Chapter 9: Chongxi
Riding in the carriage again made Yae Ji a little unaccustomed, and in the world of giants, he was used to the sound of steam locomotives "tutu tu tu
For some reason, Arthur dragged him in the same carriage, and Yae Sakura and Karen rode in the second.
At this time, Arthur's sad and joyless eyes kept on him, which made Yaeji feel his scalp tingle.
It's terrifying that an old man who has long been bald stares at you with such eyes.
Yae Ji leaned back on the cushion behind him, and found that Arthur was not going to let him go......
"I admit that it was my fault that day, I shouldn't have taken Karin out sneaking out, but I really have truly repented......"
"What did you say?" Arthur, who came back to his senses, asked.
Yaeji: "......"
"Ahem~" Arthur was embarrassed, he was actually in a daze just now, and he really didn't hear what the pink-haired boy was saying.
"I heard from the eldest lady, are you going to the Isis District to find His Highness Ned?"
"Hmm." Yae Ji said honestly, "I'm going to apply for a qualification from him as a patrol priest. ”
"You're going to the military district?" Arthur frowned, and then soothed, "It's not bad to go and see your former teammates, the big beast tide has just ended, and there is no danger in going there." ”
Yae Ji nodded, but in his heart he was expecting danger, hoping to encounter the kind of danger that would push his human body into a desperate situation.
Only in this way can the supermetamorphic factors in the body have a chance to be released.
When he becomes a fusion warrior and then takes the Heavenly Fire Divine Judge from the Kaslana family, his combat power should be comparable to that of the legendary S-class Valkyrie.
Arthur probed, "Your ...... My sister once told me that a warrior who could harness the power of frost would soon appear, and that he would become the new master of the Heavenly Fire Saint. ”
Arthur said as he observed Yaeji's expression, as if he wanted to see some clues from it, but unfortunately, the expression on Yaeji's face was just the right amount of surprise.
"Really? I really look forward to the next warrior at the helm of the Heavenly Fire Holy Judgment to be as good as Uncle Francis. ”
Speaking of Francis, the god of war, there was silence between the two again.
Yae Ji was still very cautious in this matter, he couldn't say anything like "I'm the next one to control the power of frost, hurry up and hand over the Heavenly Fire Divine Judgment to me".
Arthur also learned from Yaeji and leaned back, this relaxed posture was really quite rare for Arthur.
"Is there a rush over there?"
Arthur's words, so that Yaeji can't understand, what does it mean?
"It's okay, it's not in a hurry."
"Then stay in the Isis district for a few more days, and after the family has discussed, a funeral may be held for the owner." Arthur paused, raised his head and stared into Yaeji's eyes, "You can't leave the eldest lady there alone, right?" ”
"I've heard that Uncle Francis is in danger of resurrection!" Yae Ji frowned and said, "Isn't it a little inappropriate to hold a funeral?" ”
"The buried things are old things from the past, the scale is not large, and the two families of the Mandate of Heaven have come. As for the owner's body...... It will still be stored according to the words of the One, and we look forward to the day when we will be resurrected. Arthur was silent for two seconds, then added, "It's just a possibility, it's not sure yet." ”
"Okay, I'll wait for news in Iss."
Hearing Yaeji's promise, Arthur's old face showed a smile of relief, and he hit the railroad while it was hot: "This time I will try to persuade the family to get engaged to ......"
"Don't, don't!" Yae Ji hurriedly snapped up, "It's too inappropriate to say this at a meeting to discuss Uncle Francis's funeral." ”
"What's inappropriate, the master's soul is watching from the side."
Arthur's smile was reflected on the retina, and Yaeji shuddered, he still couldn't understand the thinking of these people.
Is this the legendary "Oki"?
......
Manifest Destiny Holy See Headquarters Area - Isis.
Arthur had been sending the Yae siblings to Ned's manor.
After saying goodbye to the two siblings, the convoy headed for the old house of the Kaslana family.
It's not far or close to the Cathedral of Destiny.
Yae Ji took her sister's hand and looked out at the cathedral in the distance.
The cathedral is one of the best quality buildings in the entire Mandate of Heaven region, and even if it is knocked down by a chariot-class Honkai Beast, it doesn't look like a big deal.
Many buildings in the Iss Sector have been crushed by chariot-class Honkai Beasts, with the exception of Ned's Manor.
There were still two guards at the door, and the older one knew who was coming after seeing Yaeji's rather special pink hair.
Before Yae Ji could speak, the guard had a smile on his face, "My lord, are you here to find Your Highness?" ”
"Well, go talk to Ned."
"Ouch~" The old guard glanced at the young guard, and hurriedly took the salute from Yae Ji's hand.
"Your Highness has instructed that as long as the adults and young ladies come back, they can enter the manor at any time. The old room was cleaned every day, so I kept it for adults. ”
Yaeji smiled, took her sister's hand, and walked towards the courtyard with her feet raised.
The guard carried the small bags of the two people, one step behind the two people, "Your Highness is next door, ...... in a while"
"I'll go find him later."
As soon as Yae Ji finished speaking, the small wooden door connecting the manor was pushed open, and Ned's laughter followed.
"Ah Ji, you won't tell me in advance when you come back!"
The old guard quickly placed his things and walked away briskly with the young guard beside Ned.
"Isn't it too late?" Yaju Ji followed with a smile: "Last time, I rubbed the car of the military region, and this time I got Kalian's car, and I didn't have time to notify it." ”
Ned approached, his emerald green eyes lit up, "Miss Sakura is here too?" ”
Yae Sakura nodded her little head at Ned, then flashed behind her brother.
"Where's Rin-san? Didn't come with you? ”
"Rin still has to help me manage Siti, so I'm not available for the time being." Yae replied and patted Sakura on the shoulder.
Yae Sakura understood and walked towards the house.
After seeing Sakura leave, Ned also let go, walked over and put his arm around Yaeji, "Let's go, let's go have a drink today, and I'll tell you about the Holy See by the way." ”
"Matters of the Holy See?" Yaeji looked interested, "What are the specifics?" ”
"The old man wants to move the capital, saying that when he settles down, he will move his headquarters to Italy or Austria."
Yaeji's eyes lit up slightly, and he could analyze a lot of things from Ned's words alone.
Just as Yae Ji was about to ask something, Ned suddenly lowered his head and sniffed at his clothes.
"Did you wear perfume? What style, it smells good, but it's too feminine. ”
Yaeji's face darkened.
After saying this, Ned felt uncomfortable.
Removing his arm from Yaeji's shoulder, Ned took another half step back.
muttered: "I think if we go out like this, people will misunderstand......
