My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character!

Chapter 132: Chapter 132: Hell's Door

At first, he was confused about why he was being banished from the Alchemy Hall. But when he replayed the scene in his mind, he noticed a few things that he hadn't thought about before.

The Guards kept saying that he wasn't Elder Li. And Eren also called him by his own name. At that time, he was confused. But everything started making sense in his mind now.

The reason they didn't believe that he was Elder Li was because someone else used his name. And they told him that he was banished when he was called Elder Ren.

It was clear who was actually banished and who stole his name.

....

The night passed, and with the first light of dawn, Ye Liang reached the Ninth Peak.

He placed the bags filled with herbs at the foot of the mountain, gazing up at the towering height of the mountain peak.

He was filled with exhaustion and knew that he lacked the strength to climb any further.

Slumping to the ground, Ye Liang rested his back against a rock. His eyes clouded with disappointment while looking at the notification in front of him.

[You have failed to finish the Weekly Quest]

[A penalty will be applied to you]

He had carefully planned to kill Yu Lin to complete this weekly quest, only to fail in the end.

"My luck has truly been bad ever since I entered this damned sect."

Not only did he fail to finish the quest, but he also suffered from a penalty.

The worst part was that he didn't even know which penalty he was going to receive at the start of the quest. It was like a lucky draw for him... Or rather, an unlucky draw.

An illusory slot machine appeared before him with a big red button that seemed to mock his misfortune.

Despite knowing that pressing it would reveal his punishment, he hesitated, unsure if he was prepared to face the consequences.

However, with a deep breath, he steeled his resolve and pressed the button, bracing himself for whatever awaited him.

[Congratulations Host, you have won the Penalty of Laughter]

[Penalty of laughter has been activated]

[For the next one week, you will start laughing at irregular intervals]

Ye Liang's lips twitched at the sight of the penalty. However, before he could even have the chance to curse this penalty, he started laughing randomly.

....

The Holy Empire was established in the Western Continent. It was said that the Holy Empire was blessed by the goddess herself.

There was not a single person in the Holy Empire who slept hungry. The crops in the Holy Empire always flourished. There was never any natural disaster that wrecked the Holy Empire either.

Amongst the four continents, the Western Continent was called the most prosperous continent as well.

Every morning, tens of thousands of people could be seen in front of the Holy Church, praying to the Goddess. They also hoped to catch sight of the Holy Priestess, who was the true guardian of the Continent.

The Holy Priestess was not the Empress. She did not rule over the Empire. Still, she had more authority than everyone else in the Empire.

If she wanted to become the Empress, even the Holy Emperor was going to step aside for her. But she had no interest in ruling over the Empire.

She only spent most of her time inside the Holy Church, immersed in prayers to the Goddess.

Currently, the Holy Priestess stood on a balcony, her hands gracefully waving towards the worshippers below as she bestowed blessings upon them.

"Is the report accurate?" she inquired, her gaze never wavering from the gathered crowd.

"That is the information we have received. Unfortunately, there have been no further updates. It appears our spy has been caught," responded a priest in a Knight's attire. "With this, the last of our spies is dead as well."

"I see. So, the Necromancer Tower is indeed plotting to open Hell's door. Those vile beings..."

"Shall we prepare for the Holy War?" The Crusader asked.

The Holy Priestess stopped waving her hand. The smile on her lips disappeared while she turned around and went inside.

She stepped before the Goddess' Status and looked up.

The Crusader stopped behind her.

"It is not the time yet. If Hell's door is opened, you can't go near it. The Northern Continent is not in the Goddess' Domain. You will only bring more corruption to your soul and lose the blessing."

"Even if I lose the protection of the divine being, I would still fight to protect our people!" the Crusader proudly stated.

"I know you will. But will you be able to go past that man? If you go there, that land will only Devourer your divine blessing and use it to keep Hell's Door open for even longer."

"Then what are we to do?" The Crusader asked. "Can we do nothing but watch? Even if the door can only be opened for a few minutes, that's more than enough. Who knows what might cross the threshold in that short time."

"Who said we can't do anything?" The Priestess asked. "With the Goddess' Will, what can't be done?"

"What do you mean?" The Crusader asked, confused.

"What do you think Feng Yu will do if her Elders and disciples are killed in the Northern Continent by Necromancer Tower? Will she take it as an act of war from Necromancer Tower?"

Although it was a question from the Priestess, but more than a question, her words carried an answer.

"You mean... Using a borrowed knife?" The Crusader thought of something. "But that-"

The Priestess didn't let him finish.

She commanded, "Write an invitation for me..."

.....

Eren stood in front of the window, looking at the rising sun.

Today was a long day, where he had to select disciples who will be going with him to annihilate the sects of the Eastern Continent.

However, he also hadn't forgotten that he had more important things to worry about. He was still focused on the book that he had read. He still didn't know much about the other three books this world was made from.

All he knew were their names.

"Demon Lord's Ascent."

"Revenge of the Fallen Priestess."

"Rebirth of the SSS Rank Hero."

"And lastly, The Necromancer Who Returned from Hell."
