T/N: I added about 5 lines at the end of the previous chapter that didn’t show up for some reason when I uploaded it haha
Chapter 104: Let Me Calculate
Shirley didn’t find Kailun, who had already left. She encountered Little Princess Vivian.
Strictly speaking, it was Vivian who took the initiative to visit and bumped into Shirley.
The two sisters looked at each other by the bedside. Vivian carefully sized Hilna up and down before asking, “Did Kailun screw you?”
Hilna: “…”
Hearing her sister utter such a vulgar word, her face turned ugly.
Recalling the painful experience last night, Hilna subconsciously covered herself with the quilt.
She had become unclean, stained with Kailun’s scent, turned into his shape, and finally defeated.
Her heart was already filled with despair, but after last night’s venting, she seemed to have come back to life, in a different form.
“Forget it, with that devil Kailun’s behavior, you’ll have this day sooner or later. I’m not here to talk about you being screwed.”
She said she wouldn’t mention the matter of the princess being screwed, but her words couldn’t leave the word “screw”.
For some reason, she was actually happy to know that her sister had been bullied by Kailun.
It was like she had substituted herself into the dream last night, and she felt inexplicably happy.
“If you came to laugh at me, you’ve achieved your goal, so please leave.” Hilna deliberately turned her head to look out the window.
Vivian crossed her arms, looking smug: “You’re just a dog, yet you dare to talk to me like that? Do you believe I’ll lock you up in prison and bully you hard?”
This simple sentence silenced Hilna. In the hierarchy designated by Kailun, she was indeed a pet-like existence, belonging to the lowest class.
If Vivian really wanted to do something to her, she didn’t even know how to resist.
Touching the magic-suppressing collar on her neck, this was what Kailun put on her after they were done last night.
“But if you answer my questions honestly, I won’t torture you for now. I ask you, if your plan had succeeded, where would you have locked Kailun?”
Because last night’s dream was too real, Vivian couldn’t sleep all night after waking up.
With complicated thoughts, she walked out of the room and bumped into Shirley, so she set her sights on her sister.
Just as a simple verification.
Hilna didn’t think too much and answered directly: “The prison closest to the palace, Kano Prison.”
Hearing this answer, Vivian’s eyes flickered.
Now she could be sure that she had never been to this place, but she clearly remembered the route and layout of Kano Prison in her memory.
She planned to return to the royal city to verify it. If it was really the same as in her memory, then last night’s dream was definitely not just a simple dream.
Recalling the extremely real scenes, her face flushed slightly.
In order not to let Hilna notice her abnormality, Vivian ran out of the room without saying goodbye, leaving Hilna confused.
After Vivian left for a while, Shirley walked in from the door and apologized, “Sorry, Princess, I didn’t find Kailun, he seems to have taken people to the palace of Malaga.”
Hilna’s face darkened: “… If you really called that devil Kailun over, I wouldn’t be able to get out of bed today, and I might not even be able to get out of bed tomorrow.”
She had a clear understanding of Kailun’s character. Knowing her current state, Kailun would definitely screw her again.
Shirley: “???”
……
“Someone from the Temple of the Heavenly God sent a message this morning saying that they are willing to pay a certain price to redeem you. What do you think about this?”
On the way to the palace of the Kingdom of Malaga, Kailun turned to look at Saint Chrissy, who was holding his arm, and asked.
“My opinion doesn’t matter, the key is what you think. Could it be that you are really willing to send me back?” Chrissy pressed her ample breasts against Kailun’s arm, looking at him with pitiful eyes.
Such a good plush ball, Kailun was indeed a little reluctant.
But keeping Chrissy by his side, she could only be a plush ball that could be filled with milk at any time. If this continued, she would definitely be completely ruined.
Compared to simply considering the value of Chrissy’s body, Kailun was more willing to expand her use.
The most important thing was that he had to use Chrissy to influence the Pope, this was a very important step.
“Of course I want to keep you by my side, but I need an insider in the Temple of the Heavenly God.”
Kailun pulled his hand out from the valley between Chrissy’s breasts, stroked her head, and said, “Don’t you want to do something meaningful for me?”
