Lecia felt very good when she woke up in the morning, and the previous fatigue had disappeared a lot, except for the violent noise last night. It's just a little crowded in the middle.
This time she took the initiative to wash up without being reminded, which impressed Dermot and Natalia.
The two people in the dream didn't feel like the two people they were now. Lecia braided her hair and put it back, looking at herself inside.
The other person must be a very important person to her, who has red hair and heroic spirit like her. Do you have any living family members?
Do you want to talk to Natalia? Or should we hide it first?
The forbidden place might have the answer she wanted. After the loud noise last night, it became a little more attractive to her. You have to find an opportunity to go and check it out on your own.
When she came out, she glanced at the desk in the mirror and wondered how best to take out the books there, even if there was only one!
"I am leaving."
"Remember to come back on time at noon, don't delay the afternoon."
After being instructed, Lecia turned her head and stuck out her tongue helplessly. She was already an adult, teaching children, and was treated as a child.
"Teacher Lecia, what a coincidence today is."
Awosika and her sister Jessica walked over from the branch road and met together to go to the school with the steeple building.
Betty didn't come today, which made Lecia feel a little uncomfortable. She didn't have a person to talk to and raise the atmosphere.
There was something maternal about Awosika that also attracted her. Could she be craving this feeling too? She said something mysteriously.
"Can I touch your belly? Awosika."
"Okay, Teacher Lecia."
Awosika took Lecia's hesitant hand and placed it on her bulging belly, letting it gently caress it.
Lecia also felt the joy of life inside, and it seemed to be beating, which aroused the maternal nature hidden in her instinct. His eyes softened and he leaned against Lecia.
"Teacher Lecia, don't you feel good? After you complete the ritual of sacrificing the saint, come and try to be a mother."
"There is a vitality and joy of life. Let's talk about it later."
Lecia took her hand back, a little prone to sinking in. Awosika's maternal nature also increased a bit, and she held her hand tenderly.
When she came to the courtyard gate outside the steeple building, she saw several villagers holding sticks and turning into the square behind.
When Curious and the Awosika sisters came to the corner, they saw that there were large and small village groups surrounding the flat ground in front of them, discussing the noise last night.
Judging from the situation, they couldn't find the reason. Lecia observed the raised pile of flowers and grass, which was calling her to go.
Reason told her that it was not possible now and she had to wait until there was no one around, so she took Awosika and the two back to class. What excuse could she find? Isn't this the best reason.
"Awosika, wait here."
Lecia quickly came to the square, and everyone bowed to her and praised her beauty and brilliance.
She responded to everyone with a smile and came to the village chief Little, who was watching from outside the Forbidden Land. He walked a dozen steps ahead and saw a raised haystack in front of him.
The dark red round handle was partially exposed, a thorn was entangled there, and a few purple flowers were blooming.
"Village Chief, what happened? Will it affect the children's class?"
"Is Lecia here too? Go back quickly and leave it to us to solve the problem. He's just a violator of the rules."
"It's no problem. I'll go back and teach the children."
Lecia left the side of the village chief Little. This was the closest she got to the taboo. The feeling of calling was vaguely familiar to her, and now she could only restrain herself and stay away.
The children in the classroom were already sitting there. After she came in, she started teaching them how to spell a simple sentence.
When school was over at noon, she directly asked Schiller, who had been in a daze for a long time, what was going on?
He looked distracted and didn't respond to what he said.
"Schiller, are you feeling unwell?"
"Shiller is thinking of something bad, isn't he secretly coveting Teacher Lecia?"
Betty ran over and hugged her arms, and said a lot to Schiller who was scratching his hair in front of him, but Schiller didn't respond and pointed to leave.
"If you don't feel well, you should go see a doctor. Who is the doctor in Yanxier Village? Is there one?" Lecia found that she had no memory at all?
"Yes, they are Awosika's two mothers. They are also very beautiful."
