Rejected the Demon’s Marriage Proposal Thousands of Times Chapter 27.2

Betrayal of Trust (2)

She glanced at Father Louis secretly and saw that his expression was the same; she could only guess that he had not heard them.

With this glance, Anna saw that the demon was also looking at her. When their eyes met, he curled his lips and showed a wonderful smile.

Rothgarr was now very convinced that Anna didn’t put much faith in the goddess from the bottom of her heart. She was sneaking glances at the priest just now, most likely because she was afraid of him overhearing their conversation.

If she truly believed in the so-called goddess, she would have directly told Father Louis the words he had said.

She was afraid of the Vatican's punishment, but she didn't really reject him on account of her devout beliefs.

Things were looking up.

He was a bit cheerful. How could the woman who made him devote great effort to scheming stupidly believe in things that didn’t exist?

Rothgarr had high hopes for Victor's body. He believed that it would be much easier to take down Anna with this body, so for now, he would reluctantly perfuse Father Louis until his goal was achieved.

"I am not too seriously injured," Rothgarr said succinctly.

Rothgarr learned from Victor’s memory that Victor chose to temporarily stay in the estate of a nobleman who did not have such a close relationship with the Vatican because he was worried that the priests of Blue Rock were in cahoots with the group of attackers, and would help the latter, even directly killing him themselves.

Of course, there was also a powerful four-star mage in the mansion, which was another important reason for Victor's choice to stay here.

It was just that a man’s schemes were inferior to heaven’s plan for him.

Father Louis had no complaints about the slightly cold reaction of the Holy Son. The smile on his face was still bright, and the concern in his eyes was sincere.

"That's good. If you want, you can go to the Blue Stone City Church. I will provide you with the most appropriate retreat to recuperate." Father Louis offered graciously. He very much hoped to be able to have an amicable relationship with the highly promising Holy Son. With a good relationship, he would have a way to move to a larger and more affluent city in the future.

He believed that in a larger city, he could have more opportunities to display his talents and dedicate his life to the goddess.

"No, I'm fine here." Rothgarr naturally refused.

Father Louis was a little disappointed, but soon put on a smile again: "Earl Wilson is indeed a very devout believer, I trust that he will be able to provide the best care for you, Holy Son."

He said so and glanced at Anna, and continued in a dignified manner, "You have to take care of the Holy Son in every possible way, understand?"

"Yes, I will." Anna lowered her head and said.

Father Louis nodded in satisfaction. He saw that the esteemed Holy Son had been lying down ever since he came in, and had not sat up once. Thinking that the injury was really serious, and not wanting to disturb him, he saluted and left.

There was no one else in the room except Anna. Rothgarr felt much more comfortable.

He looked at Anna and continued the interrupted conversation between the two: "In front of me, you don't need to pretend to be pious to the goddess. Come here and help me up."

Anna was sent to take care of the Holy Son, so she could only walk over albeit unwillingly to help him up.

She didn't worry much about what the demon would do to her. Previous experience told her that although this demon was very vicious and wanted to snatch her soul, fortunately, he did not put his hands on her. It was unknown if this was due to differences in race.

As soon as Anna put her hand on the demon’s shoulder, she saw his body stiffen subconsciously.

Anna was taken aback, and quickly let go of him and asked: "Do you have an injury here?"

There was indeed a deep wound on Victor's shoulder, which was caused by Rothgarr himself. Now that Rothgarr had possessed him, it was he who suffered from the wound.

Rothgarr didn't pay much attention to this pain, flinching was just an instinctive reaction of his body.

But at this time, he remembered that Baran once said that women have the tendency to ‘mother’ others, and when a strong man occasionally showed a fragile side, it would attract a woman’s pity. And Parrish's past experience also told him that proper showing of weakness could help improve feelings of goodwill a woman had toward you.

Therefore, Rothgarr turned his head to look at Anna and said, "It hurts a bit."

Anna: "......." I didn't ask you whether it hurt or not!

Anna didn't think that the demon would be affected by a wound. It wasn’t his body, anyway, and he wouldn’t feel distressed if he was reckless with it. She was heartbroken for the Holy Son, and was caring about the Holy Son's body, okay?

To be honest, although she knew that all of this was the fault of the demon, she considered the fact that the demon had possessed several people in order to deceive her soul, and so she inevitably wanted to take responsibility for their bodies.

At least after the demon left, could he return a healthy body to the Holy Son?
