Chapter 748 The Three Saintesses' Afternoon Tea

Beside the lake on the southwest side of the plain.

The lush green grass reached past my ankles, and the clear lake reflected the clouds and blue sky. The interplay of light and shadow created a scene reminiscent of a painting.

Sheila and Vimier sat in front of a picnic blanket with an exquisite afternoon tea set out on it. The aroma of black tea filled the natural setting, and the pastries looked delicate and delightful.

"call……"

Sheila had wondered why she'd been brought to the Holy King's Army, but it turned out it was just like always, only the location for the outing had changed...

Meanwhile, the high priest was on the other side, watching over a gray-haired girl with tentacles growing from her back.

"Woo..."

Jasmine looked timidly at the tall, dark figure in front of her. If she hadn't repeatedly touched it to confirm, she would have found it hard to believe that the person inside was Luo Wei.

"Is there anything that feels uncomfortable?" Rowe asked.

"No, not really... I'm just... scared..."

Even the tone of voice changed... It's a bit scary, frightening.

Looking at her, Luo Wei gently pinched her tentacle, and the girl immediately reacted as if she had been attacked by a creepy uncle.

"Touch... tentacles too..." Jasmine said, her face flushed as she clenched her little hands.

Is this so...

She seemed to be able to move freely on the ground, but that was all. Touching others was still a taboo. After he grabbed Mei Qiuli and tried it once, she cried loudly and said that she would never believe him again when he said it didn't hurt.

The tentacles behind her couldn't retract naturally either, and they looked like external organs, such as wings or a tail.

Hmm... the soft, squishy feel is actually quite nice.

To apologize to Mei Qiuli, Luo Wei had already invited her over for afternoon tea and snacks. In the end, the Sleep Demon believed him one more time and came over, sitting with Jasmine at a slight distance from the other two.

On one hand, it was to keep Jasmine company so she wouldn't be too lonely, and on the other hand, in case anything happened, Jasmine's corruption could be absorbed immediately without affecting the other two.

Sheila: "..."

Sheila still didn't quite understand. Although she was the one who came to the Holy Queen's Army, the only person guarding them was her High Priest. How could the Fifth Princess and the Church of Prayer feel at ease with such an arrangement?

She felt that... the other person had indeed given her enough trust, and although she didn't understand why, this feeling wasn't bad.

"Hehe... Actually, I met Sheila back in Uncrowned City."

“Is…is that so?” Sheila raised her head slightly. “Actually, I have…seen your healing and singing performances before.”

Back then, she felt that the other person was from a completely different world, but since the High Priest came along, she no longer envies the other person as much as she did back then.

What was I doing when you saw me?

"Well……"

Vimiel hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped herself.

I told you I was the High Priestess of the Underworld, and then you suddenly knelt down in front of me...

"No...but when I saw you back then, I felt that you would become a saint."

"really?"

Hilla was slightly surprised.

But for Vimir, it was simply a case of what he said back then coming true. Who could have predicted that the reckless and impulsive Sheila from back then would have grown into the person she is today?

"Why didn't your Holy Maiden come to keep you company?" Sheila asked.

“Him… hahaha…” Vimir glanced around, then suddenly remembered something, “By the way, Sheila, what is the strictest restriction your high priest wants to impose on you?”

"The strictest...?"

Hilla paused for a moment and then said, "If I don't do as he wants, he'll drown me in the forest pond..."

Vimiel paused for a moment, then continued, "He wanted me to turn myself into a wild boar and then release me back into the mountains..."

Sheila opened her mouth slightly, then looked at Jasmine on the tablecloth beside her.

"What about Jasmine?"

"Jasmine?"

“She…I know her,” Vimir scratched her face, a little embarrassed, and said, “She was tied to a catapult and then launched…”

"Jasmine?!"

The three fell silent for a moment, then released it back into the mountains, the forest submerged in the pond, and launched it...

Those that run on land, swim in water, and fly in the sky
Now we have everything.

……

Meanwhile, on the Skywing.

"Hahaha! Lia Lan, why didn't you say so earlier?" Celis said with a laugh. "If I had known it was Lo Wei, I wouldn't have rushed over!"

"Given the way you got here, was there any way we could have notified you in advance?"

Lia Lan asked expressionlessly, "So, what's the situation on the Black Abyss side?"

“They said they felt it could be suppressed for ten or eight years,” Celis said, rubbing her nose. “Love told me to bring dice, and Anai Ning reminded me to bring Sen coins. When I didn’t know which way to go, I would roll the dice. I didn’t expect that we would actually run into a strange merchant inside who could exchange Sen coins for information!”

Lia Lan: "?"

Shatis: "?"

No matter how you look at it, both of them were definitely due to luck.

“They only valued the power of the runes on the coin,” Celis said with a smile, “so I thought I’d definitely thank those two guys properly when I got back!”

Liyalan glanced at Shatis with a complicated expression, then sighed, unsure of what to say.

“But Lialan,” Celis looked at her, “I feel like your attitude towards Lovi has completely changed. Didn’t you used to dislike him a lot?”

"After all, Luo Wei saw every part of her body, twice."

"Hey! Shatis!" Lialan quickly interrupted her.

Celis stared at the two of them, momentarily stunned.

"Pfft...Really? I never expected this. Lia Lan, you actually have a chance to rise from the ashes?"

"I told you long ago we shouldn't have gotten involved in their affairs!"

The three members of the Church of Prayer started chatting, but soon Lia Lan found herself unable to continue the conversation with Celis, who kept asking her questions.

"That's the saintess's man."

