Hero? Are You Worthy?

Chapter 292: Chapter 182 Silf Decides to Undergo Treatment (4)

He had originally only wanted to assign Candice a task, but suddenly, a spark of inspiration led to even more doubts.

The mysterious person who gave Rose Vesper the Resurrection Technique scroll.

The mysterious person who informed Rose Vesper of the location of the Soul Fragments...

This person was so mysterious, almost weird, that even Rose Vesper couldn’t see through him, and he was probably stronger than the Holy Daughter.

But why hadn’t he gone to find those Soul Fragments himself? Could it be that there was something wrong with the Soul Fragments, or some sort of fearful power that made him dare not touch them or even get close to them?

Yet those Soul Fragments were clearly empty, merely a beautiful stone in the eyes of ordinary people.

Apart from using it once to deceive Asina, it held no particular significance when kept on his person.

Qin Chu spread his thoughts as wide as possible, and then thought about how among Jie Luo’s selected team members, three out of ten were corrupted, and the rest, besides Benson who was killed, were also potential backups for corruption.

Then... could the First Generation Brave Hero Jie Luo also have been corrupted by the Evil God?

This thought startled Qin Chu himself.

It couldn’t be, Jie Luo was a Hero after all.

Candice was also surprised by Qin Chu’s words, "You are going to meet Luo Meng?"

"That’s too dangerous!"

"That place is demon territory. You are a Hero, if they let..."

Qin Chu withdrew his wandering thoughts, barely smiled, "Who knows I am a Hero?"

Candice was taken aback.

Suddenly she remembered, the first time she met Qin Chu, he had disguised himself as Lord Horus.

With such an ability, it is indeed difficult for demons to discern Qin Chu’s true identity.

"Don’t worry, I won’t do anything too dangerous. Even if those demons really want to attack me, I am confident that I can escape," Qin Chu assured confidently.

"But will the Church Court and the Empire let you leave?"

"Of course not," Qin Chu shook his head. "However, as a Hero, I have already shown some strength, and since the frontline keeps losing ground due to Luo Meng’s arrangement for a large number of demons to attack, the human side needs a victory to boost morale and regain the situation."

"Now is the most appropriate time for a Hero to step in."

"Now that the Hero Team has lost two members in a row, Benson and Karsas, I estimate that Wozworth, Augustus, and the people from Saint Monica are already discussing replenishing members of the Hero Team, and then using the opportunity to insert their own people."

"When the Hero Team is complete again, they will likely arrange for me to go to the frontline to fight the demons. By then, I’ll have plenty of chances to slip away."

Previously, having Candice inform Luo Meng about some weak spots in the human defensive line had indeed started to take effect.

"Here, take this," Qin Chu said as he took something from his Space Ring and handed it to Candice.

It was a Magic Scroll.

Of course, it was not something that would establish contact with the Void Evil God; it was a scroll imprinted with a Space Transmission Magic Array, difficult to manufacture, and Qin Chu didn’t have many.

"Set the coordinates in advance. Although I don’t think Luo Meng will hurt you at this time since you are very useful to Luo Meng, it’s always safer to have this by your side. If Luo Meng truly wants to harm you, just open the scroll, and you’ll be able to escape to the place you’ve set earlier," Qin Chu explained.

Candice felt a warm sensation inside her and cheerfully accepted the scroll.

She planted a soft kiss on him.

This Enchanting Demon, every move was enticing Qin Chu’s passion, making him feel an inexplicable urge just by smelling the scent on Candice.

Holding her soft body felt very comfortable.

It even made Qin Chu feel that if he could keep holding and kissing her like this for life, it would be the greatest happiness.

Unfortunately, this tenderness did not last long as, when Qin Chu was about to lose control, Candice, her cheeks flushed, straightened up and stepped away from his embrace.

Her eyes still brimming with a silken allure.

"Then, my most beloved Lord Horus, I wish you all the best."

This fairy!

Qin Chu shook his head somewhat helplessly.

When he got back home, Angelica had already prepared a sophisticated breakfast.

Aili came down to eat. Qin Chu glanced at her, noticing no X-shaped mark on her body.

It was unclear whether it was because she was not observed by the Evil God, or because the corruption was too slight to show yet.

Silf was still in her room and hadn’t appeared. Qin Chu didn’t care much; he knew Silf was busy digesting what he had previously told her.

After breakfast, Antasia and Angelica continued to train with Antia and Violet.

Qin Chu was getting more and more powerful girls by his side. Even the always very confident Antasia felt threatened. They had to increase their strength as quickly as possible, so they wouldn’t fall behind the other girls.

After the meal, Aili and Asina both left the house. Based on clues previously provided by Catherine, Asina was probably still researching the soul in the library.

As for Aili, she was just out gathering information about herself.

There were spies everywhere around the palace; he had long become accustomed to it.

After Catherine left with him, only Qin Chu and Noma were left in the hall.

"Norma, I’m sorry," Qin Chu said to Norma.

