Surviving The Fourth Calamity-Chapter 1607 - 185: Where Does Her Confidence Come From?

Chapter 1607: Chapter 185: Where Does Her Confidence Come From?

"What?" Hill was a bit doubtful of his ears.

"Old Dog said, the unattainable beauty is the most beautiful." ’Old Age Striking King’ tugged at his hair, "Many people might like the pure and beautiful Saintess, but the alluring beauty that can drive men crazy is what everyone truly loves.

Especially when this beauty is owned by someone... someone you simply can’t provoke.

Although we can’t make ’Hard Wind’ some sort of overlord, being the commander of the Ten Thousand Knights Corps is enough to make most people back away.

Previously, in the hearts of those people, Cunlü was merely a beautiful female priest among the Undead Tribe, but now, she carries another mark... power.

Men are the most shameless; what’s unattainable is the most beautiful, what’s unreachable is the most holy."

Then she sighed lightly, "Even though it sounds plausible, I suspect it’s because people from Eden all know Cunlü and Hard Wind are husband and wife and quite affectionate.

Rather than let Ellie find a way to turn Cunlü from an unparalleled beauty into a housewife busying around the stove, it’s better to let Cunlü become a real Duchess."

Hill blinked, finding neither option made much sense to him.

But he couldn’t say it.

So he just silently shifted the topic, "Is this for Cunlü’s reputation to spread far and wide in the Desert? But, does it really work?"

"Mm!" ’Old Age Striking King’ nodded cheerfully, "The more miserable Luciella is, the quicker the other side will abandon her. Then they will inevitably promote another girl.

The divinity of Love and Beauty, Old Dog said, has actually started to form, the other side is unwilling to give it up.

After all, Aesces may have suppressed the formation speed of this divinity, but he doesn’t seem to care too much, so there’s a bit of a prototype."

This should be the truth William pried out from Aesces.

Hill wasn’t surprised either, Gaia would touch on Aesces’s divine powers, even if it was ashes, he would be very alert.

But Love and Beauty?

Beauty is indeed a very powerful divinity, but such divinity manipulated by faith power wouldn’t be seen seriously by true Natural Deities.

Shuni of Toril is already the strongest Goddess of Love and Beauty, and has even sheltered Celene!

But do those deities, including Shaer, fear her?

It’s her terrifying social circle!

Moreover, that’s because AO welcomes all, any world, any deity can go to Toril, allowing Shuni to establish such a social circle.

In a closed world like Aesces’s, what threat does Love and Beauty hold?

His indifference is understandable... of course, the anger of being exploited due to excessive carelessness can be solved by oneself!

No one will pity him.

After all, all this time, Aesces has truly... been utterly unaware.

It’s understandable, but he must accept being laughed at by others.

The smile on Hill’s lips was so radiant even ’Old Age Striking King’ couldn’t resist grabbing a tablet to snap a few shots.

Hill’s action of flying up into the sky was momentarily delayed.

He shut his smile, suppressing the urge to look down, and flew straight up.

However, Hill still heard a bit of the conversation.

"Old Age, why did you come down so late?" an undead asked her, "Old Dog thought you were of no use!"

"Hey, hey~ check this out!" ’Old Age Striking King’s voice was full of excitement, "Look, our Leizhenzi Little Bear! How gorgeous!

Tsk, tsk, if we could have wings like those, I’d buy them no matter the cost!"

"Isn’t that a spell?" someone asked in confusion, "Doesn’t Thunder Element Mage know it?"

"Is that what they call wings? You’re comparing those pigeon-like wings to Hill’s?" ’Old Age Striking King’s voice instantly magnified, "Can that be compared? Can it?

Also, the color difference! Cyan feathers woven by wind, surrounded by flash of lightning and roar of thunder, even larger than Seraph’s huge wings!

Their pigeon wings, not only dirt-yellow, but just a few beams of light.

Tsk, tsk, those who know it’s thunder wings, those who don’t might think the feathers got scorched and won’t grow back!"

"Alright... you win." That person wisely chose to remain silent.

"Hmph~ Besides, do they have this face? When speaking, imagine who the model I have is!"

Hill thought it better to silently return to the Magic Tower.

Having stayed in Toril a long time, he almost forgot ’Old Age Striking King’ was the one who once pointed at him and yelled ’cute boy hugging a cat’.

It seems after leaving Edna, this female priest found her reckless old self again... While in Toril, she may have hit quite a few people and made many question life, but she actually was a bit restrained there.

Hill was actually a bit doubtful about whether it was necessary for ’Snow Cloud Peak’ to do all this.

