Chapter 642: The Holy Maiden Descends
"This is the ......... Passus"
Looking at the beautiful scenery outside the car window, the girl's eyes widened, with a little surprise and curiosity on her face.
"I really didn't expect that in the current troubled times, there is such a comfortable paradise......... It seems that the lord really deserves his name. ”
"Your Highness, you may be exaggerating."
Hearing the girl's emotion, the maid sitting beside her pursed her lips slightly dissatisfied.
"It's nothing but a false illusion built up with momentary wealth, and it seems to me like a beautiful bubble that might burst at the slightest poke."
"That's not right for you to say that."
Hearing this, the girl shook her head slightly.
"You know, how to use wealth is also a talent. We have seen many dignitaries, many of whom are rich and rival the country, but even in their territory, I have never seen such a vibrant and clean territory. Wealth itself is not a sin, and if it is used well, then it can also become power. If you don't have enough wealth, even if you have a lofty ideal in your heart, it's hard to achieve it, right? ”
"That's not what I meant......... Your Highness, forget it, I heard that the rumored Lord of Passus is difficult to deal with. I have secretly inquired with several bishops, and I have heard that the young lord turns his face faster than he turns a book, and he is ruthless, and never saves face for others........."
"We treat each other with courtesy and convince people with sincerity, not looking for trouble in the past, Xiaoxue."
In the face of the maid's uneasy complaints, the girl chuckled and shook her head. Then she reached out. Stroking the hair of the maid beside him.
"Don't forget, this time we're in Passus. In order to convince the Son and her lord. And not to clash with them. Neither is that a good thing for us. ”
"You're right, Your Highness, but ........."
Hearing the answer of the person she served, the maid nodded. But she hesitated for a moment, but still whispered.
"But it's really, really tricky........."
"Oh?"
Hearing the other party's words, the girl tilted her head curiously, while the maid thought for a while, and finally spoke.
"Something about God's outcasts. I asked the people down there, and this was a big problem. Moreover, this trouble had nothing to do with our Templar Order, but we ......... Alas............" Saying this, the maid also sighed helplessly. "To be honest, I don't even know how to deal with those outcasts right now............"
Hearing this, the girl's expression also became a little gloomy. Before coming here, she had also investigated the outcasts in depth, and she was shocked by the information she had received. Previously, she only knew about the birth of God's outcasts. But I didn't know much about these abandoned children. But when the girl made up her mind to start investigating, she finally realized how heavy the darkness was hidden behind the words "Godforsaken", and even she couldn't withstand the pressure on her face. To be honest, after learning about those things. She hadn't slept well in days.
This is a mistake. What pained her the most was that the entire Templar Order, up and down, had no one to correct the mistake. That's what makes her the most sad. It is also the most embarrassing point for girls. Although rumors of "God's outcasts" did not come from the Templar Order, no clergy member has ever said in public that "God's outcasts" are indeed God's outcasts. But. As the spokesmen of the gods, it is indeed necessary for them to protect those who are harassed by gossip from the threat of these lies.
But they didn't do it.
There are many reasons for this. And these reasons are very plausible. But in the girl's mind, these were just excuses, and the Templar Order just didn't want to cause such trouble, and ......... It is inevitable that deep down they don't really have such thoughts in it.
This is what makes the girl feel the most sad.
"But we have to face it."
With that, the girl straightened up and clenched her fists.
"It's our responsibility."
"yes......... I hope the lord can speak better, otherwise...... I don't know what will happen yet. ”
As she spoke, the maid frowned and glanced behind her, only to see that behind their carriage, there was a luxurious carriage following closely behind, and from the gorgeous sculptures inlaid with gold and silver on it, it could be seen that the other party was definitely not a humble person.
"Your Highness, are you really not going to ask him to go back? If that lord of Passus is as terrible as the rumors say, then this guy might be ruining our business! ”
"There's nothing I can do ............"
Hearing this, the girl also had a headache. She hadn't planned to bring too many people with her on this trip, and in fact, the carriage behind the girl wasn't one of the Templars. A young girl, on the other hand, can refuse to allow others to go with her, but there is nothing she can do to stop others from moving forward -- after all, the road is there, and whoever wants to go is free for the other person. The other party insists on following her, what can she do? Do you want her to send a paladin to drive them away?
Not to mention, that's also a special person.
If you had known this, you should not have rejected Uncle Montgomery's suggestion in the first place.
