"That scoundrel!"
Lucia returned to the Bright Church Court and sat upon her throne, her expression cold and stern.
She still couldn't stop thinking about what Su Xuan had done. 'Are my feet really that attractive to him?'
However, when Lucia recalled that she had teased him first, a shy, crimson blush couldn't help but spread across her cheeks.
'How strange…'
Lucia's mind was in turmoil. Ever since becoming the Bright Empress, she had never behaved so frivolously...
AHEM!
'Not even when I was the Saintess!'
But ever since joining the Guild, her behavior had become increasingly strange, as if someone had tampered with her mind.
'Could it be that the recent pressure is getting to me, causing my behavior to change?'
Lucia muttered to herself. She refused to believe anyone could alter the mind of the Pope. She was one of the strongest beings in the world, standing at its very pinnacle.
She didn't even fear the Gods!
"Your Holiness, you seem to have something on your mind."
