The Conflict Between Light and Darkness (11)

Leon, as if reading what she was thinking, saw that Arturi had already got into the carriage, and he squeezed his eyes at Lily, and smiled gently:

"Is Miss Roman worried about something? Your Excellency has invited Miss Roman to the Aturi Clan's manor for a temporary visit, and I will inform your Guardian Knight to pick you up at the manor, just as yesterday. Lily nodded and climbed into the carriage, where Leon thoughtfully closed the door, leaving only Arturi and Lily in the carriage, but fortunately there was a table in between.

As soon as he got into the car, he had already taken off his coat and hung it in the carriage, wearing only a white shirt, perhaps because the collar button was too tight, and he even unbuttoned it twice, revealing a beautiful collarbone. He slumped over the couch, playing with the silver chain encrusted with purple crystals that had been placed on the table yesterday, dangling from his palms. He stared sideways at Lily, a few strands of pale blonde hair hanging down on his fair face, making him look different from the serious and somewhat untouchable appearance he had before.

"Ma'am, I'm not a cannibal." He smiled and said exactly the same thing as yesterday, but Lily remembered that after he had said this, he had inadvertently said two things to himself yesterday, and the more gently he said that he did not eat people, the more wary Lily was of him.

"The Temple of Light is said to have a Light Festival this year, and I heard that the Temple has released a message that whoever finds the Light Scepter will become the new Pope of the Temple as long as he hands it over at the Light Festival." When Arturi saw Lily's vigilant look, he didn't care. He casually lifted the amethyst he was playing with in his hand, blocking one eye, and the other eye was closed, the originally light blue eyes could not see the look in his eyes clearly through the amethyst, but Lily's actions were all taken into his eyes.

"The archbishops of the temple seem to have taken refuge in a lot of forces for this, and you don't seem to be nervous." Arturi removed the crystal, the purple crystal was especially beautiful in his slender and white palm, and his movements inevitably drew attention to his hand, the knecks were slender. And the nails are beautifully trimmed. When you hold the crystal, you can feel the power contained in it from his movements.

After suffering his loss yesterday, Lily suddenly became serious when she heard his question, and she thought about it for a long time. Cai shook his head:

"These things. Adults should consult with the archbishops. ”

Arturi didn't have to say anything pretentious. He was only half-lying there, but it was impossible to ignore his existence, and Lily's back was straight. Arturi smiled at her answer:

"The Aturi family doesn't need to be involved in the affairs of the temple, but the lady is also one of the candidate saints, if there is no new pope at this year's Light Festival, then who is the saint is particularly important."

The Rite of Light is a festival held every ten years in the Temple of Light, when the Pope of Light died during a battle with the Temple of Light many years ago, and the Scepter of Light disappeared at the same time.

The scepter represents the identity of the pope, it can be said that it is a holy object in the temple, it is said that the scepter of light is not just a good-looking mascot, the scepter is said to have been blessed by the goddess of light, and the scepter has a gem that can assist in the cultivation of the holy book of light, and the person who gets the scepter will be far more powerful than ordinary people in practicing the holy book of light.

It is precisely because of the assistance of this thing that the successive popes can really sit in the position of the master of the Temple of Light.

After all, no matter how virtuous and respectable a person is, if he does not have the strength to match it, a qiē is just empty talk. It's a pity that this scepter has disappeared long before the death of the previous pope, and after the scepter disappeared, the people of the Temple of Light have never given up on this scepter, and have been trying their best to find it, but it is a pity that after a few years, they have not been able to get the whereabouts of the scepter.

Indeed, someone in the temple once said that whoever finds the scepter is very likely to become a candidate for the Pope of Light, and for this reason, several archbishops have also sent people to look for it, but the original owner used to practice wholeheartedly, and he didn't care too much about it, Lily didn't expect that Arturi would talk to her about such a strict thing at this time, and frowned for a while, not knowing what he meant by this.

The Roman couple really wanted her to become a saint, after all, although there is only a two-word gap between the candidate saint and the saint, if the candidate saint does not have the appearance of the saint, it is just that, once the saint is singled out, then the rest of the candidate saints will naturally be deprived of the saint's qualifications and become one of the saint's slaves.

Although it is not a matter of whether the slave is a slave or not, but for the temple with obvious status and status, the status of a slave may not be too easy, and it is very likely that if the Roman family knows that she has no hope of fighting, it may force her to quit the temple and arrange for her to marry.

