The woman nodded and continued to guide Lius to move back and forth on the map, drawing four winding curves from the four cardinal directions along the kingdom's border. She then marked two different locations on the edge, connecting them to form an irregular six-pointed star-shaped magic circle that enveloped the entire kingdom.
Six curves, six array points, were regularly distributed around the kingdom's perimeter, creating a mysterious and strange atmosphere under the lamplight, seemingly carrying a hint of conspiracy.
"The six array points here all have a sufficient supply of magic power, which is the result of my companions' and my efforts over the past few years. After so many years of preparation, the time has finally come for the sacrificial ceremony. At that time, as long as the offerings are made, the goddess will awaken and once again bless this land, just like in ancient times..."
Stroking the rough map, the nameless young lady looked serious, her expression filled with anticipation and longing.
"..."
Meanwhile, as Lius looked at the crisscrossing lines on the map, a sudden flash of inspiration struck him, and he suddenly remembered.
This six-pointed star formation, consisting of two triangles, one upright and one inverted, seems to be very similar to the emblems and symbols used in churches.
No, not just very similar, they are completely identical!
The proportions and lengths of every straight line are exactly the same, and even the irregular parts are completely reproduced, forming a church pattern that is very familiar to Lius.
The only difference is probably the central circle in the church emblem.
It was a pale gray pattern resembling a lily, very delicate and elegant; such a complex shape would naturally not appear on a map.
But when Lius looked further at the map, he was surprised to find that the area in the very center of the six-pointed star, the area corresponding to the lily pattern in the church... was the town where he lived.
In other words... this is the very center of the entire magic circle, which is also the location of the magic circle's offerings!
"Di!"
The sound of water droplets hitting the ground made Lius's heart skip a beat for a moment.
Chapter 105 The Mystery After the Beauty
"this place……"
Staring at the location on the map, Leus frowned in surprise and unconsciously pressed his finger against it.
The town here, like the other array points, had no deviations in its array structure. Several array patterns firmly surrounded it, like a caged bird, giving Lius a sense of foreboding.
“Miss Nameless, how much magic power does this formation require? And if it is activated… what kind of sacrifice will be required?” After hesitating for a moment, Lius asked.
"Sacrifice?"
"Yes, to activate the formation, in addition to setting up the formation eye, we also need to place offerings at the center of the formation. Now that the formation eye has been set up, what kind of offerings are needed at the center of the formation to ensure its successful activation?"
Lius frowned and looked at her, while the nameless lady pondered for a moment before speaking:
"According to my memory, my colleague told me that she had cultivated a suitable sacrifice, a pure crystal of magic. Only with this purest and most flawless magic could the magic circle that awakens the goddess be successfully activated."
"The purest and most flawless magic... what is that?" Leus asked.
“I don’t know the details of this matter either, but according to my colleagues, she will go into hiding in the darkness, along with this offering, until the day of the sacrifice arrives. If we count the time, it should be no more than a week away.”
As the nameless lady spoke, she gently reached into her bosom, rubbed it for a moment, and then pulled out an object from the chest of her bodysuit made of sticky fluid. It was a small ring, which she handed to Lius.
"This is a keepsake given to me by my colleague before she left. According to her, if I have urgent business to attend to and need to see her, I should simply crush the ring. She will sense the breakage and come to me. With this, the master can meet with his colleague and have her remove the runes placed on those demons."
"..."
As the woman spoke, Lius nodded thoughtfully, put the ring on his hand for the moment, and after a moment of silence, continued speaking to the nameless lady:
"How many of the 'colleagues' you mentioned are there in total?"
"I don't know the exact number, but roughly speaking, there are more than ten people, led by the colleague who set up the magic array for me. They are traveling all over the world, working hard on the great plan to resurrect the goddess. They are a very great group of people."
"How did you get in touch with them? Did they come looking for you?" Lius continued to ask.
"No, it wasn't them who found me, nor was it me who found them. We were just following the Goddess's instructions to meet here and learn about the formation that could bring the Goddess back to life. If we count the time, from the first time I heard the Goddess's voice until now... it has been twenty years."
"You can hear the goddess's voice too?"
Upon hearing the woman's words, Lius asked in surprise, while the nameless lady nodded vigorously, a respectful look appearing in her eyes.
"Yes, I still remember that day vividly. I was sitting alone in the library, guarding this underground ruin, waiting for the priests or colleagues who might arrive at any time. This was my duty."
