957 Monica's Ambition
"Aren't you afraid of destroying the character you used to play?"
Facing Beta's question, Monica chuckled and said, "Not afraid. It is normal for women to be moved by handsome men. Besides, my current identity was originally a poor person, but now I am a step to reach the sky and be arrogant."
Beta was a little surprised, "You know human nature quite well."
"I don't know much about it. I just observed how women from poor origins will behave when they suddenly reach a high position. Most of them will be like this, only one or two can be more restrained occasionally."
Beta nodded, “It’s the same for both men and women.”
Monica continued, "Why, you, the Pope of the God of Wealth, want to play a novice, will you feel very suffocating? And if you are discovered, your sect's reputation will be lost."
Beta touched his dyed hair and his pair of eyes disguised as brown. "Only people can't see it. And who would have thought that a pope would personally run to the enemy's base camp undercover."
Speaking of this, Monica also admired "You are the most courageous and powerful person I have ever met. This is usually done by subordinates. The leader will take action in person. This is the first time I have seen it."
"What should we do next?" Beta asked.
Monica thought for a while and said, "It depends on how much time you have. If you have enough time to stay in the city, then we can act cautiously. If you have less time, then use some radical approach."
"Be careful," Beta said, "after all, safety is the first."
Monica looked at him in surprise "Are you worried about me?"
Her expression suddenly became excited, "Does this mean you think of me as your own?"
Beta said lightly, "After all, you are Sasha's eldest sister, and I have no direct conflict with you. As long as you don't blame me for ruining your good things in Francis."
Monica said happily, "Just pass the past. Anyway, I am not as interested in the throne as you think."
Beta always felt that Monica was a woman with great ambitions. But she knew that Sasha had become the queen and did not go back to cause trouble for Sasha, but ran to the Holy City of Life and started from scratch again.
I have to say that those who are capable can survive anywhere.
In just over a year, she actually climbed to the bishop's level.
"Since you have enough time, I can take my time. Do something to accumulate reputation first." Monica thought for a while and said, "I will continue to treat the poor for free. But I've been short of money recently. Beta, why don't you invest in me, just like other businessmen investing in the young nobles they like."
“How much do you need?”
Although Beta's tone was calm, she had confidence.
Monica heard this confidence and said bluntly, "The more you have, the better."
As soon as Beta waved his hand, a pile of gems scattered on the table. There were at least hundreds, each of which was about the size of a baby's fist.
These colorful "stones" that reflect bright light made Monica scream.
Although she never thought these things were beautiful when she was in the Kingdom of Francis before, now she has different status and is short of money at the beginning, and she also knows how to start to appreciate the "beauty" of these things.
After all, people are poor and have short ambitions.
Moreover, due to Beta's "makes" recently, most types of gems have become a strategic resource. Depending on the purpose, the price has at least doubled, and some scarce gems have increased their value several times.
Take one of these gems out and the gold coins they get can maintain her activity funds for a long time.
"All these are mine?"
"I've given it to you." Beta nodded.
"Are you going to support you or you going to support me?" Monica exclaimed, and she suddenly clasped her hands and said, "With these gems, I suddenly had an idea."
Beta looked at her, waiting for her explanation.
"Our divine saint likes gems very much," Monica said. "Maybe I can use these gems to get in touch with her. Do you have any opinions?"
Beta shook his head, "I am not familiar with the God of Life, you can follow your own steps."
Monica smiled slightly, and even the gloomy and cold feeling on her body became weaker. "You really trust me."
Beta just smiled and didn't speak.
He always feels that if you use people, you don’t need to doubt others. If the other party really hurts him, it is because he doesn’t know the person, and he can’t see the other party’s true face during a long time of getting along.
This is a matter of ability.
And employing people is a matter of method.
These two do not conflict.
"Then you can rest here first. Tomorrow, go to the slums with me to help them with free medical treatment."
Beta looked around, "It seems that there is only one bed here."
