Lily sneered, no longer pretending to be well-behaved and weak before, and her voice went cold:

"Your Excellency, you should be restrained, a true aristocratic gentleman should not be reluctant to women. I don't have much interest in Anna, and I don't want to know what the adults say is useful......" Before she could finish her sentence, Arturi laughed, "I have exercised great restraint, otherwise you should not have just stood here at this moment, ma'am." If you're not interested in Anna, what about the Festival of Light in half a month? Andrew told me that he was going to give you a mission to complete, and believe me, you would die there without my company. ”

When he had said this, he stretched out his hand and let the lily go.

I don't know if he hugged it too tightly just now, but as soon as he let go, the night wind blew, and Lily shivered subconsciously, he watched coldly, and finally pulled Lily into his arms.

"A true gentleman shouldn't take off his coat and give it to me to put on, right, my lord?"

"A truly wise gentleman does not take off his coat and give it to a lady at this moment, for the gentleman's body is far warmer than his clothes." Both of them consciously stopped mentioning what had just happened, and when Leon came with the carriage, he happened to see Lily staring up at Arturi, and his usually cold and reserved adult showed a rare smile.

Lily did not return to the temple in the end, but followed Arturi into the carriage, and the ball in the royal garden was a long way from the temple, and Archbishop Andrew himself left and threw her down, while the Romans were still partying in the castle. As if he didn't want to leave, Arturi looked reserved and polite, but in fact his attitude was tough, and he didn't allow her to refuse and helped her into the carriage, but he was very restrained and did not do anything too radical to make Lily unbearable.

Leon didn't prepare an extra room for Lily, and she washed up and stayed in Arturi's room. There were no lady's clothes here, she was dressed in Arturi's dressing gown, a wide black velvet dressing gown that she wore almost to the ground, and she tied it around her waist with a strap. In addition to the bed. There was a long sofa chair in front of the window, and the room was so clean and simple that there was no other decoration, just like the feeling that Arturi gave him, and the whole room was full of his personal character. It looks very deserted.

"Andrew wants you to join the tryouts." Arturi, who had taken a shower, came out of the bathroom in a bathrobe. A head of hair that was originally pale blonde after being wet. The color was darker, and as he walked, a pair of slender legs loomed in his dressing gown, and a large part of his chest peeked out of the placket. Lily glanced at it, then turned her face away, and when she heard what he said, she turned her head again:

"What trial?" Lily didn't know about it before, and Andrew hadn't even mentioned it to her in the carriage when he came and when he had just left, and she vaguely felt that something was not quite right, and Arturi had a meaningful look on his face when he heard her question.

In the dim light, he sat down on the sofa a little lazily, the look in his eyes was not clear, Lily only felt that he was looking herself up and down, she subconsciously grasped the hem of her skirt tighter, and heard Arturi's voice ringing:

"A trial of the Holy Maiden, and because of the time constraints, you will have to set out in a few days."

Andrew hadn't told Lily about it, and her brow furrowed, "I haven't heard the archbishop talk about it. ”

"How could he tell you such an important matter without me agreeing to cooperate with him?" When Arturi heard Lily's words, he raised the corners of his mouth, and the undried water in his hair slid down his face, an image that did not look like he had looked before. Lily knew that Andrew was not as gentle and kind as he appeared on the surface, but when she heard Arturi say things so bluntly, she fell silent.

"Why?" After a long while, she spoke, Arturi looked away from her, looked out the window, under the starry sky Arturi family's manor hidden in the night, the rolling mountains and fruit bushes in the distance, as if into the landscape of the painting, his half-white side face almost glowed with white jade in the light, his eyes were like blue glass, there was no half of temperature, the eyelashes were long and straight, his lips were raised, and there was a kind of contempt and indifference in his expression, as if he was watching a group of clowns acting, It gives people a sense of indifference and alienation that is out of place and difficult to get close to.

"You know the advance of the Light Festival." When Arturi said this, he didn't look back: "The specific reason is stinky and long, and I'm sure Andrew has already talked to you." This so-called Holy Maiden trial is because Andrew said that the temple found the Scepter of Light. ”

When Arturi said the last few words, the smile on the corner of his mouth seemed to be deeper, but the next moment his faint smile was restrained by him, he turned his head, and when Lily heard the words 'Scepter of Light', her heart had already begun to jump, she instinctively felt that there was something wrong with Arturi's expression just now, but what was wrong, she couldn't say.

