Chapter 868: Chapter 243: AFK Leveling Plan
Reporters were politely asked to leave the ceremony site after the results came out.
They dared not be talkative or troublesome at such a time.
Everyone knew that it was definitely time to play a game of hide and seek with the assassin. Although journalists were also curious about the final outcome, in the end, no one dared to continue staying and hinder the process.
Mainly, they didn’t dare attract the suspicion and hostility of the Holy Nation—they were invited here not because of their status, but because the Holy Nation was willing to extend them that courtesy. Similarly, if they annoyed someone, that courtesy could very well be revoked.
They were just reporters, not newspaper owners.
If they angered the Holy Nation and all journalists from their newspapers were banned from entering the Holy Nation... no one could afford that responsibility. They could even encounter troubles locally—the local officials, trying to please the Holy Nation, would definitely be capable of such things.
...
Hence, the idea of “exclusive news” just circulated in their minds and no one dared to be curious about who the finally caught Assassin Master would be.
...Of course, a bigger reason was that the news of “who assassinated the Saintess” couldn’t beat the news of “a seventeen-year-old human Pope.”
Many times, the “exclusivity” and “authenticity” of news are not very important. When everyone is passionately discussing something, even if you come out with a truly valuable exclusive, it’s likely that no one would pay attention.
In the end, only Aiwass and two others were left by Saintess Glei to have lunch here.
The lunch was very rich... because it was not human food.
—Anyway, they were delicious, no need to add unnecessary mental pressure.
This table full of extravagant dishes took more than two hours for Aiwass and his group to finish eating.
Including Yanis, there were a total of five people. Midway, a few Cardinal Archbishops joined in, and they barely managed to finish all the dishes without any waste.
At that time, the Cardinal Archbishops also finally started tasting “Sacred Tree No. 1.”
Everyone amiably clinked glasses, then all smiled and clinked glasses with Aiwass, each properly calling him “Your Holiness.”
“Apparently, this is a play directed at me, right?”
Aiwass couldn’t help but comment, “Won’t you tell me in advance?”
“Because this feels more genuine.”
Cardinal Galatea beside him answered, “This is the script I wrote—everyone said that since I had contracted Gemini Mirror, I should handle this. Since I didn’t know much about you before, Vicar Pope Aiwass. I could only choose the safest approach... Please forgive me.”
Her voice was as cold as nearly freezing, reminiscent of a frozen, cracking lake surface or crystal wind chimes.
She was the girl with snow-like demeanor and pure white long hair, previously anointed by the Gemini Mirror—also the one kissed stealthily by Eternal Self.
She was the only one sitting at the table who hadn’t eaten anything.