"I already said it's because of his relationship with Altina!"

"Wouldn't that make the problem even more serious, Goddess Agent?"

"..."

"Lialan, should we show her the leg ring that Luo Wei gave you?"

"Love even gave me something like this?? No way, I have to ask him for a gift too!" Seeing Celis turn around and leave in a hurry, Shatis glanced at Lialan. You know she's only good at fighting.

"However, you didn't tell me about Lovi's connection to the goddess?" Shatis frowned.

"That is……"

“She knows perfectly well that you and I keep these things absolutely secret,” Celis said with a smile, turning around. “She’s probably up to something.”

"Didn't I tell you this as soon as you arrived?!" Liya Lan said seriously.

“And what about me?” Chatis looked at her. “I am an apostle of the goddess, so our relationship should be no more distant than yours.”

"I don't think it's necessary to tell you deliberately, but I never intended to hide it from you two."

"Oh, is it so."

Shatis looked at Celis, "Now you know why I left Lezhiman and went to various branches to find the Saintess, right?"

"Yeah yeah."

Celis nodded repeatedly.

Lia Lan frowned and rubbed her eyes. She would catch the person who did that to her sooner or later. This level of trick didn't even trigger her magical perception.

"I'm not talking to you anymore, I have something to do."

She beat Celis to the punch and went out of the room through the door.

The remaining two people in the room exchanged a glance, and Celis helplessly pursed her lips and shrugged.

Shatis: "..."

You're no pushover either.

Every time the three of us get together like this, there's always some endless trouble to come up with.

……

Lakeside.

"Hila, your boots are so nice."

"Is that so? I had the bootmaker make these for me. I liked the style as soon as I saw them, and they're very comfortable to wear. They're not cold in this weather either."

Will it have a smell?

"The taste?" Hilla paused for a moment. "It...it shouldn't be like that, right?"

She glanced nervously to the side, thinking how embarrassing it would be if she smelled bad when she slept with the high priest that night.

"Can I see it?"

"Huh? That's possible..."

Without hesitation, Sheila took off the boots and handed them to her. Vimiel took them and first examined the material, then carefully sniffed them.

"It...it shouldn't have much of a smell, right?" Sheila asked anxiously.

If the other saintess smelled your feet or something, that would be too... and why would saintesses...

"No, there really isn't any, but the inside of the boots is still warm."

Studying the opponent
As soon as Liya Lan stepped off the warship, she saw her own saintess smelling the other saintess's boots.

"?"

She frowned in confusion, an expression of disbelief on her face, when suddenly a dark, imposing figure over two meters tall appeared before her.

Liya Lan looked up in horror at the face wrapped in bandages, her face trembling involuntarily.

"It's really hard for anyone to resist taking action against you when you look like that."

"Isn't this because I'm afraid it will bring back some bad memories for you?"

"..."

Don't bring it up a second time. She's already indignant enough and wishes she could slap him a second time right now. But he's the only one who would say something like that.

Luo Wei looked at her in surprise.

Why is this woman so angry? Her veins are bulging... Was it really necessary just to ease the awkwardness?

Liya Lan looked over and saw that Vimir had also taken off her boots for Sheila to examine. She frowned and said, "The Temple of War Gods has been pursuing the remnants of the Church of the Origin of All Things. Judging from their contact, they do not intend to be our enemy. Their attack on the army of the Saintess of the Harp Sound is also a way to avenge the Pope and their saintess."

Lo Wei nodded.

The biggest factor was seeing that the current god was on their side.

This means that a new faction of the War Gods will take over, such as the white-haired third angel, Finel. With the Pope and cardinals all dead, a major internal reshuffle is inevitable.

As for the Origin Church...

Having her backside attacked by the Yin God Cult, being besieged and intercepted by the Temple of War Gods, and having her hometown wiped out by the Senkamanda army of the White Witch, Nege, who ultimately became the victor in the betrayal, suffered the most tragic fate.

Even their second-level gods are being hunted down by the second-level gods of the Temple of War Gods, and the Goddess of the Azure Moon is determined not to let them go.

Having resolved this war, all that remains is to go to the Shadow of Melendall to find Randall. There is still a little over a year until the designated date. Considering the preparation and assembly of the army, it should take about two months to complete. And now there is no force on the continent that can stop them, which in some ways matches my original plan to complete the army's mobilization within a year.

Inviting Hillary to visit would also dispel any doubts on either side.

But those two are really something...

After speaking with Liya Lan, Luo Wei returned to the other side, where Shira was holding Vimir's boots, looking a little dazed: "High Priest... why do her boots smell so good?"

"Oh, is it so."

Luo Wei glanced at the traitor, then bent down, grabbed her ankle, and pulled her up.

Vimiel: "Huh...huh!"

Sheila: "...Huh?"

Although she hadn't expected the high priest to be so rude to the saintess of the Church of Prayer, she had to admit that the other woman's current state... looked rather alluring.

Lovi looked at the soft lines of her feet beneath her silk stockings, then released her. Vimier sat there, her face flushed and still shaken.

Waaah... I got teased by the other party's priest... even though it was him...

Sheila swallowed slightly: "Um... High Priest, actually I also..."

Before she could finish speaking, the black and red vine whip hooked around her ankle and with a swish, hoisted her up.

"ah--!"

Hanging upside down in mid-air, Sheila blushed and covered her skirt.

"Why would someone do this even on a picnic?!"

Lia Lan, who was not far away, watched this scene and her lips trembled.

She now believed that his holy maiden had been thoroughly infiltrated by him.
