Chapter 883: Chapter 331: Another Egg Laid?_2

This part of consciousness entered Anastasia’s body and merged with the newly arrived part of the Dark Goddess’ consciousness, resulting in an instant corruption that both startled and delighted the Dark Goddess.

She hurriedly returned to the Divine Nation to study, feeling confident in her success.

Having obtained what she desired, the Dark Goddess clearly pointed out the location of the resources, "Go find my Dark Knight, where he acquired Twilight Deadlock, that is where you’ll find what you need..."

"I will have Anastasia direct the Dark Church’s resources for you, she is my Holy Maiden. No matter the influence she has on the Church, no one dare speak ill of her."

These words were heavily weighted, affirming Anastasia’s status and demonstrating the Dark Goddess’ attitude towards the Church.

Gods care not!

"Furthermore, my relationship with Anastasia is far better than how other Goddesses treat their Holy Maidens. Each time I descend, I can sense her thirst for faith. What I just did was simply to help her fulfill her dream; you must not misunderstand my intentions."

The Dark Goddess guided, "Perhaps you can help her correct her thoughts and rebuild her rationality time after time, but her core needs remain unfulfilled, and the therapeutic effects will weaken each time. She’ll only become more insane."

"If you truly care about her, for her sake, you should indulge her desires appropriately instead of suppressing them forcefully time after time, leading her into confusion and fear."

Wayne listened expressionlessly, tagging the Dark Goddess with the label of a nightclub manager. A goddess couldn’t possibly be so idle as to care about the nightlife of her subordinates; more likely, she had ulterior motives.

It couldn’t possibly be genetic information; that would be too far-fetched.

Wayne raised an eyebrow, "Goddess, you are right. I will communicate closely with Anastasia for some time to come. To avoid any embarrassment, please refrain from descending at will for the time being."

Wayne advised the Goddess to lay low; otherwise, if she switched places with Anastasia at a critical moment, don’t expect him to stop halfway.

Die laughing, he would just pretend not to notice, and then intensify!

The Dark Goddess assured it was no problem, confident that Wayne most likely wouldn’t lay a hand on Anastasia. She decided to start from Anastasia, such a beautiful and pure Holy Maiden; she didn’t believe Wayne could resist the test.

This was a sure bet!

After the Dark Goddess left, Anastasia stood in place with a look of panic, her eyes flickering, too scared to meet faith’s gaze.

She had heard the conversation just now and hoped that faith would remain true to itself and not issue excessive commands to her, otherwise...

She could only obey.

"Don’t panic, my promise still stands. First, let’s perform an operation on you to see why she’s always successful in descending."

Wayne dragged Anastasia into the Pale Nest, where her mental and physical form were disassembled and reassembled, repeatedly checked, but he couldn’t find any coordinates left by the Dark Goddess.

This time, it was unrelated to the intensity of evolution; it was purely a matter of personal ability. To find and remove the coordinates, it could only wait until thirty years on the west bank of the Themes River.

Looking at the pitiful Anastasia, Wayne felt a pang of pity: "You’ve had a hard time, caught between me and the Dark Goddess. This retribution should not have been yours to bear."

Anastasia was touched by this, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke up, "My faith, the Dark Goddess will not rest until her goal is achieved. Instead of letting her scheme succeed, it’s better for us to take the initiative and break the stalemate to stop her."

What does that mean? In order to prevent a kidnapper from shooting the hostage, do we shoot the hostage first?

That’s a bit too...

Oh, you’re really a feisty one.

Wayne couldn’t complain, dismissing Anastasia’s suggestion with a wave. He would be the one to deal with the Dark Goddess; Anastasia just had to stay true to herself.

Anastasia sighed in her heart. It had taken a lot of courage for her to speak up, yet she was met with a ruthless rejection.

Happy that her faith would only feel compassion for her, he was a good faith. Disappointed that her charm was insufficient, she had been presumptuous, providing only fodder for ridicule.

Wayne heard the voice of Anastasia’s heart, and his facial expression couldn’t have been more bizarre. What did she mean by insufficient charm; she lacked some self-awareness.

"Rest well tonight; I won’t bother you further. Contact Church headquarters as soon as possible, and have the resources I want sent to Lundan," Wayne instructed.

Anastasia nodded and then, biting her lip, persisted, "My faith, will you stay here tonight?"

Wayne did not speak, but took Anastasia’s hand and kissed it like a gentleman, "Your Holiness, I am honored to have your acknowledgment. I am not that noble; to do so would only hurt you."

Having said that, he left straightaway.

At the Magical Department Headquarters, a high-level meeting was taking place.

Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows into the spacious conference room, illuminating the classically styled long conference table, reflecting off the polished, gleaming surface, presenting a warm, lustrous sheen.

The long table was costly, its edges and legs carved with intricate patterns, and the matching high-backed chairs epitomized elegance and classic style to the utmost.

The chairs had high, firm backs, presenting a dignified stature, also adorned with beautiful patterns, harmonizing with the long table, highlighting the overall cohesion and unity.

One must say, the design concept was good.

Minister Sophia was seated at the head position, with Deputy Ministers Wayne and Austin flanking her left and right, respectively. The other Deputy Minister, Ivette, and the rest of the senior staff were seated together, distanced from Sophia.

This was the current situation at the Magical Department Headquarters; the Queen was the Minister, cornered on both sides by father and son of the Lando Family.

Legendary Mages participating in the high-level meeting included Planck, Borne, Herman, Celeste, Bedford; aside from Herman, who was a steadfast royalist, the others were either loyal to Wayne or leaned toward the Lando Family’s Riding Strong Faction.
