The Villain Saint is my secondary account

"Although the ritual was interrupted, Beverly eventually died due to excessive divine power."

As soon as Ella finished speaking, she thought the Grand Master would burst into tears, but she found that he was just biting his lip and holding back his sobs.

"I... I'm telling you this not because I mean anything else, but because I think it must be important to you." Ella didn't know how to deal with this kind of crybaby, so she could only try her best to comfort her.

“Mmm… thank you… Saintess…” Vanessa sobbed, “Aurora said… Waaah… Bishop… don’t cry… waaah…”

As she spoke, tears, which she couldn't hold back, slowly slid down the girl's face.

Sigh... Ella patted Vanessa's bobbing head helplessly and looked out the window.

……

Meanwhile, Ye Xiao, having washed himself, also left the sanctuary and strolled around the giant pit. Sure enough, he found Eileen on the edge of a cliff.

A girl with long, beige hair sat on a bare cliff, hugging her knees, gazing at the bustling city below, lost in thought.

"Hey... beautiful lady over there, think it over carefully. Everyone has their own dreams and lives their own wonderful life. Once you jump off this cliff, there's no going back."

"...What nonsense is this?" Eileen frowned slightly and turned around. "Oh, it's you, you rascal."

"Seriously? I tried so hard today, and I still can't change your prejudice against me." Ye Xiao put her hands on her hips. "Even now, you still don't believe that what happened in that pond last time was really because I slipped?"

"Just tell me if you saw it or not... Humph."

"Okay, I see a little bit."

"Hey, you actually admit it!?"

"I was just kidding, I actually saw two things..."

"Are you trying to kill me?!" Eileen jumped up angrily and grabbed Ye Xiao's clothes.

"Hey, hey, why are you always getting handsy?" Ye Xiao nimbly dodged. "But seeing how...active you are, I'm relieved."

“What do you mean by ‘active’…” Eileen sat back down on the stone stool beside her, this time not as precariously perched on the cliff edge. “So, you’re just going to offer a few words of comfort, go through the motions, and then leave? Just like last time?”

"Um..." Ye Xiao scratched his head, "Well, how should I put it, I'm just an ordinary adventurer after all..."

"It's that same excuse again." Eileen pouted in dissatisfaction. "It was the same last time, and then they just disappeared without a trace."

"Why do you make me sound like some scumbag who did something bad?" Ye Xiao chuckled.

“Of course… of course it’s not necessarily a bad thing.” Eileen rested her beautiful face on her hands and sighed. “Thank you… thank you very much, and of course, the great Saintess.”

"To be honest, without you guys, not to mention me, the entire Malz family and Stormport might have disappeared."

"But after going through all of this... how could I not feel terrible?"

“My father has become like this, and my brother has been imprisoned as a heretic who colluded with the evil god…”

"I understand that this outcome is... somewhat of their own doing, but after all, they are family who love me..."

"Do you know why I went to the Howling Mountains last time...? Because my grandfather passed away, and he was the family member who cared for me the most..."

“I flipped through my family’s records and found a place that could bring the dead back to life, so I thought… I wanted to give it a try.”

"This is indeed a bit stupid, laugh if you want... It even caused my butler Arnold, who had always taken care of me, to leave me..."

Your housekeeper is actually no good; his presence will influence your values.

Ye Xiao wanted to add something, but then she thought that everyone else had already passed away, and saying it would be a bit of a mood killer.

“Now it’s my father and brother again…my mother passed away before my grandfather…” Eileen said, her voice becoming somewhat soft, “It’s just…suddenly…it feels like I’m the only one left in the whole family.”

"But you don't need to worry. I... I understand that crying won't help. Now that I've inherited the lord's position, I still need to lead this city. Crying won't solve anything."

"Well, it seems you've grown quite a bit." Ye Xiao thought of the arrogant and spoiled young lady he had met at the tavern before, and realized that Eileen was indeed very different now.

"If I could, I still wouldn't want to grow up like this." Eileen broke off a small stone from Atsuko's head and threw it angrily.

