Diary of the Improper Monster Girl Transformation.

Chapter 230 That Adult

Chapter 230 That Adult (4K)
"That human boy, he is the most arrogant human I have ever seen!"

In the underground secret place of the Ice and Snow Goddess Church, the proud Snow Elf Bishop snorted angrily, gnashed his teeth, and complained bitterly.

"Please believe me, I am not slandering him."

"Many of his fellow church members were deceived by his appearance and believed that he was really a pious and noble paladin."

Many of those naive believers were deceived by Herbert and only thought that he was a noble knight who knew etiquette.

That is not true!
"But I'm different. I can feel his true thoughts!"

Perhaps because her best friend was by her side, or perhaps because the girl in front of her made Leila feel relaxed, she spoke out all the words that had been hidden in her heart for a long time.

"He does have a handsome face that is no less handsome than an elf, and he also radiates a holy light... but those are just illusions, masks that cover up the truth!"

"arrogant."

"Behind that hypocritical face lies absolute arrogance."

Since that day, Leila has been able to recall the details of her conversation with Herbert from time to time, constantly reviewing her original responses.

"He seemed to be seeking cooperation from us, but in fact he was preparing from the beginning to use that saint to intimidate me and embarrass me!"

"If he had revealed his identity at the beginning and told me the saint's intention, how could I refuse?"

"There's only one explanation for why he would do that! He did it on purpose!"

Correct.

Those were all calculated.

He had been trying to set a trap for me.

Every step he took was to lure me into his trap.

Terrible humans!

A man with deep scheming.

I lost face in front of the goddess and almost lost her favor!
After hearing these words, Yuniel, the God-favored One, blinked her eyes and asked curiously, "So what you mean is that you hate him? You think he is an untrustworthy human being? A being of low character?"

Ok?
Leila, who was immersed in annoyance, suddenly came back to her senses, blinked quickly, and said hesitantly: "Uh! No, I don't think so."

"Oh?"

Yuniel blinked, suddenly interested, and asked, "Didn't you just say you hated him?"

"..."

Leila moved her lips, hesitated for a few breaths, and said slowly:

"I really don't like the way he treats me, and he is indeed arrogant, but I can't say that he has a low character. That... really isn't the case."

"From his personality, he is proud. I even suspect that he looks down on us..."

Thinking of the teasing look the other person gave her, she couldn't help biting her lip and said unwillingly:
"Although this makes me feel uncomfortable, to be honest, he does have the right to be arrogant."

She paused for a moment and explained softly to the two confused people:
"You may not know that during this period, the monks brought by Herbert have been helping the people of the Frost Crystal Kingdom."

"Herbert purchased a large amount of food, clothing and other supplies at his own expense, and had the monks distribute them to the weak in need for free, and help them treat their illnesses."

Even for this snow elf who has never lacked money, he can understand that this is definitely a considerable expense.

"Moreover, Herbert did this not to gain the faith of those people, nor did he even need their gratitude."

"Wait a minute, not asking for anything in return? Why are you so sure?"

Joanna took the initiative to ask. She felt that Leila seemed to be deceived by Herbert. Why did she keep explaining for him?

"because……"

Leila smiled bitterly and said helplessly: "Those who were helped did not know Herbert's name at all. They only knew that the Misty Monastery was helping them."

The expenses of feeding, clothing, housing and transportation for thousands of people could easily bankrupt a small noble.

But after paying such a huge price, he didn't want anything.

Not many people even know that he has done such a good deed.

"I...I can't figure out why he did that."

Leila really found it hard to understand Herbert's intention.

Do you just want to do some good deeds without expecting any other rewards?

Is it really just to keep them alive?
Or is this a way for the Paladin to fulfill the oath he made?
But it should be clear that even a paladin with high moral character would rarely behave in this way.

Most of them took a vow of poverty and would not keep any wealth except what was necessary for themselves, and distributed all of it to the poor.

This also makes it difficult for them to accumulate a large amount of wealth and make such a move.

