Chapter 108: The Little Vixen and the Female Spy Start a Fight

“You mean, a deputy section chief from the Judgment Bureau just helped you kill this heretic?”

“That’s right, Your Majesty. I couldn’t have dealt with him on my own.”

Hall answered very calmly.

Sophia frowned, and after a moment of thought, she also felt…

That was indeed the case.

Anyone in the Judgment Bureau who could reach the position of deputy section chief was a ruthless character.

And their identities were usually mysterious.

After killing a heretic, they would not linger at the scene to leak information, but would have their subordinates collect the body and deal with the scene.

And in the past few days, through her contact with the high-level officials of Saint Louis, Sophia also knew that Hall was a highly regarded individual by a considerable number of people.

Even if the other party didn’t say it, whenever she mentioned Hall, those people seemed to deliberately avoid the topic and didn’t want to talk much with her.

But as the Empress of Cateline, they probably didn’t have the nerve to directly tell her not to get close to Hall.

In general, it was a controllable range.

That’s how Sophia felt.

There were also rumors that Hall was a strong contender for the future captain of the Black Knights.

If Hall took that position, he would really be at odds with her.

After all, the Cateline intelligence department’s interpretation of the Black Knights was very clear.

They believed that the organization was “more of a deterrent to the various countries of the continent and the Demon Lords than a vanguard for invading the Xia Kingdom.”

She didn’t want Hall to be the captain of the Black Knights, but in the end, she still chose to respect Hall’s will.

Now that he had lost his memory, what choices would he make, and how would he handle his relationship with the Salvation Church?

Sophia didn’t know.

Mandosha Flower seemed very zen.

As if she wasn’t worried at all that Hall would run off with the Holy Church.

“Alright, Hall. As for the details like the real name and appearance of the deputy section chief of the Judgment Bureau, it’s not for this lonely one, the Empress of Cateline, to ask. This body will be left here for the people from the Judgment Bureau to deal with. It seems to be a vampire, right? The one who attacked the Saintess Candidate of the Bal Empire?”

“That’s right, Your Majesty. But he is not a pure-blood vampire.”

“This lonely one knows. This guy has a disgusting aura… Pure-blood vampires are much nobler than him. But his strength is also above some pure-blood vampires. It’s very strange. Normally, vampires are a race of bloodlines…”

Hall could actually answer Sophia’s question.

In the game’s plot, besides Cateline, the various countries of the West had tried to research the power of the vampires.

And it did indeed produce this kind of half-human, half-vampire creature.

When players challenged dungeons, the ones they encountered were basically this kind of mindless monster.

The ones with intelligence could only be encountered in the later stages of the game’s plot.

Like the one today, although his intelligence was average, his strength was indeed extraordinary, at a mid-game level.

But he couldn’t say it outright, only saying, “Your Majesty, be careful. I suspect this person is not the creation of the vampire empress.”

“Of course. This lonely one knows the vampire empress. Although she is cunning, she is proud by nature and would not create this kind of thing that insults pure-blood vampires.”

The eastern border of the Kingdom of Cateline bordered the western demon domain, so there had been many minor frictions between the two sides for a thousand years.

Although the empresses of Cateline had changed again and again, the vampire empress was a genuine old monster who had lived since the Demon God era.

There wasn’t much recorded about her each time, but after so many years, she was relatively well-understood.

“Then this lonely one will have Tarasha record the data first, and we’ll talk again when the people from the Judgment Bureau arrive.”

Speak of the devil.

Following behind Sophia were Tarasha, Himan, and Ye Wangxue, who had all arrived here.

“Hall, why are you here too?”

Himan was very surprised.

“My mission tonight is to patrol Saint Louis and guard against vampire harassment. The viscount’s document said so. Since it has already happened, and a Saintess Candidate has been injured, you all were bound to find out. I didn’t dare to hide it.”

Hall gave a brief summary.

“A Saintess Candidate was injured?”

Himan frowned, looking at the quasi-vampire corpse.

The aura made her feel a little disgusted.

“That’s right, it’s the Saintess Candidate of the Bal Empire. This lonely one has also received the news.”

