MTL - The More They Object, the More It Means I Did the Right Thing

Chapter 23 At this moment, Ansu chooses to read a book

 “Ansu, come here.”

 Ansu was surprised.

Does this still have your own business?

 He raised his head and stared at Luojia:

The latter is wearing a snow-white spun skirt today, with light and translucent edges. A pure white Cecilia flower is pinned to it, and her smooth calves are tied with white satin ribbons.

The sunlight shines warmly through her eyes, making them as transparent and clean as amber.

At this moment, those amber eyes were looking at him.

 I always feel a bit murderous.

This is what true magicians do. Even when they are in the hospital receiving infusions, they can still complete a few books and do it.

Ansu didn't like this feeling. He tilted his head and said, "Before me, maybe you should pay attention to the man next to you first. His smiling face is cramping."

　　It is the one who takes away the prey that belongs to him. The one who harms it.

Cavins' face turned red, his lips pursed, but he could not speak.

Everyone held their breath, watching him expectantly and quietly, waiting for his next words.

 “Is this the glorious man?”

ˆ “.”

Cavins was sandwiched between them, listening to their conversation, the smile on his lips was stiff and ugly, and his half-stretched hand was withdrawn in embarrassment at this moment.

More and more people agreed, and the voice of the mysterious hero became louder and louder.

 The situation of not having one has never happened in the sixty years since the establishment of the Border Church.

 His expression became even more ugly, "Hello, Your Majesty the Holy Maiden."

The people around are still waiting for Cavins' answer.

If the newspapers had not reported that he would lead a witch hunt, so many irrelevant people would not have flocked to it; if he had not knelt down in the Holy See to pray and swear a promise, he would not have pushed the matter to such a climax.

 It was that person who caused the harm.

 Cavans was put on a high platform by everyone, a very, very high platform.

 In this person's heart, his status is no better than the sexually transformed pea cultivated by the druid!

“In short, you come out—” She pursed her thin lips and said softly, “Come out for a while.”

Time suddenly felt long and silent at this moment, and the warm sunshine shone on my body, but it was as cold as death.

But this was a kind laughter, but when it fell on Cavins' ears, it was harsh and sharp.

“One.” Cavins bit his lip and finally choked out the words from deep in his throat, “Not one.”

"No."

"Are you kidding?" Luojia felt that maybe he should smile, so that he could show that he had a sense of humor and could keep up with the joke, so he chuckled calmly, "Hey, you are really funny."

 It’s really that those eyes are too clean and transparent, as if everything is reflected in the pupils, and nothing can be hidden in them.

 Cavans broke through the defense and could no longer maintain the perfect knight image he had maintained for many years. He roared; "Not a single one was found!"

This guy has been waiting for a long time, seeing that it won't be over for a while. Luojia will have something to ask him later, and he can't escape on his own.

  “That makes sense.”

 Cavans argued bitterly,

　　"Before someone else! All six strongholds were overrun by others!"

 To him, he used "you", and to Ansu, he directly said "you". Cavins clearly noticed the difference in closeness and distance during this period.

"indeed so."

  Could it be that this guy found himself secretly offering sacrifices?

 “Where were you last night?”

"I was preempted by despicable people. They stole my prey, but I swear, I will find him. There are still two days of the red moon. I swear, I will wash away the shame, and I will definitely catch him. "

 The corners of Cavins' mouth twitched slightly.

 The higher you hold it, the harder it will fall.

It seems that in Ansu's eyes, everything that happens in front of him, whether he is hunting witches and triumphant, or whether he has not hunted any one, are all insignificant matters. Ansu Mournings, whom he regards as his life-long enemy tower-

 “I’m looking forward to your performance in the witch hunt last night.”

 “It’s a shame I’ve been waiting”

 “‘Tonight’s honor belongs to you’—so sacred and romantic.”

 He suspected that he heard wrongly, "You said he is a hero?"

"yes."

 A group of low-level untouchables who tend to follow the trend of others.

What made Cavins look even more embarrassed was that the crowd of believers who came to watch gradually became aware of him. Someone shouted "Cavens has made a triumphant return", and the scene suddenly got out of control.

