As A Cardinal, I Don't Do Overtime Chapter 153

It can't be because of Pope Monn, can it?
This thought appeared in Asher's mind.
It was as if she had just figured out something.
That's right!
It was because of Pope Monn!
Otherwise, what other reason would there be for a woman to have such a strong sense of dissatisfaction towards a woman she had never met?
The only reason would be because of a man!
Although Asher had never experienced this, her instincts as a woman made her think of it instantly.
At the same time, through this matter, Asher also understood the thoughts in Ace's heart.
It seemed that this Saintess Ace had some inappropriate thoughts about Monn's.
However, could the Saintess and the Pope of the Orthodox Church be together?
At this moment, Asher's heart also wondered if others had doubts about this situation after they found out?
Her mother had told her that there had never been cases of members of the Orthodox Church getting married.
Could it be unrequited love?
Or love that could never happen?
At this moment, Asher, who yearned for love stories, suddenly thought of countless miserable and tragic romantic scenes.
She was immersed in her own world for a long time.
Some tears even appeared in her eyes. She was moved by her own imagination.
Seeing Asher like this, Ace shivered.
She had goosebumps all over.
She hid away in disgust.
At night.
It was getting cold.
There were only a few dim lights in Monn's new castle.
The castle was so big that Monn and the others only needed to light up their own rooms.
Monn and the others had a different dinner tonight.
To celebrate Monn's promotion and the housewarming,
Ace spent a lot of money to make a very rich dinner.
Of course, this dinner was also fully sponsored by Ace.

Monn didn't pay at all.
Facing Monn, Ace had no way at all.
But Ace didn't hate him then. She also liked the feeling of Monn spending her money.
This time, she felt a sense of accomplishment.
And of course, Asher shamelessly stayed.
On one hand, it was too lonely in the church, being by herself, which made her a little scared.
On the other hand...
"Mmm! Yummy! Yummy!"
At the dinner table, watching Asher wolfing down the food and stuffing her cheeks,
Monn and the other two were silent.
It was unbelievable that a girl with such a delicate appearance,
Ate like she were ten men.
This contrast shocked Monn and the rest.
They stared at her for a while.
Asher finished eating first.
After eating, Asher seemed to have suddenly changed into another person.
She elegantly picked up a napkin, and slowly and gently wiped her pink lips.
This naturalness made Monn and the other two look at her in a new light.
They were impressed.
At this time, Asher saw that Monn and the other two had stopped eating and were staring at her.
This made her a little shy.
She hurriedly said, "Hurry up and continue eating!"
Eat?
Eat what?
Monn, Ace, and Alma stared blankly at the leftovers in front of them.
Their hearts were full of confusion.
At this moment, Asher also realized what she had done.
Because it was too delicious, she couldn't help but eat it all.
This... was so awkward!
Asher lowered her head, while her cheeks and ears gradually turned red.
They became pink and tender.
Monn was silent for quite a while.
Then he said calmly, "It's okay."
When he said this, both Ace and Alma looked at him in disbelief.
Especially Ace, since when was Monn so nice!

