Catherine was annoyed.
Why couldn't this guy understand plain human language?
She was doing this for his own good.
Using Shura Potion carries a mortality rate of ten percent.
No, it should be said to be thirty percent.
Because Su Chen chose to use the Second Rank Shura Potion.
Not only that, but he would also lose thirty years of his life...
Thinking of this, Catherine's expression turned a bit painful as she said, "Su Chen, I know you like me, but understand, I am Buddha's woman, do you get it?"
"Even if you really do as he says, he won't hand me over to you. He is just using you. Moreover, even if he fulfills his promise, when you die, I will still have to be his woman."
"When that time comes, I won't grieve for you, nor will I shed a single tear for you, I'll still coax Buddha every day, serve him, can you accept such an outcome?"
You die, I will not grieve for you, nor will I shed a single tear for you...
Such heartless words.
However, if Catherine was truly heartless, she would not be saying this.
She said this to dissuade Su Chen from his intention to use Shura Potion.
Better to live poorly than to die well.
Even if Su Chen gained great strength, but if his people were all dead.
Having more women, more money, what would it mean?
He was just being used by Buddha.
Maybe, in the end, his woman, his money, all would end up in Buddha's hands...
Even if that's the outcome, could Su Chen accept it?
"Minako, if I die, will you really not grieve for me?" Su Chen asked.
"No!" Catherine said with finality.
"Then I'm relieved. If I die, you definitely must not grieve, mustn't be sad... you should live even better than you are now!" Su Chen's face wore a radiant smile.
The smile was somewhat heartless.
Catherine didn't know what to do.
She didn't know how to convince this man.
He was the only man she cared about.
She didn't want him to die .
She would rather the one who died be her.
Even she herself did not know.
Catherine, the renowned Catastrophe Goddess Pandora, would actually be willing to die for a man.
A man... who she had known for less than a month.
Catherine gazed at Su Chen, sighed deeply after a long while, and said, "Su Chen, do you really like me?"
"Of course, aren't you beautiful?" Su Chen replied earnestly.
Although Catherine was raised by Buddha, and not selected to enter his mansion...
Her beauty was extraordinarily outstanding.
In fact, the reason why Buddha adopted Catherine was that the several-year-old Catherine looked already breathtakingly beautiful.
Catherine shook her head, "Pandora is not a goddess, it represents Calamity."
"Minako, even if you are Calamity, I have no regrets," Su Chen said deeply.
Facing Su Chen's straightforward confession, Catherine felt extremely conflicted.
Happy that a man loved her so much.
Willing to risk his life for her.
Sad because... she met Su Chen with such an identity...
At this moment, Catherine so wished she wasn't Buddha's woman.
Then, she could accept Su Chen's love.
Sadly, in reality, she was Buddha's woman.
Catherine turned her head away, her voice choked up as she said, "But I don't like you, my heart has only Buddha!"
"Minako, stop deceiving yourself, okay.
If you really only had Buddha in your heart, why didn't you expose me when you saw me sneak to the third floor?
Why didn't you expose me when you knew I was messing around with Minako Ozawa...
Why risk your life to save me...
Even preferring to be locked in Buddha's dungeon rather than reveal the cause of your injuries, it's because you didn't want to implicate me, right!
In fact, you do like me!"
Catherine's fists gradually clenched.
Did she like Su Chen?
But what she knew was that she couldn't like Su Chen.
Catherine turned back, her emotions becoming somewhat agitated, "Even if I did like you, so what? I am Buddha's woman, I'm destined to be his forever, and you cannot change that..."
Catherine's tone was filled with helplessness.
"What if I have the power to change it?" Su Chen asked, narrowing his eyes.
"Hehe..." Catherine just laughed.
The only possibility to change the fact that she was Buddha's woman was if Buddha was dead.
But was it possible for Buddha to die?
Many people had wanted Buddha dead.
But in the end, wasn't Buddha still alive and well?
And those who wanted him dead...
Had all vanished without a trace.
Furthermore, Buddha's strength was even more than just that.
He was also a member of the Organization...
Catherine had been exposed to some of Buddha's business, so she understood all the more how terrifying Buddha was.
Su Chen didn't say much more.
After all, he had his mission.
Rescuing the instructor was the most important thing.
This would not change.
He did have some feelings for Catherine.
But more than that, he wanted to get the information he needed through Catherine.
Of course, if possible, he would also be happy to rescue Catherine.
And now, what he needed to do was to use this Shura Potion.
Shura Potion had strong side effects for Ordinary People.
But for him, it was completely within an acceptable range.
With his physical condition, he should be able to withstand a Shura Potion of Fourth Rank or lower.
Using Fourth Rank, or a lower-rank Shura Potion, the forty percent mortality rate simply wouldn't occur.
At most, it would reduce his lifespan.
Then he also had Black Stone.
He felt that perhaps he could survive even using a Seventh Rank Shura Potion.
Of course, this was just his speculation.
After all, he didn't know how terrible the Seventh Rank Shura Potion really was.
Nor did he know the limits of Black Stone.
If it wasn't for a situation with no choice, Su Chen would definitely not opt for using the Seventh Rank Shura Potion.
Although, even for him now, a Seventh Rank Shura Potion would still offer a large improvement in capability.
But the power gained through using Shura Potion was far inferior to the power obtained on one's own.
Moreover, it's extremely difficult to acquire Shura Potion.
Ordinary Shura Potion.
For instance, First Rank, Second Rank Shura Potion.
