Chapter 2: The Darkness of Misunderstanding and Fear
The noise of heavy rain woke Lin Yan up, and he sat up from the bed suddenly. Reach for the show-stealing dictionary. Lin Yan wanted to read the contents of this dictionary last night, but he fell asleep after reading the first paragraph, but he also happened to throw it in the corner of the bed to avoid getting wet by the leaking rain.
"If you count the stigma as a pool, the runes are the water in it, and the runes that come with the dwelling already determine the power you have. Lin Yan took a cloth and wiped his face, and then recalled what he saw last night, it still sounds quite interesting, maybe it can be used as his own pastime reading in the future.
The rain was pouring down, and I hope it doesn't last until the evening for the send-off feast.
I found a piece of the door panel that fell casually, and it felt like it could be a little less rainy. A new outfit was about to be drenched in heavy rain, which also made him feel uncomfortable. But that didn't stop him from going to church. Although the send-off banquet is in the evening, it is always better to arrive early than late...... From another point of view, at least as a friend of Long Ke, it is also appropriate to arrive early.
Today is the seventh day of the week, and on this day the Goddess of the Elements creates the element of "nothingness", symbolizing the completion of the creation of all the elements. Therefore, the believers of the Elemental Goddess will rest on this day, and this has also become a rest day for the Orison Empire. People keep track of time by days off. In this way, there will be no embarrassment of running into Long Ke, because the church school is also closed today.
Lin Yan walked into the church, and all around him were already lit by some kind of bright lamp, which was cleaner and easier to use than candles, and it was also one of the more common magic props among ordinary people. Those magic props that are convenient for life are deliberately designed to be used by ordinary people. According to Lin Yan's guess, it was for those nobles who had money but did not have stigmata to play with, which was really a luxury.
"Come so early," Mr. Doyle leaned against the staircase on the second floor, saw Lin Yan who was drenched in soup, and said jokingly: "Please show your invitation letter, I want to confirm your identity." ”
Lin Yan felt a bad taste, and at the same time took out the small card, and the magic engraved on it shone brightly: "Since the person who read the invitation is you, and I was invited by you, why do you have to make it so complicated......"
"Let's take a formality. Doyle nodded without even looking at it, looking at Lin Yan's slightly depressed expression, so he comforted: "Okay, I don't think your friends want to see you crying like this." Help me set up some utensils, I'm going to have a good meal tonight, you should be tired of eating brown bread for days in a row. ”
"How do you know I eat black bread every day?"
"Last month, I saw you buy black bread from Kaiye, and last week too, I think you should live on black bread, in order to save money. Doyle winked at Lin Yan: "Although I can't help much, I like you to live a little better." ”
I have to say that if it weren't for Doyle's help, Lin Yan wouldn't have been able to get such a simple but well-paid job as cleaning the church.
"Thank you. Lin Yan nodded, "Okay, then I'll relive the feeling of working, anyway, I'm going to continue working tomorrow!"
Setting the cutlery is still relatively simple, at least better than wiping the exterior windows on the sixth floor. Lin Yan thought so.
As time passed, many people gradually came to the church, most of them were about the same age as Lin Yan, but Lin Yan didn't know them. Most of the reasons are because Lin Yan doesn't like to make friends very much, and the other reason is that they are scars. With the passage of age, the level of consciousness between the scar and ordinary people, the three views will gradually change, if the common topic is not together, how to know one. The rest of the people also have the Pope, or the mayor of the town. To be honest, Lin Yan was not surprised at all, he just walked towards the door in a daze, waiting for someone to arrive.
Long Ke was wearing his usual green cotton coat, and there was no place to get wet on his body - presumably some kind of waterproof magic. With that trademark smile, he greeted everyone in the venue, except Lin Yan. He stood there, glanced at Lin Yan from a distance, and then went to talk to the others.
"......" suddenly didn't even feel in the mood to eat, so he took a piece of cake to eat at random, trying to hide the tears in his eyes. Sure enough, don't you want to say goodbye well? Lin Yan was a little depressed.
"How long are you going this time. One of them asked Long Ke.
"I'll be back when I'm free, and we'll be together when the time comes. ”
"Please, you're a gifted 'Six-Pointed Star Positive Elemental Stigmata', and we really can't keep you in this place. The other also chatted with Long Ke.
"Smack!" And at this time, Lin Yan slapped the plate on the table fiercely, then stood up and slowly walked towards Long Ke: "your holy stigma!"
In an instant, this change made the people around him stunned, and the scene was cold and became very embarrassing. Even Long Ke's face in front of him became gloomy: "If you don't want to stay, you can leave." He was silent for a moment, then said lightly.
"I ......" A sense of grievance came to his heart, and the memories of the past could fill his brain, Lin Yan rushed out of the door, rushing into the rain like a helpless child. And ran as hard as he could, to the depths of the town.
I don't know how long I ran, so long that even Lin Yan himself felt tired. The rain washed over his body, his clothes, and his spirit. The dark night has also swallowed the whole world. He stood under a tree, half-kneeling, unable to distinguish between rain and tears in his eyes.
"What a broken stigma!" he roared, and cried aggrievedly, curled up in a ball. The rain did not abate in the slightest. It was so dark that I couldn't see the lights of the town: "All of you are so self-righteous! I'm the only one left alone! I've lost my parents, and now even you!" he fell, leaning against an old tree, feeling everything cold.
And just then, he heard a strange roar. From the darkness in the trees, a pair of red eyes emerged.
Night Leopardmon, this powerful creature that only appears at night, is one of the magical beasts with the power of "Trace". It has dark elements flowing through its body, so it will be extremely powerful in the dark. They are afraid of light, but they are at least as strong as the Tracers in the pure darkness.
Lost parents, departed friends, and threats to life. Countless emotions pressed on Lin Yan's body, and a sense of despair surged up, making him feel a touch of pain.
