Kapitel 356: Chapter 356: Audrey: Susie, Being Too Smart Can Make You Bald
Chapter 356: Audrey: Susie, Being Too Smart Can Make You Bald
At the Earl Hall's residence.
Audrey, who had spent 2000 gold pounds, was currently sitting at her desk. On the desk lay a Bible from the Church of the Night.
She was atoning for the thoughts of doubting the goddess that had arisen in her mind during the previous Tarot meeting. She had no intention of blasphemy; on the contrary, she agreed with many of the Church of the Night's doctrines.
After quietly reading for an hour, she closed the book and glanced at Susie, who was lying at the bottom of the windowsill, seriously reading a book in the light of the setting sun.
Hmm, she was still wearing the gold-rimmed round glasses that Audrey had given her some time ago.
Noticing Audrey's gaze, Susie lifted her head, momentarily pulling herself out of the world of the book.
"Audrey, do you have something on your mind today?"
"What did you see?" Audrey intentionally tested Susie.
"You are hesitating, you are doubting, you feel ashamed of your unsteady thoughts, you are a bit excited, you want to discuss it with me but don't want me to know too much."
"..."
Audrey remained silent, her eyes drifting to the cover of the book Susie was reading, *On the Correlation Between Behavior and Psychology*.
Should she also find time to read it? Otherwise, she would really be left behind by Susie.
"Audrey, you usually don't like reading church books. Did something happen related to the church?"
Susie stood up from the ground, took two steps towards Audrey, and continued, "Your faith is in the Goddess of the Night. Were you just doubting your faith in the goddess? Is that why you are reading church books to alleviate the guilt of your wavering thoughts?"
She took a few more steps closer, her eyes shining as she stared into Audrey's eyes. "Your pupils just contracted involuntarily because I guessed your thoughts, right? Did you just experience something significant or receive news that could affect your long-held beliefs?"
Audrey did not speak. She just stiffened slightly, her body becoming unnaturally tense. Susie came to Audrey's feet, rubbed her head against Audrey's leg, wagged her tail, and looked up, saying, "Audrey, your thoughts are really easy to understand."
After a moment of silence, Audrey lowered her head slightly, reached out to rub Susie's head, and said with a smile, "Susie, Emperor Roselle once said that overly smart animals tend to go bald."
Susie looked surprised, her eyes wide with shock. "Audrey, is that true?"
"Of course. Do you know the vulture? It is because it is too smart that it overuses its brain, leading to a bald head. You mustn't be like it."
Audrey said these slightly eerie words in a calm tone.
Susie's wagging tail stopped, and she said seriously, "Audrey, do you finally think I'm very smart? I always thought so myself, but the books say not to overestimate oneself, as it will give rise to a demon called pride."
"..."
Audrey was stunned for a few seconds, then withdrew the hand rubbing Susie's head, turned her back to Susie, sat up straight, opened the Church of the Night's book, found the page with the commandments, and silently read.
**South Bridge District, Harvest Church.**
Under the setting sun, Emlyn unknowingly walked to the entrance of Harvest Church again, looking at the unremarkable church.
He encouraged himself in his heart; it was time to make a break!
Just one last look today, and then he would stay away from here. Although the teachings of the Earth Mother were good and the harvest was indeed joyful, he did not want to betray his faith in the blood clan.
Not to mention that Ancestor Lilith had entrusted him with the glorious task of saving the entire blood clan.
As the future savior of the blood clan, he absolutely could not have divided loyalties.
But unknowingly, his legs seemed to have a mind of their own and had already stepped into the door of Harvest Church ahead of his mouth.
Forget it, just consider it a final farewell to the priest.
But when he saw the situation inside the church, his eyes widened, and a series of question marks filled his mind.
Inside Harvest Church, a group of high-ranking members of their blood clan had arrived, even the blood clan prince had personally come, along with the young blood clan members who usually bullied him and were at odds with him.
They were crowded into the small church, some busy wiping tables, some cleaning windows, and some sweeping the floor...
Father Utravsky was holding a Bible of the Earth Mother Church, watching everything.
Seeing Emlyn's arrival, Father Utravsky smiled kindly and said, "You will teach them how to work properly."
"Okay."
