Damn, those rumors about the priests really seem to be true!
Looking at Chief Priest Karin, who looked shocked and anxious, and the Holy Maiden, whose hair was messy and clothes disheveled, Sera couldn’t help but recall the first rumor about the priests from Wangdu.
Because priests must dedicate both body and mind entirely to the Goddess of Life, once they enter the Church and become priests, they can no longer marry or have children, thereby maintaining purity.
But if this rule were truly strictly enforced, then the human birth rate would be a huge problem.
So if priests really want to reproduce, they can simply leave the Church.
But once they leave, they can no longer enjoy the Church’s preferential policies and benefits.
So before leaving the Church, if priests want to relieve their accumulated desires, their only option is their roommate in the same Dormitory…
Thus, gradually, a strange rumor about priests began to spread…
And now Sera, Emrod, Wilona, and Karin had all witnessed this rumor with their own eyes, and they were all shocked and curious. So priests really did…
And the reason Karin was so anxious in addition to being shocked was that she already knew about those “little things” between her students.
At first, the Church would strictly suppress this kind of impure relationship between priests, but later it turned a blind eye.
Even Karin, who was considered somewhat rigid, had no real solution for the Priestlings properly relaxing in secret.
As long as the students did not act out too much, she could not be bothered to make an issue of it.
After all, feeling hot all over for an entire night was truly uncomfortable, and she could understand that.
But the problem now was not that. It was why the Holy Maiden had also ended up like this!
After all, the Holy Maiden was the Goddess’s representative on earth!
If the Holy Maiden did this too, then it would be complete Blasphemy against the Goddess of Life!
As Chief Priest, Karin had to pull the Ninth Saintess back onto the right path!
First, the young Holy Maiden must be completely ignorant about such things.
And just now, she had also said that she was pinned down on the bed by Tia, so she was half a victim.
So this situation was most likely all that High Priestess Tia’s fault.
She had to strike Tia first with a heavy fist!
So Karin walked toward the room in a rage, and Truth tactfully stepped aside, allowing Karin to see Tia, who was hiding behind the door and trying to quietly warn Truth:
“Truth, you can’t say it like that, okay? It’s very easy for people to misunderstand if you say that… You… hello, Chief Priest…”
Tia and Karin had a somewhat awkward meeting, and Tia showed a somewhat awkward expression.
But Karin just looked at her with a dark face and no expression.
At that moment, Tia realized that the Chief Priest before her seemed to have misunderstood something:
“Um… Chief Priest, please listen to my explanation. It’s not like what the Holy Maiden said!”
“Mm-hmm, let’s hear it.”
The Chief Priest hooked the door shut with her left foot, shutting the Holy Maiden and Wilona outside, because what she was about to say to Tia might be a bit unsuitable for children and could corrupt the two young girls outside.
Meanwhile, outside the door, Wilona did not know what was going on with Karin just now.
Whatever, forget it. Now it was still her and Truth’s private time together:
“I don’t care about you being pinned down on the bed or whatever! I’ll just say it straight to you, Impostor. I’m demanding that you release the real Holy Maiden right now, meow!”
“The real Ninth Saintess?” Truth tilted her head, as if she had figured something out, then gradually revealed a playful expression:
“You mean that Ninth Saintess in the Mist?”
“That’s right, meow!” Wilona put her hands on her hips, looking as if she was sure to win:
“I’ve completely seen through your true face! But I don’t want to blow this up right now. I only want to resolve this peacefully. Otherwise, you know what I’m capable of, meow!”
Wilona took out the Beast God’s Bone Flute from her clothes and waved it in front of Truth.
“Huh? How can you say that?” Truth’s expression instantly switched to disappointed mode:
“I thought we were friends. I even gave you such a precious gift…”
“Uh, this… this is different! The reason you gave me so many precious gifts is that you were wary of my identity, so you just wanted to use them to get rid of me, meow!”