For the first time, the girl felt a little depressed in her heart. And at this moment, the maid's voice sounded in her ears again.
"Your Highness, look, we've arrived!"
The carriage followed the road by the lake, and Jenn stood at the door of the abbey, looking at the carriage coming in the distance, and habitually reached out and pushed his glasses. Then he turned his head and glanced at Enoa beside him.
"It seems that our guests are indeed honorable."
The reason why Jenn said this was naturally not out of mockery, but simply recounted a fact. In fact, it is. Not far in front of them, a pure white carriage was speeding forward. The carriage was drawn by six horses in three rows, and they were all rare pure white horses. Besides. There were several paladins surrounding the carriage in front of and behind the carriage, and judging by the gold trim on the armor of these paladins, these were all high-ranking knights of the Templar Order. To be able to be escorted by such a high-ranking paladin, the archbishop of a slightly inferior position does not have this qualification. And now, these high-ranking knights are here as the escorts of this carriage, which shows that the characters in this carriage are definitely not ordinary.
Could it be that the old immortals of the Supreme Council have finally moved their nests?
Thinking of this, Jenn turned his wrist and placed his right hand on the hilt of his sword. Then he tapped the hilt of the sword lightly. And at this time, the convoy in front of me had already arrived in front of the monastery.
“―――!”
With the neighing of the horses, the convoy stopped, only to see the paladins immediately dismount at once, and then came to the vicinity of the carriage and surrounded it. Then, a paladin who looked like the leader of the chamber stepped forward, respectfully approached the carriage, then knelt down on one knee and whispered.
"Your Highness. We've arrived. ”
Your Highness?
Hearing this, Jenn twitched the corners of his eyes, there are not many people in the Templar Order who are qualified to be called "His Highness", is it.........
But. Before Jenn could figure it out, the door of the carriage slowly opened, and then followed. A figure appeared in front of Jenn.
It was a beautiful and elegant maiden.
She was dressed in a pure white priest's robe, and her white-blond hair hung down like a waterfall to her feet. The beautiful face that seems to be completely pampered in one is even more difficult to look at. Even if you look at her, you will feel the dazzling light emanating from that beauty. It's almost impossible to look at. Thinking of this, Jenn turned his head and glanced at Enoa beside him, and had to admit that the two people looked very similar. The same noble and elegant, the same beautiful and moving, even the temperament is almost the same. However, the girl in front of her is pure Cassus blood, and the outline of her facial features is more distinct. Enoya, on the other hand, shows her charm through the soft curves of the side. If the girl in front of her is the sun, then Enoa is the moon.........
Thinking of this, Jenn raised his eyebrows, but said nothing. In fact, he had already guessed who the comer was. In her world, Enoa is a noble lady and a priest who serves the gods. And at the moment, this girl is almost no different from Enoa in terms of temperament, so in this way, her identity can be determined.
"Welcome to Passus, Your Highness."
Seeing the girl and her party come forward, Jenn also hurriedly bent down and saluted. He already knew who it was, and that he could have so many high-ranking knights accompanying him, known as His Highness, and then his temperament was the same as that of Enoya, then in the entire Templar Order, there was only one person who met this identity, and that was the "Loving Daughter".
That is, this Holy Highness.
She is the granddaughter of Nora, the Sage of Light, and the leader of the Sisterhood of Light. The nature of this organization is similar to that of Jenn's charity on Earth, which specializes in helping the needy. Because of this, Her Highness also enjoys a high reputation on the Klein Continent. But Jenn remembered her not for the good deeds she had done, but for her name.........
"Your Excellency, you don't have to be polite."
In the face of Jenn's salute, the girl smiled slightly, and then spoke.
"I'm a guest from afar, I'm just an ordinary guest here, you just need to call me Ellie."
"Yes, Miss Ellie."
Hearing this, Jenn flashed a smile in his eyes, and then nodded and replied -- this name is a model of my generation that I will never forget......... Would Your Highness mind if I asked where your father is at the moment?
Putting away the cranky thoughts in his head, Jenn quickly stood up and looked at Ellie.
"I've read your intentions from the Knight of Montgomery's letter, and now, please follow me........."
As he spoke, Jenn made an inviting gesture. Seeing his movements, the girl also smiled slightly, then stretched out her hand, put it on the right hand handed by Jenn, and followed his traction to enter the monastery in front of her.
And at this moment, from behind them, a voice suddenly came.
"Wait, I'm going in too!" (To be continued.) )