"It seems like we need to get to know each other if we have a chance. Schiller, do you want to go over and take a look?"
Schiller shook his head, indicating that he was fine, and asked Germain to walk ahead.
Awosika also said that she can visit her home now. Her two mothers are very friendly and will like everyone.
"I have to go home on time, otherwise I will be told by Natalia. Awosika, please take Schiller back to have a look."
"Leave it to me, Teacher Lecia, you are still being disciplined like a child."
Lecia could only smile awkwardly, you are right, you are almost mature enough to be a mother. She closed the classroom door and left.
When they came to the fork in the road, Schiller, who was in a daze all the way, left with Awosika, while Germaine strode away to his home.
Betty followed her to the door of her house without any intention of going back and refused her request to see her off.
"What are you going to do? Aren't you going to go home for lunch?"
"Teacher Lecia, don't you invite me to come in and sit down for a while? Everyone is already here."
"You will probably be a troubled person when you grow up!" Lecia sighed and brought Betty in.
Now that I'm being watched closely during the day, I guess I can only go to forbidden places at night.
Whenever I want to be alone, someone will always come out to be with me at the right time. This made her doubtful.
"Did you bring Betty back today? It seems that your relationship is very good."
Natalia hugged Betty and asked them to return to the sofa in the hall to sit down while she went to prepare lunch with Dermot.
You actually have no opinion? Lecia, who was leaning on the sofa, was a little surprised, while Betty looked at the trinkets on the table, carved a few signs with a small sword, and scratched Lecia's hand.
"This sword looks like something from the Forbidden Land."
Betty said nonchalantly, made a few gestures, then picked up the engraved jewelry of the necklace and put it on herself for comparison.
"Did you look at it too? What's there."
Lecia was a little shocked. She thought so hard, but she didn't expect others to know it casually.
Then continue to keep a good look and talk without noticing.
"I can only look at it from a distance. When I was a child, there was just a red sword stuck in the ground, with a few thorns wrapped around it and some flowers blooming. At the bottom was purple-black dust, and a tattered book was passed through. Pinned underneath.”
“It seems like a lot of things changed when I left school, and it all grew overgrown in the blink of an eye.”
"It's a pity that it's not close, otherwise I would like to pull it out and play with it. It feels like I can control everything with it. Someone must have run there and triggered the taboo last night. The sound was so loud that I couldn't sleep well. .”
"Don't be too naughty, or the village chief will punish you. Who went there last night?"
Lecia hugged Betty and at least knew what was inside. Is that sword calling me?
There was still a lot of danger. Fortunately, someone helped me find the way. How should I avoid the unknown danger and get close to the sword?
"I don't know, but my uncle North disappeared today. I think it was him."
"Won't the village chief catch him?"
"He is missing, and this is just my guess. Little and the others will probably check for a while before they find out."
"Then you have to be obedient and don't seek death."
Lecia touched the green hair on Betty's head and fell into deep thought.
In Kamari Town, the breath of cold winter has also affected this place. In the morning, a layer of hoarfrost was seen on the roofs, and pedestrians below put on thick coats.
The fountain outside St. Christopher's Church reduced the amount of water, and the homeless man huddled against the wall on one side, wrapped in some old clothes. The original pigeons also flew into the indentation under the eaves, looking out listlessly.
Father Gerhardt, who was wearing a heavy coat and robe, sent away Hans and Adele who came here to ask for news. He didn't know where Hermione had gone.
The church keeps high-level matters confidential and has a hierarchical review system, so I don't know much about it. Except for the first few days, there is no news now.
The little boy would occasionally bring someone to ask questions, and over time they became familiar with each other and became friends every year.
"Teacher, the witch named Caroline has been expelled and escaped."
Salmont, also wearing thick clerical robes, came to report the situation.
After Hermione left, an extremely beautiful woman came to the town, and many people became her subjects in a short period of time.
