"Prince...... Your Highness, I ...... My name is Shi Na...... Come from...... From Byron, he is the head bishop of the abbey of Hall...... I was sent. In order not to act at a loss, Shi Nai held a copy of "Nerves" in her hand to prevent others from noticing that her hands were a little trembling.

But being stared at by the prince named Rafa, she didn't dare to look directly into his gaze, and she was a little nervous, "First ...... The Archbishop...... Hope I ...... Can you ...... here. Here's the ...... of building a church Stronghold, hope...... Hope to get your support. ”

Stammered for a long time, Shi Nai couldn't figure out what she was talking about, she was really afraid that His Royal Highness the prince would treat her as a liar pretending to be a priest, then she would be wronged, she was the first in every priesthood exam when she was in the monastery.

Faced with the self-introduction of this beautiful little girl, Rafa had a preliminary understanding of her.

"Hmm......" After a moment of silence, Rafa finally spoke, "Your hair is black, and you are from the Southern Continent?"

When he saw a black-haired man for the first time in this world, he felt a little kind.

"Ah...... I...... My father is from the Southern Continent...... My mother is from the South. When it came to where she came from, Shi Nai was so nervous that she squeezed the holy book in her hand tightly.

The South Continent is located in the south of the Eastern Continent where the Aura Empire is located, and there is a vast ocean between the two continents, only in the southeast corner of the Eastern Continent, the two continents have a not wide junction, and that junction is called the Southern Boundary.

"Yes......" Rafa began to look at the top of her head, because the Southern Continent was where the orcs lived, and if her father was an orc, she might have hairy animal ears on the top of her head.

But he didn't notice anything unusual, except that her hair was black, and Tona was almost the same as Ola's ordinary girl, with a tall figure, fair skin, and bright eyes of sea blue.

"Ahem, Dear Miss Shina, I don't know how you came to Icefield City, as far as I know, there have been no caravans coming to Icefield City since the beginning of winter. Retracting his thoughts, he asked some more inconsequential questions.

"This ...... I...... I'm ...... from the city of Lela ...... walking."

"Walking?" Rafa was taken aback, he knew that Lela City was not close to Icefield City, but he didn't expect this little girl who looked a little restrained and thin to have such a tough side.

"Such a beautiful girl, I don't know how she got here safely. He smiled bitterly in his heart, he couldn't bear to say the words to drive her away.

After staring at the helpless Shi Nai for a while, Rafa finally returned to the topic, "Then, please show the priest token issued by the church for you, you know, you must have a priest token to confirm that you are a real priest." ”

"Ah......h

"What's wrong?"

"I ...... I...... My tokens are on the way...... Lost ......" Shi Nai then remembered that her token was still in the hands of the two knights who "escorted" her, and she didn't take it with her when she left.

"Oh, lost, sorry, Icefield City can't confirm your identity as a priest, so ...... You know, Icefield doesn't let you stay. ”

After some thought, Rafa decided to say that somewhat shocking sentence.

“......”

Hearing Rafa's answer, Shi Nai's eyes immediately filled with tears, "Your Royal Highness, please believe me, I am a real priest!" Perhaps for fear of being driven away, she stopped stammering, but became a little trembling and crying.

"I'm sorry, Miss Shina, I'm not embarrassed by you, but rules are rules, you can explain the situation to the church when you go back, and the church will definitely not embarrass you. ”

He had already found that Shi Nai's priestly clothes had been washed and a little white, and generally speaking, as long as he had been in the monastery, it was impossible to worry about his clothes; he did not question Shi Nai's priesthood, he could know through her eyes that she was not lying; but as a priest, she was not doing well, which only meant that her life in the monastery was not very good, and she was even oppressed or bullied.

"But I'm really a priest...... Tears finally couldn't help flowing, Shi Nai couldn't imagine that she could go there after leaving Icefield City, and return to Byron?

For a while, she stayed where she was, her hands and feet were a little weak, and her nose was sore, if it weren't for the last trace of strength in her heart to support her, she was really afraid that she would cry.

