Chapter 3534 Is Gloria The Real Mastermind
There was a lot more to Gloria that met the eye.
Only those from West Pavilion knew of her terrible reputation.
In fact, she was ostracized by them to the extent of no one wanted to be associated with her.
They were filled with resentment for her and even accused her of being a slut.
This was also taken into account by Gloria in her plan to eradicate the Ecclesiastic Order. Other than West Pavilion, who would be mercilessly slaughtered, the other factions were allowed to join the Glorian Order as long as they submitted to her.
That was how much she hated those from West Pavilion.
Upon learning that Gloria was infamous for seducing men, Phoenix and the others realized that they had made a monumental discovery.
Even though she had seduced countless men, there were plenty of others who willingly subjected themselves to her manipulation despite being aware of her infamy.
Among them was Callahan, son of the West Pavilion’s master.
Moreover, she had even seduced her master’s husband before and was almost killed by Linda for it.
Even though all the incidents were true, they were kept under wraps for the sake of the West Pavilion’s dignity.
In addition, there was also another rumor—Gloria had even seduced the master of West Pavilion.
If Callahan hadn’t protected her then, she would have been ripped to shreds by him.
Her reputation was so bad that she would be scorned every time her name was brought up, to the extent that it felt like she had a history with eighty percent of the men within West Pavilion.
That number didn’t even include those outside their faction, where rumor had it that countless other men were also involved with her.
As a result, the revelation gave Phoenix and her companions a tremendous shock.
She’s such a terrifying woman! If the rumors prove to be true, manipulating Floyd would be a walk in the park for her.
“Floyd, you would never have guessed that you’re just one man among the thousands she has had!” Kirin lamented while Phoenix and everyone else felt bad for him.
From the way he behaved a few days ago, it’s clear that Floyd has fallen head over heels in love with Gloria, so much so that she had penetrated the core of his being. And yet, she turned out to be such a wretched woman.
Even if she hadn’t done anything, they were still going to look for her.
But from her actions alone, she had obviously betrayed Floyd and the hopes he had placed on her. Moreover, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that he had been blatantly cheated.
Unfortunately, poor Floyd was oblivious to Gloria’s true colors and still thought that she was someone loyal in love.
“She just gets on my nerves!” Black Tortoise ranted, as everyone was obviously upset.
At that moment, they realized that Gloria was just playing hard to get when she ignored Floyd in the beginning.
Her true objective was to have him eating out of her hand.
“Should we tell Floyd?” White Tiger asked.
The few of them shook their heads. “Considering how blinded he is, he would think that we’re trying to sow discord instead of believing us.”
“Precisely. Even though we now know who she really is, we have nothing but unsubstantiated rumors.”
“If we were to tell Master and Floyd without proof, we might alert the enemy instead.”
“Therefore, we have to obtain solid evidence. Perhaps we can gather the men who were connected to her and start from them.”
Phoenix added, “I’m just worried that Floyd would still refuse to believe us even if we show proof.”
After deciding to investigate further, they began to speculate if Gloria was the mastermind Levi was searching for, as there were many clues pointing in that direction.
Gloria was a nobody who didn’t come from an influential family nor had a powerful patron. Also, she wasn’t skilled or had the luck of an extraordinary encounter.
In fact, there was nothing remarkable about her other than being able to manipulate men.
If she is the true enemy, how did she manage to grow stronger? How could she have made so much progress that she can go toe to toe with Levi? This doesn’t make sense at all regardless of how one thinks about it. Even with a miracle, the gulf between them is simply too big!
