"Alright! Give the staff back to Uncle Priest! ”

Arrow threw his hands on his hips and roared, and the little ones jumped off the table with a scream. But instead of handing the staff back to the bread, they put it on the table and ran in droves towards the classroom behind them.

Looking at the little guys' foolish expressions, Arrow sighed. Seeing that the Holy Breads was about to take the staff, Arrow hurriedly stepped forward, picked up the staff of light, and respectfully handed it into the hands of the Holy Bread.

"The townspeople in small places like to fool around."

Seeing the holy bread take it, Arrow said with some apologies—

"But Uncle Sacred Cake, I've heard that the staff is a very important thing for magicians? You're so casual about getting rid of it, okay? ”

Holy Cake smiled, raised his head to look at his staff of light, which was obviously some years old, and said with a smile, "It's okay, this staff can only be used by people with strong light magic. And a pact has been made with me, though it may not have been so precious to me over the years...... Hehe, but my old partner is not the kind of pampered treasure that needs to be kept when there is nothing to do, and only taken out and used when there is something. ”

As he spoke, the Holy Cake found a corner in the guild's rest area and sat down to rest. At the same time, as he had said, he put the staff aside in a careless manner, as if there was no such cautious posture that a traditional priest would immediately drop several levels of combat power when he left the staff.

Seeing this scene, Arrow couldn't help but think of the little necromancer in his own house.

If Coco was asked to put down her wand, would she still be able to look so calm?

Well, sure enough, self-confidence is supported by strength.

"Uncle Holy Cake, small place, there's nothing to entertain."

Arrow walked into the kitchen, and after a while, he brought out a plate of special salad and put it in front of the holy bread, and said with a smile—

"Let's have lunch soon! I'll be sure to show you a good hand at lunch! “

The holy cake was not polite, nodded with a smile, and picked up a fork and took a bite of the salad.

In an instant, the priest was immediately impressed by the rich but not greasy taste of the cheese sauce mixed with the sweet vegetables, and quickly took another bite.

"Uh-huh! I didn't expect the president's craftsmanship to be so good? Seeing that the president is not very old, where did he learn such a good cook? ”

Arrow laughed and said, "When I was in school, I thought the food in the cafeteria was really unpalatable, and I was lucky that there was a small shop behind the dormitory building where I lived, and I was willing to lend me the stove for the sake of our school's name." I thought I had been eating small stoves for years. ”

After two bites in a row, the eyes of the holy bread began to glow. Although Arrow felt that a high priest should not have eaten anything good, but thinking that this time he was following the army to this kind of poor country, I am afraid that his tongue has been dry for a long time.

"Old Tengshu Academy~~~ Well, in this way, President Arrow should have been in contact with a lot of people in the school, right?"

After a short period of eating, the Holy Bread suddenly stopped, and said in a slightly nostalgic tone—

"Hmm...... I used to want to go to the old Tengshu College to take a look and borrow the student roster. After all, being a high priest is also one of my goals. After all, it's easier for the High Priest to access the files of the students of your school......"

As he spoke, he took another bite—

"It's just a pity that the amount of data is too large...... And I'm not easy to find. ”

Speaking of which, Arrow knew that the priest had brought up the red-haired woman again.

After thinking about it, Arrow opened his mouth and asked, "Uncle Holy Cake, what if...... If it's not a very private thing, can you tell me why you're looking for this redhead woman? What is her relationship with you? ”

At the mention of this, the holy bread sighed slightly.

He looked at the salad in his hand, and there were only a few bites left, but he couldn't eat it for a while. And looking at his thoughts, it seems that he has drifted to a long time ago, and he doesn't know where to start.

Arrow didn't interject either, just let him continue to remember.

After a long time, the priest raised his hand slightly, rubbed the corners of his slightly moist eyes, raised his head again, and showed a helpless smile: "Actually...... I also know that this is very unlikely. After all, I've been separated from her for almost thirteen or fourteen years. After so many years, it's hard to say if she still remembers her name, and even no longer calls her original name? I went to your principal with the intention of giving it a try and asked him to show me the roster of your students. ”

"However, your school's roster is not labeled with a map, only a name and family registration. Alas...... I don't even know what her name is now, or what she looks like. After so many years, I knew that my hope was slim. The only thing I hope for now is that she will be safe and carefree. If you're lucky, you'll be able to be taken in by a good family. Even if...... Even now, she has completely forgotten about me as a father, and that doesn't matter. ”

For a moment, Arrow felt as if he understood the actions of the priest in front of him.

