Chapter Forty-Eight: Taking Office (Two in One)
Francis sat down for lunch and left, taking four or five rice balls by the way, Sakura was quite happy, but Karen was a little dissatisfied.
Arthur, who had been mysterious, wearing a black robe and a raven mask all day, remained.
It was already clear that Karen was also going to live in the Siti district, and Arthur became the eldest lady's personal butler.
Yaeki was looking forward to meeting Ned next time, and didn't know what the expression on his face would be when he heard the news.
It didn't take long for the gossip about the marriage between the eldest lady of the Kaslana family and Yaeki to spread throughout the Isis district.
As for the source, frankly Yae Ji doesn't know.
He is now sandwiched between the Apokalis family and the Kaslana family, with the protection of Karen and the ambiguous attitude of Apokalis, Yaeji is still very sure of the position of the envoy of the Siti district.
Now most of the Holy See's energy is focused on the game between the beast tide and other countries, and he is such a "trivial matter......
Two more days passed.
Arthur routinely recuses himself every morning because Yaeki has to teach the eldest lady and her friends that he doesn't think it's appropriate for him to be there.
His senses for Yae Ji have changed a lot in the past few days, and the only regret is that the other party is not a child of the Kaslana family.
After two days of observation, Arthur was surprised that in addition to the last sister in the Yae family, Yae Ji and Yae Sakura both had invincible combat abilities of the same age.
You must know that even the lord who is called the 'God of War of Destiny' has not been able to behave so rebelliously at this age.
Yae Rin, who has a delicate body, is excluded by Arthur, but Yae Sakura, who has good swordsmanship, makes Arthur's eyes shine.
If this little lady can be pulled onto the Kaslana family's warship, it is estimated that Yaeji will not be able to escape.
Involving the game between the two families, it is also possible that a member of the Apocalis family married the little lady.
This also maintains a balance......
Arthur's thoughts are known only to him, and if Yae Ji finds out, it is unknown what the consequences of this person who can do everything for his sisters will be brought down with a meander......
Afternoon.
Ned, who had a somewhat decadent temperament, came to him, and the devil knows what he'd been through in the past few days.
Yae Ji observed that Ned's gaze on his sister Sakura had increased significantly, much to his displeasure.
"Yae, the appointment will come down soon, accompany me to the Holy See early tomorrow morning to get the letter of appointment, and by the way, it will be good for you in the future."
Early the next morning.
As usual, Yaeji, who had a rice ball in his belly, followed Ned to the Holy See.
The minarets are towering, the pointed arches are carved with reliefs full of the story of the Mandate of Heaven, and the slender pillars stand one by one...... This is Yaeji's second visit to the Cathedral of Destiny.
Even after the baptism of the modern world of Tokyo's Kind of Replica, seeing the building of the Mandate Cathedral again, I still sigh in my heart.
With Ned leading, the letter of appointment was easy to get in hand, and he was familiar with several Apokalis archclericals.
These great priests who knew some secrets were very polite to Yaeji, and if the people outside saw that these powerful priests were so serious about a "child", they would definitely be surprised.
Yae Ji didn't show too mature, but instead made the temperament on his body closer to that of the retired Valkyrie.
To learn the temperament of a Valkyrie, his captain 'Aretha' was definitely one of them.
When the great priests talked about politics and other countries, Yae Ji kept silent, and only said a word or two about the rebels, the Valkyrie troops, the beast tide, and so on.
This put Ned at ease, in his opinion, Yaeji, who is still relatively young, must have an easy character to shape. Just let him unconsciously lean towards the Apokalis family.
The one who was arranged before will definitely not be able to meet Yae Ji, and now the eldest lady of the Kaslana family is glued to Yae Ji's side, if one of them is careless...... It may cause friction between the two families of the Mandate of Heaven.
Don't look at the frequent marriages of the two families, they are harmonious on the surface, but in fact, the wrestling in the secret has never stopped, and there is more than one friction with the help of small things.
What's more, as the eldest lady of the Caslana family and the daughter of Francis, the 'God of War' of Destiny, Kalian's marriage is by no means a trivial matter.
Even Francis, who has always been the political secretary of the Holy See, has gone, isn't this a disguised affirmation? If he is dying...... There is no doubt that he will fall victim to this background.
Fortunately, Yaeji is easy to control at this age, and Ned carefully calculated it in his heart.
