Chapter 198 Lanqi said that good people will be rewarded
"You, what do you want me to do?"
Phoenix asked with a trembling voice, staring at Lanci.
Since there is still a chance, he will try his best even for his sister Phyllis.
"I have to tell you first. You have colluded with the Resurrection Church, attempted murder, and tried to cause a large-scale accident. You will inevitably spend the rest of your life in prison. However, if you actively plead guilty and behave well, you can make up for your crime and strive for a reduction in sentence... When you are in prison, just ask me and I will personally help you with the lawsuit."
Lanci clearly told Phoenix the shortest sentence he could get. If he committed a crime, he would go to jail. It had nothing to do with whether he was willing to join Lanci.
"As for your sister, if she is truly innocent, after a strict examination by the Church of the Goddess of Fate, she can seek refuge with High Priest Loren. I will have her transfer to Ikerite College, so you don't have to worry about anything. Of course, your sister will also receive extra attention and protection from Dean Loren at that time."
“…”
Phoenix listened to Lanqi's words, pursed his lips tightly and clenched his fists.
The plan proposed by Lanqi is undoubtedly the best situation for them at the moment.
Even compared to the scenarios previously described by the poet of great love, Phoenix couldn't think of how Lanci could be more merciful.
Anyone with normal skills would know which one to choose between High Priest Loren and Bishop of Destruction Ivanos.
But Phoenix was worried.
After being arrested and thrown into prison as a serious criminal.
My sister will be criticized in Ikrit Academy and live a very unhappy life.
When he thought of this, he could only blame himself deeply.
"The above is all official business. As long as you don't lie to Dean Loren and sincerely admit your mistakes and repent, these things will happen."
Lanqi hadn't finished speaking yet and was still talking to Phoenix.
Ivanos actually has a rather evil mind.
Lanqi knew that if this attack plan was really successful, Phoenix's sister would most likely be protected by the kind-hearted Loren after undergoing a series of inspections in King Hutton's capital.
However, having a brother who is a cultist, murderer, and terrorist, and who also killed students of the Sages' Academy and innocent civilians, will brand and label Phyllis for life, making her lonely and helpless in Ikerit, unable to hold her head up and live a life isolated from happiness, suffering only from people's malice and accusations.
Perhaps this was one of the little endings Ivanos had hoped for.
Lanqi disagrees, he hopes for a happy ending.
So he would not let Ivanos get what he wanted.
"Phoenix, please rest assured. No matter what crime you have committed, I promise you that your sister will not be treated unfairly in Ikrit Academy. Our school will never allow any bullying of classmates to happen."
Lanqi said in a serious voice.
“……!!”
When Phoenix heard Lanqi's words, he raised his head in surprise, and there seemed to be a glimmer of light in his eyes.
Originally, this kind of assurance was just empty talk from a leader, and even if it was made by Loren, Phoenix could not let go of his worries about his sister.
After all, no one can guarantee that other students will not bully his sister in private. Some discrimination that comes from the bottom of the heart and is accompanied by malice cannot be erased.
But if I get a promise from the person in front of me...
That is indeed extremely trustworthy.
Because no irrational student would do anything that Lanqi would feel was "incorrect", "unfriendly", or "needs to be corrected".
Although his love is chaotic and twisted, it embraces everything.
He can provide shelter even to those aliens who are rejected by the human group and need to be eliminated.
Treat them all equally.
At this moment in Phoenix's eyes, the warm light made Lanqi's figure shine, as if he was standing on the sacred other side, extending an olive branch to him.
Phoenix couldn't describe what a blessing this was.
He had dreamed of completely severing ties with the Resurrection Church in his and his sister's lives.
Let my sister live a life without danger.
But he didn't dare to think about it, not even to dream about it, hoping that such a day would come. He gradually became numb and was about to give up the thought.
He thought that he would never get something, but now the opportunity was right in front of him.
Phoenix finally understood what was causing the burning heat in his chest.
