Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Linya has been back at the Léa Palace for four days. Now her life has become very regular, every day is to stretch out her hands for clothes, open her mouth for food, except for meal time, she basically hides in her bedroom to read. Aside from the fact that the annoying friend is really annoying, life in the palace is quite pleasant.

There will be no one to disturb her here, Namiya will still come up to accompany her from time to time, Linya also happens to have many questions to ask her, Namia has received a theological education since she was a child, and her knowledge is still very rich, from her mouth, Linya gradually understands the current world.

Erinka, the little one, has been having a lot of fun since she was abducted by that old guy from Brian that day, and every day she flies back in the middle of the night, sleeps under the covers, and slips out early in the morning, for days on end. This night, the little phoenix played until midnight before flying back to Linya's dormitory from the magic temple, and her little head opened the bed, got into Linya's arms, and fell asleep. Linya was so annoyed that she took it out, glared at her, and said, "Stinky boy, do you still know to come back?"

Erinka blinked her sleepy little eyes, a pitiful look, and hung her little head ready to be trained. Linya looked angry and funny, and knocked her little head with her fingers and scolded with a smile: "A few fire crystals will tempt you, and I will lose the face of this princess!"

The little phoenix hurriedly shook her head, and while Linya was not paying attention, she drilled her little head over, grinding it affectionately on Linya's face, and her little wings fluttered and fanned. Linya shook her head and smiled bitterly: "Alas, I really can't do anything about you! Okay, go to sleep!" Erinka cheered, and then got into the bed and fell asleep in Linya's arms.

The next morning, when Linya was still sleeping soundly, Namia came to the dormitory and urged, "Little lazy worm, it's time to get up!" Linya looked out of the window in a daze, it was still early, "Well, it's so early, let's sleep a little longer!" "No, today is the day of prayer, can't you sleep lazy!" Namia said, coming to the bed to catch someone. Linya hurriedly rolled the quilt tightly, still lying on the bed and said, "What is the prayer day, can't you go if you don't go?"

"Of course not!" Namiya glared and said, "You are a member of the royal family, as an example of thousands of people in the empire, how can you be lazy! This weekly prayer ceremony must not be absent!" Linya pouted, Namia had already called the maid to serve the little princess to get up. Lifting the quilt, the hateful little Erinka was still lying on the bed and sleeping soundly, a sweet dream, it was really infuriating.

Finally washed and dressed, Xiao Linya, who was beautifully dressed and fragrant, walked out of the dormitory surrounded by Namiya and four female soldiers of the personal guard. After turning a few corners in the palace, he came to the end of a wide corridor, where there was a circular room, where two men dressed as magicians were guarding, and when they saw Linya, they hurriedly put their hands flat on their chests and bowed. Only magicians like Marand and Brian would use this etiquette, the etiquette peculiar to magicians.

One of the two magicians said, "Your Royal Highness the princess, do you want to go downstairs?" Namiya said, "Yes, Her Royal Highness the princess is going to the temple to pray, please send us down!" In the middle of the hut was a very large ring with a six-pointed star carved into it, which took up nearly half of the hut. Linya followed Namia into the hut, and all six of them stood on the six-pointed star, and the two magicians closed their eyes and stretched out their arms, chanting incantations and casting their magic.

As the magician chanted, a shining light flew from the golden ring, and later, the light grew more and more dazzling, until at last the six people standing in the ring were completely enveloped. Linya suddenly noticed that her body was fluttering, as if she had lost her center of gravity, and it was a wonderful feeling.

While Linya was still immersed in that wonderful feeling, the whole world suddenly seemed to come back again, and the huge pressure almost bent her legs off guard, and she almost fell. Fortunately, the female knight beside her had already helped her and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, be careful!"

Linya couldn't help but stick out her tongue and make a grimace to hide her gaffe. The light has gradually dissipated, and the surrounding situation has gradually revealed, this is still a circular hut, and the ground is still the same ring and six-pointed star pattern, but the two magicians guarding the side have been replaced, well, is it already downstairs? This may be a fixed-point space teleportation magic, this otherworldly magic is really interesting.

Following Namia out of the castle, there was a red garden, green grass, all kinds of unknown strange flowers blooming at will, so natural and pleasant, the clear artificial stream from the garden gracefully passed, delicate bridges dotted on it, there was a unique style. However, the most obvious thing in the garden is the maple groves, the red maple leaves singing in the morning breeze. Linya couldn't help but ask, "How can these maple leaves be red? Is it autumn now?"

