138. Practice

It was another early morning, the sun was shining, and there were several Exocet boats floating on the blue sea, and two large sea ships sailed into the port of Castletown one after the other.

These days, Roy can always meet Sabrina in the morning, and the two of them ride together in a carriage to the Elven Academy.

The carriage stopped in front of the huge rock arch hewn in front of the cliff avenue, and dozens of carriages were already parked here, and many people were standing outside the carriage and watching towards the cliff avenue.

There were many Silver Moon Elves standing on the Cliff Avenue, and almost all of them were lined up on both sides of the Avenue with flowers in their hands.

Almost all the eyes of the elves were watching a carriage slowly departing in the distance, the carriage of which was covered with flowers, and a sarcophagus was placed between the flowers, around which many Silver Moon Elves walked on foot, accompanied by the priest of Thorndike of the Temple of the Moon God.

Of course, Roy's carriage didn't have a way to see the scene on the cliff boulevard.

You can only see some Silver Moon Elves holding flowers and standing on the edge of the cliff avenue.

"Did you hear that? Claire Latin is dead. ”

There were elves whispering in the carriage.

The elf, who did not hear the news, immediately asked in surprise:

"When?"

The elf who spoke earlier responded:

"Just the night before yesterday, the funeral was held this morning."

Then he said:

"I heard that many elves are preparing to mourn Master Claire Latin at the entrance of the art museum this morning, but I didn't expect the cliff avenue to be so congested, should we go to see the excitement?"

"Forget it, if you dare to skip class, don't even think about passing this class."

The companion hesitated for a moment and refused.

……

Roy looked through the car window and at the cliff overhead, not expecting the artist to have such a great reputation in the city of Castleton......

I'd only heard Belinda say his name before, but Roy never thought the master carver was so great.

For a while, Roy even thought of him as Ms. Belinda's boss.

As an assistant to Claire Latin's master, Ms. Belinda's job is not easy.

Roy also often complained to Ms. Belinda, saying that she often worked overtime in this job, and even did not receive overtime pay......

When Ms. Belinda heard this, she only smiled faintly.

……

Sitting next to the car window, Sabrina with two textbooks in her arms, she looked out the window curiously at the cliff and looked at the elves holding flowers.

Roy sat quietly on the sidelines, and Priest Theodore had not returned to the Liberty Temple to this day, nor had he been seen anywhere else.

"Is there still a meeting at the temple today?"

Sabrina retracted her gaze and whispered to Roy, who was a little distracted.

"Hmm." Roy replied dullly.

"Or will you distribute the holy water?"

Sabrina asked again.

"Hmm."

Sabrina turned her head to look at Roy in confusion, and found that he was looking at her snow-white arms in a daze.

Next to her arm was a round ball wrapped in a dress, and Sabrina gave Roy a speechless look, not wanting to bother with him anymore......

After waiting for a while, even the street behind was crowded with horse-drawn carriages, and the front began to pass.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the Elven Academy.

Sabrina tugged at the hem of her skirt and stepped out of the carriage with her textbook in her arms.

Roy followed behind her, had just jumped out of the carriage, said goodbye to Sabrina, and walked alone through the Elven Academy gates.

Claire ran over from the other side of the road, and said to Roy with a fluttering eyebrow:

"Roy, you don't know how popular I was yesterday, when I finished playing that song and walked out of the third school building, the corridors were crowded with elves, and everyone was applauding me......"

Roy knew, of course, that he was also in the crowd, but he left without listening.

"I heard it too, and it's a very good song."

Roy walked down the road leading to the training ground and into the academy.

"Of course, and that's half the credit for that......"

Claire catches up with Roy and says to him excitedly.

"What does it have to do with me?" Roy immediately cleared his mind.

He didn't want to get the word out.

Because there are actually very few tunes that he can hum.

"It's your ......"

Claire didn't understand why Roy had to dissociate himself from the tune.

Roy hurriedly interrupted him and said:

"Stop, I'm just repeating the sounds of nature, but your tune has nothing to do with me, and I don't know music."

Claire stopped where she was, trying to chase Roy and have a good argument with him.

I saw that on the side of the road, there were several silver moon elf girls with sweet smiles on their faces, and they walked in front of him very ladylikely:

"Hello Claire, I'm Abis, I've heard that song you composed, can you tell me what it's called?"

"Blue Dane ......"

Before Claire could move forward, another group of Silver Moon Elves surrounded her.

"Hi Claire, I heard that you wrote a great tune, would you like to come to our Hibiscus Music Club?"

