- Chapter 246 - Ciel… Is a Saintess?! (2/4)
“A Tier 3 ‘Subverter’ will be assisting us.”
Ciel explained, “Together, the two of us can complete their control.”
This was something Ciel had practiced in the simulation. If she used the Tier 3 “Subverter” save file to cooperate with Avena, she could complete this task very well, and the combination was even very easy.
“‘Subverter,’ huh…”
Upon hearing this, Avena nodded slightly. “The feasibility has indeed increased significantly…”
Then, Avena seemed to think of something else and asked, “After controlling them? Use them… to poison Forte?”
Even if she controlled two more Tier 3s, Avena didn’t believe they could deal with Forte.
“No, they don’t need to make a move. They just need to be responsible for monitoring Forte’s movements,”
Ciel shook her head. “I will have the Pope of the Church of the God of Order make a move and kill Forte.”
“The Pope… Pope Erigma?”
Avena was a little surprised.
She naturally knew who the Pope of the Church of the God of Order was. At least half of the Roswell family were followers of the Church of the God of Order. Through her environment, she also knew a lot about the Church of the God of Order.
But why would the Church of the God of Order help them?
Not long ago, Ciel had said that the Church of the God of Order was the organization that wanted to capture Nia, and that the Church of the God of Order also had a secret deal with Forte.
In this situation, Avena found it difficult to believe that the Pope of this church would make a move and help them kill Forte… unless that Pope had received more generous rewards or conditions from Ciel than from Forte.
“The organization behind me can enter into certain collaborations with the Church of the God of Order,”
Ciel explained, “The conditions we offer can make the Pope abandon her ideas about Nia, and even directly turn against Forte and plot to kill him.”
It’s that mysterious intelligence organization again…
No wonder Ciel can know so much information…
However, this instead caused a hint of worry to arise in Avena’s heart.
She looked at Ciel before her and asked, “Doing these things… is it also a task given to you by the organization?”
Avena’s question made Ciel freeze in the darkness for a moment.
Is Avena worried that that non-existent organization is using her to do dangerous things?
It seemed that from before, Avena had always harbored some resentment towards the organization Ciel mentioned, because “they” always made Ciel do dangerous things.
“No.”
Ciel shook her head and said, “They are cooperating with me to eliminate those who pose a threat to us.”
“Cooperating with you…”
Ciel’s words made Avena a little confused for a moment.
At first, Avena only thought Ciel was a relatively peripheral, or lower-to-middle level member of this mysterious organization. But judging from the various events now, her previous impression seemed a bit rigid.
“What is your position in this organization?”
Avena couldn’t help but ask.
She had always respected Ciel’s privacy before and hadn’t asked much about Ciel’s secret organization. But now, Avena was truly curious about the structure of this organization.
Because based on all the evidence so far, this organization was very secretive and very powerful, but Ciel seemed to hold considerable power within this organization. A hint of this could be seen from the Tier 2 guard Tara.
A peripheral or lower-to-middle level member of a normal organization would not have a Tier 2 transcendent as their maid, and such a loyal one at that.
Could it be that all her previous assumptions were wrong? Ciel wasn’t forced into certain things and serving this organization, but she was a high-ranking member of this organization?
“What position?”
Ciel was a little stumped by Avena’s question.
This was originally a fabricated organization that was full of loopholes. Now you want Ciel to say her position in this organization?
Should she just make one up now?
“Do you know what a Saintess is?”
Ciel asked tentatively.
“Saintess?”
Avena’s tone rose slightly. Her voice sounded full of worry.
Because of the influence of the Church of the God of Order, she didn’t have a good impression of the word “Saintess.”
In her impression, Saintesses were high-risk and extremely easy-to-die “consumables.”
Suddenly, Avena seemed to think of something. She tightly gripped Ciel’s hand and said with some anger in her voice, “So, the Other Side pollution in your mind, was that their doing?!”
Ciel: “…”
Damn it, she accidentally stumbled into the right answer.
She had originally just wanted to say that her position was similar to that of a Saintess. Although she didn’t have great strength, she was valued and nurtured, and she had considerable authority.
Her current situation, where she was occasionally polluted by the Other Side, was indeed very similar to the Saintesses of those churches.
Avena had already witnessed Nia’s miserable state after being tortured. Hearing that Ciel was also treated like a “Saintess,” it was impossible for her anger to be suppressed.
“Calm down, calm down, Avena.”
Ciel reached out and directly hugged Avena, comforting her. “Exploring the Other Side was just my own choice… Because my strength is lacking, I can only rely on the Other Side for some things…”
Feeling Ciel’s body temperature, Avena’s emotions gradually calmed down. She took a deep breath and said, “They just let you, a ‘Saintess,’ explore the Other Side like that, not even caring if you went into a coma and almost died?”
“In the beginning, if it weren’t for my sharing the burden, you would have already…”
Avena closed her mouth. She knew she was getting emotional, but this matter involved the life and safety of her beloved, so it was understandable that she would have such a stress reaction.
As for the organization behind Ciel, Avena’s impression of it wasn’t very good to begin with. Now, she directly placed that organization at the very bottom of her internal hierarchy of contempt. It was the kind of organization that she would definitely settle accounts with once she had the strength.
Treating Ciel like that… No matter how strong the people in that organization were, they all deserved to die…
Feeling the slightly trembling Avena, Ciel sighed inwardly.
She knew that the mysterious organization she spoke of was getting more and more complicated.
“After this is over, tell me more about the organization… For now, let’s get through this together, okay?”
Before Ciel could speak, Avena directly said to Ciel.
Avena was very clear that the main conflict now was the threat Forte posed to Ciel. The issues with the organization Ciel belonged to could be settled later. For now, they shouldn’t waste too much time on unnecessary matters.
She knew that even if she made things difficult for Ciel now, Ciel would likely say something, but it wouldn’t help resolve this matter at all.
“Alright, I promise you.” Ciel nodded.
Avena’s clear-headedness relieved Ciel. She was worried that Avena would dwell on this matter and waste too much time.
