Chapter 13 The Real Purpose of the High Priest
"Okay! Return the staff to the priest!"
Ai Luo put his hands on his hips and roared with a straight face. The little guys jumped off the table and yelled. But they did not return the staff directly to the holy wafer, but put it on the table.
They ran in groups towards the classroom at the back.
Seeing the nonsense on the faces of these little guys, Ai Luo sighed. Seeing that the holy wafer was about to get the staff, Ai Luo quickly took a step forward, picked up the staff of light, and handed it to the Holy Wagon respectfully.
Bread in hand.
"Townshipers in small places like to mess around."
Seeing the holy wafer being taken, Ai Luo said a little apologetically——
"But Uncle Holy Cake, I heard that the staff is a very important thing for a magician? Is it okay for you to get rid of it so casually?"
The holy cake smiled, raised his head and looked at his light staff, which was obviously old, and said with a smile: "It's okay, this staff can only be used by people with strong light magic power. And it has been signed with me.
I signed the contract, although it may not be that precious to me over the years... Haha, but my old partner is not the kind of treasure that is pampered and pampered. It needs to be kept when nothing happens, and only used when something happens."
As he spoke, Holy Bread found a corner to sit down in the rest area of the guild and rested for a while. At the same time, just as he said, he put his staff aside nonchalantly, as if there was no such thing as the traditional way of leaving a priest.
If you use the staff, your combat effectiveness will immediately drop by several levels.
Seeing this scene, Airl couldn't help but think of his little necromancer.
If Coco was asked to put down her wand, would she still be able to look so calm?
Well, as expected, self-confidence is supported by strength.
"Uncle Holy Bread, it's a small place and there's nothing to entertain you."
Ai Luo walked into the kitchen, and after a while he brought out a plate of special salad and placed it in front of the holy bread, smiling and saying——
"Let's settle for now, we will have lunch soon! I will definitely show you my hand during lunch!"
The holy wafer was not polite, nodded with a smile, picked up his fork and took a bite of salad.
In an instant, the pastor was immediately impressed by the rich but not greasy cheese sauce mixed with fresh and sweet vegetables, and quickly took another bite.
"Yeah, yeah! I didn't expect the president's cooking skills to be so good. You see, the president is not very young. Where did he learn such good cooking skills?"
Ailuo laughed and said: "When I was in school, I felt that the food in the cafeteria was really unpalatable. I was lucky. There was a small shop behind the dormitory building where I lived. Because of the reputation of our school, I was willing to sell the stove
Lend it to me. I've had Xiao Zao for several years."
After taking two bites in succession, the eyes of the holy bread began to shine. Although Ai Luo felt that for a high priest, it was not as if he had not eaten anything good, but thinking that this time he followed the army to such a remote place,
I'm afraid my tongue has been dry for a long time.
"Old Tengshu Academy~~~ Well, so to speak, President Ai Luo should have come into contact with a lot of people in the school, right?"
After a short meal, the holy wafer suddenly stopped and said with a somewhat nostalgic tone——
"Well... I once wanted to take a look at Old Tengshu College and borrow the student roster. Having said that, becoming a high priest can be regarded as one of my goals. After all, it is better for the high priest to check the files of your school's students.
It's easier..."
As he spoke, he took another sip——
"It's just a pity that the amount of data is really too big...and it's not convenient for me to find it."
At this point, Arrow knew that the priest had mentioned the red-haired woman again.
After thinking for a while, Ai Luo asked: "Uncle Holy Cake, if... it's not a very private matter, can you tell me why you are looking for this red-haired woman? What exactly are you and her?"
relation?"
At the mention of this, Holy Bread sighed slightly.
He looked at the salad in his hand, only the last few bites were left, but he couldn't eat it for a while. And looking at his thoughts, it seemed that he had drifted to a very long time ago, and he didn't know where to start.
.
Ai Luo didn't interrupt and just let him continue to reminisce.
After a long time, the cleric raised his hand slightly, rubbed the moist corners of his eyes, raised his head again, and showed a helpless smile: "Actually... I also know that this possibility is very small. After all,
She and I have been separated for almost thirteen or four years. After so many years, it is hard to say whether she still remembers her own name, or even no longer calls her by her original name? I originally went to find you with the intention of giving it a try.
