Not a Witch

"I know, you go down first."

After the white-robed knight went down, Otis opened his mouth slowly.

"Recently, the Pope's election is approaching, but there have been many turmoil in the sanctuary that have never been seen before. This is not a good sign. It is foreseeable that they will carry out greater actions."

"And as the church's most important and backbone fighting force, we have to be more careful."

After he finished talking about some matters that needed attention, he discussed the recent internal affairs with the knight commanders present before adjourning the meeting.

After everyone in the hall had almost left, the grand regiment leader stood up.

"Farilla, what's the matter with you?" He looked at the only remaining knight commander.

"Yes, my lord, I have something to discuss with you alone."

Otis looked at the brown-haired knight for a while, then walked down the steps, "Come with me."

"Yes, my lord."

The two walked one after the other in the corridor of the fortress on the mountain peak, nodded to the standing knights, and then slowly came to an observation tower, which was empty and slightly remote.

"What's the matter?" The two had known each other for many years, Odis said casually.

"Yes." Farreira put her hands on the dark blue stone bricks, looked at the sparse buildings below and opposite, and then asked.

"Are you going to run for Pope, Otis?"

"Prepare to campaign, and prepare to fail." Otis said, the wind blowing across his face, and his thick beard trembled slightly.

"Actually, I still support you." Farreira's voice came from the side.

"Interesting, because I am the Grand Master of the Knights?"

"Yes, but there are other reasons too."

"Tell me."

"Sibis is too utilitarian. Although he was good when he was young, he has slowly changed now. Benesse has good strength, but her heart is not hard enough. Sometimes she is too gentle, making it difficult to rest assured."

"It sounds reasonable. What about Charente, who was a big shot when I first joined the church."

"His Royal Highness Charente's character and strength are impeccable, but he has almost no desires and desires, and he has no intention of changing anything. If he becomes the pope, it means that there is no pope in the sanctuary." Farreira said and turned around Come.

"I can see that Lord Otis has further ideas and determination to change, but sometimes you are too strict with your own principles, and it is inconvenient to make a move."

"I am willing to wave the flag for you, and I only hope that when you win, you can share some glory."

"Hahaha, I didn't expect you to be so ambitious, Farreira." Otis clapped his hands on the crenel of the city wall, and the metal armor on his body made a slight collision sound.

"However, how should I trust you?" His voice suddenly became serious, and his dark blue eyes looked at the man in front of him like ice.

"You just have to wait, good news will come within three days."

Farrara stretched out his right arm, clenched it into a fist, and hit the armor on his left shoulder, making the sound of metal clashing.

Palace of Ten Swords, inner palace of flowing water.

The clear mountain spring flows down from the top of the courtyard and falls into the pool in the middle, splashing and splashing, bringing pleasant sounds, and most of the heat in midsummer is thus dissipated, making the interior cooler.

An old man with a kind and chubby face is sitting on a bench by the pool, and a young nun beside him is feeding him cut fruits.

A guard in golden armor came into the courtyard to report.

"My lord Sibis, a bishop from the south has requested to see you."

"Oh, what's his name." Sibbs leaned on the bench, his figure was like a large wax gourd.

"His name is Pickpin, and it is said that he is the bishop of Verga Green Water Port."

"It seems a bit familiar." Sibis chewed the crisp melon slices.

"He is your junior when you were in the Olive Leaf Palace, my lord. He went to the south more than ten years ago to be a priest, and he was gradually promoted to a bishop." An attendant next to him said so.

"Well, then let him in, I probably know why he's here." Sibis slowly swallowed the food in his mouth, and sat upright with the support of the attendants.

"Yes, Lord Sibis." The guard in golden armor stood up and walked out of the palace.

Not long after, a slightly thin, white-robed bishop with a goatee walked into the palace, followed by two young priests.

"Long time no see, Pikping, you have worked hard these years." Sibis said so, ready to stand up to greet him, and the attendants on both sides were also ready to help him up.

"No, no, no need for His Excellency Sibbis to be so kind."

Pique waved his hand flatly, stepped forward to press falsely, stopped Sibbis's movement, and then the two began to chat politely.Recalling each other's years in the Lavender Palace, it seems that it is the most precious memory of the two of them.

When talking about some touching little things in the past, the eye sockets of the two were still slightly red, and a few 'sincere' tears shed.At this time, the two sat together unknowingly.

Sibis patted Pikping's shoulder slowly with his fat and wide palm, and said with a sigh: "I really miss that time, when we were so young and had our own dreams."

"Yes." Pi Keping also let out a long sigh, and then continued.

"It's a pity that more than 20 years have passed, and now the body is slowly aging, and many things are more than enough."

He paused for a moment before continuing.

"I came here this time because I feel that I don't have much time. I want to meet my old friend and make arrangements for the funeral. Come on, kid, let me introduce you." He beckoned, and a young man would follow him in. The pastor called.

"This is Lord Sibis, the scepter priest of the Palace of Ten Swords, a highly respected and trustworthy elder."