Sophia confirmed Hall’s words.

“Then this assassin, was he killed by Your Majesty and Hall together? Just now, you were outside the Cateline embassy, chasing this assassin, Hall?”

Himan thought of Marquis Chekov’s words.

Someone was chasing the assassin.

Now that Sophia and Hall were together, it inevitably made her connect the dots.

But this was too terrifying.

Himan was sure that she could not have blocked the arrow that the assassin had shot at the Cateline embassy before he died.

And Hall had been able to chase him all the way here alone before Sophia arrived.

“That’s not it. It was a deputy section chief from the Judgment Bureau who killed him with me. I was just a bystander, responsible for watching the battle and waiting for the specialists from the Judgment Bureau to come and collect the body.”

Hall gave another simple explanation.

“Oh, that’s not bad either, Hall.”

Himan’s childhood ambition was to become at least a deputy section chief of the Judgment Bureau in the future.

However, because the identities of the section chiefs and deputy section chiefs of the Judgment Bureau were usually too secretive, and the Judgment Bureau only had one to six sections and a special section, a total of fourteen section chiefs and deputy section chiefs.

To this day, she had only met two.

Their characteristics were all very strong.

They were the type of characters who, if they didn’t reveal their killing intent, were fine, but once they did, they would surely kill.

“My dear, you’ve really had enough~”

Ye Wangxue didn’t believe Hall’s nonsense.

She could faintly feel that Hall’s current state was very similar to when he had defeated her that day.

This guy was hiding it very well.

‘As expected of her fiancé. Could it be that her father, the Emperor, had known all along and that’s why he had signed this marriage contract?’

She was shocked in her heart.

Actually, if you compared the timeline, you would find it very strange.

The time her father, the Emperor, had arranged the marriage for her was three years ago.

And according to the intelligence she had gathered after arriving in Saint Louis.

It was almost shortly after Hall was exposed for having many girls and his reputation plummeted that her father, the Emperor, had secretly signed this marriage contract.

At first, she thought her father, the Emperor, had thought that Hall Faxtius, who was born into the new noble class of the royal family, and among the old great nobles, only the Russell family and the Faxtius family were close.

He was a family heir who was relatively easy to control.

But now, after carefully recalling the logic, it shouldn’t be the case, right?

Before his reputation collapsed, Hall had always been an outstanding scion in Saint Louis, and his sisters were also very outstanding.

If he could really participate in the future power struggle of the Faxtius family.

Hall’s older sister, who had been chosen by the cardinals, would definitely not be a pushover.

Her father, the Emperor, should have waited until Hall’s reputation had hit rock bottom before considering her marriage to Hall.

Clearly, that was not the case.

Based on the time she had learned of the marriage contract.

The time her father, the Emperor, had intended for her to marry Hall should have been decided just as Hall’s reputation was collapsing, or even before.

Could it be that her father, the Emperor, had really just wanted to find a good husband for her, and that’s why he had her marry Hall?

Ye Wangxue thought for a long time and for the first time faintly came to this conclusion, which had seemed extremely ridiculous to her in the past.

But since she had come to this conclusion, she had to fight for Hall.

But before she could speak.

She heard him say.

“I still have something to do. You guys stay here and watch this corpse until the specialists from the Judgment Bureau arrive. I have to go first.”

To be on the safe side, Hall still decided to leave, and wait until the Demon God’s aura around him had completely dissipated.

And, he still had someone he hadn’t met yet.

“Hall, where are you going?”

“Are you going to follow me?”

“Of course I’m going to follow you! What if you go to see another girl? I’m your fiancée, and I have an obligation to supervise you.”

When Hall left, Ye Wangxue also followed.

After thinking for a long time just now, a woman’s intuition told her that Hall was going to find another woman.

And it was very likely Leticia.

“I’m going to find Leticia.”

Seeing Hall, who was walking in front, throw out such a direct ball, Ye Wangxue was directly stunned in the snowy forest.

Himan and Sophia, who had followed after Sophia had instructed Tarasha to deal with the body, also came up.

But when they found Ye Wangxue stunned, they hadn’t even gotten close.

