Joshua shook his head and said. “It’s not me. I really want to go with you guys but I know that with my first-level abilities, I will only be a burden, so I will not trouble Great Messenger. I will stay at the Saint Nazaire as a witch doctor while Master Lea and you are not around and guard the tribe while awaiting for your return.”
Gu Mengmeng thought about it. There are many places she has to visit in a year – Sauder has Hede and Jialue so she definitely has to visit her two sons and Sandy there; Zacharias has Chixuan and Kanwu so she also has to make time to visit them and Natalie. As the Saintess of the Snake King valley, even if she does not return every year, she still needed to make an appearance frequently to show that she was still alive and for people to remember the Snake King valley. This would deter people from taking advantage of the winter season to sneak into the Snake King valley with ill intentions and misbehave.
Therefore, after taking into account all these, there was limited time that she had to stay in Saint Nazaire in a year.
Even if Saint Nazaire had 16 valued females, and another eight new young beasts now, she indeed needed another witch doctor.
But…
Could she trust someone who was related to Cole?
“Fine, from today onwards, you are the witch doctor of Saint Nazaire.” Lea held back Gu Mengmeng’s shoulders and agreed to it readily.
“Lea.” Gu Mengmeng frowned. She was not blaming him for making his own decision but because she could not trust in a person sent by Cole.
Lea rubbed Gu Mengmeng’s chin, then with an expression as if he was seeking her favour, said, “With someone replacing me as the witch doctor, I can finally have free time to focus on serving you, isn’t that great? My Queen.”
“But…” Gu Mengmeng felt her heart itching as she was always susceptible to Lea’s flirt.
Lea lightly kissed her lips and said. “This fellow had wanted to cross the galaxy to be by your side, so he definitely won’t do anything dumb to drown himself. If he really did that… don’t worry, Elvis and I have plenty of ways for him to be unable to live or die in peace.”
Gu Mengmeng thought about it – if Cole had really used Joshua to cause chaos to Saint Nazaire, not only torturing Joshua, even torturing Cole was useless.
As if he had seen her thoughts, Lea softly bit Gu Mengmeng’s left ear and said. “In the past, to compete with Cole, I have regarded Saint Nazaire with utmost importance. But because of this, I had almost lost you. Now, Saint Nazaire is nothing to me… Hah, it is a tribe that even I no longer care about, do you think Cole is still interested in destroying it?”
Gu Mengmeng pondered – without the goalkeeper, would there be the desire to shoot a goal?
She laughed softly and responded. “I understand, we shall just listen to you.”
“Good girl.” Lea gently kiseed Gu Mengmeng’s forehead. Then, he whispered at her ears, “from today onwards, I am no longer the witch doctor of Saint Nazaire. I only belong to you, Ninth Highness.”
Gu Mengmeng laughed lightly and crossed his neck to kiss his cheek, saying, “Salutations to Your Highness.”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. Lea praised, “such a well-behaved girl.”
Gu Mengmeng lightly hit Lea’s chest, then returned to her original position. After keeping the playful smile on her face, she turned to look at Joshua’s face and said, “witch doctor, can you now tell me, who is the person who can lead the way?”
Joshua had been watching the both of them using the corner of his eyes the whole time when they were fooling around with each other.
