Chapter 3335 Just Be The Scapegoat
Sonja had already guessed what Gloria’s next moves would be.
The latter managed to drag everyone, including the Invincible Clan and Levi, through the mud. She made it so that she was the only one who would benefit from it all.
Everyone else had to fall and become the pawns in her game, and they had to do whatever she wanted because she had all the advantages in the world.
What could anyone do under those circumstances?
Gloria slowly shifted her gaze to Sonja and the others before laughing aloud. “See that? Even heaven is on my side because things keep progressing in my favor. With this, how can I possibly lose?”
“You… shameless b*tch!”
Sonja was so angry that she spewed some insults.
There was nothing else she could do, though.
It’s as if she has everything and everyone, including the angels in heaven, on her side.
“First, I am going to expose the location of Levi’s base. After that, I will wait for his enemies to invade his base. Then, I will take advantage of the commotion to sneak in and steal Levi’s Ancient Divine Sword. My last move will be to pin the crime on you people and the Invincible Clan. No one will ever think that I have anything to do with it at all!”
Sonja was so angry that she almost went insane.
If anything were to happen, they would have to deal with all the consequences that came with it because they were the only members of the Ecclesiastic Order that had been to Levi’s base before.
Gloria was there as well, but no one knew about it.
To make matters worse, the Invincible Clan had been searching every inch of Gerton to locate Levi’s base. That made them look so suspicious that anyone would think that they were the culprit.
F*ck!
Worse still, Sonja and the others were locked up at that time. No one could find them, so others would assume that they had hidden away out of guilt.
It would be insanely difficult for them to explain themselves. That was on the off chance that they actually have the opportunity to do so.
F*ck!
They had no choice but to be Gloria’s scapegoat.
“Hahaha, I now know that the Invincible Clan is trying to keep its distance from Levi. Perhaps, it was just as he had claimed, and they actually fear him. Whatever the case, I will force them to fight each other. That way, someone will be there to keep Levi occupied. Oh, just watch as I fan the flames of conflict and make things worse before I move on to the next phase of my plan. I won’t be going after his daughter just yet, though. The timing still isn’t perfect, but I will be taking Ancient Divine Sword with me.”
Gloria never imagined that an opportunity to perfect her plan would drop out of the sky, just like that.
She snickered mercilessly while staring at her prisoners. After that, she sarcastically said, “So sorry for making all of you my scapegoats. It’s not like you can go anywhere or do anything anyway, so just accept your fate and be the scapegoats.”
“Oh, rot in hell, Gloria!”
Sonja and the others cursed endlessly.
“Hahahaha…”
Gloria laughed boisterously as she left the place.
She was going to start working on her task right away.
The first thing she did was to go to Floyd and brainwash him with fake stories about how terrible Sonja and the others were.
She also told him that they were missing and that no one knew what they were scheming.
Gloria painted a picture with her words, pointing out how they disappeared just as the North Pavilion was in danger. She called them cowards.
The most important bit was that she pointed out how Sonja and the others were the only members of the Ecclesiastic Order that had ever been to Levi’s base.
In a way, Gloria was making a preemptive strike.
When I expose the location of the base, the first suspects that will pop up in Floyd’s mind will surely be Sonja and the others. It’s perfect.
“By the way, I heard that you are worried about not being able to exact your revenge. It’s fine. We’re not in a hurry and can put that on hold for now. I think it’s best if we refrain from placing our hope on someone else, though. Let’s grow to be stronger instead.
“Here are three books on the Art of Consumption. I had to pay a hefty price to get my hands on them. Here, take them and practice, so that you can become stronger.”
Gloria handed Floyd the books, and he trembled as he accepted them.
“I have some resources with me here. They should be of use to you. If you finish them, please let me know. I know where to get more. All in all, you need to grow stronger as soon as possible. I will train hard as well to help you. We both want our vengeance, and it’s best if we can slay our enemies with our own hands.”
Gloria looked firmly at him as she spoke.
That inspired Floyd, and he put his head in the game as well.
