Have you come to the wrong place?
update icon Updated at 2025/5/11 12:10:12

Seeing that there was nothing to do, the two nuns left the hallway and went to their rooms on the second floor to rest and wait.

Their submissive attitude made them extremely humble, and they would never eavesdrop on a conversation unless ordered to do so.

There was no trace of humanity in them; they were like puppets, but more useful than puppets...

"Now there's only you and me left here," the Holy Maiden said cheerfully, her eyes searching the goddess in front of her, as if looking for the shadow of her beloved.

Freya felt extremely uncomfortable under her penetrating gaze; it made her feel more uneasy than if she had been stripped naked and tossed onto a bed for Wang Xiaole to look at.

Just as the ambiguous atmosphere filled the room, the Holy Maiden took a step forward, her shoes moving closer.

"Please tell me: where did you meet that man? Can you let me meet him as well?"

If Freya were to answer "no" now, she would definitely not be able to leave the church smoothly, and she would continue to be trapped in a corner of the room by the Holy Maiden.

Fortunately, she could give the answer the other wanted to hear.

Different people, at the same time without error, spoke almost the same words:

"Can I meet him tonight?"

"Should I let you meet him tonight?"

The difference in wording was minimal, but the emotions contained within were completely different.

Freya had not forgotten her ultimate goal since the beginning; whenever she had the chance, she would immediately try to sell Wang Xiaole, as anxious as a warehouse owner with inventory.

The Holy Maiden felt that she had somewhat understood the goddess in front of her.

If Freya wanted to lie in person, it would be very easy to see through that lie; dealing with a god without any tricks was quite relaxed!

The two agreed to meet at night, and the Holy Maiden would arrive at the hotel address provided by Freya on time or even earlier.

"Promise me, you have to come; I have placed great hope on you."

What hope was it exactly?

Before Holy Maiden had the chance to ask, she received several admonitions from her "good friend":

"Make sure you come prepared, it's best to bring weapons like a shovel or a brick, and if you can, wear a metal shield."

"Am I going to meet someone... or go to battle? Why do I need those offensive and defensive items?"

"You don't know! There's a terrifying woman staying in the hotel, she's fierce and hideous..."

In Freya's mind, Lucia was definitely more terrifying and ferocious than a monster; once she met Wang Xiaole, she might face a threat to her life; or on the way home, that woman might hit her on the head and throw her into a moat.

"I'm not joking, that woman is extremely dangerous! Before going to the hotel, you must be extra cautious, careful, and careful."

After a heartfelt warning, the Holy Maiden felt a slight affection for the goddess, and she realized that no matter if her suggestions were followed or not, one should always accept relevant kindness.

"I remember, let's meet tonight."

The person smiled, bid farewell, personally opened the door and watched Freya leave. However, they didn't really pay much attention to the advice they had just received.

Danger?

The Holy Maiden asked herself inwardly:

Among the demon race, the divine race, and the humans, who could be more dangerous than herself?

After sending off a naive and foolish guest, in no time at all, the church welcomed another special guest.

After all, this was still a church.

Even during times of war, it served as an impenetrable military fortress, and at certain times, it was used for some shady activities...

But no one could deny that in times of peace, this place could be a haven for lost souls;

Complaints, confessions, repentance—anyone who entered this place could do anything that didn't violate the rules;

Just as one of the classic teachings stated:

"The embrace of God's spokesperson is forever open to the faithful!"

Whether God had actually said this was not something the Holy Maiden needed to consider. She simply suddenly thought:

If there was indeed a God with such a broad mind, who genuinely allowed beings to freely enter and exit the sacred place, then that God would never allow a certain kind of "lost lamb" to enter.

That "lamb" walked elegantly forward, the ancient praise "step by step lotus blooming" must be describing the current scene;

Even if the newcomer had a sorrowful expression and exuded the temperament of a melancholic beauty, the corners of her alluring eyes slackened weakly, causing the observer to be curious about the girl's experiences.

The Holy Maiden felt relieved:

If this girl had encountered the Cardinal in the red robe, he would definitely extend his lecherous hand;

At that time, in order to uphold the church's reputation, she would have to give that guy a profound lesson, which would surely add many complications...

"Excuse me, are you someone like a 'trusted sister'?"

The girl came before the Holy Maiden, causing the latter's eyebrows to arch upward;

Even if there was a God who was as "broad-minded as an ocean," they would certainly refuse the entry of this girl, because there was no God in the world who would be magnanimous enough to:

(whispering) "Allow the arrival of a demon lord!"
