Chapter 3278 Being Both The Devil And The Angel
She even thought about how she would get her revenge.
Still, Gloria knew it was not the right time to make a move on Sonja then because the list of Bonemasters had not been found yet. I can’t do anything to Sonja and the others just yet. At least not until we find the list. Then, they can bet that I’ll come for them! For now, I’ll keep a close eye on them and watch their every move.
Gloria knew whatever Sonja and the others were up to and which Bonemasters they had found, for she had more than one informant in North Pavilion.
All her informants were men, and she controlled them the same way she controlled Floyd, who took even more effort to manage than her other puppets.
After all, Floyd was a more cautious person since he had been through a lot with Levi.
If it were not for his self-blame after what happened to Azure Dragon and the others, Gloria probably would not have succeeded in pulling Floyd’s strings.
It took far less effort for Gloria to manipulate the men in North Pavilion and have them eating out of the palm of her hand. Some of them would betray the faction or even throw their lives away for her.
With informants planted in North Pavilion, Gloria knew Sonja’s and the others’ every move.
That was how she always managed to stay one step ahead of them with an exact copy of their list of Bonemasters.
Naturally, North Pavilion was not the only faction she planted her informants in since she was very good at manipulating men, especially those who were influential in their respective factions.
Since most of the men had done nothing but cultivate since birth, they were almost as naive as a baby, making them easy targets for Gloria.
Even Ghost Wolf, who Levi had slain, was also manipulated by her.
Furthermore, the young ones were not the only victims of Gloria’s seductive ways; many experienced elders of different factions, too, fell under her control.
No matter the men’s age, they all fell victim to Gloria just the same.
However, like everyone else, Gloria was not perfect.
It did not matter how meticulous the woman was because she was bound to fail sometimes.
Gloria simply moved on to another target every time she failed.
Many in the Ecclesiastic Order knew about her devious ways, and that was why Sonja and the others tried to warn Floyd.
Still, it was impossible for Floyd to listen to them because he had already fallen head over heels for Gloria.
Huh!
Suddenly, Floyd let out a long sigh.
“Are you okay? Is something the matter?” inquired Gloria concernedly.
“It’s as you said. My master is hiding something from me—he told me that what Evie was cultivating wasn’t the Art of Consumption.” Then, Floyd told Gloria everything Levi said to him, and the woman was taken aback by it.
Is her self-created technique really more potent than the Art of Consumption? After thinking about it carefully, Gloria remembered how powerful her technique was even back when spiritual energy was scarce.
And that was just the beginning. Now that she has spiritual energy and other resources, she must be capable of reaching new heights.
When Gloria heard how Levi described Forlevia’s technique to Floyd, her eyes immediately widened in greed, for she had decided to get her hands on more than just Levi’s and Forlevia’s spiritual bones.
Thinking about making Forlevia’s self-created technique her own, Gloria could not help but smirk evilly.
However, when she noticed Floyd staring curiously at her, Gloria quickly returned to her senses.
“I… I don’t think you should jump to conclusions. I mean, what if it really is something different? Similar but different,” responded Gloria cautiously.
Although it was Gloria who made Floyd think that his master did not trust him, she pretended to be understanding.
“But… But we talked about this, and I just don’ think that he… Da*n it!” Floyd found it difficult to finish his sentence, for even though he doubted Levi, he dared not to speak ill of his master.
“If you want to know for sure, there is a way we can find out,” voiced Gloria with another smirk.
