Hughbert's hand clenched a little tighter on the cat owner, as if asking how things had come to be.

The cat boss's gaze flickered away.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

For over a month, Lance and Sigrid were truly inseparable. On their journey to the northern border, Sigrid protected Lance, while on their return to Helrom, Lance protected Sigrid. During their long escape, they even took turns keeping watch throughout the night, rarely ever being apart.

But it didn't dare tell Huberlian about the story of how Ranchi went north.

"Hubert still only seems to know about Lynch's achievements in academia and politics, but not his accomplishments in the Church—which are also the most crucial things Lynch has accomplished in the Protoss Empire."

He's not only hooked up with the Asksand, the Obliterator Bishop, but his relationship with Sigrid, the current Hegemon, is also a little complicated.

The more the cat owner thought about it, the more he felt that his real crime hadn't been discovered by Xiaobao. Under the torment of his conscience, he simply ran to hide under the sofa in a distant corner and trembled.

And it felt like West Germany just said that on purpose!

She just wanted to tell Huberlyne about the relationship between her and Lanche.

"...."

Then Hubert could only look at Lance.

And Sigrid too was watching Lance's reaction with furtive glances.

She had an impression of this noble young lady from Milford, having met her that day at the rocky junction station on Box Hill when she was stopped by a branch of the Obliterators.

However, this countess seemed not to have recognized that the forlorn saint and the female prisoner she had met at the station were the same two people.

Siegfried didn't know why the Holy Son went out to accept an interview, and he met this young girl again, even bringing her back.

But Siegfried, glancing at the black kitten in Huberlian's hand, probably understood.

Her intuition was right. The Saint's attention to this countess was far greater than that of other women.

If this particularly timid black cat is willing to get close to Miss Countess, it suggests her true identity should be a companion of the Saint in the Southern Continent.

The gears of the grandfather clock in the living room clicked twice, making any sound seem especially clear at that moment.

Gloria swallowed nervously. She felt something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Lance finally sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.

"She and I narrowly escaped death several times on our journey north, at the hands of the Devouring Branch. It wasn't until today that we finally managed to get away."

He explained that, like the fatigue of this period had gathered on his brows.

"…"

Huberly was stunned.

She knew all too well how dangerous the north was, for she had herself only just escaped the clutches of the Desolation Branch and arrived in the Imperial City.

"So that's how it is."

Hyberlian murmured, then looked at Lance with concern.

No wonder Lance and this woman spend every day together, and why Lance trusts her so much.

She didn't know what Ranch had gone through this past month, to the point where even Ranch felt like his life was on the line.

Siegfried lightly smacked her lips, feeling annoyed that Lance had brushed her off so casually.

But when he thought back to the time they had relied on each other along the way, and how he had cared for her, he lost his motivation to trouble him anymore.

After some thought, as a loyal subject of the Saint, I should be more magnanimous. I've been playing the role of West Germany for too long recently, and some of the ways of thinking of young girls have unconsciously become habits.

"You've worked hard."

Sieglinde rose from the sofa and stopped before Lance, meeting his gaze and praising him.

She then looked at Huberlian.

"My name is Sid Noviak, and I'm currently a companion of Lucky McCarthy. Welcome to our humble abode."

Siegfried, like a gentleman, extended his hand to Huberlian with elegance.

"Millian Milford."

Hubert clasped his own name, gripping Sigrid's soft hand.

She observed the girl for a moment, thinking that since she was trusted so much by Lance and even entrusted with his life, she couldn't be a bad person.

Hubert just felt that Sigrid was emphasizing the host-guest dynamic a bit too much.

"So it seems, you have secured the votes for Milford's territory and part of the Northwest Province for us"

Sigrid released Huberlian's hand and looked back at Lance, her voice laced with amusement.

Since Lynch would bring Miss Miliam Milford here, it means she's already been pulled into the fold.

Before she regained her strength, Sigrid didn't intend to tell anyone about being a cardinal. She also believed Lance wouldn't tell anyone the secret.

For candidates recommended by the Son of God, she will provide a generous starting package.

Although Miss Millian Milford didn't yet know that the man standing before her was none other than the Pope himself, shaking his hand was essentially an act of paying homage.

"

Miss West, what do the ballots mean…

"

Huberly asked in puzzlement.

Do they want to manipulate the votes so that a certain cardinal wins

However, Siegfried believed he could make Huberlian understand soon. He looked at Gloriana, who stood by like a waiting attendant.

"Gloria, how many more papal bull seals do you have here"

Siegfried asked.

"Yes."

Gloria nodded; Siegfried had stored a lot of things here before.

Gloria needs to act as a subordinate soldier in front of other high priests, naturally using the identity of a subordinate soldier. She also has Sigrid's extra high priest seal, which allows her to become a public member of the church.

The next second, when Huberlian noticed Glorian taking out the purple Skybreaker Seal, his pupils shrank instantly.

She immediately grabbed Ranchi's arm and tried to drag him out of the mansion!

"…"

Before Lance could finish his words, his hand was grasped by Huberlian, and a figure even faster than him had already taken a step forward.

Hyberlia's wrist was held fast by Sieglinde's grip.

The moment Siegfried saw Huberlian encounter Lance, his eyes had changed completely.

Huperlyan glared at Sigrid with utmost suspicion.

She found that this woman seemed to be a fifth rank just like herself.

Although Mingming's strength was already considered quite formidable among those of the same level, she actually found herself struggling when she was caught by her.

Now they are all within the school's safe zone. Anyone who attacks will be immediately suppressed by the barrier, and any harm will also be isolated by it.

It's clear that this woman from West Germany hasn't given it her all yet.

"Let go."

Siegfried said in a commanding tone.

"Absolutely not."

After realizing that Sigrid was a member of the Resurrection Church, Huberlian's eyes were filled with unconquerable hostility.

"......!"

The cat boss trembled under the sofa, watching this hellish scene.

On the left, Huberly turned her back on it, leaving in a manner that seemed to want to drag Lance away from this place.

On the right, Lancer was stunned and found his arm being taken by Huberly.

And Siegfried stood between them, his hand clamping onto Huberlyan's wrist with a cold, grim expression.

Even though the three of them haven't had any romantic conflicts yet, they are already ready to come to blows!
