Chapter 1220: Chapter 416: The Summit Gives Rise to Hypocritical Supporters, Dusk Witnesses Devout Believers_4

Sukra was filled with regret, impulsively giving in, only to realize afterward that she did not really understand this man.

Some people outwardly worship the Goddess of Death but are actually quite wild outside, visiting various Goddesses’ abodes on a whim.

Sukra was struck with a terrifying thought: with the Goddess of Death in slumber and the Nature Goddess in her zenith, Wayne, as a Knight to both Goddesses, might have turned away from Death because he disdains it, favoring Nature instead.

"Sukra, you seem to be pondering some very impolite matters!"

Wayne looked grave, gazing at the grey hair before him, he spoke emphatically, "The pinnacle spawns hypocrisy, the twilight bears witness to the devout followers; I have devoted my faith to Death. Even if she has fallen asleep, even if she’s lost her Divine Nation, she remains my sole belief."

"What about the other Divine Artifacts, why did you not reject them?" Sukra said disheartenedly.

"I practice my skills outside so that I may better serve the Goddess when I return; I am quite aggrieved too," Wayne responded, equally morose.

"But..."

But this situation is so embarrassing, they ask, and you just give it to them? What about the Knight’s spirit?

Sukra was at a loss for words, the image of the flawless Wayne shattered, something she could not easily accept.

"What’s done is done, talking more is pointless. If anything, you are largely to blame," Wayne sighed.

"Huh?"

"If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have died once, wouldn’t have been reborn anew, wouldn’t have become the desired prize of the Goddesses, and I wouldn’t have had to act against my conscience over and over to keep my secret as the Death Knight..."

Wayne expressed his bitterness, "At this point, more words are futile, after all, it was an unintentional mistake on your part."

Sukra sensed that something was amiss, but couldn’t articulate it, she replied dryly, "This, this shouldn’t be my fault, your resurrection is supposed to be the work of the Goddess."

Right, blame it on the Goddess, and if I encounter Death in the future, I’ll snitch.

Wayne’s eyes lit up: "Exactly, it’s the Goddess’s plan. She must be playing a big game, turning me into such an outstanding individual, and successfully infiltrating the inner circles of several faiths—she must be plotting something."

With that, he shared an epiphany, extolling the Goddess’s wisdom and invincibility in battle, her unexpected strikes from behind...

In short, his becoming a thrall to six surnames was all a scheme of the Goddess of Death.

"Since the Goddess had her plans all along, this game is in the bag. There’s no need for wild thoughts, just trust in our faith to win," Wayne patted Sukra’s shoulder, implying, ’I’ve worked hard to deceive you, I hope you’re grateful.’

Sukra was still confused, finding it unbelievable that five Gods would choose him, she contended, "This is a lot of work, can you handle it? Do they truly trust you, or are they feigning understanding, already aware of the Goddess’s scheme?"

"They really do trust me," Wayne assured.

Wayne looked around to confirm no one was listening, then whispered in Sukra’s ear, "This is all secret; nobody knows but you. I’m telling you the greatest secret, especially about my identity as the Death Knight, please don’t tell anyone."

"Mhm."

"I am very certain that these deities trust me, not to hide from you, they’ve not only granted me Divine Artifacts but also issued a Divine Decree for the Holy Maidens to seduce me."

"..."

Sukra was speechless at this absurd development, wondering if Wayne was serious.

Forgive her, the Holy Maiden, but she could swear on her chest that there are no such Goddesses in the world.

"It’s true, the Holy Maidens of the Sun and Moonlight are currently trying to seduce me. Darkness and Nature have also been at it for quite some time..."

Wayne lowered his voice, glancing at Hexuno: "That bespectacled secretary by my side is a Nun from the Heavenly Father’s Court, sent on a mission; she’s coveting my body."

"Ah, this..."

Seeing Wayne speak as if it were true, Sukra was momentarily uncertain, planning to witness it for herself.

"I’m not lying to you, you’ll see it with your own eyes. They’ll be upset if I resist their seduction!"

"Uh, they haven’t succeeded, have they?"

"..."

I’ve only succeeded with two so far, one is the Dark Saintess, and the other is the Archangel.

"Wayne, say something!" Sukra was anxious.

"Shame on me, I was young and naive back then, a brash young lad, and before I knew it, I was taken advantage of." Wayne hung his head in deep regret, wishing he had resisted a bit longer and held out.

"Both of them succeeded?"

Sukra’s face turned pale with worry, fearing that the Knight couldn’t withstand the pillow talk, seduced away by the flirtatious Holy Maidens.

No way!

Wayne still has a mission to save the Divine Nation; he can’t fall at this hurdle!

"Who do you think you’re looking down on, I have integrity, okay!"

"They didn’t succeed?"

Sukra was overjoyed, she just knew, Wayne was still devout.

"Uh, one of them did succeed, the one with glasses, she was dangerously seductive..."

Wayne’s eyes flickered as he earnestly confessed, "After that, I reflected deeply and decided to turn over a new leaf and be a better man; I never let anyone else have their way."

Sukra: "..."

To speak frankly, integrity has already been lost.

Seeing Sukra silent, Wayne widened his eyes; yes, he made a mistake, but he had already forgiven himself and hoped that Sukra would learn to let go of reality and not mind these details.

After all, the Goddess has her plans; if one does not infiltrate the enemy Holy Maidens, how can they penetrate the enemy’s Divine Nation?

Sukra covered her face with her hand: "Wayne, it’s not too late to let go now, flirting with these Holy Maidens is playing with fire, you’re not their match, chances are you’ll get burnt."

Isn’t it burning with lust?

Idioms aren’t used like this!

"Why let go, just because she has impure motives and approaches me with bad intentions?"

Seeing Sukra’s look of contempt, Wayne worried that his character was collapsing, he cleared his throat gently with a fist: "They can have impure intentions, I can’t, what’s the difference between that and a scumbag who turns his back after pulling up his pants? Put yourself in my shoes, if I slept with you and then joined the followers of the Holy Light, and when we met again we were enemies, not only would I beat you, but I would also use insulting words to address you, how would you feel?"

"Uh, I think this hypothetical doesn’t hold up."

"Just say whether you’d be angry or not!"

"..."

She would be pretty furious; such a scumbag deserves to be torn to pieces.

"So you see, my conscience dictates that I repeat the mistake; if I’ve slept with someone, I definitely won’t just pull up my pants and leave."

Wayne framed his lascivious body as one of righteous generosity, then pivoted: "I didn’t quite understand before, but now I faintly feel that this is the Goddess’s scheme, those gods are vying for me, and if I sleep with all the Holy Maidens, I will gain their trust and successfully infiltrate the opposition as an undercover operative."

Just don’t get so into your undercover work that you can’t get back out!

Sukra wore a dark expression, she also had a guess, vaguely feeling that those gods used Holy Maidens to subvert Wayne.

Sacrifice just one Holy Maiden to kidnap the descendant of the Death Knight; it’s a significant bargain, no loss at all.

If this assumption holds, Wayne is indeed very important, and the gods might fear he can save Hades, hence they send Holy Maidens to tempt him into corruption.

"Ssss—"

Sukra felt the weight of her burden heavier than ever; might there be a possibility that the Goddess had calculated everything precisely, and in entrusting her to transfer Divine Power to Wayne, there was also a hidden task?
