Miss Witch's Devotion Has Gone… Twisted-Chapter 258: Collusion

The church knows this virus was researched by vampires, or at the very least knows it's related to vampires. But the money from selling the medicine is simply too much. Even if the church only gets a portion, it's still an astronomical figure.

One bottle costs ten silver coins. Buying two bottles a month, counting outsiders, Uridia has nearly a hundred million people. This number is even a bit hard for Loren to comprehend.

Because of this epidemic, Uridia's population has decreased significantly. The gods might not care about the feelings of their believers, but They do care about the number of believers. With such a large-scale reduction in believers, the church should intervene no matter what.

But the church is the church, and the church's higher-ups are the church's higher-ups. In the end, they still made a decision contrary to their duty. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"So the reason you came to find me is to have me help you deal with the Bloodline Rebels?"

Seeing Loren finally stop talking about the church, the Bishop quickly nodded.

"Right, recently the Bloodline Rebels have become increasingly brazen. Not only did they create the virus to poison Uridia's humans, they've also repeatedly hunted Uridia's vampires!"

Subconsciously, the Bishop placed himself on the moral high ground again. Although Loren had already seen through all his thoughts, this kind of thing was subconscious. Who knows how many times he's done it already.

This is the church's true appearance. After all, clergy are not like Angels who have already lost their humanity; they always have personal motives.

However, he's somewhat misunderstanding the Bloodline Rebels this time. After having new operations, the Bloodline Rebels' actions against vampires have decreased significantly. The vast majority of vampires were killed by Loren.

After researching ultraviolet magic wasn't enough, Loren also conveniently used vampires to stack Pluto's Mouth. Vampires are quite useful; any vampire with a title guarantees at least one attribute point increase for Loren.

"I've already reached a cooperation agreement with Vampire Marquis Ofemia, promising to help her deal with the Bloodline Rebels. Why trouble yourself to come find me again?"

Regarding this, the Bishop had some difficulty speaking. He clearly understood why this was.

Loren's contract was essentially getting something for nothing. He did nothing afterwards, and the contract didn't specify a time limit, so Loren wouldn't be violating the contract even if he waited until Ofemia died of old age before conducting research.

Regarding the things the church did, Loren could point them out, but the Bishop couldn't point out the things Loren did.

"Oh, I understand. You're here to show loyalty to the vampires. Recently receiving so much money, you feel a bit guilty not doing anything."

"The people living in dire straits doesn't make you feel guilty, but receiving vampire money without delivering makes you feel guilty. How laughable."

Loren's attitude like this was bound to offend many people. But as long as he didn't openly break with the church for a single day, all churches would have to treat him with respect for that day.

During this period, he continuously devoured vampires, increasing his attribute points by over twenty. But these vampires were all out of practice, not giving Loren a single point of Strength. However, the improvement for Loren was sufficient enough.

Not long after the Bishop left, Gwen passed through the wall and returned home. Loren directly took off the dragon-skin black robe from Gwen and draped it over himself.

"I'm going out to hunt again. If anyone comes looking for me, Gwen will temporarily transform into me. No one can see through physical-level disguises."

Using Pluto's Mouth through a puppet has losses; this is a pattern Loren summarized during this period. So he plans to personally go hunt vampires.
