"When will the new card pack be released? I really want a Dr. Bang Bang. "Replied by: Nun Sktan.
Cheryl nibbled on an apple as she replied to the post about the new card pack for Gnomes vs Gnomes.
It was late at night, and she was sitting in the Gray Cloak's wizard tower.
Her life had basically settled down in the few days since she came to Noland. The owner of this wizard tower, the Gray Cloak, rarely returned to the tower.
Even if he returned to the Mage Tower, he wouldn't stop to talk to Shirley and Dinessa who were residing in the Mage Tower.
Cheryl and the Gray Cloak always conversed through the spellcaster forum.
"Aren't you going to sleep, Cheryl?"
Dinessa, who was wearing pajamas and holding a lamp engraved with an illumination spell, walked through the darkness and arrived in front of Cheryl's desk.
An owl was perched on Dinessa's shoulder, staring at Cheryl with its pair of eyes and cooing.
Other than the two of them and the Gray Cloak, there was also an entire owl family in this wizard tower.
Dinessa seemed to be very fond of these birds. In a few days, the nun had become familiar with these owls.
"Um … I still have some private matters to attend to …"
Cheryl glanced at the old diary on the desk. Since she had been staying in the Hearthstone Tavern during the day, the Heretic Inquisitor Diary would only be updated at night.
In comparison, Dinessa was much more diligent. She stayed in the wizard tower to take care of the owls, tidy up some scattered books, and buy ingredients from the market to make delicious dishes. She would only go to the church occasionally for worship.
Cheryl was a hundred percent sure that Dinessa would become a good wife in the future. Any man who married her would be envied by countless people, and she had a great figure.
"Private matter … Cheryl, actually … I had a nightmare today."
Dinessa placed the lamp on the desk and sat beside Cheryl. She clenched her fists, and anxiety could be seen in her eyes.
"We defected from the church and became traitors. In my nightmare, I can always hear whispers ringing in my ears. Maybe it's the gods condemning me."
As expected, there were already negative reactions?
Having been a judge for so many years, Shirley knew that there were conditions for those crazy whispers to appear. The kinder a person was, the calmer and purer they were, the harder it was for them to hear those crazy whispers after becoming a judge.
However, this was impossible. The Inquisitor of Heresy was a dirty profession. Every Inquisitor would personally take the lives of some heretics, cut off their heads, and send the relatives of those heretics to the execution platform to be burned to ashes.
After experiencing all of this, any normal person would find it difficult to maintain their inner peace and be affected by a large amount of negative emotions.
And it was precisely these negative emotions that allowed the whispers to take advantage of …
"Dinessa! Look at me! "
Cheryl gently cupped the nun's cheeks. There was not a trace of impurity in Dinessa's azure eyes, as if she was a newborn baby.
"The Church doesn't represent the God you believe in. The Church is just a servant of the God of Holy Light. You have no reason to blame yourself for betraying the God's servant, and the God won't condemn you," Cheryl said.
"But …"
Dinessa had indeed heard a lot of voices that made her uncomfortable. Although these voices would disappear when she played some games on the Spellcaster forum, she heard those irrational whispers again when she was sleeping today.
"Don't speak."
Cheryl gently covered Dinessa's mouth. She turned around and looked out of the window. The owl on the beam also stopped cooing.
The surroundings became extremely quiet. Only the faint sound of the magic circle protecting the Spellcaster Tower could be heard, but Cheryl felt …
The Inquisitors and Inquisitors would always attract each other.
Cheryl sensed that a group of powerful Inquisitors had appeared in Nolan, and they were near the church.
"Listen to me, Dinessa. Don't go to the church for a few days."
Cheryl grabbed Dinessa's hand and brought her to Dinessa's bedside.
The reason Dinessa was having nightmares was probably because she felt the presence of other Inquisitors, even though she didn't notice it herself.
"If you're afraid and have nightmares, isn't there a broadcast on the Magic Net called the Voice of Noland?"
"The Voice of Noland?"
Under Cheryl's guidance, Dinessa turned on the Voice of Noland.
The distant and tranquil singing entered Dinessa's ears, instantly soothing her worries.
"This is the Saintess … No …"
Dinessa felt that she had heard this familiar voice somewhere before, but the lullaby from the Frost Elves was very effective. Dinessa started to feel sleepy after listening to it for a few minutes.
Cheryl stayed by the nun's bedside. When she was completely asleep, a private message suddenly popped up on Cheryl's Magic Net.
"Please come to the Hearthstone Tavern — The Flame Bearer."
Ever since Cheryl and Josiah made a secret agreement, Cheryl knew the Chaos Demon's ID on the Spellcaster forum.
The demon suddenly invited her to the Hearthstone Tavern in the middle of the night?
Could it be that he was finally enlightened and had awakened his hobby of liking young women …
Cheryl was more willing to believe that it was because of the Inquisitors that appeared in the church.
Since she had betrayed the church, the Inquisitors would never let her go. Cheryl believed that if the Inquisitors' target was Josiah, they would turn to her after killing Josiah.
Cheryl confirmed that Dinessa was sleeping soundly on the bed. She gently caressed Dinessa's forehead and stood up from the bed.
From the day she betrayed the church, Cheryl knew that she couldn't avoid being hunted down by the church.
The Chaos Demon must have invited her to the Hearthstone Tavern to participate in the battle against the Inquisitors as an assassin.
According to Cheryl's observations in the Hearthstone Tavern, although Josiah was a terrifying Chaos Demon, he didn't have any subordinates that could fight.
Facing more than ten Nephilic Judges, or even two or three Presiding Judges, it was impossible for the Chaos Demon to defeat them all by itself.
Even with Cheryl's help, they wouldn't be able to win.
That was why Cheryl went to the Hearthstone Tavern with the determination to die. Perhaps … she should apologize to the readers who were reading the Diary of the Heretic Inquisitor before she left?
In any case, she definitely wouldn't be able to write a new chapter tonight. After issuing an apology on the Spellcaster forum, she began to search for weapons in the Wizard Tower to arm herself.
