Chapter 252: Chapter 161 I’m Really Not Cao Zei (Seeking Recommendation Votes and Monthly Votes)_3

Upon seeing Qin Chu, a glint flickered briefly through his murky eyes, followed by a kindly smile spreading across his wrinkled face as he walked toward Qin Chu.

Qin Chu gestured for Norma to wait here while he went to meet him alone.

"Your Majesty Augustus, it’s a beautifully moonlit day today. Are you heading out?" Qin Chu removed his hat and smiled.

"I have some matters to attend to. Mr. Brave, coming to the Holy Court, you’re not here looking for me, are you? Could it be that you’ve taken a fancy to one of the nuns of the Holy Court?" Augustus joked with a chuckle, "I think no woman would reject Mr. Brave, your strength and talent have already conquered many..."

This didn’t seem like something the Pope should be saying.

However, the world was quite liberal, even a Pope wouldn’t be so stiff.

Qin Chu chuckled, "Your Holiness, you know that’s not who I am."

"I just wanted to inquire about Karsas’s situation."

"Karsas? Right now, he’s in the dungeon. You know, it’s a bit stifling in the dungeon, so we added some water to cool it down for him, even allowing him to have a bath."

"Moreover, the dungeon environment is a bit too dark, so we have twelve priests around him, taking turns to provide the warmth of Holy Light."

"Since it’s so boring in there, we’ve also arranged for him to have some little friends like rats, cockroaches, and maggots."

"We’ve even arranged for six Sin Execution Officers to chat with him twenty-four hours a day; he’s really having a joyful time now."

Augustus rambled on, and Qin Chu imagined such an environment; indeed, Karsas must be enjoying himself tremendously.

It was just like the Holy Court, so benevolent towards criminals.

Suddenly, Augustus thought of something, "You’re not here to save Karsas, are you?"

"Mr. Brave, it was your preaching that initially confirmed our decision for Karsas’s public execution."

"Besides, it was thanks to the information you gave me last time that I came to know..."

"Shh, Your Holiness, let’s not speak carelessly. The matter about Karsas being the real culprit in the massacre of the Holy Knights was a result of your wise and insightful independent investigation, I could never take credit for your achievements," Qin Chu interrupted Augustus with a smile.

"Moreover, although I am broad-minded and bear no grudges, I am no Holy Mother. Why would I want to save someone who has tried to kill me twice?"

After a pause, Qin Chu added, "However, as you can see, Karsas’s fiancée came to find me, and I really had no choice..."

Augustus’s expression turned somewhat strange. He seemed to speak reflexively, "Mr. Brave, why do you always seem to go after someone else’s fiancée?"

"Let me advise you, that is not a good habit."

"No matter how beautiful someone else’s fiancée might be, she belongs to someone else. Going after someone else’s fiancée is truly immoral; continuing this way, you’ll end up in Hell."

This made it sound like I was some kind of villain...

Am I that kind of person?

Qin Chu spread his hands, "I can’t help it, who makes me not have one."

"But, respected Your Holiness, could you take me to see Karsas? Don’t get me wrong, I’m not planning to rescue him."

"You know, Karsas deeply loves his fiancée. Being in the dungeon, he might worry a lot about her situation, so I plan to go in and reassure him!"

"Tell him, ’Your wife is in my hands, so you don’t have to worry’?"