Chrissy looked conflicted: “Of course I do, but I want to be entangled with you day and night even more. Just thinking about being separated makes me feel bad. If I can’t see you for a long time, I will miss you so much that I’ll run into a wall.”
Compared to emotions, what Chrissy conveyed to Kailun was pure desire.
On the path of becoming a plush ball, she could no longer turn back, she had become Kailun’s exclusive plush ball.
In front of others, she was the proud and holy Saint, but in front of him, she was a plush ball who only knew how to please her master.
“Actually, the time we’ll be apart will be very short, maybe less than a month. After that, the Kingdom of Xiya and the Kingdom of Malaga will become the new trade center. This place will gather the attention of the whole world, even the abyss. Therefore, the Temple of the Heavenly God will definitely send someone to keep an eye on this place vigilantly. With your status in the Temple, you are more than qualified for such a task.”
Kailun’s hand landed on Chrissy’s delicate and beautiful ear, rubbing and wandering with his fingers.
Let Chrissy become a real insider, then he would be able to obtain first-hand information about the Temple of the Heavenly God.
“Do we really have to wait for a month?” Chrissy rubbed her face against Kailun’s hand with dissatisfaction.
“Half a month at the fastest, a month at the slowest, there are many influencing factors, it depends on how long your first battle with the abyss will last.”
Kailun shook his head. According to his time estimation, the first battle between the Temple of the Heavenly God and the abyss was about to begin.
The Temple of the Heavenly God incited the world, saying that it was a defensive war for the human race, but in fact, it was a resource war. They gathered their forces to suppress the fiercely resisting abyss and seize the abyss’s mineral resources.
The so-called cooperation of the human race was just an excuse to need cannon fodder. After the event, the kingdoms that contributed wouldn’t get any benefits.
The mine that the Temple of the Heavenly God wanted to seize was the second largest magic crystal mine in the world, with extremely rich reserves.
It was worth mentioning that the largest magic crystal mine in the world was controlled by the Temple of the Heavenly God.
In his previous life, the Temple of the Heavenly God successfully captured the second largest magic crystal mine after paying a heavy price. Relying on its own terrifying reserves, the Temple of the Heavenly God directly raised the price of magic crystals and began to harvest the whole world.
Magic crystals were a necessity for cultivation and daily use, an indispensable resource.
In layman’s terms, once the export of magic crystals was restricted by the Temple of the Heavenly God, many kingdoms would be choked.
After all, there were very few kingdoms that could achieve self-sufficiency in magic crystals, most of them relied on purchasing from the abyss and the Temple of the Heavenly God.
Don’t look at the abyss being constantly demonized, in fact, the abyss had always been suppressed very badly. In order to purchase some daily necessities, the abyss often secretly traded magic crystals with human kingdoms.
The Temple of the Heavenly God had sanctioned this kind of behavior that harmed their own interests countless times, but it hadn’t changed much.
The abyss in his previous life was defeated in this crucial battle and never recovered. Even though the abyss launched an all-out war later, it was to no avail. For more than three years after that, the abyss was constantly suppressed.
This situation didn’t change until Carol emerged as an invincible force.
How strong was Carol?
She instantly killed a ninth-rank in her first appearance, a true World-Ending Witch.
It couldn’t be said that she was overpowered, it could only be said that she was overpowered to the extreme.
“Don’t look at me like that, I’m not kicking you away.”
Seeing Chrissy’s eyes, Kailun explained again: “Besides, don’t you think it’s more interesting when you’re the Saint? During the day, you’re the Saint, in charge of all the affairs of the Temple, and at night, you and I secretly meet to have in-depth discussions and exchanges…”
Along the way, Kailun kept enlightening Chrissy. No matter what others thought, at least he thought it would be very exciting.
The contrast in identity would bring a wonderful feedback, this was not something that a simple plush ball could compare to.
If used properly, he could even cheat the Pope out of a fortune.
The most important thing was that he could also let Chrissy suck the blood of the Temple and indirectly strengthen himself, this was the best way to harvest leeks.
“I understand, but I will only wait for half a month. Once the time is up, I will come to you.”