Norma clearly understood what Qin Chu was apologizing for, and she quickly shook her head, "Mr. Qin, there is no need for you to apologize, it’s not your fault, and perhaps for Karsas, this might be the best outcome."

"If we had let Karsas continue to live, he would have definitely caused countless casualties. Perhaps, as Gaia said, attempting to save Karsas from the beginning was a mistake," Qin Chu conceded.

You brought up Gaia on your own, Norma, how clever of you.

Qin Chu praised her mentally, "It seems that the other you, Miss Gaia, is quite lively."

Norma felt somewhat embarrassed, "Actually, it’s noisy, always chattering in my head, I’m almost annoyed to death by her..."

I am not annoying at all... another voice from within Norma’s mind immediately responded.

This voice was a residual soul residing within Norma, but clearly, Norma did not see it that way; she regarded Gaia’s residual soul as another consciousness of hers.

"So, what does she usually say?"

Norma seemed to find it slightly amusing as a small smile appeared on her face, "She talks a lot... always saying I’m too weak, too useless, saying if it were her, she could have done so much better..."

"She even says I’m really stupid, that I couldn’t learn a Super Order Magic spell, even after half a month..."

Wow, Super Order Magic, and expecting to learn it in just half a month, where did such a genius like you come from?

"She even refuses to acknowledge that she’s another me, giving herself a name like Gaia, fantasizing that she is the Earth Witch..."

"One moment saying she is the Earth Witch, the next, claiming she was the Holy Daughter of the Earth Mother Goddess Church a thousand years ago."

"She also says that the current Earth Mother Goddess Church is just a bunch of filthy traitors."

Norma excitedly shared, something she had never told anyone before; she had thought about telling Karsas, but he had dismissed her, claiming she really had mental issues.

Now with Qin Chu as her listener, Norma was genuinely happy.

Qin Chu’s expression was calm, with a gentle smile, seemingly just a listener.

But inside, a storm was brewing.

Another Holy Daughter from a thousand years ago.

Violet was the Holy Daughter of the Lord of Storm’s Temple.

Gaia was the Holy Daughter of the Earth Mother Goddess Church.

A thousand years ago, when the Gods fell, they chose pure and outstanding girls to inherit their authority... Being the temple’s Holy Daughter, undoubtedly the most outstanding, most pure girls were selected, which was normal of course.

But Gaia said that the current Earth Mother Goddess Church were traitors?

What was that about?

A thousand years ago, the Holy Court’s cavalry flattened the continent, almost every teaching was eradicated under the attacks of the Holy Court, why did only the Earth Mother Goddess Church alone survive?

Perhaps, this label of traitors, was the reason.

"I have heard a bit about the faith war a thousand years ago..." Shaye’s figure slowly appeared, leaning behind Qin Chu, "Apparently, the Earth Mother Goddess Church, being next only to the Holy Court as the second largest church, naturally became the leader and the backbone of other churches resisting the Holy Court."

"Originally evenly matched, but for some reason, the Earth Mother Goddess Church suddenly switched sides and allied with the Holy Court, causing other churches to fall instantly, making the Earth Mother Goddess Church one of the final victors."

"The strangest part was, the Holy Court, which had been clamoring to maintain a sole faith across the continent, also spared the Earth Mother Goddess Church, seemingly truly accepting this ally, even though at the end of the war, the Holy Court could have easily destroyed the Earth Mother Goddess Church as well."

"I certainly don’t think the Holy Court would respect any pact; to them, it’s just a scrap of paper."

This was indeed very strange.

With the fall of the Earth Mother Goddess, Gaia who inherited the Earth Mother Goddess’s authority wanted to continue the resistance, while other significant figures in the Earth Mother Goddess Church deemed it best to ally with the Holy Court!

Since the Earth Mother Goddess had fallen, then the piece of information Angelica brought, that the Earth Mother Goddess Church had received an oracle?

Whose oracle was this?

Interesting.

Norma, unaware of Qin Chu’s thoughts, kept babbling on, and being able to vent the contents of her chest made her very happy.

After a long time, Norma realized she might have taken too much of Qin Chu’s time.

She was a bit embarrassed, "Sorry, Mr. Qin, you must think I’m babbling too much... You’ve been busy all night, you should really rest."

Qin Chu gently shook his head, "No worries, if Miss Norma ever wants to talk again, feel free to come to me."

He stood up, stretching his arms, "Well, Norma, I will go rest for a bit."

Having been busy all night, Qin Chu was indeed a bit tired.

He planned to lie down in bed and sleep well, waiting for either the Holy Court or rather the Empire’s people to wake him up to discuss the matter of boosting the Hero Team’s members.

However, when Qin Chu opened the door of his room, he found someone else was there.

It was Silf.

She had been sitting silently in the chair, and at the sound of the door opening, her body jolted as if electrified.

Then Silf summoned her courage, stood up, and looked at Qin Chu:

"Mr. Brave, I’ve decided to accept your treatment!"

Smart decision!