At this point, the woman paused, as if some deep memories were welling up within her, allowing her to compose herself before continuing her story calmly:
"However, after a long wait, I couldn't help but feel some despair. Was what I was doing meaningful? Was it just wishful thinking on my part? Did my actions in protecting the church ruins really align with the Goddess's wishes? Such thoughts lingered in my mind and I couldn't forget them for a long time."
“After all, they’ve been underground for hundreds of years. Even the most devout person would feel uncomfortable after being cooped up for so long,” Lius nodded understandingly.
"Yes, at that time I thought I couldn't hold on any longer, but one day, while I was doing my daily prayers, I suddenly heard the voice of the goddess in my ear."
In an instant, a sense of joy flashed across the black-haired woman's face, causing the corners of her mouth to turn up slightly.
"Although it was sudden, the moment I heard the voice, I was certain that it was the voice of the goddess. That holy and noble feeling could only be revealed by a god, just like how my master felt about me! The moment I heard the voice, I could hardly control myself and knelt down on the ground, crying out to the voice in my ear about the suffering I had endured over the years."
"You've worked hard..."
Although he wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do, Lius went along with the mood and stroked the hair of the beautiful woman in front of him.
"Ha... Thank you for your concern, Master, but I'm fine. I was just very touched by the Goddess's favor. Afterwards, I followed the Goddess's instructions and met with a group of colleagues who came to this village to discuss the Goddess's magic circle with them."
"The first meeting...when did it happen?"
"About fifteen years ago, and we've met from time to time since, the most recent time being a few weeks ago. It was then that they helped me set up this rune and asked me to prepare for the upcoming ritual."
The nameless woman answered truthfully and once again showed Lius the crimson pattern on her chest. Lius nodded slightly, already understanding the general situation.
"Well... this time we've certainly gained a lot, but things are getting more and more complicated after this interrogation..."
After a few moments of internal reflection, the young man looked at the woman in front of him again, composed himself, and asked her another important question:
"Do you recall any of your colleagues, for example... are any of them members of the orthodox church?"
"Orthodox church?"
"It's those people who wear crosses and have a sense of holiness. Their magic is also different from that of ordinary people, like this one."
Levius moved closer to the woman, took a deep breath, and released the magic he had previously obtained from Bishop Helen from You, revealing it to the nameless lady.
"This feeling……"
The woman gently reached out to touch the shimmering crystal, closed her eyes to feel it, and when she opened them, her eyes gleamed with confirmation.
"Yes, I have that feeling. Although it's a bit naive, my intuition is probably right. I have this person among my colleagues."
"Really?"
Somewhat surprised, Lius asked again, then pondered for a moment before gathering another portion of magic from his robes—the magic left behind by High Priestess Irina—and revealing it to the woman.
"What about this one? Do you remember it?"
“This… seems to be a monster that came to the church earlier. She and some others tried to infiltrate the underground library, but I drove them away. She is not one of my colleagues.” The woman shook her head with certainty.
"Is that so...? That's quite unexpected. So, Ms. Irina really just suspected Helen and didn't intend to frame her..."
Thinking back to that somewhat snobbish, plump nun, combined with the information he had just obtained, it seemed that apart from her desire for status... she really didn't seem to have done anything seriously wrong, and she didn't seem to be the mastermind behind this incident, as Lius had previously considered.
"It seems I'll have to keep a close eye on things at the church when I get back. Cooperating with Ms. Irina might not be a bad idea. I could also ask Aunt Annie to introduce me. I might as well take her with me. That would make the investigation a little smoother."
As he pondered this, although doubts still lingered in his mind, Lius had already confirmed the direction of his next investigation.
After stretching slightly, he continued to look at the black-haired beauty in front of him, who was wiping her mouth and licking away the remaining moisture. Gazing at her voluptuous and alluring figure and her beautiful and charming face, Lius couldn't help but feel conflicted.
"Now, what should we do with Miss Wuming... Logically, we should eliminate her immediately, but it's not good to just abandon her like that. Besides, there are still many mysteries surrounding her that need to be solved, and she has such a great figure. Eliminating her directly would be a waste. But if we don't eliminate her... what should we do about her identity afterwards..."
As Lius pondered this, the system on his shoulder suddenly spoke:
"If you want to keep her, host, this system has a way, hehe, but I don't know if you'd be willing to use it."
"Oh? Miss System, you have a solution?"
Looking at the girl on his shoulder, watching her playful expression, Lius hesitated for a moment.
"Really that kind of person... But something feels off about your tone, Miss System..."
"Hehe, not at all! This system is very much on the host's side, and this system also has some doubts about this monster. If we keep her, we might be able to find out what this 'goddess' she is."
