Ronald continued to follow Sister Afra.

For the clergy of the Church, morning prayer is a fairly formal religious activity, very different in nature from the morning service where knowledge is discussed.

Such a serious event.

It must be, or can only be done in a church.

After Ronald and Afra left the compound, the path of the monastery led almost straight to the center, and they walked towards the chapel in the center of the area.

- The monastery is, after all, a city district.

Limited by the number of monks living there.

It is not spatially realistic to want all the monks to complete their morning classes here at once.

According to the age of the monk here.

Those who came to the chapel for morning prayers were roughly divided into three batches.

The first to come were young monks who had reached adulthood and were not yet senile.

They were the first to rise up of the day, and at the same time to do the most of the daily work on this side of the monastery, so they were naturally the first to pray.

The second group of children who followed were children who had been living and studying in the monastery since childhood.

These children will only take on some simple daily tasks.

So after the young monks had prepared everything they needed for the morning prayers, they began the second batch.

The last group were the old people in the monastery.

When they finally arrive, they also review the results of the young friars' maintenance of the church during their morning prayers.

During this time period.

The few monks who failed to catch up with the first two batches will also follow the old people.

This act of being late, in the church outside the monastery, is already quite bizarre.

But in the soothing and gloomy atmosphere of the monastery.

No one is being held accountable for this kind of behavior.

There are even people who have been late many times, or have simply skipped the necessary rituals of the day.

Most of what they ushered in was not punished.

Instead, he was removed from the monastery and returned to the outside world, becoming a normal monastic life.

When Ronald followed Afra to the chapel.

The chapel was exactly the same as it was before he entered the temple trial.

The ancient and simple appearance has remained the same throughout history, as if it would not be eroded by anything.

Ronald and the little nun walk into the church.

Today, the preparation and maintenance of the church did not take the turn of the two of them. Once inside, they sat on the pews of the chapel in the order in which they entered.

The next step is to wait quietly for the morning prayer to begin.

During this period.

Ronald, naturally, did not forget to observe his surroundings.

There was still about half an hour before the prayer began, but the chairs in the chapel were almost two-thirds full.

In the absence of any human oversight and coercive measures, this is already quite efficient.

The scene in the chapel is in full view.

At this time, Ronald happened to notice something interesting.

The young monk who waits for the morning prayer does not talk to each other at this joint.

But the shift workers who are cleaning the church are not among them.

Ronald happened to be sitting on the side of the chapel.

So he was lucky enough to hear the discussion between two young monks who were cleaning the ground.

"It's rare, the cleaning of the church today has been increased from three to five times."

"It's rare, but after all, the priest of the Holy Throne and the priest of the Holy Throne came at the same time. Even those of us who choose to retreat should have the proper attitude to receive them. ”

"I'm not complaining...... Anyway, did you hear about that incident in the morning? ”

"What happened in the morning?"

"Oh, I see, you mean those guys who came out of church in the morning?"

"Isn't that weird? It's going to be closed in the evening, so how do you think they got out of church early in the morning? ”

"It has nothing to do with us!"

"But as is customary...... I was afraid that I suddenly figured something out, so I meditated in the church so much that I forgot to leave when the door closed. ”

"But I heard that there was no one here when it closed last night."

"What are you doing with all this nonsense? Maybe a few adults have tested some kind of powerful magic art. ”

"Think more and say less! Remember! ”

“……”

The discussion between the two young monks was only small talk after cleaning.

But the speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional.

For Ronald, who sat on the sidelines and listened to this conversation in its entirety.

This conversation is undoubtedly quite important information!

He immediately thought of the five guys from the [Nine Rings Secret Society].

The same encounterer who entered the temple trial, when Ronald was in the outside world, and the reconnaissance spell was still working.

The five people he perceived were in this small church.

Combined with the small talk of the two monks, he could conclude almost immediately!

Those few people who appeared in the church inexplicably must be the casters of the [Nine Rings Secret Society].

And unlike Ronald.

Probably because there is no official status in the Holy Capital.

After falling into the Temple Trials, they didn't have the identity of Ronald.

So......

It's easy to deal with these enemies.

As long as the upper echelons of the church are notified that someone has invaded, then these five spellcasters who have no way to cast spells will be in front of the Holy Capital, where the church is still at its peak.

What will happen?

“……”

Thinking of this, Ronald wanted to laugh.

The easiest way to deal with these people is already there, and the next thing is how to do it.

Direct reporting is quick and easy.

But Ronald had no intention of doing so.

Sitting silently on the pews of the chapel, he lowered his head slightly, hiding his contemplative gaze in the shadows.

It's too risky to report it directly – for Ronald himself.

After all, he can't use spells at the moment.

If he acts like this, if the people of the church are more cautious, Ronald himself will probably be exposed.

High-level people are not as easy to fool as the little nun Afra next to her.

Once there is any suspicion, a few simple spells can expose his identity as a nun with incomplete information.

“……”

"It's too dangerous to report directly, so you should be reminded in a more tactful way, and the content should be so urgent that the church people don't have time to worry about it."

Rona pondered the plan to trap the [Nine Rings Secret Society] spell casters.

It's during this time.

Three elders in gray robes walked out of the side door of the chapel and came to the bishop's seat.

"Close your eyes—take a deep breath—meditate—"

The man standing in the middle opened his mouth to lead the activities of the people of the chapel, and along with his opening, solemn and sacred music sounded in the ear chamber on the side of the chapel.

"Bow your head and shake hands—"

In the atmosphere of religious music, the elder in the middle spoke again:

"Dear parishioners,

As we walk through this world in a hurry, let us gather in this sacred place to offer our prayers for the day.

We are grateful for life and health.

In this time of prayer, we respectfully pray for guidance and mercy.

Almighty Father—

Please protect us from the temptations and curses of evil so that we can walk with you and treat others with integrity and kindness of heart.

Give them health, happiness and peace so that they can spend their days under your protection.

Please guide our children to become morally upright, loving and charitable people......"
