The saintess I possessed had a head full of nonsense.

Claire's face visibly darkened as she stared at Christine in shock and anger.

Isaac, that bastard!

Even though he found a reason to spare her from those tedious and tiring jobs, that bastard probably still revealed it in a boastful manner. That makes sense, what exactly is he expecting from that kind of spoiled rich kid?

Now that the pretense was over, Claire stopped pretending. She said coldly, "Holy Maiden, do you know what it feels like to have something you've worked so hard for taken away? If something you've worked so hard for was taken away, what would you do?"

“I’ll ask around just like you,” Christine chuckled. “I think Miss Claire isn’t working enough. What was the reason you don’t need to work right now?”

Someone like Miss Claire is best off filling the void in her life with a full schedule of work, so she won't have time to overthink things, after all…

Christine let go, and Claire, who had been helped up halfway, fell heavily to the ground. Christine crouched down and sneered:

"A rotten orange is a rotten orange."

Claire sat there, stunned, her pupils reflecting Christine's departing figure. After an unknown amount of time, she let out a piercing scream: "Christine!"

Her gray-blue eyes were filled with resentment. Her hands, which were braced against the ground, clenched tightly, crushing the debris from the wall into powder, revealing her bloodstained teeth.

The event "A Mortal Retaliation Against Sister Claire" has been completed, and the random status seal [Blessing of Courage] from the Bible has been obtained.

[My God, how could my naturally sweet red lips utter such heartless words?]

My assessment is: [Wave Burst] Why didn't it break her back? During the weekend, if she could only be passive, she should have quickly made that jerk Isaac lose interest.

[Unfortunately, probably because it was a public place, she didn't dare tie up Claire, the beaker, too. Otherwise, I would have let her know that even if we both became sex slaves, she would only be the spare one, oh ho ho ho ho.]

Miss Saint's strange competitive mentality.

[Huh? It's [Blessing of Courage]! As expected of this saintess's brain. I was already trying to condense it, and it must have been when I came into contact with Claire's [Blessing of Courage] that I was also boosted by [Insatiable Greed].]

[Damn it, even though she unexpectedly gained [Surge Burst], with such a small surge... she should be thinking of buying a few drinks right now.]

Is she misunderstanding something?

Just like there's no wife in a wife cake, a beverage can't cure it.

Just as Li Xuan was about to check the effect of [Blessing of Courage], suddenly, Saint Christine's body bumped into someone.

Looking up, old blind Chris used his sword sheath to block the impact. He said seemingly casually, "If you had the 'Mind's Eye,' the Holy Maiden wouldn't have been ambushed by Miss Claire, nor would she have rashly bumped into me."

"Um, I mean, do you need me to testify for you?"

Chapter 9 Appearances can be deceiving.

A competent game company that focuses on monetization wouldn't be foolish enough to completely clarify the mage's class system in version 1.0—after all, whether it's a novel or a game, arbitrarily changing maps is a major flaw.

For example, Li Xuan had some game information, but he didn't even know what the realm above "Warlock" was.

However, Sword Saint Chris meets all your expectations of a "strong person". In the church, he immediately sensed the birth of the [Wave Burst] and came to the entrance of the training ground. He even heard her and Claire's conversation from afar.

Saint Christine, who had only been a sorcerer for less than a week, condensed the spell mark of [Wave Burst], which successfully caught the attention of the old blind man Chris—he didn't mind creating a chance encounter and using words to guide Christine to cultivate [Mind's Eye].

This delighted Li Xuan, as it meant that the game information he possessed was not significantly different from that of this world.

But to Li Xuan's surprise, was that all the old blind man Chris was interested in about Christine?

A genius mage like Christine is very likely to have acquired the three-piece set of [Surge Burst], [Mind's Eye], and [Killing Intent Surge].

But all she received was a seemingly casual, simple guidance from the swordsman Chris.

Clearly, he doesn't have a strong desire to take on apprentices.

But it doesn't matter, Li Xuan knows the inside story, all he needs to do is collect the three pieces.

[Hmm? I didn't realize this old blind man had such a kind heart. But what's the point of reporting him? The most powerful person here is Bishop Isaac. Besides making Claire punish herself, what other purpose does reporting him serve?]

Li Xuan knew about punishing himself with a cup of wine, but what the hell was this about punishing himself with a single stick of liquor?!

[Mind's Eye? Fluctuation Burst] There are shortcuts to playing with fluctuations, and maybe there are shortcuts to [Mind's Eye] too. I've heard a proverb, "A small knife pulls the butt—it opens my eyes."

Miss Saint is good at applying knowledge to new situations.

Li Xuan was truly startled. Fortunately, such a bizarre method did not gain his subconscious approval; otherwise, Christine's little hand might have already been placed on the old blind man Chris's sword sheath due to [behavioral assistance], ready to open her eyes!

If Mr. Chris is indeed discussing [Fluid Burst] with Sister Monica, perhaps he could offer me some advice on [Mind's Eye]?

Saint Christine did indeed develop a slight interest in the "Mind's Eye".

[Help Saint Christine get closer to the blind old man Chris. Completing this event will reward you with a random sigil from the Bible.]

Li Xuan discovered that the trigger for the incident was largely related to Christine's ideas!

You can never have too many magic seals.

He shook his head with Christine's head: "No need, there's no point in punishing myself with a drink. It's best for Mr. Chris to stay away from me. I've already seriously offended His Holiness the Bishop."

This is a good opportunity to tell Sword Saint Chris about Christine's current situation. You think I'm on the first level, a kind saint who doesn't want to involve others, while you're on the second level, actually a super big shot. But in reality, I'm on the third level, knowing you're a super big shot and acting on purpose.