They heard Ye Wangxue loudly questioning Hall, “You’re going to find Leticia… you’re going to leave me behind and spend New Year’s Eve with her?”

It was a bit uncomfortable.

Ye Wangxue felt a bad taste in her mouth.

Why was Hall going to Leticia now?

Couldn’t he stay and accompany her after he had finished his business?

Besides, even if Hall was a philanderer, with her, Himan, and Cateline, the three of them, were they not a match for one Leticia?

A nameless fire began to burn in her heart.

Himan was also stunned when she heard this, thinking to herself, ‘Hall is leaving in a hurry to find Leticia?’

She remembered that she had also invited Hall before.

Even if Hall didn’t agree, he should have told her that Leticia had invited him.

And this guy Hall, he had just finished dealing with the trouble with the deputy section chief of the Judgment Bureau.

He should have immediately gone back to write a report and submit it.

Hall, who had made such a contribution, would be able to completely clear his suspicions.

But he actually…

Didn’t he understand?

He and Leticia were not a good match at all.

Before, when Hall had no ability, it was not suitable.

Now that Hall was being watched by the cardinals, it was also not suitable.

Because the Child family, which already controlled a large amount of money, could not be allowed to get involved in too much military power.

After all, if Hall inherited his father’s title and military rank, he would have one-sixth of the Papal State’s military power, and with the full financial support of the Child family, this level of marriage, and Leticia being so in love.

To be honest, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to establish his own kingdom.

What’s more, if it really came to that, what choice would her family have…

Himan felt that although this idea was very ridiculous, but…

If one day it really was like that…

She would probably…

Should she stand on Hall’s side?

Forget it, forget it, it was too ridiculous.

With Hall like this, how could he possibly establish a kingdom?

But she still asked.

“Hall, are you going to find Leticia?”

“Mm, are you guys coming with me?”

At this moment, Hall suddenly turned his head.

He thought for a moment and decided to take Himan and Ye Wangxue with him.

Although Ye Wangxue’s affection for him was still questionable, it might be purely for the sake of winning or self-esteem.

But to go and see Leticia on New Year’s Eve in front of Ye Wangxue.

It could only be said that no one who wanted to die could live.

Taking Himan with him was to balance the situation at that time, so that it wouldn’t be like he was taking Ye Wangxue to find Leticia to decide who was better.

However, Sophia said she was bored and wanted to come and see.

Hall also felt that the more, the merrier.

Spending New Year’s Eve alone with Leticia was very dangerous.

Spending New Year’s Eve alone with Ye Wangxue was also very dangerous.

Spending New Year’s Eve with the two of them was also dangerous.

But spending New Year’s Eve with five people was relatively safe.

“My lady, he seems to be here.”

The time was eleven-fifty.

It was just around the corner from the New Year.

Leticia, who had been waiting for a long time, heard Moyel’s voice, and her cute little face, which had been tinged with disappointment, suddenly showed an excited expression.

She looked at the big road outside the window, anticipating the appearance of that figure.

But soon, Leticia couldn’t wait any longer.

She looked at the wall clock on the wall and thought to herself that if Hall wasn’t running, there might not be enough time.

She would go and meet him.

So Leticia lifted her skirt and turned to run out of the guest room.

“Moyel, let’s go, let’s go see him! There’s not much time left.”

“Sigh… wait, my lady, wait…”

Moyel wanted to stop Leticia because she had not only seen Hall, but also Ye Wangxue, Himan, and the Empress of Cateline beside him.

Hall had not come alone.

The young duke was not planning to spend New Year’s Eve with her lady in a two-person trip.

But a team of five.

Unfortunately, Moyel couldn’t say the situation out loud in the end.

She also didn’t want to spoil Leticia’s mood.

She was afraid that if Leticia learned the actual situation, she would be unable to accept it and choose to avoid Hall tonight.

If it were before, Moyel would definitely have done this, letting her lady not see Hall tonight.

But now, she couldn’t.

Doing so would only bring her lady greater pain.

Her lady had had a crush on Hall for several years and had recently been making a strong offensive.

Although Leticia was weak, she was not a girl who gave up easily.

