The city of St. Caesar is located in the heart of the heart of the Holy Empire, with four distinct seasons throughout the year. It was late autumn and the night was chilly. The layout of the city of San Caesar is peculiar, and the whole city is neatly divided into two by the Boulevard San Lino.

The eastern part is centered on Caesar's Palace, which gathers all the central institutions of the Holy Empire, so the eastern district is often referred to as the imperial capital. The western part is centered on the Vatican Basilica and is the core of the Holy Religion, so another name for the western area is the Holy City.

The east and west are distinctly separated, and they form a whole. It's like the Holy Empire and the Holy Religion, the Imperial Power and the Divine Power, forever entangled, but each performing its own duties.

A beautifully decorated carriage was driving down the wide Boulevard San Lino in the bleak autumn breeze. The carvings on the carriages were not the family crests commonly used by nobles, nor the god of light, the main god of the Holy Cult, but the rare goddess of war.

In the carriage, Mistress Mary and Julia sat opposite each other. Mistress Mary's expression was serious, and Julia bowed her head and remained silent.

"You shouldn't have done that. Mistress Mary was the first to speak.

Hearing this, Yulia knew that her aunt was slightly dissatisfied with what she had done, but she was still very unconvinced.

"But he let your aunt lose the bet, wouldn't that make Qing Erye succeed? Anyway, I'm angry. ”

"So what? Does he dare to come?" Lord Mary spoke domineeringly, although she lost the bet, she was confident that she would not let Qing Er Ye take advantage.

"Also, can you please stop mentioning this messy name of his, you can call him whatever he says. His name is Qing Caesar, not Qing Erye. ”

It turns out that the real name of the extremely obscene Qing Er Ye is Qing Caesar, you know, there is only one family in the entire Epic Continent, and their surname is Caesar, that is, the royal family of the Holy Empire!

Obviously, the two men in the carriage had known about this for a long time, so Yulia smiled.

"Haha, the name of Second Master Qing is also very meaningful. Celebrating Grandpa, I successfully stole Queen Catherine of the Titan Empire bathing twice, Auntie, don't you think it's more interesting to call him that than to call him by his original name?"

Yulia learned the tone of Qing Erye's speech, and the more she spoke, the more she laughed, and she couldn't stop laughing, so that her good-looking big eyes narrowed into crescents.

"Really? He almost managed to sneak a peek at me. Marian glared at Julia, who was still snickering with her mouth covered.

Julia reacted instantly, and stopped snickering. "Then I won't laugh. ”

"You don't look like a noble lady at all. Mistress Mary said angrily.

"I don't want to be a noble lady, I want to be like your aunt. ”

Julia said a little coquettishly.

Mistress Mary touched Julia's head, she loved her very much. "Then you are sacrificing your reputation, have you forgotten that my aunt and I have never been taken advantage of by some bastard. ”

Suddenly, it occurred to Mistress Mary that her niece had never done this to any boy. She remembered that someone once said that when a girl treats a boy specially, that's the beginning of the fall.

So, she asked a little skeptically, "Do you like that Oss?"

Julia was a little embarrassed when she heard her aunt's sudden inquiry. "No, Auntie, I just think he's special, but I certainly don't like it. ”

"Actually, it's okay if you like it, my aunt will support you. ”

"No, absolutely not!"

Mistress Mary looked at her with suspicion, but the little girl firmly denied it.

Another drove out of the city.

Oss grabbed Second Master Qing, who wanted to jump out of the carriage, and said with a pleading face: "Second Master, Second Master." Give me a face, forget it today, and let's go to Master Mary next time to fulfill the bet. ”

"Why? I am willing to gamble and lose, as she said herself, if you don't take advantage of it, then I won't call Qing Erye." "Qing Erye has a stiff neck, and there is no room for compromise.

"Didn't you see that Mistress Mary was wearing a suit of armor and carrying a weapon today? This outfit is cheap, if you go, she won't have to fight with you. Oss argued with reason, he was really afraid that Second Master Qing would run to find trouble with Lord Mary, and in the end, it was not the gods who fought, and he, a mortal, would suffer.

Qing Erye thought for a while, and felt that what Oss said made sense, but the girl was not ambiguous at all.

"Okay, then I won't go today, I'll go tomorrow. ”

"Second Master, listen to me, Lord Mary must have taken precautions these days, you have to wait a little longer, at least two or three prayer months. ”

What is the difference between going there tomorrow and going today? After a while of persuasion, Ao persuaded the excited Second Master Qing to come down, and promised to go again after a while.

At this time, the little fat man on the side, Colin, asked lewdly: "Second master, I've heard you say for so long, have you really seen Lord Mary bathing?"