But he quickly discovered from various anomalies that the other party indeed hit a sore spot of the suspected behind-the-scenes person of ’Gaia’.

Ellie from Basia City reappeared outside Cain Valley after disappearing for a while.

Moreover, she even attempted to enter the valley in the name of Sister Lind.

Honestly, when she did such a thing, Lind, who was drinking tea and enjoying the scenery in his castle, almost choked himself to death.

Then he rushed directly to the Command Tower of the Undead Tribe with a very peculiar expression, clinging to the glass window, staring intently at Ellie outside, who was floating mid-air, wearing a white silk dress that was both seductive and pure... a halter deep V-neck, with a slit up to the hip...

"Ah... she’s really not Ellie anymore." His voice carried very complex emotions... perhaps even a little bit of sorrow.

Even though he really disliked this sister, it seemed he couldn’t accept the complete disappearance of Ellie.

"Don’t worry, her soul is still there," ’Snow Cloud Peak’ said cheerfully behind him, "Her luck is as good as ever, the contract and wager she made with the other side are ones that can never be fulfilled.

So..."

Lind turned around suddenly to look at him, "I’ve been honestly staying at home drinking tea recently!"

"Ah..." ’Snow Cloud Peak’ scratched his head, "I’ve gotten very accustomed to speaking bluntly, no matter who I’m talking to, hehe~

Bear with it~

After all, I’m a bit annoyed, and the commotion you caused charging up here was too much."

"I’ll remember to go to the city wall next time," Lind said, swallowing his anger.

"Ah! Never mind then." ’Snow Cloud Peak’ said with a smiling face, "Getting mocked by me for a couple of lines is better than losing your life."

"What do you mean?" Lind reacted sensitively, "Ellie, she... wants to kill me?"

"Ellie, I mean your sister, though she asked the Evil God for a guarantee of your Stelter family’s life and safety," ’Snow Cloud Peak’ laughed, "But, how to put it, contracts are sometimes made to be broken, it’s just a matter of whether it’s worth it or not.

With contracts that wager the soul, if one party slightly breaches it and the other party’s reaction isn’t particularly strong, it might only be a bit painful without causing the worst result.

For example, do you think your sister would fight desperately because the other party accidentally, unintentionally put you to death?"

Lind pursed his lips, shook his head lightly, and answered honestly, "No."

"So, the other party plans to kill you and then use some member of the Stelter family’s collateral to inherit your title," ’Snow Cloud Peak’ laughed, "Did you really think she was just seeing if she could enter the valley to meet Hill?

Although this time she’s dressed very much in the style of Cunlü, but... how to say, I think even that person wouldn’t be so foolish."

"Hmm?" Lind was a bit puzzled, "But, wasn’t I able to become the lord of Cain Valley because of you guys?

If you don’t agree, even if I hand over the title to my brother’s descendants in a will, it won’t be possible, right?"

’Snow Cloud Peak’ looked a bit surprised at this young master... it seems he had indeed prepared for the worst when he came over with the Undead Tribe!

He had even prepared the will.

And to prevent anyone else from getting it cheaply... Such an exclusive will means that if Ditte has no descendants, the title will return directly to the Royal Family, and no other Stelter family members can obtain it.

Young Master Lind is indeed willing, and his sense of revenge is truly strong.

"So... how could she have this confidence?" ’Snow Cloud Peak’ gently pushed the green leaves of a potted flower on the coffee table with his hand.

Lind curiously observed for a moment, it seemed like a Jasmine Flower?

Though the flowers were a bit large, the scent was indeed jasmine.

But the bloom was very lush... though it wasn’t that Windbell Grass anymore.

However, there was no need to hire such strong bodyguards on his own territory.

He appeared indifferent, yet his words were truly surprising: "Luciella, although a bit younger than me, showed... well, a peculiar maturity of a young girl very early on?

I visited the capital twice.

At that time, my mother was unwell, so she asked her teacher to take us to visit Great Sage Ismael, hoping to buy some special potions.

Given our family’s status, even with introductions, we could only attend royal banquets at the Royal Palace.

Back then, I wasn’t of communication age, so I was placed in a children’s exclusive lounge to wait."

A hint of a sardonic smile appeared on his lips, "But... someone like me, would never be well-behaved.

Therefore, when I saw a certain future Danboro Pearl sneaking away, I followed.

She was there, on Great Sage Ismael’s path, lightly smelling the roses."

"Ismael? He’s... not usually only fond of older women... um, ahem, you know what I mean."

"Great Sage did nothing, but both of his son’s eyes went straight," Lind hesitated, "However, I must declare one thing first, I cannot guarantee that neither of the parties noticed my presence."
