Chapter 184: Father George

Along the way, the teenager was enthusiastic.

Leading Sakura towards the church on the mountain road, the boy was like a guide, introducing Sakura to the local customs, of course, under the guidance of Sakura's topic, the boy always involuntarily took the topic to the mysterious priest of the church.

"Do you mean that the priest lives alone in the church, and you usually work odd jobs with him to earn living expenses?"

Sakura followed the boy who trotted all the way unhurriedly, and although Sakura's pace looked leisurely and slow, the degree did not fall at all.

When the boy heard this, he slowed down a little and stopped to look through the gap in the trees to the church at the top of the hill.

It should be said that the vitality of young people is tenacious, the young man who was just surrounded and beaten like that, but at this time he has recovered the life of the dragon and the tiger, except for the bruise on his face, which still looks a little ruined, but from the young man's energetic appearance, it seems that he has not been born at all The same thing as before.

"Sister, the church is almost there. The priest is a good man, and if the people in the town have any problems that cannot be solved, or if they have some injuries that are not very serious, they all ask the priest for help. ”

When talking about the priest, there was always a hint of respect in the young man's eyes.

Remembering the tragic experience of his youth, the young man whispered a little worriedly.

"I, for as long as I can remember, I have lived in an orphanage in the town, I don't know who my parents are, and the children in the town dislike me for being a person without parents, and no one wants to be friends with me."

Sakura slowly followed behind him, listening quietly.

"And then?"

"Then the orphanage closed down and I had nowhere to go. That night, I was so hungry that I went to the church to steal the money that the townsman had donated to the church, and the priest showed me... ”

Speaking of these unbearable pasts, the young man's face was slightly red with an embarrassed smile.

Sakura smiled and asked, "So he saw that you took you in pitifully?" ”

The boy stared at Sakura with an innocent and immaculate gaze, and his hurried tone was full of admiration for the priest.

"I was so nervous! I thought I would be beaten up by the priest and thrown out, but I didn't expect the priest to tell me that... The boy coughed, pretending to be deep as if he wanted to imitate the priest's posture and tone, and his lowered voice was still a little immature.

"Ahem, little one! It's not right to steal things, in front of my lord~ you must not do such a thing that damages the divine light~~"

Sakura was amused by the little guy's pretended old-fashioned performance, and covered her mouth and laughed.

"Hehe, do you mean that priest is an old man, how boring that is!"

Sakura's eyes flashed with an imperceptible glint because on the information that Na Weiyang handed her, the priest was a young man who looked to be in his twenties. Could it be that the information is wrong?

"It's not!" The boy scratched his head and thought for a while, as if he was thinking about why he looked like an old man in the way he showed this beautiful sister.

Not very well understood! But... The priest looked older than he was, and the boy kept calling him uncle anyway.

"According to Uncle Priest, he is only in his twenties, but he talks like a bad old man, and he always likes to instill some strange and incomprehensible Bible and theology!"

The boy complained, waving his hand in disgust, just like the expressions of those students who didn't like to go to class.

"It's always God~ Lord! Oh my God... If there is really a god here, take this demon uncle quickly!! ”

The boy covered his head and pretended to be crazy, muttering with an unhappy face, but Sakura could tell that this guy wasn't telling the truth.

Sakura restrained her smile and looked at the boy earnestly with a calm expression.

"In that case, you'll feel lonely, won't you?"

The boy pretended to be surprised, and immediately shook his head sharply in a funny way.

"How is that possible!! I don't know how happy that guy would be if he wasn't there! ”

Sakura nodded with an inexplicable smile and deep meaning.

"That's fine...

"Huh?" The boy looked at Sakura, and for some reason he felt uneasy. It seems that a voice in the bottom of his heart is telling him that it was a wrong decision to take this beautiful big sister to the priest!

He shook his head violently, throwing the inexplicable thought out of his mind. This sister is a partner of 'justice', and she just saved herself, so how can she be a bad person! Don't think about it!

The boy looked at the guitar case Sakura was carrying behind with a curious look, and asked with great interest, "Sister, are you a traveling musician?" I know this, there have been those tricky people in the town before, and they will force lions and tigers to jump the fire ring! ”

Juvenile! That's an acrobatic troupe is good! Did you come out of some ravine?

Shaking her head helplessly, Sakura didn't bother to explain the difference to the other party.

"Yes, a friend asked me to come to church and 'play' a song for that priest!"

The sarcasm in Sakura's smile was not noticed by the innocent boy.

"That... Can I also listen to it along? ”

"No! This 'tune' is not something that anyone can listen to, and only priests can listen to it by name! "β€”Death Sonata!

Sakura's undoubted refusal, coupled with that cold expression, made the young man who was looking at her full of hope a little lost for a while.

"Ahh By the way, I forgot to introduce it, my name is Takumi Saijo! Sister, you have to remember! The boy who remembered something turned around and shouted at Sakura, forgetting the loss, and continued to run and jump happily in front of him.

Sakura nodded and returned with a light smile, "Don't worry, you won't forget." ”

As an ordinary passer-by, maybe you won't even remember what you look like in the blink of an eye. However, Sakura is not a person who is completely ignorant of human affairs, and she can still say a few words on the scene. While the two were chatting and walking, the church gradually emerged from the separated bushes and appeared in front of them.

Pure white mud lime is laid on the walls of the church, solemn and neat.

Takumi Saijo opened the door of the church with a familiar car, and the first thing that caught Sakura's eye was the statue of the crucifixion in the innermost part of the church, which brought a wonderful five-color divine light to the pure white lime statue through the stained glass of the back window. The intoxicating golden sunlight spreads on the ground, adding a touch of holiness and tranquility to the church, and the door opens with a "squeak" to welcome the two guests.

"Uncle Priest, there's a guest who wants to see you, so get your soda ready! I'm dying of thirst~! ”

As soon as the door was opened, Takumi Saijo couldn't wait to yell and scream, completely destroying the quiet beauty of the church.

"It's noisy! Stinky little ghost, every time I come here, I yell and scream!! ”

From the room in the depths of the church, a young man with a beard and blue eyes walked out, speaking fluent Japanese, and swearing rather annoyingly.

Sakura watched quietly, and information about this person quickly appeared in her mind - George. Anthony, A-rank Earth Elemental Master!!

"Ahh You stinky boy, you're fighting again? How many times have I told you, don't always cause trouble, why don't you listen! ”

Scratching his head with impatience on his face, and was reprimanding the young man with a dissatisfied face, the priest suddenly raised his head and noticed that there seemed to be an extra person at the door today. The girl who seemed to be out of place in the atmosphere of this town had a strange and serene smile.
