Kegru found Shirley and with just one sentence, Shirley fell into chaos.

"Shirley, you don't want anything to happen to your parents."

This sentence directly penetrated Shirley's psychological defense.

Her parents and brother are still in the imperial capital. If she doesn't complete the task, something will happen to her parents.

When everyone goes on a mission, their family members must stay in the imperial capital. This is the rule.This is to prevent her from rebelling outside.

Kegru told her that as long as she took action, regardless of whether it was successful or not, her parents would receive preferential treatment.

Of course, the treatment after failure is definitely far worse than success.

The mission they gave Shirley was simple, assassinate Matthew.

No matter what means they use, Matthew will not survive more than three days.

With her parents' lives threatened, Shirley had no choice.Although he recognized Matthew, he could not compare with the lives of his parents and brother.

She was holding poison pills in her mouth.Regardless of whether the assassination was successful or not, she would commit suicide by swallowing a poison pill.

This terrible world ends like this.

Her trembling hands gradually regained their composure, and she could feel Matthew's steady heartbeat.

It was obvious that he still had faith in her.As long as she makes a move, she has a high probability of succeeding.But she really couldn't make this stab.

Those who retaliate with kindness will definitely go to hell.

Shirley thought silently, will she meet Matthew in hell?What could she say if they met again?

Sorry, Matthew.

Just when Shirley was about to take action, Matthew's soft voice sounded in her ears.

"If you want to strike, please be more precise."

Shirley seemed to be awakened by a thunderclap. She only hesitated for a moment before throwing the dagger in her hand into the corner with a clang.She pushed Matthew away violently and took two steps back. Her face turned pale and her breathing was rapid, but she did not dare to look at Matthew.

In a flash, she thought of all the possibilities, but none of them succeeded.

A woman's sixth sense tells her that only by giving up can she have a chance of survival.

A wry smile appeared on her lips, and her clenched fists slowly unclenched.That's fine, there's no need to retaliate, and there's no need to burden your parents.

If she died like this, she could probably go to heaven.No matter what she thought before, she gave up the crime at the last moment.

Seeing Shirley's eyes of relief after despair, Matthew's right hand suddenly reached out and pinched Shirley's face.He squeezed hard and the black poison pill hidden under his tongue jumped out.

"Do you have to be so heartless towards yourself?" Matthew's voice was cold, like a polar glacier.

When Shirley held him just now, her body was shaking violently.Matthew soon discovered her intentions.

Matthew originally planned to quickly subdue Shirley and let her die abstractly, but when he saw Shirley hesitated for a long time and refused to take action, he changed his mind.

Shirley has served in the Angel Legion for many years and is very familiar with the internal affairs of the Legion and is worthy of instigating rebellion.

She was so hesitant before taking action, not because she was soft-hearted, but because of her hesitation in getting along with her these days.

Generally speaking, this is a girl who is not too firm but kind-hearted and has been poisoned by religion.

Somewhat abominable, but salvageable.

Matthew decided to give her a chance.

If Shirley had really taken action just now, he would have instantly cast an ice barrier to protect his heart. He would only be slightly injured but not dead.

If she did take action, no matter how valuable it was, Matthew would kill her without hesitation.

A tiger that has eaten people cannot be kept.

Fortunately, Shirley did not let him down completely. She pulled back from the brink at the last moment.

Perhaps because of the kindness in her heart, or perhaps because of the friendship they had spent with each other these days, Shirley stopped at the last moment.

She gave Matthew a chance and also gave herself a chance.

Matthew let out a sigh of relief. After all, things didn't turn out to be the worst.

Shirley was the first golden contractor he signed, and even had the potential to awaken to orange.

He doesn't want Shirley to destroy her future.

But no matter how much he likes Shirley, he will not leave a time bomb around that wants to kill him.

Seeing Shirley's heartbroken and desperate expression, Matthew reached out, grabbed her trembling shoulders, and said softly: "Shirley, you are my contractor, and we are family. Family members must tolerate and understand each other. , help and support each other.”

"No matter what difficulties you encounter, tell me and I will help you solve it."

Chapter 077 Modify the Thought Seal

Matthew's eyes revealed determination and a hint of ferocity.

"If you have an enemy that you can't deal with, no matter who it is, I'll take care of him for you!"

Faced with Matthew's comfort, Shirley finally couldn't bear it anymore. She knelt on the ground with a "pop", crying and whimpering:

"Master Matthew, I'm sorry for you. Just now..."

She honestly told what happened when Keglu threatened her to do something to Matthew.He even explained everything about being caught and lurking next to Matthew on purpose.

After she finished speaking, she closed her eyes and her tears gradually stopped.

"Master Matthew, kill me. I'm sorry for your trust. After I die, they will at least let my parents go."

Matthew stood in front of Shirley and said in a deep voice: "What you did before is indeed worthy of death, but there are people who are more damned than you. You are just a dagger they use."

"Stand up. Your candor has earned you a chance to live."

Shirley slowly opened her eyes and looked at Matthew in disbelief.

For a person of such noble status as Matthew, betrayal is unforgivable, especially from those around him.

She had never had the extravagant hope of Matthew's forgiveness, and her greatest hope was to die peacefully.

Matthew looked at Shirley coldly, his expression gradually becoming cold.

"Shirley, although your frankness has won you your life, I must verify the authenticity of your confession. Completely relax!"

He had guessed that Shirley had been coerced into being an undercover agent next to him, and he had also thought that this was a planned situation from beginning to end, but the cruel truth that Shirley had just said still made him feel scared.

Unless Shirley could prove her innocence, he would not dare to keep such a person around him.

The clause in the soul contract prohibiting harming each other was slow to take effect, and the punishment was not strong enough.If the contractor really wanted to attack Matthew, the consequences would be too terrible.

