Chapter 101 Rest Time (Thirteen)

"Your Excellency, Bishop."

Alicia saluted the old man in white robe standing in front of her.

"No, I am no longer a bishop."

The nearly 70-year-old man smiled and greeted Alicia, but his eyes fell more on the man following her.

The focused gaze like a hawk almost eroded him from the inside out. When he turned his gaze back to Alicia, he returned to the gentleness of his old father.

Ji Lin secretly said in his heart that he had no intention of offering your cabbage.

"Isn't there anything that needs to be done at the monastery?"

the old man asked.

"Today is my day off and I have some free time."

Alicia put down the fruits and pastries she was carrying, and Ji Lin, who was following her, followed her movements and placed the items on the table.

The first thing she took herself to see was not the various glorious wonders in the city, but an... orphanage deep in the neighborhood?

Ji Lin was unfamiliar with this city, so naturally he couldn't come by himself, so he handed over the guidance to the priestess who was born and raised in this city.

Even if she is no longer wearing the priest's uniform, she can still easily attract the attention of passers-by.

Quite attractive.

Ji Lin somewhat understood why she had to put on other clothes.

From the moment she stepped into the orphanage, Alicia's temperament changed unknowingly.

As soon as she entered, a group of children surrounded her.

"Today my sister has a great story to tell you~"

Alicia touched the children's heads and sat on the ground, while the children sat in a circle and listened to the story the big sister told them.

In their impression, this big sister would come once a month, and every time she would bring them delicious fruits and stories from outside...sometimes she would also hold up the code of commandments and tell them to them like a nightingale. content therein.

The little heads all looked attentive, hooked by the wonderful plot of the story.

That was the story he and Alicia shared.

The old man patted him on the shoulder and motioned for him to take the fruits and snacks inside with him.

"here..."

Ji Lin's eyes scanned the interior walls, which were peeling off pieces of plaster. The uneven walls revealed the stone bricks hidden underneath.

He also remembered how the church looked from the outside. It looked older than ordinary houses, but not dilapidated. Every place had been carefully repaired. It can be imagined that the maintainers had maintained this small church very well. good.

“I don’t have much money to decorate, so that’s it.”

The old man explained to him that they walked to the chapel with the fruits and cakes they had just brought. It was not necessarily a chapel. The tables and chairs here had been completely dismantled and replaced with long tables for people to sit on. dining table.

"This is an abandoned church, and it must be renovated according to the church's specifications... Otherwise, sorry to the gods, the people from the monastery will also cause trouble. At that time, I relied on my status as bishop to get this abandoned church. "

After his retirement as a bishop, his pension was quite large, but it was only enough to support the healthy growth of this group of children. As for the updating of furniture and various facilities, it all relied on donations.

Here are all orphans left behind for various reasons.

"That..."

Ji Lin was about to say something, but was interrupted by the old man.

"I won't change it." The old man shook his head: "This is their home."

"I told her that I wanted to see this city, so she brought me here first. Is this her... home?"

Ji Lin smiled, hiding his embarrassment.

"Oh! Then just cook lunch, for two more people... You don't have any taboos, right? As for the child's problem, she promised to show you the city, so she will do it ”

The old man patted the non-existent dust on his clothes, but did not answer his question, and motioned to him to just put the fruit aside.

Then, walk into the kitchen, let the white flame light up from the stove, and slowly heat the cold water in the pot.

Not a gas stove, but a flame generated directly by the old man.

Divine magic? I can't see clearly the generation process of any magic model.

"Don't look at this waste, you can save a lot of fuel money in a month. How to control energy output is also a knowledge."

Ji Lin stretched out his hand, and a similar light blue-white flame also jumped in his palm. However, it could not maintain its shape for a few seconds and collapsed into a real mist.

"No, your magic is not magic. You cannot be the same as me."

The old man still looked at him with a smile, and his eyes inevitably revealed a hint of surprise at the moving mist.

"But you can also come and help me chop vegetables. I'm old and can't cook and chop vegetables at the same time."

Ji Lin rolled up his sleeves, took out a few potatoes, soaked them and began to peel them. The blade of the knife cut across them, and the brown skin fell to the ground, revealing bright yellow potatoes.

All the delicacies in the territory are made by him.

But he was chatting with the old man without saying a word.

"Can I give these children a math test? For children with good grades, I can provide them with education until college and be responsible for all their expenses."

To be honest, Ji Lin wanted to take away the bishop and the entire orphanage. He would take away the children in the name of funding, and the bishop would not watch the children being taken away. At this time, he proposed to let the bishop take away the children in the name of funding. In the name of guardian, he went to his territory and established an orphanage (church).

Although a bit despicable.

Take away a retired bishop who opened an orphanage. His character and attitude are far better than those guys in the city hall who questioned him. He cares about children and is the best choice no matter how you look at it.

He can also directly benefit from the Church of the God of Light.

Perfect!

He can even use him to avoid other guys from the Church of Light from making comments.

This is just an attempt. If he fails, he will not suffer any loss. At worst, he can help the territory replenish some population.

"Of course, it would be great if you are willing to sponsor them to complete the course." The old man smiled and said, "May the Goddess of Light bless you."
