Chapter 13: The Land of Night

At night, near the main entrance of the amusement park

"It's still so strong, and that body is more pretentious, isn't it~~~Youzhu~~~~" Cangqi was very anxious in his heart, after all, he was proud of his sneak attack, but unfortunately he didn't even hurt people's hair.

"I'm really surprised, Aoko. Even if it's boring, humans sometimes do it. With a sneer, Miss Kuenji pointed to the ground with her left hand with a heartfelt expression of admiration on her face.

"Thorn stab stab stab ~~~~~" On the ground, countless knives and forks broke through the ground.

"Stupid! Jump back!! Aoko shouted at Kamiya.

As if it had a will, the artifact that stabbed out of the ground chased after the two who had escaped backwards.

"Too much deception!" In Kamiya's heart, a wave of anger burned.

"Ding-dong!" The boy used the sword he bought to smash two forks that had been poked at him.

"Huh? You?! Aoko looked at Kamiya in disbelief.

Looking at the young man's small performance, the witch Jiuyuan Temple did not hesitate too much, but directly took out a small bottle.

"Green ...... Flask? I remember that it was- Oops! Qingzi's face changed greatly, and he shook his hand and shot a string of magic bullets.

"Jingle Bell~~~~" However, the magic bullet was blocked by the knives, forks and plates of the Jiuyuan Temple.

There was no trace of relief on Aoko's face.

Immediately, the lid of the vial opened, and the strange knives, forks and plates hastily disappeared. And from somewhere, the footsteps of a nostalgic parade of costumes were heard.

The amusement park, which had been abandoned for a long time, was revived in front of the eyes of the two.

"It's a lie...... it's a miracle that even Aoko, a trainee magician, has never experienced.

The dead revive, the inanimate awaken. With the gentle brushing of her slender fingers, the entire amusement park was restored to its former glory with her gestures, and countless colored lights illuminated the night. Music from the record came out of the speakers. Merry-go-rounds, large and small, come into play. It was as if they were welcoming the two at the door.

"Very well, let's play a game, Aoko." What was once the ruins of dreams has been reborn as a kingdom with only one night of life. It was an undead monster that had eaten away at reality. Once liberated, a dark fairy tale that never lets its prey escape.

"If you can, run away. I don't know where you'll go – but if you can get through the night, you'll win. Her opening proclamation was so desperate.

"Bang!" Kamiya slammed the hilt of his sword into the back of Aosaki's head, and the latter collapsed into his arms.

"Let her go, it's none of her to do with it." Holding Princess Aozaki to his chest, Ueya looked up at Kuenji Temple sitting on a street lamp.

"...................................." Jiuyuan Temple looked at Shanggu and was silent for a long time.

"You're just trying to kill me, right, if I walk into your amusement park, then all this has nothing to do with her, and the rest is a matter for the two of us."

"...................................." Jiuyuan Temple held his chin, as if he was thinking about something.

"You have a deal with her, right, why don't you settle me here first, and then you two will settle the agreement."

"Why?" A simple question expresses Youzhu's current incomprehension.

"Alas~~~~ People and people, sometimes it's so complicated." Kamiya shook his head.

"Originally, she was very dedicated to killing me, but because of some episodes in the middle, I helped her, so she decided to kill me again tomorrow, in short, the purpose of killing me has not changed. What you two are struggling with is the time to kill me. What I'm struggling with is escape. ”

"Why...... Don't run away......" Youzhu tilted her head and stared at Kamigu.

"Leaving the boy who ran away from the beautiful student council is the worst~~~~~ "Ueya made a very sunny smile towards Youzhu.

"I'll let her go." A simple sentence makes Upper Valley like an amnesty.

"Thank you." Ueya put Aosaki on the ground. After that, she soared into the air and was pulled out of the illusion by Youzhu.

Looking at the young man who turned around and walked into the illusion, the witch's lips moved slightly.

"Let you go, too...... If you can survive tonight. ”

At the same time, Hetian Church

At night, the church in Hetian is lit by candlelight, and the dim light reflects the holy images carved on the walls of the church, whether they are sacred or strange, ordinary people cannot tell.

"You must have felt the heresy in the suburbs, didn't you, Priest?" In the candlelight of the church, Sister Vija stood behind Father Yongli who was praying and questioned him.

"So I'm praying." Father Yongli did not look back, still reciting the prayer in his mouth.

"Prayer cannot drive out heresy, let alone save the faithful!" Sister Weijia looked anxiously at Father Yongli.

"It's not that you don't know about this heresy, and you and I can't help her."

But when he saw that the wind was very strong, he was afraid that he was about to sink, and cried out, "Lord, save me!" Sister Vija stood behind Father Yongli and recited the scriptures.

"For whoever wants to save his life will lose it," replied Fr. Yongli.

"The Son of Man has come to save the lost." Sister Weijia said again.

"When the disciples heard this, they were astonished and said, 'Who then can be saved?' ”

"Unless those days are shortened, no flesh will be saved." Father Yongli replied in two sentences.

The rest said, "Wait, and see if Elijah comes to save him." ”

Then he asked them, "Which is it lawful to do good and evil on the Sabbath day, and to save lives?" Sister Vicker also used two verses.

"And the disciples were exceedingly amazed, and said to him, 'Who then can be saved?' Father Yongli finally turned around.

"Jesus said to her, 'Daughter, your faith has saved you, return in peace!' Thy plague is healed. Sister Weijia folded her hands together and made up her mind.

"If you go like this, you will also give away your life in vain, why don't you understand? Only the shelf? Father Yongli was very sorry.

"Fighting and dying against heretics will not affect your performance." There was a hint of disdain in Sister Weijia's tone.

"In that case, it's your freedom to go wherever you go." Father Yongli turned around and continued to pray.

Sister Weijia bowed slightly, turned and walked into the side hall.

Entering the reliquary from the side hall, Sister Weijia walked to a box that had been delivered at noon today. The arrival of this box was not known to the priest, because he was not in the church at the time, but was taken over by Sister Weijia from the person in charge of transporting the surrogate, and took the dictation of the diocesan bishop. Although it is the dictation of the diocesan bishop, the diocesan bishop is only a message, a short sentence of "save it on your behalf." It came from the mouth of the Sistine, which really shocked Sister Weijia for a long time, and almost lost her temper in front of the surrogate of the outer church.

"Symbolum_Apostolorum" Sister Weijia caressed the delicate little box, and whispered the holy name engraved on it.

"Dear Deacon Fabio, I beg your pardon for using the holy relics that the Church has stored for you here. If I survive this time, I will definitely return the original items, and I will never delay your trip to the New Capital Church; If I die, I will repent of my sins by the Lord's side, please forgive me...... In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Nun Vija reverently drew a cross in front of her. After the ceremony, she carefully picked up the small box on the table and left the Hetian Church.
