Chapter 823: Chapter 316: Just Spoil Him_2

"How could that be possible, I just left Mula and Leo to look after things. How can the matter of a God-chosen Knight be considered a loss? I’m back now, aren’t I?"

"You must have flipped the table, just like you did just now."

"Just now?"

Dreyne chuckled coldly and shamelessly said, "Who knows, who saw it? What are you talking about, are you dreaming? Do you have any witnesses?"

Wayne really had no witnesses. This place was the regional headquarters of the Moonlight Church, and for the honor of the God-chosen Knight, both Philomena and Chris had to speak against their conscience.

A knight may forgo honor, but not the believers, whether it’s debating theology or whitewashing, Moonlight Knight Dreyne must be seen as an ice-maiden beauty.

Philomena, with a headache, rubbed her temples, suspecting that she had been deceived. The high-ranking officials of the Church headquarters knew the true face of the Moonlight Knight and had concocted lies just for the sake of appearance.

Especially that saying, "admire from afar, but come no closer, for those who do will freeze to death," was most likely fabricated to fool such a naive young lady like herself.

Not wanting to die, keep away from the God-chosen Knight (✗)

Getting too close to the knight exposes everything (✚)

Philomena cursed herself for being too young and believing the nonsense of those higher-ups. Reality was right in front of her eyes, Wayne was right, the Moonlight Knight was addicted to cards, hated to lose, would flip tables, and even bet Divine Artifacts.

Could there be anything more absurd than having three such God-chosen Knights in the world?

Actually, yes.

All three God-chosen Knights belong to the Life Alliance.

Philomena patted her chest, unable to comprehend how her sure-win bet had failed miserably. Was it, as Wayne said, that even the Goddesses are card sharks, and playing cards was a hobby that catered to their faith?

ε=(′д`*)))x2

Life is hard, sighed the High Priest.

There were two sighs, she looked puzzledly at Chris, not understanding what her student was sighing about, and then realized it must be out of frustration for her own knight.

Teacher, you’re really too naive!

Chris saw right through Philomena’s thoughts, secretly calling her naive. In this materialistic society, such innocent old women like Philomena were rare, she hoped it would continue.

Chris, having experienced all sorts of douchebag tactics and the drama of the trio’s united front to oppose Saina, was no longer that naive senior. She guessed that Wayne and Philomena were having an affair, and Philomena was kept in the dark, truly believing in wholehearted love.

Laughable, as if it’s that simple, Wayne’s love entails not only wholeheartedness but also monogamy, a lifetime commitment.

Seen the Moonlight Knight, right? He’s a carbon copy!

Thinking this, Chris couldn’t help rolling her eyes.

Philomena was all at sea, not understanding why her student would roll her eyes at her, and from a seemingly higher stance coupled with a bit of smugness.

What’s there to be smug about?

Dreyne observed the change in their expressions and secretly thought it amusing. She folded her hands together on the desk, and slowly said, "Wayne, what have you been up to all this time instead of training?"

"Revolution."

"???"

This answer was unexpected; Dreyne thought Wayne would mention being busy with trivial things, then she would have a chance to steer the topic towards chasing girls.

What does revolution mean, literally?

"A while ago, Windsor declared war on Prussia, the Royal Family took measures to centralize power against the Tulip Family, who have always been the protectors of the Royal Family..."

"Blah blah blah, wibbly wobbly..."

"Now my father is working in Buckingham Palace, waiting for him to complete the centralization of power in his lifetime, completely cutting out the Royal Family, then I, as the head of the family, will be able to transfer the property deeds of Buckingham Palace, becoming the new King of Windsor."

"..."x2

Chris was horrified. Such a big event, and Wayne hadn’t told her, was it a surprise or was there another person in mind?

Dreyne was dumbstruck, a rich young noble who’d already been a Prince and now a King. Aren’t you reaching for the heavens, young man? Can your body even take it, don’t end up unable to even draw a bow.

Philomena suddenly realized why there had been no noise that night, it was this arrangement. Who exactly is the Queen? Wayne’s sister from the Lando Family?

"So you were busy with a revolution; that does indeed sound very busy..."

Dreyne didn’t know much about revolutions, being ignorant in this area, she promptly changed the topic to her familiar field, intending to reclaim her loss from the card game.

"Wayne, I remember you once said that the Mage who initially led you on the path of magic, came from our Moonlight Church, but later was poached by the Naturalism Church."

"..."

Wayne stayed silent, seeing the setup with Philomena and Chris as soon as he entered, he knew Dreyne was up to no good.

Embarrassingly, due to his douchebaggery, he wasn’t panicking at all.

Dreyne, don’t be smug just yet, today you’re doomed to be busy for nothing, you won’t get the entertainment you wanted.

Seeing Wayne feign composure, Dreyne sneered repeatedly, "Wayne, as the heir to the Moonlight Knight, I must remind you to be mindful of your personal life, you represent not only yourself but also the Church and the Goddess, every word and action of yours is being watched by countless eyes, understand?"

"I get the reasoning, but is it appropriate for you to say these things?" Wayne retorted.

"No talking back! No arguing!"

Dreyne glanced at Philomena and Chris, "You also said that to snatch you from the Naturalism Church, two female Mages of the Moonlight Church didn’t hesitate to compromise their purity to tie you down, right?"

"Two?"x2

Chris tilted her head slightly; two were too few, she could wake up from her dreams laughing.

Philomena looked up in surprise, subconsciously looking at Chris who had been summoned by Dreyne, about to ask something when she noticed Chris’s calm demeanor, showing no signs of panic at all.
