Get Ahead of the Fallen Heroine and Make the Bull-Headed Man the Victim - Chapter 192
Chapter 192.
Mr. Noah, you’re all about yourself.
Noah certainly wouldn’t tell Clotilde that he wasn’t relying on his counseling abilities, but rather using his eldritch powers to forcibly relax the other person’s mood.
Moreover, that middle-aged man was not worthy of forgiveness.
Because he was here to confess to the priest and the goddess about forcing himself on a little girl.
When Noah wore the priest’s attire, everyone around him, except for Clotilde, would think he was a trustworthy priest in the Water City Cathedral.
If that middle-aged man could confess to Noah like this, it meant that in this church, one could confess to the priest without fear of punishment.
But it’s no wonder, Noah had known this for a long time, after all, the leader of this cathedral, Horace, was not a good person.
It’s worth knowing that more than half of the clergy in this cathedral were heretics who would participate in silver-plated rituals without feeling ashamed.
Noah, of course, was not a good person either, but since he had heard about this, he couldn’t pretend he hadn’t.
The old man thought that confessing to the “priest” would be the end of it, right?
But the “evil god” wouldn’t let him off that easily.
Noah would make him feel what it’s like to suffer tonight at midnight.
……
For about an hour later, Noah continued to act like a serious priest, doing things that were indistinguishable from a real priest.
Clotilde was also fulfilling her duties as a normal nun.
Noah’s ability could influence anyone except Clotilde, even if he was smoking, drinking, and loudly mocking everyone as idiots.
Others would think Noah was doing very serious things, such as reciting the Bible with emotional sincerity.
However, if Clotilde was around, Noah couldn’t rely on his ability and had to seriously act like a priest.
Because Clotilde still didn’t know that Noah was an evil god.
In other words, Noah actually had the ability to be a priest, but he just didn’t want to.
Being able to do something and wanting to do it were two different things, and Noah, as an evil god, wouldn’t do things he didn’t want to do.
If it weren’t for Clotilde, Noah wouldn’t have gone to such great lengths.
As the afternoon approached 3:30, the number of believers in the cathedral’s main hall finally decreased from dozens to single digits.
At this time, even if the cathedral lacked Clotilde’s help, it didn’t matter, so Noah also decided to slip away.
As for where to go, the answer was naturally to complete the task of eliminating heretics.
In fact, not long ago, a believer had come to tell Noah, the priest, that there seemed to be suspicious demonic creatures lurking around his neighborhood.
Originally, Noah didn’t take it seriously, as this was a world where even nuns would be attacked by demons and magic.
Which city corner didn’t hide demons?
But unfortunately, Clotilde happened to overhear it, and immediately offered to take on the task of purifying heretics.
And then?
And then, of course, the two of them headed towards that believer’s home.
It’s worth noting that at this time, Noah was still wearing the priest’s attire.
This was the first time Clotilde had seen Noah wear the attire outside the cathedral, and it felt a bit out of place.
“…Don’t always stare at other people’s bodies, what’s the point? Are you reacting to the tattoos/ patterns? You’re really quick, aren’t you?”
Noah, who noticed her emotions, didn’t pretend not to see and directly teased her about whether she was feeling emotional.
If that was the case, it would be better for the two of them to return to the church, or find a secluded spot, which wasn’t a bad idea either.
“Huff…I’ve let out a sigh of relief, and it’s still that annoying Mr. Noah.”
From noble mtl dot com
Noah originally thought Clothilde would get angry.
But unexpectedly, Clothilde, after hearing Noah’s response, put her hand on her impressive chest and let out a sigh of relief, followed by a similarly impolite remark.
“Haha, what did you think? I’m a human observer particularly interested in you as a nun, and for me, being a priest is just a part-time job.”
Noah felt that her reaction was quite good and didn’t get angry, but instead laughed self-centeredly, putting on an air of ‘it’s reasonable for a nun like Miss Clothilde to dislike me’.
“Don’t treat your main job as a part-time one, you’re really full of yourself…”
After finishing her sentence, Clothilde let out a deep sigh and gradually shifted her gaze away from Noah, looking towards the road ahead of them.
She had just seen Noah working seriously, and it was as if he was a different person, which made her doubt whether the Noah beside her was the one she knew.
Although this opening remark made her realize her worries were unnecessary.
However, she suddenly discovered that no matter whether the other person was the real Noah or not, she felt quite exhausted.
From her initial fierce resistance to her current gradual habituation, she felt she was really amazing.
If it were another nun, they would have been driven to tears by Noah long ago.
Alas…her life was indeed full of twists and turns.
Clothilde, who was lamenting her fate, stopped staring at Noah’s body and focused on hurrying along the road.
However, what Clothilde didn’t expect was that this time, it was Noah’s turn to stare at her body intensely.
Originally, Clothilde planned to pretend not to see, as she could guess that Noah was ‘intentionally retaliating’ against her earlier behavior.
But as the passersby’s gazes towards her increased, she couldn’t pretend not to see anymore and finally couldn’t help but look at Noah beside her and complain:
“Noah, what are you planning to do? My body doesn’t have anything worth looking at, please don’t keep staring, it’s really attention-seeking.”
That was a speech filled with complaints, as in Clothilde’s view, Noah was like a child who didn’t know how to behave.
“Hmm? What’s wrong with being attention-seeking? Your attire is already different from that of a typical nun, and why do you always care about other people’s opinions, aren’t you tired?”
“So, this is necessary behavior as a nun, don’t think that others are all as rude as you, Mr. Noah.”
After saying this, Clothilde didn’t bother with Noah anymore and continued walking towards their destination.
Noah’s words, of course, didn’t get through to Clothilde.
But she didn’t plan to forcefully correct Noah’s values now, and for the time being, she just hoped that the two of them could cooperate without interfering with each other…
It was just a makeshift solution, after all.
When she thought of a way to eliminate the tattoos/patterns on her abdomen, humph, she would stick to Noah every day, persuading him to change his ways and become a good person.
Even if Noah was unwilling, she would change his attitude towards the goddess.
Although they would both definitely be stripped of their divine positions for committing sins not allowed by the church, this didn’t stop them from continuing to believe in the goddess.
The nun, who had her own thoughts hidden in her heart, couldn’t help but smile when she thought of this, and her recent gloomy face would involuntarily reveal a hint of a smile.
——This guy must be thinking of something impossible, probably trying to make me believe in the goddess, haha, it’s fundamentally impossible, who would believe in a goddess, and even if I wanted to, the goddess herself would probably feel like vomiting.
But the hint of a smile on her beautiful, unparalleled profile was again noticed by Noah, who was walking alongside her.
However, he didn’t plan to shatter Clotilde’s beautiful dream.
Anyway, it wouldn’t be long before her “blemish” would act up again.
