Chapter 450 Laeticia's Love-Brain Is Hopeless
"At this point, you still haven't realized how stupid you are. Do you really have the right to negotiate terms with me now?"
A disdainful smile appeared on Hakuto's face. This man before him was simply stupid. So stupid that it was almost laughable.
Camaron looked at Hakuto. "I am Charlotte's father. You can't treat me like this."
The Camaron before him had realized what Hakuto wanted to do. Fear in his eyes, he shouted at Hakuto. But Hakuto showed no expression. He looked at Camaron with malicious intent.
"It seems you've already realized what I'm going to do next. I never like asking a question more than once. Since you're unwilling to talk, I'll have to find a way to make you talk."
A scalpel appeared in Hakuto's hand.
"Don't worry. I have experience. I've personally skinned people before. Practice makes perfect, so it should be no problem this time."
"I'll talk! Spare me! I'll tell you everything!"
Camaron had already wet himself from fear. Seeing Hakuto holding the scalpel, his heart was filled with terror.
"Alright. This is your last chance. Now tell me where the Legendary Cooking Utensil is. Of course, you're very welcome not to, because that way I'll have a reason to practice again. I will completely peel off your skin."
"In the Louvre. The Legendary Cooking Utensil is in the Louvre."
"I've already searched the Louvre and didn't find it at all. So you're lying to me? I never like being deceived."
"It really is in the Louvre. It's just that the Legendary Cooking Utensil is directly buried beneath the Louvre. To get it, you have to demolish the entire Louvre. It's under the Louvre's foundation."
Hearing this, Hakuto put away the scalpel. "I hope you're telling the truth. Otherwise, I won't mind using this scalpel on you."
After speaking, Hakuto left. Camaron's entire body went limp, as if he had collapsed.
After leaving, Hakuto went to the Louvre.
"Why did you call me here?"
Laeticia asked Hakuto. He said to her, "To give you an opportunity to win people's hearts. I'm going to demolish the Louvre. So I can play the villain. And you, the patriotic saintess, can step up to protect the people. Even if you fail, you'll still gain a lot of prestige."
"Are you joking?"
"Do as I say. You can choose not to accept, but I won't change my actions because of your choice."
Laeticia bit her lower lip hard as she looked at Hakuto.
"If this is your request, then I will become your enemy, your opponent."
"How interesting. Let me see just how far the power of Saintess Jeanne D'Arc can go."
The sky turned overcast. Then, a huge figure appeared in the sky.
"Cthulhu."
At Hakuto's call, Cthulhu appeared. Seeing this familiar figure, an indescribable fear appeared in Laeticia's eyes. This fear made her feel an urge to run away.
Laeticia dared not face this fear. The scene of Vatican City being erased appeared once again in her mind.
"If you can't eliminate your fear, then this is all you will ever amount to."
Standing on Cthulhu's palm, Hakuto looked down at Laeticia. Her body trembled. Light gradually gathered, but then suddenly scattered. Then Laeticia spoke. "Let me do it myself, Jeanne. I can do it. I can overcome this fear."
Armor appeared on Laeticia's body. Hakuto looked at her with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
"Then come. If your strength doesn't satisfy me, then it won't just be the Louvre that gets destroyed, but all of Paris."
Hearing this, Laeticia's pupils instantly contracted.
"You bastard. What are you doing?"
"Trying to make you stronger. If you're too weak, it'll be too boring."
"Understood. No matter the reason, I will do my best to stop you."
"Then let's give it a try."
With his hands in his pockets, Hakuto stood on Cthulhu's palm. He looked like a complete villain. A look of determination appeared in Laeticia's eyes.
"Then get ready."
At Hakuto's words, Cthulhu raised a hand. Then, that hand suddenly slammed down.
"Luminosité Eternelle!"
A barrier instantly enveloped all of Paris.
The entire Louvre was instantly reduced to rubble under this hand. Then, this hand was like a bulldozer, scooping into the ground. A Legendary Cooking Utensil was dug out of the ruins by Hakuto.
Hakuto glanced at Laeticia, then turned and left.
Watching Hakuto leave, Laeticia was a bit confused, 'Was that it?'
Hakuto didn't bother with her. He just left.
Laeticia's face was full of confusion. Jeanne D'Arc's voice sounded in her heart. "If nothing unexpected happened, the reason he did this was to make you face your fear directly and then overcome it."
Hearing this, a sudden joy arose in Laeticia's heart. "So Hakuto cares about me. Because he cares about me, he wanted me to face my fear and overcome it. It must be like that. It must definitely be like that. That's right."
Hearing Laeticia's words, Jeanne D'Arc felt speechless, 'This girl's love-brain was hopeless.'
"Laeticia, I think you should think carefully. Hakuto probably doesn't even like you. This might just be a casual act."
"Impossible. Hakuto must like me. If he didn't, why would he go to so much trouble to help me?"
'Go to so much trouble? Dear girl, which of your eyes saw him going to so much trouble to help you? This was just a casual act on his part, okay?'
