Chapter 96: Chapter 77: Qin Chu Cannot Manipulate Catherine (200 recommendations for a 4000-word update)_2

Although she understood Catherine’s reaction, Rose Vesper felt she must warn Catherine once more — she couldn’t let this woman actually kill Qin Chu.

After all, as long as Qin Chu became deeply enamored with and even fell in love with Catherine’s body, future actions would become especially easy. Most importantly, Catherine would have ample reason to stay closest to Qin Chu, becoming the Hero Team’s most deadly spy planted by his side...

"Sister Catherine, I know you’ve sacrificed a lot, letting Qin Chu over you, it must feel awful, doesn’t it..."

Not at all, it’s rather comfortable...

Catherine murmured in her heart.

Rose Vesper, unaware of Catherine’s thoughts, continued, "But, no matter what, please continue to endure. After all, this relates to our plan to resurrect Lord Jie Luo. If you lash out now, our plan will fail, and Lord Jie Luo won’t be resurrected. You wouldn’t want Lord Jie Luo to die completely, would you?"

"Just remember, all your sacrifices are for Lord Jie Luo."

Rose Vesper used her guidance once more.

She believed that as long as she mentioned Lord Jie Luo’s name, telling Catherine that her body being used by Qin Chu was all for the resurrection of Lord Jie Luo, she could certainly make Catherine obey.

After all, Rose Vesper knew very well how deeply Catherine loved Lord Jie Luo.

Catherine scratched her hair, feeling somewhat irritated inside. Lord Jie Luo, Lord Jie Luo, Lord Jie Luo... whether this jerk is dead or alive, what does it have to do with me? I don’t care if he’s dead.

Besides, what’s there to endure?

She preferred her master to dote on her even more. The depth of Catherine’s love for Lord Jie Luo once equaled, and now her love for Qin Chu deepened; no, it was several times greater now.

Too bad, although her master also loved her, he seemed to favor Angelica a bit more. It was confirmed then. Angelica was her biggest competitor.

She had to find a way to steal her master’s heart from Angelica.

Of course, it would be healthy competition; she wouldn’t go slashing Angelica with a knife. After all, her master cared deeply for that woman. If Angelica died, her master would also be heartbroken.

Yes, that settles it!

Catherine nodded her head, firming up her course of action.

Seeing Catherine nod made Rose Vesper slightly relieved; the guidance had taken effect. It seemed her words had gotten through. This was a good sign; Catherine was likely reflecting on her mistakes internally right now.

Rose Vesper patted her slightly smaller chest than Catherine’s, exhaling a breath, and said somewhat fearfully, "Sister Catherine, you attacking me right from the start really scared me. I thought Qin Chu had manipulated your mind..."

Rose Vesper felt ashamed of this thought, wondering which of her nerves had twitched to believe that Qin Chu could manipulate Catherine.

After all, Catherine’s will was so strong, and she loved Lord Jie Luo deeply. Such a person couldn’t be easily manipulated, and most importantly, Qin Chu didn’t possess Spirit Magic that could manipulate others.

Despite other things similar to Spirit Magic, such as "City Beauty Love," even if Qin Chu had gotten hold of several bottles of it, he wouldn’t have had enough time to use them on Catherine. Even if Catherine had used all of it, and it had taken effect, she would have only fallen madly in love with herself, not Qin Chu.

After all, Rose Vesper was the creator of "City Beauty Love."

So, even stepping back hundreds, thousands, ten thousands of steps, Qin Chu had no ability to manipulate Catherine. Her worries were entirely unnecessary.

With this in mind, Rose Vesper calmed down. She settled her emotions and looked solemnly at Catherine as she spoke, "Sister Catherine, there’s been trouble..."

"Benson was attacked."

Catherine was taken aback. Benson was attacked? What has that got to do with me?

Though they were members of the same Hero Team, she didn’t have a good relationship with Benson. Wouldn’t it be even better if Benson were dead?

After all, besides herself, all members of the Hero Team wanted to assassinate Qin Chu.

However, Catherine remembered Qin Chu’s instructions and did not speak of this. Instead, she frowned deeply, "Who did this?"

"It must be Luo Meng, the seventh son of the Eternal Monarch Nag. Even if we travel non-stop, it would take at least two days to travel from the Imperial City to the location of the attack. We must leave immediately to rescue him." There was no lack of worry in Rose Vesper’s voice.

She did not doubt Benson’s strength; although his offensive power might be insufficient, his defensive power and ability to recover were extraordinarily strong. Benson could sustain an extremely long battle.

But the opponent was, after all, Luo Meng, and he brought a large number of followers. Whether Benson could hold out for three days was still a question. If Benson died, it would be a severe blow to the Hero Team and their plans.

"Tomorrow, Rose Vesper might come to see you, and you will leave the Imperial City. When that happens, make sure to take me with you."

Catherine recalled Qin Chu’s instructions... had he known this would happen all along?

Ah, truly deserving of the man she deeply loved; he was incredibly impressive.

Although she was not entirely clear why her lover wanted to go personally, she would faithfully execute Qin Chu’s orders.

"No problem, but first, I need to change my clothes," Catherine said.

This was a very reasonable request. Although Rose Vesper was anxious to get moving immediately, Catherine’s current appearance was indeed not suitable for going out.

After a tense wait, Catherine finally came downstairs, now clad in a fiery red battle armor, her long hair tied into a single ponytail gently swaying behind her. This was how Qin Chu liked her hair.

"Let’s depart," Rose Vesper said quickly.

Rose Vesper rushed forward, attempting to grab Catherine’s hand, but Catherine subtly shrugged her off.

"I know you’re anxious!"

"I’m also worried about Benson, but before we depart, there’s one more thing we need to do," Catherine said solemnly.

Rose Vesper was slightly irritated, "What is it?"

"Take Qin Chu with us," Catherine said quietly.

Not expecting this, Rose Vesper was momentarily stunned and then shockingly alarmed, her face turning pale, "Ca... Catherine, why bring Qin Chu? What are you planning to do?"

"You’re not planning to take Qin Chu outside the city and... kill him, are you?"

Rose Vesper truly believed Catherine intended to take Qin Chu out of the city and dispose of him in an isolated place. After all, this sister was so furious that she even mistook herself for Qin Chu and attacked directly.

If it weren’t for her not-too-shabby strength, she might have died just now.

But she couldn’t allow that to happen. It wasn’t because she was worried about Qin Chu, but because Qin Chu couldn’t die yet; his death now would lead to the complete collapse of their plans.

"Catherine, I know you hate Qin Chu, but please endure it, and don’t think of killing him before time..." Rose Vesper chose her words carefully, explaining, "Not until all the demons are eliminated, and all fragments of Lord Jie Luo’s soul are found... we can’t lay hands on Qin Chu yet..."

"Don’t worry. I assure you, your ordeal won’t last much longer."

"Lord Ronald has already begun searching for Jie Luo’s Soul Fragments... he already has some leads..."

The First Generation Brave’s Soul Fragments? This news should interest Qin Chu quite a bit.

Catherine’s expression suddenly brightened, "Where?"
