To the Holy See, Tasia's significance was undoubtedly far greater than that of Wayne, a boy who in the eyes of outsiders only received invitations from high-level officials because of his family fortune.
Although he also has a reputation as a genius in the royal capital, he is ultimately not as good as the Saints of Light Magic.
Devout believers believe that God's gaze guides everything in the world, but His existence itself has transcended the constraints of the mortal world and has neither form nor recognition. The world can only follow the marks he left and worship the projection he left in the mortal world.
Under God's silent gaze, the existence of tangible God's favored ones is naturally the best proof that the world can feel God's will and confirm that God is still paying attention to His ignorant believers.
Wayne knew very well the key points here, and was mentally prepared for the different treatment of people in the Holy See, so he did not care about these people. If it were him who was the senior leader of the Holy See, he would also value Tasia more.
The dormitories arranged for the two of them are not adjacent to each other. They belong to two ends of the corridor bridge, and the doors of the rooms are opposite to each other.
"Xiao Bai, just stay in the house and don't run around. I will prepare food for you every day before going out."
In Wayne's dormitory, in front of many outsiders, Wayne comforted Gouzi with a gentle tone.
But with his back to everyone, Wayne gave Xiaobai a warning look.
【——Don’t cause trouble for me. 】
Gouzi rolled his eyes at him and shook off Wayne's hand. He first circled Tasia beside him, raised his nose and smelled her scent, and then jumped to the seat on the other side. The upper burrow formed a ball, closed its eyes and rested.
Amused by its serious yet somewhat comical movements, Tasia couldn't help but bend down and touch its head.
"What a cute kid... But why does Mr. Wayne have to bring Xiaobai to the Holy See this time? Such a long journey must be quite a challenge for him."
"Well……"
Wayne glanced at Alex and Camille, who were also in the room.
This question was also asked to myself before setting off. At that time, Wayne replied with confidence - "This is my most beloved partner. I can't bear to live without it for a moment!"
But if he were to follow his true words at this moment, it would not take a second for Tasia to realize that he was talking nonsense.
He never had this problem when he was in the academy.
So Wayne said innocently: "I just want to take it out for a walk. The lifespan of a dog is only ten or twenty years. The moment we spend in the blink of an eye is a lifetime for them. If one day in the future It has to go back to being a dog, and it must be able to brag in front of its parents and fellow villagers that it has fully experienced many wonderful things in this world... uh, it's a dog."
"Such an opinion sounds really in line with Wayne-san's style."
Wayne originally wanted to ask what "consistent style" means, but Tasia did not wait for his response and continued to ask further: "If given the opportunity, Wayne would also like to travel around the world, right?"
Although it was a question, it sounded very confident, and Wayne subconsciously showed a surprised look.
How does she know.
"I do think so, but I just think about it in my heart for the time being."
Now, he has been firmly bound to the identity of [Wayne] by many people and many things, and I am afraid that he will not have such a luxurious opportunity in the foreseeable future. The world is too vast, and the world I am addicted to and unwilling to leave is too small. The so-called "traveling around the world" is just a dream, just my wishful fantasy of another life full of adventure and freedom.
Speaking of this, Wayne suddenly recalled that the character design he created for [Aikos] seemed to be a dream to one day travel around the world to pursue the pinnacle of the magical world...
His heart trembled, and he quietly glanced at Thea's back from the corner of his eye.
Probably not... Tasia didn't seem to notice anything.
He felt a little guilty for no reason.
"Ha, haha, those are just the arrogant words of my childhood.
It’s just Zhuang language. In addition to traveling around the world, I also want to become a great hero who saves the world. Hey, if you hadn't mentioned it today, I might not have even remembered that I had such innocent thoughts before. It's such an unbearable past. ” Wayne quickly stood up and patted the non-existent dust on his knees.
Inside the Holy See, all the streets as far as the eye can see are paved with exquisite floor tiles, and the dormitories of ordinary apprentices are also equipped with luxurious carpets. Sculptures and various buildings can be seen everywhere, and it is obvious at a glance that they are expensive to build.
No matter how lofty the ideal, no matter how devout the faith, in order to grow higher and bigger, it must take root downwards and deeper, and eventually it will be trapped in the soil in various ways. Even churches whose purpose is to convey divine grace and save the world and are well-received among the poor are no exception.
"Let's go out for a walk first and learn more about the environment of the Holy See! By the way, Camille-kun, is the class classification system of the Holy See the same as that of Qingxi Academy?" Wayne changed the subject.
"Ah——" Camille suddenly came back to her senses and withdrew her eyes from Tasia, who had been staring at her without knowing what she was thinking.
She composed herself.
"It's not much different. It's just that the final exam of the academy is to advance to a grade, while the final exam of the Holy See is to advance to a professional level. However, no matter how high the professional level is, for most people, it does not happen overnight. Something that can be done.”
She used herself as an example, "For example, although I have been in the Holy See for several years, I am still a trainee apprentice. Only after successfully completing the final exam can I obtain the status of a priest and be promoted to a trainee priest. Next, I need to be posted to various places to participate. Only after passing the internship work and passing the final internship can you be called a formal priest."
"So troublesome?" Wayne asked in surprise, "How many years will it take to become a cardinal?"
He only asked more out of curiosity.
But Alex on the side couldn't help it. He was very dissatisfied with Wayne's understatement.
"Hey, do you think that anyone who wants to be a cardinal can be a cardinal? Anyone who is promoted to a cardinal must make real merits and contributions. The Council of Cardinals will first nominate him, and then the tribunal will initiate a joint effort. After examination, His Majesty the Pope can finally grant the honor personally. Every cardinal is the person whom His Majesty the Pope relies on most."
Sensing that he was very proud of this, Wayne raised his eyebrows and deliberately contradicted him: "Oh? However, the nobility awarding of the Kingdom of Lornes also has these steps, and every great noble is also the most important to His Majesty the King. As for those who rely on trust, it seems that the difference between the Holy See and the Royal Capital is not very big."
"You!" Alex said angrily, as if he had been greatly insulted: "Don't compare those insect-like guys with the servants of God. There are no so-called nobles in the Holy See who are lying in the land of fame and fortune. !」
The two of them immediately became tense, and the atmosphere was a little tense for a while.
Tasia realized that she could no longer test Wayne, and sighed inaudibly.
