Chapter 982 - Aiding Troops (2/2)
Ye Cang got up from the sofa and entered into his Sanzang mode. He cunningly put on a kind expression and sat with crossed legs. “I’ve recovered my memories… So, I see…”
Gently, he hopped down from the sofa, got Shaluss up and smiled. “No worries, I’ll save this place because well… that’s my duty…”
Ye Cang then turned one crystal into water above Shaluss, letting it flow down his head as if it was a baptism ceremony. Shaluss’ eyes were glowing with sincerity, “You are indeed the true god of Iskafanda… Thank you for baptizing me…”
Shaluss prayed to him again and got up after Ye Cang asked him to. Makarlo, Agaloss and the others were speechless. Great Sage! How can you tell such a lie?! Won’t you feel bad? Yet, Ye Cang turned around and looked at them with a smile, signalling them to keep their mouth shut. All the elders gasped.
Shacily Muse whispered to Makarlo since he was one of the elders who followed the mayor long before the rest. “If I were to tell the mayor that I would want to go back to my hometown…do you think he will agree?”
Makarlo glanced at her from top to bottom. “Hmm…you can try, maybe he would release you. But on what terms and conditions, I can’t guarantee…”
Makarlo’s words sank Shacily Muse’s heart and she quickly got into her secretary role when Ye Cang returned.
Makarlo then smiled, “Just now, Shacily Muse told me that she wants to return to her home on the island. She asked if you would let her go. I’ve already given my advice.”
Ye Cang looked at Shacily Muse, “Seriously?”
Seeing Ye Cang examining her in a serious manner, Shacily Muse swallowed while Ye Cang smiled. “Looks like fate has come to an end. The Goddess Association will never force anyone to stay. Lil’Sha, if you really want to leave, just leave… But you must forever remember that you’re a member of the Goddess Association. Hence, a mark must be done so it could glow forever… Agaloss, make a fire…”
Finding to his horror that Ye Cang was already taking out an iron stamp with the engravement ‘I am a member of the Goddess Association’ and burning it in blue flames. “Actually…I…was…just…joking…”
“Agaloss, where do you think I should leave this stamp?”
“On the face. That’d be more outstanding.”
“Makarlo, what about you?”
“On the forehead?”
“Lord Bearbear, I allow you to voice out…”
“On the breasts…one stamp on each…”
“Hmm…not a bad idea. Didn’t expect Lord Bearbear to have such interesting suggestions. Not bad. It doesn’t affect her appearance and can even be covered… Come Lil’Sha…get into my tent.” Ye Cang smiled, grabbing Shacily Muse’s hand and the searing iron on the other hand.
“I…I swear to keep my loyalty to the Goddess Association and Goddess Aymuss! With no intention of leaving!” Shacily Muse half-kneeled and Ye Cang asked, “Loyal to who? I think you missed out the most important person, did you?”
“And be loyal to the Great Sage!” Shacily Muse quickly shouted for the sake of her life.
“Elder Shacily is such an understanding person. She is the role model of the Goddess Association…” Ye Cang kept away the iron and Maru Naya wiped away her sweat. Luckily I knew who the true owner of the shrine is, way before them…
Shacily Muse glared at Makarlo, Agaloss and the rest. I can’t believe I would actually believe the believers of other goddesses. I will make them pay…
