Chapter 314 313 Sera's Past
Chapter 314 313. Sera's Past
Lu Yu, Lulu, and even Sera herself learned the real name of the black-clad nun for the first time - Mao Jing.
The three people had the same expression when they heard the name - confused, dazed, and then some of them were blinded...
Although they knew that the names of alien races were wild and unrestrained, but... looking left and right, Lu Yu really didn't see the elements of cats and thorns in the black-clad nun.
Lulu was the only one who was not mentally prepared for the appearance of Mao Jing.
"So young..."
The human-like face and mottled gradient green snake scales of Mao Jing looked about the same age as Sera. Lulu once thought that Mao Jing had also entered the twilight of her life.
After being surprised, she thought that snake people did have a longer lifespan than humans, and like elves, they would only age rapidly when their lifespan was about to end, so the exact age of Mao Jing was a mystery.
It is not gorgeous. Mao Jing's human appearance can only be described as delicate, but it is very attractive. Although Lu Yu is very curious about what Mao Jing will look like when she completely turns into a snake man, he really can't make this request. After all, Mao Jing is happily nestling in Laurende's arms. At this moment, she really looks like a kitten. It is hard to believe that she is the silent and capable black nun.
Like Laurende, Mao Jing is also suppressing her inner emotions. She has accompanied her beloved to play the role of the black nun for eighty years.
After the black nun left the Pope's Tower, Mao Jing contacted the people on the list one by one. Benlong took off again and again, transporting those who agreed to it to the territory of the Red Flame Mountains.
After seeing off the last batch of black nuns and the Pope's Knights, Mao Jing completely relaxed-she did not let down these children who trusted her, and found a land for them that could accommodate their bodies and souls.
Mao Jing believes that Lu Yu and others will bring happiness and rare tranquility on this land to these children who came from lonely backgrounds, just like Laurende.
The decentralization of power meant that there were no more documents and scrolls delivered to the Pope's Tower, and the messengers were also scattered to work for the various bishops.
Laurende, who had to face a large number of invitations, documents, and scrolls all day long, was free.
The arrogant Sera picked up a dead branch and drew a line outside the garden area. He patted his hands that were stained with a little mud and warned with a smile: "Those who cross the line will bear the consequences."
The naked threat from the chosen ones took effect. The glorious warriors found obvious markers and placed them on the randomly drawn line, fearing that they would make mistakes inadvertently.
The space that Sera fought for was well used by Laurende. In the warm afternoon sunshine, he walked in the garden with Mao Jing in his arms.
Lu Yu could see the swaying figures near the glorious tree. They were the figures of the glorious incarnations.
The extensions of the will of the church said nothing. Bathed in the glory, they silently replaced the position of the black nuns, witnessing and guarding Laurende's love.
The returning stupid dragon brought the fog demon, which was deeply loved by Laurende and Mao Jing. They had been in love for a lifetime but could not go any further. They obviously regarded this naughty guy as their daughter or granddaughter.
Knowing what his mission was, the fog demon turned into a kitten and jumped into Laurende's arms.
With a "cat" in each hand, Laurende smiled brightly.
Sigrid was indeed a qualified housekeeper. Knowing that Lu Yu would stay in the Church for a while, she specially sent a backpack for travel and a grill that Lu Yu had made in the territory with a summon when he was bored... There was even a seasoning that he had spent a lot of time re-proportioning, which was really a big help.
After the black-robed nun left, the Pope's Tower became much quieter. Only a dozen servants were cleaning the huge tower. Chatting and dazed began to become part of their daily life, and reminiscing about the past became more frequent.
In the kitchen, which should have been filled with smoke, the servants gathered. Laurende ordered all the ingredients sent by the Church State, which should have been enjoyed by him but could only be left idle or even discarded, to be cooked and distributed. The delicacies that were once only tasted by the nobles can now be enjoyed by everyone. An intoxicated expression appeared on everyone's face, which was the happiness and joy brought by food.
Regardless of rich or poor, noble or humble, or knowledgeable or not, the joy brought by food is simple and pure.
This is the simplest equality that Laurende can give to these people.
There are abundant ingredients in the kitchen. Lu Yu took a casual turn and found a lot of good things suitable for barbecue under the introduction of the chef.
"Does Lord Lu Yu need help?"
Feeling that the time to work in the Pope's Tower is getting less and less, these people who have served Laurende for many years hope to play a role at the last moment.
Looking at their pleading eyes, Lu Yu compromised.
"Cut the meat into slices as thick as your thumb. I'll marinate it myself. We'll have a barbecue together later."
Everyone...
The chef asked, "The Pope..."
"Someone will cook for him."