She didn't like the feeling that this mission had to rely on groping everywhere, but she couldn't touch it to the end, but she couldn't resist this mission, which inevitably made her eyes a little annoyed.

"You see, ma'am, in fact I invited you to my house, but Andrew wanted me to tell you about it." After Arturi finished speaking, he paused: "After the temple is ready for two days, I will send people out, and this trip to find the scepter of light will be regarded as the practice of the Holy Maiden." If you find the Scepter of Light, you will naturally make a great achievement, and you will become the core and top person of the temple when you come back, and those who can't go will naturally be eliminated, if Andrew can tie you to his ship, then this trial, do you want to go? ”

Anna's business is not over, the scepter of light, which has disappeared for many years, reappears, and Andrew, the old fox, will hide such important news, Lily is cursed in her heart, she is now on fire, only blame her for the short time she entered the mission, and the time in ten days is simply not enough for her to react, she did not enter the core of the temple, she does not know many things, so that now she temporarily knows these things from Arturi's mouth, and it seems that she is particularly passive.

If she refuses Andrew's request, then it is conceivable that she will not be able to stay in the temple in the future, and when she still has no strength, she will inevitably be suppressed. And I can't stay in the temple, the name of this bright saintess, Lily wants to get, after all, this is also the existence that the original owner in the plot has longed to envy, without knowing what the original owner's wish is, she can only cast a wide net as much as possible, even if the original owner's wish is not necessarily to become a saint, she will try to stay in the temple, because the biggest possible target of this mission should be Anna, she wants to keep an eye on Anna, and she can't leave this place.

But obviously it is not so easy to stay in the temple, Lily currently seems that this so-called trial she must have to go for the task, but the appearance of a treasure like the Scepter of Light, there will definitely be a lot of people vying for it, this road has a high chance, and it is also dangerous.

Although there is a knight Brian who is not weak by her side, but after everything she saw before, Brian will not do anything to calculate her life, not to mention asking him to protect herself at a dangerous moment, Arturi himself told himself about it, Lily turned his head to look at him, and said tentatively:

"So, my lord, if I want to go, will you help me?" People like Arturi don't like so many things, he has already opened his mouth to talk about the trial at this time, and talked about the cooperation with Andrew, so there must be some agreement between him and Andrew, maybe he was ready to send someone to follow him.

As soon as Lily said this, Arturi's eyelids drooped, and a few strands of wet hair were pressed to his forehead: "If I am willing to help you, ma'am, what price are you willing to pay?" ”

He was speechless and speechless for a long time.

"So what price do you want me to pay?"

"When this is done, leave the temple and leave Norre with me, the family of Arturi needs a Grand Duchess, ma'am." He said, "If it doesn't matter, why should I help you?" If you are mine, then I am naturally your faithful knight, and I will personally accompany you on this trial trip. ”

It wasn't until early the next morning, when the carriage of the Aturi family was sent away from the beautiful manor, that Lily's mind still echoed what Arturi had said, that the proposal that should have been enthusiastic was said by him in his own personal style, and the slightly raised eyebrows when he spoke, and the condescending eyes matched with his reserved and cold tone at that moment, as if they were still vivid, and the matter suddenly fell into a ridiculous whirlpool.

In order to become a saint, in order to complete the task, Lily must go to the trial of the saint, but if she wants to complete the trial, she needs Arturi's help, and the price that Arturi asks her to pay is to leave the temple and leave the capital of Noray with him.

Lily will sneer when she thinks of this kind of thing, Arturi is a cunning man, he is as treacherous as a fox, he threw the dilemma to himself, he turned his head and left, and said that it was to give Lily space to think, but unfortunately he left, Lily didn't sleep well last night, and his face was still a little bad when he returned to the temple.

She pushed open the door to her room, and Brian, who was not wearing knight's armor, sat in her room, not knowing what he was thinking, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. (To be continued......)
