"However, because this space is too small, we can't fully utilize our true form!"

"Thanks to this, young man, you are the first human to see me in this form in hundreds of years... Oh, perhaps I used the wrong title. Whether you are even human is another matter!"

The girl seemed to be speaking in a mocking tone, and even though she sensed that Bai Ye was stronger than her, she showed no fear or ingratiation whatsoever.

"Would you like to introduce yourself first?"

"My name is Holo! I'm Holo, the wise wolf who has protected this village for over five hundred years!"

Seeing that the old man had been replaced by a beautiful young woman, Bai Ye's mood instantly improved. He readily accepted the young woman's invitation to introduce herself.

"I am Bai Ye. Although I possess some superhuman strength, Miss Xianlang... I am a pure human!"

"Bai Ye! You're the one the younger generation from that village asked about... No wonder you have such a powerful aura of light!"

The moment she heard Bai Ye's name, Miss Xianlang seemed to realize something. She looked at Bai Ye with a surprised look in her eyes, then narrowed her eyes, her amber pupils turning into bright golden wolf eyes, and she exuded a powerful divine aura.

"This divine aura? Is it the pure Earth Mother Goddess born from this land?"

The little saint inside Bai Ye, who was always sleeping, seemed to have been awakened by the divine aura emanating from Miss Xianlang. He was quite surprised that Bai Ye could encounter a deity in such a lowly world.

"However, it seems that because she was born in a world where the mystery has faded, this wolf goddess girl, even in her prime, could only barely reach the level of a two-winged angel (lower-level demon). It's really a pity that she has such talent!"

Xiao Sheng's words seemed to carry a hint of pity.

"Is there any way to abduct this girl?"

Bai Ye suddenly had a strange idea and asked Xiao Sheng a question.

"I remember the Bible mentioning that when God conquered other pantheons, he would either convert the gods of those pantheons into angels or demote them into demons, right?"

"Did any related magical techniques remain in the memory of the previous biblical gods?"

"Recruiting her as an angel? I think you should just add her to your own harem!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Sheng simply rolled his eyes at Bai Ye.

"But reincarnated as an angel?"

Xiao Sheng thought about it carefully.

"The angels under the former leader were all created by themselves using the power of light combined with the power of faith; there was indeed no reincarnation technique involved."

Just as Bai Ye was feeling somewhat disappointed, Xiao Sheng spoke up again.

"However, I can create something similar to a reincarnation chess piece for you based on the plot of the High School DxD anime. But with your personality, 15 chess pieces definitely won't be enough for you to mess with."

Upon realizing this, the little saint clapped his hands.

"Why don't we use the playing cards that the angels used in the original story? 52 cards should be enough for you for the time being."

Bai Ye: "emmmmmm"

Little Saint really knows himself well!

After making a self-deprecating remark, Bai Ye stopped hearing Xiao Sheng's voice in his mind. He seemed to have become engrossed in his research on the reincarnation playing cards.

This made Bai Ye sigh that he had truly gained a wonderful wife.

"So..."

Having ended his mental communication with Xiao Sheng, Bai Ye turned his gaze to the wise wolf girl before him.

"Miss Xianlang! Would you be interested in talking to me about changing jobs?"

"After all, being trapped in this ancient village for hundreds of years, Miss Wise Wolf must be quite bored!"

Holo the Wise Wolf: "..."

"..."

Half an hour passed in the small room.

Victorique then saw Bai Ye walk out from inside with a satisfied expression.

Upon emerging, he saw Victorique reaching out her small hand to him again. After this brief respite, the girl seemed to have come to her senses and stopped staring at Bai Ye with strange looks.

but

The two had just stepped out of the church.

Unexpectedly, a group of villagers who had picked up swords surrounded the two of them once again.

"It's them! Get them all out of here!"

The one who led the shouting was a familiar figure that Bai Ye hadn't seen since yesterday's apology.

"He Manni!"

Upon seeing the leading maid, Bai Ye and Victorica both showed some surprise. They hadn't expected that before they could even cause her any trouble, this woman would lead the villagers to surround them.

What left Bai Ye speechless was that these villagers seemed like a bunch of fools, easily swayed by anyone.

Looking at Victoria's small face beside him, Bai Ye's eyes made it clear: Are you sure this group really has the same bloodline of gray wolf intelligence as you?

Seeing Bai Ye's expression, Victorica understood what Bai Ye meant and showed a speechless expression.

The girl was indeed very puzzled. Wasn't it said that the gray wolf bloodline possessed great intelligence?

Bai Ye kept this matter in mind, and when he was about to leave, he would definitely ask Miss Holo about it.

Chapter 51 Since you're unwilling to listen while standing, then kneel down!

Let's return our focus to the scene before us.

He Manni pointed her finger at Bai Ye and Victorique, her tone conveying a sense of triumph, as if she had finally gotten her revenge.