Moyel understood, so tonight might be a bit sad, but there was no need to escape.

On the road covered with a thin layer of snow outside the castle in the center of Cateline Park, District Twelve.

Leticia was running with her skirt lifted.

She wanted to see Hall.

The night wind was very cold, and even though she was wearing fleece-lined white pantyhose, it was still very cold.

But the rose-colored girl’s chest was very hot.

For several years, she had fantasized about spending this night with Hall, and had even had a strange dream about it last year.

In her dream, she was standing by the window, her small face looking out, her two small hands holding onto the mahogany railing on the windowsill to support her body.

Hall was behind her.

At that time, her skirt would be lifted, and just like that, maintaining this posture, the two of them would do things that could be called top secrets.

When she woke up the next day, Leticia’s face was as red as an apple, and her body was as soft as a cooked shrimp and had that color.

As for the bedsheet, it would naturally no longer be clean.

Probably, besides the recent practice of learning related knowledge, it was the most intense time in several years.

Leticia really had a sense of ceremony about this day.

So she ran out to see Hall.

Of course…

Because Moyel was by her side, she couldn’t replicate the scene from her dream.

But, but she could still do some things for him that were a bit excessive on a normal day.

She was uneasy.

Thinking of what she was about to do, Leticia’s young girl’s heart was extremely uneasy.

It felt as if it could jump out of her slightly raised cute little buns in the next moment.

But soon.

When she saw the figure of the young man she had been thinking of for a long time.

Leticia froze.

Her heart also seemed to be frozen.

She couldn’t believe that behind him were Himan, the Empress of Cateline, and the one she regarded as her biggest rival, Ye Wangxue.

So in the winter night, her little legs under her white pantyhose trembled slightly, and she didn’t know what to feel anymore.

“Miss Leticia, I seem to have made it.”

He just said so.

Twelve o’clock.

The people of the Western Continent welcomed the beginning of the year 1035 of the Holy Light Era.

And the bell tower next to the Saint Michael’s Cathedral in the first district of Saint Louis was already ringing at this moment.

The sound could be heard in any corner of Saint Louis.

That ancient, heavy sound, as if it were a blessing or the Lord’s gospel.

The whole of Saint Louis was no longer quiet.

This most glorious city on the Western Continent was absolutely a city that never sleeps tonight.

The people who came to this city had no reason to sleep at this time of day.

The sounds of revelry in the various districts were deafening, even drowning out the sound of the holy bell tower.

But, in District Twelve, in Childland, which was booked by the young lady of the Child family tonight.

This place, which should have been the most lively in previous years, was as silent as death.

When Hall said that greeting, Leticia just nodded and did not answer immediately.

Similarly, seeing that Leticia didn’t speak, Hall also didn’t speak.

Ye Wangxue was observing Leticia’s expression, and Himan and Sophia had no reason to speak either.

Actually, Sophia’s emotional intelligence was also quite high.

She saw Leticia run over excitedly, but then froze in place.

She knew that this girl was most likely disappointed.

‘Tsk, tsk, tsk, Hall, this big scumbag. My sister must have been heartbroken by him too!’

‘So, could it be that he was deliberately hiding his strength, tricking her into thinking that only by kissing him could she defeat Rhys? Yes…’

Sophia’s face turned red.

She was in no mood to care about Leticia anymore.

She covered her small face and shook her head in place.

Because if that was the case, why would she be so grateful to Hall?

Hall’s scheming was so deep, what a terrible man!

Just like that Mandosha Flower who always spoke in riddles, gave half the information, and whose true goal could never be guessed.

No wonder the two of them were such good friends, they were of the same ilk!

But…

He was so serious at that time.

Sophia thought of Hall’s face before he kissed her, it was incredibly sincere.

She considered herself an empress and was good at reading people.

At that time, she had chosen to believe Hall.

Now, because of various doubts, she was doubting Hall again.

Wouldn’t that be equivalent to denying her past self?

No, no.

Sophia was about to go crazy on the side.

She couldn’t figure out what was going on.

…

Himan was currently paying attention to Leticia and Hall’s state.

She hadn’t noticed Sophia’s abnormality yet.

