Undertaker: Chapter 131 129. Honorary Knights from the North
By the time Luo Xia woke up, it was already afternoon.
As soon as he walked out of the dormitory, he saw Nota bouncing over with the kitten.
"Senior, you are awake!"
"In the kitchen, there are meals that Xiaomi bought at noon, do you need me to warm them up for you?"
"That's unnecessary, logistical support is the priest's responsibility."
Rorschach declined Nota's kindness, and asked curiously:
"It's still so small, how dare you put it on the street?"
As he said that, he reached out and snatched the little milk cat back from Nota's chest, and rubbed it against his cheek.
The little milk cat was also very happy to rub him with its furry head, then waved its little paws, and yelled 'meow meow', probably trying to express something?
It's a pity that no one understands...
Nota pretended to understand, and explained next to him:
"Xiao Mi is very smart!"
"Then how did it bring the takeaway back?"
Luo Xia asked curiously again, and then lowered his head to look carefully at the little milk cat in his hand.
It's been two months, and it's still only the size of a palm, with no development and growth visible at all...
Maybe it's because Nota is always taking care of him?Was she infected with a certain constitution?
In short, such a small milk cat is not as big as a dinner plate, how can I bring the food back?
Nota smiled slyly and explained:
"Actually, it was delivered by someone else's clerk... Every time I would write a sticky note on what I wanted to eat and ask Xiao Mi to take it there. The shopkeeper would arrange for someone to deliver it. How about it? I'm smart, right?"
Only then did Luo Xia understand the principle, smiled and nodded.
"Smart indeed."
But I don't know if he is praising her or the little milk cat?
........................
After eating something casually, Luo Xia looked at the time, and didn't think about opening today, let's talk about it tomorrow.
Hopefully everything will be back to normal tomorrow.
However, when he was replenishing the magic spells in the lottery offering box in the fountain square, he saw an old man coming outside the gate, looking like he wanted to come in.
Luo Xia thought he was here to make an appointment, so he took the initiative to greet her.
The old man was wearing a standard suit, top hat, pocket watch and cane. He looked decently dressed, and his financial situation should be very good.
But there was no trace of sadness on his face, but excitement and joy on his face?
Luo Xia seldom saw such a guest, so he couldn't help wondering what this meant? The 98-year-old girlfriend finally couldn't stand it anymore?
"Excuse me... are you Pastor Rorschach?"
The old man asked through the door.
Rorschach nodded.
Then, he saw that he was lying on the ground, his forehead was pressed against the street, and he was still whispering:
"Excuse me for being disrespectful, Archbishop..."
This set of operations directly confused Luo Xia. He was stunned for a while, then quickly opened the door, helped the other party up, and quickly explained:
"Don't talk nonsense! I'm not an archbishop!"
The title of archbishop is really unlucky for him!
From the earth to this world, he has met two archbishops.
A person who 'assembles troops' every day and then 'can't hold on' suffers 'heavy losses';
One was simply thrown into the thirteenth floor, and then moved into the figure showcase.
So this high hat is obviously not something that normal people can wear.
But the old man looked stubborn, and said righteously:
"But...Your Majesty, she mentioned you to me in this way...The whole Northland knows that our new Archbishop Rorschach is starting the fifth expedition. Newspapers and radio stations have been talking about it for several days..."
"And His Majesty also promised that we will win this time, and the glory and gospel of the goddess will surely cover the entire city of oracle!"
"not me……"
Luo Xia was a little speechless by what he said, and asked again:
"She is messing around, and you are also messing around?"
The old man froze for a moment, then thought about it, and explained:
"Indeed, as you said, not everyone agrees with His Majesty's statement, especially the appointment of an archbishop without public ceremonies and ceremonies seems a bit out of order..."
"She has suffered a lot of criticism because of this, and newspapers and radio stations have quarreled over this matter several times. It seems that she has no way to resolve such disputes well."
After hearing this, Luo Xia spread his hands.
"Isn't that enough? Since there are disputes, are you still talking nonsense?"
But the old man was still explaining:
"But...Your Majesty, although she couldn't resolve the dispute, she sent the person who raised the dispute to dig potatoes in the permafrost, so there was no dispute..."
"Ah this..."
Luo Xia was speechless. For a while, he didn't know how to complain?
If the dispute cannot be resolved, the person who raised the dispute will be resolved?
Who taught her to do this?
As for the old man standing opposite him, taking advantage of Rorschach's silence, he hurriedly adjusted his appearance, and took out a badge in the shape of a female silhouette from his pocket and put it on his chest.
Then he knelt down on one knee in a serious and formal way, stroked his heart with his right hand, and introduced himself:
"I am the honorary knight Getaf, who has sworn to follow the goddess all his life."
"It is an honor to admire your glory, Archbishop Rorschach, may the grace and gospel of the goddess always be with you."
He came to do this so seriously, so that Luo Xia had no choice but to raise his hand and randomly bless him with a magic spell, and then replied in a serious way:
"Praise the goddess, may the glory and grace of the goddess always be with you, and we will always remember your achievements, Honorary Knight Getave."
After all, with a very humble and easy-going attitude, he helped the other party up with both hands.
There is no way, even if I really want to complain, the necessary rituals and procedures must be completed first.
