22. Chapter 22

Holy See, Wenge Tsahan looked at the few people in front of him, "Where did Claire run to?" The priest below trembled, took two steps back, and let a priest who was one step slower to react to the front.

The priest looked to both sides, and his eyes flashed with complaints, "Lord Bishop, Lord Claire disappeared last night. After a pause, he continued, "I heard the reply last night when the waiter called Lord Claire for dinner, but Lord Claire did not show up during dinner. "And none of them dared to bother Claire.

"Do you know where he might go?" The bishop sat in his chair, looking a little tired. The priests below looked at each other, and one of them stepped forward and said, "I heard Lord Claire say two days ago that he seems to be going on a trip, but, but I thought to Lord Claire, he is not in good health, and he may not go out. None of the people present believed this, and only Claire ran out the most times in the entire church, but because he had a good relationship with His Royal Highness Eli, the second prince, everyone turned a blind eye to it, and even a little unfriendly.

"Traveling?" The bishop's beard turned up slightly, as if he had heard something funny, and then he looked at the pastor who had just spoken, "Pastor Ackerman, you should know that Claire is related to the fate of the holy beast, and when you heard him say that he was going to go on a trip, why didn't you tell me?" ”

By the end, the bishop's words were already a little angry, and his dark gray eyes were fixed on Kathy Ackerman, the child whom he had taken a good look at.

Casey's shoulders shrunk, he couldn't say that he wanted Claire to have some accident in the original non-existent travel incident, and he was not good at lying, so he could only be silent.

And his silence became a different meaning in the bishop's eyes, and the bishop's eyes narrowed, "If Claire leaves, the holy beast will also leave, which is not good for the Holy See, so no one can say anything about Claire's disappearance." Do you understand? As soon as these words came out, Casey hurriedly lowered his head to suppress the shock on his face, it turned out that this incident didn't happen but the bishop deliberately concealed it? But in the previous life, there was no existence of the holy beast, would the bishop still hide it?

"Understood, Bishop." The priests below bowed their heads one after another, but it didn't seem that Casey was bowing his head abruptly. After a moment of silence, the bishop got up and prepared to leave.

Kathy stepped forward, "Lord Bishop, allow me to take a team of therapists on a journey. He didn't want to ask for it now, because he hadn't broken through the level of the Great Magus yet, and it was still a little dangerous to go out now, but he could hear the dissatisfaction with him from the bishop's tone just now, and if the bishop knew that he had been in contact with Diyin several times, wouldn't he be even more suspicious. It's better to leave sooner.

"You're going on a trip too?" The bishop's suspicious look and tone made the surrounding priests retreat, they didn't know what this young man who had always been favored by the bishop had done. Casey pursed his lips, he was already seventeen years old when he entered the Holy See, and he cultivated in the Holy See under the pretext that his strength was still weak, and it didn't take long for the bishop to find out that he often went out to observe Sterling's movements, and in desperation, he had to tell his relationship with Steven.

The bishop understood the concerns of the young people, so he did not delve into it, not to mention that he had to use Casey to keep an eye on the movements of the royal family, which was also a reason to accept Casey's so-called entrusted care. But now, he found that some things were different from what Casey had said, such as Angelo's attitude, and that he had connived at Claire's departure to expose the bishop to the ambition of the man, and that he wanted to keep Casey's ambition under his control.

"Okay." Seeing that Casey was silent for a while, the bishop suddenly relented, so that the others breathed a sigh of relief, and sure enough, the bishop was still indulgent to this young man. Casey gratefully shook the Statue of Light on her chest and let out a sigh of relief, "Thank you, Bishop." ”

In the Abyss Forest, Angelo looked at the sky and gestured to Benedict, "Stop for a moment." The barrier flashed, and all the demonic beasts in the circle disappeared, and Benedict looked at Angelo and raised his eyebrows.