Unless there are some particularly powerful paladins who, after hunting down monsters, exchange them for a large amount of wealth and distribute them all to the people in need.

But that situation is extremely rare.

There are very few noble paladins like Herbert who are financially strong and willing to share their wealth.

Yuniel listened for a while and then asked, "So you mean he is actually kind-hearted?"

"Kindness? Uh! Perhaps, it's not that kind..."

Leila shook her head violently, much more certain than before.

Is he kind?
What a joke!
"Herbert is the mastermind behind this turmoil in the kingdom. He manipulated everything and led us into this trap."

“He is the biggest executioner.”

"During this turmoil, at least a thousand people died because of him, including the royal heir and his blood relatives."

The nobles didn't know what caused this chaos, and all the blood feuds were blamed on Herbert.

But he didn't care at all and didn't think that he would become evil and degenerate because of it.

He even made a speechless but somewhat reasonable sarcasm:
"If what I did was wrong, I would have fallen by now.

"But since I am not corrupt, it proves that they are corrupt."

If I am guilty, then the gods will naturally punish me.

Since the gods didn't punish me, I'm going to punish them.

Joanna was speechless after hearing this, and asked in a low voice: "... Could this style of behavior be that of a Punishment Paladin?"

Leila shook her head, unable to give an accurate answer.

She really wasn't familiar with Herbert, there was no way to be sure.

"This man gives me a very complicated feeling... He does not hide his arrogance when facing the strong, but he does not hesitate to show his compassion to the weak."

"Is this hypocrisy? But it doesn't seem like it. I can't say which face is his true face."

"But I have to say that such an existence can indeed attract the attention of others unconsciously."

After hesitating for a moment, Leila unconsciously raised her hand and touched her ear, muttering to herself uncertainly:

"If I have to give a conclusion... Although he is arrogant and complicated, he is indeed the most charming human being I have ever met."

charming.

Compared with other characteristics, this is the evaluation that is left in the end.

Joanna raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard her friend's words. She was a little suspicious whether Leila had been bewitched by him and her love was aroused...

Yuniel's reaction was much calmer.

"I see. I think I understand."

The innocent-looking girl said "oh" and smiled at the two of them.

"Okay, you two continue chatting. I'm going to go play with other sisters."

She clapped her hands, waved at Leila, and turned to leave.

After watching Yuniel skipping away with her hands behind her back, Leila shook her head slightly as if waking up from a dream and let out a long breath.

"call……"

Seeing her like this, Joanna was a little worried at this time, and hurriedly asked: "Lila, are you okay? You..." "Wait a minute."

Leila raised her hand to signal others not to speak, and listened silently. She waited for a long time before she breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned her head and looked at Joanna, and asked very seriously: "Joanna, before telling me everything, answer me a question first."

"And, you must promise me in the name of your mother that you will not deceive me! I also promise you in the name of my disciple that I will not deceive you!"

The atmosphere in the secret place suddenly turned cold.

"..."

Joanna looked at Leila silently, and said slowly: "Are you sure you want to do this?"

Leila nodded slowly and said firmly, "I'm sure."

"Ah."

Johanna rolled her eyes and said speechlessly: “No, how many times are you going to tell this bad joke? Is it interesting?”

"Isn't my mother your only disciple?"

The half-elf priest thought that the elf was probably getting senile and started telling such tasteless jokes again.

Haha, boring!

"Hahaha!"

Leila couldn't hold back her expression, she laughed triumphantly, and snorted, "Who told you to look so serious? I'm not as nervous as you."

"Humph!"

After making her friend laugh, Leila calmed down a little and asked in a low voice, "If I'm not mistaken, it should be... that adult, right?"

Joanna was silent for a moment, turned her head to look in the direction where the girl Yuniel disappeared, and nodded slowly.

"……Um."

The two of them fell silent at the same time.

Although there is no evidence.

However, as for the true identity of Yuniel, the one favored by God, they both had a common candidate in mind.

Qualified to become a favored one of the Ice and Snow Goddess Church.

