Mage Manual Chapter 213 - 213 186 Sorry to Disturb You

Chapter 213: Chapter 186 Sorry to Disturb You Chapter 213: Chapter 186 Sorry to Disturb You “This is just ridiculous, every attack aid at her turns into a boost for her escape.”

Ash quietly retreated back into his camp of Foreigners, grumbling, “This has gone beyond the realm of ‘coincidence.’ Could she be the Fated Girl favored by Fate?”

“If that’s the case, doesn’t that make you the Child of Destiny?” Harvey laughed.

“What?”

“Indeed.” Igula couldn’t help but say, “I wanted to deal with you, but ended up being frad by you, forced to join the escape team; Valcas wanted to deal with you, but ended up protecting you during the Blood Moon Judgent; and we just happened to run into a Necromancer who could control the chip processor… An escape plan that should have taken years to devise, but because of you, we assembled all the key players and got out in less than a month.”

“Think about it, Cult Leader, your escape experience is actually more bizarre than the doll girl’s.”

“It’s not the sa, okay!” Ash argued, “Isn’t it normal for prisons to be full of people skilled in various escape skills? It’s like asking people on a train if they have tickets, of course everyone bought them!”

“Besides, the escape wouldn’t have been successful without my amazing willpower, tireless effort, tenacious perseverance, and those monts of Spiritual Light— it’s all personal effort, not a drop of luck!”

At this point, even Harvey couldn’t help but show a ‘right, right, right, I won’t argue with a fool’ kindly smile.

“Double standard dog.” Igula spat, “Your successes are all personal effort, and others are just favored by Fate? Is it that hard to admit you’re a slacker?”

“What I’m doing is correctly utilizing talent resources, allowing you to use your strengths, letting professionals handle the professional tasks—”

Igula sneered, “Typical, slackers never admit they’re slackers, and the lucky never admit luck plays a part.”

“I’ve had an epiphany.” Ash revealed a smug expression, “You’re trying to suppress again, you also think I’m important, so you’re bullying with words, right?”

Igula twitched his mouth in frustration, “You double standard dog…”

“Alright, alright.” Harvey hurriedly defused the situation, changing the subject, “If we had jumped in just now, we would’ve only faced one doll girl with no real offensive power. But now…”

“And it’s possible that the otherside is the major stronghold of the Four Pillars God Sect.” Igula said irritably, “And as we already know, our dear Cult Leader doesn’t have a very high standing within his own power.”

As Ash watched the bubbling water in the cave, he couldn’t help but beco slightly distracted.

He suddenly rembered, in one of the observation reports collected by Professor Selin, one ntioned ‘a subterranean river lay on the other end of the passage into the Void Realm’…

Could Eternal Damnation be in the Kingdom of Blood Moon?

What is this? A tactical switcharoo?

Click.

The three illegal aliens looked up to see Cleos walking up to them, her lovely, big eyes swollen from crying, her nose sniffling, “You three, are you people from the Exotic Realm?”

“According to the laws of the Kingdom of Gospel, the Kingdom of Gospel, anyone from an Exotic Realm must be executed imdiately.”

Without giving them a chance to explain, she raised her gun to aim at Ash’s forehead, “May the Gospel guide your path.”

Looking at the dark muzzle of the gun, Ash realized he was still in danger— they were not considered under the protection of local law enforcent but rather as invasive species, like Arican cockroaches, where it is a basic moral duty for a good citizen to squash such pests!

To them, the Four Pillars God Sect was indeed a brutal beast, but the locals were even more ferocious natives!

Compared to the Four Pillars God Sect, the local law enforcent was even more despairing— bad guys still have good people to fight them, but if good people want to go against them, who can disrupt their plans?

Just then, a pleasant voice ca from above.

“Hold on a second, Cleos, didn’t we agree that I get the spoils?”

Soone was there to rescue them!

As the three smugglers turned their heads in joyful surprise, thinking they would be eternally grateful to whoever was saving them—

In the next second, all their gratitude turned to annoyance.

“Long ti no see, you three.”

The girl in purple leaped down from the hole in the ceiling, landing softly like a butterfly, “Although we just t an hour ago.”

The housekeeper boy followed closely behind. He pointed to the ground still covered with water, and a path of frost extended forward, allowing the girl’s tall boots to step onto the clean ice surface.

