After admiring Shaye's embarrassed and annoyed look, Luo Wei decided to wait for her to settle the deposit matter and tell her a surprise.

Well......

After so long in the making, the amount should be enough to make her fall for a while.

But now, it was not early, and Luo Wei didn't forget to go to the church to pray for a while, and stopped the third ...... who hadn't finished playing Well, there should only be two of them.

Ayi Ning didn't have to say that she was happy, her brows were tightly locked, I am afraid that she has been thinking about how to handle this crooked demon.

It's more energetic.

"Huh? Is that the end of it? Lu Yi was very reluctant, and his eyes were still looking in other directions.

"If your guide does a good job, there will be a chance," Luo Wei looked at her calmly, "You should be able to see that we have not broken our promises to you." ”

"......Uhh The human world is so interesting, why don't we go to the ruins now!? ”

"We have other things to do, so we can't." Rowe shrugged and replied.

I don't know if it's a good thing to be so motivated.

Listening to the conversation between the two, Ayining's brows furrowed even deeper on the side, why could he speak in a normal way to restrain Lu Yi?

Is it because of his attitude and sense of expectation in stating the facts? And the untactful way of refusing?

She then fell into deep thought, and left with Lu Yi with Sayya, who looked very anxious.

"Sha, Shaye, what's wrong with her?"

Standing on the street where the sun was setting, Vimere asked.

She could see that Saya didn't seem to be in a state either.

"It's nothing, it's just the ups and downs of the life of a working angel."

“？”

Vimere tilted her head in confusion, and the shadow looked silly cute in the setting sun.

Rowe leaned over his shadow as well.

"Alright, it's time to go to church."

"Hmm!"

In the middle of the twilight, the two arrived at the Church of Prayer in the City of No Crown.

The cave hall gives the impression of purity and holiness, and the marble floor reflects the reflection of light, perhaps due to the situation in and around the city, and there are still people praying and meditating on the pews at this time.

Vermeer greeted a nun with ease, then led Rowe through the side door into the inner room, and walked down the corridor to the end, where the bishop's office was located.

Knock knock.

Vimere knocked on the door.

"Hello, I'm Vimil von Diesthe, the Celebrant of the Pilgrimage who is temporarily stationed here, is the Bishop here?"

"Come in......"

An old voice answered her.

Pushing the door in, the bishop sitting at his desk had white hair and a straight back.

When he saw that Vimir had brought someone in, the old bishop gave Rowe a second look.

"The person who wants to see you is underground, but he ...... Can't get in. ”

Huh?

Although Vimir expected that there would be obstacles, she didn't expect to refuse without even asking.

Rowe stood there, looking at the bishop sitting there with a flat expression.

"How about being open?" He said, "Since I came with me, I don't plan to wait outside." ”

The old bishop was silent for a moment.

After a few breaths, he slowly stood up holding his scepter.

"Follow me."

Vimere: "......? ”

Hmm, it's a bit confusing.

I didn't even ask, why was I persuaded by Luo Wei with a word?

Are they testing each other?

Moreover, who is it that wants to see himself that needs the bishop himself to lead the way?

Rowe rubbed her head and followed the bishop without saying anything.

Not......

He didn't seem nervous at all, and the bishop touched my head while he was still in front......

Walking underneath the church, it became colder and colder, and it was like winter when the weather was starting to get warmer.

"Here we are."

Walking unequivocally, the old bishop stopped in front of a sealed stone door.

He turned to look at the two of them.

"Rowe Brooke, I have only one request, don't get too close to that adult."

"I promise." Luo Wei replied in a deep voice.

Vimere was slightly stunned.

Do they know?

How did the bishop know Luo Wei's name, obviously he didn't introduce it.

Luo Wei looked at her helplessly.

You're underestimating your church's intelligence capabilities.

Thanks to Marcus, even if it was all thrown to Lane, the major forces and churches would have remembered him for a long time, and the person who didn't care about the situation at all insisted on accompanying him at the moment, and the bishop just left the decision to the person inside.

The heavy stone door of the seal was unsealed, and the old bishop stood by the door with his scepter, first making a prayer inside, and then motioning for the two to pass.

Although she was not afraid, Vimeer suddenly became a little nervous.

Who even the bishop needs to bow to......

As she took a step and her eyes fell into the cold stone chamber, Vermeer saw the woman Belle had described, wearing a gold-trimmed white and blue hood, sitting on a gray-black carved stone chair.

"Come in."

The other party's voice is very soft, as if it has its own echo, and there is a kind of ethereal inspiration.

There were only stone tables, chairs, and stone beds in the room, and Vimere walked to the other side at the other party's signal, and turned around to see Rowe standing in the doorway and not coming.

The old bishop closed the door for them.

Vimere: "......"

Air, so serious.

"You're Vimir, aren't you?"

“…… Be. ”

"I didn't expect you to bring someone over."

After speaking softly, the woman stretched out her bloodless hand and slowly took off her hood.

Along with the pale curls that were so faint that they couldn't see the blonde that they couldn't be seen, there was also a pale face that was unusually beautiful, and the bloodless face gave people a weak beauty, and it was difficult to find focus in the slightly cloudy pupils.

