Wizard From Afar

Shake the sharp short blade lightly, cut the white bread into pieces like a little song, smear it with a little bit of tender yellow cheese, and use the tip of the knife to pick it up.

Well... It would be perfect if I could have another glass of wine.

The clean and tidy room, the peaceful atmosphere, and the morning light through the windows, together make up this perfect morning that could not be more perfect. Loren, who was in a good mood, enjoyed the breakfast quietly, not at all like being under house arrest.

Just what he knew, there were two Holy Cross Church cavalry outside his door, and there should be others nearby if it was good. As long as you dare to get out of the room, three knives and six holes are definitely not the worst result.

What happened last night?

I managed to clean up the skinny wizard and the two mercenaries, and then the people from Holy Cross Church arrived-it was only half a day away, indicating that the opponent came earlier than myself, and There is also a fully armed cavalry team, I am afraid it is definitely not just a simple matter of a new priest taking office.

Did the other party come for Father Anthony?

This is possible, but it is not completely certain, but at least it should be one of the goals. The appearance of such a big fanfare in Ancient Wood Town, the picture is definitely not small.

If the gloves or the remaining bottles of alchemy composition are still there, I might find a way to quietly leave from here, but the other party obviously won’t leave anything to myself—from the time he came in, Loren was on him. All the things, including the "bright silver", were taken away, leaving him with a short blade.

From last night until now, Loren has always been in this room, and the other party didn't mean to talk to him and understand the situation. If it is not for this purpose, what is the purpose of holding yourself here?

Miss your mouth?

Loren's mouth curled up slightly, and he felt that he was approaching the truth of the whole incident. It's just a little bit worse and I haven't figured it out, it's a difference of only one level window paper, the "sir" hiding in the shadow will appear in front of him.

It takes only one day from Ancient Wood Town to Wimpal Academy. Four days after Dalton got the news of Father Anthony’s death, the talents from Holy Cross Church came to the Academy-minus the time difference between them, we can see that After Dalton returned from Ancient Wood Town, the church moved towards Ancient Wood Town came.

This is definitely not a coincidence, and there has never been a coincidence in the world. Although Dalton didn't say it clearly, he must have noticed something inadvertently and attracted the attention of the church. This is the only reasonable explanation.

The people in the church should not be so frenzied to kill a priest. So what is the origin of this group of people, and what are they plotting? It seems too weird to say that these people have nothing to do with the church. Otherwise, why doesn't the time for the two groups of people appear for even half a day?

Loren, who was full of messy information, didn't even hear the sound of knocking on the door. He didn't react until someone walked into the room. The little priest with a nervous face came into his eyes.

"Very good, after I heard about what happened last night, I thought you... Holy Cross bless you!" The nervous and happy little priest quickly retracted the second half of the sentence, very concerned Stepped up and asked: "Your Excellency Loren Torino, are you okay."

"Everything is business as usual." Loren shrugged his shoulders, and asked "randomly": "It's outside, now How is it-are there many believers outside the church?"

"Thank the Holy Cross for making us through the most difficult days. Of course, Lord Farnesis and the warriors who came with him While sitting down, the little priest didn't forget to say a few words gratefully: "Now everything in Ancient Wood Town has returned to normal, Lord Farnesis has temporarily taken over here, and the rest just waits for the new priest to come."

Farnesis...It's the one who came to the Academy last time. Loren's heart is clear: "This lord, must be very religious, right? I heard that he is not very friendly to people like me. "

"Uh...it is true, but it is only because of the belief in the Holy Cross. Apart from this is still very friendly." The little priest defended a bit embarrassingly: "I have explained to the adults. All this is a misunderstanding. You and those blasphemy guys are not in the same group, and the adults have already believed it."

Is it clear from the very beginning...Loren is in With a sneer from the bottom of my heart, a grateful deep green on his face: "I am so grateful. Although I am a wizard, I am still a citizen of the Holy Cross. Since I am a devout believer, it should not be because of the difference in identity. Treat them differently!"

"Yes, I think so too!" The little priest was a little excited nodded: "Believers should not be different because of their status. In front of the Holy Cross, we are all It is the same humble soul, we are all lambs eager to go to heaven!"

"It's just that...no matter it is Father Anthony or Lord Farnesis, they don't support my point of view." The little priest is a little regretful. Shook his head: "Maybe it's just my wishful thinking..."

"no no no, you are not wrong, they are just imprisoned by the thoughts of the past, and your thoughts are the future." Loren very Determined to look at the little priest: "Trust me, this kind of thinking will definitely become more and more popular in the near future-so you don't need to doubt yourself, stick to it!"

"Uh...thank you "Little priest nodded: "But I don’t think you should be so disgusted with Farnesis. The great talent is-after all If his warriors arrived in time last night, we might not be able to sit here and chat, right? "

Huh?

Loren only froze for a moment, before regaining his grateful expression: "Ah... you are right, but fortunately they came in time, otherwise I will I don't know if I can still catch my breath. "

"Everyone is very grateful to them too. "The little priest showed a "sure enough" expression: "This is the warrior sheltered by the Holy Cross, always so reliable!" "

Smiling Loren and the little priest had a chat without a word. By the way, they tried their best to use each other’s mouth to inquire about the current situation, the recent rumors of Ancient Wood Town, and the Lord Farnesis. What are you doing here?

Although the little priest knows almost everything, he is just an apprentice priest, impossible to know how much inside information. I can come here to see myself, I’m afraid It was the Lord Farnesis deliberately arranged to dispel his vigilance.

"Bang——! "

The door was knocked open, and the startled little priest almost yelled out. After seeing the entourage of Mr. Farnesis coming in, he quickly closed his mouth.

"Lord Farnesis wants to see you, wizard. "The entourage looked at Loren with disgust, and didn't even bother to call his name: "Immediately! "

"As you bid. With a formulaic smile, Loren stood up and walked forward very casually-the other party was Knight who nearly stepped on his feet last night, and apparently remembered his "rudeness" at the time.

After seeing Loren following up, the indifferent Knight didn't even look at the little priest before turning and leaving.

After taking Loren outside the door, Knight stopped. He didn’t step forward anymore. Loren was nodded slightly and was about to go forward. Before he could go far, Knight’s right hand suddenly pressed Loren’s shoulder from his back, suddenly using force as if to pinch his shoulder blade. Broken.

"In front of Lord Farnesis, you should know what to say and what to say. "Knight's cold voice came: "My lord may be able to forgive you, but I won't. "

"I know how to measure. "Struggling to endure the pain in the shoulder, Loren said with a faint smile: "Please believe me, I will not say more in front of that adult, but you can rest assured. "

"You better understand what you are talking about, wizard! "Knight released his hand: "Under the light of the Holy Cross, all evil and magic will be invisible!" "

"Then borrow your auspicious words, Lord Knight" Loren took the opportunity to relax his shoulders: "Actually...I am also a devout Holy Cross believer. "

Of course, as to whether it is a devout believer of the "Church" of the Holy Cross... This is indeed open to question.
