Camilla's decision Ari didn't know that when the Sylvo family was preparing for the change of titles, he had already accompanied Algert, changed into civilian clothes, and quietly left the imperial capital to a small mountain village outside the imperial capital.

The village is called Holt Village, the Holt of the Holts, but there are no Holts in it, just the same name. This is an ordinary small mountain village, and the people living in the village are all farmers.

The most powerful man in the village was an honorary knight loyal to a certain earl.

However, the knight has been on an errand with the earl all the year round, and he has no management of this fief, as long as there is no problem with the annual accounts, he will not come here.

Therefore, when Ari and Aljet entered, passers-by turned their heads to look, although they were already very low-key, but this small village was not located on the side of the main road, and there were no special attractions, except for the tax officer, there would be no outsiders at all, and the two strangers naturally seemed a little dazzling.

"Hello, uncle, my eldest brother is suffering from a strange illness, I have heard that the priest in the village is well-informed and experienced, I don't know if you know ......" Ari asked politely to an old man on the side of the road, and at the same time gave Alger a color, Alger immediately coughed violently, looking terminally ill.

Fortunately, although Algert's acting skills are not good, the old man's eyes don't seem to be very good, and he actually believes it.

"Then you may have found the right person, Pastor Mary's level of divine healing is extremely high, and the fee is usually very low, or even nothing," the old man said, suddenly looked at Ari and Algert, and said, "But the priest is kind, we can't be grateful, our village doesn't have much money, but the people in the village usually send some of their own mountain goods......"

"Yes, please take us to see Pastor Maria, whether the illness is good or not, we will express our hearts, this is for the old man your ......" Ari said, took out a few silver coins and handed them to the old man, this is what he can prepare, it is too dazzling to come to the village to use gold coins.

After the old man took the silver coins, he glanced at them, then returned them to Ari, and said dissatisfiedly: "I am telling you this, not to ask you to give me money, as long as you don't accept the help of the priest in vain, she is too kind......

The old man said, turning around and showing the way for Ari.

"It seems that Sophia is really good to the villagers, otherwise the villagers would not think about her so much. Ari sighed.

Mary is naturally the one who seems to be the Holy Maiden of Sophia.

Aljet pouted: "Yelena is really good-hearted. ”

Irry didn't bother to argue with this sour man, so he took two quick steps and leaned over to chat with the old man.

Ari has a sunny appearance, and when he was a child, he grew up in Bran Village, and deliberately searched for topics, and soon won the favor of the old man and got a lot of useful news.

The village is not very big, and the old man quickly took the two of them to the place, but the old man did not go in with him, but found a stone outside the house and sat down, and it seemed that he had no intention of leaving for a short time.

Ari glanced at Algert, shook his head, and said, "Look at you, can't you keep a low profile, I can't let people let down their guard like that, people don't worry about you." ”

Algert shrugged his shoulders, naturally he didn't take Ari's accusation to heart, and he could be blamed for being tall?

The wooden door of the courtyard was open, and Ari knew that this was what the priest meant at home, and when she was in Bran Village, so did Elena, unless the courtyard door was closed, the priest was consulted.

Entering the courtyard, Ari knocked on the door and politely asked into the room, "Hello, is Pastor Mary there?"

"Come in. A soft female voice came out of the room.

Ari was not polite, and entered the hall of the room with Algert, and soon a woman of about forty years old dressed in a priest's robe came out of the room.

Ari looked at the woman's outfit and was a little surprised.

It's not too pretty, it's too ordinary!

Judging from the looks of Merlin and Yelena, although the saint does not have the appearance of a country and a city, she still needs a certain appearance.

And the Mary in front of her, with a bucket waist, a wine trough nose, and a little spot on her face, maybe only that gentle attitude has a hint of the appearance of a saint.

Ari thought for a moment and said directly: "Holy Maiden Sophia, we came to you on purpose to learn something from you. ”

When she heard the name Sophia, Maria's face changed slightly, and after a while, she shook her head and said with a smile: "Holy Maiden Sophia, I haven't heard of it, my name is Maria, you may have found the wrong person." ”

Hearing this, Aljet was anxious: "How can you not be the Holy Maiden of Sophia, we found out from the records of the temple that you came to the Phantom Cloud Empire, and specially came to the Phantom Cloud Empire to look for you." ”

"Sorry, I don't really know Sophia. As Maria spoke, the door was about to close, and Algeret was in a hurry to hold the door, but Ari grabbed her arm.

"Whether you are a Sophian saint or not, don't you want to know who asked us to come to you?"

"I don't care about ......"

"Archbishop Maximus, you won't say you don't know each other. ”

Hearing Maximus's name, Maria's hand closed the door and suddenly stopped there, her eyes staring at Ari.

Ari looked calm: "It's not just Maximus, but also her daughter, don't you want to know what's going on now?"

"Her daughter, you speak of her ......" Mary's face changed.

"That's right, she's the one you think!" Ari nodded affirmatively.

"She actually has a daughter...... She actually has a daughter......" Maria's pupils dilated suddenly, and she looked incredulous.

"Who is she you talking about?" Seeing Maria's emotion, Algert asked Ari secretly.

Ari shrugged, and it was all in plain sight.

Soon, Maria returned to normal, glanced at Ari and Algert, and leaned sideways to get out of the way: "Come in." ”

Undoubtedly, this is an indirect acknowledgment of one's identity.

"Tell me what you're here for. Maria sat upright in her chair, and if she ignored her appearance, she really had a little bit of the momentum of a saint at this time.

Ari glanced at Aljet and saw that he was also looking at himself. He couldn't help but shake his head, turned to Sophia and asked, "Are you really Sophia's Holy Maiden?"