"I'm Shatisi of the Purifying Court, and I hope this face doesn't scare you." The woman whispered.

"No, it won't." Vimere shook her head slightly.

It should be for some reason that the other party looks so weak.

"May I ask, what is the 'Purifier Court'?"

Raised in the church and a priest, Vimere never saw this name in the church books.

"You can understand it as a secret agency that adjudicates the enemies of the Goddess of Pure Water," Shattis said, looking directly at her, "I need to know your reasons for insisting on bringing him in before we begin." ”

Is the Church's Secret Army......

Vimir looked up under the other's gaze.

"If you were going to tell me something he'd know sooner or later, would you still ask that?"

“……？”

Shatils leaned back, her gaze falling on Rowe for the first time.

And Luo Wei closed his eyes and leaned against the door with his arms crossed, warning him in a sober and calm manner.

Look at it for a moment.

Shatils suddenly had the feeling that she couldn't take them apart, as if she was an outsider within the church.

Is this faith in the wrong place......

"Does he have a faith or a close denomination?" She asked.

"No, no......" Vimere replied.

"Can I think he'll help you keep it a secret?"

“…… Yes. ”

Shatils sighed.

The next words should not be known to outsiders, but they are not a top secret at the top of the major churches.

He is not a believer in gods.

But for some reason, there is always a feeling that my own people are being taken away.

"If the description is correct, you are already a user of the dual element?"

"Ah...... Yes, that's right. ”

Vermeer's heart lifted slightly.

Isn't it better not to say anything about the three elements?

I always feel that the topic is a bit serious.

Resisting the urge to look back at Lowe, she decided to do so before she could figure it out.

"Well, what happens next may be hard for you to accept, but you have to know."

Vimere: "......? ”

Shatis's eyes were dull, staring at her as much as she could.

"The goddess of our faith has fallen."

“！”

Faced with Vimere's stupor, Shatils looked up at Lowe, who looked more like she had expected it than indifferent.

He knows?

This gesture seemed to deliberately let her know that he had already learned the relevant truth and did not have to hide it.

"Huh......?"

Vimere reacted and sat there stunned looking at Shatils.

Shatils nodded at her.

"Eighteen years ago, in the war of the gods, our goddess fell along with many gods, and the apostles of the gods, including me, died at that moment, which is the best proof of this."

"God's ...... Apostle? ”

Vermeer had only read of this in a few books, and in addition to giving gods, the gods also had the ability to make apostolic contracts with their subordinates. This pact required the apostle to give everything he had to the gods, to become beings who were closely related to the gods, and to share more power than to give the Godhead.

But as a price, the apostles who gave everything will also perish with the gods once they fall.

"Yes," Shatils responded, "though I am only the last of the ranks, but I do have an apostolic contract with the goddess. ”

Vermeer's eyes trembled.

"That'...... What about you now? ”

"All you see now is me resurrected in the form of a ghost, and time is running out," she said, pointing to her blonde hair, which is almost invisible, "and when it fades completely, I'll regain my composure." ”

“……！”

Vimere froze, trying to keep herself as calm as she could.

The apostle of the goddess is right in front of him, and the goddess has fallen or something......

Cháttis's eyes are also because of ......

"Don't worry about me, what I need you to know is that the goddess left her own divine core before she fell."

"Huh?" Vimere's eyes remained slightly wide, "Why?" ”

Wouldn't it be ...... to leave the Divine Core and use it by someone?

"It seems that you already have some understanding of the god realm, so it will be convenient to explain," Shatils closed her eyes, "At the beginning, the power of the god fell collided and mixed under the unknown influence, even if we have the ability to resurrect the goddess, there is no guarantee that it is the pure goddess of pure water who will be revived." ”

"If this is the case, the gods can't guarantee what kind of impact the final gods will have on the world."

"Therefore, the meaning of the goddess leaving the divine core is that the holy woman is selected as a qualified person in the church, and after a series of experiences, one of the holy women will become the new goddess of pure water."

Vimere opened her mouth sluggishly.

She never thought that the deeds of the goddess were so close to her, and she left the divine core at the last moment for the sake of the world, which was undoubtedly the god she had always believed in.

But that doesn't mean ......

Won't the goddess come back?

"I have not been able to investigate the circumstances of the year, so I can only act according to the last wishes of the goddess."

Shatils sighed and raised her gaze again.

"Vimir, you were born in the Godfall period, and you have the characteristics of two elements, judging from the past investigation records, you are already a very good priest."

Vermeer hadn't recovered from what had just happened, and just sat there blankly listening.

What......

"I think you're qualified."

"I would therefore like to formally ask you, Vermeer von Diesthe, whether you are willing to dedicate your life to the faith, to make a vow in the Holy Trials of the Church?"

"Huh......?"

Vimere looked at each other with a bewildered expression.

It was only then that she began to realize that the other party was talking to herself for the sake of ......

"You will become the new saint of the Church of Prayer after passing the trial."

Shatisi looked at her solemnly.

"And one day, if you can stand out from the other saints—"

"You will inherit the divine core left by the goddess and become the new goddess of pure water."
