Chapter 49 (1/2)

The sharp knife shook gently, hummed and cut the white bread into pieces, smeared a little bit of tender yellow cheese, and picked it up with the tip of the knife and sent it to the entrance.

Well... It would be perfect if I could have another glass of wine.

The clean and tidy room, the peaceful atmosphere and the dawn through the window together make up this perfect morning. The cheerful Loren enjoyed the breakfast quietly, which didn't look like being under house arrest at all.

Just what he knew, there were two cavalry of the Holy Cross Church outside his room. If he expected it well, there should be others nearby. As long as you dare to go out of the room, three knives and six holes are definitely not the worst result.

What happened last night?

I found a way to clean up the thin wizard and two mercenaries, and then the people of the Holy Cross Church arrived - only half a day away, indicating that the other party came earlier than myself, and there was a fully armed cavalry team. I'm afraid it was definitely not just a simple thing for a new priest to take office.

Did he come for father Anthony?

It is possible, but not entirely certain, but at least it should be one of the purposes. Such a big appearance in Gumu town is definitely not a small picture.

If the gloves or the remaining bottles of alchemy are still there, I may be able to find a way to leave quietly from here, but the other party obviously won't leave anything for me - when he came in, all the things on Lauren, together with the ”bright silver”, were taken away, leaving him only a portable short knife.

From last night until now, Lauren has always been in this room, and the other party has no intention of talking to him and understanding the situation. If not for this purpose, what is the purpose of holding yourself here?

silenced?

Lauren's mouth tilted slightly, and he felt that he was close to the truth of the whole incident. It's just a little unclear. It's only a layer of window paper. The ”gentleman” hiding in the shadow will appear in front of him.

It took only one day to get from ancient town to vimpal college, and four days after Dalton received the news of father Anthony's death, the Holy Cross Church came to the College - minus the time difference, we can know that after Dalton returned from ancient town, the church came to ancient town.

This is definitely not a coincidence, and there has never been a coincidence in the world. Although Dalton didn't say it clearly, he must have noticed something inadvertently and attracted the attention of the church. This is the only reasonable explanation.

The people of the church should not be so crazy as to kill a priest. What exactly is the origin of these people and what are they plotting? It seems strange to say that these people have nothing to do with the church. Otherwise, why do the two groups of people appear for less than half a day?

Loren, full of confused information, didn't even hear the sound of knocking at the door. He didn't react until someone came into the room. A nervous little priest came into his eyes.

”Great, I thought you... Blessed by the Holy Cross after I heard about last night!” the nervous and happy little priest quickly retracted the second half of the sentence, came forward with great concern and asked, ”Lord Loren Turin, are you all right?”

”Business as usual.” Lauren shrugged his shoulders and listened ”casually.” what's going on outside - are there many believers outside the church? ”

”Thanks to the Holy Cross, we have had the most difficult days. Of course, Lord Francis and the soldiers who came with him.” while sitting down, the little priest did not forget to say a few words of gratitude: ”now everything in Gumu town has returned to normal, Lord Francis has taken over here temporarily, and the rest can only wait for the new priest.”

Francis... Is the one who came to the college last time. Loren's heart was clear: ”this adult must be very pious? I heard that he is not very friendly to people like me.”

”Er... Yes, but it's just out of the belief in the Holy Cross. In addition, adults are still very friendly.” the little priest explained a little embarrassed: ”I have explained to adults that all this is a misunderstanding. You and those blasphemous guys are not a group, and adults have believed it.”