Namia said strangely: "Princess, why do you ask about this? The maple tree here is the most precious golden maple, a rare tree species unique to the Northern Violet Continent, and it is also the tree of national fortune of our Red Leaf Empire. Their leaves are always red, and they don't turn golden until the leaves fall in autumn, and then they are even more beautiful! I heard people say that in the past, there were such beautiful red maple forests everywhere on this red plain, and that's how the name of the plain came from. But now, too, you can see such beautiful scenery in the park! His Majesty the Emperor had a great deal of trouble to find them from the northern forests and transport them back to the city of Raea. ”

Wow, that's not a good habit!! Wandering on the picturesque meadow, with the surrounding antique castles, Linya felt as if she had entered a fairy tale world, and she actually became the princess in this fairy tale, and the encounters in the past few days were like in a dream.

Before they knew it, they had walked through the beautiful garden and arrived at the Temple of Light. The Temple of Light is located to the northwest of the Royal Palace, forming a triangle with the Temple of Magic and the Royal Palace, enclosing the Royal Gardens in the middle.

The Praetorian Guards had already guarded the outside of the Temple of Light, and when they entered the temple, the maids of the temple were busy preparing for prayers, and when they saw the princess, they simply bowed and went. The Temple of Light has a transcendent status in the realm of the Doctrine of Light, and even the status of these handmaidens is not ordinary—the handmaidens of the God of Light.

"Priest Kalisa!" Namia saluted to the visitor, it was a white-robed priestess in her thirties and forties, with a dignified and kind expression, and the Rose Knights of the personal guard also hurriedly performed a very solemn formal knightly salute to the priest. Oh no, what should I do now? Salute her? Before Linya knew what to do, Priest Kalisa had already walked up to Linya, clasped her hands in front of her chest, palms up, and took the initiative to bow to her. This kind of etiquette is very rare for Linya, and she has the impression that only Namia will practice this kind of etiquette to people who are very respectful, which is different from the etiquette of a knight and the etiquette of a magician.

After all, this other world is still a class society, and all kinds of etiquette are dazzling. Fortunately, one of Linya's many maids was a female official who was responsible for guiding the princess's etiquette, and she learned a lot from her. As a princess of the royal family, she also has her own unique way of saluting. There are two main types of etiquette, one is to bow to the elders, which is the active etiquette, and the other is the return salute, the passive reciprocal etiquette. The first half of both rituals is the same, with her arms crossed flat on her chest, fingertips reaching her shoulder blades and palms facing inward. These are necessary, you only need to nod slightly at the same time when you return the salute, and when you take the initiative to bow, you must bow, nod, and you must move your waist, otherwise it will be disrespectful.

Of course, all etiquette varies depending on the occasion and the identity of the other person. Such a standard reciprocal salute is only a reciprocal etiquette for a person with status such as a high-ranking knight in a formal communication situation, and a simple return salute for a person with a not very noble status in an informal setting, so there is no need to pose at this time, only a slight nod to the saluter. As for saluting those who had no status, such as maids and maids, she did not need to return the salute at all.

One of the most important criteria is the angle at which the body is leaned forward, and the deeper the bend, the more solemn the etiquette. But in any case, as a female member of the royal family, she must not bow more than 45 degrees in order to maintain the dignity of the royal family.

It's a hassle!

The active salute only needs to be exercised to people with higher status than themselves, in this palace, except for Emperor Hermann and Empress Isabel, it is our little princess who is the largest, but Linya has never taken the initiative to salute anyone, hehe, parents are their own family, there is no need to be so polite, besides, Emperor Herman and Empress Isabel, who are extremely fond of their daughters, have never cared about their daughters. It can be seen that the emperor and the empress are still very easy-going in dealing with the relationship between family members. Linya took advantage of a friend's visit again, and even took the opportunity to waste the greeting etiquette every morning, and she was happy and relaxed.

For other people's salutes to herself, Linya usually only needs to nod her head, and her identity is so noble, and those people don't dare to have any opinions. As for her own guards and the maids-in-waiting, Linya gave an order shortly after returning to the palace: no salutes. I don't look up and look down all day long, what kind of courtesy do you do, you don't bother, I'm still annoying. Salute, don't reply, it seems to be contemptuous of you, salute back, the whole day is over?