“But I really do want to be friends with you! Or did you come to Deya City only to be friends with the ‘Ninth Saintess’? If I weren’t the Saintess, then no matter how precious the gifts I gave you or how much I did for you, you wouldn’t even look at me, would you?”
“Uh…” Wilona was directly choked by Truth’s reply. This guy could actually say such a thing…
Wilona suddenly fell into thought. Could it be that this “Truth” really wanted to be friends with her?
No… wait! She had just not denied that she was an Impostor!
No, she couldn’t be led astray by her. This was not a matter of friends or not!
Wilona continued:
“What I want to talk about now isn’t me being friends with you. It’s about the Ninth Saintess, meow! Hurry up and release the Saintess. If you really want to be friends with me, then don’t do things that hurt others, meow!”
“Sigh…” Truth’s originally disappointed expression instantly changed into another face.
She slightly raised her chin, looking very mocking:
“What if I don’t?”
“No? If you refuse, then I’ll directly call on the Beast God to punish you, meow!”
Wilona directly got into position to blow the Bone Flute.
As long as the Beast God backed her up, she would be invincible in Deya City!
No matter what the purpose of this Impostor Ninth Saintess before her was, Wilona was certain that the real Ninth Saintess must be a victim!
As an upright Adventurer and member of the Northern Royal Family, Wilona absolutely had to stand up for the real Ninth Saintess!
“Beast God?” After hearing about the Beast God, Truth smiled slightly, then closed her eyes, interlocked her fingers in front of her, and began to pray:
“Punish me? Then wait a moment. Let me ask the Beast God and see what He says.”
Truth immediately put on a devout praying posture, leaving Wilona stunned.
What was going on? This Impostor was actually calling on the Beast God?
Hmph, obviously fake! You’re an impostor priest, and you think you can call on the Beast God? Do I look that easy to fool?
Soon, Truth raised her head and opened her eyes:
“The Beast God just said He won’t concern Himself with this matter.”
“I see you won’t take the easy way and insist on the hard way, meow!
Do you take me for a three-year-old? You dare to put on such an act and mock the Beast God in front of me. Then I won’t waste any more words. Take this!”
With that, Wilona directly put the Bone Flute to her mouth and played the melody to call the Beast God, while reciting in her heart:
“Beast God! Wilona calls upon your…”
“Cough, cough…” Suddenly, before Wilona could finish her prayer, the Beast God’s voice sounded directly in Wilona’s mind:
“Um, Wilona, there’s no need for me to intervene in such a small matter. With your own abilities alone, you can completely rescue the real Ninth Saintess. Don’t worry, I’ll back you up. Just treat rescuing the real Ninth Saintess as a trial I’m giving you!”
What? Wilona was stunned for a moment. The Beast God had actually given her a trial at this time?
Normally, Wilona would be quite happy to hear “trial,” because a trial meant rewards and adventure.
But now she could not be happy, because she had discovered that the Impostor before her had actually gotten one thing right: the Beast God really was not going to concern Himself with this matter!
Could the Impostor Saintess really have negotiated with the Beast God just now?
No way. She must have guessed it by luck. She’s still playing me!
Meanwhile, in the shadows, Shadow Guard Sera frowned as she looked at Wilona:
“Where did this little cat in a strange Priest Robe come from? She started saying the Holy Maiden is an Impostor, and even said she would invite the Beast God of the Beast Race to punish the Ninth Saintess… What do you think? Should we go help the Ninth Saintess? I keep feeling this little cat is not quite right in the head.”
“No need for that for now,” Emrod replied:
“Didn’t you see that playful expression on the Holy Maiden’s face? She isn’t taking this Beastman girl seriously at all. And just now she even pretended to call on the Beast God to tease the Beastman girl and directly made the latter furious. You can tell she’s enjoying herself very much. So let’s not disturb the Ninth Saintess’s fun for now. Otherwise, if she blames us, we’ll get nothing but trouble. We’ll step in when the Holy Maiden needs help.”…