Principal, please let me see your student roster."
"But, your school's roster does not have a photo, only the name and family registration. Alas... I don't even know what her name is now, nor what she looks like. After so many years, I originally
I also know that my hope is slim. The only thing I hope for now is that she can be safe and carefree. If she is lucky, she can be taken in by a good family. Even... even now, she has completely forgotten me.
Dad, that doesn’t matter anymore.”
For a moment, Ai Luo felt that he seemed to understand the actions of the priest in front of him.
Why would a clergyman with the title of "High Priest" not want to stay in the Holy See, but instead run around? Why would the High Priest personally come to such a remote rural village?
Then when I saw someone, I wanted to ask about the red-haired woman.
At least, this priest is not actually doing what he said, purely to save the civilians who are suffering from pain and illness. Walking around and doing good deeds is actually to have a sense of comfort in his own heart, and at the same time, he also has that
Just the tiniest bit of hope.
"Why not let the Holy See help search for it?"
Arrow poured him a glass of water——
"With the power of the Holy See of Light, it shouldn't be difficult to find a red-haired girl of eighteen or nineteen across the country."
Holy Waffle smiled, nodded and said: "Well, it is indeed not difficult. But the problem is that each high priest can control different areas. I can't let other colleagues do nothing by themselves and come to help me find this."
A daughter who has been lost for so many years. And on the other hand, many people go missing in our empire every day. When the parents of those missing children are sad and desperate, they can only come to our church to pray and seek our help.
help."
He took a sip of tea, put down his smile and said, "I can't simply stop the search for the children of ordinary people, but use a lot of the power of the Holy See specifically to find my daughter, right?"
After saying this, the smile on the pastor's face seemed a little uncomfortable. He fumbled with the tea cup, kept turning the cup around, and kept muttering softly——
"After all...it's been too long...if it hadn't been that long..."
Ai Luo exhaled and could only say with some regret: "Uncle Holy Baker, a red-haired girl of eighteen or nineteen years old... I do know a few of them. But judging from their family and status, they should not be very popular.
It may be your daughter. So... But don't be too discouraged. I believe that one day, you will be reunited with your daughter. At the worst, your daughter must also know that you have been looking for him, maybe
She is also thinking of ways to find you now!"
The holy wafer opened his mouth and smiled. In addition to a little relief, these smiles seemed to be a little grateful to Airl for his understanding.
Seeing this, Ai Luo stood up from his seat: "Let's not always think about these past events, everything must be looked forward to! Maybe when will we be able to find the most important person in life? Saint
Uncle Biscuit, would you like to visit my guild? The children are attending class in the back now. You are the pastor, can you come and help me see if my teaching methods are suitable?"
The holy wafer nodded slightly and said, "Okay, let's go."
Airl was relieved to see the priest regain his energy. He was leading the way, but now the cat suddenly flew over from the storage room and circled around the holy wafer.
"Huh?... Weird."
Ai Luo frowned, why are the two of them so impolite? Although the high priest himself doesn't mind, it is better to do less of this kind of impolite behavior.
After all, being kind to others is related to whether money will automatically flow into your pocket!
"What are you doing?"
Napa seemed a little hesitant when asked by Airl. Its little head shook and its tail drooped a little.
As if for the last confirmation, the cat circled around the holy wafer again, and finally shook its head gently and said: "Nothing. I have been thinking about one thing just now. This thing
I had no intention of teaching those little brats until I found the answer, so I ran out to take a look. But now it seems a bit rude to say so...but...forget it, maybe there really is something wrong with my nose.
.”
Such hesitant words made Airl a little unhappy, but just when he wanted to ask the cat exactly what was going on...
"Help! Help! President Arrow!"
The door opened, and Dr. Korra stumbled into the door again. Looking at the lost look, Airl couldn't help but sigh.
"What's wrong?"
Doctor Korra put his hand on the wall and hurriedly ran to the counter. Before Arrow could fully enter the counter, the barefoot doctor said with a slightly panicked voice——
"There's...there's...there's a monster! The monster is out! Shining Forest!!!"
Ai Luo was stunned for a moment: "Monster? Slime? Just walk around, right?"
"No...it's not a slime! What's a slime? It's...a bigger...bigger...monster! It's a hook-toothed rat!"
Chapter completed!