Emlyn's mouth had already agreed to this matter ahead of time.
Wasn't he supposed to make a break with this Harvest Church?
After two or three seconds of silence, Emlyn shattered these thoughts. Even the blood clan prince had condescended to come to Harvest Church to work, what did his personal honor and disgrace matter?
Moreover, the opportunity to openly command these annoying guys to work was rare.
Emlyn's mood instantly became cheerful, and his faith in the Earth Mother deepened a bit.
**...**
**Southwell County, Puning Port.**
When the ferry from the southern continent docked, a small black cat nimbly navigated through the crowded pier, darting left and right, then jumped onto a doll-like woman.
"Meow!"
Aisala nestled excitedly in Sharon's arms, meowing as if recounting her experiences during this time.
Sharon lowered her eyes slightly, stroking Aisala's little head, her expressionless face showing a hint of tenderness.
Just as the ferry docked at Puning Port, Gregory opened the door to the spirit world and returned to the spirit world.
One Gregory left, and another Aisala arrived.
As Sharon left the dock with Aisala in her arms, she saw Hastur standing by the wooden fence, waving at her.
After a moment's hesitation, she waved back atHastur.
Sharon andHastur did not choose to take a carriage back but strolled along the coast, admiring the sunset that was about to merge with the sea.
Hasta did not ask about Sharon's experiences on the southern continent because he had already learned through Gregory's vision how smooth her journey had been.
He briefly introduced his situation during this period and talked about Aisala's promotion to Sequence 7 Witch.
"She still can't transform into a human. I don't know if she's pretending to be dumb or if she's really too stupid."
Sighing,Hastur said, "I've been looking forward to Aisala transforming into a cat-eared girl."
During this time, he had tried various methods, using both threats and inducements, but even his infallible fish snacks had failed.
Faced with the temptation of fish snacks, Aisala deliberately showed confusion and incomprehension, then seized the moment he wasn't paying attention to snatch the fish snacks and dart onto the house beam.
Sharon glanced at Aisala, who was pretending to sleep, and calmly said, "Maybe your expectations are too high."
"Expectations too high?"Hastur frowned slightly. "Does she need to be promoted to a higher sequence to transform into a human?"
"Possibly." Sharon gave an uncertain answer.
"Forget it, let nature take its course."
Hasta did not insist too much. He had the resources for Aisala to be promoted from Sequence 7 Witch to Sequence 6 Joyful Witch.
Whatever was missing, he would have the members of the Yellow-clad Monks find it. They were always very professional in such matters.
Back in the study at home, when Sharon andHastur were alone, Sharon asked about Gregory.
Hasta chuckled, "Aren't all spirit world messengers like that? Strange and quirky. Even your teacher wanted to apply for the job back then."
"Do you know its true origin?" Sharon emphasized the word "it."
"I do. I've already signed a contract with it. You just need to treat it as a special spirit world messenger and let it run errands for you."
Hearing this, Sharon understood that Hastur deliberately did not want to explain Gregory's identity, so she did not continue to ask.
Looking at Sharon,Hastur said gently, "Its origin is a bit significant, even more outrageous than you might guess."
Sharon just nodded, indicating she understood.
Seeing that the conversation seemed to have been killed by himself,Hastur turned to a smile and said, "You went to the southern continent, didn't you bring a gift for Aisala?"
"Meow!"
Aisala, who had been pretending to sleep, instantly woke up, jumped from the windowsill to the sofa where Sharon was sitting, and placed her front paws on Sharon's legs, looking up with watery eyes.
"I forgot to bring it." Sharon's gentle mouth spoke ruthless words.
Aisala immediately looked tearful, rolling back and forth on Sharon's lap.
Sharon extended a white finger to poke Aisala's little head, "The items are in the luggage."
If not for wanting to bring something back, she would have quietly left when she got off the boat to avoid being surrounded by the crowd.
Aisala immediately flipped over, jumped off the sofa, and ran to Sharon's room.
"Is there a gift for me?"Hastur also leaned over, sitting in the empty seat next to Sharon, his eyes bright and clean like Aisala's.
Sharon just looked at him without speaking.
Hasta coughed lightly and smiled, "Actually, I'm also very good at acting cute."
