Chapter 877: Chapter 329 Upright and Just, Avoiding the Company of Women_4

Indeed!

Wayne slapped his forehead and said without words, "What does that Void Worm mean, what is it waiting for?"

"I’m not sure, there are no reliable speculations yet. It might be because of Ob, who is a Legendary Mage. The Void Worm has become addicted and wants to ambush a few more Legendary Mages."

Borne complained continuously. The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish became. Several churches were guarding the flesh of the Star Beast, not worried about buyers, each starting with a high asking price.

Borne looked eagerly at Wayne, knowing that the prince had improper relations with several churches, having taken many back roads.

Now, it was time for the prince to use his special skills.

Wayne curled his lip, "Go through the normal funding application process, get Austin and the Queen to sign off, wait for the money to come through, and I will personally talk to the Church."

"So, about the funds being applied for... the exact amount?"

"How did you handle it before?"

"Based on the market price, plus an extra thirty percent." Borne smiled like an ignorant old fool.

Insectoids!

A bunch of insectoids!

No wonder the Magic Department was always on fire, and even the Queen occasionally added fuel to the fire. With your greedy feeding, even if the Queen and Princess both sought a livelihood at the Lando Family, they couldn’t fill the gap.

Wayne rolled his eyes and said grumpily, "I’m new here and don’t want to break the rules. Based on the market price plus thirty percent, transfer the money to me, and I’ll go talk."

"Deputy minister, as a national heir, you are still struggling on the front line, trying every means to save money for the country. We subordinates are really incompetent," Borne said expressionlessly.

"Patriotic, as it should be."

Wayne patted his chest. He had opened several channels early for the country; as long as the money was in place, he could immediately get in touch with the flesh of the Star Beast.

Coincidentally, he was going to visit Anastasia’s house tonight to infuse the statue of the Dark Goddess with energy chosen by the Five Gods.

It was a good opportunity to ask Anastasia if the Dark Church had any discounted Star Beast flesh for sale.

If he could earn a seventy percent profit with tears, it would naturally be excellent.

Night, West District.

A manor registered in Wayne’s name, currently the residence of Anastasia.

At first glance, it seemed Wayne was keeping a mistress outside, but that wasn’t the case. As the heir of the Lando Family, he expressed his gratitude for the support from the Dark Church.

The manor was arranged by Philark, who didn’t care whether she was a Holy Maiden or needed to remain pure; he only knew that Wayne rarely gave special attention to female friends, and those he attended to usually ended up as ladies.

So, the manor was extremely luxurious, and those unaware might think Anastasia had become corrupt.

In the glittering living room, Anastasia, dressed in a long black dress, had meticulously made herself up and personally brewed a pot of black tea to entertain Wayne.

A faint fragrance wafted over, tickling Wayne’s nose. Sensing the atmosphere was off, he got down to business, "Her Holiness, does the Dark Church have a collection of Star Beast flesh, and what is the current selling price?"

"I’m not sure, but if Mister Wayne desires, I could represent the Church and gift you a few portions."

Mother of mercy, that would be a thirteen percent profit through tears!

That’s too insectoid!

Wayne shook his head slightly, "Let’s just forget the gift; we’ll go with the market price; whatever it is is fine. You may be the Holy Maiden, but the administrative power of the Dark Church lies with the Pope, don’t owe him any favors."

"The Pope is my father."

"..."

Well, you’re second generation.

Wayne became respectful. They say it’s easy to go from frugality to luxury but hard to return; Anastasia, having never lacked food or clothing since childhood and having achieved fame and success, maintained a Monk-like lifestyle instead of being corrupted by luxury—this showed how noble her character was.

For a moment, Anastasia shone even brighter in Wayne’s eyes.

Wayne compared her to others he knew, who all had minor flaws, but Anastasia was noble and pure, faultless.

If only she were my Holy Maiden!

Wayne suddenly thought, if Anastasia couldn’t go back, it wouldn’t be bad to have her for himself.

Thinking it over, he slightly shook his head; he had no plans to start a religious group.

One must know one’s limitations. With his style, he’d perfectly fit the extreme kinds of dark forces; better not to harm the public.

"The black tea is excellent, thanks for the hospitality, Her Holiness, let’s discuss the official matters now."

Wayne drank the black tea in one gulp and asked Anastasia to help him source the flesh of the Star Beast. Then, they went to the basement to undertake the task for the Dark Goddess.

The Dark Goddess kept secrets for Wayne, and in return, Wayne channeled into the statue the energy chosen by the Five Gods.

That is, the Magic Power gathered at his chest from the five Magic Stones when he merged with nature.

Wayne knew this wasn’t the true aim of the Dark Goddess; she probably didn’t care for such magic power, so he didn’t hold back during the infusion and did it with great care.

Behind him, Anastasia slightly squinted, seemingly logged in by the Dark Goddess.

Her Holy Maiden was pure and noble, wise and virtuous; her Knight was upright and stayed away from women; her earthly manifestations remained pure always.

This wouldn’t do; she still hoped to get information from Wayne!

Since Anastasia was unwilling to come forth, and Wayne remained inactive, she had to give them a push.

You two, get moving!