She has entered the mission for a shorter time, the force value is not high, and the original owner is not good at cultivating martial arts, not to mention a golden knight like Brian, even if she cultivates for another two months, she may not be the opponent of a silver-level knight.

Unless you can escape from the imperial capital, find a place to hide, and spend a few years practicing martial arts first, but the Light Festival is half a year later, and she has not found a clue in the first place for this mission, and it is not easy to find this Anna, if she leaves the imperial capital like this, even if she has the strength, but she gives up the task, so the gains outweigh the losses.

Running is definitely not going to be able to run, and the most important thing is that the original owner also has a yearning for becoming an official saint, so after the identity of this saint Lily is now estimated, she feels that she doesn't have a big chance of winning, but she still wants to fight.

If she can really become a saint, the Roman family will not dare to come up with any new tricks, and then she will become a saint, and the romans will definitely not be able to do it again if they treat it as a chess piece in the plot, she will not be at the mercy of the romans, and at the same time she will not be forced to marry, which is a good thing to kill two birds with one stone.

Arturi asked about the Holy Maiden at this time, and Lily's heart moved: "I don't really care about the matter between adults, who is the next pope, the goddess of light will naturally have her will." When Lily said this, he remembered that Arturi knew that the main reason for this year's Light Festival was to select the Pope, and he knew the embarrassing scene of the Temple now, but yesterday he mentioned that he would let him say hello to the Pope on his behalf.

Although he said that he didn't need to threaten people with such means, Lily was still unhappy when she thought about it at this time, she didn't know the purpose of Arturi talking to her about these words today, this person's mind was complicated and difficult to understand, and there were several meanings in one sentence, and she didn't really want to deal with such a person.

Hearing her words, Arturi closed his eyes and said with a lazy expression:

"It's time to pay attention, this time the emperor invited me to the imperial capital, just so that I can enjoy this good show."

Lily was stunned for a moment and couldn't help asking, "What do you mean?" ”

"Ma'am." He furrowed his brows in some embarrassment, and when he opened his eyes, he stared at Lily with a somewhat lazy and slightly regretful look in his eyes: "The meaning is obvious, I will return to Arturi in a month, and the light festival will be held in a month in half a year, don't you, as a candidate saint in the temple, know about it?" ”

His words were like a bomb, thrown in Lily's ear, the original owner of the plot really didn't know anything about it, and he didn't know about it at all in his memory, and Lily didn't receive it at all later in the plot, and when she heard the news at this time, her face suddenly became a little ugly.

If the light festival will really be held within a month, then it proves that some people in the temple have firmly covered the news at this time, either the original owner was excluded from this incident because he had no backers and no dependent forces, or who is the saint in the temple, I am afraid that there is already an arrangement in her heart, she still wanted to fight for the position of the saint before, and now it seems that I am afraid that the position of the saint has already been decided, and all the big people know it in their hearts, Only these little people are still fighting for that impossible position.

A sense of loss suddenly welled up in her heart, and Lily held back the discomfort in her heart, but faintly felt that the advance of this light festival was very likely to be one of the reasons for the original owner's unfulfilled wish.

"I really don't know about this, but I really want to thank you for your advice." This feeling of the unknown task is not good, a qiē can only rely on his own cocoon to find, and the direction is not necessarily correct, even if the lily is calm, at this time it can't help but feel a little troublesome, Arturi is now telling her these things, even if she knows, there is nothing to do, the time is too urgent, she has no strength, and there is no one available around her, Lily is like a butterfly that has fallen into a spider's web, even if she struggles desperately, it is just that the blind spider silk is getting tighter and tighter, It is estimated that the original owner has also experienced this qiē, but the situation of the original owner should be worse, because she must not have prepared in the slightest in advance for the light sacrifice, and something must have happened in the middle of this to lead to the occurrence of this mission.

Arturi leaned in the carriage, admiring her calm appearance, a flash of light flashed in his eyes, he suddenly sat up straight, his upper body leaned towards Lily, his approach made Lily want to stand up on the table all of a sudden, but he quickly reached out and pressed the back of her hand, this time it really touched the temperature of his skin, he turned Lily's palm over, and handed the amethyst that he was playing with in his hand to her, The slender silver chain on the crystal was still wrapped around his slender fingertips, he didn't let go, but grabbed Lily's hand, let her hold the crystal in the palm of his hand, when Lily wanted to struggle, he pulled the chain in his hand, and her fingertips were also entangled in the chain at some point.
