The night watchman dressed as a knight locked the door again, as if the iron door could block the two mysterious men from the Sky Realm. But the apprentice was not offended at all...he subconsciously believed that the door was impenetrable. From leaving Sister Mary to witnessing the bronze carvings of Clover, it has always had a special meaning for Uriel.
There was an accident in the divination in the White Tower, so Uriel didn't realize that it was actually a monastery. Rome is here, and so are the ominous prophecies. He didn't know if this was just a coincidence of fate.
"This is really strange. Before Larsen asked me to wake up the saint who was obsessed with astrology, I had never been turned away." said the lion.
The witch smiled. "If you showed up and went to a brothel, every prostitute would do that."
"That's a human brothel, not a lion-man's."
Uriel was not in the mood to listen to their chat, and did not notice the Witch of Destiny's insinuations about the Gaia Church. In any case, he didn't know about the past between the Gray Messenger and Eastman.
"I thought you hated Lucia more," Ronald said.
"I don't hate the gods. It's not pleasant at all to say such useless things."
"But this is really boring." Under the night, the village was surprisingly quiet. Not a single light could be seen in the crooked wooden houses and earthen ramparts in the distance. The fences were empty, and the livestock were huddled deep in the thatched houses. "I always feel something is wrong. There are no pubs or brothels open at night here! Don't the villagers need to have fun?"
"This is just a village." Witch Helen said, "It's not the entertainment street you like to visit." Her tone was calm and her magic power was calm. "Every village is like this. The work during the day leaves fatigue to the night, and few people have the energy to stay up late. As for where they go to have fun... I'm afraid that's the purpose of the inn."
"It's a very advanced idea to provide food and beauty at the same time."
Not long after, the door opened a gap again. "The dean wants me to apologize to all the guests. She plans to greet you personally." When saying this, the "knight" still looked at them suspiciously. "I know Croita, but there's no need for a big shot to sneak up here."
"We are not sneaking around." Uriel stepped forward to negotiate.
"It's up to you. This is a sacred place, you'd better not do anything blasphemous."
Perhaps this means that those who don't know are not afraid... the apprentice couldn't help but think. He observed the night watchman's expression and suddenly guessed the reason why he was so vigilant: there might not only be priests in the monastery, but also many "morally defective" girls and their children.
My God, Gaia, could it be that the entire church is involved in this massacre of people? Uriel had nothing to gain when he was in Four Leaf City, and he thought the clue would be interrupted; unexpectedly, in an unknown village thousands of miles away, he caught the tail of the sinful chain again. The implications made him shudder.
"Even if the tower does not believe in Gaia, we will never insult other people's gods. Besides, I am the mysterious knight of the goddess." When saying this, Uriel restrained his suppressed anger so that others could not see it. He stretched out his hand, and a bright halo of divine magic spread out.
The guy's movements obviously paused, and he was obviously surprised by the apprentice's mysterious profession. "Okay." The night watchman compromised, "Please come in."
He opened the door completely to let in the moonlight, lest these uninvited guests bump into the uneven threshold at the front. "Although you are honored guests, you still have to abide by the goddess's rules..."
"I know all about that," Uriel told him. If what he expected was true, no one here knew it better than him. "Don't go to the backyard. And don't disturb the heroic spirits."
Because he was wearing a steel helmet, no one could see the watchman's expression. However, the apprentice could smell fear in him. The "Knight" quickened his pace and remained silent until he entered the living room.
"This is my first time visiting Gaia's monastery." The lion said, "Generally they don't allow others to enter."
The messengers undoubtedly noticed something unusual. Uriel clenched his fists. "I have spent a long time in a similar place." Before the dean came downstairs, he lowered his voice and said, "Please trust me. Your Excellency, 'Lion'. I can handle the negotiation."
"Of course we trust you." The witch gave him an affirmative reply. Perhaps to a well-informed astrologer, the current weirdness does not seem special.
The living room is dark, with candles lit by stubborn vigil knights. The abbot did not pray all night, even though it was the second night after Penance. Uriel wouldn't be surprised if she was so intoxicated with the huge profits from selling her children that she forgot her faith.
The abbess was an elderly nun. When the Lion saw her, he let out a sigh of disappointment. The witch Helen felt very embarrassed: "Quiet, Uncle Ronald." Her voice was as soft as a whisper, but Uriel and Ronald Zachary heard it clearly.