The Silver Moon Elves passing by were also whispering:

"Look, that's this year's freshman Wagner. Claire, not only fights well, but also writes very good tunes. ”

There was even a very bright-looking Silver Moon Elf girl who stood generously in front of Claire and boldly asked:

"Hi Claire, are you free for the weekend?"

The sweat on Claire's forehead flowed down at once, and he looked at Roy, who was getting farther and farther in front of him, and hurriedly stretched out his hand and shouted loudly:

"Roy, wait a minute."

With that, he rushed out of the encirclement of the elves.

Only a group of Silver Moon Elves who didn't know what to do were left behind.

……

In the afternoon, the Statue of Liberty.

Roy stood in the side hall in a midshipman's robe, and in front of him was a silver platter containing some holy water rich in holy light.

Behind him, the pool was filled with a pool of holy water, which he had obtained after pouring the pool of holy light into the pool twice last night and this morning......

Looking at the pale golden glow on the water, the believers who were waiting in line all had expectant smiles on their faces.

Roy first had to use the holy water in the basin to perform a soul purification ritual for each believer, and then he could scoop out a cup of holy water from behind him and distribute it to the believers in front of him.

After the choir's work was over, Sabrina also mixed in with the group, waiting for Roy to distribute the holy water.

Roy needed to chant the Sacred Prayer constantly, but he was familiar with only two Sacred Prayers, and he could only mutter back and forth repeatedly.

He deliberately slurred his words, anyway, it would be good for everyone to know that he was reciting the prayer, and as for what he was saying, there was no need for everyone to hear clearly.

Sabrina was always at the bottom of the line, and when he saw her, Roy knew that today's baptism was coming to an end.

Sabrina half-crouched down on her knees in front of Roy, who rubbed a little holy water on her white forehead with her fingers.

Then, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at Roy, just in time to see Roy's gaze fall into her slightly open neckline, Sabrina's choir robe was a little loose, and the neckline was also a large oval, which was actually very empty......

She felt some burning in her cheeks.

Roy was a little thick-skinned, and quietly withdrew his gaze, but when he scooped the holy water, his hands trembled a little, and he almost poured the holy water out of the cup......

Sabrina couldn't wait to splash a glass of holy water in her hand on Roy's face.

……

In the evening, before Moira and Roy could start sparring, Sabrina walked to Roy's patio with a heavy wooden sword, a tank top and shorts.

Roy stood up a little weakly and said to Moira, "Otherwise, I think we'll ...... tonight."

"I'll practice with you!"

Sabrina barely gave Roy any chance to refuse, picking up the wooden sword with one hand and placing the blade of the wooden sword on Roy's shoulder.

Roy had no choice but to use the wooden stick in his hand to smash Sabrina's heavy wooden sword.

Sabrina took the opportunity to hold the sword with both hands, and the tip of the heavy wooden sword drew a circle in midair, and the blade changed an angle and slashed silently towards Roy.

Roy found that his retreat was sealed by Sabrina, so he could only grit his teeth and parry Sabrina's sword with the wooden stick and log shield in his hand.

The heavy wooden sword was as heavy as it was in her hand, but it slashed at Roy's stick, and it smashed it open.

Roy's hand holding the wooden sword immediately became a little numb......

Obviously, Sabrina was dressed very coolly, and when she held the sword in both hands, her thighs were dazzlingly white in the terrace light, but at this moment Roy couldn't be distracted at all.

His eyes were fixed on Sabrina's heavy wooden sword......

Sabrina's attack was simple, that is, he stepped forward and slashed, and the heavy wooden sword slashed down so hard that Roy could only raise his shield to parry.

She gripped the heavy wooden sword in both hands and slammed it against the log shield, sending Roy about to take two steps back uncontrollably.

The power coming from the heavy wooden sword made his arm tingle.

After a practice, Roy felt like his arm was about to dislocate.

…… It wasn't until the end that she couldn't parry it, and Sabrina stopped.

At this time, even Sabrina was sweating profusely, she didn't expect that Roy would resist so many slashes in one go.

As long as Roy resisted a few more times, Sabrina didn't know how many more swords she could slash again.

A good log shield was almost full of dents, and not only was the surrounding iron hoop completely detached, but even the fist-sized iron sheet in the center of the round wooden shield was smashed and completely peeled off.

The heavy wooden sword in Sabrina's hand was even more scarred, and the blade in the middle section was extensively damaged.

Moira could also see that Sabrina was trying to teach Roy a lesson.

After the practice, Sabrina went home with a heavy wooden sword over the wall, and it was then that Moira, who was hiding on the side, came up and asked Roy secretly:

"Roy, how did you mess with Sabrina again?"

Roy is a little confused, and he can't say that he was discovered by Sabrina when he was looking at the Mariana Trench.