"Look, that's Her Majesty the Virgin. Her Majesty Cavins is here to fulfill the knight's promise."

 “What a joke.”

Chavins only remembers the burning pain in his cheek.

''Powerful and gentle, he protects everyone without leaving his name. Such an aloof knight should naturally be called a hero. "

 “Hero?” Cavins was stunned.

  A country bumpkin from a nouveau riche family.

And the Cursed Child, that Ansu Mournings.

He is laughing too. Wait, what is he doing?

He didn’t know when he took out a copy of "Druid Biology Compulsory Course 1" from his school bag. This guy was actually bored because he had nothing to do - he was reading the book and answering questions!

  Cavins stared at Ansu in shock, feeling that his outlook on life was about to collapse.

 For them, who are simple and unpretentious, whether a white cat or a black cat, the one that catches mice is a good cat.

The book "Druids' Compulsory Course" recommended to him by the maid lady is actually quite interesting and contains a lot of practical knowledge.

"yes."

"not a single one!"

 The people worshiped him, the girls admired him, and the believers regarded him as the future of the Border Church.

 “I went to bed yesterday.”

Father Danny on the side saw that something was wrong. He swallowed calmly, smiled, and asked with the last hope,

"What?"

They stood on tiptoes, their faces flushed with excitement, and they were crowded together. There were even young girls holding bouquets of flowers and scattering petals towards him.

 Everyone has high hopes for him.

Why, Ansu Morningstar is just a despicable child of the curse!

 It was all caused by that person!

  Cavins clenched his fists so hard that his nails seemed to dig into his flesh.

 “Twenty paladins. None of them were hunted.”

 It was almost bleeding from all the orifices.

Luojia paused. Maybe he felt that what Ansu said made sense, and he also noticed that he was being rude, so he coughed lightly, then turned his face and looked at Cavins.

 “He said there was none?”

Chavins seemed to hear the whispers of the crowd, their murmurs, their murmurs.

 Carvins has never received such top insults!

 But it’s really no wonder Ansu,

 That's the nature of his character. As a speedrunner, he always puts efficiency first.

 Then, other girls naturally agreed,

“The mysterious hero cleared out the esoteric cultists in advance to prevent the paladins from getting hurt. You should be happy.”

In the crowd, a girl holding a bouquet suddenly asked, "Who is that hero? Where is he?"

“Your Majesty Cavans.”

 “Huh?” Luo Jia blinked again, suspecting that he heard wrongly.

Ansu felt guilty for no reason.

However, Ansu really didn't pay much attention to Cavins.

The Holy See holds the Red Moon Witch Hunt every year, and the Paladins formed every year still make a small gain, if not a full harvest.

I thought that I would just have to wait anyway. In order not to waste time as an efficiency maniac, I would just read a book and brush up on the questions.

 “What’s the matter?” he replied, “Your Majesty?”

 In fact, he has no reason to blame anyone, because he created this popularity himself, for political show, and for next year's votes.

 The tone was more like a command than a request.

The restless and noisy believers around him fell silent at the same time.

 After all, this guy doesn’t even have an entry in the game.

"Hello." She politely raised the hem of her skirt and performed a ladylike manner, "Your Majesty Cavans."

 It’s not as interesting as reading a book.

Luojia obviously heard the cries of the crowd. She tilted her head, blinked her eyes, thinking that the atmosphere had reached this point, and she had to keep going, and then said:

How do the common people understand these twists and turns? They don’t understand the hidden rules of witch hunting, and they don’t know what a point of faith is.

 Cavans only felt that the world was so absurd.

But Cavins won’t think it’s his fault.

 Is she even laughing at herself?

 Everyone was laughing at him.

Those believers, those people. He looked around and felt that everyone was laughing at him.

 “Then may I ask——”

“Your Majesty Cavins, are you kidding me?”

 “His Majesty Cavans has returned—what an honor!”

Those who can protect them are their heroes.

Could it be that his series of publicity efforts, including inviting the media and performing show-style prayers, which attracted so much attention, ended up being used as wedding clothes for others!

 At this moment,

Ansu is still concentrating on reading.

 He saw the chapter on ‘Biological Diversity’.
