Chapter Ninety-Nine: Farewell
In the end, under the deliberate guidance of Fangzheng, this matter ended successfully. The chubby face felt that he had pitted Fangzheng, a "simple and upright" young man, and he couldn't be proud. And Fang Zheng also used the hand of the chubby face to alienate the relationship with the temple. Everyone took what they needed and was very satisfied. Therefore, every time he saw the chubby-faced bishop, Fang Zheng was also smiling. And that chubby face is also quite enthusiastic, but I'm afraid that deep down he is still laughing at Fang Zheng, a stupid idiot, who has cut off his own way out.
But what does the saying come about? Everyone has their own happiness.
On the contrary, Stone was quite angry after hearing about this, and pulled Fang Zheng to go to the bishopric to ask for an explanation. However, Fang just said that it was only after saying that Stone dispelled this idea.
And as Fang Zheng expected, his fief was also gone, according to the order issued by the bishopric, Fang Zheng was going to study in the White Tower, and the fief naturally continued to be entrusted to the temple during this time. Founder has long been mentally prepared for this, which can be regarded as a habitual method. It's like a carrot hanging in front of a mule, the so-called "after-effect". If Fang Zheng finally "repented" in the White Tower and felt that the temple was better, then he would naturally be able to gain this territory again.
But if Fang Zheng is "obsessed", then this fief will probably be given away by the temple at that time.
However, Fang Zheng didn't plan to ask for it, so he let them toss.
The situation on the Order Fortress side has stabilized for the time being, but there is no need for more manpower. And since it also takes a while to raise spirit crystals, Fang Zheng took Fina and Nimfu out shopping in a bored manner.
It's such a good thing to date two cute girls, how can you let it go!
It's a pity that neither this world nor Nimfu, the summoned little angel, doesn't seem to know what "dating" is, but it is naturally a happy thing to be able to go out and play with Fang Zheng. Therefore, they were also very happy to accept Fangzheng's invitation and began to walk around the city.
The Northern Temple is located in the royal city of the Northern Alliance, which is a city built on the mountainside, and the overall style is also full of the rich and wild atmosphere of the northern tribes.
However, to Fang Zheng's surprise, he actually saw a snack unique to the north in this place, which was a snack of wild fruits strung with wooden branches, dipped in sugar water, and then allowed to solidify in the cold wind. When you bite into it, it is sour and crunchy, with the sweetness of wild fruit and a touch of coldness, but it is quite enjoyable.
This suddenly reminded Fang Zheng of the sugar gourd in his own world, and immediately bought it to enjoy it. Of course, he didn't forget to give Nimfu and Fina a skewer each, and the two of them also had a great time.
"This one is delicious."
While taking a small sip, Nimfu narrowed her eyes happily. Although Nimfu was still wearing her strange costume at the moment, it did not cause much commotion. Because Fang Zheng had already ordered Nimfu to hide her wings, the temple was over, and if there were rumors about angels outside, it would not be a good thing for Nimfu. In fact, until now, few people know about the company of angels by Fangzheng's side. The upper echelons of the temple may have some understanding, but they clearly don't seem to be planning to get involved in doing anything.
But that's fine, if these guys dare to do anything, then don't blame Fang Zheng for turning his face and being ruthless.
"Eat more if you want, I'll treat you anyway."
Looking at Nimfu, Fang Zheng also stroked her head with a smile, and said quite arrogantly———In addition to the spirit crystal, the temple of this mission naturally has a monetary reward. Say more or less, say less than five thousand gold coins, and if you convert it, it is basically equivalent to Fang Zheng getting the year-end bonus in his own world, and it is no problem to eat Haisai salted fish for a year.
Although Fang said that, Nimfu and Fina were still a little embarrassed. In desperation, Fang Zheng had no choice but to take matters into his own hands, he bought Nimfu a bunch of various snacks from the Northland, and as for Fina, Fang Zheng gave her a silver jewelry made by a Northland craftsman as a gift. Although Fina was a little embarrassed about this, she finally accepted it obediently.
Although the silver jewelry is more expensive, Fang Zheng doesn't care, because this time it is not only a "date", but also a "farewell".
"Have you really decided to get out of here?"
Standing at the gate of the Northland Royal Capital, Fang Zheng stared at the priest girl in front of him, and when she noticed Fang Zheng's gaze, Fina nodded a little embarrassed.
"Yes, Mr. Founder, my parade is not over yet, so I will continue walking."
That's why it's unpredictable.
Looking at the priest girl in front of him, Fang Zheng also shrugged his shoulders. He didn't expect that he hadn't left yet, but that Fina had left the temple first. Originally, Fang Zheng thought that after arriving at the Northern Temple, Fina should stay here. After all, a parade is a trial, not a marathon. It's like Fang Zheng, as a trainee guardian knight, he was supposed to "go to the mountains and go to the countryside", but after following Shi Stone to clean up a handful of Chaos Sons, he could be regarded as meeting the requirements for advanced transfer, so he was "turned positive".
Because of this, in Fang Zheng's opinion, Fina, the priest, should probably be similar, after all, the "Gate of Hell" incident just did not cause serious consequences, but this does not mean that it is not dangerous. And as one of the members who prevented the gates of hell from reopening, isn't it natural for Fina to be promoted to a new official?
What Fang Zheng didn't expect was that when he went to find Fina, he was surprised to find that the other party planned to pack up and leave, and everyone fought together, which could be regarded as a friend. Therefore, Fang Zheng decided to follow the customs of his hometown and invite her out for a meal and go shopping by the way.
"It's you, Mr. Fangzheng......... Are you really going to the White Tower? ”
"That's right."
Hearing Fina's slightly worried inquiry, Fang Zheng nodded.
"I'm interested in the mysteries of magic, and ......... To be honest, I'm a pretty lazy person, and magic seems to help me with a lot of trouble. ”
"Whirring ........."
Hearing this, Fina couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.
"That's not the case, Mr. Fangzheng, the study of magic is more difficult than you think——— even more difficult than magic arts, if you just have the idea of being lazy, you will suffer?"
"People just want to be lazy, so they will improve."
"Mr. Fangzheng's speech is still so strange."
Fina shook her head helplessly, and then looked at Nimfu beside Fang Zheng with a smile on her face.
"Well, I'm leaving, Sister Nimfu, and you have to take care of yourself."
In the face of Fina's words, Nimfu took small bites of the "sugar gourd" and nodded slightly in response. Looking at Nimfu, Fina smiled slightly, then looked at Fang Zheng again.
"Then Mr. Fangzheng, I'm leaving, I hope you can do well in the White Tower, and ......... It's best not to let Nimfu's sister's identity be revealed, although the White Tower is the order camp, but their attitude towards angels is not as respectful as the temple, some of them may have bad thoughts about Nimfu's sister, please be careful. ”
"Thanks for the reminder."
In fact, Fang Zheng also had such worries, but he was not particularly worried. After all, Nimfu's ability can almost be said to be a mage nemesis, and she may not be able to do anything in the face of muscular paladins, but in the face of those mages, as long as Nimfu unfolds her "invasion domain", it is basically a word——— stable!
Of course, blind arrogance is not allowed, and the necessary preparations still need to be made.
"So, I'm leaving."
"Have a good journey, Miss Fina."
"You too, Mr. Founder, the goddess will bless you."
As she spoke, Fina bowed respectfully, and then she turned to leave. And Fang Zheng just watched the figure of the priest girl disappear into the crowd, and it didn't take long for her to disappear.
Fang Zheng was silent for a moment as he watched Fina leave, then he turned around and touched Nimfu's head.
"Let's go."
