Chapter 471 - 317: The Identity of Saint Monica (4)
Qin Chu’s expression was strange.
He wasn’t surprised that Saint Monica wanted to kill him, but he had believed that it would only happen after he became a threat to Saint Monica, Wozworth, and Augustus, leading the three old men to join forces with members of the Hero Team to take action against him.
Yet, from Asina’s memories, it appeared that Saint Monica had already been preparing to kill him shortly after he arrived in this world, before he had shown any sign of being a threat?
Qin Chu felt that Saint Monica’s eagerness was somewhat abnormal. He steadied his consciousness and continued to observe Asina’s memories, where he could not only access her recollections but even perceive her emotions at the time.
In the memory, Asina’s brows were tightly knit. She didn’t feel disgust towards the task of killing Qin Chu, but she was curious about why Saint Monica wanted to kill him.
"Why kill Qin Chu?" Asina raised an eyebrow, twirling a strand of hair beside her ear with a slender finger. She was somewhat resistant to the order since, according to the Hero Team’s plans, it wasn’t yet time for Qin Chu to die.
At that moment, Asina was brimming with confidence, and her voluptuous figure imbued every movement with an enticing charm.
"Qin Chu is the Hero, shouldn’t he be the hope of Sky Dome Continent? Who will help us fight against demons if we kill Qin Chu?" Asina inquired, "Your Highness Saint Monica, surely you don’t believe you can confront the Demon King yourself?"
"The matter of combating demons is not for you to worry about. There will be a strength more powerful than the Hero to help us eradicate those filthy beings," Saint Monica replied with a cold smile at the corner of her mouth and a slight hint of madness in her voice.
Asina’s eyes narrowed into slits, "Why me?"
"Because you are a member of the Hero Team and you spend your days with Qin Chu. It would be most convenient for you to do it," Saint Monica said forthrightly.