"There's nothing we can do about it; people always grow through loss."

"Tsk, you're full of grand theories, but you're not that much older than me, are you? Stop pretending to be mature."

"That's right, you're the first person to figure out my real age."

"You know how slovenly you are, so why did you grow such a long beard?"

“Shaving doesn’t increase your fighting ability.”

"puff."

"What's so funny about this?"

"I'm laughing at you for being such an idiot." Eileen got up from the stone stool and tugged at Ye Xiao's sleeve. "Alright, stop guarding me. I'm going back to the sanctuary to stay with Vanessa."

Ye Xiao smiled and said, "That's good. Vanessa probably needs you right now."

What are you talking about?

“It’s nothing… but I think you’ll make a good lord.” Ye Xiao shrugged. “We’ve only avoided annihilation, but the deepest problems in this city remain.”

"The people at the bottom are still oppressed, gangs are everywhere, the upper class is living a life of luxury while the lower class is suffering... If these problems are not resolved, they will sooner or later become a breeding ground for evil gods."

"But I'm not asking you to rush into making any decisions. These deeply rooted issues can't be resolved by forcibly forcing them to change their minds."

“But I can see that, Miss Eileen, you are different from those nobles, so at the beginning of this war I only sought you out.”

"Just as I knew then that you would choose to help me, I know that the future you are building will be better than it is now."

“What you’re saying,” the girl said, her face slightly flushed, “is something I’m still quite confused about myself.”

"No need to rush, just take your time."

"Hmph! Easy for you to say. You just want to wash your hands of this and walk away." Eileen wrinkled her pink little nose. "You say you believe me, but it's just that you don't want to get involved."

Why are the girls in this other world so hard to fool? Where did they learn so many complicated and intricate things?

Ye Xiao was somewhat taken aback. "Ahem, well, you can't say that. After all, I'm just an ordinary adventurer..."

"Here we go again," Eileen said angrily. "Don't you have any other excuses besides this one?"

"Ah this..."

"Sigh... don't think of me as such... such a clingy person." Eileen twirled a strand of hair behind her ear. "So eager to sever ties, like you're some kind of big trouble."

Ye Xiao was very curious to know who Eileen's literature teacher was. In a world of swords and magic, why bother teaching such a messy subject so clearly?

"Alright, look at you..." Eileen sighed. "I don't mean to bother you with anything. I'm sensible. I know you're busy saving the world in other places and there are other girls to take care of."

"I'm not that noble, and as for the last sentence, that's slander..."

"But... next time I encounter difficulties, could you... come and help me again?"

"Um... well, I'm not Superman either..."

"Just tell me... is it okay or not?" Eileen grabbed Ye Xiao's sleeve, staring intently into his eyes, and asked seriously, "Is it okay or not?"

Ye Xiao paused, then looked up at the girl's pale blue eyes that reflected the setting sun.

In the distance, several seabirds flew past the long trail of lingering sunset glow.

Night slowly rises from below the horizon, and the bustling city lights up in countless homes.

A gentle sea breeze, carrying the fragrance of rain, lightly lifted the tips of her beige hair. The soft glow of the setting sun caressed her slightly flushed cheeks, like a golden veil draped over a young girl's face.

Those beautiful eyes were smiling, but glistening tears clung to the corners.

How am I supposed to say no...?

"Oh well... I'll do my best."

"Hey, we've come this far, why are you being so reluctant to agree! It's a deal, okay?"

"Okay, okay, it's a deal!"

End of volume remarks

Thank you all for your support! This book has finally reached the completion of its third volume.

Compared to the previous volumes, this one has a more complex and longer storyline, which can be considered a new challenge for the author. I wonder what everyone thinks of this volume.

The villain in this volume might make the story feel more oppressive, but correspondingly, it also aims to better showcase the charm and chemistry between the two main characters.

After all, Ella and Ye Xiao are both so strong, it's really not easy to design a scene where they play a mixed doubles match, hahaha!