Everyone in the kitchen smiled knowingly and got busy under the chef's command.
As night fell, the noses of the patrolling Halo Warriors twitched. The smoky smell was filled with the rich aroma of meat. The Halo Warriors who thought the Pope's Tower was on fire were led to the boundary line drawn by Sera by the smell.
The smell was so tempting that even with the garden blocking them, their saliva was still secreted crazily.
Although they could no longer share the delicious food on the grill with everyone, but...the medicinal porridge cooked by Mao Jing was about to come out of the oven. Looking at her busy appearance, Laurende was satisfied and happy.
"Xiao An, come, ah~~~~" Lu Yu, holding a tray, forked a large piece of steak and put it on Xiao An's tentacles.
Xiao An was slow until the juice on the steak was sticky on his body, then he rolled up the steak with his tentacles and put it into his mouth little by little.
Maybe the steak was too big, and when Xiao An swallowed, his skirt, which was like rippling in the water, kept rolling and shrinking, and his soft and round body also became "long" little by little during the swallowing process.
After swallowing with difficulty, a piece of steak appeared in Xiao An's umbrella cap, floating continuously with Xiao An's slight shaking, and a large number of tiny bubbles kept coming out of the edge of the steak.
Hearing Laurent calling him, Lu Yu used Xiao An's tentacles as ropes and pulled this pitiful little cutie like a balloon.
"Is it her?"
Lu Yu nodded gently.
Laurent stood up curiously and walked around the dumbfounded Xiao An. He also grabbed Xiao An's "noodle" with interest and admired the faint dark purple lines on it. Then he stopped his eyes on the dark red, heart-like crystal core in Xiao An's umbrella.
"It looks like a sea creature called red moon jellyfish, but it's a little different..." The knowledgeable Laurent tried to find the inspiration for Lu Yu's summoning, but in the end he could only shake his head awkwardly.
Laurent gently hugged Xiao An: "I may have to trouble you and your master later."
Seeing that Xiao An had no response, Laurent was a little at a loss, thinking that his abrupt behavior made Xiao An unhappy.
Lu Yu explained with a dry laugh: "She is a little silly. My shaping elements often tease her, but no matter how she teases, she will only hide after realizing it, and will not resist. When she is really scared, she will lie on me and tremble..."
Laurent stroked Xiao An: "Because of being silly, you like her... So you seem to like Lulu more than Sera, which is understandable."
The jumping of the topic made Lu Yu at a loss. Although it seems to be somewhat related... But this level of finding opportunities is worthy of the Pope?
Lu Yu looked around nervously and found that Sera, Lulu, and the fog demon were all in the distance. Mao Jing was carrying barbecue to find the radiant incarnation. For a while, there was no one around... He breathed a sigh of relief.
No, why should I secretly confirm these things...
"Please don't say anything that can be easily misunderstood by the two of them."
"Misunderstanding means that you actually like Sera, and your reaction... cares a lot."
"No, no, no, I definitely didn't say that." Lu Yu shook his head violently, "I believe you also know that Sera likes Lulu."
Laurende smiled slightly: "So I let her follow you to leave the Church. In your territory, she can express her love freely, and will not be restricted by the eyes of the world and have to suppress her emotions again and again."
"You know it all, but you still tease me about this." Lu Yu muttered.
It seems that he said too much in one breath. Laurent is a little tired. After drinking a glass of mixed juice, his pale face has a little rosy color.
"I not only know that she likes Lulu, but also that she likes to steal offerings." Laurent said, "Lu Yu, have you ever thought about why Sera is so obsessed with stealing offerings?"
Lu Yu did think about it, but in the end he could only classify it as Sera's bad taste. Apart from the two problems of not believing in God and stealing offerings, she is a model of the believers of the Church - both acting skills and strength.
"Has Sera told you about her life experience?"
"Something was said. She lost all her family in the great cold wave that swept half of Mera. She was starving and cold, and was saved by an old man who believed in the God of Light with relief food. Later, she was found by the believers of the Church and survived."
"It seems that she didn't tell you the story before." Laurent glanced at Sera who was hugging Lulu in the distance, and his smile gradually disappeared. "Sera's family believes in a local religion called 'Glow of the Morning Star' in Kodzoen, and most religions are It is a sickle that harvests ordinary people in the name of relief. The only difference is whether it is more tender or more ruthless. "
"When the great cold wave came, Sera's parents were bewitched by the light of the morning star and supplied most of their food to the group of insects, who claimed that the gods would stop the cold wave from coming."
Laurent said sadly: "You guessed the result. Until they fell to the ground in the snow, they did not see the god who stopped the snow and wind appear...Since the day her family died in the cold wave, Sera no longer believed in the existence of gods."