"We can sleep together..." Monica suddenly pretended to be very aggrieved. "Do you have the heart to let me sleep on the floor alone?"
Beta chuckled, flashed into the mansion art space.
Looking at the empty bedroom, Monica twitched, looking quite unhappy. But she knew that Beta must have looked at her in another plane.
Then she was sleeping with her clothes. She slept very hard and slept very heavily. When she woke up, the sun was shining on the bed.
Monica woke up, stood up suddenly, and then saw a picture that made her a little confused.
Beta sat at the table and slowly ate a hearty breakfast, and beside him was a pretty but cold maid serving him.
The clothes worn by the maid made Monica feel a little familiar. After thinking about it carefully, I found that this was the one that Beta gave her to her after she broke her clothes last time.
It turned out to be this woman's... No, Monica was completely awakened from the confusion and sleepiness of getting up.
"Beta...Who is this woman? And where did you get these breakfasts?"
Beta gently patted the table, "Don't ask so much, let's talk about it after breakfast."
oh!
Although she was having breakfast, Monica looked at Julie beside her for no reason. After finishing her meal, she stared at Beta blankly, hoping that he would give her an explanation.
Any woman who sees another beautiful woman in her home will have a similar reaction.
"This is my maid, Julie." Beta said, "and she is usually responsible for taking care of my food, clothing, and daily life."
"Often?" Monica was very smart. She immediately thought of a very reliable possibility. "Your magic space can hide a living person."
Beta nodded, waved his hand and put Julie in the mansion art space.
"This is really amazing." Monica said in a daze. "The space that can hide a living person has not appeared in many years."
Beta smiled indifferently.
Monica looked at Beta, wanting to speak but stopping.
"You can't learn it, give up." Beta knew what she was thinking, so she blocked her mouth first. "You don't have space talent, I can see it. You can barely learn simple space magic, but the space theory involved in luxury space is not something you can touch."
Monica sighed a long sigh, feeling a little disappointed.
The magic space that can hide people must be very large. With such a large space, it is quite a matter of being at home or going out. After all, when you put important things inside, who can take them out, and it is convenient to store and withdraw them, which can save a lot of effort.
"Then let's go to the slum first."
Monica walked out of the bedroom and saw three professionals hired yesterday waiting not far ahead.
When the three of them saw the hostess and Beta come out together, their eyes were all weird. Everyone would be upset when the cabbage they wanted to give was first given by others.
Starting from the rich area and reaching the slum, Monica walked into a low house with a simple table and a simple chair.
Monica sat on the chair, and the poor people next to her immediately ran around to tell each other.
"Ms. Selia, I'm here to give us free treatment again."
Seeing this scene, Beta was a little surprised.
Then something even more surprised happened. When Monica was treating the poor, she had a very gentle smile on her face. Even if the poor were dirty or smelly, she did not feel any impatient.
Such expressions last from the beginning to the end.
She could take a few bites of hard and uneasy dry food from the poor.
Since getting along with each other for this period of time, Beta feels that Monica is definitely not such a patient person. In order to realize her ambitions, she can completely hide her nature, which is also a kind of ability.
At least Beta felt that she couldn't do that.
At night, Monica dragged her tired body and walked back. The three people looked at her, with a little disdain.
And after just such a day, their eyes changed a lot, at least they had a little more admiration.
Most of the mercenaries are civilians and even poor people. They will have some respect for such pastors who are willing to treat civilians for free.
Back in the bedroom, Beta casts a magic to drive away fatigue at Monica, and says, "If you can continue today's things, the Saint may compete in the future."
"I don't want to!" Monica shook her head. "The saint can only be a dozen or twenty years. And I can't find a man during this period. It's more just a symbol and more meaningless. If possible, I would rather be a female pope."
When Monica spoke, her ambitions in her eyes began to burn like a raging flame.
Beta felt that Monica was full of action.
It's just that it's a bit difficult to be a female pope. After all, there's no precedent, and it's even harder than becoming a queen. .