"Today I said I would go to Raphael's house to have a look." Angelo still had the strength to spare, his face remained unchanged, and it was obvious that the practice just now was just moving his muscles and bones. Benedict nodded, he already knew what it was that hurt Old Kent, but it was okay to accompany Angelo on a trip, "Then your practice today?" ”

Turning his neck, Angelo flashed a thought that he had thought about for a long time: "The last time I saw Teucer advance under the pressure of his father, I want to try it too." ”

"Strong-willed people can succeed." Benedict looked at this person who had been disconnected from the family in his previous life but still relied on his eldest brother to go back to see his father from time to time, and he was a child who had not grown up. "I thought that people who were adaptable should be able to do the same." Angelo's eyebrows rose slightly, this guy was saying in disguise that he was not strong-willed.

"Actually, you're strong-willed." Benedict chooses to be smooth, otherwise the little guy doesn't know if he will do anything to challenge his limits. "It's just that you have less obsession to become stronger." In other words, Angelo's eyes narrowed, is there a difference? However, I also determined that this method was not suitable for me.

"If one day, when you have to get stronger, you'll adapt to this method, but it's not me." Benedict whispered, Angelo pursed his lips, "Theoretically, I don't want that day. "Smile and look at the unnatural Benedict" Emotionally, I would love to have a day like this. ”

Laughter rang out, and the depths of the forest, which had been silent a moment ago, began to regain its vitality.

The Kent family, who had been prepared for Benedict and Angelo's arrival, did not seem to be flustered, and the newly restored old Kent also expressed understanding of the purpose of the two, although the invitation was originally a child's joke, but now it has become a valid reason.

"Your Highness Angelo, Your Excellency Benny." Old Kent sat down in his chair and motioned for the two to take their seats, as one of the old dukes, Anqi was his grandchildren. Benedict nodded, "It seems that His Excellency the Duke is doing well. ”

"Yes, Benny, your potion is very effective, our pharmacist has determined that you are of better quality, and now it seems that our pharmacist is still very credible." Old Kent looked at his bony hand and shook his head, "I'm not hurt by the potion, I know that very well. ”

The conversation went straight to the point, Angelo raised his eyebrows, sure enough, he couldn't expect these nobles to play tricks with him, at least these old nobles, they knew too well, and the only one who could play language arts with them was his father.

"Not a necromancer." Benedict stopped Old Kent's speculation, his finger lightly scribbled, and a magic array appeared in the air, the lines on it were not weird, but the black qi that had begun to gather since the formation of the magic array told the people present about the evil of this magic array.

"The Evil Spirit Circle, the foundation of the necromancer, I think you mistakenly touched the circle that has just been formed or has not completely dissipated, or rather, the necromancer has lost the ability to move after success and is powerless to destroy this circle." Benedict's face was relaxed, and he blinked at Angelo, and a meaning flashed in his eyes, I'm amazing.

Looking at Old Kent, who looked normal, Angelo sighed, "My father doesn't know about it, and the Holy See won't find out about it." Old Kent's somewhat parched lips opened and closed twice, "To be honest, I'd like to know more about how Pharmacist Benny knows." That means acknowledging it.

"We met the little necromancer shortly after you were injured, and to be honest, he wouldn't have done you such damage, especially such obvious evil spirit damage." Angelo chuckled and shook his head slightly, "As for Mr. Dick, Your Excellency can completely blame him for his extensive knowledge. ”

Standing up, Angelo wrapped his arms around Benedict's neck from behind, "By the way, I hope that when we get married, Your Excellency can be the officiant, after all, there are very few nobles of the older generation who are highly respected." Angelo's eyes were clear, and his eyes were full of smiles, and he couldn't tell at all that he was pinching the pigtails of an old nobleman.

Old Kent blinked, and Raphael's blue eyes flashed with depth and compromise. "Of course, my pleasure."

After figuring out what was going on, Angelo relieved himself and looked around, "Hasn't Raphael finished school yet?" "Anyway, he came here in time for the end of school.

"It should be soon." Old Kent waved his hand, "Let's have dinner together, after all, we haven't thanked Benny Pharmacist properly." ”

"Okay."