Did he really start to fancy this elf?
When she thought of this, Ace immediately got emotional.
Across from her, when Asher heard this, tears immediately welled up in her eyes.
She looked at Monn with teary eyes.
She felt that Pope Monn was really a good person.
Not only did he save her, but he was also not angry at all when she ate his food.
That was great!
At this moment, Asher wished that she could fly back to the elves and tell her mother.
There were actually really good people among the humans!
Just as Ace was looking at Monn in doubt,
Monn said again, "Uh, don't worry, we will definitely send someone to send you back!"
This time, Monn's tone was very firm.
He even began to regret not sending her back to the Elf Forest.
It was really too inappropriate!
He regretted it!
Monn was determined to not keep her for another day. Otherwise, wouldn't his money be eaten up by her in an instant?
No way!
Thinking of this, Monn became more serious about sending her back!
Hearing Monn's words, Ace instantly understood Monn's intentions.
The tension in her heart was instantly released, and she heaved a sigh of relief.
At the same time, she felt that it was funny.
As expected, Monn was still Monn. After seeing how gluttonous this elf was, he immediately dismissed the idea of waiting for her people to send her back.
He immediately decided to send someone to send her back.
This matter was indeed urgent to Monn.
Alma also blinked her eyes, and the little mouth hidden under the table secretly smiled.
Meanwhile, Asher was a little confused.
Why did the topic change so quickly?
But she did not think too much about it, and only asked in puzzlement, "Didn't you say that you were going to wait for my people to come and pick me up?"
"I can't wait anymore!"
Monn immediately replied.
"The elves will be anxious if they don't see you for a day. In order to not worry your people, I've decided to send someone to send you back tomorrow!"
Asher blinked and said, "It doesn't matter. Just write a letter to them. This is my first time in a human city. I haven't stayed long enough."
Hearing Asher's words, Monn's face instantly froze.
He regretted even more that he didn't send someone to send her back.
He now wished that he could travel back to daytime and give himself a vicious slap!
I'll catch you slacking off again!
But Monn didn't give up, and gave all kinds of reasons to make her go home quickly.
But Asher was unmoved.
She had come out from the outside world out of curiosity.
And under the protection of Monn and the Orthodox Church,
Asher felt that she didn't have to go back so quickly.
She wanted to wander around here longer first.
Moreover, there was such delicious food,
That she couldn't eat it in the Elf Forest.
Thinking of the delicious food, Asher smiled.
The taste of the food was still lingering on her tongue.
She even licked it again with her little pink tongue.
This appearance scared Monn even more.
He quickly covered his money.

Lineage Saga (Kingdom Building Fantasy)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The continent of Erdenia is in flux, nations large and small move to swallow their neighbors. Roving bands of marauders pillage the countryside, and the seas are choked with piracy. Against this backdrop upon the central island of Syroneika exists the Mercan League, an alliance of city states ruled by the Archon from his seat in the Capital, Merlabria. Yet all is not well beneath the surface. The Archon’s health is waning, while the House of Mercan appears on the verge of conflict. Both princes vie for the Archonship, with the aristocracy close behind looking to settle old scores. In the immediate west the Althai Federation is in a state of civil war, the conflict spilling over the border into the League, while nobles’ squabble over petty slights. In this time of growing conflict, the Archon has summoned the warlord of the southern frontier, bulwark against the horrors of the dark forest, and former Grand Scholar of the court. Behind the scenes pieces are in play, and the Scholar possesses numerous enemies, many still envious of his meteoric rise to power. A simple trip to the capital may be more than it appears. However, the branches of fate are fickle things, a single encounter could change the course of history. Or perhaps that is simply the will of fate, and nothing has changed at all, who could know?

Getting Hard (Journey of a Tank)
Herald Stone always built tank characters in every MMORPG he played. To be immortal—that was his first Goal, a simple childhood dream. However, the turbulent realities of life put an end to his gaming days. Years passed, and Herald Stone, now having attained success and stability, was presented with the opportunity to redeem himself...to fulfill his first Goal. Trivial? Childish? Others might think so. But Herald Stone always fulfilled his Goals—every single one. No matter what. Immortality beckoned in Mother Core Online, and this time Herald Stone would answer. Choosing a long-forgotten race, hidden away in an unknown region, the journey of an immortal tank begins. This is the tale of Herald Stone...getting hard. Schedule: Mon-Wed-Fri-Sat, 10am Central/ 3pm GMT. ~1.8k-2.3k words per chapter. Also published on Scribblehub. My other ongoing story: REND | Royal Road Expect a focus on building a true tank in MMORPGs. Heavy game elements and numbers are present. But actual math will take a backseat to strategies involving skill builds and synergies that steadily become more complex while remaining understandable. The main character is atypical in LitRPGs or web novels as a whole. He might take some getting used to. Character arcs will develop over a long period. What you see now will be different as the main character changes. The start of Getting Hard is slow-paced (more so than others of the genre) and includes world-building and character development before focusing on the LitRPG.