"Don't worry, Miss Senna, if you don't want to go back to Byron, I'll send you to the church's stronghold in another city, and I'll write a handwritten letter, and the priests there will surely understand you. Rafa didn't want to make a little girl cry, but for the sake of Icefield's future, he had to do it to the best of his ability.

"I'm not going!" Shi Nai blurted out almost on the spot.

She had chosen Byron's monastery because it was one of the few places in Aura where female clergy could be allowed, but it was such a women's monastery, but it turned out that the administrator was a man, and he was always rude to the girls inside.

Shi Nai couldn't imagine what would happen if she went to a place full of male priests.

"Please, Your Royal Highness, please take me in, I am really a priest," wiped away her tears, and Shi Nai continued to plead, "If you don't believe me...... Feel free to ask any question about the canon......"

As he spoke, Shi Nai seemed to suddenly remember something, opened the book in his hand like grasping a life-saving straw, pushed it in front of Rafa, and looked at Rafa with a pleading face.

"This ......" Rafa cared more about her already shabby hands than the torn book in front of her, and it seemed that she was really afraid that she would reject her again.

Seeing the girl's eyes wide open and staring at Rafa but the tears that flowed like a string, Audair also felt a little unbearable, maybe this little girl who came to Icefield City after not knowing how many hardships she had gone through really wanted to stay.

"I'm sorry. ”

Rafa closed the book and pushed it back in front of her, with a resolute expression.

At this moment, Sena suddenly felt as if she had been abandoned by the world, and the world changed from color to black and white.

“...... I'm sorry...... Excuse me. ”

Carrying his own patched baggage and picking up the yellowed torn book, Shi Nai forgot how she had left the City Lord's Mansion.

Standing in the crowd of people coming and going, she was a little lost.

She has always compared herself to a seed that has been in the dirt for a long time, but will one day sprout.

But now, she felt like she had frozen to death and had no chance to sprout.

Perhaps the decision to leave home was wrong, and even if you live an ordinary life, the traces of "divine punishment" will not necessarily be discovered.

But there was no turning back.

The vast expanse of wind and snow slapped on her face, and she suddenly felt that she was very similar to these snowflakes, they were all drifting with the wind, and they were about to melt when they stopped.

"Hey, Shina, how's it going?"

A large hand came out of nowhere, rubbing her head.

"Kyle...... Sister. Shi Na looked up suddenly, and it turned out that Kyle had been waiting for her at the door.

"Hmm, why are you crying?" Kyle reached out to wipe away her tears.

"Hmm......" felt the warmth of Kyle's big hand, Shi Nai's nose became sour again, she finally couldn't help it anymore, threw herself into Kyle's arms, and cried loudly, "Woo woo woo ......"

"Poor little girl. Kyle frowned as well, gently put his arms around her, and stroked her back, "Okay, okay, don't cry, don't cry." ”

hugged her for a while, and Shi Nai's crying finally stopped.

"What did Your Highness tell you, why did you cry like this?" Kyle cupped her face and wiped away tears for her again.

"Woo......"

While sobbing, Shi Nai told what had just happened.

"How could it be, Your Highness, he ......" Hearing Shi Nai's cry, Kyle unconsciously looked towards the door of the City Lord's Mansion, she felt that this matter was not like Rafa's style, he should have always been very tolerant.

"Sister Kyle, thank you......" Taking a deep breath, Tona stopped crying and tightened her somewhat tattered backpack.

"Forget it......" Kyle also sighed, not knowing how to comfort her for a while, Rafa didn't want her to stay, how could she, as a knight, betray her master's orders.

"Let's go eat first, and then we'll talk when we're full. ”

Kyle, who couldn't think of a way, couldn't help but take Shi Na's arm and walk towards the cafeteria in the face of the gradually growing wind and snow, "It's such a big snowstorm, you can't walk if you want to." ”

At the same time, Rafa stood under the eaves, watching the snow fall from the sky.

"That stupid girl, with such a big snow, she doesn't have to go, does she?"

"I've heard from Cole that Knight Captain Kyle has led her to dinner. Audrey also cared about the girl.

"Hehe, I didn't expect it to be a little girl, it's much easier to deal with. ”