Although the title of 'Honorary Knight' has no practical significance and is not a specific position, it represents a kind of recognition by the Holy See for devout believers. They can receive all-round trust and various preferential treatment, and their families can also enjoy the protection of the Holy See.
For example, when he goes to a church to pray, he must be greeted by at least a bishop-level priest and preside over the ceremony for him; he can get the front row seat when he participates in ceremonies of various denominations; if he encounters danger, there will be a special person to rescue him, etc. Wait.
Only believers who have made outstanding contributions to the Holy See can wear such badges, which can be passed on to future generations, but they must also remain devout and continue to make contributions to the Holy See in order to continue to enjoy various preferential treatment.
So even if Rorschach wanted to complain, he had to do the necessary procedures and rituals well.
He pays the most attention to the sense of ritual...
Even if the other party is actually a follower of Orville...
Of course, it would be great if he didn't use such an inauspicious title to refer to himself.
Undertaker: Chapter 132 130. Give the church some entertainment
Just at this moment, Nota also poked his head out from the church, and when he saw the old man, he hopped over to him.
"Uncle, you are here again. Fortunately, senior is still in church this time..."
"Your Excellency Nota, it's an honor to see you again, you are still so young and lovely."
Getave complimented quickly, smiling all over his face, and added:
"The last time I came here, I couldn't see Archbishop Rorschach, which made me sleepless these days. Fortunately, I came again today..."
It's not hard to see that he brought the letter from Cilarrael from the north.
It's just that Luo Xia went out to run business at that time, and the two failed to meet.
Next, Rorschach resisted the urge to correct his name, and first followed the procedures to receive this pious believer from the Northland.
First, I took him on a simple tour, then he presided over a simple prayer to the goddess, and finally watched him stuff three gold coins into the offering box!
After completing a whole set of ceremonies and procedures, the three of them came to the "promenade" a few meters away in the back garden and chatted.
According to this Getave's self-report, his whole family has been devout believers of the Holy See since their ancestors, and the badge of "Knight of Honor" on his chest was inherited from his grandfather.
His family has been craftsmen and craftsmen for generations, making children's toys, which is very common.
The reason why he was able to get this title, apart from implementing his lifelong faith, was to provide free toys to church orphanages from generation to generation, which lasted for five generations, deeply moved the Holy See, and finally awarded it to his grandfather that badge.
When talking about his family background, Getave's face was full of pride and excitement. He didn't feel that his ancestors were just ordinary craftsmen, and he was very proud of it.
Believers like this are the most valuable and admirable, and they are what every sect wants to win.
So Luo Xia decided not to correct his address, he can call him whatever he likes...
"Since my father, we have expanded our family's handicraft workshop into a toy factory, which can produce more and more interesting toys for the children. They all like it very much, and I am sincerely happy for it ..."
Getave was still speaking with vigor, but his style of painting suddenly changed, and his expression dimmed.
"But the city of oracle doesn't like my toys very much. I've been working hard to sell them these days, but I haven't even negotiated a single deal..."
"Originally, the orphanages of several sects showed interest in my toys, but when they heard that I was a devout believer of the goddess, there was no result... I have already decided to return to the Northland tomorrow, and today I will finally come to the church for a Pray, lucky to meet you."
"Archbishop Rorschach, I feel like this city is rejecting us?"
Rorschach nodded slightly, then reached out and rubbed his chin, and replied:
"Their prejudice and misunderstanding of the Northland have long been ingrained, and it may be difficult for you alone to reverse this concept..."
"But you could try that convent two streets away."
Getave's eyes lit up immediately, but he immediately asked with some hesitation:
"But I passed by that monastery before. I didn't even see the church. There were only construction sites and scaffolding. The statues on the square didn't even have heads. They must have just moved in, right? Will you have the time and energy to run the orphanage?"
Rorschach was a little embarrassed, so he had to go into more detail:
"Uh... this... you can have a long talk with a nun named Akatis, and say that I introduced it."
"Ok, I see!"
Getave just nodded, and immediately went on to say:
"It just so happens that I brought a lot of samples this time, as well as several pieces of amusement equipment. I originally planned to leave them for those orphanages to try out, but it turns out that I can't use them now, and it would be a waste of transportation costs to bring them back..."
"Why don't you just stay with you? You should also run an orphanage later, right? Just think of it as a preparation for the children in advance."
Rorschach wanted to reject subconsciously.
Where did he get the manpower to run the orphanage?
He must have neither the time nor the energy to take care of the children.
Nota is so flat, certainly not.
What's more, in a place like the City of Oracles, conventional means such as opening orphanages and running sectarian schools are not very effective means.
However, Luo Xia suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and quickly changed his mouth and said:
"Okay, my church is just short of some amusement facilities."
"Huh? Are you planning to install amusement rides in the church?"
"That's right, people in this city prefer a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere, and don't like the serious and serious style of the Northland, so I have been adjusting and adapting... Your toy can just help me make up for these shortcomings. By the way, I It can also help you advertise and promote it.”
"This... is this so? You really deserve to be crowned by the archbishop, this is beyond my imagination..."
The two of them agreed that Getaf would cancel the flight back to the Northland, and then arrange for workers to come over to arrange the amusement facilities for the Holy See, and then, according to Rorschach's recommendation, go to the monastery to try.