It stands to reason that if Priest Kalisa took the initiative to salute herself, then she only needed to return the etiquette. But in my memory, I feel that the position of the priest should be very noble, and the identity of the bishop is completely different, the priest is the host and the supreme person in charge of various activities and ceremonies in the temple of light in a country, and is the spokesman of God, while the bishop is only the plenipotentiary representative of the Holy See in various countries, and the identity of the priest is detached compared to it. The relationship between politics and religion in this world is always unclear and unclear.

Linya quietly glanced at the Rose Knights of the Guard, who had already performed the most standard knightly salute, and Priest Carissa returned the salute one by one. Linya thought about it again and again, and finally decided to reply to a salute that should have been an active etiquette, and bent down and bowed, which was regarded as a respect for her.

"Priest Kalisa......" Linya was thinking about what to call her suffix, and the priest smiled slightly, "Your Royal Highness, welcome. Please come with me, the ceremony is about to begin. Linya noticed that she was addressed as "you" instead of "you", knowing that no one else in this palace dared to call herself "you" except for her father and queen mother, Linya couldn't help but secretly say that she was lucky.

The bell above the Temple of Light rang long and clear, and the prayer ceremony was much simpler than Linya had imagined a religious ceremony, of course, the main reason was that Linya didn't need to do anything, she just had to kneel with Namia in front of the huge statue of the God of Light in the center of the temple and sing a carol. Of course, after seeing the statue of the god, it is necessary to salute, the god of light is of course the highest status in this world, and the worship offered by Linya must of course be the most solemn, in addition to crossing her arms and hugging her chest, bowing at 45 degrees, as the most solemn etiquette, you must also add a knee bend salute: the legs are crossed at the knee joint, and of course the angle of the knee bend cannot exceed 45 degrees.

Wow, I'm tired!

The maids sang a magnificent hymn, and Carissa and Namia also sang softly, but it was a pity that Linya couldn't sing it when she remembered the content of the poem, so she was really bored, so Linya simply looked around.

The statue of the god of light in front of him is about ten meters high, in order to place this great statue of the god, the interior of the entire temple is hollow, forming a circular hall with a diameter of about four or five hundred meters, and the center of the circle is naturally the statue of the god, this momentum is indeed shocking enough. The buildings and houses in the temple are centered around the statue of the deity, and a red staircase surrounds the four walls up to the high circular dome. Linya couldn't help but wonder, how did such a tall unframed roof be built?

The Statue of Light is a feminine statue, and it is clear from the figure and style of clothing that it is. The craftsman's carving skills are very exquisite, every detail of the body of the statue is very good, the graceful body, the beautiful face, the skirt horns that seem to fly, but the momentum is so solemn, people dare not give birth to the slightest blasphemy.

Her expression is kind and kind, and her eyes that seem to be carved out of crystal are even more vivid, and those penetrating eyes seem to be able to see the depths of everyone's heart, and people can't help but be impressed by her silent influence. The carving of this eye is extremely exquisite, and it can always cover all the areas in front of her, and Linya has always felt the gaze of this gaze since she first entered the temple, and no matter where she goes, those eyes seem to stay on her body, and people dare not look up.

Linya's current spirit belongs to Xiao Yuan, of course she doesn't believe that this god of light really exists, there is only one god in the world, the god of creation. But Linya is not disgusted by these gods created by human beings themselves, and human beings need a god to comfort their weak and frightened hearts, which is probably the real purpose of religion's creation and existence.

When Linya was about to see her senses, Namia quietly pushed her and said, "Princess, princess!" Linya came back to her senses, only to realize that the carol had been sung, and the maids had begun to clean up the hall. Well, it's going to be over so soon? I thought it would be a lot of trouble.

Namia smiled softly, "Princess, what are you thinking?" "Ahhh

"Really, how did you think so much about it? In fact, if you have any wishes, you can tell the great god of light, and she will surely satisfy the pious people!" said Namia, still smiling.

Linya thought for a while and said, "If you want to talk about your wish, I really have a ...... I want to be a boy! But I'm afraid no one can help me!"

"What?" Namia was stunned for a moment, then laughed again, "Princess, why did you suddenly have such a strange thought?"
