I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

"What's 'piling'? Heh heh."

Roland smiled and took out a crystal ball from his snake ring—he kept things he might need close at hand in the crystal ball, so he often used things he had secretly recorded in it.

He reached out and touched the crystal ball, and then images and sounds appeared inside.

It was a secretly recorded video in a large bathroom of a seabed suite.

The perspective was from the table opposite the bed, making it impossible to see people's faces, and the recording position was behind the two people.

Roland said, "Did you gain some knowledge? Tsk tsk, Your Highness Princess Catherine, your appearance was truly unforgettable."

Looking at this scene, Isabella's face turned white.

Her mind was buzzing, and her face was full of disbelief, as if her worldview had collapsed at this moment.

She slowly looked at Roland, her voice trembling as she spoke: "You, you are simply… simply… How could you… how could you be so lewd!"

This Roland is really…

Secretly filming himself and his girlfriend… This is really immoral, truly scummy!

What's even worse is that this guy actually justified himself in the face of the accusation, saying: "I'm on this business trip, and I'll be gone for so many years… I need some material, right?"

Isabella was stunned for a long time before she understood what Roland meant by 'material'.

Instantly, her face turned as red as an apple.

She cursed loudly: "Go to hell! Go to hell! Destroy it, destroy that damn crystal ball!!"

Roland blinked his eyes in feigned confusion and said, "Miss Isabella, this is a recording of me and my fiancée, why are you so angry?"

Isabella: "…"

Miss Isabella seemed to be caught in a dilemma.

At this moment, Isabella saw Roland put away the crystal ball and then said leisurely to herself, "This was recorded with my fiancée's permission—it has nothing to do with you."

"You're talking nonsense!"

Isabella couldn't hold back, she gritted her teeth and said: "Roland, scum like you should be punished by everyone!"

Roland laughed heartily after hearing this, then he took out the crystal ball, wiped it, and immediately, all the images inside disappeared.

Seeing this scene, Isabella breathed a slight sigh of relief. Coming back to her senses, she found Roland looking at her meaningfully.

Roland said, "Interesting, Catherine, playing me like this?"

Isabella's heart thumped, and she said sternly, "I don't understand what you're talking about… Roland, for the sake of you having a daughter and me also having a daughter, I promise to cooperate with you. You let me down, and I'll pretend nothing happened today."

Roland chuckled, "Senior, you've acted this far, stop pretending."

Saying that, Roland angrily grabbed her chin and said, "You're right, I am scum.

Catherine, your fiancé is much more of a bastard than you think.

He grew up mixing with all kinds of mercenaries. These guys are worse than each other. Each one is more sinister than the last.

Among mercenaries, men are thieves and robbers—even taking thievery as a profession.

Women are all whores.

What good things could they teach?

I'm just that kind of bad thing, hahaha. Come on."

Isabella nodded, the murderous intent in her eyes almost overflowing.

She took a deep look at Roland and said, "Catherine really has taken a liking to a good man."

Roland leaned close to her face, saying with a fake smile, "I've really taken a liking to a good woman too. Humph humph, if I hadn't been careful today, wouldn't you and Anna have planned to lock me up with this thing?"

Isabella leaned into Roland's ear and said flirtatiously, "What do you think?"

Roland raised her chin and said, "So, you admit who you are?"

Isabella smiled and said, "I'm already locked up by you, whoever you want me to be next, that's who I'll be~~"

Saying that, her legs bent slightly, gently rubbing against Roland's body.

Looking at the woman in front of him who was stubbornly refusing to admit it and still looking at him with provocative eyes, Roland suddenly felt angry.

He opened the V-shaped frame, leaving only the shackles of original sin on Isabella's hands, and then threw her onto the bed.

Next, Roland did many, many evil things, and Isabella cooperated very well.

During this process, the two had the following conversation.

Roland said, "Just keep pretending, keep your current appearance—I'll just pretend I'm with Isabella!"

Isabella laughed and said, "Enjoy it, have fun, you stinky man."

Roland laughed and said, "Happy, of course I'm happy, I've wanted to sleep with Isabella for a long time. Happy, Mrs. Gawain?"

Isabella's laughing tone turned cold, she suppressed her anger and said coldly: "Roland, don't think I really won't kill you."

Afterwards, Roland leaned on the bed, took out Isabella's cigarette case, and lit a cigarette.

A jade hand snatched the cigarette from Roland's mouth and put it on her red lips, exhaling smoke.

Roland's eyes twitched fiercely, and he said somewhat unhappily, "When did you learn to smoke? Don't tell me you specially learned to smoke to play this role?!"

Roland was a little angry. He didn't like women smoking.

Isabella rolled her eyes and ignored him.

Looking at how skilled the woman's movements were when smoking, Roland's expression became even stranger.

