-1- Mel Olivia
Leave the affluent area and cross Maple Grove Boulevard.
Uniform, uniformly sized stone slabs paved the entire length of the road to a magnificent and towering church that is as gorgeous as St. Petersburg and Cologne Cathedral.
At this time, the church is brightly lit, orange and yellow electric lamps and candles complement each other, and the dim atmosphere of the evening cannot hide a trace of its light, like a lighthouse in the dark, always welcoming the lost lamb.
The evening breeze blows and rattles the maple trees around the church.
In the dense shade of the trees, priceless stiletto heels stepped up the steps in front of the cathedral square, and her bloated but extravagant goose-yellow court dress dragged to her ankles, and the wind blew silently, blowing her exaggerated velvet lady's hat almost over.
Mel Olivia, the daughter of a local nobleman in the second-tier city of Yord City.
Leave the mansion alone in search of redemption.
In the side room of the church, the candle flame burned quietly, and the melted wax oil slowly flowed down its slightly curved body, dripping onto the chassis, and in the cramped confessional room, the summer heat did not allow her to let go of a little of her aristocratic baggage.
The aristocratic etiquette she received from a young age told her that a lady should always be elegant.
You can't hurt the family's face outside, even if no one sees it.
She gently lowered her exaggerated hat and sat up in a dignified manner.
The hands are folded on top of each other's legs, and every move is full of nurturing.
"Lost Lamb, what can I, the lowly apostle of the Goddess, do to you?"
After hearing someone coming next door, an unhurried female voice came from the other side of the confessional room.
Her voice has no characteristic, except for lightness.
There was a black veil between the two, and no one could see anyone.
"Yes, Father, listen to me, I'm so confused now......"
Miss Olivia considered her mouth, as if every time she spoke, she needed to be thought through by her brain.
"You don't have to be restrained in front of the goddess, you just need to show the most essential you, she likes people's pure and simple appearance, now, relax ......"
Hearing the sound of the woman's deep breathing, the girl smiled slightly and said, "Can you tell me the reason why you are confused?" β
As if she had thought for a moment, and after organizing her language, Miss Olivia said slowly: "Father, I am eighteen years old this year, and I am old enough to marry and have children, but my father has betrothed me to another nobleman without asking me. β
"I don't like them, I'm married to a pig, lazy and cruel.
I couldn't imagine what the future would be, and my father's persecution was unbearable for me, what should I do? β
At the end, the girl felt a tremor in her voice, and she was afraid.
"Are you a believer in the goddess of light?"
The girl didn't solve her doubts immediately, but asked.
On the other side, the young woman shook her head and said, "No, I believe in the god of machines, because it is machines that bring wealth and prestige to our family, and so does our family. β
The girl resisted the desire to complain, and you, a believer of the Cult of the Mechanica, came to the confessional room of the Holy See to speak?
Did you get lost after reading the lack of moral navigation?
complained and complained, but the girl felt that a big business was coming, and she was suddenly reckless.
I don't know what kind of orb reward will be given to breaking a person's faith!
So he quickly adjusted his almost exposed tone, and pretended to be calm:
"Herein lies the problem, and it may have something to do with your faith, Lady Honor."
Miss Olivia showed a puzzled expression, does this have anything to do with faith?
She listened.
The girl spoke eloquently, and the tone was similar to that of the fortune-telling stick on the street:
"We all know that the Cult of the Machine God is a religion that believes in the god of machines, but what is a machine? A machine is a cold machine, and nothing else.
It cannot give you warmth, nor enlightenment, nor peace of mind in times of doubt, pain, or anxiety, and in their Holy See, all God's gifts are tools for worldly finances and prestige, even you, Miss. β
Speaking of which, Miss Orviglia carefully recalled it according to the words of the "priest".
As far back as I can remember, her parents barely took care of her after she was born.
All the eating, drinking, traveling, shopping, and gatherings were all arranged by the servants.
Her parents are like butchers, and she is like lambs to the slaughter, who can be given to the restaurant in exchange for more profits when they are fattened.
She is like a tool, when she is useful, she is the daughter of a nobleman, and when she is useless, she is an outsider who has already married, the bond of marriage, and the victim of the family.
Destiny is doomed at birth.
The girl struck while the iron was hot, and continued to say softly: "Miss, in my conversation with you, I can know that you are a sensual girl who yearns for freedom, and you should not fall into the cage of the world early, which will make you lose yourself.
