Chapter 39: An Invitation from Iris

"May the light keep you ......"

In a quiet and remote place in the backyard of the church, under a large tree that is not old or young, the earth is slightly raised.

In front of the bulging earthen bag, Sheena knelt on the ground, folded her hands and bowed her head to pray.

Although Roy asked not to use the ritual before his death, Sheena still wanted to do something to keep Roy's death from passing so easily.

An Ling watched from the side, didn't have any thoughts, and didn't say anything.

After reciting the prayer, Sheena stood up and said worriedly:

"I hope that when the City Lord's Mansion is renovated here, it will not touch the soil here."

An Ling shrugged his shoulders and said:

"No, the place we are looking for is very remote, even if they want to tear down the whole church, it will not affect this place."

"I hope so."

Sheena took a light breath and said:

"An Ling, I can leave this church, but I can't rest assured that the Demon Sealing Stone Tablet in the secret room will not be. The main building of the church can be torn down, but the Demon Sealing Stone cannot happen again. ”

"I'd like to fill in the entrance to the chamber before I leave, and do some demos to try not to make anyone find out."

This is a superfluous move, because others are coming for this stone tablet. Speaking of which, if Hina didn't bent on erecting the Demon Sealing Stone, the City Lord's Mansion wouldn't have made such a move.

But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't matter, if the despicable king wants to come here, what Hina's actions are meaningless. Green River City is going to be destroyed, but it's better now. Sheena had a reason to leave Green River City at this time, but it would allow her to avoid this catastrophe by chance.

With some thoughts flowing in his heart, An Ling smiled at Xina and said softly, "Okay, I'll help you." ”

"Thank you."

Sheena also smiled sweetly at An Ling.

……

After working hard for a while to cover up the passage of the church's secret room, Sheena hurried to make lunch and give it to the Iris adventurers. At the same time, he briefly told them about the situation in the church.

After hearing what happened, the red-haired girl Talia was immediately indignant and held up for the church.

"What! The City Lord's Mansion would actually do such a thing, it's disgusting! ”

"I don't understand either, Sheena sacrifices, there is no reason for the City Lord's Mansion to do this."

The blue-haired girl Maggie was also puzzled on the side.

Sheena smiled and said to them in a soft voice:

"It doesn't matter what the intentions of the City Lord's Mansion are, it's already a fact that this church has been banned, and An Ling and I will also leave here before tomorrow night, but I'm sorry to disturb you to recuperate."

"No, no, no, how could it be!"

Amy, the dark-haired girl on the side, quickly shook her hand and said:

"We were about to leave tomorrow, and it didn't affect it at all."

At this time, Maggie coughed, looked at Sheena, and asked:

"So Priest Sheena, where are you going when you leave here? Do you want to go back to your original monastery? ”

Hina shook her head, glanced at An Ling, and then said:

"I don't know where I'm going next, but shouldn't I go back to the monastery?"

"Won't you go back?"

Maggie narrowed her eyes.

"Yes, that's right!"

Suddenly, a warm smile appeared on Sheena's face and she said:

"I want to prepare a parting dinner tonight and invite you to it, would you like to come?"

"Dinner?"

Maggie tilted her head.

Sheena snorted, nodded and said:

"Just gone, I want to have a good time. So I wanted to prepare a dinner party tonight so that everyone would be happy and everyone would leave this place happy. ”

Talia's eyes lit up,

"Come, come, come! Of course we're coming, what kind of dinner is it, is it a barbecue dinner? ”

Hina smiled awkwardly and said, "I haven't decided what kind of dinner party it will be, but it's okay to have a barbecue dinner." ”

After speaking, she looked directly at An Ling.

An Ling blinked, coughed and said:

"The barbecue dinner was good, and I also liked the barbecue dinner, relaxed and happy."

"Then it's time for a barbecue dinner."

Sheena decided with a smile.

"You'll all be here then, right?"

Amy immediately replied:

"Hina sacrifice rest assured, the three of us will not be absent."

"Hmm."

Maggie nodded.

Sheena gracefully bowed and said:

"Okay, then An Ling and I will go to prepare for the dinner. I'll see you soon. ”

"I'll see you later."

An Ling shook his hand and left the room with Hina .

……

At night, the sky is full of stars under the black veil.

A roaring bonfire is lit in the backyard of the Green River City church, and various meat skewers sizzle around the bonfire, leaving fragrant and enticing droplets of oil. Bottles of fruit wine, which is actually a fruit juice drink, are lined up on one side, waiting to be opened.

The girls laughed and talked happily with each other, and the atmosphere was relaxed and beautiful.

An Ling sat on the side of the bonfire, holding a large piece of pork leg skewers, quietly barbecuing, unable and unwilling to participate in the girls' chat.

He found that although Hina seemed to be a quiet person, she was actually a talkative person, and she was now chatting with the girls of the Iris Adventure Group about various topics and pasts, naturally and fluently.

Putting aside the desire to destroy aroused by such a beautiful atmosphere, An Ling likes this kind of atmosphere very much, happy and happy, laughing and laughing, which is really good.

It's just that he has only been in this human world for a few days, and his knowledge of the human world is limited to the memories that come from that bard. I don't know how old I am when I sink into the abyss, and I don't have any chat skills, so he can't participate in such an occasion.

There is no desire to participate in them, no way to share their joy and joy.

"Anling, won't you tell us about your adventures?"

Suddenly, Hina shook her hand at An Ling.

An Ling blinked, then said with a smile:

"There's not much to say about my adventures, but a lot of the time when I'm on the adventures is boring and not as exciting as you think. Sheena, you'll know if you've ventured. ”

"Really? Then I'm going to try the adventure! ”

Sheena smiled jokingly.

At this time, Maggie's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked up and said to Sheena:

"Sheena, if you're feeling adventurous, how about joining our Iris Adventure Party? We've just left a support mage on our team, and we're in need of someone like you. ”

As soon as she spoke, there was a sudden silence around her, and both Talia and Amy stopped laughing and looked at Sheena fixedly.

Maggie glanced left and right, suddenly turned pale, stood up, stretched out his hand to Sheena, and said:

"Sheena Priest, this is a formal invitation, and I would like to invite you to be a part of our Iris Adventure Party. We look forward to having you as our partner. ”

Sheena opened her chin in surprise, then lowered her gaze.

She was silent for two seconds before she slowly said apologetically:

"I'm sorry, Miss Maggie, I'm afraid...... Unable to accept your invitation. ”

Maggie frowned suspiciously, and asked in a deep voice:

"Why?"

Hina took a breath, glanced at An Ling, raised her head and said:

"I, I want to have an adventure with An Ling next! I'm sorry. ”

"Huh?"

An Ling tilted his head, feeling a little puzzled.

He didn't have an idea where he was going next, what was Sheena doing with him, and besides, he was sure to stay in Green River City and wait for the despicable king to come.
