97. Self-reliant knight
For Lynn. For Elaine, being transferred to Aldrich this time was the most difficult task of her career, after all, her opponent this time was the mysterious and famous witch sage.
As for the legend of Cynthia, Lynn grew up, when she was just a child, and was still a knight's apprentice in the training camp of the church, this witch made a horrific world of empire collapse, and in the years since, the news about Cynthia, the witch of calamity, has been on the title of the mysterious daily newspaper twice in three days.
It's no exaggeration to say that Lynn grew up listening to Cynthia's legends, and now, she's going to face the legendary witch head-on.
To say not to be nervous is certainly a lie.
Although Lin has always been very confident in her strength, but self-confidence does not mean expansion, her talent that has always been praised by people is at most a genius, and in fact, Cynthia, who is only three or four years older than her but can already sit firmly in the position of a sage, has entered the level of demon and pervert.
She herself is now just a leader of the younger generation and a big man in the future, but Cynthia has become a real senior master, and has successfully reached the top level of the world.
She's become a real big shot.
The two people who are obviously almost the same age should be of the same generation, but now the generation has been pulled apart.
But now, Lynn's task is to contain the terrible witch, to be honest, she has no idea whether she can complete this task, but she can't refuse, because she is indeed the most suitable person in the church to take over this task.
The identity is high enough, and the background is hard enough, even the Calamity Witch will not dare to attack her easily.
That's why the church hierarchy chose her to carry out this task.
This reason is naturally very annoying for Lin herself, she trains so hard, works hard to carry out tasks, and tries hard to show herself in front of everyone, all in order to prove her own ability to others.
What she wants is that the first thing that comes to mind when people mention her is her abilities, not her background.
She has a name, and it's called Lynn. Elaine, not the daughter of the presiding judge, the disciple of the Holy Maiden or something.
Therefore, after graduating from the Church's training camp, she did not choose to go to her father's Inquisition, nor to her mother's Dreadnought Vanguard, and she also refused the invitation of the Holy Lady to join the Red Lotus Monastery, and resolutely ran away to the Knights Templar, who were unfamiliar with her life.
She finally gained a firm foothold in the Knights Templar, from being ridiculed as the eldest lady in the greenhouse at the beginning, to gradually gaining the recognition of her teammates, and then to successfully becoming the deputy head of the Knights, she finally achieved certain achievements and gained a certain recognition with her own ability.
But at this time, the high-level suddenly came down with a task book, directly cut the position of deputy head she had obtained with great difficulty, and asked her to leave the Templar Order, which she had already made home, and sent her to a school as a professor, responsible for containing an extremely dangerous witch.
As a devout believer, Lin naturally has no complaints about the tasks assigned by the church, as a Templar, it is her duty to obey orders and obey commands, and she is happy to accept the task, but this is only if the church chooses her based on her ability, not her identity.
And does her ability matter in this mission?
She was a Templar, a standard military attaché, and fighting evil was what she was supposed to do, and it was clearly the job of a civil servant to teach students theology courses, preach to students, and proclaim the glory of the Lord.
If you want to preach you, go to the missionaries of the Ministry of the Faith, what are you doing with me, a knight of the Knights?
Although she was a disciple of the Holy Maiden, and she herself was indeed a devout believer, she was a qualified nun under the main profession of the Templars, and although her understanding of theology was not comparable to that of the missionaries of the Congregation of the Faith, it was more than enough to teach the students.
But even so, she still hated the decision of the church leaders to choose her to carry out the mission just because of her identity, and those old stubborns didn't care if she had the ability or not, in fact, they just threw her over as a mascot, which was just to show the church's attitude towards the witch sage, and they didn't expect her to really compete with that witch at all.
This made Lynn very unconvinced.
You look down on me so much, then I have to make a career to show you, so that you must admit my ability.
This is what Lin thought in her heart when she came up along the way, and it can be regarded as a gambling rebellious psychology.
It's just that although she has made up her mind all the way, when she really arrived at Aldrich Academy, she was a little cowardly.
Again, she is a knight who is good at fighting, and this task of playing with power and means is really not suitable for her, even if she has a part-time job as a nun, and it is not a problem to teach theology classes to students, but how can she contain that dangerous witch? I heard that although Cynthia, a witch, is powerful, she prefers to make some tricks, and she is a good person who only knows how to play conspiracy with a knight who is positive.
If this is overshadowed by that witch, and then the gray mission fails and leaves, how embarrassing it is, and wouldn't that make it seem that she is really incapable, so people will treat her even more like a vase who only relies on the background and has no real skills.
Therefore, Lynn's mood was extremely uneasy.
Fortunately, she hadn't seen Cynthia's witch yet, which made Lin a little nervous and a little happy.
It's just that when the old principal on the stage introduced the new teacher to the teachers and students of the school at the opening ceremony, Lin unexpectedly heard another name besides her.
Merlin. Grace, Sarina?
Grace. This is not an ordinary surname, and as Lynn naturally knows the meaning behind this surname, this is the royal surname of the elves, and it is also the surname of the terrifying Calamity Witch.
Who is this so-called Professor Merlin of the Department of History? Elven royalty? What does he have to do with Cynthia's Calamity?
This suddenly made Lin more vigilant.
The elven clan has long been a vassal of the witch Cynthia, and the elven royal family named Merlin is probably the witch's cronies, so it's okay, before directly facing the boss of Cynthia, let her come and meet the witch's minions for a while.
The knightly nun took two deep breaths from the audience, and then adjusted her mentality and stepped onto the podium, she wanted to see what this Professor Merlin was capable of.
Then, Lynn saw the teenager who walked on stage with her.
"Uh, shouldn't it be an elf? How is it a human being? ”
When she saw the little human boy, this question popped up in Lyn's mind.
She was sure that Professor Merlin didn't disguise himself with any illusion or other sorcery, and that the human boy was what he was, and as a former deputy head of the Templar Order, she still had this eyesight.
But why does a human have the surname of an elven royal family? Metis? But the ears aren't pointy, huh? Could it be the kind of waste wood hybrid that hasn't inherited any elven characteristics?
The nun's mind was different and risky with question marks.
And when the boy walked in, Lynn saw his face perfectly.
"Shhhh He's good-looking. ”
Looking directly at that incomparably handsome face, she gasped and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
However, she quickly came to her senses and steadied herself, as if she were facing a great enemy.
"My knight's heart is still not firm enough, I will be fascinated by simple appearance, no, no, it is not simply handsome to grow like this, this is already a natural ability to charm."
"This teenager is not to be taken lightly."
The knight nun was judging in her heart.