It's impossible for the Sword Saint Chris to be on the fourth floor, because Christine is only a 3-star warlock.

Li Xuan even deliberately used Christine's body to pose in a way that would be extremely awkward and ridiculous if they were face to face, in order to block Claire's view of Sword Saint Chris. This kind and beautiful silly girl, no good person would be willing to let her be bullied by a scum like Bishop Isaac, right?

Staring into the old blind man Chris's empty, cloudy eyes, Li Xuan wondered to himself—was this considered flirting with a blind man?

It would be awkward if this scene were completely unnoticed from the perspective of "Mind's Eye".

Deep within the training grounds, Claire saw Christine standing at the entrance with her back turned, wiggling her hips as if mocking her disgraceful behavior in front of Bishop Isaac. Enraged, she coughed up a mouthful of blood, clutching her head and screaming hoarsely, "Christine!"

Thank you for your help.

"If it's just a nun, I might be able to help. But facing the bishop directly is beyond my capabilities, haha." Old blind Chris seemed startled, chuckled, and turned to leave, but paused, leaving a piece of advice before departing:

Beware of those who have nothing.

[Is this all the enforcer is? I thought he'd shout "My fate is in my own hands, not in the heavens!" and fight alongside me against the bishop.]

I strongly suspect he used a sleight of hand to pry open his anus, which is why he's using his "secret weapon." If he still had my mouth, I would definitely ask, "Did you do Kegel exercises today?" If he gives himself away, it's definitely a shortcut he took with his "secret weapon"!

You think you're so smart.

The event "Bringing Christine and Chris Closer" has been completed, and a random sign from the Bible, "The Price of Impulsiveness," has been obtained.

Appearances can be deceiving; beauty is one of a woman's most powerful weapons. Even without desire, it can involuntarily generate attraction—in short, the swordsman Chris was fooled.

Miss Saintess, your body is so useful!

With increased favorability and the "Volatility Burst" buff, Sword Saint Chris should take better care of Christine, right?

Because he offended Bishop Isaac beforehand, Li Xuan would be in a lot of trouble if he opened his eyes the next time he was possessed and found himself tied up by Isaac, or in a bucket filled with cement.

Li Xuan was genuinely afraid that he would be forced to kidnap a beautiful passing nun again because of Miss Saint's wild thoughts, so he quickly headed towards Christine's bedroom.

After posing for photos, the exceptionally talented saintess had ample free time to cultivate and didn't need to participate in anything for the time being, as she was currently in the peak period of her magical seal.

If she possesses the expected talent for a sorcerer, then the Church of Light would not mind truly nurturing a saintess.

[Another new spell mark! "The Price of Impulsiveness"—how did this happen? Could it be that she regrets humiliating Bishop Isaac because of what old blind Chris said?]

Perhaps it was the emergence of the "fluctuation burst" that gave her a new plan.

[As expected of this saintess's talent (-)]

Putting aside the Saintess's head full of filthy imperial thoughts, she is still quite clever and knows how to make excuses for herself.

Li Xuan ignored her arrogance and examined the two newly acquired magical seals.

Blessing of Courage

Limitation: You are not in a state of fear.

Effect: Grants up to 3 units (including yourself) within a 20m radius circle centered on yourself a mana boost equal to 20% of your mana, lasting until your mana is depleted or you manually cancel the effect. Cooldown: 3 minutes.

The Price of Impulsiveness

Limitations: Only those with a short temper can glean insights from the Bible; this seal can only be formed once; this seal disappears after it takes effect.

Effect: Anger is a sign of incompetence and loss of reason. A divine warning. This effect can be triggered when one is enraged, increasing spell power by 30% for 10 minutes, but you must choose to permanently lose a spell sign.

dong dong dong dong!

Suddenly, a large number of black-clad enforcers emerged from all directions of the corridor, surrounding Saint Christine.

Splash!

The black-clad enforcers moved in perfect unison, making way for Bishop Isaac, whose face was grim, as he approached from a distance.

A sinister glint flashed in his eyes as he stared at Christine, and he spoke coldly, with the air befitting a bishop:

"Saint Christine, the spell mark [Green Tea Bitch] has many effects, but only by cultivating Aphrodite's 'Canon of Desire' can one achieve the effect you have."

You think this matter is flawless, but little do you know that I have condensed the rare magical seal [Prism] from the Bible, which can reflect the magical seals of others.

"You're the mole within the church. Now, do you have anything to add?"

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 10 Truth or Dare

When the difference in magical power is not significant, a sorcerer can sense the effect of a spell when the opponent uses a spell.

But Bishop Isaac shouldn't have been able to do it.

Because he was under the influence of the "Green Tea Bitch" spell, he had no intention of actively sensing the effects of the spell.

Fortunately, he condensed the rare magic seal [Light Prism] from the Bible, which later revealed the effect of the [Green Tea Bitch] magic seal.

A typical "green tea bitch" might amplify the attraction effect by 2-3 times at most, but Christine's "green tea bitch" can amplify it by up to 100 times, making her the ultimate, truly top-tier "green tea bitch"!

"I thought she was some pure and virtuous saint, but it turns out she's just a whore!"

Instead of getting angry, Isaac laughed.

Just as the Bible has its own "exclusive seals" for the seven deadly sins, such as "insatiable greed" and "the cost of impulsiveness," the "ultimate green tea bitch" is the "exclusive seal" of the "Lustful God Cult's" technique, "The Canon of Desire."

This means that Christine must have cultivated the "Desire Canon," and that she was actually a high-level agent who, underwent political vetting as a village girl, infiltrated the Church of Light, and temporarily became a saintess!

Suddenly, he lay down again.

He licked the shoe print on the floor and revealed a twisted smile.

He then immediately led his men to capture Saint Christine.