Everyone had different thoughts, but Yae Ji didn't think about it so much, he was still thinking about his future father-in-law's belongings......
Just as everyone was about to walk down the second floor of the Holy See, Yae Ji saw two familiar figures!
......
"Auntie, I said that this kind of good thing will definitely not be our turn to do!" Leaning against the wall, a girl dressed as a Valkyrie said to herself: "Now there are dead people everywhere, and the finances of all places are tight, and those old guys have insight into this matter in advance, so they will kick the ball to us." ”
"It's okay now, it's been a few days, and a lot of various documents have been signed, but the money hasn't been approved! If you want me to say, there are so many things in this Holy See! How dare a little priest embarrass us! ”
Colleen gritted her teeth: "If they have the ability, they will go to the front line to fight against the Honkai Beast!" It's comfortable to sit in church all day! ”
"Alright, Coleen." The woman standing next to the girl spoke, and there was tiredness in her eyes that could not be concealed.
The legion commander is not here, and they have no choice, at first these people were very polite to them, and then they ......
"Auntie, why don't we write a letter about this to the Legion Commander? If she came forward, those people would definitely not even dare to let out a fart! ”
Daria's ears moved, and she motioned with her eyes to her little niece to shut up.
Yaeji, who was about to go downstairs, casually glanced inside......
Stop.
As soon as Yae Ji stopped, Ned followed suit. Seeing Ned stop, the great priests also stopped and looked in the direction Yaeji was looking.
"Acquaintances?" Ned asked.
"Hmm." Yae Ji nodded, "From the Eastern General Military Region, I came to take their carriage. I thought they were gone. ”
"I'll go and see first, or you ......"
Yae Ji turned his head, and a high priest saw the sign hanging in the corridor, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Go and go together." ”
Others chimed in.
So Yaeji and the others walked in the direction where Daria was.
Colleen was disdainful, and her little face was turned aside, as if she didn't want to look at the priests who had upset her.
Something bad rose in Daria's heart, couldn't it be that they heard the voice of the little niece just now?
When Valkyries kill enemies on the battlefield, they are all life-and-death fights, and life and death can be seen at a glance. And this group of great clergy who stay in the church all day to deal with the affairs of the Holy See, they kill people without seeing blood! No one can beat them!
But...... Why does the leader look so familiar?!
Iconic pink hair, isn't it...... Daria's eyes lit up!
"Daria, Colleen, long time no see." Yaeji, who came to the two of them, smiled and said hello.
Because of the letter of appointment, Ned specially made Yae Ji wear a formal point, and a sophisticated custom priest's robe changed Yae Ji's temperament.
"Yae?"
Hearing her aunt's voice, Colleen also turned her head and saw Yae Ji and the group of great priests behind her.
Colleen seized the opportunity to tell everything that had happened these days.
A high priest received Ned's eyes and asked gently: "The Valkyrie's pension is indeed a big problem, you are only representing the Eastern General Military Region, excluding Hein and Mena?" ”
"Hmmm! We only represent the Eastern General Military Region, and all the applications for the office have been submitted in the past few days, but there has been no movement at all, and the attitude of the clergy is bad, and we are very impatient to ask a question at every turn. ”
Daria hurriedly motioned to Colleen to say less, but the more Colleen talked, the more addicted she became, as if she wanted to tell all the grievances she had suffered in the past few days.
The archpriest pondered, "This attitude should be changed, and now that the finances of the various legions are tight, it will definitely not be able to approve them all." In this way, take half of it to the emergency first, and wait for the Holy See to deal with the matter for a while, and slowly approve the funds. ”
Daria and Colleen looked at each other and could only nod, they were already satisfied with the result.
Unexpectedly, the door next to him suddenly opened, and a man wearing a midshipman's robe leaned out, with an extremely impatient expression: "I said don't make noise at the door!" You can't bother it! Don't let people ....... Goo~"
The sleepy eyes of the midshipman gradually opened, and his voice became weaker and weaker, and finally he swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva.
"Great, great."
The great priest who had helped Daria with his advice at the beginning frowned, and said in an unquestioning tone, "Call your boss over!" ”
"Yes, yes!" The midshipman was furious and hurried into the room.
Seeing that Yaeji and those great priests had spoken a few more words, the blond-haired and green-eyed young man was even more reprimanded.
Colleen and Daria were shocked, could it be that young man with blond hair and green eyes...... A member of the Apocalis family?