Back in the palace, Angelo rubbed his eyes and lay on Benedict's arms, "What is old Kent worried about?" It's not just the Holy See, if he lets the necromancer go, maybe the empire will be hurt. ”

"I saw that you understood it just now, why were you confused at this time?" Fingers playing with Angelo's long hair, Benedict soothed Angelo's spirit a little. The corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and the maintenance of the Kent family made him happy, which also proved that Angelo had been distracted by him.

"I'm smart, foolish." Angelo yawned unabashedly, his eyelids heavy and his breathing tinged with a thick sense of tiredness. "Don't you still have to analyze, don't ......" Before the words were finished, Angelo had already fallen asleep. Benedict continues to output divine powers: "Meditation is not a substitute for sleep, good night. My angel. ”

The work that had not been done last night was suspended above the two of them, and Benedict added a few words to the principle of the rules, and felt that something was wrong, so he crossed it out.

A little starlight appeared, the appearance of an oracle appeared in the void, and Benedict, who was thinking, raised his eyebrows and took the paper back, "What's the matter?" ”

"Wang, the reason for the loophole you asked to investigate last time, we have some clues." The oracle's face trembled a little, and Benedict smiled, "Continue." ”

"Our ability can't be found." After saying this, the oracle hurried to continue, as if his courage would soon run out: "When our consciousness penetrated the rules of this world, it was resisted. And the last time you changed the rules, you covered the loophole, which we can't even find. ”

Seeing that Benedict seemed to be angry, the virtual image of the divine envoy moved, and rushed into the mouth of Angelonunu, who was still sleeping. Benedict's momentum dispersed, "If you can't find it, check it slowly, and find me at any time if you have any difficulties." ”

Seeing the oracle nodding like a chisel of garlic, Benedict pursed his lips slightly, and waved his hand to disperse the illusion of the oracle. After the divine envoy dissipated, Benedict frowned, even the plane god could not resist the divine envoy, could it be that this continent was targeted by whom?

Recalling the situation he felt when he first went to the Abyssal Forest, Benedict pursed his lips and looked at the person in his arms, as if it was getting more and more troublesome. The corners of his mouth went up, and for the first time, he was expecting these troubles. After all, what makes him itch is a big trouble.

Early in the morning, Angelo blinked, "Good morning, why didn't you leave today?" "Usually when I wake up, Benedict has either disappeared or is about to disappear, and today looking at his posture, it seems that he has no intention of leaving.

Benedict didn't speak, rubbing Angelo's hair, "Someone came looking for me yesterday. Halfway through his words, Angelo knew what he was hiding when he saw Benedict's eyes, and the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, "How long will it take?" ”

The tone was resentful, as if Benedict often left, in fact, Benedict only left for half a day last time, Angelo's purple eyes narrowed slightly, his eyelashes trembled, and he interpreted a small pitiful image vividly. Benedict sighed, he had long known that the baby's acting skills were extraordinary, but who knew that after he really saw it, he realized that his previous understanding was still too shallow.

Obediently snuggling into Benedict's arms, Angelo yawned covertly, and then continued acting. The shoulders were shrunk, and the bones and muscles with excellent flexibility shrank Angelo's newly lengthened boy by two turns.

There was a touch from the tip of his nose, and Angelo couldn't help but break his skills. The corners of his mouth were raised widely, and his purple eyes blinked, "Who is the person who came yesterday?" The upper lip is slightly upturned, how can it be like the pitiful appearance just now. Benedict rubbed the tip of Angelo's nose, "It's the messenger of the Shrine." Sue me for some things they couldn't find out, and if they came to be lazy, they were trained back by me. ”

People who are really lazy will always speak righteously, Angelo's previous life and the teams of various countries have some cooperation, this proverb from not knowing where it appears in front of Angelo's eyes at this time. It's a pity that the person in front of him is not really lazy. With a slightly regretful sigh, Angelo glanced outside, "Richie is coming." ”
