Chapter 70. Dekan’s Infiltration Plan
Urola’s expression became very complicated.
Although I had extended an olive branch to her.
But this might have come from hell…
The doctrine of the Happy Church sounded even more outlandish than the Resurrection Church.
At least the Resurrection Church was a bit more realistic.
I snapped my fingers, and Cornelia quickly unlocked Urola’s handcuffs and handed her a cup of warm fruit tea.
“Miss Urola, you can take your time to think about it. If you have any concerns, you can also feel free to raise them. After all, I sincerely want you to become a member of our organization.”
“According to your confession, you never believed in the teachings of the Resurrection Church from the bottom of your heart, nor have you ever done anything truly evil.”
“So I want to give you a chance to redeem yourself.”
My tone suddenly became much more polite, making Urola feel uncomfortable all over.
She didn't dare to touch the cup of tea either.
Don’t look at how gentle I was now.
Who knew how cruel I would be when I turned hostile later.
“Will there be any restrictions… or costs to becoming a member of your organization?”
Urola seemed to have mustered up her courage, her fists clenched tightly, and asked timidly.
“There are no restrictions at all. There is a base salary, and there are additional rewards for completing tasks.”
“For example, I can personally make cards for you. When your contribution is enough, you might even have our Pope, that is, my teacher, make cards for you.”
“In addition, we have strict standards for overtime pay and pensions, and we will never treat any member unfairly. The specifics…”
My words made Urola’s eyelashes tremble.
Was this really an evil cult?
So formal?
It was simply a conscientious enterprise!
There was even a special-grade Card Maker in residence…
What was even more terrifying was… what level of existence was the “Pope” who could teach Dekan?
Her breathing gradually became a little rapid. She shook her head, not daring to think about it any further.
This kind of treatment, even if it wasn’t forced, was enough to move her heart.
“Will the missions be very dangerous?”
Urola asked again.
Although going to jail was countless times safer than getting involved with these three people.
But for some reason.
She felt that this might be a chance she could never have imagined—a chance to escape the Resurrection Church.
After all, many members of the Resurrection Church had joined against their will when they were weak.
Even after becoming strong, they didn't dare to dream of escaping this organization.
The fate of betrayers of the Resurrection Church was almost always miserable.
Unless they could find a powerful organization to protect them.
“It will be much safer than what you do in the Resurrection Church. After all, we are a charitable organization with a slight profit motive, and missions will prioritize your life safety.”
I said with a smile, my voice like a gentle breeze blowing across the earth.
An interrogation suddenly turned into an interview.
Urola was silent for a moment, and finally dared to look me directly in the eye.
There was already a little more light in her eyes.
But she seemed to have one last trace of hesitation.
She was afraid of becoming a pawn that these three people could discard at will.
However, I also saw her thoughts and looked at her seriously, saying:
“Your life will be a precious asset to our church. I swear to you that as long as you do not betray us, you will always be under our protection.”
Just not being targeted by these three people was already the most reassuring thing for Urola.
What’s more, she would have their protection.
It was as if the darkness of the entire world would be her backing.
“…I will join you.”
Urola finally made up her mind, her eyes carrying a hint of firmness and determination as she said these words.
My face was full of smiles, the kind of smile that was as benevolent as a god looking at his believer.
“Welcome to our 【Happy Church】. We are committed to creating happiness with our hearts, and we hope you are happy every day.”
High Priest Dekan, Judgment Knight Cornelia, and Interrogator Cloix took turns shaking hands with Urola, sending her their most sincere blessings.
She was overwhelmed by the favor.
Was this a transition from hell to the hell management bureau in an instant?
Urola: “Excuse me, is there any proof of my status as a believer?”
Me: “Due to the high secrecy of your identity, you only need to have a single-line contact with me for the time being. A token would only increase your risk of exposure. If other members need to work with you, I will contact you in advance and give you a token.”
Then I explained the contact rules to her.
Usually, they would only exchange information by publishing lost and found notices in the newspaper.
I was currently under special review by the Card Makers’ Association and should not have any contact with the Resurrection Church.
My policy for the next period of time was to first distance myself, and then infiltrate later.
Only after the special review was over would I begin the next step of my plan—to assist Urola in infiltrating the high levels of the Resurrection Church.
Initial infiltration of the Resurrection Church within one year, replacement of high-level personnel within three years, and annihilation of the Resurrection Church within five years.
Next, Urola had to continue to play her role well in the Resurrection Church.
Since the Resurrection Church’s “probing and winning over Dekan” was a long-term plan, Urola didn't need to make any major moves in the short term.
She just had to proceed step by step and create the impression that she was planning and making arrangements.
“Is there anything else you need to instruct me on?”
“No, you can go.”
My nonchalant reply made Urola even more certain of my meaning—
If I can catch you once, I can naturally catch you a second time.
It’s just that next time, there won’t be any reasoning.
This couldn't help but deepen her awe of me by another degree.
On the bright side, not only did I not give her any difficult tasks, but I would also help her work smoothly in the Resurrection Church.
And she didn't have to hand over any of the benefits she got from the Resurrection Church, and she even got a salary and rewards!
What kind of generosity was this?
This kind of organization was the orthodox one.
“Don’t worry, this is the first step you’ve taken to abandon the darkness and turn to the light.”
I patted her on the shoulder and said, looking very much like an old director who had been working for many years.
“I understand, Lord Dekan.”
Urola bowed to me in salute.
...
“Finally, we’re done for the day.”
The three of us walked on the streets of the Royal Capital in the early morning.
We all looked a little tired.
This organization had just started, and it would take time to grow bigger and stronger.
Cloix suddenly thought of something and looked at me, asking:
“But Dekan, what if Urola betrays us? And what if the Happy Church is really regarded as an evil cult?”
Me: “What are you talking about? Have we ever met her? And what is the Happy Church?”
“!”
Cloix understood instantly.
Urola had no witnesses or physical evidence.
The three of us were completely innocent.
“Hah, I won’t get much sleep even if I go back now.”
I yawned.
“Then let’s see the Royal Capital at four in the morning. There’s a good shop in the Royal Capital that’s also open now. We can go there for breakfast.”
Cloix took out a food map of the Royal Capital from his pocket and let me and Cornelia take a look.
Me: “We can buy some delicious food to go, go to the top of the Royal Capital’s clock tower to watch the sunrise, and then go back to school for class.”
Cloix: “Good idea.”
Co: “Go.”
