Chapter 243: Chapter 157: Asina’s Voice (Requesting Monthly Tickets and Recommendations)_2

Instantly, Asina swiftly cut off the message, leaving Rose Vesper somewhat bewildered.

However, Rose Vesper didn’t think much of it, since she had just woken up and indeed had many matters to attend to.

...

Elsewhere.

In the palace.

Half an hour later, Asina finally started to get ready as she had said she would.

Her face was filled with reproach, as she glared at Qin Chu.

This guy was indeed too wicked, knowing full well that she was just messaging Rose Vesper with magic, yet he deliberately acted that way... He almost made her slip up in front of Rose Vesper.

Qin Chu only chuckled mischievously, actually wishing Asina would continue sending long-distance messages to Rose Vesper, as that would have been more thrilling, but unfortunately Asina was not cooperative.

Asina’s cheeks were blushing, and her hair was damp with sweat, giving off an astonishing charm and allure, making Qin Chu’s mouth water.

If he hadn’t known that it was not the right time, Qin Chu really would have wanted another round.

Asina did not avoid Qin Chu, and directly changed into her usual magic robe in front of him, tossing a bundle of black material at Qin Chu, "You said it was a thank you gift for me, yet you tore it again."

"Forget it, I have more important things to deal with, I won’t argue with you now."

With those words, Asina left the room, swaying her sensual hips.

As Asina’s figure disappeared, the smile remained on Qin Chu’s face, but his aura gradually turned gloomy. Although the message magic was meant for Asina, he was very close to Asina at the time...

So, he caught a bit of the conversation.

Aili, Silf appeared.

Reflecting on his mental image of these two, they were not easy opponents to deal with.

Silf was like a sniper on Earth, her bow capable of aiming at targets thousands of kilometers away, her magic arrows able to pierce through your head without you noticing.

As for Aili, despite her innocent and lovely appearance, like a naïve girl, Aileen and Aili, the sisters, had countless methods of killing. They would use every means possible to end their target’s life, be it assassination, poisoning, or surprise attacks, they stopped at nothing.

Rose Vesper summoning Asina must be concerning a main topic, right?

It’s probable that Asina would not tell him what exactly they discussed.

But, someone else would.

Qin Chu’s eyes moved to the hall, where a crimson-clad lady was quickly approaching.

That was Catherine, the most hidden and loyal spy Qin Chu had placed within the Hero Team.

"Master, as for Rose Vesper..."

"I already know the situation. Go there now, and remember to disguise well as I previously instructed. You must not let them notice anything unusual about you, understand? At times, to shift suspicion off yourself, you might even need to be more proactive."

Catherine took a deep breath and nodded heavily, then quickly left.

Watching Catherine’s retreating back, Qin Chu’s gaze turned cold.

Catherine and Asina, Qin Chu would not let them die too soon, as these two women still had uses, being excellent spies in the Hero Team.

Once the members of the Hero Team were almost all eliminated, it would then be time for their missions and lives to end.

He was looking forward to the moment when he could crush Jie Luo’s Soul Fragment in front of Catherine and awaken the Crimson Valkyrie from manipulation, and tell Asina that there was no such thing as Jie Luo’s residual soul, that it was all his own doing. He wondered what expression the two women would have.

...

After a long wait, Catherine and Asina finally appeared in Rose Vesper’s boudoir.

The five women embraced each other enthusiastically, although their thoughts were entirely different.

Asina, behind her smiling face, hid deep suspicions. Her gaze swept over Rose Vesper, Silf, and Aili, suspecting that any of these three could be the traitor. However, she had no time to investigate thoroughly who was the most suspicious due to the busy preparations for Lord Jie Luo’s resurrection.

Catherine, however, smiled broadly, still looking like the naive big sister, but in Catherine’s eyes, including Asina, everyone needed to be watched. These four women all wanted to kill her most important master, something Catherine would never allow.

Each person was a master of disguise, creating an oddly harmonious atmosphere in the entire boudoir.

"Can you now tell me what exactly is going on with Karsas?" Silf asked again after a brief exchange of pleasantries.

Asina replied, "How much do you know?"

"I only know that Karsas attacked the Holy Knight due to the invasion of Dark Power and summoned an Evil God, causing severe damage to the Imperial Palace," Silf paused before saying.

"The first half is right, but the second half is wrong. It was the Prince who summoned the Evil God, not Karsas. I suspect it was Wozworth spreading rumors to reduce the blame and damage to the Abshen Family’s reputation during this disaster," Asina nodded slightly, speaking in a calm tone.

That calm demeanor irritated Silf somewhat.

Despite her gentle appearance and serene name, Silf had a very explosive temperament, comparable to Catherine’s.

Knowing that Karsas was about to be executed, Rose Vesper, Asina, and even Catherine could still remain so calm and indifferent, which immediately ignited a fire in Silf’s chest.

Her delicate finger snapped loudly on the armrest, and she even stood up, "Why are you all so indifferent? Karsas is about to be executed, and you have no reactions? Does our many years of friendship not merit your concern for Karsas?"

Due to Silf’s explosive temper, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly tensed up.

Asina’s eyes grew colder as she squinted at Silf, wondering whether Karsas wanted to kill Qin Chu or the residual soul of Jie Luo within Qin Chu.

So agitated was Silf, her relationship with Karsas had always been good—could she also be one of the participants?

Meanwhile, Aili was quietly grooming her nails with a sharp blade, a smile playing on her lips as she watched the scene before her.

Asina’s cold gaze made Silf even more irritable—the beautiful elf was about to burst...

Just then, Catherine suddenly stood up, extending her hands slightly downward to indicate that Silf should sit down:

"Alright, you two stop arguing. Silf, calm down for a moment."

"And Asina, don’t be so confrontational; you know well that Silf and Karsas are like siblings."

Asina withdrew her gaze. Was Catherine reminding her? There was no need; she knew that Silf was a major suspect.

This was Rose Vesper’s boudoir, and she should have been the one to take control of the situation.

But at this moment, Catherine was clearly the big sister to everyone:

"I know, because of the recent events, Benson’s dead, Karsas is about to be executed, everyone’s feeling terrible, and I’m greatly saddened."

"But there is one thing I want you all to understand," Catherine persuasively continued.

"That is, we are all close sisters."

"We shouldn’t let some issues destroy the bond between us!"

"Understand that our ultimate goal is to resurrect Brother Jie Luo..."