These two were the ambushers outside the Void Realm channel, the culprits who sold the bodies of the trio to the Four Pillars God Sect, mbers of the Funeral Service Office!

“Hanna,” Cleos took out a handkerchief and wiped her nose, “do you really want to save these foreigners?”

“It’s not about saving them, but taking back what belongs to ,” Hanna said with a smile in her purple dress. “We agreed earlier that, as a reward for my reporting the Four Pillars God Sect’s base to Red Hat, those three are my spoils, and you just can’t dispose of them as you wish.”

So, they sold us and then sold out the Four Pillars God Sect, playing both black and white sides for a double win, and now they still want to recoup us for reuse?

Ash gave Igula a look—See, your kind.

Igula shook his head—No, your kind.

“These three are foreigners,” Cleos enunciated clearly. “Like Selena, they are pests that harm the world, and they blasphe the Gospel; they must be executed as soon as possible. Otherwise, once the Gospel disappears from behind their ears, they will go back and inform the Exotic Realm’s Evil God behind them, leading demons here to trample our fields, our city, and innocent civilians.”

Gospel behind the ears?

“Ash, turn your head to the right.”

“Why shouldn’t I look at yours instead…”

While muttering, Ash obediently turned his head, and Igula took a glance and said softly, “There’s a light yellow countdown behind your ear, probably starting from 72 hours, likely to prevent us from traveling through space.”

“That is the Eternal Damnation of the All-knowing Weaver for you demons who dare to invade the Kingdom of Gospel,” Cleos pressed the gun muzzle to Ash’s forehead. “Before the countdown ends, those of us who listen to the Gospel will slay all of you blind and foolish demons.”

Ash and his companions exchanged glances, the sa thought arising in each of their minds—It seems the invasion defense chanism of this kingdom isn’t very good, they must have known, since soone had successfully returned alive to the Kingdom of Blood Moon from here three days ago, which is why they had the Hunting Festival on May 1st.

“They can no longer do that,” the girl in purple chuckled. “After they ca to Gospel, the Void Realm channel they crossed through was closed. They can’t go back now. If you don’t believe it, you can check the Gospel Book to see if I’m lying.”

Cleos hesitated, “You didn’t lie to ?”

“Checking if I’m lying is cheap, right? You’re not willing to spend even those points? I’ll treat you if it cos to it.”

“No need,” Cleos’s eyes reddened again. “But they are still foreigners…”

“That ans even if you kill them, you won’t get any points,” the girl in purple explained. “I just checked; these three have no bounties in the Gospel Book, you can’t improve your Red Hat ranking by killing them. On the contrary, if you breach the contract that states the spoils belong to , it would greatly impact your credit record for Red Hat rankings. You might even drop out of the ‘Red Hat Leaderboard’ because of that.”

“But they are not spoils…”

“So you’re admitting they are natural persons? They have no criminal records now, and it’s taboo for a Red Hat to kill a natural person without one.”

Cleos sniffled, “You people from the Funeral Service Office always have such twisted logic… But they are ultimately foreigners with a high likelihood of cri. If you want to take them with you, you need ans to control them.”

“I’m already prepared.”

The girl in purple took out three contracts with golden edges and white backgrounds: “Directly exchanged from the Gospel Book, bound by both the Void Realm and the All-knowing Weaver, and not even a Four-winged Legendary can breach it. As long as they sign these three contracts and accept my conditions, they will absolutely be unable to harm Gospel. Are you satisfied now?”

“I bet Doran’s na that under my command, they will only beco a force for the Gospel.”

Cleos raised the muzzle of her gun, seemingly persuaded, “If that’s the case…”

They looked at the three pitiful, weak and helpless smugglers sitting on the ground who, under normal circumstances, should be begging to sign the contract and spare their lives with tears and sobs by now.

However, the trio remained silent, calmly looking at them.

“It seems they don’t want to be bound,” Cleos once again pressed the gun muzzle to Ash’s forehead. “Since all the cultists need to be buried anyway, a few more won’t matter—”

“Don’t rush, Cleos,” the girl in purple squatted down to look at them. “Don’t you want to live? Why aren’t you saying anything?”

The three exchanged glances, and at last, Ash said, “I actually want to speak, but seeing how imrsed you both are in your act, I didn’t want to interrupt you.”