Just now, when they were in bed, this woman's performance was also very strange… completely different from Senior!

She was very open.

Senior is usually not like this, very shy.

It's completely unlike one person.

How could one person have such good acting skills?

Roland suddenly felt a little panicked.

He asked cautiously, "Are you really Isabella?"

Isabella chuckled and said, "You're really interesting, you clearly just said you wanted to sleep with Mrs. Gawain, but now that you've realized I'm really Mrs. Gawain, you're panicking."

Cold sweat dripped down Roland's face.

If this woman really is Isabella, then he's doomed!

His fiancée is imprisoned in a mental hospital, but the fiancé is messing around outside!

What would Senior think if she knew about this?

Roland was very guilty now, but he was still stubborn, he said: "No, the facts and evidence are all in front of you, stop pretending!

Moreover, your expression when you were watching the video earlier already gave you away!

Ah~ I understand, you have a very necessary reason to send me to the asylum. But you're afraid that after I go in, things will go wrong, and your identity will be exposed when my memory is searched!

So, you deliberately lied to me, making me think you are Isabella!

To deceive me, you have repeatedly studied Isabella's memory, and studied it for many, many years!

Ha! I know why you performed so openly in bed!

I've had dreams like that! You were also so open in my dreams!

To deceive me, you even practiced with me repeatedly in my dreams!

Smoking is the same, after you discovered this loophole last time, you specially learned to smoke!"

Isabella propped up her chin and looked at Roland with a smile.

The woman didn't know what she was thinking.

After a pause, she said, "Okay, Roland, I am indeed Catherine. You guessed right. I do have an order from the Holy See. If I came to save some black wizard, I could just ask for them directly.

Archbishop Williams can't wait for me to take the person away as soon as possible.

The matter here has become bigger and bigger, and if it continues, the Archbishop will have to step down.

How could he not cooperate with me?

But I deliberately had a falling out with him.

Because I want to make things bigger!

I want to forcibly intervene and force the Archbishop to step down!

But I need someone to go inside. I do have my people inside, but they seem to be controlled by some strange thing. In short, they can't even protect themselves.

With their strength, it shouldn't be like this.

So this matter is very strange, and someone needs to go in and find out the situation.

I've also chosen the person to send to the asylum… it's you, the damned one.

You happen to be sick, and you can get treatment after you go in. The medical skills of the Wilmik Holy Spirit Hospital are the best in the world. Treating you is not a problem.

I was indeed playing a prank just now, of course, on the other hand, I was also afraid that after you knew my identity, things would go wrong inside and you would expose me.

There are many tricks of the black wizard. I don't know which side they are on.

So, I didn't dare to reveal my identity to you.

Otherwise, if you were to die inside, I would be exposed. Then I wouldn't be able to use Isabella's identity to openly rescue you.

I can only secretly save you and then run away together.

At that time, all the plans here will be in vain.

This time, I'm here for many, many things.

It's not just to save a few black wizards. Those idiots have made things look like this, and I still have to rely on me to save them. What's the use of keeping these troublemaking wastes?!"

Isabella kept saying that she was Catherine, but Roland became more and more panicked.

Seeing Roland's face changing all the time, Isabella smiled, looked at one of her hands tied to the head of the bed with the shackles of original sin, and said: "Regarding my identity, there is actually a simplest way to confirm it: unlock my shackles of original sin and you will know."

Roland's expression grew increasingly unpleasant.

He didn't say a word, and pulled on his pants.

Just then, a rustling sound came from not far away, followed by someone falling to the ground.

Roland looked over there and found it was Jeanne!

She groggily untied herself from the V-shaped rack and fell to the ground. Only a pair of Original Sin Shackles remained on her hands—she exerted so much force that a creaking sound came from the shackles.

Roland couldn't help but be stunned.

Jeanne obviously had a way to unlock the V-shaped rack, so if Jeanne could unlock it, didn't Isabella know how?

Roland couldn't help but look at Isabella with a strange expression.

Isabella's expression was slightly stiff, and she said to Jeanne, "It's useless, don't try. Jeanne, even if you unlock the V-shaped rack, you're still locked with the Original Sin Shackles.

If our power came purely from the gods, the situation would be a little better. As long as our faith is pious enough, the Original Sin Shackles won't have such a big effect on us.

But we both believe in the gods and secretly cultivate the things of the Eastern Territory.

We have a huge sin.

Once you are branded with Original Sin, you are like a mortal."

Roland was slightly stunned—so, this was the reason why Isabella didn't unlock the V-shaped rack just now?

After listening to her sister's words, Jeanne was stunned for a moment.

