Chapter 20: Ordinary Wishes

Usually, that would be fine, but now it is an extraordinary time.

The saintess was taken to the branch altar of the sect, but half of the fighting power in the branch altar had already left.

Without the guidance of advanced believers, the Joyful Dolls moved clumsily and were not very useful.

If her warden was still resting behind closed doors at this time, it would be like digging her own grave.

With people’s hearts in turmoil, if there were hidden spies from the Order Sect or other sects in the branch altar, and they kidnapped the saintess they had worked hard to capture, wouldn’t their mission turn them into complete fools?

But if she didn’t heal, the warden’s life would be like a candle flickering in the wind, and she wouldn’t survive for long.

In this situation, the two sisters discussed and came up with a plan.

The younger sister, Lani, would pretend to be warden Reni, while the real Reni would go through the secret passage to the Underground Forbidden Area, two kilometers away, to heal.

During this time, Lani would lead everything in the sect, and if there was an urgent matter, she would go through the secret passage to consult her sister.

After all, it would only be a few days; the grand bishop from the main altar would come with the judges, so they only needed to hold on until then.

The plan is good; it can be said to be the best solution in this situation.

But when it was put into action, unexpected things happened.

Back at the branch altar, Lani, who acted as the warden, reviewed the reports from the past few days and immediately thought of the change in the saintess’s guard after learning about Cass’s betrayal.

She suspected that this matter was related to Cass’s betrayal.

Perhaps Cass sent messages to the Order Sect after he left.

Therefore, Lani called for Tina, wanting to gather information from her, the "victim" who was being pursued by Cass.

It was impossible for her to suspect Tina.

Tina was the woman Lani had brought into the church; they had even offered sacrifices together to the God of Joy, so her loyalty was beyond doubt.

In fact, except for her sister, Tina was the person she trusted the most in the church.

"As a result, you thought you had been exposed, so while she was near you, you launched a surprise attack." Leo looked at Ms. Mucus, feeling both amused and helpless, "Lani really trusts you, there were no guards in the room, and you were already hurt…"

"So, surprisingly, without even putting up a fight, you were defeated."

It really was unexpected, yet made perfect sense.

Originally, he planned to use the connection between Tina and Lani to let Ms. Mucus defeat Lani.

But he didn’t expect that she would manage to do it herself.

And now, the warden is seriously injured, hiding in the forbidden area, with no one knowing except Lani.

This is truly a golden opportunity.

"That’s right~ Hehe, aren’t I impressive~" Lani said with a mischievous smile, licking her tongue and gently placing her toes between Leo’s legs, softly rubbing, "Hurry and compliment me~"

"Compliment you?" Leo huffed in annoyance, grabbing Lani’s delicate foot and tickling her sole, "Well, you already took care of it last night, yet you didn’t contact me all night, and you never replied to me. I think you were just trying to scare me, weren’t you?"

"Hee hee hee, Master, no no no, it tickles, hahaha, not there, hehe~" Lani was tickled so much that she trembled all over, "I just wanted to give you a surprise~"

"Surprise? I think it’s a scare! You naughty girl, take this!"

"Hee hee hee, Master, I was wrong~ Boo hoo hoo~ You, you can punish me~" Lani pouted, her face red and her eyes dreamy, "Um, in the cupboard, there are… there are a whip and ropes…"

"?" Leo paused, surprised, "Why are those things in this room?"

"Well… actually… Lani and Reni are not just sisters… the younger sister also… likes to be teased by her sister…"

"Well, you naughty girl, take this whip!"

……

Midnight.

Leo’s worried heart finally relaxed, and after several days of not sleeping well, he fell into a deep sleep after the joy.

In the dark, the purple gemstone suddenly flashed, and Lani opened her eyes.

She stretched, lifted her long legs that were resting against Leo’s waist, touched the marks on them, and pouted in dissatisfaction, "I told you to tie a little tighter! This little bit of pressure is just not enough to hurt~"

"But, this is the gentle side of you, my master~"

She smiled softly and reached out to touch Leo’s face, but worried about disturbing him, she slowly pulled her hand back.

Propping her head up with her elbow and lying on the bed, she looked at Leo with tender eyes, her voice soft as a whisper:

"Master, I didn’t mean to scare you… I can feel your mind, you’ve been awake for many days, right? You’re so tired; you’ve been too tense lately."

"If this keeps up, you might wear yourself out before we even escape. Master, you need to rest~"

"We will definitely get out, because I am here with you, master~"

Lani gazed gently at Leo, transforming into Tina for a moment, then Ashley, and then back to Lani.

As she absorbed more and more from bad women, her strength steadily grew, and even her mind slowly developed, allowing her to think in more complex ways.

If she had such organs as Mucus.

Remembering the scene from a few days ago when she first opened her eyes and met Leo, Miss Mucus couldn’t help but smile.

Honestly, at that moment, she felt a little confused.

In the midst of flickering emptiness and chaos, she suddenly felt something she couldn’t explain… until later, she learned that it was called consciousness.

Or… perhaps it’s called a soul.

After that, she found herself riding on an unfamiliar creature.

No, that feeling shouldn’t be called confusion; it was… fear?

Fear of the strange and the unknown?

Fortunately, that strange feeling of closeness, and the first gaze after gaining awareness, did not make her afraid for long.

At that moment, she was sure that the person who gave her awareness was worthy of her complete trust.

Why is this? She didn’t know.

Right after that, memories flooded in like a tide.

In just a blink of an eye, she knew her current identity: she was Tina, a believer of Joyful Church, a human female, and the creature beneath her was a male human named Leo.

He was her master.

Hmm…

Now that she thinks about it, the part of herself that was in the void had no awareness, no thoughts, no memories, just a puddle of mucus. Could that part of herself be considered alive?

If it cannot be called alive, does that mean that not only the soul but also life itself is given by the master?

I don’t know; I can’t think of the answer at all.

She didn’t want to think about these deep questions; she just wanted to stay by this person’s side, listen to him talk, watch him smile, and sleep beside him. If possible, she wanted to quietly accompany him as he grew old.

Thinking of this, Miss Mucus turned back into Tina, her legs rubbing together nervously, her face becoming red as she gazed at Leo.

"…"

But this world would not even allow her to fulfill such a simple wish…

Tina sighed, recalling the events of the past few days; her hand transformed into Mucus, and she gently licked her fingers, a look of grievance appearing on her face.

She wouldn’t tell Leo that the reason she contacted him now was not because she was preparing a surprise or scare.

It was simply because the process of ambushing Lani last night was not as easy as she had described.
