"So the group of black-armored cavalry who attacked you on the border before came were instructed by Herodotus?"

Ilea reacted and continued along this line of thought, "As you said before, the Church still has an armed force in the shadows, and this armed force has been following Herodotus' orders.

"Well, that would explain why High Priest Martina was so wary of Herodotus, and called him dangerous.

"Wait, the High Priest of Vis is dead there...... "The female lord gasped, "Is it true that Herodotus did it, as High Priest Martina said, but Noble Priest Reeves is not his teacher?" He even killed his own teacher, is it so cruel?! ”

"It seems that everyone in the church underestimated him except for the teacher, even High Priest Reeves."

Adele said, and at the same time, her expression moved, and she remembered another thing, "The person who kidnapped Mary may also be Herodotus's man." ”

When the former priest first came to the territory of the Shuangxiu Church, not counting the lizardmen who could not communicate, the first thing he encountered was the little maid.

After that, Adele inexplicably became Clara's lingua franca teacher, and the two also played poker together until Li Yu returned.

And when Adele returned here for the second time, she was at the lowest point in her life, and her heart was full of confusion.

The little maid not only comforted her, but also pleaded with Li Yu to let her stay.

As a result, the relationship between the two has grown better, and after Adele decided to settle in the territory of the Shuangxiu Church, it was Clara who helped her integrate here.

So after Clara was kidnapped, the former priest was anxious.

Every once in a while, he would ask Li Yu for news of the little maid, but more than a month has passed, and there has been no clue about Clara from Tom's side.

They had searched three towns as they had traveled southeast, and Tom had made a number of friends, but none of them had seen the two men he had described.

Now Tom is leading people to towns further south, trying his luck there.

But no one thought that the conflict that broke out in the Silver Moon Church at the moment made everyone unexpectedly see the possibility of rescuing the little maid.

Including Li Yu, the spirits of the three people in the room were shocked, but soon, Miss Rabbit threw out another question, "What do you say Herodotus did he kidnap Mary?" ”

…………

Clara asked this question to herself many times, and she even asked Ruby, who was arranged to play with her and take care of her.

It's a pity that the latter can't say why.

So the little maid could only continue to hold on to this doubt, and stayed in her new residence.

In all fairness, the living conditions in this place are quite good, even better than when she was in the green field, she has lived here for more than a month, and the meals she eats every day are not the same.

And every once in a while, there are new clothes to wear, and Ruby accompanies her to relieve her boredom.

The latter came a few days later than her, but he was very gentle, spoke very nicely, and told many strange stories.

Especially when she imitates Naimama to speak, Clara can always be amused, and the two quickly become friends.

In short, except for the fact that you can't go out, everything here can be called perfect.

But Clara still misses the green fields in the distance, the people of that land, and for the first time in her life, the girl tastes homesickness.

"Is that place really that good?" Ruby wondered.

The little maid nodded, "Yes, yes, if you have the opportunity, you must come to the green field, and I will take you to play." ”

"But...... There's everything here, why should we go back? Ruby was puzzled.

"There's one thing missing here."

"What's that?"

"Vitality, that vigorous vitality, is like a sprout from a tree, a flower blooming by the roadside, a baby's teeth...... And all this was brought by the prophet Merlin. ”

"Hearing you say that, it feels like he must be a great man."

"He's really amazing, except when it's pushing me to study. The Prophet was unlike anyone I had ever met before, and before I met him, I had always thought that the smartest and greatest man in the world was Sir Ruth, or Lady Ona. ”

"What's the difference between Merlin and them?"

"Merlin is more interesting," Clara said without thinking, "he's not from our world, he dresses, he speaks, he thinks...... It's all different from the people on the continent before, oh yes, he also has all kinds of weird toys. ”

"Toys?"

"Or holy relics, well, and magical beasts, my favorite magical animal is a little frog."

"It's like the kind that you can see everywhere along the river."

"It's pretty or the same, but it's prettier, it has red eyes and claws, and more importantly, it disappears from time to time."

"Disappearing means running out?"

"I thought so at first, but then I kept my eyes on it and finally confirmed that it just disappeared out of thin air."

"Ha, that's pretty unusual."

"Not only that, but what's even more strange is still to come, Merlin said that when the little frog was gone, it ran back to the kingdom of God, and when it came back, it would bring some specialties of the kingdom of God, all kinds of specialties, much bigger than its body, God knows how it brought it back."

"Sounds ...... It's like, it's like a fairy tale. Ruby looked envious, "I can now understand why you want to go back, living with someone like that must be fun, every day is fresh." ”

"What about you?"

"What?"

"I said what your life was like before, you don't seem to have told me yet." The little maid blinked.

"Oh, my life has always been boring, I was raised to please men since I was a child, and I've been doing it ever since.

"I was taught to never say what I really thought in front of men, to follow their commands...... That's the only way I can live.

"Your childhood was too miserable, Ruby."

Clara sympathized, "Before I met Merlin, I was a maid in the Arias family, although I am not free, but the Arias family is still very good to the subordinates, at least I can eat enough, and I don't have to be cold in winter."

"Miss Ilea is also a nice person, kind-hearted, and kind to us, and I guess that's why Prophet Merlin was sent to her on Saturday."

"I can't completely agree." "I don't think I had a miserable childhood, and I've learned a lot of skills, like lying. ”

Ruby smirked, "I'm a master liar now, and when I lie, even the most shrewd man can't see it." ”