Hans kept coming to the church to find Father Gerhardt and Sister Hermione to come back for help, making the two of them realize that something was wrong.
That Coraline was so alluring, just like I couldn't look at Hermione's face for long before, they both had the same temperament.
This is not something that ordinary people can have. It just so happened that the church above also accepted the report and sent a team of 'Keepers of Knowledge' to deal with it.
Unfortunately, the other party wanted to escape and was ready to leave, resulting in the group returning without success.
Mainly because they arrived late and saw their back. Salmont also participated in the entire operation and knew some explosive information.
"That's fine. She almost seduced the wealthy businessmen in the town. Hans's father was almost manipulated. It's really dangerous."
"Fortunately, no lives were lost."
"This is also where she is smart, leaving a little leeway for herself."
"Teacher, are they all transformed from men? What about Ms. Hermione from before?"
"I have known some witches from the Witch Sect before. They are indeed men who turned into women. This has something to do with their sequence path. I don't know the details, and the level is not enough. As for Hermione, since the church didn't say anything, we won't either. If you need to say more, you won’t offend others.”
Salmont almost lost control when he saw Caroline, especially thinking about the regrets about Hermione before, but luckily he restrained himself.
When I thought that the other person was a man, I couldn't help but feel resentful in my heart, and my coveting for Hermione disappeared a little.
"I understand, teacher. I can't believe how beautiful and charming they are."
"It's good to know. In the extraordinary world, you have to be careful about your words and actions."
After finishing his business, Salmont returned to the yard behind. Eva waved to him from the yard next to her, with a somewhat anxious expression.
She was dressed in ordinary clothes, and her three-dimensional facial features had regained some vitality, retaining some of the aristocratic temperament from before.
"Eva, what's wrong, do you want it again?"
Salmont came to the small door and asked about her. Father Salmont helped her buy a small house in the house behind the church, which happened to have someone to take care of her.
He was pulled back mysteriously by Eva, who was a little anxious and didn't answer.
Before, he was responsible for psychological counseling for their family, and they became familiar with each other after more contact.
One day, I accidentally saw Eva wearing only a shirt, with her hair disheveled in the background, and a relationship developed by accident.
For him, this is nothing to bear, he just needs to be more busy.
Eva closed the door to the room, her expression was a little bitter, and she hesitated before saying, "I'm pregnant."
Samonte, who thought he was looking forward to something else, was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
Lecia finished the painting process in the afternoon. After several days of painting, a rough outline of herself appeared on the canvas.
After putting down the flowers in his hand and thanking Murray. He touched the hair of the painting brother and sister and prepared to go back.
After a few days of keeping quiet, Natalia no longer accompanied him here all the time. Today, Betty and Schiller were watching.
There is something strange about the books on the desk at home. I have tried every method I could think of in the past few days but haven't taken them out. Is there really a space in the mirror?
Thinking of this, her temper also increased a little. Since she saw it, why not show more.
If it weren't for the difficulty of explaining that she wanted to blow up the mirror directly, and the forbidden place couldn't be approached recently, it would be difficult to leave at night if someone was with her.
"Betty, that's it. Go back."
After she sent Betty and the others home, she headed home along the road. The old man who had not been seen for many days appeared again at the turning point of the fence.
"Old man, long time no see. Have you found your home?"
Lecia kept a distance and asked the old man who was walking slowly to avoid being interrupted by any passing villagers.
"Go home, go home...
"Where's your home? In the forest?"
"It's not the forest, it's just the shelter, it's outside, it's outside...
The old man obviously forgot about it and didn't say it out loud. He could only continue talking and walking around.
Lecia woke up from a dream. Yes, she could go look outside, such as where she was studying.
This shouldn't be like this. She felt that she had forgotten a lot of things and relied on others to remind her every time. It was time to find them by herself.
"Old man, do you need me to take you home?"
"Go home, go home...
The old man ignored Lecia and walked alone.