Believe me, that feeling can make you depressed, hopeless, crazy, and even evil! β
When she heard the word "evil thing" and thought of the horrible, hideous face of the evil thing in the textbook of the 'Gabriel Academy', she almost trembled.
Olivia couldn't accept that she had become that ghost.
"But what can I do? My father was one of the greatest nobles in the city of Yord, and no one dared to disobey him! Miss Olivia cried out in pain.
At this moment, all the sadness of so many years surged into Mel Olivia's heart in an instant, and the helplessness at this moment was so unforgettable.
"Miss, you don't need to be sad, remember carefully, do you live here at ease and free?"
Olivia was stunned for a moment and said, "Yes, Father, since talking to you, I feel a little frustrated in my heart, I feel more free than ever, after all, you know, no one cares what I say. β
The girl smiled with a successful smile and continued to play the role of a magic stick:
"That's not my job, it's the goddess of light who has sprinkled the warmth of heavenly glory on your head, and the fact that you can feel that way in the Holy See shows that the goddess is looking after her lost lamb.
Listen, can you still hear the faint voice of heaven? β
At this moment, the girl pressed the play button of the MP3 placed on the table in front of her, and a high-class and solemn chorus suddenly came from inside.
This thing is also one of the strange things that came out of the orb.
It's weird, but it's useful.
It is the "diamond diamond" that the girl has been working as a part-time priest in recent days and won the weekly performance championship.
A light and mysterious voice reached Miss Olivia's ears through the black veil.
She covered her mouth in surprise, as if she couldn't believe what was happening to her now, could it really be that the goddess of light had appeared?
Even buy Karma!
"God...... Father, what is this?! β
How can humans from another world who have never seen high-end technology know the powerful effects of MP3?
Successful flickering.
"Do not doubt, do not doubt, just accept the Goddess's gift and comfort to you."
"Remember, miss, when you encounter any unsatisfactory, frustration, tribulation, temptation and lose your heart, come to the Holy See, every priest will bring you the gift of the goddess, and this is your second home."
Suddenly, hot tears poured out of Miss Olivia's eyes, and she didn't care that her makeup was melted, so she covered her face and cried bitterly, as if she was moved, and as if she was bent by life.
At this moment, the girl chose to be silent.
I don't know how long it took, maybe five minutes or so.
The movement behind the black veil gradually disappeared, but there was no sound of pushing the door to leave, and the girl knew that the noble lady was still there.
"Father ......"
"As much as I know it's too sudden, and I'm ashamed of the mechanical gods, I think this is the best place for me to escape from reality, maybe I'm a selfish person who just wants to be free...... So, please let me join the Holy See! β
The sudden words almost made the girl's heart flutter, but she still held back.
Whether it is a girl or a priest, be reserved and reserved!
"This place can heal your soul, but you still can't escape the fate of marriage." She rarely has a little conscience.
"No, I can give up everything I have to become a nun in the Holy See, and the laws of the empire will help every devout believer to free himself from the bondage of the world, so that we can devote ourselves to serving the gods of our faith."
The girl was stunned for a moment.
Yes? And there's such a thing??
She deserves to be a cultured lady.
In order to hide her embarrassment, the girl coughed twice:
"It's me who underestimated your determination, I didn't expect you to give up everything you have, I believe that the goddess of light will definitely favor you more."
She burst into tears and smiled, "Thank you, Father, for finding the motivation for me to live, if you allow, can you tell me your name, I want to repay you for your kindness in the future." β
"No need, since we are priests, we must be prepared to selflessly benefit the world, we are godly apostles, and we should not receive any reward."
Although she would love to take ......
In that way, you can get out of poverty and become well-off.
Is it......
The woman smiled and got up, "Anyway, thank you again for your enlightenment, I hope to meet you in the Holy See in the future, and finally, I wish you a pleasant evening." β
"The same goes for you."
Crunch~~
After saying goodbye to each other, the sound of the door opening and the sound of "da-da-da" high-heeled shoes trampling on the marble floor came from outside.
The noble lady must be gone now.
In the confessional room, the girl completely let go of herself and excitedly opened the system she brought with her reincarnation.
Pale gold panels appeared in front of her.
γDing~ You successfully fooled a follower of the Mechanic God Cult into believing in the Goddess of Light, and the Goddess of Light, Longyan Dayue, provided you with a bonus and obtained a purple orb. γ
"Open the Purple Orb!"
The originally gentle girl's voice suddenly became extremely excited.
I've been in this world for a week, and it's the first time I've gotten a purple orb!
γDing~ You have gained a specialization: "Hammer Mastery"]
Huh? Berserker nun?
