Novel Full Chapter 148: Unlucky Nathan (Bonus)
“I’m done here.” Sera let out a long breath, feeling tired after tying up over 30 people.
“Nice. Are you going to inform the authority right now? As much as I want to help, Anubis still has to remain.” Nathan pointed at Anubis. There were over fifty bandits that were still alive, so Anubis had to tie up the rest with his bandages.
“Don’t worry. I have be receiving a lot from you, so I’ll take care of everything else. Please watch over them while I’m reporting this to the governmt.”
“Sure.” Nathan waved his hand.
Brunhild volunteered to take her to the city since she could also fly. In the d, the fall angel and the angel had to return.
Nathan just brought the bandits to the main hall and cooled down.
Frir asked, “Wh are we going to the Ancit Library?”
“Let me ask a couple of questions first, since they are going to disappear after the trial ds. As for the time… I think the trial will d in one or two hours.” Nathan explained.
“Alright. I’ll just sleep here th.” Frir walked to the basemt, since it was the coolest place in this desert. Anubis remained by his side while Nidhogg had already returned.
As Nathan predicted, Sera came back an hour later.
“I’m back. The soldiers will come to this place in thirty minutes. I have explained the circumstances, and they will take care of it. I’m grateful that the guards are understanding.” Sera smiled. “It’s thanks to you. Although I want to repay you, I don’t know what I can give you right now.”
“Don’t worry about it. Instead, how about answering a couple of questions from me?”
“If I can answer, th yes, with pleasure.” Sera nodded.
“First of all, why are you wearing clothes like these?”
“What do you mean?” Sera tilted her head in confusion.
“I mean, your clothes look tight, and the skirt has slits on the sides. Are you wearing the formal clothes from the church?”
“Ah!” Sera nodded in understanding. “I’m not wearing formal clothes. According to Sonia… I mean, my fall angel, if I wear clothes like these, I can get more befits from the people. In fact, I’ll be more popular, and the people will be more likely to follow the church.
“I can’t really dy it. A lot of people have be giving more donations. They actually look happier as well. And it’s not like I’m showing too much.”
Nathan blinked his eyes a few times while Anubis said, “She got a point.”
‘What a devious plan from the fall angel! She is trying to corrupt her more and more. As one would expect from a fall angel… I mean, she has done a good job!’ Nathan’s gaze became more intse. Of course, there was no way he could say it.
Instead, he asked, while maintaining his poker face. “Does the church not reprimand you about it?”
“Well, yes. In fact, my teacher has told me about it and doesn’t know what to do.”
“That’s understandable.” Nathan thought, ‘A corrupt priestess, huh? That sounds nice, but… no, wait. I have read a lot of stories about both extremes. The one who is filled with too much justice is annoying, but the opposite side is also troublesome.
‘Should I attempt something that is rarely se? Instead of both sides, should I combine them together?’ Nathan looked at Sera, imagining her having a wing and a black wing.
‘Yes. This is it. From a universal point of view, this is balance. From martial arts’s perspective, this is yin and yang. In normal people’s eyes, this is day and night. Hehehe.
I am a gius.’ Still, Nathan couldn’t help but sigh. ‘Th again, she is just an illusion. This will be over once the trial is completed. Such a shame.’
“What’s wrong?” Sera didn’t know about Nathan’s evil plan.
“It’s nothing. As long as you know the limit, I think you will do just fine.” Nathan hurriedly distracted her with a few more questions until the soldiers arrived.
Sera immediately greeted the soldiers and let them take over the situation. They tied them up and brought the bandit with them.
With this, the mission should have be completed. After the soldiers left, Nathan decided to get going.
“It’s thanks to you that this matter can be resolved in such a manner. For that, I’m grateful. If fate allows us, I hope we can meet again in the future.”
“Alright. Now that everything has be settled, it’s time to go to the Ancit Library of the Fairy Que.” Nathan grinned, his eyes so bright as if they were saying, ‘Take me please.’
“Huh?” Sera tilted her head in confusion.
“Huh?” Nathan was tak aback by her response, which made him realize something. “You… are not the one that will bring me to the ancit library? You are not the guide?”
Sera took a step back with a dumbfounded expression.
He had done all that and ev completed the mission with a flying color. Wh he saw Sera’s expression, all the memories from the past two days resurfaced in his mind.
The mission had be going exceptionally well this whole time. In fact, the situation was much more predictable compared to what he expericed so far.
At the same time, he realized that the simplicity of this mission came not from the bandits or Sera, but actually from the villagers. If the emies were formed by the uneducated villagers, there was no way they could form a good plan against him and Sera.
In other words, what if this was real? What if not a single thing was like he thought? What if this was not the trial?
Nathan froze as he couldn’t help but remember his luck as well as what the elder said to him.
“Your life will be filled with problems. However, all your luck has gone to wom. Basically, your luck with wom is the highest one I’ve se in my tire life. So you either die because of those problems or lead a fulfilling life.”
He finally understood those words. What he meant by his luck was Sera. Meanwhile, the rest of it was just him being unlucky. After all, he had to search for the guide from scratch.
The momt he realized Sera wasn’t the guide, he couldn’t help but scream, “FUUU—”
