Chương 339: From now on, we're all on the same side!

Unlike Vina's, this faith-sharing connection was initiated by Roland.

Because Roland herself lacked strength, there was a certain delay in the process.

This delay caused Thranduil and the Moon Maid's expressions to change.

"Miss Roland, what's wrong...?"

The young saintess looked at the unresponsive crystal ball in Roland's hand, and her words became hesitant.

Roland knew what Thranduil wanted to say, so he raised his hand and gestured for them to wait a moment, pointing to the crystal ball to let them continue watching.

Whether I am loyal or not, the crystal ball will tell.

Less than a minute later, the system displayed a completion message.

[Ding! A faith-sharing agreement has been successfully established with "Light God - Kanster". Based on the technical level of the Church of Light, the percentage has been adjusted to 0. 22%.] [The system guarantees that the act of stealing... collecting faith will not be detected by the local deities.] The notification window slowly disappeared, and the crystal ball in Roland's hand shone brightly.

The church emblem on it pulsated wildly, radiating a dazzling light.

The light was so intense it was as if a flashbang had been thrown into the reception room, making it difficult for people to open their eyes.

Thranduil and the Moon Maid, seeing this, were also unable to maintain their composure and stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Seeing the expressions on their faces, Roland knew that things were settled now, and asked in return.

"Am I being loyal or disloyal?"

"Loyal, loyal!"

Thranduil's gaze towards Roland changed at that moment.

She looks even more seductive than a succubus, yet she's so devout—it's just too unfair!

This provides more faith than many star nuns in other parishes, especially in the Empire, a land lacking faith in the light.

As a high-ranking member of the church, her understanding of the faith was more detailed than Roland's.

Currently, faith in deities mainly comes from two sources: one is the spontaneous contributions of a wide range of believers, because the radiation range of the divine kingdom is limited and the signal is attenuated, so the overall efficiency is not high.

The second is to actively cultivate a large number of celebrity figures, such as saints who serve as image ambassadors and assist in collecting faith. The "Saintess Recruitment Plan" was born from this.

Roland's behavior not only demonstrates her unwavering loyalty, but also showcases the power of her ability to win people over.

Talent!

Gather talents with faith!

"Good, very good!"

Thranduil looked at Roland with satisfaction, took two steps forward, and warmly shook Roland's hand.

"Miss Roland, I have sensed your piety."

"From now on, we're on the same side!"

……

The atmosphere of the conversation became incredibly cheerful afterward, and Thranduil's smile never faded until the return journey.

"Miss Roland, that's enough to leave you at the door. You can go back to your work now."

"Don't worry, I'll take care of things on the Empire side. You just need to focus on developing the group. In the future, you and I will definitely be able to make great strides in the Empire."

"Thank you so much, Your Highness. I will follow your lead without hesitation. Please take care, Your Highness."

Roland waved goodbye as Thranduil's magical carriage departed, then returned to her office on the third floor of the church, surrounded by maids.

Sitting on the sofa, Roland finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Phew... finally, this big problem is solved."

"My dear Miss Roland, what big trouble have you sorted out?"

"Holy crap, who's under the table?!"

Luo was so frightened that she jumped up and leaned over the table to look down, following the sound.

An uninvited guest had somehow appeared hidden inside the large, heavy desk.

The gloomy and oppressive goddess Vina was sitting on the floor in an ungraceful posture, her voluptuous figure shrouded in her long robe, creating a shockingly alluring curve.

Looking at the view beneath Roland's skirt, a lewd smile gradually crept onto her lips, making Roland feel uneasy.

"Vina... Vina, what happened to you under the table?"

"Hmm, I was on guard against that little elf getting rough with you, but seeing that you resolved it peacefully, I'll rest here."

Vina chuckled softly, then looked up and met Roland's gaze intently.

"Miss Roland, you still haven't answered my question. How exactly did you sever ties with Serafie and persuade the young saintess of the Church of Light?"

"Um... this."

Roland couldn't reveal the existence of the system, but she couldn't think of a good excuse for the moment, so her tone was a little hesitant.

"My relationship with Seraf is completely innocent; isn't it normal for me to be cleared of suspicion?"

"That's a lie."

Vina said firmly, pouting.

"The people of the Church of Light are not so easily fooled."

"Unless... you can prove your devotion to the church deities."

"For example, you can offer faith to the Goddess of Light, am I right?"

The Goddess of Light was sent long ago, but she's tied up and squealing like a sow, and I still have to feed her faith points every day.

Roland thought to herself, but her face unconsciously showed a look of surprise.

This tiny flaw immediately confirmed Vina's suspicions.

Logically speaking, since Roland has already been branded with a collar, which is equivalent to being locked up like a private carriage, it is impossible for her to pass the piety test of the Church of Light.

But Klaus succeeded.

That's amazing! Miss Roland is truly amazing.

It's like a mine full of gems; no matter how you dig, you can always find even more magnificent gems.

Vina's curiosity surged like wildfire, and she couldn't contain her excitement.

"Well, Miss Roland, you really do have a secret you're keeping from me."

"Hurry up and share with me, otherwise I'll try to pry your little mouth open~" Roland's expression changed drastically, thinking that Vina was about to use some evil magic, and she immediately pointed to her own neck.

Beneath the smooth skin of her neck lay the brand of Vina's collar.

"Vina, what are you planning now?"

"I'm warning you, don't do anything reckless, or you'll lose favor with them, you know that?!"

Vina remained unmoved, a lewd smile spreading across her lips, like a villainous pervert, as she wiggled her fingers and grabbed Roland's thigh.

The friction between skin and stockings created a soft, rustling sound in the office.

"Hehehe, Miss Roland, you're quite stubborn."

"As for whether the favorability will drop, I'll only know after I try."

……

"Oh my god, which mouth did you pry open?!"

"Oh my god, where did you learn that trick?"

"I learned it from the books published by Caryl."

"You... you... you stop right now! Don't you have any self-respect as a goddess?!"

"Oh my gosh~~~~" ……

After a while, the noise in the office gradually subsided.

In the end, Roland was the better one. With her strong will, her pearly toes gripped the soles of her shoes, and her little mouth remained completely silent.

Vina looked at Roland's sweaty appearance and sighed slightly at the foxy, pungent scent emanating from her.

"Okay, it's fine if you don't want to say anything. After all, we haven't known each other for very long."

"Feelings can develop over time. I'll wait for you to tell me on your own later."

"Consider what happened just now as repayment for your kindness. That's how Kalil likes to write her breeding manuals."

Roland took a couple of breaths and looked blankly at Vina under the table.

"To repay a debt of gratitude?"

"yes."

Vina slightly distanced herself, a beautiful smile curving her lips as she looked up at Roland like a little animal, her demeanor unusually docile and obedient.

Although her messy bangs obscured Vina's beautiful eyes, her charm remained undiminished.

Looking at Vina, who was so different from usual, and remembering the argument between the two of them just now, Roland turned her head away shyly.

"What kind of gratitude is this...?"

Seeing Roland's shy expression, Vina smiled even more and licked her glistening lips with her tongue.

"Of course, it's because you've provided me with a great deal of faith."

"The efficiency of our collection has increased almost fivefold during this period, and I'm very grateful to you."

"Therefore, I must repay your kindness."
