The night before Judgment Day.

Bai Ye was extremely bored and looked through a lot of memories that he had not yet digested.

These few days have been too quiet, not as...

Bai Ye's original idea was that at least one party in the city would be unable to sit still and come to visit. In fact, under the pretext of visiting, they would either change their next plan or kill themselves directly...

It seems that the guys in the church are more patient than expected.

But no matter what, it's time tonight... After all, this is the last chance to make some adjustments before the trial begins.

To be honest, Bai Ye was looking forward to seeing the church's methods...

With the attitude of communication and learning...

Just as Bai Ye was imagining how the church would appear before him and how it would act...

There was a rustling sound outside the prison door.

鏉ヤ 钖楋纻

First, the anti-magic runes around the cell failed, and then two dark shadows drilled in through the gap in the cell door.

What?.....Not the person I'm waiting for...

Soon, the shadow escape ended, and two figures appeared in front of Bai Ye.

"Master..."

Wu Yue greeted.

The other one is, of course, Karen.

"It's been a long time since we last met. The last time we worked together, you were still Wu Yue..."

"Wu Yue, why did you bring her here?"

"I'm sorry, Master, Teacher Karen wants to see you..."

"Well... you could come earlier... we have an important guest tonight..."

"The church? I know, so I'm here to see you for them and pave the way for them."

Karen looked confident.

"Oh? What do you say?"

"If the church people come to look for you in the name of visiting or testifying, the dwarves will definitely follow you closely... That would be inconvenient..."

"So when I came here, I played a little trick on the guards. This way, the scum of the church could enter smoothly."

"That makes sense. You really care about them..."

"Just think of it as a compliment. Ultimately, it's all for your plan to succeed. But is it worth it for you to go to such great lengths to prevent a local war?"

"Whether it's worth it... I'm too lazy to think about it. The most important thing is Wu Yue's wish. She wants to prevent the war from breaking out here, so I will help her."

Bai Ye looked at Wu Yue and said.

"Master..."

"What a good teacher, better than me."

Karen stood aside with his arms folded, looking at the two of them with a half-smile, which made Wu Yue blush.

"Let's get down to business. Are you going to expose the church during the trial? It's difficult to discredit the church, but that's for ordinary people. As for a shadow who can transform into someone else at any time and has almost no flaws, this is something only he can do."

"Let me give you the latest information... The thorn planted by the Church in the delegation this time is Albert Medici, a loser from the Pope's family who used his connections to get to the top. He's actually not that difficult to deal with. At most, he's a little... vindictive? Maybe he's a little... vicious? I believe you can handle all of this."

"This guy has been losing a lot of hair recently, and he's been running around in his room all day. I guess he never thought that he would end up in this situation where he has no one to use..."

"After you are arrested, this guy will probably take corresponding actions, such as threats, silencing, and colluding with others. There are many ways... But based on my understanding of the church, he is most likely to take some... more extreme methods. Let me think, if he wants to threaten you... disguised threats are most likely, such as using the Pope to pressure you. Oh, yes... 'faith', faith... they like this the most."

"Don't worry, the owner of this body has no faith, and neither do I..."

"But I think the most likely scenario is to silence him... Don't you think so?"

"Unfortunately, he can't silence someone."

"It's impossible, but your plan won't achieve the desired effect."

"so......"

"So I have to go along with him...to prevent him from silencing me. I want him to believe that the church can clear itself of all charges in this trial, and perhaps even ruin Yingsi's reputation."

"Yes, not only that, I may need you to cooperate with me when necessary."

Karen changed the subject and said.

"What can I do to cooperate with you?"

"Do you know what is the most important skill to master in order to inherit the body of Shadow Heir?"

"acting......"

Ok…it’s acting again…

......

Karen told Bai Ye exactly how to act out the performance.

"how?"

"The script is good, but the actors are acting so hard that they are almost sick of it..."

"But it's useful, isn't it?"

"Okay, let's act it out."

Bai Ye finally agreed. After all, this was related to the reputation of the Shadow Cult...and it was also what Ying Yi Karen cared about most.

For Wu Yue's sake, it's just a show.

"Well, it's not a good idea to stay here for long. Perhaps your guests will arrive soon..."

"When this is over... I have something else to ask of you, so... don't mess it up."

"Wu Yue, let's go."

Karen said what he had to say, glanced at Bai Ye, and then left the scene.

"Then, Master, I also..."

"Well, remember to pay more attention to the movements of all parties, especially the church. I always feel that there are still big things that have not been released... Especially that paladin, she has not made any moves so far... Either she is really an extremely noble person who does not collude with the church, or..."

"I understand, Master. Leave it to me."

"Glad to hear that...go ahead..."

......

As soon as the two left, the rune's effectiveness was restored.

Not long after, the sound of footsteps was heard outside the cell again.

The footsteps finally stopped in front of the door, and the window for delivering meals was opened.

"Ah... damn dwarves, even we wouldn't use a cell of this design..."

As soon as Albert felt the environment inside the cell, he gave up the idea of ​​​​prison breakout.

He is just an ordinary person here and can't do anything.

"Master Medici?"

Shay's voice came out from it.

"It's me, you useless thing... You can't do anything right no matter what I ask you to do, and I have to clean up your mess myself!"

"I'm sorry, it's really my fault for not doing my job well this time... I deserve to die!"

"You deserve to die, Lothar, but not now."

"Listen carefully. I can't rescue you now. You idiot, you must continue to complete the task I assigned to you and play the role of Shadow Heir until the end. As long as the damned dwarf convicts you, the plan will be half successful. At that time, I will find a way to rescue you."

"..."

"What? Don't want to?"

"I will certainly not refuse to die... When I work for you, there is no question of whether I am willing or not..."

"That's good to know..."

"I just don't know what you are going to do when the time comes?"

"That's not something you should worry about... You just need to contribute everything you have to His Holiness the Pope."

"Listen, when you are on trial, don't rush to admit that you are the heir of the shadow. Be vague, understand? Let them debate for a while, so that the facts will appear more credible. When the time is right and they have produced enough evidence, you can admit it..."

"I understand, please rest assured..."

"Well, very good. You performed well. I will say a few good words for you in front of the archbishop when I get back. Maybe you will even be rewarded."

"Thank you, sir..."

"Oh, right, this..."

A tube of reagent is inserted into the window.

"Take it, hide it, and drink it when necessary. The goddess will grant you infinite power... Don't let me down... Do you understand?"

"Thank you, sir..."
