Chapter 1003: Chapter 362: Pertinent, Objective, and to the Point_2

————

The camera angle shifted, and most of William’s frustration dissipated as he pushed the door open, feeling refreshed.

The background featured a tender, collapsed cream puff.

There wasn’t much to say about the process, first he seized the two leading troublemakers, gave them a verbal warning, and then continued to trace down the line, soon the truth came to light, clear as day.

Those who understood knew, and those who didn’t pretended to be foolish—there’s no need to elaborate.

After executing the prime suspect, William drove straight to the Moonlight Church High Priest’s house.

There was no one at home, so he headed to the Moonlight Church Lundan District headquarters and settled the matter in the office.

He couldn’t wait to get home; the High Priest’s office desk was quite large.

Women are known for their meticulous thoughts, and Philomena, like Viley, also felt that today’s Wayne was different. Although he often got up and stormed off, this time...

He suddenly seemed much more mature, shameless than before.

"I remember now, it’s General Yuwen’s line!"

Holding his belt, Wayne stepped out of the office door and saw the twin gatekeepers; that’s when he realized.

Really, he was a villain.

Vernar and Deit looked at Wayne with disdain. In broad daylight, you have no shame; the High Priest still has some, how can you command respect after such rumors spread?

Wayne felt no disgrace, having lost before he appreciated what it meant to cherish. People from the Outer World take things too for granted, unlike those from the Inverted World like Austin, who, given a chance of reunion, would stake not just their faces and dignity but their lives as well.

Speaking of Austin, Wayne felt a tinge of unresolved feelings.

As it neared the end of working hours, he picked up the drowsy High Priest and took him home, spoke some soothing sweet words, and then drove toward Lando Manor.

During the family dinner, Wayne looked joyously at everyone, his intense gaze was too much even for Veronica and Slyphy, and Megan also found it somewhat eerie.

Austin frowned slightly; others might not understand, but he knew Wayne had been to the Inverted World. Such a complicated gaze likely meant the Lando Family there had met a tragic fate.

He didn’t say much but gave Wayne a look, suggesting they should go to the study after dinner.

...

The camera shifted to the study.

Megan stood at the door and set a Soundproof Barrier. Not only did Wayne come by himself, he also brought Slyphy and Veronica, which puzzled Austin; if it was a tragedy, it shouldn’t be shared with everyone.

Vaguely, Austin felt he was about to soar tonight.

Soar to the skies!

"A few days ago, while I was clearing up some devils, I unfortunately fell into the Inverted World... No worries, I’m back now, right?"

"The Inverted World is a doomsday world filled with negative information, wars of The Church, state wars, people killing one another, all of these have destroyed that world, even as a bystander I could feel intense despair..."

"The Lando Family there is not doing well."

"The last restart of the Inverted World was about two years ago, starting from Veronica’s graduation ceremony, I was cursed while eradicating a Death Church outpost. Due to the influence of negative information, they kicked out William, who had been transformed by Viley, from the squad. Without him to guide, I would have never met you."

"Hold on, what do you mean by without Viley guiding, I would have never met you?"

Veronica, discontent, found a flaw in the logic, assuming that Viley came first and competed for the same boyfriend.

"It turns out, indeed, she did come first!"

Wayne insisted firmly, clearing Viley’s good name.

Viley was consistent inside out, love at first sight regardless of which world, resolutely a loss—this round, Wayne supported her.

Veronica was even less pleased, recalling a passage from her diary, she crossed her arms and turned her head away.

Diary: When a man and a woman are late for a date, there are only two possibilities, either they overslept or they’ve slept together.

Clearly, Wayne had slept over.

Bah, scumbag!

Veronica was unhappy and needed coaxing. Wayne chuckled, took her hand into his, and said, "You and Chris went alone to Caforno Town and then no news from you, I assume you fell there."

Wayne turned to Slyphy, "Teacher, in the Inverted World I was a Death Knight, influenced by negative information, I single-handedly stormed into the Naturalism Church Lundan District headquarters, and killed everyone, including you."

Slyphy nodded, unsurprised, as the Diviner had mentioned this part when divining in Icebound Continent.