Arriving in front of the palace of Malaga, Chrissy finally agreed to Kailun’s proposal.
In fact, she wanted to verify it herself, she wanted to know what the Pope really thought of her.
No matter whether what Kailun said before was a lie or not, she could no longer go back.
For Chrissy, what she wanted was just a result. With Kailun’s help, she had completely fallen into the abyss of her heart.
Even if the Pope treated her sincerely, she couldn’t climb out of the abyss woven by Kailun.
Compared to climbing out of the abyss, she was more willing to drag the Pope down to accompany her.
So Chrissy threw herself into Kailun’s arms, raised her head, and asked, “Master, do you hate the Temple of the Heavenly God very much?”
Kailun: “Yes, I hate it very much, I don’t have the slightest bit of goodwill towards the Temple of the Heavenly God.”
“If I send His Holiness the Pope to your bed, will you be satisfied?” Chrissy smiled as she listened to Kailun’s gradually accelerating heartbeat.
Kailun: “If you can do it, I will give you the reward you want.”
Chrissy: “I don’t want a reward, I just want you to make her like me.”
The broken Chrissy had a completely different way of thinking from ordinary people.
Others might feel guilty and remorseful, but she only thought about how to turn the people she cared about into the same as herself and enjoy pleasure together.
Nothing could surpass the blending of souls, if there was, it would be the scene of bringing the Pope along.
Hearing Chrissy’s request, Kailun couldn’t help but smile: “I agree to your request, if possible, I hope she can hate me fiercely. By the way, how old is your Pope this year?”
Chrissy: “The Pope is only ten years older than me, she’s twenty-eight this year.”
Kailun nodded in satisfaction, a young mother who was only twenty-eight years old, he remembered that.
……
“Your Holiness, we have contacted Kailun, and he expressed his willingness to negotiate with us. The Holy Son and Justin are already on their way back. They suffered heavy losses on this trip to the Kingdom of Xiya. As you predicted before your retreat, unknown changes have taken place in the Kingdom of Xiya. Now it seems that these changes are very likely related to Kailun.”
In a cozy bedroom, a young girl in a well-fitting dress was reporting the recent events to the Pope in front of her.
This was Chrissy’s bedroom, she was still living in it half a month ago.
In the girl’s eyes, the Pope was shrouded in a hazy white light, only allowing people to see a vague figure, unable to distinguish between male and female.
“Tell me in detail the information about this Kailun, I want the whole process of his rise, tell me carefully.”
The Pope played with the comb in front of the dressing table, a neutral voice that could not be distinguished between male and female came from the white light.
“Yes, Your Holiness.”
The slender girl bowed again and said, “In the information we collected, Kailun was initially just a student at the Royal Magic Academy of the Kingdom of Xiya. Although he was the son of a duke, he didn’t have any outstanding talent. After several years of study, he was still at the level of a first-rank mage. But half a month ago, he seemed to have suddenly awakened and made all sorts of unthinkable arrangements, breaking the plan of the princess of the Kingdom of Xiya in advance. Then he used the banquet to poison Harry…”
The girl recounted the events one by one, from the various ingenious arrangements to the favorable investment of the Loya Ball, and the large and small wars, all clearly explained.
Although the Temple of the Heavenly God was not as good as the Loya Ball in terms of intelligence, it was still quite famous. In the girl’s narration, the image of Kailun quickly came to life.
Thus, the image of Kailun, who was both smart and cunning, as well as brutal, fell into the Pope’s eyes. Just listening to it made her feel disgusted.
Especially when she heard about Chrissy being captured alive, she was even more furious.
In her opinion, if Kailun was lustful, Chrissy was very likely to be defiled.
“Hmph, a bunch of useless trash, not only did they fail to protect Chrissy, but they also slandered her as a traitor, they simply don’t know how to live or die. I think Joseph is no longer worthy of the position of Holy Son. Tell him that I will prepare for the selection of the Holy Son in advance, it’s time for him to step down.”
The Pope snorted coldly, she hated this kind of behavior of shirking responsibility.
Didn’t she understand Chrissy?
Although she was usually strict, she always treated Chrissy as her own daughter.
