Chapter 75: Back To Edley
At this time, in Fenrir's prison, Nasura grabbed his aquamarine hair and fell into confusion. He didn't know what was going on, and he even believed in the conjectures of Marquis Carmon and others. O'Neill came to him as a scapegoat, and it was his original plan to join forces with Saruman, who violated the precepts, to attack the Principality of Kasmi. Nashura, who devotes himself to knowledge, is a complete fool when it comes to understanding the world. Stupid as stupid as the commoners who believe in fanciful rumors.
Suddenly, the guards standing in front of the prison door, wearing chain armor and coat of arms holding hooked sickle spears, suddenly fell to the ground without saying a word. Nashura was startled, but when he raised his head, he saw Adele opening the cell door with a dagger in her hand, and walked in with a very serious expression. "How did you open the cell door?" Nashura asked in a daze. But such dizzying words caused Adele to roll her eyes, she stepped forward and grabbed Nashura's lapel and said, "You shouldn't care about this issue. The first thing is that you have to go out." "No! I won't go out!"
Nashura stubbornly shook off his hand. Sitting in the prison cell again. Adela looked at Nashura who was acting like a child at this time, and suddenly felt a tremor in her heart, squatted down and said in a childish tone: "Good boy, there is no way for you to be trapped here. I know you don't want to get involved The teacher of the Tower Forest, but no matter what, you can't do anything here!" As soon as she said this, a hesitant expression appeared on Nashura's face. Adele took advantage of the situation to persuade him, "And I vaguely saw the attacker in the morning. It's definitely not O'Neill! Although I haven't mentioned him, the weird aura definitely doesn't come from a mage. "
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSeeing the expression on Nashura's face somewhat loosened. Adele half-jokingly said: "You could have handed me over to Marquis Carmon. This way you will not only be free, your friend can also be cleared of suspicion!" "How can I do that?"
To Adela's surprise, Nashura's reaction to this statement was very intense, and he stood up at once. He looked at Adele with gleaming eyes and said, "I can't give you away just because of a friend! Besides, nowadays, the H-Assassin Alliance is wanted by the Holy See. You're absolutely dead if you go!" "What, do you still want to stay here?" Adele rarely showed her womanly attitude in front of Nashura. She leaned back and crossed her arms. She looked at Nashura, who had regained his composure, in a very petulant manner.
"Well, it's useless to stay here. Thank you. However, my scrolls and wands and many other things….." "Idiot, take it." Adele laughed and took out the props and wands laid out on the folded magic robe from behind her back. Handing them to Nashura. ". Thanks." Nashura was suddenly speechless. Only the word thank you could be squeezed out. The prison soldiers would not treat a magic robe properly. It must have been folded by Adelea herself privately. Nashura only felt a wave of warmth spread throughout his body. Suddenly he smiled very confidently and grabbed Adele's small hand and said: "Come on, let's go out together! Find my friend and ask what really happened." "Hmm...." Adele blushed slightly. She suddenly felt that this dirty and damp prison was extraordinarily beautiful. She wished this moment in front of her could go on forever.
So soon after that, the news of Nashura's escape from prison reached the ears of a group of close friends including Marquis Carmon. What a coincidence is that, originally there was some doubt that the mages of Hellite would not do something so out of the ordinary, after hearing this news, but determined that the mages of the Forest of Hellite Tower would intervene. Believe in this matter completely, and if you are aggressive, you must talk to the person in charge of the Master Association in the Principality of Kasmi to have a good chat about life!
But these are things for later. At this time, Paladin rushed back to Nurba. After hiding Aberleigh in the basement and packing up the five hundred gold coins promised to Bishop Andrew. When he was about to leave the church and go to Edley openly. The messenger who was in charge of delivering the letter to Paladin suddenly came to meet him. "Oh! Father, you have come back so soon! I have come here especially to thank you for your expensive reward."
The messenger, who received three gold coins and was unsure of his heart, did not know that at this moment, looking at him coming to him, Paladin suddenly had a murderous feeling in his heart! "This is a witness! To prove that I received a letter from Aaron today! We must get rid of it, completely!" The messenger looked at Paladin's smiling expression, the cold meaning in his eyes, and suddenly there was a strange sense of crisis that greeted him.
In the evening of that day, when the setting sun was about to put out the last ray of brilliance in the sky. The messenger disappeared completely from the world. Of course, it would be a different matter if he could be recognized from the pile of shapeless rotten meat in the grass.
When Paladin came to Edley, all the houses in the city lit up the smoke, lit up the lights of each house, and were having a warm dinner. Paladin walked in the empty streets, smelling the various aromas wafting from all directions. Suddenly, he had an indescribable sense of loss. He suddenly stopped, looking next to the open window of the house, a child full of smiles was holding red cherries, bite after bite swallowed constantly. And next to it was sitting a pair of man and woman, that Paladin never saw the smile is now from the couple's face. And deeply reflected in Paladin's heart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSilently watching all this. Paladin did not say a word. Just quietly looked at the family of three for a while, before tightening the bag full of gold coins in his hands and stepping away to the magnificent Edley Cathedral in front of him. What is the significance of this to Paladin? No meaning. A monster that is getting strong by sucking the life out of its own kind will long for that ethereal kinship?
Maybe the young Paladin did long for it, maybe he really lay in the dilapidated bed every night in his childhood in the Free Masons Association, longing for the love of his parents. But now he is gone. What Paladin has now is more precious than what all parents can give their children! This is his parents, his life, his dignity, his future, all of him. This is the Philosopher's Stone.
He temporarily suppressed these whimsical thoughts. Paladin entered Edley Cathedral. Seeing that there was no one in the main hall, he went up to the second floor on his own. As soon as the door was opened, the dining table was covered with the best red silk, and the side was filled with delicious food. Bishop Andrew and another priest in white looked at him in unison with surprise. "Oh, my lord bishop, sorry to keep you waiting."
With a very polite bow, Paladin backhandedly closed the wooden door and walked in. Andrew casually took a piece of fatty beef on the plate with a fork into his mouth. Savor the juiciness and freshness of this, and then take a sip of the blood-like red wine in the glass, after wiping his mouth with the napkin on his chest. Adopting a slightly reproachful tone, he said, "Father Paladin, it seems that your concept of time is worse than I thought."
Paladin stood aside and laughed along with him. But his eyes began to look at another person in the restaurant. This is a priest in a white robe. Although the decoration of the robe is not the standard clothes of the Holy See, it is also made of extremely exquisite and expensive materials. Unexpectedly, this very young priest has shoulder-length long hair and sharp eyes that look slightly sinister. He looks like a cold young man. Maybe he's about the same age as Paladin. But the strange thing is that the young man just glanced at Paladin and then lowered his head to look at the food. Giving a feeling of contempt. What drew Paladin's attention even more was that the food on his plate was full of vegetables and fruits. And three slices of golden bread!
"Is this guy a vegetarian? Is he an ascetic monk? What is the meaning of Andrew calling such a person at this time?" Paladin had many thoughts in his mind. With a smile on his face, he gently shook the purse in his hand. There was a slight sound of gold coins colliding: "My lord, please forgive me, after all, the people of the church I belong to are too enthusiastic." After finishing speaking, he put the gold coin bag on the platform next to him, and there was another crisp sound of gold coins.
