203 Chapter 195 - Maria and Dominic. (1/2)
”Oh my! I'm clean! Yes! I'm clean!” Maria exclaimed, rather excited.
The guard smiled and lead him to... Hold on, before that, let's turn back the time to before Maria departed to Quill Town.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
”Listen up Maria, this is an important operation, you need to get to Dominic's side and monitor every single movement of him.” said Chris.
”Anything I need to pay attention to?” Maria asked.
”To prevent any unnecessary trouble, before you depart, please have this capsule made by Ben. It can give an illusion that you are cleansed inside out, even if they actually used their advanced devices, they would not notice it.” said Chris.
Maria nodded, rather serious.
”Oh! And please wear this white robe that we never planned to return to the merchants who lend it to us.” said Chris.
”Yes Sir!” Maria is super excited that he doesn't realize what kind of job Chris had given to him.
”One more thing, take a bath in the oasis in the basement before you go, make sure you are all clean.” said Chris, and weirdly, kind of teasing.

Present, Quill Town.
The guard led Maria to the cathedral and is greeted by Nathan at the front door.
”Are you the temporary assistant recommended by Brother Chris?” Nathan asked, as usual with no emotion.
”Yes I am.” said Maria with a formal tone.
And so, Nathan led Maria into the cathedral, then the backroom where Dominic is located at.
”Hello, I'm Dominic, the mayor as well the high priest of Quill Town.” Dominic greeted Maria in his formal tone.
”What? Is he an angel? Chris chan didn't tell me about that.” Maria thought while glared at Dominic.
”Hmm... That expression of yours is similar to how Chris and his friends saw me the first time we met. Are you having any issues with angels before to have such a reaction?” Dominic asked, as if he could read Maria's mind.
Maria is a bit surprised by that sudden question from Dominic, he thought for a while and remembered that Chris had reassured him that he can answer any questions Dominic wanted to know as long as it's not confidential.
”Yes, we are indeed having bad experiences with angels, but doesn't mean that we hate all the angels, it purely depends on the situation.” said Maria, this time it's Dominic the one that gets surprised.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
”Hah! Don't worry, I believe once he knows Dominic's identity, he will go 'Ah... So you are Chris-chan's mother's old acquaintance! Then we are comrades, I shall call you as Domi-chan.' or something like that.” said Chris, imitating Maria's tone, Sky burst into a short laughter after hearing that.