In order to prevent her from becoming spoiled, the Pope deliberately controlled the degree of their interaction, she wanted to see the day Chrissy grew up.
She never doubted Chrissy’s loyalty to the Temple. In her opinion, even if she betrayed the Temple, Chrissy wouldn’t.
The girl suggested, “But Your Holiness, the Holy Son hasn’t reached the eighth rank yet, is it really necessary to replace him at this time?”
“His strength is not enough to reach the eighth rank during his term. I gave him so many resources, but he only handed in such an answer sheet, it’s hard for me to invest in him anymore.”
The Pope’s tone was harsh, with obvious dissatisfaction.
In fact, her dissatisfaction with the Holy Son was mainly because Joseph had improper thoughts about Chrissy. Now that she had found a reason, she naturally wanted to remove the Holy Son from his position.
Unlike Chrissy, who was only supported by her, there were some troublesome interest groups behind the Holy Son.
The Saints of all generations, except for the previous Saint, had become her and the Empress’s strength.
But the Holy Sons of all generations still existed, and one of them had even reached the ninth rank.
Although his strength was far inferior to hers, it was extremely difficult for her to kill him.
“Understood, I will issue a notice to let the Holy Son come back, but is it really necessary to use redemption to save the Saint?”
The girl was very puzzled about this. In her opinion, this was an act that would disgrace the Temple.
Even if Kailun had the strength of an eighth-rank, so what?
Directly crush him with ninth-rank strength, not giving him the slightest chance to breathe.
To the girl’s question, the Pope shook her head: “Perle, do you know why I went into seclusion?”
The girl shook her head: “I don’t know, please enlighten me, Your Holiness.”
The Pope slowly said: “This matter has to start with the abyss. As early as a month ago, I used the Temple’s destiny calculation device and calculated a premonition of the world’s destruction, and it will happen within a year. After comparing the results with the Empress, we confirmed the accuracy of this news. After our recalculation, the direction of the collapse of destiny points to the abyss.”
Speaking of which, she put the comb in her hand on the dressing table, looking at her blurry figure in the mirror, she continued: “In other words, the destruction of the world is related to the abyss. In order to prevent the destruction from happening, we plan to capture the abyss’s mines and strangle their throats. In fact, our decision was correct. After successfully capturing the mines, we recalculated, and the premonition of the world’s destruction disappeared.”
In order to stabilize the rule of the Temple, the previous Popes and emperors had used the power of the entire nation to create two special destiny calculation devices.
Generally speaking, the Pope and the emperor would conduct a destiny calculation every year, the results of which were related to the selection of the Holy Son and Saint, the appointment of the new Pope and emperor…
But the results of this kind of calculation could usually only see predictions within a year, and the results were extremely blurry, with obvious flaws.
“But what does this have to do with the Kingdom of Xiya?” Perle tilted her head, her long orange ponytail falling to the other side.
The white light around the Pope fluctuated slightly: “Half a month ago, when we continued to calculate the results, we discovered unexpected changes. The originally clear fate lines became messy, and the world was filled with both destruction and rebirth at the same time. Contradictory answers cannot exist at the same time, something unexpected must have happened. After careful recalculation, we found that all the clues pointed to the Kingdom of Xiya. So I sent the Holy Son and Saint to make arrangements, preferably to take over the Kingdom of Xiya, but they wasted too much time trying to get Kailson to come out of seclusion. If your previous information is correct, then the source of the chaos refers to this person, Kailun.”
She couldn’t understand why an ordinary person would be related to the destruction of the world.
In the past half month, she and the Empress had been constantly calculating and studying the Kingdom of Xiya, but they found that as long as they intervened too much, the destruction of the world would definitely happen, and the time of destruction would be shortly after their intervention.
Not to mention that the Temple of the Heavenly God couldn’t send a ninth-rank to the Kingdom of Xiya while confronting the abyss, even if they could spare a ninth-rank to crush the Kingdom of Xiya, it would still end in destruction.
In the past half month, they had spent a lot of effort and consumed the Fate Stones accumulated over countless years, but they still couldn’t come to an important conclusion.
Powerlessness, this was the first time she felt powerless since becoming a ninth-rank.