As the system spoke, her serious expression lasted for a moment before she leaned closer to Lius's ear with a playful grin.
"Moreover, this method of our system can also satisfy your hobbies, host, to conquer this monster lady's body and smoothly add her to your harem. How can you ignore such a good opportunity? Host, you are also looking forward to it, aren't you?"
"Forehead……"
Feeling awkward after the system pointed out his inner thoughts, Leus looked away, pondered for a moment, and then, unsure how to answer, finally managed to ask in a serious tone:
"So...what's the price?"
"The price, well, it'll be sacrificing some of your image, host! As long as you do as this system says, I guarantee it will satisfy you. Listen carefully, this is what this system is thinking..."
With a mischievous, gleeful grin, Miss System leaned close to Leus's ear and, under his slightly furrowed brow, recounted her meticulously prepared "plan"...
Chapter 106 Wife at Present...
Some time later, outside the wooden house.
"Why hasn't my elder brother come out yet... So much time has passed, and I can't hear what they're talking about inside. I'm so worried..."
Clutching her hands, Leah blinked her bright, clear eyes and looked anxiously into the closed door, her voice filled with worry.
"..."
Looking next to Leah, Diana also frowned, her lips pursed in concern, silently waiting for the possible reaction from inside the room, along with the white-haired loli beside her.
"There shouldn't be any problems... Although this young master is usually impulsive, he won't make mistakes when it matters. I should trust him."
Diana tried to convince herself of this, taking several deep breaths, but the unease in her heart only grew stronger with time, causing her to clutch her rapidly beating heart.
"What's going on... Why do I have this ominous feeling... like something important is about to be taken away by someone else? Could it be... that my dear is really in danger..."
"ah!"
Just as Diana and Lia were worrying and pondering, they suddenly heard a scream from inside the house, as if someone had been attacked, which made the two outside freeze in place for a moment.
"..."
After a brief silence, the two looked at each other and then acted simultaneously.
"Brother!"
"Honey!"
Lia gripped the magic sword that shimmered with white light tightly in her hand. At her fastest speed, she rushed into the house anxiously and frantically, calling out to her brother. She kept waving the blade in her hand, ready to deal with any possible attack.
Meanwhile, Diana completely disregarded her image as a noblewoman, taking large strides and sprinting in an exaggerated manner, wobbling and squeezing into the doorway with the girl beside her, her voice filled with disbelief and as she frantically searched for Lius's figure.
"Honey, where are you? Are you alright?"
"Brother! Lia is here to help you! Anyone who tries to harm you will have to get past Lia first!"
The two beauties, filled with extreme concern for Leus, stepped into the house one on each side, their eyes darting anxiously toward the spot in the center of the room where Leus was.
The next moment, Diana and Lia blinked slightly, stunned for a moment, looking in surprise at everything that was happening in front of them.
"Ah... Master, please continue to love me well... Master..."
In the center of the room, Delius sat in a chair, his body almost completely relaxed, reclining on the back of the chair as if enjoying a sunbath.
In front of him, a voluptuous beauty in a tight-fitting outfit was making a very daring pose.
Her lower body remained in a squatting position, with her two beautiful feet, encased in a split-toe latex suit, resting on the armrests of the chair on either side. Her knees were spread apart to the left and right, enveloping Lius on the chair between her two squatting beauties, further highlighting her round and full buttocks in the tight-fitting suit, making them appear ambiguous and alluring.
Looking at the woman's upper body, one can see that the dark-haired beauty is pressed close to Lius's face, her lips tightly pressed against his, while her full breasts are pressed against Lius's body, conveying that elastic feeling to the boy's mind.
"Well……"
During the kiss, the woman occasionally let out soft moans of pleasure, and her eyes flashed with a dazed look.
Two slender hands, encased in black latex, rested on Lius's shoulders. Accompanied by the rhythmic movement of her lips, she rhythmically massaged his lips and shoulders, demonstrating her most sincere and respectful service to the young man before her.
"Master... are you satisfied with my actions...?"
"Not bad, very comfortable... Miss Wuming, you did a great job."
"That's good. As long as I can serve my master, that's the happiest thing for me..."
The nameless young lady looked at Leus with a hint of joy, and Leus smiled and stroked the hair of the mature woman with dark hair. Suddenly, an idea came to him, and he leaned closer to her ear and continued:
"Don't refer to yourself as 'I' anymore, it sounds weirdly retro. In front of me, you should refer to yourself as 'me,' it sounds much cuter. Come on, Miss Nameless, give it a try."
"People..."
