Chapter 17: Warden’s Deputy
Midnight, prison.
Leo shared a moment of tenderness with Tina and Ashley, and then entered a wise time.
He looked at the two extra free attribute points he had gained, scratched his nose, and added one point to Spiritual Vision and the other point to Physical Strength.
Thus, his attributes changed to:
[Strength: 2]
[Agility: 3]
[Physical Strength: 7]
[Charisma: 7]
[Intelligence: 6]
[**Spiritual Vision: 9**]
Just by looking at the panel, he can see how much stronger he is than when he first came to this world.
But the way he got stronger…
Sigh, I don’t know how many times I will need to "unite" in one night in the future…
Back then, I didn’t even have a girlfriend, and now I have to deliver my share every day.
Although I feel great after each union, the process is surely tiring…
This is truly a case of those who have too little suffering and those who have too much suffering!
"Smack!" Leo slapped Ashley’s soft bottom and said with annoyance, "Stop sleeping! You’ve eaten enough; it’s time to get up and work."
"Ah~" Sleepy-eyed Ashley yawned and slowly sat up from the bed, wiping her glasses, "Master~ Is it morning already?"
Even in the moments right after waking up, the woman still had a blank expression on her face.
"What are you thinking about? We need to plan how to deal with the warden before morning. Tell me what you know."
"Information…" Ashley adjusted her glasses and thought hard for a moment, then shook her head, "Neither Ashley nor Tina knows much about the warden; they just know she is a mid-level believer, much stronger than themselves."
"Hmm, we don’t know her attributes, her abilities, or what weapons she might use… It’s impossible to come up with a strategy like this." Leo said, a little frustrated, rubbing his forehead.
It seems we at least need to see the warden once, gather information with True Vision Eye, before making a move.
Even though the situation is very urgent, some things cannot be rushed.
Everything must be approached with caution.
"By the way, master," Ashley suddenly interrupted Leo’s thoughts, "Even though I don’t know anything about the warden, her aide does."
"Aide?"
"Yes, the warden’s assistant, like me, is a low-level believer, but she stays by the warden’s side all day, so she must know her secrets." Ashley adjusted her glasses. "And the most important thing is that Assistant Lani is the warden’s twin sister. The warden would never expect her to betray her!"
Wow, taking both sisters at once, huh…
Miss Mucus has something special.
Leo shook his head and asked, "How do your skills compare to her assistant, no, her sister Lani?"
"Hehe, don’t worry, Master~" Ashley said confidently. "Tina and Lani have a very good relationship and know her abilities well. Besides, even if there is a difference, they are all low-level believers, so we have a good chance."
"Hmm, if that’s the case, let’s start by taking down her sister Lani," Leo nodded, confirming the plan of action.
Indeed, instead of directly dealing with the warden, a mid-level believer, it is safer to first devour her closest sister and then take our time with the warden.
We can use the relationship between Tina and Lani to handle this matter.
Just as the two were preparing to discuss the details of their next move, they heard a series of footsteps outside the prison.
Ashley quickly changed into Tina’s appearance and sat up in bed.
Luckily, she could create her clothes directly, so there was no risk of being exposed.
"Hey, Tina, the warden is back and wants to see you! Hurry up!" A new believer, who had just argued earlier in the day, strutted to the prison door, twisting his beard. "Don’t say I didn’t warn you, this is a crucial time. If you miss something important because you got distracted by fun, the warden will surely be angry with you!"
"Look at you, so pleased with yourself…" Tina muttered softly, coldly pushed open the cell door, and walked towards the warden’s room without even glancing at the believer.
The believer stared at Tina’s back, gritting his teeth with resentment, then looked at Leo and sneered twice, "Oh, you really have it good, don’t you? Someone is protecting you."
"Just don’t know how long that b*tch Tina can protect you, hahaha."
Leo quickly put on a look of terror.
"Hmph." The believer was pleased with Leo’s frightened expression, let out a snort, and left with his hands behind his back.
Once the believer’s figure disappeared at the end of the corridor, Leo returned to his usual calm self.
He rubbed his chin and showed a bitter smile.
After only a few days here, his acting skills had improved greatly. If he needed to be scared, he could be scared; if he needed to flatter, he could flatter. Maybe he could even be chosen for the teaching material at the film school.
Also, Miss Mucus is showing more personality now. I don’t know if it’s because she has been with me for a long time, or if it’s because she has absorbed the traits of two people.
Never mind, I won’t think about it anymore.
He looked around to make sure no one was there, then took out the Order Sect’s emblem and began to practice the "Order Prayer."
He must use every minute to grow stronger and increase his chances of winning.
……
The next day.
Since the warden called the believers to a meeting last night, the atmosphere within the sect was very different from usual.
The once dark prison was surprisingly bright, lit up with magic lights everywhere.
The joyful sacrifice that usually happened every day was canceled, and all the human sacrifice offerings stayed quietly in their cells.
Outside the corridor, every twenty minutes, a group of believers changed shifts to patrol.
At the end of the corridor, the door leading to the upper levels had three heavy chains on it, and four believers always stood nearby.
Not to mention around the saintess prison, the Joyful Doll from the Judgment Team had not left its cell since arriving, doing everything inside.
Feeling the tense atmosphere like a storm was coming, Leo was restless.
He was more certain than ever that his theory was correct.
The Joyful Church had no intention of sending the saintess back to the main temple; instead, they planned to send someone here to complete the ritual.
After that, they might even abandon this stronghold.
Then these human sacrifices will naturally lose their lives.
I just don’t know when those important people will arrive, and if there’s still time…
Even though there is some tension, it is not the main reason for Leo’s unease.
He feels restless mainly because the connection with Miss Mucus has been broken.
Indeed, less than half an hour after Miss Mucus was called to see the warden last night, their connection was as if it had been severed completely.
No matter how he calls for Miss Mucus, he receives no response.
This has never happened before…
This makes him very tormented, as if his heart is suspended in the air, empty and without a place.
Miss Mucus is not only a crucial ally for him but also the only person he can trust in this strange world…
Just then, footsteps sounded outside the prison, and soon after, a female believer slowly appeared in front of Leo.
The believer’s face wore a strong expression of sarcasm…