They couldn’t find the cause of the destruction, nor could they understand why excessive intervention would lead to the early arrival of destruction.
Taking a step back, only those at the eighth rank and below could act to reduce the consequences of intervention.
Not only the Kingdom of Xiya, but even the calculations regarding the abyss had undergone drastic changes. The other party seemed to have obtained some kind of rebirth.
So she had to connect the abyss and the Kingdom of Xiya.
After bullying the abyss for so many years, the Temple of the Heavenly God simply couldn’t accept the future of the abyss’s rise.
‘Could it be that the Kingdom of Xiya is a traitor to the human race?’ She had thought this countless times.
“In that case, why don’t you send me to kill Kailun? Although I’m only at the eighth rank, I’ve reached the pinnacle of assassination.”
Perle volunteered. In her opinion, if there was no way to solve the problem, then solve the person who created the problem.
Her strength was given to her by the Pope, she should share her worries.
“That… could be worth a try.”
The Pope had a flash of inspiration. She didn’t know Kailun before her retreat, so she couldn’t strike accurately.
But now wasn’t it the right time to send the eighth-rank Perle to solve the problem?
“Wait, let me calculate again. If it’s possible, I’ll send you to negotiate.”
As soon as she finished speaking, the Pope teleported away from Chrissy’s bedroom, leaving behind a gradually dimming white light and a pleasant floral fragrance in front of Perle.
“Could it be that His Holiness the Pope is a woman?”
“Slap, slap!” Perle was startled by her bold thought, she quickly slapped her face and said, “No, no, no! I can’t think like that, or I’ll be dead.”
Perle suppressed the terrifying guess in her heart. This was the first time she had been so close to the Pope. In the past, everyone stood ten meters away to admire the Pope’s glory.
Only Chrissy could have close contact with His Holiness the Pope.
Sitting quietly on the chair and meditating, Perle waited for the Pope’s return.
About four hours later, she heard the Pope’s laughter: “Although I can’t calculate the exact results, the conclusion shows that your assassination will not lead to the destruction of the world. So the task of negotiating to redeem Chrissy is entrusted to you. If there is a chance, kill Kailun, if there is no chance, don’t force it. If there are any unexpected changes, inform me immediately, we will take it one step at a time, don’t mess up the world.”
The Pope never thought that she would be so cautious one day, she was afraid, really afraid.
Wouldn’t it be a huge loss if she was only the Pope for ten years and then the world was destroyed?
Thinking of the few Fate Stones left in stock, she felt a pain in her heart. According to the Temple’s inventory, this kind of rough calculation could only be done a dozen more times.
So they had to quickly defeat the abyss. She heard that there was a fox in the abyss who majored in destiny magic and had a huge stockpile of Fate Stones.
Perle crossed her arms in front of her chest and saluted in the unique posture of the Temple: “As you wish, Your Holiness, I will definitely redeem the Saint and kill Kailun.”
There was excitement in Perle’s eyes, finally… finally she could kill again.
She lowered her head, her smile becoming more and more morbid.
…….
[Because of your brutality towards Chrissy, the Pope has developed disgust for you. Favorability -20, obtained percentage attribute point increase.]
[Carol reached the fourth rank, awakened the special talent: Junior World Devourer. Due to its feedback, total attribute increase by 10%.]
[Junior World Devourer: Magic power absorption efficiency is 50%, no absorption limit, talent level increases with rank, absorption efficiency reaches 100% at the ninth rank.]
After finishing the arrangements for the Kingdom of Malaga, Kailun, who had just walked out of the main hall, received favorability reminders.
First, he thanked the Pope for her generosity. The massive amount of attribute points made Kailun feel invincible.
Secondly, looking at Carol’s talent, he felt that he should have guessed why Carol was called the final boss.
It was known that the absorption efficiency of ordinary people towards pure magic power sources like magic crystals was 2%, and some geniuses could reach 5%.
However, Carol’s was 50% at the fourth rank, and there was no limit or bottleneck.
Suddenly, he wondered if the mine with the fifth largest vein in the world on Duke Stamp’s territory was enough for Carol to use.