The older nun’s Christian name is also full of age. In the poem about Gaia, Barnsa is a believer under the Goddess who is accidentally gifted. At the end of the story, she ascends to heaven. "Dear guests." Her attitude was not so cold, but it was hard to tell the warmth of her smile. "The second night is precious, and getting up at night is more painful than losing sleep. For the sake of the goddess...what can I do for you with my old bones?"
keep Calm. "We are looking for a lost apprentice." Uriel described Roma's appearance. He had heard this information from Mr. Larsen, and he could only hope that he was right. "I wonder if Dean Barnza has seen her?"
"I haven't seen her," the nun replied without hesitation.
The Scroll of Oath responded to these words. I knew she was lying. Uriel stared at her face closely and put it another way: "Have anything been damaged in the monastery recently? If there has been any damage, it may be the fault of the young apprentice. This is the negligence of the tower... and we decided to do it for Make compensation for this.”
Dean Barnza looked at him carefully. "That's true," she said slowly. "My safe was tampered with, and the scriptures were damaged. I think there was a troublemaker in the monastery that I couldn't see, and he used mysterious tools to cause trouble in the backyard. .The guy who can get this kind of prop is probably the apprentice of the tower."
"Are the destroyed items still there?"
The dean ordered the vigil knight to go upstairs and take down a large, thick, hard-covered book. Every page on this page is covered with ugly graffiti, and even a mess of words that don't make up sentences.
"She can do this." The lion decided.
"It's really hard for the artist to carefully turn over every page of the scripture." The witch also commented.
If it weren't for Sauron's help, Uriel could hardly read what was written on it.
"hypocrite! The devil without horns"
"Go to hell with your god"
"A bunch of stupid pigs!" weak fool
"This girl has my true biography," Sauron wrote with a somewhat proud tone. If you look at it from the perspective of not adding punctuation, this guy is right.
"Then where is she now?" asked the apprentice.
"I don't know about that." The dean's focus is not here. "Besides that, she also destroyed the idols and candlesticks in the chapel. These things..."
"...It's just some small items." Uriel interrupted her, "No one was hurt?"
"I don't think you can pay compensation for this."
"We will," said the witch.
Uriel glanced at her gratefully.
"Since you asked for it, fine - I will ask someone to make a list." Dean Barnza smiled kindly, "I know that Chloe's credibility is more valuable than the Glorious Parliament. Your country is far away from the sun. Closer to Lucia. Of course I know that. I have no doubt about it."
Uriel continued: "There are other damaged facilities and objects, and we have to pay compensation according to the price one by one. No more, no less. Now we have to look at every place where she left traces place. It will also help us find her."
"Everywhere?" The dean's expression stiffened for a moment, but he maintained a smile. "Well, wait until morning..."
"I'm sorry, Sister Barnsa, we're really in a hurry."
"Everyone else has gone to bed for a long time. These kids have had a hard day's work."
I've caught you. "Sleep? How is this possible? Tonight is the night of Penitence, and believers who devoutly believe in Gaia will not go to bed early. I am a knight of Gaia, don't you know? The mysterious profession of the tower members is indeed related to the church. It’s hard to imagine. But I know all about the rules of the goddess, and this is how it should be.”
The Night Watch Knight muttered, "He is indeed a priest of Gaia."
Sister Barnsa gave him a sharp look. "Even so, this is very inconvenient." She forced a smile, "There are women here, and they are afraid of strange men..."
"Please rest assured. The credibility of the tower is more valuable than that of the Glorious Council, not to mention that the 'Witch of Destiny' will never teach them fear, right?" Uriel did not give her a chance to deal with the situation. He stood up immediately and said, "Let's start from the backyard."
The smile disappeared from the Dean's face. "That's where sinners rest. You're not allowed to go there!"
There was no need to negotiate with Uriel at this time. The lion Ronald stood up. He was taller than the door, and his shoulders were wider than the night watchman's armor. When he looked down, the huge shadow could cover Sister Barnsa and the knight. "We have to find Roma, old woman, you don't think we are just here to compensate for the things that girl destroyed, do you?"
At this moment, even if Dean Barnza realized that he had been deceived, it was too late. "The backyard is a forbidden area..."
"That's not what you said before." Uriel revealed, "You let us go during the day. Could it be that the forbidden area is only for night time?"
Sister Parnassus stared at him viciously. "Priests who do not respect God deserve to go to hell!"
"A person who does not worship God cannot become a priest." Helen, the witch, corrected. "Obviously, you don't know as much about the mysteries as your Gaia. I guess we have nothing more to say." She lifted her feet lightly off the ground and floated.
Sister Barnsa's face suddenly turned pale.