Why would a clergyman with the title of "high priest" run around instead of staying in the Holy See? Why did the high priest have to make a personal visit to such a remote rural village, and then when he saw someone, he wanted to ask about the red-haired woman.

At least, the priesthood was not, as he claimed, purely to help civilians suffering and suffering. Walking around and doing good deeds everywhere is actually for the comfort of his own heart, and at the same time he has the slightest hope.

"Why don't you ask the Holy See to help you find it?"

Arrow poured him a glass of water—

"With the power of the Bright Sect, it shouldn't be difficult to find an eighteen or nineteen-year-old red-haired girl across the country."

Holy Cake smiled, nodded and said, "Well, it's not difficult. But the problem is that each high priest has different areas under their control, and I can't let the other colleagues do nothing on their own to help me find this daughter who has been separated for so many years. On the other hand, many people are missing every day in our empire, and the parents of those missing children are sad and desperate in addition to asking for help from the security guards, so they can only come to our church to pray and ask for our help. ”

He took a sip of tea, put it down and said with a smile: "I can't just stop the search for the children of ordinary people, and use a lot of the Holy See's power specifically to find my daughter, right?" ”

After saying this, the smile on the pastor's face looked a little uncomfortable. He fumbled with the teacup, kept turning it in circles, and kept whispering—

"After all...... It's been a long time...... If not that old......"

Arrow exhaled, and could only say with some regret: "Uncle Holy Cake, a red-haired girl of eighteen or nineteen...... I do know a few of them. However, judging by family and status, they should be unlikely to be your daughters. So...... But don't be too discouraged, I'm sure you'll be reunited with your daughter one day. Worst of all, your daughter must know that you've been looking for him, and maybe she's trying to find you right now! ”

Holy Cake cracked his mouth and smiled, and in addition to a little relief, these smiles seemed to be a little grateful to Arrow for his understanding.

Seeing this, Arrow stood up from his seat: "Let's not always think about the past, everything must look forward!" When will we be able to find the most important person in our lives? Uncle Sacred Bread, would you like to visit my guild? Now those kids are in the back of the class, you're a pastor, can you come and help me see if my teaching methods are appropriate? ”

The Holy Cake nodded lightly and said, "Okay, let's go." “

Seeing the priest regain his spirits, Arrow was also relieved. He led the way, but the cat was now suddenly flying from the storeroom, and circled around the holy bread.

"Huh? …… Odd. ”

Arrow frowned, why are they so rude? Although the high priest himself does not mind, it is better to do less of this impolite behavior.

After all, being kind to others is related to whether money will automatically run into your pocket!

"What are you doing?"

Asked by Arrow, Napa seemed a little hesitant. Its little head was shaking, and its tail was a little drooping.

As if in the last confirmation, the cat circled the holy bread again, and finally shook its head slightly, and said, "It's nothing. I've been thinking about one thing for a long time, and I don't have the heart to teach those little kids a lesson until I find the answer, so I'm going to run out and take a look. But now it seems a bit impolite to say that...... But...... Forget it, maybe it's really my nose problem. ”

This kind of rambling made Arrow a little unhappy, but just when he wanted to ask the cat what was going on......

"Help! Help me! President Arrow! ”

The door opened, and Dr. Kora stumbled in again. Looking at the dejected appearance, Arrow couldn't help but sigh.

"What's wrong?"

Dr. Kora reached out against the wall and hurried to the counter, and before Arrow could fully enter the counter, the barefoot doctor said in a slightly panicked voice—

"Yes...... Yes...... There are monsters! The monster is out! Shining Forest!! ”

Arrow was stunned for a moment: "Monsters? Slime? Just walk around, huh? ”

"No...... Not a slime! What is a slime? Be...... Is it bigger...... Greater ...... Monster! It's a hooktooth rat! ”

"The hooktooth rat...... All...... It's as tall as my waist! So big! Still covered in thorns! Vicious-looking, stingy hook-toothed rats!! ”