"Aren't you already sure?" asked Maria, faintly.

"Always hear what you admit in person. Ari said with a smile.

"That's right, I'm the Sophia Holy Maiden you call me, do you want me to prove it?" asked Sophia.

Ari said: "No, we are here to ask you about some old adult things, if it is convenient for you, please let us know, you can ask for any request." ”

"Just ask. Sophia nodded.

Ari thought for a moment and asked, "We want to know why the person who competed with you for the Holy Maiden back then had no news recorded in the temple at all, and why Archbishop Maximus went to the Barak Kingdom. ”

Sophia did not answer, but fell silent, and after a moment, asked, "Have you asked Archbishop Maximus?" ”

"Nope. Ari shook his head.

"Then I can't answer you, these things you shouldn't know. ”

Sophia refuses firmly, and it is clear that it will be difficult for Ari to get information from her until he has her trust.

After thinking for a while, Ari directly had a showdown with Sophia and said: "The person who entrusted us, in order to investigate the matter of her mother, has joined the temple and become the new preparatory saintess, I think there is danger in this, so I want to help her, I think you gave up the saint status back then, it must have something to do with her, if you can help us, you can mention any conditions." ”

After Ari finished speaking, his eyes were firmly fixed on Sophia, Yelena's affairs must be kept absolutely secret, if Sophia and they are not on the same side, he will never let Sophia contact any outsiders.

Who knew that after Sophia heard this, her expression suddenly became extremely frightened, and she shouted loudly: "Stop her, never let her become a saint!"

Ari hurriedly set up a magic array to prevent the news from spreading.

At the same time, his brows furrowed deeply, Sophia's reaction was beyond her expectations, any reaction was right, but why fear?

But Sophia's mental power fluctuated violently, and she only knew that she grabbed Ari and kept shouting to stop her.

Seeing this, Eri immediately cast a soothing spiritual magic, but even the spiritual magic lost its effect, no, it still had a little effect, although Sophia was still shouting in her mouth, but the movements in her hand stopped.

"What to do?" said Ari, looking at Algert.

"You decide, you're better at it. Although Aljet was in a hurry, he also knew that this kind of thing was more reliable for Ari.

Ari nodded, and directly made a slumber magic, then helped Sophia and walked to the room.

"You...... What are you doing here?" Algert looked shocked as he watched Eri's movements.

Seeing his expression, Ari's face suddenly darkened: "Can you adults not be so dirty in their minds!"

Algert snorted and asked rhetorically, "Then why did you knock her out, isn't that what, and then threaten her?"

Hearing this, Ari glanced at him, and suddenly asked happily, "Are you willing to make a little sacrifice for the sake of Elena?" ”

"Sacrifice ...... Sacrifice?" Algert looked at Ari dumbfounded, his mouth growing.

Ari nodded cautiously: "That's right, you also know, he already knows about Yelena, and in order for her not to divulge secrets, he must make her his own." ”

"But I'm ...... Elena...... I" Algert was a little incoherent in a hurry, and in general, of course, he would not pay attention to Ari, but this matter was about Yelena, and even directly related to life and death.

Ari shook his head and sighed: "It seems that you don't really love Sister Elena, real love should be able to give everything for the other party, as long as she is happy, she is willing to be a spare tire." ”

"True love should be something you can give for each other......" Aljet repeated Ari's words, and he was stupid for a while.

After a moment, his gaze shifted to Sophia's bucket-like waist and he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

"Over to you. With a gentle push, Sophia fell onto Algert's arm, and Algert subconsciously caught her.

"Over to you. Ariel said hehehe.

"Huh?" Alrett looked at Ari, a little confused.

"Don't you want to?" said Ari, frowning at him.

"I ...... For Elena's sake, I ...... I do!" Algert said, and Sophia picked up the two of them and walked to the room.

Algert had just put Sophia on the bed, when he suddenly saw Ari coming in, and couldn't help but ask, "Why are you coming in?"

"I'll come in and have a look. Ari said with a smile, took out a melon from the space ring, put it on his hand and nibbled on it.

"You, you get out!"

"What am I going out for? I can't think you're trying to do something bad, no, don't you......" Ari looked at Aljet in shock.

"Didn't you tell me to do that?" Algert was a little annoyed.

"I'm just asking you to help her in, and when she's sober, I'll make her one of my own. ”

"How can you become your own person when you're sober?" Algert looked at him with the eyes of a fool.

Ari looked back at him with the same look, and then said happily: "Brother is righteous, righteous is okay with Jinlan or something, or you can recognize a godmother or something." ”

Algert was speechless for a moment, then quickly reacted, gritted his teeth and looked at Ari, and said, "You fool me!"

"Whoever has the kung fu to trick you, okay, I'm going to remove the sleeping technique on her, you get out of the way. Ari said, pulling Aljet aside.

"Uh-huh......"

A flash of magic flashed, and Sophia let out a muffled grunt and woke up from her slumber.

When she saw the surrounding situation clearly, she was suddenly at a loss, how could she lie on the bed.

Erile said hehehe: "Holy Maiden Sophia, your emotions are a little excited, and I am forced to do this, I hope you don't mind." ”

"Emotional?" Sophia clutched her head, and the scene that had taken place quickly flashed through her head.

After a long time, Sophia suddenly raised her head and asked with difficulty, "Do you have to know the truth of the year before you stop her?"

Ari nodded without hesitation, "That's right, unless we are sure that it is not good for her to know the truth, we will choose to stop her, otherwise, we have no reason to stop her from learning the truth about her mother's disappearance, which is the right of every child." ”

Sophia fell silent again, and after a moment, she spoke: "Back then, things were like this......"
