Just as Eco was packing up her things and was about to go to the church in Tannic City to "learn the Pope's life spells", Nora came to her side.

"...... Are you leaving?" Nora's voice was soft, but it revealed a deep reluctance and concern, and when Eco knew that Nora was coming, she also put down her luggage, and then sat down on the bed, patted her side, and motioned for Nora to sit down and talk slowly.

The reason why she let Nora sit on the edge of the bed is because her time is not really tight, and secondly, she can be sure that her excuse to "learn the Pope's life spell" can hide it from anyone, but she must not be able to deceive Nora because she has been discussing with the Pope for several months.

For Nora, Eco didn't want to hide too much, because she wanted to learn to be a human being, and she wanted to make a close friend, but since she was a friend, no matter what, a close friend who kept one secret after another couldn't be said, right?

After all, Nora basically didn't have any reservations about herself, and Eco secretly said in her heart that she was indeed not as honest as Nora at this point.

"Is there anything you want to tell me? Echo?" After sitting down, Nora's tone and expression softened a little, and after Nora sat down, Eco raised her hand and passed away a small soundproofing spell, because it was time to tell some secrets, which were not meant to be publicized.

"Well, actually, you should be able to guess, I don't really need to spend months learning the so-called 'Pope's Life Spell'. I do have other plans, although it is not convenient to talk to you about them specifically, but I have made an agreement with this Pope to accompany him to a ruin, and record his last memories in this world, he said, this is the story of his own life that he wants to record in addition to what he recorded in the history books and the Holy See's own history."

"What's the situation, you mean?" Hearing this, Nora couldn't help but exclaim.

"Well, this pope is about to reach his time, so he wants to do something in this capacity in the last period of time, not as a pope who is about to ascend to heaven, and what he says, recorded in the history books and the papal see's record of the popes, and I can probably understand a little bit of the literary saying, which is 'everything in my life is recorded in the history books, except for her'...... Something like that?"

"It's a pity that even if he wanted to recruit someone to record these things that couldn't be recorded in the history books, it wouldn't be possible. The Holy See wouldn't really record them, would they? After all, they didn't need an emotional history of 'Quito Lanser', so even if they did, they wouldn't be able to be exhaustive." Nora reacted, shrugged her shoulders and said, and Eco nodded, and continued, "And it is impossible to leave these stories, these experiences to the last bond of this Mr. Lancer in this world, that is, the only little apprentice he left in the world, and the last to be accepted."

"I see, he also has an apprentice...... So I think this recorded thing is also for his little apprentice, right?" Nora understood.

"That's right." Eco nodded.Then the two of them fell into an awkward silence.Fortunately.This embarrassment was broken after a long time.It was still Nora who broke this awkward silence Of course, you can't expect the wordless Eco to know how to take the initiative to break such silence, right?

I heard Nora say, "Eco, how long are you going to go, it's your freedom, but if I'm not mistaken, in a month's time, it's time for the student council president in our academy to graduate? I think so, if she doesn't see your friend when she graduates, she will feel a little unhappy, right? And besides, there must be your roommate, the vice president's succession ceremony or something, so ...... Be sure to come back early." Nora said gently.

"Well, I will." Eco nodded, but the magnitude of her nod was much larger than her usual nodding that was basically not very curvature.That is, she actually gave her reply very solemnly.And Nora obviously knew Eco's habits, and the gentle smile on the corner of her mouth became more beautiful.

"So, I'm gone."" Well, walk slowly and come back early ......" (by the way, does anyone think this paragraph is a bit of a small couple's daily feeling?)

However, what neither of them expected at this time was that the next time the two would see each other again would not be a month later...... That's been a lot longer.

Dividing line

Arriving at the door of the church in Tannic City, Eco handed over the special token left by Lancer to the papal knight who guarded the door, and then was invited in by the knight with a very respectful attitude, and took him directly to the depths of the Holy See, and came to an attic in the Holy See, which was also the residence that Lancer had specially chosen.

After Eco pushed the door and stepped into this attic, he heard very clearly the cry of a girl coming from the upper floor of this attic, and there were only three people who had vitality in this attic.

Standing in the doorway, Eco pondered the information he had just obtained, and did not move forward decisively. [,!] It's not appropriate to go upstairs to find Lancer, don't you hear the sound of a girl up there who is about to cry?

"Master...... I'm begging you, okay? Don't do this, you can live obviously. The lives of those scum shouldn't have been left in this world! Why do you sit back and watch your life come to an end for the sake of those scum's cheap lives?" This is what the girl said to Lancer, and it is not difficult to tell from here that the girl who is about to cry is the only bond that Lancer left in this world, his little apprentice, right?

And judging from this sentence and the prisoners who had just been dragged away, there was no doubt that it was the little apprentice who wanted her teacher to absorb the lives of these criminals to live.

In fact, hearing this, Eco probably understood that Lancer's own will was very simple, and he would be very determined to ...... And his apprentices, too, are like him, and they are all strong-willed people, and she wants him to live...... Even if it is certainly already known the wishes of the master.

With Lancer's temperament, he probably wouldn't hide it from his apprentices and subordinates, which is why he provoked so many opinions against his death, right? Otherwise, he just had to quietly and peacefully prepare for the aftermath and then come to the end.

While Eco was thinking about this, Lancer upstairs was sure who was pushing the door in, so he shouted and asked Eco to go upstairs.

"Hello, Mr. Lancer....... A personal disciple of Pope Lancer?" As soon as he used his ability to sweep away Lancer's little apprentice, who was about 16 years old and looked like both the beauty of a young girl and the childish spirit of a little girl, Eco was surprised, it should be said that he was very, very surprised, shocked.

Eco's reaction was only surprise, this is already considered good, if this is known to the ordinary papal personnel, they will all be Spartan.

This is also a matter of course...... If someone tells you that there is a meritorious pope of the Cult of the Illuminati, a pope who specializes in the art of life, his apprentice is actually a sixth-order vampire, a necromantic creature...... You're probably surprised, right?

That's right, this girl is a vampire who has cultivated up to the sixth order...... Although it was strange that this guy seemed to be not afraid of the sun, the sunlight outside the window spilled in, and a few beams of sunlight even shone directly on her body kneeling in front of Lancer, but she didn't do anything at all.

Lancer was not surprised that Eco would feel strange, although ordinary people could not see the identity of his favorite little apprentice at all, even if it was an ordinary red and white archbishop, but as a seventh-order life priest, Eco could certainly see it clearly.

So Lancer pointed to the maiden and said, "Miss Eco, you are here...... This is what I told you, my favorite little apprentice, Nightsong is also a vampire, Miss Eco, you can see it, right?"

"Huh?" Suddenly found that his master actually told his identity to this unknown unknown person.,Cute with a cold and glamorous Lori in the cuteness that just came up.Night Song said that he was shocked.,I didn't know what expression to use to face the two of them for a while.But fortunately,Lancer's introduction to Nightsong to Eco also made Nightsong understand what the situation was.

"This little lady is the master's latest friend.Eco Springs.Don't look at her petite and cute appearance.But she's a seventh-order life priest.And unlike your master and me, this young lady is really young.You can become good friends in the future, right?So there's no need to hide your identity, you understand, right?Night Song?" Lancer's explanation made Night Song understand that since the other party was a seventh-order life priest, he must be able to see his own details.

"I see, hello, Eco senpai." Nightsong politely bowed to Eco, who returned her with a proper salute.

"So, now that everyone is here, let's get down to business, shall we?" Lancer sat up straight and said to the two little girls......
