Chapter 244: Chapter 158: Who is the Real Spy? (1)

Sisters?

When Catherine mentioned sisters, Asina couldn’t help but want to laugh.

Out of the five of them, only she and Catherine could be considered sisters, right?

Apart from the two of them, the other three were all suspect, and Asina wouldn’t trust anyone else before the mole was clearly identified.

She believed Catherine felt the same way.

It seemed that because of Jie Luo’s affair, even the normally carefree Catherine had become more mature.

Silf seemed to realize her reaction was too strong and took a deep breath before sitting down again, "Sorry, I may have gotten a bit too excited."

Catherine smiled gently, "It’s okay, it’s normal, especially considering the many ordeals our Hero Team has faced recently."

Ten members, united around Lord Jie Luo.

Life used to be so pleasant, so happy, but now one is dead, and another is about to be executed.

At this moment, everyone must be feeling terrible.

"What exactly happened, did Karsas really kill that many Holy Knights?" Silf asked, unable to hold back.

"It’s true, Karsas was just too..." Rose Vesper struggled to find the words and couldn’t call Karsas stupid in front of Silf.

"The demon Seventh Prince, Romon, after killing Benson, left the symbols of the Earth Mother Goddess Sect and the Holy Court on Benson’s corpse. Karsas thought the Holy Court and Earth Mother Goddess Sect were behind it and went straight to the Holy Knight Order’s camp to behead those knights as a sacrifice to Benson."

Silf’s emerald green eyes widened in exasperation; she knew Karsas wasn’t very smart, but she didn’t expect him to be this foolish.

Anyone could see that there was a problem here.

"And to make things worse, the Hero saw this whole scene..." Rose Vesper went on about the past, emphasizing that it was because of her request to Qin Chu that he agreed to conceal it, taking credit for the accomplishment.

"Regrettably, Karsas only cleaned up the heads, not the campsite. You know, Karsas’s Strength is very unique, and the remaining traces of his Strength were enough to make the Church suspect him. And he didn’t dispose of those heads but stuffed them all in a storage ring. Right in the Holy Court’s Holy Hall, Augustus released all the heads."

Silf felt helpless, as the evidence was undeniable, no one could overturn Karsas’s sentence now.

"Even so, there was no need to go straight to an extreme punishment, right? It was ’only’ three thousand two hundred Holy Knights; combined, they haven’t slain as many demons as Karsas has by himself..."

In Silf’s heart, the lives of three thousand two hundred Holy Knights were far less important than the life of the person she valued.

"Didn’t you try to find a way to save Karsas?"

"How could we not?" Rose Vesper sighed with some frustration, "Otherwise, why would I, the Holy Daughter of the Holy Court, be confined to my room, not allowed to go anywhere?"

"But this matter is not as simple as you think. The incident has spread, and if no punishment is given to Karsas, what do you think the soldiers on the front lines will think?"

"To avoid mutiny, Wozworth, Augustus, Saint Monica, and Zimmerman all simultaneously decided to execute Karsas."

Silf’s frustration flared up again, "Then we have to find a way to save him..."

"It’s useless. Apart from prison break, no overt action will work, especially now that the Prince caused significant damage to the Imperial City by summoning the Evil God’s power. All factions are more wary of dark, sinister forces, and it’s impossible to give Karsas another chance. In fact, we don’t even have the opportunity to plead with Augustus and the others."

Asina added, "Sorry, Silf, you may be angry when I say this, but I actually don’t want to save Karsas..."

"Because of Karsas’s actions, many have lost trust in the Hero Team, including the Second Generation Brave Warrior, and this has created a serious obstacle for our plans to resurrect Jie Luo."

"If we take the risk to save Karsas, it will make our future actions even more difficult. We might even be stripped of our Hero Team membership. Do you understand these consequences?"

"Karsas’s temper is just too impulsive. He has directly attacked the Second Generation Brave Warrior twice, and that could cause our entire plan to fail, once right in front of Augustus and the others..."

As expected, Silf’s anger reignited at Asina’s words; she glared at Asina with her verdant eyes, furious.

But this time, Asina stood her ground, unyielding, staring right back, "Don’t look at me with that kind of eyes. To resurrect Jie Luo, Catherine and I have already made great sacrifices. You’ve just arrived here and done nothing. What right do you have to criticize us?"

"To counteract the very negative impression Karsas has made on the Second Generation Brave Warrior, and to ensure we have the chance to collect Jie Luo’s Soul Fragments and assassinate the now-grown Hero, Catherine is now openly the lover of the Second Generation Brave Warrior. You know what that entails, right?"