After a long time.

The five people who were facing each other in the snow finally had Leticia speak slowly.

“Seventh Princess, I didn’t expect to see you tonight.”

“I also didn’t expect to see Duchess Leticia tonight.”

Ye Wangxue was not vague.

Hall had brought her to attend Leticia’s appointment, which meant she had the upper hand.

So she looked at Leticia, who had the expression of a small beast, and her lethality began to be maxed out, “What, Duchess Leticia? Hall brought me to your appointment. Are you finding it hard to accept?”

Leticia was hit where it hurt, and her body trembled slightly.

But she quickly fought back.

“Seventh Princess, what about you? Did Hall bring you here alone?”

She raised her voice, with a hint of provocation in her tone.

If they were going to fight, then they would fight.

Since the trip to the Demon God’s Labyrinth, the two young ladies had not argued for nearly half a month.

The dissatisfaction they had accumulated for each other in their hearts now naturally had to be vented.

“Oh, then did Hall come to see you alone?”

Ye Wangxue felt uncomfortable.

They were both hurting each other.

But she would not admit defeat.

Her aggressiveness towards Leticia was very, very strong.

It was this woman who had taken her fiancé at that time.

Making her occasionally still hear the voices of those who had laughed at her for Hall not attending the engagement ceremony.

And today, Leticia still wanted to invite Hall for the New Year.

If it weren’t for the fact that this incident had just happened, that the quasi-vampire had attacked the Cateline embassy, would Leticia’s plan have really succeeded?

Ye Wangxue felt her head was green.

She definitely couldn’t let Leticia off the hook this time.

How dare she be so arrogant in front of her, the main wife!

“Both of you, say a few less words. I personally think that since it’s the New Year, everyone is a friend. It’s said that celebrating the New Year together has more of a festive atmosphere. In the new year, let’s put aside past grievances. Didn’t we cooperate well during the Demon God’s Labyrinth?”

Hall had originally planned to persuade the two ancestors.

Mainly because he felt that if he remained silent, with Leticia and Ye Wangxue’s aggressiveness today, the situation might get out of control.

After all, Leticia’s body was very weak, and she was wearing rather thin clothes today.

Her divinity was also quite high.

It would be bad if she got sick from the cold today.

“Hall, you don’t need to speak up for this Eastern female spy.”

“Hall, you don’t talk! Let me see how I teach this little vixen a lesson!”

Leticia and Ye Wangxue both told Hall to get out of the way.

They both took a step forward.

Leticia was alluding to the time in the underground street.

Ye Wangxue was still holding onto the fact that she was unmarried.

And Ye Wangxue didn’t like Hall trying to mediate.

In her ears, Hall’s words still sounded like, “For the harmony of my harem, just put up with it.”

Even if this guy were to start a harem, he had to figure out who was the main wife, right?

Hmph, in front of Ye Wangxue, they were all younger sisters.

If Leticia was willing to bring her Child family and submit.

Then Ye Wangxue, out of consideration for her interests, wouldn’t mind letting this little vixen be a concubine.

Heh, what a pity.

This younger sister couldn’t see the situation clearly.

Did she really think she could outplay her?

Ye Wangxue looked directly at Leticia, and Leticia also looked directly at her.

“Who did you say was a female spy?”

“And who did you say was a little vixen?”

The atmosphere between the two of them was seen by Himan on the side.

Himan was very surprised.

This was the most serious argument between Leticia and Ye Wangx-ue.

They were probably really jealous.

Himan couldn’t quite understand and didn’t know what to say.

Did Ye Wangxue really like Hall?

Was she not planning to break off the engagement?

The dazed Himan thought of Sophia on the side.

But she found that Her Majesty of Cateline was staring at her head in a daze.

“What’s wrong, Your Majesty of Cateline? Is something on your mind?”

Sophia, who was in self-doubt, then looked at Himan.

And asked a question that directly shocked Himan’s soul.

“Miss Himan, do you think that denying one’s past view of a person is denying oneself?”

This question.

Himan was also completely stunned.

She looked at the silent Hall on the side, and in her brain.

A thousand memories.
