddenly shrouded the girl,

Within the hierarchy of Asumos church,

The position of the Archbishop is undoubtedly higher than that of the Apostle.

However, when facing Nick, there was not a shred of awe, or even respect, in the eyes of this Apostle named Ophelia. All there was a thick mockery and madness. Thus, under the complex gazes of everyone, Ophelia stuck out her tongue, playfully waving her hand:

"Please, Archbishop, don’t look at me like that. It’s as if I said something wrong?!"

"As crazy as ever..."

’Just like your damn boss Mokaro ’

’Both are annoying like hell!’

"Hmph!"

Nick snorted, but did not scold the other angrily.

After all,

Arguing with a woman who is neurotic all day long is like playing a lute to a cow. Besides, this brat is not weak. If she suddenly starts fighting like in their past encounter, the one who suffers will still be him.

’After all, Bai Yanluo is still lying on the bed!’

Considering that no one on the scene could suppress Ophelia, Nick retracted the anger on his face.

"Forget it, I won’t argue with you."

Saying that,

Nick put his hands behind his back, and dissipated the strong holy aura around him, directly returning to his usual kindly and benevolent old man state.

"So, Ophelia, what brought you here suddenly? It can’t just be to undermine me, can it?"

"Ah? This?"

With a slight smile, Ophelia jumped up and turned into a silver light that suddenly appeared in front of Nick.

In an instant, a strong force of holy power surged like a giant wave, suddenly sweeping toward everyone around. Although the silver light was dazzling, it contained a trace of bloodlust, making everyone feel a shiver without coldness.

Some people with insufficient strength even became weak-legged and sat directly on the ground.

Ophelia is indeed the top combat power of Asumos Church, but as an Apostle who should give the followers a feeling of security, sometimes the feeling of crisis that Ophelia gives to the followers is even more intense than the abyssal demon.

Even Nick couldn’t help but retreat repeatedly,

’Damn brat!’

"What is it that you need from me? Just say it."

"Looking for you… Ah, strictly speaking, the one who wants to find you is not me."

"Hmm? What do you mean by that?"

Nick frowned slightly, a bad feeling arose in his heart,

And the next moment,

With Ophelia’s playful words, his feeling was shockingly confirmed.

"Archbishop Nick, the Pope wants to see you, and orders you to return to the church immediately."

’What?!!’

Upon hearing this, Nick’s eyes suddenly narrowed,

Seeming to recall some terrifying experience, upon hearing the word ’Pope’, Nick’s body couldn’t help but tremble slightly.

"You... you said, the Pope wants... wants to see me?"

"Yes, Archbishop Nick, you know, I don’t like to joke."

Seeing the fear in his eyes, the smile on Ophelia’s face was even brighter. She was quite satisfied with Nick’s trembling performance.

" Also~"

Saying this, Ophelia directly ignored the shivering Nick in front of her, instead turning her gaze to the silver-haired girl behind Nick, who possessed a beauty that could overthrow cities: "Additionally, Miss Girl of Destiny, the Pope also wants to see you. You should come back with us too"

Mengxi: "..."

Meanwhile,

In the camp of the Black Rose family,

Looking at the main tent in the center of the camp, Liyu, who was hiding in the bushes with her sisters, couldn’t help but show a complex expression. Liyu’s thoughts naturally returned to over an hour ago.

Originally, the little girl was quite happy when she saw a terrifying aura emerging from the tent and heard Mengxi’s screams.

After all,

If Mother directly eliminated the Girl of Destiny, then in this world, they would have no more concerns! A beautiful life without the threat of the Chosen Ones was about to come!

When the Girl of Destiny’s screams became fainter and finally completely inaudible, Liyu already had the urge to jump up and cheer.

However,

Before being happy for long,

Relying on her extraordinary hearing, the lingering voice of the Girl of Destiny was once again caught by Liyu’s ears, instantly disappointing the gray-haired little girl. What made Liyu even more at a loss, however, was that this time Mengxi’s voice was not a piercing scream, but...

A sultry moans…

In an instant, Liyu’s face turned as red as a ripe apple, her emerald eyes shrank sharply, and she even tremblingly raised her finger and pointed at the tent not far away.

’?!!’

"What, what... what on earth happened there?!! Why is she moaning like that?!"

Barely imagining the explicit scene of her mother and that girl intertwined, Liyu’s face turned red, and she felt a sense of hysteria,

"That damn Girl?!! She...she and my Mom?! No, that can’t be True?! How could Mommy do something like that..."

Liyu anxiously raised her hand to clutch her head,

And what made Liyu more headache,

Yuan’er, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly raised her hand to pull her sleeve, and asked with an incredibly innocent tone:

"Um, sister Liyu, what are Mom and that sister doing? Why are they making such sounds?"

’?!!’

’Huh?’

"Ah this..."

Looking into her younger sister’s innocent eyes, Liyu suddenly felt a conflict, involuntarily pursing her lips.

As the saying goes, when it rains it pours,

Just as Liyu was quickly thinking about how to explain to her sister, the huge white wolf on the other side also stuck her head next to Liyu:

"Woof, woof, woof?" (What are mom and that Girl doing? The Girl of Destiny seems to be enjoying it?)

Limo howls were Filled with innocence and curiosity,

However, facing her foolish sister rub salt into her wounds, Liyu’s brow twitched, and she couldn’t help but roar inside.

’Stupid sister! Why are you also messing up?!!’

At this moment, Liyu suddenly felt like crying but had no tears.

...

...

Fortunately, in the end, by relying on her own gift of the gab, and the bullshitting ability she learned from Sebastian, Liyu barely managed to convince Limo and Yuan’er about the ’playing game’ explanation.

Then,

Liyu encountered a very embarrassing problem,

That is,

Limo and Yuan’er were even more curious about this game, they wondered what game could make one feel so good and comfortable to let out a pleasurable moan like that? They took Liyu’s hand and wanted to try this ’game’ with her…

Liyu: "..."