Those who have the ability to sneak into the church without being noticed.

That great being.

That's right.

He is...

The loving mother who doted on her goddess so much that she wished to protect her forever - the goddess of winter.

The two of them did not speak directly, but communicated in the most covert way.

"That master has come in another form?"

'Well, it's most likely Him.'

Although there has never been an official record of this, the fact that "the Goddess of Winter often transforms into a favored one of the Goddess of Ice and Snow" has been passed down orally among the top leaders of the Goddess Church for many years.

Those bishops who were qualified to know this secret all remained silent.

That can't be said to be turning a blind eye, that's simply closing the eyes completely.

We know nothing!
We didn't see anything!
You can play however you want!

Yes, for so many years.

The incarnation of the Goddess of Winter has become a god-favored one at least ten times, and no one has ever told the Goddess of Ice and Snow the truth.

And the Ice and Snow Goddess never let them down and never discovered the truth...

They still happily believed that they had discovered those talented geniuses and had easily and successfully brought them into their own pockets.

"……Ugh."

Leila and Joanna looked at each other, saw the helplessness in each other's eyes, and clinked their glasses in silence.

According to the doctrine, these people have committed the sin of deceiving the gods, and no one can escape punishment.

But...sometimes, the problem is not that way.

They simply cannot afford to offend the Winter Goddess.

Besides, their goddess is the most beloved pet of the Winter Goddess... They are the servants of the pet, and they are the servants of the servants. How can they have the qualifications to resist?

"That gentleman really loves to dote on the goddess!"

"Who said it wasn't..."

The relationship between gods is generally not that close. Many gods gather together just for the sake of profit, and their feelings for each other are very weak.

But the feelings that the Winter Goddess had for the Ice and Snow Goddess could no longer be considered goodwill; it was she simply doting on her excessively.

Leila sighed for a while and then stopped worrying about it.

No matter what the Goddess of Winter wants to do, they have no right to interfere, so just let her do it.

She was more worried about Joanna, who she had watched grow up, than the goddess, and asked anxiously: "What mission are you going to carry out? That adult is actually going to go there in an incarnation... Is it dangerous?"

Joanna nodded, then shook her head slowly and sighed:
"I don't know the specific content of the mission, I just know that we are asked to go to the outskirts of the Misty Mountains, and someone will come to pick us up when we arrive."

"Misty Mountains..."

Leila shook her head with emotion, a little fear flashed in her eyes, and whispered:
"Joanna, you must be careful. If there is any danger, you must protect Yuniel's safety!"

"Well, I understand what you mean."

Joanna shook her head slightly: "But I am the leader, and the safety of the other sisters is also my mission. I will not abandon them."

Protect Yuniel? That clearly meant that she would seek shelter from the Winter Goddess.

"Tsk, your stubborn personality is exactly like your mother's."

Leila held her forehead helplessly, hesitated for a moment and then said:

"Joanna, if you really encounter a danger that you cannot handle... you can ask the Misty Monastery for help. They will not stand by and watch you die."

Seeing her worried look, Joanna said with amusement, "But I'm not familiar with them. I'm afraid the name of the church is not enough."

"...Then go find Herbert and ask him to come forward."

The corner of Leila's mouth twitched, and she said unsurely: "If he asks, just say I asked you to go. If there is anything later, just let him come to me directly."

Joanna blinked and stared at Leila for a long moment with a strange look on her face.

stare--

Leila felt a little uncomfortable with that explicit look, and said evasively: "...What's wrong? Why do you look like that?"

"No, it's nothing."

Joanna finally retracted her gaze, shook her head with emotion, and sighed:

"I'm just a little curious about how attractive this man is that he could have attracted you."

Leila: ???
"What the hell are you talking about!?"

Joanna ignored Leila's defensive growl and continued to sigh:

"I really want to meet a man like this! I wonder if I'll have the chance to run into him this time."

……

Eldar territory.

Herbert looked at the empty territory, curled his lips, and said to himself: "Such a big place but there is nothing, it looks a bit empty."
