Chapter 407: Esther of Tirulag

Because of the geographical location of the Supreme Light Plateau, Joan of Arc can only leave the plateau by airship if she wants to travel, but what she is trying to do this time cannot be revealed, so she disguised herself and turned into an ordinary temple believer, came to pay homage to the Supreme Light Temple, and then left the Plateau Temple in an ordinary commercial airship, and the people who can come here are only the most devout believers, but no one can find out that the person wearing the cloak standing on the side of the airship and looking into the distance at this moment is usually the saint who is high up and does not eat the fireworks of the world。

"Before, I always wanted to get the real sense of **, when we were young, we were favored by the nobles, thinking that with our beauty we could have no worries about food and clothing, ** at ease, but in the end we found that we were just playthings in the eyes of the nobles, and then our two sisters carefully planned, wanting to escape from there, but sister, you were shot through the heart by an arrow, although you were rescued by Xiuyi, but we fell into another trouble," Speaking of this, Joan of Arc sighed and looked at the clouds in the distance that seemed to be moving and motionless, "Later, we broke free from Xiuyi's control, but found that ** did not come as scheduled, because there was still a so-called handle"

"Sometimes, I just think, life in the world, where there will be a real **, insight into the rules of the world, always one ring on another ring, we left this, but fell into that, even if it is a true God, it is not necessarily a complete **, so ah, if it is not for fear of being persecuted by Xiuyi, it is also a good choice for our sisters to continue to be this saint. ”

"Hmm~~ Sister, you usually don't speak, every time you see the clouds, you will say a lot, if you let those believers of your hear, you will definitely be surprised that your jaw will fall hey, you flick your forehead, won't it hurt yourself?"

"Yes, yes, I want to play too!"

β€œβ€β€•β€•

"Oh my God, it's either a temple airship or a sin, my delicate body, finally I don't have to endure the breath of a tormented airship. ”

After a long journey across almost the entire Faerun voyage, Joan of Arc took her sister and finally came to the destination, Tirulag, as for why she knew that Esther was here, the reason is very simple, as they said before, as long as they are stained with the power of the temple, don't want to get rid of it for the rest of their lives, if they don't look for this traitor before, it is not necessary, after all, the temple with a big family business disdains to do this kind of thing that kills the bottom people, so it is a little too petty, but this time, Joan of Arc has to use magic to search for this woman because she wants to find clues from Esther's body

However, seeing that her sister didn't pay attention to her at all, Nilou, who had always been chattering, said to herself, "Sister, should we go and see the legendary Sky Mirror first, because it was too small at the last Mass, we didn't come here to see this beautiful scenery that is famous all over the world." ”

"Little fool, it's July, and there's nothing to see in the Sky Mirror," Joan of Arc finally couldn't stand her sister's nagging, and replied a little helplessly, of course, at this time she also bought a few beautiful ornaments on the street, usually as a saint, but she rarely came out and walked, "That scenery must wait until November to March of the following year." ”

β€œβ€

Tirulag should be regarded as one of the few tourist cities in the world of Ferron, of course, most of the people who can come here to travel are nobles and capable people, but ordinary civilians don't have that opportunity, they can't afford to sit on the airship, walking, I'm afraid they will be eaten by the monster before they reach Tirulag, but that's it, in fact, after so many years of propaganda by the Harpists League, intentionally or unintentionally, it can be regarded as a crowded place, especially from November to March as Joan of Arc said, hotels, restaurants, bars, ** Businesses like the hospital are very busy.

And after being pulled out of the Buddha's secret art by Don Quixote, Esther really came here to settle down, and opened a hotel with the money that Don Quixote gave her, and because she is a middle-level knight, she has strong combat effectiveness, and no one dares to annoy this single beautiful girl, of course, after gradually getting familiar with this woman, I found that she is actually not so terrible, and she looks a little wild, the only curiosity is that this woman is in her thirties and almost forty years old, and she has always been single, and there seems to be no man around her――

"Hostess, check out," a man dressed as an adventurer came to the counter on the first floor and placed the key to the room on the table.

"Well," Esther, who seemed a little unconscious, picked up the keys and hung them back on the back wall, "thank you for your patronage, one gold and four silver coins." ”

"Why is it so expensive?"

"You bastard brought a woman over last time and collapsed all the beds in the hotel, do you think I forgot?"

"Hehehe. Obviously, this adventurer who laughed a few times should be a frequent visitor here, and of course it may be because she was attracted by Esther's appearance, after all, among ordinary people, she is quite temperamental.

"I said," Seeing Esther reach out and grab the coins, the adventurer glanced at the ring on Esther's right ring finger with some gossip, "The boss lady has been carrying this ring for so many years, why haven't I seen the boss?"

Because she is a middle-level knight, her appearance has not changed much after five or six years, and Esther raised the fingers of her right hand to look at the space ring that she disguised, although in fact, she has always brought it as a wedding ring, and after a long time, she stuffed the coins in her hand into the pocket on her body, "Dead, dead for several years." ”

"Dead?" the adventurer leaned on the counter and laughed a few times, "It's been so long, don't you want to find another man to marry?"