It was like a smoldering fire that suddenly turned red hot.
To give an example, it is like one's faith is ignited, one is able to give up everything, without having to worry about anything, and just sleep peacefully, without any anxiety or fear, without having to tremble and cry in the darkness, nor being frightened by nightmares of losing everything.
Even if he had to truly entrust his life to this protector, he would be convinced.
"Mr. Lanci, I..."
Phoenix spoke with a trembling voice.
In a burst of joy that almost tore his chest apart, he shouted out his inner voice, "I serve you!"
"very good."
Lanqi nodded with satisfaction.
He recruited another excellent preparatory student.
As a principal, he has the responsibility and obligation to save more young men and women who have gone astray.
During this trip to the Resurrection Church in the northern continent, he was determined to recruit more first-term students.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
He couldn't allow this evil church to destroy more young people!
Justice is on his side! "Then don't tell anyone about our conversation, including Loren. Do you understand?"
"Of course, I only met you once, and you just caught me."
Phoenix nodded.
“…”
Hyperion, who was beside Lanqi, glanced at Lanqi secretly.
She suspected that Lanqi's trip to the northern continent had more targets...
…
A few hours later, the rain had almost stopped, but the sky was still gray and there was no sunset glow to be seen.
Talia's log cabin loft looks especially beautiful on rainy days.
The dripping sound of rain complements the tranquility of the wooden attic. Each drop of rain brings a leisurely rhythm to this space. You can feel the rhythm of the rain and the breath of nature. The glass skylight on the ceiling made of wooden boards and inclined beams is moistened by the rain, becoming a huge transparent canvas. Tiny raindrops gently tap on the glass. They gather, flow, and disperse, reflecting the night sky, forming an ever-changing watercolor painting.
The delicate wood grain on the wall appears even deeper under such lighting, and the warm-toned decorations and furniture, accompanied by the sound of rain, seem to wrap one's soul in a warm blanket.
At this moment, the attic of the wooden house seems to be a small world isolated from the outside world. There is only the sound of raindrops hitting the skylight, making people immersed in this moment of tranquility and harmony.
Talia was called downstairs to help as a janitor again.
And Lanci and Hyperion stayed at her home.
Now Talia has two more chairs in her home in addition to her lounge chair.
One is from Ranch and the other is from Hyperion.
Since Hyperion came, Talia seemed to have tacitly allowed Lanci to stay in her house.
"I got another encrypted version of the [Certificate of Resurrection - Destruction], and also got the two spells of the Bishop of Destruction, [Grand Guignol Theater] and [Spark of Destruction]. Good people are really rewarded."
Lanqi looked at the magic cards in his hand. He didn't expect to have such an unexpected gain.
He got these from Phoenix.
Phoenix is still being held in the warehouse. When Dean Loren returns to school tomorrow morning, Phoenix can be sent directly to him to avoid any complications.
Rather than letting his cards be confiscated by the Hutton Kingdom, Phoenix gave all of them to Ranchi.
The unbinding of these two sacred pink cards took a lot of expensive materials and time.
Moreover, after the soul binding was removed, not only did Phoenix fall into a weakened state, but some of his card positions would not be usable for a long time.
This is the price of unbinding the pink sacred magic card.
Although Bishop Ivanos of Destruction is the holder of the [Original Slate - Fire] and a symbol of disaster and incineration, it just so happens that Ranci is also a card maker who has done some research on fire.
"These two cards are too dangerous. I need to keep them safely."
In addition to giving [Proof of Resurrection - Destruction] to Hyperion, Lanci kept the other two pink sacred cards [Great Guignol Theater] and [Spark of Destruction] for himself, because the two cards of controlling civilians and self-destruction were not suitable for Hyperion.
“…”
Hyperion always felt that it would not be a good thing for these two cards to be in Ranch's hands. --Three chapters today, and there is one more chapter to come! (End of this chapter)
