Chapter 32: Lending Your Shoulder
It was Jerry who suddenly appeared and asked again, which stunned Catherine, and she showed a look of disbelief and an unspeakable embarrassment. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
However, in fact, Jerry is still a little dizzy now, don't look at the question he just asked, but in fact, he didn't react at all, and he didn't know what was going on in front of him.
Not long ago, he was in the Holy Light Library, looking forward to striking while the iron was hot, wanting to use the unique environment there to advance to the second level of the Believer, but suddenly he felt a whirlwind of the world. This feeling was not unfamiliar to Jerry, it was exactly what the Library of Light looked like when it was about to teleport people out, and he had experienced it once last time.
But the problem is that the admission qualification that Catherine helped him get has not expired, and the time of the day is twenty-four hours, but how long has he been in it in total, has there been twelve hours? Jerry didn't react at that moment, but he remembered it in a daze, it seemed that there were really twelve hours, and it seemed to be exactly twelve hours.
"Well, she doesn't mean twelve hours a day, does she? But where is it? Sounds familiar?"
This was the first thing Jerry said after standing firmly under his feet, and then he saw the small ice field, and then saw the beautiful but petite figure under the ice lotus tree that made people want to pity at first sight, so there was the scene just now.
Jerry only realizes that Catherine is in a state of problem after he shouts the word "Holy Maiden", which he has never seen before. Weak as water, with tears on his face...... Was this the domineering, murderous, and cunning Catherine he knew?
Catherine, who was taken aback, was equally shocked, even more so than Jerry's surprise.
Because the reason why she came here was because of the origin of this ice lotus tree, and secondly, because of what happened here, that first encounter.
After nearly ten years, she met her teacher again, and met the woman who treated her like a daughter and was once regarded as a mother. But they couldn't say a word between them, and she knew very well that the figure that appeared in the library of holy light was not the teacher's real body, but just a magical figure left by the other party in advance by incredible means.
This is also the reason why she clearly saw the other party at that time, obviously close at hand, and the magic barrier that prevented people from breaking in would not isolate the sound, but she didn't shout a word.
She knew that it was just the shadow of Sophridara, and if this teacher of hers wanted to say something to her, she didn't need to come closer, or even disarm her invisibility magic, and the shadow left by the other party would come and meet her.
This is her teacher, Sophridara, a kind, mysterious, and powerful former High Priest of the Cult of Light, the founder of the First Temple, and one of the founders of the Temple of the Holy Mountain in the past. There is no doubt about her strength, Catherine when she was a child would only think that the teacher was very powerful, but as she grew up, with the rapid growth of her own strength and vision, the more she felt that her teacher's strength could not be fathomed.
Just as Sophridar could leave a shadow to see Jerry after a long time, she must have foreseen her presence as well. But since the shadow didn't say anything, it means that the teacher didn't specifically explain anything to her, and this meeting was just like seeing a painting and bumping into a mirror and a mirage.
But how could the teacher who raised her like her mother and taught her all kinds of knowledge have nothing to say to her......
No matter how noble the status of the would-be saint is, and how strong Catherine herself is, she is still only a fourteen-year-old girl, and she can feel helpless and lonely at certain special moments.
It was as if now, when she came to the bottom of the ice lotus tree planted by Sofridara herself, she couldn't stop crying. But Catherine herself didn't know why, obviously she was thinking of her teacher, but the shadow that appeared in her vague tears was someone else.
A teenager who met her more than a year ago, but under this ice lotus tree, he can be regarded as a true acquaintance with her...... It's just that now they are reunited in this situation, and they see her most vulnerable and embarrassed.
"Are you alright?" Jerry frowned, his head was still a little dizzy, but it was much better than it had just been.
Catherine wanted to be tough, to reward him with a set of fire and ice combos like she had done before, but now she found that she couldn't be tough.
"I'm fine. Catherine turned to keep Jerry from seeing her reddened eyes.
"It's not like ah, if you say something, it's always better to say it...... Uh, wait, you're not trying to kill someone, are you?"
Suddenly seeing a crying girl, Jerry instinctively began to comfort her, but suddenly thought of a possibility, and couldn't help but shrink his neck.
Who is this poor weeping girl? Catherine!
She is a symbol of God's love in the eyes of people all over the world, always maintaining a gentle and sunny smile, who would have thought that she would have such a fragile side. It's nothing if no one sees it, but when she really has such a side, she happens to be seen by someone...... That's big news, isn't it?
Anyway, if he was Catherine, he definitely didn't want his ugliness to be spread. What is the most drastic means to put an end to this possibility, of course, is to kill people and destroy all witnesses.
Seeing Jerry's nervous appearance, Catherine was stunned at first, and then was so angry that her mouth was almost crooked.
She deliberately stretched out her hand, put on a vicious look, and said: "Okay, you say that I kill people and kill people, then I will destroy you now!" God's mercy ......."
"Don't!"
Jerry didn't see it well, and he didn't know where to react quickly, so he first thought that the spell that could call out the word "god" must be a super-large weapon of destruction that destroyed the world, how dare he let this girl really release it. He immediately rushed over with a brisk stride, and covered Catherine's mouth directly with one stretch of his hand.
With enough time to chant spells, the damage a priest can inflict is terrifying, and it's no laugh to destroy a team of warriors alone. But only if there is enough time.
"Uhhh
Catherine's mouth whined, and a pair of beautiful eyes like starry skies widened suddenly.
She couldn't tell why, obviously she was even more upset when she thought of this guy just now, but when she really met and heard the other party say two stupid words of comfort, her mind had quietly calmed down.
Of course, she didn't really want to release magic to kill people just now, she just wanted to scare Jerry, but she didn't expect this guy to make such a rude move.
Does he still have a sense of etiquette? Do you still know that she is a saint! Even if you speak politely, you dare to do it......
Catherine was stunned for a while, Jerry coughed dryly, and finally saw that Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden was clearly reciting a specious "spell" to scare herself, so she took a step back.
The night under the bright moon seemed to be quieter than before, Catherine looked at the ice lotus tree for a long time without speaking, and Jerry was like a pillar behind her.
"Is it true that you just said that it would be better to talk about your thoughts?" said Catherine suddenly.
It's been more than ten minutes just now, okay...... Naturally, Jerry wouldn't say that. He immediately nodded and said, "Of course, it will be better to say it than to have some one-size-fits-all truths." And not only that, in fact, when you want to cry, cry out loud and thoroughly, so that the emotions can be completely cathartic, and you will feel more comfortable. If you don't think there's anything you can do to wipe your tears, my shoulder can be borrowed from you, it's completely free, and it won't be ......."
As soon as this last sentence came out, Jerry wanted to slap himself in the mouth. Sure enough, Catherine's shoulders trembled, and she looked like she was about to have a seizure, and she turned around suddenly.
"Oops!"
Jerry was saying something bad, but Catherine, who was opposite him, bit her lip and walked over, and her voice was as thin as a mosquito but very clear: "Stand still." ”