"Of course I've seen it, you don't know, that white, that big" Qing Er Ye said excitedly.

Oss and Colin looked at each other, not believing Qing Erye's boasting. If he had really seen it, how could he not drool when he described it at this moment.

As the carriage continued on, Oss saw a small figure on the side of the road through the translucent curtain.

The figure was so thin and ragged. She was dragging a cloth bag about the size of her body vigorously, leaning forward, only dragging a small distance at a time, it seemed that she had been walking for a long time, she was already thin, so every time she dragged the cloth bag a little distance, she had to rest before she could continue walking.

One word came to Oss in an instant, scavengers. He asked Colin a little strangely.

"There are scavengers in St. Caesar's City too?"

Colin nodded. "Yes, and a little more than the rest of the cities. Because the tenth pope, His Majesty St. Cekinos, the great, once said that there were no beggars in the holy city, there was no beggar in the city of St. Caesar since, but there were more scavengers. ”

Oh, the Pope is infallible.

Oss immediately told Ares to stop the carriage and walked down, coming to the little scavenger girl. asked in a greeting tone.

"What's your name? ”

The little girl was a little frightened when she saw Oss, who was wearing a white robe, which was so dazzling to her, she had never come into contact with such a "big man" of the Holy Sect so closely.

"God of Light, honorable lord, my name is Angelina. I...... I pick up all this stuff and don't want it from others, and I go to church every week to worship the God of Light. The little girl eagerly explained that she was afraid that the "big man" of the Holy Sect in front of her would arrest her as a thief.

Oss looked at the little girl's big bright eyes, a little frostbite and a little dirty hands, a little distressed, she looked like she was only seven or eight years old.

"Don't be afraid, little Angelina. My name is Os, and I'm a high priest, and I just see that you're working too hard to carry this sack, and I want to help you. The God of Light says that believers should help each other and love each other, and I am practicing the oracle of the God of Light. ”

The little girl, Angelina, understood, that the Daisho priest named Oss wanted to help her. She felt that she was usually frugal and used the saved copper coins to dedicate to the God of Light, which was really the right choice.

The little girl smiled, "Thank you, Daisuke-sama." But I can do it myself, these things are too dirty to stain your white cloaks. ”

Oss did it directly, forcibly took the cloth bag in the little girl's hand, carried it on her shoulder, and took her black little hand by the trend.

"It's okay, we are all believers in the God of Light, and we are all the same devout members, so you don't have to call me Lord, just call me Brother Oss. ”

The little girl withdrew her hand, but she couldn't break free. She felt that Oss ...... The big brother's hand is so warm, she feels so happy at this moment, and the smile on her face becomes sweeter and sweeter.

"By the way, where is your home? I'll send you back, who else is in your family?" Oss took the little girl by the hand and walked two steps before he remembered to ask her where her home was, and if she had any family.

"Yes, my grandmother is waiting for me at home. However, Oss ...... Big brother, my house is very small and dirty. The little girl lowered her head and was a little embarrassed.

Oss dragged her forward and whispered to her, "Angelina, as long as it is home, it is the best, safest, and warmest place in the world." ”

The little girl nodded vigorously.

After Oss sent the little girl to his house, he stayed at her house for a while, and when he left, he left all the fifty silver coins on his body to the little girl's elderly grandmother, and finally said to the little girl: "Angelina, I will come to your house again in the future, but next time if you still wear so little and so thin, I will not be happy." ”

After saying that, Oss touched the little girl's head.

The little girl smiled happily. "Okay, Brother Oss. ”

Getting back into the carriage, Colin said to him, "Os, it's not that you don't want to do good deeds, and I agree with what you just did, but I really can't help you." ”

Oss nodded.

"I knew, I saw it, I wanted to help, so I did it. Moreover, we, the aristocratic class, should give back to the lower class when we enjoy the huge dividends brought by the entire social hierarchy, otherwise we just blindly ask for it, and in the end it will only cause the collapse of the whole society. ”

Actually, there is another sentence that Oss has not spoken, and the same is true of the Holy Religion and the gods.

The carriage was far away, but the three people in the carriage did not notice that after they left, a man with a resentful look came from a long distance.

That night, in the slums of St. Caesar's City, a small shed caught fire and burned down, and the two scavengers inside, one old and one young, failed to escape.

Fate is unpredictable, historians have said it today.

The wheel of fate rolls forward and will crush everything in its path. The few little things that happened tonight are like a few pebbles, and while they are completely shattered, they will always slightly change the direction of the giant ship and lead the historical process to an unknown journey.