Esther glanced at the adventurer obliquely, "I forgot to tell you, he was hacked to death by me because he was looking for a woman outside, and I cut off the pile of before I hacked him to death." ”

"Oops!" Hearing Esther's murderous words, the hippie-smiling adventurer seemed to feel a chill in his crotch, and left the hotel with an embarrassed face, but accidentally almost bumped into a man who had just walked near the hotel

"Knight's inn", Joan of Arc, who was too lazy to bother with a little adventurer, looked up at the sign hanging on the inn, "What an interesting name?" Obviously, it was her sister Nilou who was talking now.

"A single woman must always be strong so that she can't be bullied," Joan of Arc pushed the door open, and the doorbell hanging inside rang.

"Welcome," said Esther, who was a part-time greeter of the owner, with a smile on her face, and although she said that the man was wearing a thick cloak and could not see what was inside, she did not care who this man was, and that it would be nice to give her money, although Don Quixote had given her a large sum of gold coins, and in fact she never bothered to eat or drink.

"I want a quiet room," Joan of Arc, who lowered her head, said lightly, "the voice is still so cold, stay one night." ”

"Okay," Esther turned to look for a moment, and took off a key in the corner of the fourth floor of the inn, "go up the stairs, at the end of the fourth floor, on the sunny side is your room, a silver coin a night, pay half first." ””

"Can you send me up?" Joan of Arc slowly raised her head, "I'm a road idiot. ”

"Da!" The key in Esther's suspended hand fell on the table, and the whole person couldn't help but take a few steps back, one hand subconsciously held on to the chair, as a former believer in the Sun Temple, how could she forget this face

However, today's Esther is no longer the little girl of the year, her life has been up and down, and she even brushed shoulders with death, she quickly adjusted her mentality, and the excitement of Fang Cai was just because she saw the supreme ruler of the temple was a little unbelievable, or that sentence, the temple wanted to kill herself, and she would not send the holy woman to appear, she was still paying attention to world events very well, and the current temple did not have a pope, and the holy woman was half a pope, thinking of this, she took a few deep breaths and called softly, " Michelle, help me take a look, I'll send this guest upstairs. ”

"Yes, master"-

"Very nice hotel," Jeanne d'Arc didn't bother to put on her cloak, but took off her hat, "it seems you've been doing well all these years." ”

After gently closing the door, Esther shrugged, "Don't you know what the Holy Maiden is looking for me, or has the temple decided to execute me as a traitor?"

"Don't be nervous," Joan of Arc sat down gently on the soft **, "I came to you to ask you some questions, and after that, you can still live your current life, of course, provided that you can't lie to me." ”

"Yes, Holy Maiden," Esther had the last of her trepidation after hearing her promise, and it was clear that the Holy Maiden did not care to deceive herself into such a small role.

"Do you remember Don Quixote?"

"Don Quixote?" Esther nodded slightly, it was her last mission, and it was also the one that made her almost unrecoverable, "You know, a mage, very powerful." ”

"What do you know about him?"

Esther shook her head slightly, "I don't know anything, the task assigned to me by Archbishop Lantes at that time was only to cooperate with the Divine Punishment Knight to assassinate the convict who might be a genius knight, and as for that mage, he was only killed halfway, and I didn't receive any mission about him." ”

Joan of Arc nodded slightly, it was still easy to judge whether Esther was a lie in her language with her current strength, "How did the confinement of your soul disappear?"

After a while, Joan of Arc slowly asked this question, obviously, this is the reason why she dared to see Esther with her true face, she who had personally broken the soul bonding rope could perceive this magical secret technique to a certain extent, and with Xiuyi's caution, the people he used would inevitably be subjected to this secret technique, but Esther didn't, and it gave people a feeling of escape, which is not Xiuyi's style.

"I" for this question, Esther instinctively wanted to refuse to answer, but she knew very well that if she told the truth, there was still a glimmer of life, if she didn't say it, it would be certain death, as for how Joan of Arc knew about the existence of that secret technique, Esther was no longer in the mood to guess, after all, her own life was going to be gone, besides, she was also the supreme ruler of the temple, and it was natural that she found some things about that mysterious person," A mysterious person approached me and asked me to participate in the destruction of Skylight Town, and I was responsible for sowing alchemical potions in the wilderness.

"This woman is really interesting, her story could be written into a knight's novel," said Nilou as she listened to Esther, who was there to tell everything, "and she is really lucky to be alive until now." ”

"I'm more concerned about the man who can untie the soul, and the woman's intuition tells me that he seems," after communicating with his sister in the sea of consciousness, Joan of Arc looked at Esther and said, "What does he look like, what is his name? Do you remember?"

"It's ordinary, nothing peculiar, forgive me for the barren name, he told me his name was Eagle Goodman, but I don't think that's his real name. ”

"Iger Goodman?" (To be continued.) )
