Chapter 219: The Woman


Do we know each other?

Sonya blinked and leaned in for a closer look, but quickly pulled back, “You introduce it, I’m too pure to understand.”

The recording mode of the Sorcerer Handbook is a mission log, which shows that its owner must be an organized sorcerer who likes to set small goals and is very good at striving. Every major event in their life is recorded as a mission, complete with summaries and reflections—an exemplary worker indeed.

Let’s call them the ‘Mission Sorcerer’.

“Mission Name: ‘Seed of Cataclysm Campaign’, Importance: ★★★★★”

“Mission Objective: To become the Seed of Cataclysm”

“Mission Restriction: Only temple sorcerers who become Two Wings within three years are eligible.”

“Mission Reward: Becoming the Seed of Cataclysm and earning the chance to enter the Spiral of Silence. Note, without exception, every Seed of Cataclysm emerging from the Spiral of Silence has become a Tri-wings and ascended to the upper echelons of the Temple.”

“Mission Failure: Loss of the opportunity to become the Seed of Cataclysm. Barring any accidents, the highest future position can only be that of Assistant Priest at the Temple.”

“Mission Process: With the rise of the Spiral of Silence, the quinquennial selection for the Seed of Cataclysm quietly commenced.”

“There are two other candidates with the same qualifications as me: that woman and Frank. Frank is older and more experienced, beloved by the followers, making him the strongest contender; the woman is too young, but she exposed her boyfriend for hoarding spoils of war, proving her loyalty to the cause of cataclysm, and she ascended to a Two Wings within a year—an opponent not to be underestimated.”

“Frank, the leader of the Silver Flame Knights, increased the raid frequency to garner more votes and successfully captured the dragon-wind Castle, bringing more followers and funds to the Temple. He enjoys immense prestige among the people and the clerics, like the dazzling and intense midday sun in the desert.”

“As for me, the vice-leader of the Discipline Priest Squad, I decided to increase patrol frequency and harshly punish the outlaws in the area to gain recognition from the followers and the high priests.”Read latest chapters on novelbin(.)com

Compared to the prominent positions we held, that woman was merely an ordinary nun in the missionary group, powerless and without influence, with nothing but her beauty to speak of. She should have been the first to be eliminated, barring any unexpected developments.

“In contrast, that woman had been silently working, staying out of arguments and discussions, faithfully fulfilling her duties, and her beauty gradually earned her the admiration of many.”

“The sun is too scorching to tolerate any flaws; the night too dark to invite approach. Only the water of Crescent Spring is sweet and liked by all.”

“I seemed to understand something, but it was already too late.”

“Mission outcome: Failure.”

“Reflection and summary: Don’t trust women, especially beautiful ones.”

Sonya reacted halfway through: “The ‘that woman’ mentioned here, could it be the ‘her’ referred to in ‘that Sorcerer Handbook’ we came across earlier?”

Although Sonya’s comment was abrupt, Ashe understood.

He gave Deya a brief explanation of the background—the reason Ashe and his companion remembered this character was because the Whirlpool Secret Poison came from “that Sorcerer Handbook,” which had left a deep impression on them. After all, the Whirlpool Secret Poison was a turning point in their Exploration in Virtual Realm, much like a new energy fund climbing steadily.

In that handbook, the owner had finally made an eternal Contract with ‘her,’ entrusting her with the maze toy that contained information on the Whirlpool Secret Poison.



But as soon as ‘she’ used the Whirlpool Secret Poison for her Promotion to the rank of Two Wings, ‘she’ immediately betrayed the owner of the handbook to the Temple in exchange for wealth and honor.

And the owner of the handbook never betrayed ‘her’ until the end, a deep affection wasted like water flowing away.

“It’s very likely. Becoming a Two Wings Sorcerer within a year, reporting a boyfriend for hoarding spoils of war, and the Temple of Cataclysmic Fire... all the details match.”

Ashe crossed his arms and furrowed his brows: “The other Handbook is understandable since the entire text refers to either ‘I’ or ‘her’, with no real need to record names specifically. But why does the Mission Sorcerer in this Handbook not record her name and instead use ‘that woman’ to refer to her? After all, Frank is mentioned by name directly.”
