Steel steam and flame

Emotions fermented and intensified in the not-so-wide elevator, and Doris's eyes were filled with tears in a short period of time. The small container in the eyes could not bear such a large amount, so they slipped down one after another along the cheeks that had not lost their rosy color, and hit the hat that Cassia bought Doris.

The protective door of the elevator was still wide open, and the warm air flowing in the hotel corridor swept in. It failed to completely dry and evaporate Doris' tears, but it made the air around the two of them even hotter.

Opening her mouth but not knowing what words of comfort she should say, Cassia realized that Doris was completely different from the environment in which she grew up. The training method in the military school is to obtain pure high-efficiency killing machines. They can complete every order given more accurately, and will only have a very low failure rate.

But for the training of a saint like Doris, every step has been carefully calculated and considered by the exclusive school in the church. They also know what kind of people and what kind of saints are needed in the church. Making certain things stylized and run in a streamlined manner is what the empire is best at. From the time they were born, the probability of them coming into contact with things on Cassia's level was almost zero. They enjoy the best teachers, the best educational resources and training methods. And as a saint, even if the belief in the gods enshrined in the temple cannot be said to be fanatical, at least in their hearts, they can absolutely trust them and express their innermost existence without hesitation. As the supreme ruler of the Holy Emperor Hall, the Holy Emperor, who considers himself the representative of the gods, is naturally the person whom these saints who have been educated in a closed society trust and admire the most.

The life of a saint is very beautiful, because throughout her life, there are almost all kinds of people who block the dark side of the world from their eyes. Just like a beautiful small garden, what they see is always the blooming flowers and lush green grass in spring. But it can also be said to be unfortunate. The identities of the saints are not eternal, and they are not existences that cannot be desecrated. During the selection process, many people were eliminated in terms of appearance. In the few years after adulthood, as their age and body grow, more and more people will be interested in them, and they will be reduced to almost commodities, which is also the fate of many of them. The remaining people are almost married to young men from noble families. From then on, it is difficult for them to have any troubles in their lives.

"No, no one can abandon you. You have to know that you will be a very important person to them, now and in the future." Cassia squatted down and looked directly into Doris's eyes and said, The color inside became much darker. "With me and the housekeepers who are coming over, you will not be harmed."

"real?"

"Do I look like a liar?" Cassia's voice was gentle and gentle. "Didn't the reason why the gods became gods have gone through a lot of hardships and hardships? It is written in the theology books that so many gods have the characteristics Your character, and the spirit of perseverance and vigilance in the face of huge disasters, you must have forgotten them all after studying for so long."

"Of course not. I've always been good in my theology classes."

Touching Doris' head, Cassia continued what she just said, "So since we believe in the gods enshrined in the church, we should not just keep it in our hearts, but should practice it. Spirit and will. The gods are everywhere, and maybe they are looking at you right now and crying and saying that they don’t trust you anymore and then abandoned you. In this way, the gods will really get angry and fulfill what you say. Put your tears away Come on, things are not at all what you think. At least my brother is always by your side now. I will help you carry the suitcase for a long time in the future, until you can lift it without any effort. "

"Is this a test for me from the gods and the Holy Emperor?" Doris blinked and asked, revealing her thoughts.

"Yeah, I think that's it."

After arriving in the room, Doris's mental state improved a lot, and within a short time, she fell asleep lying on the low table. Cassia quietly went over and closed the curtains. Even in the evening when night was approaching, the fiery red sunlight in summer was still extremely dazzling.

Putting Doris' box next to her, his eyes shifted from the sleeping Doris to the water glass in front of him. Cassia thought about it alone for a while, and finally decided to place the gold skull wrapped in red cloth separately from the black leather box.

From Doris's words, we don't know the specific method by which the housekeepers found her. But if the problem does not lie with Doris, then the only things that can be used as identification are these everyday objects.

So after getting off the train, Cassia did not temporarily replace the box with a good one because it was broken. On the way here, even if she bought a more suitable hat, Cassia did not let Doris throw away the original unsuitable hat. Every item may have the marks made by the butlers, it is impossible not to have it.

Regardless of whether their guess was correct or which branch the route should take, they could not leave Doris alone. The only mystery now is what their purpose is.

Then the skull and the black box were separated into different rooms. Cassia arranged all the conceivable situations, set the reminder device, and then returned to the original room. The sky was half dark at this time, and the rest was a dull gray-white color.

After dinner, the curtains were reopened and the windows were filled with the lights of the Oriya region at night. Doris stayed beside Cassia and watched this scene through the window for a long time. In the sky as deep as a pool of water, the stars corresponded to each other, and there was a flowing light.

Somewhat unexpectedly, while scanning these night scenes, Cassia saw a huge colorful advertising board with the logo of the giant arms company Webley.

"A branch that sells steam locomotives?" Looking at the car-like logo under the billboard, Cassia murmured.

After hearing this, Doris raised her head and looked at Cassia's calm face, and then returned her gaze to the flowing light spot. It wasn't until his eyes became sore that he returned to the room and took out the theological books to read. Cassia's words in the elevator had a great impact on her.
