Chapter 485 - 331: Moon Goddess? (3)
In the Confession Room behind him, Qin Chu was taken aback by what he heard.
To be fair, Augustus was the most cunning and difficult to deal with among these people.
He was very powerful, meticulous, and had even noticed Angelica’s assignment to be on the lookout for inner palace activities.
Augustus’s deductions about the Hero were quite reasonable, even though they were only partly the cause; indeed, Qin Chu had considered such things.
But what surprised Qin Chu even more was the situation with Rose Vesper.
That woman, truly ruthless.
Silf, Asina, and Catherine hadn’t brought back any intelligence indicating Rose Vesper was preparing to make a move against him. Thus, there could only be one possibility: the news about uniting everyone to conspire against the Hero was merely a smokescreen let out by Rose Vesper on purpose.
Despite Rose Vesper’s actions being very covert for some time, concealing them from Augustus, the old fox, was virtually impossible.
This seemingly pure and innocent Holy Daughter intelligently accounted for this and decided that since she couldn’t deceive Augustus, she might as well divert his attention elsewhere.
She deliberately exposed to Augustus her plan to assassinate the Second Generation Brave Warrior and resurrect the First Generation Brave, utilizing her affection for Jie Luo to leave him completely unsuspecting, entirely unaware that her recent schemes were all directed at him.
Even if the resurrection of Jie Luo came to light later, Rose Vesper could easily claim it was a rumour spread by someone unknown, a slander.
