Chapter 941: The Gods' Play?
Lorraine snorted.
"Do you mean that my hair will fall out like yours?"
Camela's eyes narrowed.
"Your bad attitude and tasteless jokes are just to hide the panic in your heart."
Lorraine laughed dryly.
"Did your god tell you this too?"
Camela shook her head decisively.
"No!
" This is the conclusion I came to after my own observation.
"To be honest, I like people like you. You're secretive and not honest enough.
"Because you are too afraid of losing anything, you simply wrap yourself in layers of camouflage."
"On the surface, you look like you are living a carefree life, but in fact, you are a coward who doesn't even dare to say the truth or admit it.
" However, you've done a great job in practising the Legendary Path. As a Deceiving Demigod, you must have successfully deceived yourself and carried out your own pursuit."
Matthew shook his head.
Lorraine was naturally not a pushover, but Camela was not a pushover either.
The red-robed priest's words made Lorraine's expression change.
Matthew had thought that Lorraine and Camela's relationship would develop into what he and Richard had.
However, in the next second.
Lorraine, whose face was ashen, suddenly smiled in relief.
"You're right. It seems that the god behind you is indeed capable.
" But everyone has their own way of life. It's shameful to escape, but it's useful. If being a coward can make me live a happier life, then why not?
" After all, isn't it a kind of self-deception to believe in religion and place your hopes on the greatness, mercy, and kindness of others?
"I can feel that you and I are actually the same kind of people."
Camela frowned.
But this time, she didn't retort. She only said indifferently,
" You don't understand the greatness of the God of the First Moon, so you naturally don't understand where my faith comes from.
"But you're right about one thing. There are indeed similarities between us. I might also be an escapist, although I don't remember it now."
A hint of melancholy flashed in Camela's eyes.
" I often wonder why there are so many brothers and sisters in the church-people who are more outstanding than me, more devout than me, and more talented than me…But why am I the only one alive?
" Is there a possibility that a great disaster happened in our country before I fell into a deep sleep? Everyone died in the face of that disaster, but I chose to live in disgrace, and only then did I revive in this era.
" I can't rule out this possibility. There's even a premonition in the depths of my heart that I'm able to come to this world not because I'm special but because of something else."
Her tone was downcast.
Matthew could actually understand Camela's feelings. It had been tens of millions of years since he woke up, and the companions who had fought side by side had disappeared. Even his own memories were incomplete.
Under such circumstances, it was inevitable that he would be disappointed.
He seemed to have sensed Camela's low mood.
Loraine's aggressiveness was also greatly reduced.
He looked at Camela subtly.
"You don't belong to the main world?"
Camela nodded.
" I come from a period of history that almost no one knows about. I want to find the ancient aura because I want to find evidence that I once existed."
Lorraine rubbed his chin, his eyes shining.
" You're not the only one who doesn't belong to this world. There's no need to feel so lonely."
Matthew's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that Lorraine also knew about his origins?
But Camela quickly changed the topic.
"Let's not talk about this nonsense. Let's sign the contract first."
Lorraine agreed.
Matthew took out the contract and prepared it. Then, he looked at the two of them in surprise.
"So you guys have already acknowledged each other?"
The two of them said in unison,
"Still far from it!"
However, this did not prevent them from signing their names on the alliance contract drawn up by Matthew.
Along with the sound of the quill pen swishing.
The smell of the magic potion spread throughout the room.
The effectiveness of the contract was also rapidly taking shape!
[Hint: You have signed an underground alliance contract with Lorraine and Camela.]
From now on, on the journey to find the ancient aura, the three of you will see each other as allies. You will always help each other and not harm each other.
If there is a breach of contract.
They would suffer the backlash of the power of the contract based on the breach of contract. At the very least, they would lose the right to enter the tomb forever. At the very least, they would forever become the target of the Eternal Order Demons.
The members of the Underground Alliance were generally informed of each other's situation.
[Lorraine: Level 20 Bard, Level 2 Dusk Chanter, Deceiving Demigod]
[Camela: Level 20 Priest & Level 3 First Moon's Blessed]
[Matthew: Level-16 Necromancer]
Since the contract was drawn up by Matthew himself, this publicity segment was also added after careful consideration.
Based on his understanding of the contract domain.
The more allies knew each other, the more efficient the contract would be.
However, once the results were announced.
Matthew suddenly felt a little awkward.
Two Legendary masters bringing a Level 4 little brother?
It seemed like he was going to do nothing this time.
"Your level is higher than mine?!"
Lorraine looked at Camela in surprise.
Camela was very calm.
"Level isn't everything. Besides, I've lived for so long and have the blessing of the God of the First Moon. Isn't it normal for my level to be higher?"