"Master Sibis..." He solemnly nodded, and then introduced himself.

"I adopted this child there, and I placed a lot of expectations on him." Pikping said.

Sibis squinted his eyes, looked at the two of them a little, and found that their faces were somewhat similar, so a faint smile appeared on their faces.

"Good boy, good boy."

He reached out and touched the young man's head.

"Don't worry, I will remember this child. Lusha goes to my locker and fetches the pendant. Treat it as a gift for an old friend." He raised his hand and ordered.

"Yes, Master Sibis." The nun walked away quickly, came to Sibis' bedroom, opened the bedside cabinet, and revealed the golden necklaces and pendants mixed in it, and she took one from it, After a little inspection, I found a small box, packed it, and took it out.

Seeing the nun come back, Sibis took the box, pressed the button on it, and popped out the golden pendant that exuded a faint brilliance.

"This is a gadget I made in my free time recently. It's probably only silver-level quality. It's a little bit of my heart, so I'll give it to you." He handed the pendant over.

"This... this, no need to be like this, you spent your time doing this, how can you give it away so easily." After Pi Keping pushed back a few times, he let the young priest beside him take the pendant , and then put it on the chest on the spot.

"This is good, this is good." Sibbs said a few words with a smile, which moved the young pastor.

"Why don't you sit down for a while, it's almost time for dinner here."

"There's no need for this. Even though we are old friends, I can't keep disturbing you, Lord Sibbis." Pickuping stood up, said a few more polite words, and then took the two young priests to bid farewell.

"That's how it is, you can come to me if you have any difficulties in the future, old man." The two hugged again, and then slowly separated.

After that, under the smiling eyes of Sibis, the three slowly left the palace.

After a while, Sibbs looked at the clear water in front of him and asked, "Are they gone?"

An attendant walked out quickly, and then came back, reporting in a low voice: "My lord, they have already left."

"Yeah." Sibis nodded, and his face became a little cold.

"Help me up and take a shower, and then tidy up here."

"Yes, my lord."

After finishing speaking, two attendants slowly helped the potbellied Bishop Sibis to the back of the palace.

Since meeting Benesse, Lorraine Hill has received a lot of attention these days. After all, the scene of her having dinner with the church tycoon was seen by many nuns.

Later, everyone inquired slowly, only to find out that this seemingly young silver-haired nun had such an extraordinary background.He is not only a top student of Emenas, but also the chief of the academy, who once led the academy to win the championship of breaking the army.

For a while, many people were talking about this girl.

"Has Rochelle changed yet?" Outside the bedroom door, two girls were waiting.

"It's almost ready, wait a moment." A pleasant and light voice came from inside the room.

Lorraine Hill looked at the several clothes on the bed, hesitated, and finally chose a dress whose main color was black, but there were some white pleats on the skirt and cuffs.

Or this one is a little more plain, she thought about taking off the nun's clothes on her body and changing into this black dress.

Today is the day of the class reunion, they have already asked for leave, and they are going to go out in the afternoon and evening to visit the scenic spots on the lower holy mountain.

And it would be inappropriate to wear usual work clothes at this time, so Lorraine Hill changed clothes here.

The door creaked open, and Lorraine Hill, who was wearing light green sandals, a black dress, and ponytails, appeared in front of the two of them.

"Wow."

"It's so pretty, Rosie."

Jelica gave a thumbs up, and then they left the small courtyard and walked towards the mountain path beside them.

Jelica was wearing a trousers and shirt, her blond hair was pulled into a ponytail, and Bolly was wearing a white and pink summer dress. The three girls walked together on the path, talking as they walked.

"Let's go to the Shanxiang Palace first, Haisen and other boys will wait for us there. The buildings and statues there are very nice, you can take a look, and then go to the Singing Palace to listen to the choir singing, and then watch the sunset , and finally go to the Holy Flame Palace, there are several restaurants there, tourists and church personnel can go there, and the tastes are richer."

Jelica talked about today's arrangement, and then several people also quickened their pace a little.

Half an hour later, Shanxiang Palace.

The pure white jade is carved with exquisite human-shaped statues, which are placed in the flower bed not far from the road for the appreciation of tourists and church personnel. Several people walked up the stone steps.

After turning several corners, a spacious platform gradually appeared in the field of vision of the three of them. As they approached, they gradually heard a few familiar conversations, which were students from Emenas.

"It's so hot, why don't those girls come here?"

The sun shone on the white square, and the continuous chirping of cicadas sounded from the surrounding trees.

"It should be soon, Jelica and Rosier are quite punctual."

When several people were talking, three girls finally appeared on one side of the square.

"Huh, here I come, good brothers!" Jelica waved her hands and jumped up.

"Hey, it's time to come." The four came over, and they were a little tanned after not seeing each other for a few months.

"Would you like to drink some water first?" Heisen walked in front. At this moment, he was still wearing a large white priest's robe, as if he had just finished work.

"I want some, I have to play later." Jelica expressed her need, and then the 7 people walked to the shade of a tree beside her.