Actually, the author originally planned to finish the ending of the third volume by resolving some plot holes left from the previous volumes, such as the origin of the fake saintess, the confession with her best friend, the whereabouts of Haoming and Dean, the little girl's abilities, and what happened between Ella and the second prince in the parallel world.

But after thinking about it, this is too much. If we cram it all in, the ending of the third volume will seem bloated.

So after finishing writing about the girl's confession under the setting sun, I suddenly felt that this was a good ending for the volume.

Having explained the end of the battle and the fate of the main characters, the story is light and doesn't feel heavy.

It's a perfect ending to a long and arduous battle, like returning home from school at dusk after a major exam, lying in bed, having a hazy yet beautiful dream.

Although there are still many unresolved issues, the story ultimately needs to be told in a gentle and detailed manner to be truly engaging.

So don't worry, everyone, the author will continue to tell you these unfinished stories in the fourth volume.

In the new volume, the main characters will return to the capital, and the story of the Twin Dragon Sword Saints from the previous volume will continue. The secrets hidden deep within the old king and the Loren royal family will also be revealed in this volume.

Of course, more players and Ye Xiao's former good friends will also appear, and their presence will become more and more prominent as time goes by.

So, this concludes Volume 3. Thank you all for your company. The new adventure will continue, and we'll see you in the next volume! Hahaha!

Volume Four: The Struggle for the Throne by Five Sons

Chapter One: A Peaceful Morning

In the early morning, sunlight streamed onto the clean windowsill.

Ye Xiao slowly opened her eyes and saw that the silk curtains in the spacious and clean room were swaying slightly, and sunlight was flashing through the gaps between the curtains from time to time.

That night, he could say he had a rare good night's sleep.

There are no formidable enemies to confront, nor any perplexing mysteries.

He stretched slightly, got out of bed, and washed up.

Looking at my slightly misty eyes in the mirror, I felt a sense of peace and tranquility, as if I had returned to the days before I traveled back in time.

However, this beard does seem a bit too thick, hanging from the ears all the way to the chin, and it's starting to have a kind of ancestral beauty.

If he were sent back to Earth, he would be an eighteen-year-old fresh out of college entrance exams, and being called "uncle" every day on the street would surely shake his spirit.

Thinking of this, he picked up the small knife on the sink, lathered it with soap, and prepared to clean his chin, removing the annoying beard.

After the great battle of the previous day, the Seven Luminaries will temporarily relocate to the Ocean Sanctuary for rest and recuperation.

The refugees from Horn Village outside the city have now been taken in by the Fishermen's Guild and settled in Storm Harbor, where they have found a street in the harbor area.

The Liancheng Bridge is not yet fully completed, so transportation between the North and South cities, which are separated by the strait, currently relies solely on boat connections.

However, they weren't in a hurry to return to the capital. The energy and tension they had expended during the recent days of travel and combat needed time to recover.

Therefore, the tentative plan is to depart in about two days.

Therefore, the rare moment of leisure made Ye Xiao feel happy.

After shaving, the young man in the mirror did look much neater and more handsome. Ye Xiao nodded in satisfaction, rinsed his face, and then casually ruffled his messy hair before leaving the room.

Everyone in the corridor seemed to be still asleep; you could hear soft snoring through the doors. Only in one room could you faintly hear shouts with rather dramatic intonations.

shouting?

Ye Xiao was stunned. He looked at the room, which was right next to his own. In his memory, it seemed to be Greta and Lucyville's room.

Since Greta had become a cat, giving her a separate room would be a waste of space, and Ye Xiao also refused to let the cat into his room, so he simply arranged for the two demon gods to stay together.

But shouting in the room so early in the morning... it's hard not to make Ye Xiao think things through.

Thinking of the subtle feelings that Archbishop Vanessa had for Eileen, Ye Xiao wondered if these two demon gods also had some... strange relationship?

I'm a little curious, to be honest.

However, eavesdropping on other people's private matters is not exactly gentlemanly behavior.

Ye Xiao hesitated for a long time, stroking his chin, but before he could eavesdrop, the sounds in the room grew louder and louder.