Then, she looked at her brother-in-law, who was half-pulling up his pants by the bed, with a strange expression, and then looked at her sister. She asked, "Cough, sister, I remember, I seem to have been born with divine strength, so even if I wear shackles, wouldn't I still have great strength? With my strength, I should be able to break free from the Original Sin Shackles by force, right?"

Roland's face was full of black question marks.

What does 'I remember I was born with divine strength' mean?

Don't you know if you were born with divine strength? Do you need someone else to remind you?!

Also, how strong are you exactly? Just try your best and you'll know?!

Isabella's expression became even stiffer.

She suppressed her anger and looked at the idiot, saying, "You can't unlock it!"

Jeanne said a little irritably, "Impossible! Am I that weak?! I remember I usually lift dumbbells! Can't I open this little piece of junk with my muscles?

What level is my muscle strength at? Tell me quickly!"

Isabella rubbed her forehead fiercely: "Shut up, you idiot!"

Jeanne suddenly said, "I remember, I remember! It's the strength of a peak Tier 1 knight... that's enough."

With that, she took a deep breath, and then her physical strength visibly decreased a lot.

Immediately afterwards, she grinned at Roland and pounced on him with a bang.

"Hahaha, little wizard, see if I don't eat you!"

As a result, as soon as she pounced in front of Roland, Miss Jeanne was like a kitten pouncing over, and Roland easily lifted her into the air with one hand.

—Jeanne's full-strength strike was easily resolved by Roland with one hand, and she was even lifted into the air with her throat locked!

She was stunned in mid-air for several seconds, then looked at Roland with an unbelievable gaze.

Even Isabella was stunned for a long time. She knew that a peak Tier 1 knight shouldn't be able to defeat Roland, but she thought that Jeanne would make some noise!

As long as Jeanne made some noise, the people downstairs would be disturbed and run over!

But when Roland dealt with Jeanne, he was as relaxed as dealing with a kitten!

If Jeanne couldn't make any noise at all, then tonight... Isabella's expression became extremely ugly.

At this moment, Roland reached out and threw Jeanne aside.

Isabella said, "Jeanne! Don't hold back, I know you ate the immortality medicine I lost some time ago! Don't pretend with me, unleash your true strength!"

Jeanne looked at her sister in astonishment, conveying a look—it wasn't me! I didn't eat it, and you don't have such a good thing!

Under her sister's murderous gaze, Jeanne suddenly realized: "That's right, sister, I ate your magic potion. Now that you already know, I don't need to hide it!"

Jeanne's physical strength suddenly soared.

She grinned, and with a bang, she stepped on the air, actually making a sonic boom!

With a bang, Jeanne slammed into Roland, and because the speed was too fast, shock waves were generated in the air.

Various items in the room were protected by a sacred power and were not destroyed by the aftermath of this power, but a large cloud of dust rose up.

Isabella coughed twice and looked over there.

But in the gradually dissipating dust, Jeanne was lifted into the air by Roland with her neck locked, her face blank—exactly the same as before.

This time, not only Jeanne was dumbfounded, but even Isabella was dumbfounded.

In the room, Roland exuded a terrifying aura, and even the air seemed to be distorted as if it were being burned by a raging fire.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Isabella's pupils shrank suddenly.

She knew that this kid liked to hide his strength, but she didn't expect it to be so exaggerated!

This guy could probably win in a one-on-one fight even if he encountered a Tier 2 sea monster!

Because this is not a late-stage Tier 1 wizard at all!

This is a quasi-Tier 2... no, this is a big sea monster!

A humanoid sea monster Celius who understands magic and has cultivated various secret techniques!

Not to mention that Jeanne is now locked by the Original Sin Shackles, even if she really broke the shackles, if she didn't take a weapon, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to deal with this super meat shield BOSS!

What's more, she has taken the medicine now, and her strength has been affected like herself.

It's no exaggeration to say that near this coast, this guy can rub a dragon on the ground with the support of the power of the sea!

If he is in the sea, his power is even stronger, and he can even carry a 10,000-ton steam cruise ship and slowly fly into the sky!

How can Jeanne defeat such a Celius with her bare hands?!

Roland said three sentences.

—"The soundproofing here is very good, and no one lives nearby—unless you break out, no one can save you."

—"None of you can escape this room."

—"The moment you took the medicine and were locked by me, you lost the chance to resist."

Isabella's eyes went black as she listened.

With that, Roland looked at Isabella meaningfully: "Of course, if you are a wizard from the Eastern Territory, you must have a way to unlock the Original Sin Shackles, right?"

Isabella shouted at Jeanne, "What are you still stunned for! Go out and call for someone! When people come from outside, this dog man won't dare to mess around!"

"Sister..." Jeanne wrapped her legs around Roland's body, and said with a red face: "I, I can't break free... I, I can't beat brother-in-law... I, I want to be in front of you, be, be brother-in-law, be brother-in-law..."