He must eliminate hidden dangers.

Shirley closed her eyes tightly, took a deep breath, and let go of her guard.

Matthew was betting, and so was she.If Matthew wanted to use mind control to turn her into a walking zombie, she could only appoint him.

But she had a vague feeling that Matthew wouldn't do that.

Standing in front of Shirley, Matthew started chanting without hesitation.

What he wants to use is soul magic [Soul Detection], and this magic requires the complete cooperation of the recipient.

With the successful release of [Soul Detection], Matthew took over Shirley's soul and spirit.

He invaded Shirley's sea of ​​consciousness and looked through her memories as quickly as possible.

This was a hugely consuming magic. Whether it was Shirley who was being checked or him who was looking through his memories, his mental energy was rapidly draining away.

Memories of childhood are worthless, and finding out how old Shirley was when she peed her pants means nothing except to satisfy the spirit of gossip.Matthew begins directly with Shirley attending parochial school at the age of five.

The more I read, the more shocking I became. It was indeed a religious school, and the brainwashing methods were indeed very clever.From the early stage of the establishment of children's three views, it is imprinted in the depths of their minds.

Although the church schools teach them reading and literacy and teach them to be positive and kind, these are just appearances.

Everything taught in school is instilling in her the concept that the Holy See is the spokesperson of the Lord of Holy Light in the world, and the Lord of Holy Light represents light, justice and kindness.

The ultimate goal of teachers teaching them to read and read is not to let them understand the world, but to let them chant hymns and offer loyal hymns to the Lord of Holy Light and the Holy See.

Matthew knew very well that loyalty to the Lord of Holy Light was just a facade, and what they really needed was someone loyal to the Holy See.

Does the Holy See believe in the Holy Light?

Pooh!

The people in the world who least believe in the Holy Light are not unbelievers, let alone pagans, but these so-called servants of the Holy Light.

The gods are in heaven and cannot come to the human world. The sky is high and the gods are far away, so the senior officials of the Holy See are becoming more and more wanton.They use the Holy Light to make money for themselves and seek personal gain for themselves.

Under the light of the Lord of Holy Light, the Holy See where her statue is enshrined is the most filthy place in the world.

But Shirley didn't understand. She had received brainwashing education since she was a child, and she naturally believed that the teacher was right. The pope and bishops were the spokespersons of the Lord of Holy Light in the world.

Matthew carefully looked through Shirley's memories and knew the girl's thoughts well.She is indeed a simple person, but she was controlled and brainwashed by the Holy See.

Seeing the stamp of thought in her mind, Matthew chose to tamper without hesitation.

From this moment on, the stamp of "The Holy See is correct" left in Shirley's mind disappeared.

Matthew originally wanted to write a new seal of "Allegiance to Matthew" here, but he thought of the Miracle Night.

On that night, the Lord of Holy Light sent down holy water and selected several real human spokespersons.Shirley is the person chosen by the Lord of Holy Light.

This is also the main reason why he doesn't want to kill Shirley.

Shirley is a chess piece left by the Lord of Holy Light in the human world. If you directly promote her to others, wouldn't you offend them?

Although the gods in the heavens cannot come to the human world now, the heavens and the human world were once connected.

Taking a longer view, who can guarantee that the passage between the two realms will not be opened again in the future?

If he offends the Lord of Holy Light over a Shirley, it will be difficult to deal with it then.

Monkey Sun encounters monsters with no background on his way to the West and is beaten to death with a stick. When he encounters monsters with background, he has to ask the big boss behind them to come out and lead them.

There is someone behind Shirley, and that person is the Lord of Holy Light.

People in the Holy See may not care about the Lord of Holy Light, but he, an unbeliever, is worried that it will not be easy to get along with him when they meet in the future.

He, an unbeliever, cares more about the goddess, which is a huge joke.

Matthew thought over and over again, leaving new thoughts deep in Shirley's mind.

[The Lord of Holy Light represents light, but those who harm the world under her banner do not]

This statement is neither exaggerated nor slanderous, and is fair and objective. Even if the Lord of Holy Light comes in person, he would dare to say this.This kind of change can correct the children who have been brainwashed by religion, and even the Lord of Holy Light will say yes after seeing it.

While his mental strength could still support him, Matthew continued to look down.

After reading Kegru's threats to Shirley, he couldn't hold on mentally anymore and quickly stopped the magic.

After the magic ended, Shirley's eyes returned to clarity.

She only knew that Matthew was checking her memory, but she didn't know that Matthew had the ability to tamper with the seal of her mind.She searched her memory and found no trace of modification, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

(The thought stamp is not a memory, and Shirley doesn’t know its existence)

She was a little surprised. Did Matthew really let her go?

Seeing Shirley's happy expression, Matthew snorted coldly, "Shirley, although you stopped at the last moment, it is true that you tried to murder me. If it is according to the laws of the empire, you will be punished by death for betraying you, and you have nothing to say."

Shirley looked calm and said softly: "I have no objection. I just ask you, sir, for the benefit I have brought you, to give me a peaceful death."

"Okay, then I will announce your death."

Chapter 078 Pardon and Value

Shirley showed a relieved smile. What should come will always come. Even if Matthew was willing to forgive her before, he would probably be angry after reading her memories.

No one would believe a killer lurking around them.Even if this killer has given up.

Matthew held up Shirley's chin with his right hand, stared into her golden eyes, and said calmly: "I declare that the way you will die is to work hard for me until you die."

Shirley was stunned for a few seconds and finally realized, isn't this just dying of old age?

Is that okay?

She looked up in disbelief and saw the sincerity in Matthew's eyes.

He really let her go.
