Chapter 49: On the eve of a thunderstorm

In the afternoon, no one realizes that a darkness is about to loom over the town.

The residents of the town, as usual, had just finished their afternoon meal.

Get out there for a walk.

Others are enjoying the cool breeze at their doorstep.

After all, staying in the house on such a stuffy afternoon is really an ordeal.

That's what Jonathan, the town's rich man, thinks.

Although he has a little money, he is not a tyrant to the point where he can use ice cubes to cool down like the lord in the city-state.

However, he couldn't be naked like those doglegs.

In that case, he's one of the best people in town.

So every time this happens, he takes a few of his family members to the church in the town.

What are you going to do? Of course, not to go to the cool. It's to pray, it's to worship the existence of the gods.

Originally, the church was on the ground, but when the old priest Merrill died. Leo, the little grandson he adopted, would definitely not be able to keep it. I want to do it myself, it's the best land in town.

But a few days ago, people from the Church of Light came here,

They left with blood on their bodies, and they left the church with the girls in it.

The townsfolk didn't know, how could he not know.

Especially when one of the girls inadvertently revealed the black scar on her arm.

It made Jonathan think of what he had seen when he was young.

That's what the Dark Order would engrave on their arms when they captured ordinary people in their secret places.

The thought that there might have been a stronghold of the Dark Order around the town made him shudder.

However, the town has never had its citizens go missing.

Maybe it's because of the presence of this old priest.

So thinking of this, Jonathan directly extinguished that thought.

Now he saw the smiling old priest.

Jonathan felt his fat body shivering, this old priest won't take revenge on me.

How it feels like he knows everything.

But I came to church every day so many days. It wasn't empty-handed that time, and the box had its own meaning.

That old Father Merrill should be able to save face, adults don't care about villains.

Test his tone today.

Jonathan decided, and he held his big belly. He brought his family to convey it in the church, trying to have a chance encounter with the old priest Merrill.

But, it's weird.

Jonathan had been around the church several times today, but he didn't see the old priest Merrill.

What's going on, Jonathan wants to ask those girls where the old priest is.

However, he was too embarrassed to ask. Well, actually, because those girls came out of the Dark Order, he was a little scared. That's why I didn't dare to ask.

Lan Ressa was lying on the grass behind the church with Roseanne and the others.

Anyway, Leo, this kid. It's been a miserable few days.

With Lorna's little report to the old priest Merrill every day, he is now living in dire straits, and he is being disciplined by the old priest every day.

Father Merrill didn't care much about it before, but now there is a contrast between them. The old priest Merrill was also interested in Leo's cultivation. Now Rhona is level 3, and Leo is only level 5.

I know how to play every day, and I don't know my heart at all. Such good conditions are not cherished, what will it look like in the future.

The old priest didn't do anything else now, just stared at Leo in the room. Watch him do the homework he has assigned. Leo is not allowed to come out to play.

Of course, they are not allowed to disturb their cultivation. Otherwise, the job is doubled.

Now even when eating, Leo is suffering from his own little face.

Now, grandpa doesn't love him anymore. Before, it was impossible for grandpa to be like this.

However, it is useless to cry.

Old Father Merrill was not at all afraid of him crying now.

Cry? You're crying.

Leo now thinks about not letting him know who gave his little report to Grandpa. No, no, or he would have made her ugly. Let her feel his own pain right now.

However, Leo simply couldn't think of it. Who beats her every day to report a little.

As for that, he offended his eldest sister, Rhona, that day. Leo had forgotten all about it. In addition, Rona often cares about him and asks him about his situation, and fights for him. Therefore, Leo did not doubt his eldest sister Rona at all.

So, I didn't see Leo for a while.

Lanrissa watched as the sun gradually dyed the blue sky orange.

Even though it was still very hot, I could still feel a light breeze while lying on the grass.

Moreover, Lan Ressa also felt some use for some of the blessings of that ancient water spirit.

For example, she can bring the element of water in the air to herself.

Then, as long as there is water in the air, you will feel a little cooler.

Of course, this cannot be done while doing Light Meditation. Otherwise, if your talent is not good, it will be more difficult to feel the holy light. If so, do it. Isn't that making things difficult for yourself?

It's just that suddenly the air is stuffy.

It's that feeling. It's as if something is pressing your heart very low. It's hot, and it gives people a feeling of irritability.

Lan Ruisha and Luo Shan hurriedly got up.

It's going to be the rhythm of a thunderstorm.

Although, the days in the town are good most of the time. However, this thunderstorm also came as soon as it was said.

Many of the townspeople who were resting in the church saw the weather and hurried home.

Jonathan wanted to too, but he really couldn't go fast. Rather than getting his precious clothes wet in the middle of the rain, Jonathan prefers to wait in church for the rain to pass. After all, this summer's rain comes and goes quickly.

Soon the wind blew, and the plane trees in the church rattled.

There was also an unbearable sound from the windows.

Lanressa and Roseanne hurriedly closed the open windows in front of them.

The clouds soon gathered.

The wind was blowing indiscriminately, trying to tear apart the dullness of the air.

When the windows were closed, the chapel suddenly became dark.

Jonathan wasn't inside, but stood outside with his family.

Lan Ruisha and Luo Shan closed the window and checked it to see that there was no problem. And he closed the door of the chapel and stood out.

But the old priest Merrill always had a feeling of distraction, as if something was going to happen.

He looked out the window, feeling like it was stormy.

Is it really me worrying?

Darkness looms over the town.

A heavy rain is coming.
