1086 Put Down Dignity To Obtain Dignity
Madam Brulee didn’t intend to force Naris to make a choice.
She shook her head and said, “You don’t want to? That’s fine. It’s not like I have to see it.” However, if Naris was unwilling, Yu Huang and the others wouldn’t have had the chance to see the mayor.
Naris knew that Yu Huang and the others wanted to meet the mayor not only for the sake of Ah Kong’s education.
Yu Huang said that they came to the Cang Lang Continent to become powerhouses and go back to save their hometown in the future.
If they wanted to obtain the resources of a super Great World and create a world, they had to obtain the help and recognition of local forces.
The Central Continent was a continent of technology, so scientists were the lifeline of this continent. Naturally, Beast Tamers were very rare here. Powerful Beast Tamers had long gone to other continents to develop and further their studies. Those who were willing to stay in the Central Continent were mostly Beast Tamers with mediocre talent.
If Yu Huang and the others wanted to create a world, then the Central Continent was the most suitable place for them to expand their power and shine!
This was also the real reason why Yu Huang and the others decided to find a school for Ah Kong in the Central Continent, find a house to settle down in, and think of a way to befriend the mayor.
All of this was seen by Naris.
Although Naris and Yu Huang had only known each other for a day, when facing Yu Huang, Naris had a feeling that they had known each other for a long time.
Naris wanted to help Yu Huang and the others.
Her father had said that helping others was helping oneself.
Seeing that Naris had not expressed her stance, Madam Brulee thought that she had given up, so she smiled and planned to order Butler Mo to send Naris back.
Just as Madam Brulee raised her hand, before she could call out Butler Mo’s name, she heard Naris say, “It’s not that I don’t want to. It’s just that my appearance is ugly and terrifying. Three years ago, I frightened a child to the point of falling sick. You’re used to peonies and beauties, so I’m afraid that my appearance will dirty your eyes and scare you.”
Naris wasn’t exaggerating.
She simply wanted to give Madam Brulee a heads-up so that she could be mentally prepared.
Hearing this, Madam Brulee put down her slender hand and turned to look at Naris.
Her smile became even brighter.
She smiled like a peony blooming under the scorching sun, but her eyes were filled with mockery.
Madam Brulee said, “I’ve seen the most beautiful flowers and evil as well. At my age, what haven’t I seen before?”
In other words, she was telling Naris—
‘I’m set on finding out about your secret.’
Hearing this, Naris nodded and said, “Alright, excuse me.” Naris took off the hood of her cloak on the spot, revealing a pair of pigtails.
The dress she wore today was mid-collared and could cover most of her skin, but a portion behind her ears and neck was still revealed.
When Madam Brulee saw the blue scales behind Naris’ ears, her eyes flickered with surprise.
This woman’s skin was so strange.
Naris reached behind her head and prepared to remove the rope around the lace mask.
Naris’ disfigurement was what bothered her the most. To expose her flaws in front of outsiders, especially in front of a beautiful woman like Madam Brulee, Naris felt even more embarrassed.
Her fingers were trembling.
Although the trembling wasn’t obvious, Madam Brulee still noticed it.
Although Naris was very afraid, she didn’t hesitate when untying the rope.
Her gaze was so resolute and without hesitation.
It could be seen that she really planned to abandon her dignity in exchange for a chance for her friend.
Just as Naris was about to take off her lace mask, she suddenly heard Madam Brulee laugh. “Hehe.”
Madam Brulee pressed her hand on Naris’ mask that was about to fall. Then, she looked at Naris with a smile and said in a low voice, “Naris, I was just teasing you. Put on your mask now.”
When she saw the scales behind Naris’ ears, Madam Brulee had already guessed how terrifying Naris’ true appearance would be.
There was no woman who didn’t care about her looks.
Madam Brulee wasn’t an unscrupulous woman who liked to make fun of other people’s flaws for fun.
She was just testing how serious Naris was.
The moment Naris was willing to put down her dignity for her friend, she obtained Madam Brulee’s respect.
Seeing that Naris had not moved, as if she was stunned, Madam Brulee lifted the hem of her skirt and stood up. She walked around the coffee table and stood behind Naris, then she personally helped Naris retie the rope of her mask.
Madam Brulee said softly, “Naris, your friendship with your friend is worth me making an exception to help you this time.”
Naris finally came back to her senses.
She looked up at Madam Brew in a daze. Seeing the sincere and kind smile on Madam Brulee’s face, she realized that Madam Brulee’s goal wasn’t to humiliate her at all.
What she wanted was just Naris’ attitude.
Naris’ actions passed Madam Brulee’s test.
Tears welled up in Naris’ eyes as she said in a choked voice, “Thank you, Madam. You’re too kind.”
After tying the rope around Naris’ mask, Madam Brulee walked to her seat and sat down again. Then, she asked slowly, “Tell me, what problem did your friends encounter?”
However, what Naris was about to say exceeded Madam Brulee’s expectations.
Naris said calmly, “Madam, my three friends are experts who had ascended from the Holy Spirit Continent. The three of them successfully obtained S-rank identity cards.”
Madam Brulee already knew about this. She nodded and asked, “Are they looking for the mayor’s help?”
But Naris shook her head.
Seeing this, Madam Brulee became puzzled.
They had gone through so much trouble to meet the mayor, but they didn’t need the mayor’s help. Then what was their purpose?
Madam Brulee couldn’t guess it, so she didn’t say anything.
Naris took the initiative to mention, “It’s like this. The oldest man among them is not a Beast Tamer, but a Purifying Spirit Master. It’s said that a Purifying Spirit Master is a profession unique to the Holy Spirit Continent. A Purifying Spirit Master doesn’t cultivate spiritual power, but psychic power.”
This was the first time Madam Brulee had heard of a profession such as Purifying Spirit Master.
She asked in surprise, “What is psychic power?”
Naris conveyed Yu Huang’s words to Madam Brulee word by word. She said, “Psychic power is benign psychic energy. There is spiritual power, evil thoughts, and ghost energy in this world. Naturally, there is also benign psychic energy. It is said that only people with pure hearts have the precious chance of comprehending the Psychic Pearl, cultivating the Purifying Spirit Art, and becoming a Purifying Spirit Master.”
Madam Brulee’s eyes lit up.
If what Naris said was true.
In that case, did that mean that the citizens of the Central Continent who had not successfully awakened their beast forms had a chance of becoming Purifying Spirit Masters?!
At the thought of this, Madam Brulee’s heart raced.