At first, they thought of Yaeji's identity very highly, such as the child of a powerful priest in the Holy See, or the son of a legion commander stationed in a country, but they never expected it...... She was able to get along with the members of the Apokalis family.
The young man of the Apokalis family seemed to care a lot about Yae's thoughts, could they ...... Wait, why is Yae wearing a men's priest's robe?!
......
After the incident, the rotten system in the Holy See should indeed be rectified, and as for how much of a role it can play, who knows.
After thanking her again and again, Daria and Colleen left with half of the funds they had received first.
Yaeji's mind began to come alive again, it was so difficult for the Valkyrie to get a pension, so could he also do something in it to win people's hearts?
Yaeji, who had a lot of plans in mind, returned home and began to pack up his things, and early tomorrow morning, he would go to the Siti District to serve as a sub-inspector.
Sakura and Rin are so excited, they are about to have their own home!
The small manor they lived in was Ned's property, and even if they lived for two months, they still didn't have that sense of belonging.
Rin has long been able to walk on her own, and is learning how to make rice balls with her sister, trying her best to do what she can.
Of course, when there are outsiders, she is still the delicate girl in a wheelchair. Unless her brother allows it, she will definitely never be exposed!
On the day they left, Sakura and Rin watched silently under the three cherry blossom trees they had planted.
The cherry blossoms have not yet sprouted, and only the bare branches remain, and with the loveliness of the cherry blossoms and Rin, this beauty is firmly supported.
Putting the important things in the backpack, and leaving all the other minor things to the guards to carry, Yaeji, who was directing the carrying, glanced in the direction of the cherry blossom tree.
He shouted with a smile: "If you like it, just say hello to Ned and move away!" ”
The guard who was carrying the items on the side sank, and he couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he heard this.
"Can you really move out?"
Sakura and Rin's eyes were full of anticipation, and Yae Ji looked at the three cherry blossom trees that had not been in the yard for a few days.
One is thicker, and the other two are thinner.
Yaju Ji waved his hand, "Dig it up!" ”
Outside the manor, Ned saw three cherry blossom trees dug up, wrapped in large cloth bags and loaded with dirt from the roots, and his smiling face stiffened.
"You're going to move too?"
"People always have nostalgia." Yae Ji pretended to pat Ned on the shoulder.
"Okay, I'll leave this to you." Ned waved his hand into the distance, and in Yae-ki's puzzled expression, Otto in his lawn-colored top hat trotted over.
......
in the carriage.
Originally, it was just him and his sisters in the carriage, but Otto was stuffed inside.
After accidentally seeing Otto being stuffed inside, Kalian, who was sitting in another carriage with Arthur, forced her way into Yaeji again, leaving Arthur alone in the other carriage and sighing.
Looking at Kalian, who was messing around with Sakura, Yae Ji was expressionless.
Otto was a little timid, holding the top hat that Yae Ji gave him in his arms, not daring to play with Karen and the others, nor daring to make eye contact with Yae Ji.
After about two or three minutes, Otto licked his lips and said, "The doctor said that my body has been much better recently, maybe the teacher has been training well." My brother asked me to continue exercising with the teacher, and the family agreed, so I ......"
"I won't bother the teacher!" Otto hurriedly said, "The residence that my brother has arranged for me should be next to the residence of the teacher's inspector......"
Yae Ji covered his face.
If it wasn't necessary, he wouldn't even want to bring Kalen.
Karen is going to the Siti district, and she must have come to play with her sister Sakura all day long. That Rin's words...... I still can't stand up and move freely.
And now add another Otto, and God knows what the Apokalis family thinks! Do you want Otto to combine with Sakura or Rin? Yaeji looked at Otto's eyes and immediately became vigilant.
Otto's talent for inventing things is good, but ...... Wait a minute!
Yaeki suddenly thought that Otto was also a direct member of the Apokalis family, the youngest son of the Archbishop of Destiny.
That means ...... Otto also has the right of inheritance as an archbishop?
Yaeji smiled and said, "Wait for the day after tomorrow, everything will be the same the day after tomorrow, remember to come to my house early in the morning to exercise." ”
As soon as Otto's little hand holding the top hat loosened, the tension in his heart disappeared. When he saw Yaeji's expression just now, he thought that the "teacher" would not agree.
After all, he doesn't do anything but think about some gadgets.
It's good now! He's still the same as he used to be!
Otto's little face was full of surprise and replied, "Yes! ”
......
