Chapter 201 Pei Man: Protect the Lord's Children
Tingen, Hallsstrasse.
"Ah! Ahh!"
Leonard sneezed violently several times. Before he could pick up the napkin, soft paper appeared on his mouth and nose. A familiar female voice came to his ears:
"Oh, is this a cold? That's terrible! I guess we should cover ourselves with blankets at night..."
Peiman chuckled, threw away the tissue and said thoughtfully:
"Well, actually in my hometown, if you sneeze suddenly, it means someone is talking about you behind your back... Who is it? You've never had a girlfriend..."
Leonard was stunned for a moment. The "Midnight Poet" had a significant effect on improving his physical condition. He had not suffered from any common diseases in the past few years! Could it be that someone was really talking about me behind my back?
Hey, this is normal, the captain and the others...
Unfortunately... even if I was "resurrected", I couldn't go back to the church, and I couldn't go back to the Blackthorn Security Company...
Leonard was very depressed and even thought that it would be better if he was not "resurrected". In that case, he could return to eternal sleep and would not have to face such an embarrassing situation...
As if she could see the poet's loneliness, Peiman picked up the chopsticks made from tree branches, picked up some hot and sour potato shreds and brought them to his mouth, saying:
“As long as you are alive, you are alive. If you die, you have nothing.
"Besides, aren't you a believer? It was your goddess who sent you back, are you going to go against her will?
"Open your mouth and taste this, ah~"
Leonard's expression showed rejection. He wanted to say that he knew how to eat... well, it seemed like he really didn't know how to use this strange tableware. Moreover, the dishes that Peiman made were also very strange, a bit like the "stir-fried dishes" that were passed down by Emperor Roselle.
Just as he was about to open his mouth and eat the dish "humiliatingly", suddenly, the potato shreds that were firmly clamped slipped off and fell onto Leonard's white shirt, leaving traces of oil stains.
Leonard looked up in confusion, only to see Peiman standing there in a daze, her expression quickly becoming terrified and distorted.
Creak! She stood up suddenly, kicked the chair behind her, and walked quickly towards the stairs, but suddenly fell to the ground halfway. She held her head with both hands, gritted her teeth and screamed:
"No, don't look at me! Turn away!
"what!!"
Peiman could no longer endure the horrible whispering in her ears, she let out a heart-wrenching scream, her delicate face distorted and extremely hideous, she rolled on the carpet, wanting to tear her face with her hands, but desperately resisted the urge.
Leonard's expression immediately turned serious. He rushed to Peiman and wanted to help, but he didn't know how...
He always remembered that this lady was the "Secret Prayer" of the Aurora Society! Recently, she was rewarded by the "God's Messenger" and became a "Listener"!
But! Praying to that evil god always comes at a price! That's why Leonard came out to stop Peiman when she was about to pray to the gods to prove her innocence. He definitely didn't want the lady who saved his life to pay the price because of him!
Leonard didn't know where to start, and asked anxiously:
"How can I help you?! Peiman! What should I do!?"
Peiman's tears and snot were all thrown out, and she couldn't help but yell:
"Get out! Get out of here! Don't look at me!
"I repent! I am guilty! Praise the Lord!"
Leonard was certain that Peiman was influenced by the evil god. A thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and he immediately recited devoutly:
"Ah, the threat of fear, the crimson hope!
"One thing is true: this life flies by..."
This is the extraordinary power of the "Midnight Poet", which can drag people into dreams! And dreams are the domain of the "Goddess of Night"!
……
Not long after, Peiman woke up, and the first person she saw was the handsome Leonard. She immediately reached out and touched her face, and when she found that there was no snot or tears, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It was just a dream... She just dreamed that she returned to the world of Earth, and returned to the world of the "famous detective", and went through the "plot" again! Although it was quite exciting, she still couldn't bear to part with the handsome guy she had got!
"Oh, Mr. Leonard, did you deliberately drag me into this dream? Are you going to do something bad to me? You really know how to play~"
Leonard looked down at the grease on his shirt, hid the napkin he had just used to wipe Peiman's face behind him, and said with a forced smile:
"Yeah, sorry, I was just experimenting with my extraordinary abilities and accidentally affected you."
"Really..." Pei Man was a little confused, but suddenly stood up and said:
"That's right! I received an oracle from the Creator, saying that we must protect His children! Uh, does He have children?"
……
Backlund, Holy Wind Cathedral.
"Yes, I'm sure. I'm going back to Tingen. Sorry, Deacon Roy." Old Blue replied without any hesitation.
"If you stay in Backlund Parish, you will also be a deacon of the Mandated Punisher. When you have digested the potion, you can directly obtain the Sea Singer potion and be promoted to a senior deacon... Do you know what this means?" Roy rubbed his face hard and gritted his teeth. He did not wait for the old man to answer and said fiercely:
“This means that you have completed the journey that I took over the past five or ten years in less than a month!
"I really wonder, what did you do when you were young... Why! Why did you only show your talent now! Why did I have to meet someone like you! The young people of our generation pale in comparison to you!
"People like you! Become a demigod, a saint as soon as possible! Don't give me hope of catching up!
“But now, you want to go back to Tingen... You just gave up the position that was within your grasp and gave up everything we pursued!
"Why! What gives you the right to be so willful! 'God's Favored One'?!" Roy Wellington's eyes were bloodshot and the following words were shouted out.
Old Blue looked at the thin man who was almost out of control with his hands on the table. The corners of his mouth twitched. He supported the table with his left hand, sat up from the chair opposite the desk, and stroked his chin with his right hand. There were also bloodshot in his eyes, but his voice was extremely steady.
"I heard you say you have a daughter...
“You don’t plan to make her a Beyonder, do you?
"Don't force her to change her will, but go along with it, guide her, and... communicate more.
“My son is still waiting for me in Tingen, I have to go back.
"By the way, Fors and Xio, remember to take care of them. Thank you, Deacon Roy."
There was a creaking sound of a chair rubbing against the ground. Old Blue picked up his black felt hat, bowed to Roy, then turned and left the deacon's office.
Roy sat down dejectedly in the office chair. He had read all the information about Old Blue and understood what the old man had experienced in recent years. But precisely because he knew this, he didn't want the old man to return to Tingen!
The sight of things reminds me of someone...I can really commit suicide!
Roy Wellington gritted his teeth, picked up a round-bellied fountain pen, and wrote on a piece of yellow-brown imitation parchment:
“Tingen Parish Development Plan
"...
"Planner: Blue."
……
“A fool who is not of this age;
“The mysterious master above the gray fog;
"The King of Yellow and Black who controls good luck."
Hiss! Fors jumped up from the sofa with horror in his eyes. How could the official information of the Church of Storms given by Old Blue - the Secret Existence Chapter - have a complete name recorded in Elvish?
You should know that this language is similar to ancient Hermetic language. Even if you recite it silently in your heart, the corresponding hidden being will hear your prayers!
This, this, this... isn't this harmful to people?
It definitely wasn't done by Old Blue. There are worms inside the Church of Storms! Damn it!
Ask for help! Ask for help from Old Blue and Klein! They are all "God's Blessed Ones" and will definitely receive God's blessing!
Fors was about to take a step, but was shocked to find a deep red spreading in front of her eyes, suddenly engulfing her figure.
"Fors, are you okay?" Xio pushed open Fors's door and saw her friend sleeping soundly on the sofa. She felt funny and took a soft blanket from the bed and gently covered Fors with it. Then she picked up the pile of documents that fell on the ground and took a subconscious look. She only saw the page that was unfolded:
"A fool who does not belong to this era..."