"You two came with those three thieves and robbers, you must be their accomplices."

"Thief?"

"robber?"

The sudden accusation made Bai Ye release his fist, which he was about to use to fight, and look at the three uncles being escorted by the villagers, his eyes full of strangeness.

“That’s right! It was these three people who broke into the villagers’ homes to steal things during the festival. And after we searched, we also found that the gold coins from the village chief’s room were also in their room.”

He Manni's tone became extremely arrogant, as if she thought she had caught Bai Ye and Victorica red-handed.

"Nonsense! We just want to protect these antiques!"

"That's right, these cultural relics are simply being wasted in the hands of you ignorant masses!"

Bai Ye was speechless as he looked at the three men, still stubbornly refusing to admit their wrongdoing even after being tied up. Good heavens, these three really were thieves.

Thankfully, Bai Ye had initially dismissed these people as reckless fools who loved exploring and seeing different scenery. Turns out, these guys had traveled all this way just to steal something?

Seeing that Bai Ye seemed speechless for a long time without rebuttal, He Manni quickly seized the opportunity to tease him.

"See, they're speechless now! I told you Cordelia's daughter wasn't any better; a murderer's daughter turned out to be a robber!"

"That's right!"

"They should have been kicked out in the first place!"

"So the village chief is just too kind after all!"

Upon hearing He Manni's speech, the villagers immediately joined in the commotion.

"Listen to me!"

"Regarding my mother, Cordelia, I have found evidence that she is not the murderer!"

Seeing this, Victorique thought she could take the opportunity to explain. Her words slightly attracted the attention of the villagers present.

Unexpectedly, He Manni's expression changed drastically upon hearing this. She immediately snatched a sharp knife from the villager, pointed it at Victoria, and yelled.

"These two robbers must have realized that we had seen through their true intentions and were trying to distract us."

"Don't be fooled by the robbers' words!"

Seemingly persuaded by He Manni's words, several villagers who had just wanted to hear Victorique finish speaking instantly switched sides and started making noise.

"Everyone! Take down these thieves!"

"I! I feel they should be burned alive to appease and console our ancestors' anger at the defilement of the festival."

"Burn them!"

"Burn them!"

"Burn them!"

After being constantly instigated by He Manni, the villagers were now blinded by anger and could no longer listen to Victorique's explanation.

Bai Ye merely watched this scene coldly, observing He Manni jumping around like a clown in the back.

It seemed that the noise disturbed the people inside the church who were performing divination. At this moment, the village chief, Sergius, had finished Holo's possession divination, regained control of his body, and walked out of the church with a puzzled look on his face.

"Quiet, everyone!"

The village chief's reprimand silenced the atmosphere once again.

At that moment, several villagers immediately ran up to the village chief and explained the situation.

With a wave of his hand, Village Chief Shergis immediately announced the so-called crimes of Bai Ye and the others.

"Now that we have caught these three people as thieves, and they have also desecrated the sacred ritual."

"Then let's follow the rules of our village and execute the prisoner by burning him at the stake!"

Seemingly realizing that the village chief was really going to burn them, the three men who were tied up finally became frightened and immediately struggled and shouted.

"No, you can't just kill us like this."

“That’s right. Even if we did something wrong, we should be sent outside to be judged according to the laws of Suvar.”

"That's right, I want to see my lawyer!"

Ignoring the three men's clownish and futile struggles, the village chief simply wore an arrogant expression.

"law?"

"Where do you think this is?"

"This is the great Kingdom of Seren! As the village chief, I am the king!"

"We have our own laws here!"

Without giving the three any room for rebuttal, he proudly concluded his declaration. Sergius then turned his gaze to Bai Ye and the other person before him.

"As for Cordelia's daughter and this boy, there's no substantial evidence that they are thieves."

"Then... just like Cordelia, let's expel them from the Kingdom of Seren!"

"Expulsion? The same punishment as for my mother?"

Victorique frowned slightly, seemingly still somewhat unwilling to clear her mother's name before leaving.

"Before that, could you please tell me about the unreasonable aspects of my mother's case that I've discovered during my investigation?"

The village chief frowned deeply upon hearing this, seemingly considering whether to agree. But He Manni, watching from below the stage, couldn't remain seated any longer and immediately became agitated.

"no!"

"Letting this sinner stay in the village for even a moment longer is a desecration of the souls of our ancestors! Drive them away!"

Hearing He Manni's incitement, the villagers immediately brandished their swords and roared in response.

"Get them out of here!"

"Get them out of here!"

"Get them out of here!"

"..."

Standing at the door, Victorique bit her lower lip as she witnessed this scene. She never expected that after gathering all the evidence, she would fall at the last step in clearing her mother's name.

Seeing the excited expressions of the villagers from all directions, two crystal tears welled up in Victoria's eyes.
