Chapter 38: Master

Xia Li ran to the door of the mirror gallery and tried to break inside, but was quickly stopped by the guards. I could only sit depressedly on the stairs in front of the door, watching the rising sun being swallowed up by dark clouds little by little, and the sky sprinkled with drizzle. Just as she counted the sixth stupid bird flying by in the sky, the sliding door "clanged" open, and Evan and Eru Lomei walked out of the Hall of Mirrors one after the other, stopping at the end of the stairs.

"Cousin......"

The priest girl hurriedly stood up and turned back, looked up at the 'witch' who was high above, said hello timidly, and then looked at Evan, her eyes full of anticipation.

"This kid seems to be wary of me...... Forget it, time will clarify everything, since you don't like it here, you can take her and leave. ”

Eru Lomme stood at the top of the stairs, looking at her condescendingly, two long sideburns hanging from her ears to her chest swaying gently in the breeze. She stood gracefully like a sycamore, her snow-white dress seemed to dissolve the gloom, and the slightly dim corridor brightened.

"Then I took my leave. ”

Evan politely bowed to her, walked down the stairs, took the priest's girl's stiff hand, and turned to the corridor leading to the outer court.

“......”

Watching the backs of the two of them disappear from view, Eru Lomei slowly lowered her head and sighed softly, her eyes glancing to the side with complicated eyes:

"Is that the look of a human being? the eyes of an unknown creature, what did Ozmandis instill in her!?"

————————

The carriage drove through the drizzly streets, and the morning sun squeezed out half of its head through the gaps in the dark clouds, and the light filled the clouds, forming a wonder of red clouds.

Xia Li leaned on Evan's shoulder, her body swaying slightly with the wheels, and the glow passed through the car window and draped over her white dress and short hair, making her nervous mind slightly calmer.

"Why are you so afraid of her?"

His fingers ran through her hair, and he asked, for some unknown reason.

"I don't know ...... either"

The priest girl shook her head, a trace of fear flashed in her eyes, and she subconsciously curled up and leaned on the other party's arm:

"Actually, I know the high priest...... Wrong...... What the thief told me was a fabrication. But in the face of her, I still feel very scared...... An indescribable feeling. It was like an instinctive reaction of my body taking precedence over my consciousness...... Very special. ”

"Could it be a factor in the Holy Book of Hades?"

Ivan hugged her petite body, connected the situation of the two, and patiently analyzed:

Although there is a theological concept of the unity of light and dark, in reality no one can do it. On the contrary, it is normal for the forces of light and darkness to clash with each other, and perhaps when the two forces get closer, they will instinctively repel each other. The amount of light in her body is too strong, and your netherworld power is very weak in comparison, which is why this instinctive sense of fear appears. ”

"Like...... That's how it goes. ”

She nodded, slowly closing her eyes in the jolt.

"Brother Wang...... Cousin...... What kind of person is she?"

The moment she closed her eyes, everything about Eru Romei in the memory of the priest girl formed a picture of a very different style, and the chaos of rivalry spread out in her mind.

"I don't know. ”

Evan shook his head slightly, lifted the corner of the curtain, and looked at the royal court that was gradually moving away:

"For now, she's a dangerous person, capable of holding up this country, and ready to abandon us for the sake of profit. But...... Anyone in a position is actually this face, and we have to do what we have to do and then think about other things. ”

“......”

The priest girl did not speak, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she seemed to be asleep.

——————————

The carriage was in front of the square of the Hades Temple, and as soon as Evan took Xia Li's hand and stepped out of the carriage, two Holy Sect soldiers ran forward with a large chariot and put it on their shoulders. The group stepped into the drizzle, and the black limousine turned and ran to the stables.

At this time, the temple of Hades had been renovated and had regained some of its majesty, with high walls as hard as iron under the dark clouds, and spires on the terraces of grapes, like granite groves.

The door in the shape of the beast's mouth opened hideously, oozing light from the inside out, and Charlie followed Evan towards the temple, slowing her pace and staring up at the black sanctuary.

It sits on top of the stone staircase of six trapezoidal terraces, as if suspended in mid-air, with an indescribable majesty and majesty, obscuring half of the sky.

The Holy Cult army recruited from Ozmandis surrounded it, standing heavily armed under the eaves, short swords and spears in their hands. The team was also mixed with depressed-looking craftsmen, who seemed to be ready to rush to work at dawn, but had to retreat because of the rain.

The temple complex as a whole has a solemn and cold style, which is completely inconsistent with the aesthetics of the flower girl, but when Xia Li saw it for the first time, she liked it very much. It's like love at first sight in the dark, and I just feel that every brick and tile, grass and tree here is in line with my taste.

"Charlie?"

Ivan didn't follow when he heard the footsteps of the priest girl, but when he turned around, he found that she was standing stupidly in the rain.

"Brother Wang!?"

Xia Li saw him stop in front of the beast's mouth, looking at the foyer that seemed to swallow the earth, suddenly became elated, bathed in the drizzle and raised her right hand:

"Is this our home!?"

“......”

Evan was stunned for a moment by the sudden nonsense of the priest girl, refused with his heart, and couldn't help but smile:

"Yes, this is our home. ”

The cousin's current attitude is already friendly, and her mother is also on her way to pick it up, and Xia Li, a cheap sister, is very obedient and sensible in front of him...... If you ignore the aliens and the overly scary layout here, then it can really be considered a warm home.

......

"That's great!"

Like a joyful swallow, Charlie wandered around the living room in the back courtyard of the temple, touching this and that, as if she loved every furnishing

"Your requirements are too low, and you're still renovating. Evan stood by the door with his hands on his chest, looking helpless.

"The old also has the benefits of the old!"

The priest girl immediately straightened her face, raised her fingers, and said solemnly:

"The room is so old, it fits the layout of the outside of the temple, if it is made like a royal palace, it can't be regarded as a temple of the Hades!"

"In that case...... Let's keep it that way. Seeing that she thought about it like this, Evan gave up the idea of renovation.

"Really?"

Xia Li showed a look of surprise and delight.

"Of course. ”

He walked up to the priest girl, held up her pretty face with one hand, and said seriously: "You are the heir of Hades, everything here belongs to you, and I am just a manager." ”
