Chapter 44: Our Lady
As the festivities continued, a drunken Lawrence was helped home by Salil and Emma and slept until dawn.
Early in the morning, Lawrence sat up from the big bed, and Sariel and Sophia were no longer around.
"Master, you're awake."
Lawrence looked at the man beside the bed, it was Bull.
Bull got up from the edge of the bed, where she had just sat reading a book.
Lawrence smiled and said with some embarrassment: "Bull, I remember that I came back to sleep yesterday when I was drunk, have you been here with me?" ”
Bull put the book aside and walked over to prepare Lawrence's boots.
"No, you weren't very drunk last night, and when you came back you fell asleep peacefully, and Sariel and Sophia had just woken up and were waiting outside for breakfast."
"Kassandra and Catherine are also resting outside, it's a good day and it's cool outside."
Lawrence looked at the book in Bull's hand.
Seeing this, Bull picked up the book, "This is the book of the Dawn Church, I plan to send Kenny to Durella in a few years, so I want to know about the Dawn Church first." ”
Lawrence smiled: "This is the way it should be, our side has been very busy, and it has not had time to develop in many aspects, and now it is mainly in agriculture and military research and development." ”
"The church is actually far more tolerant than everyone thinks, and you know about the presence of female pastors in our church."
Bull nodded and said, "Yes, I know, it's the Holy Hela, she was a nun of the Dawn Church before, and now she is a Holy Daughter of the Star Church. ”
Hela's existence is well known, and the power of the Church can be grasped by ordinary people, and it has been known to some of the meritorious nobles.
Lawrence knew that Boole and these people were not ordinary people, and no one thought that they could master that kind of magical power.
Only those nobles and knights who were not lords, or who were not illustrious, would feel that they were ordinary people, and that the real farmers felt that they were not ordinary people.
It is a lower being.
Lawrence looked at Bull earnestly, telling her a truth in formal words, not mere comforting.
"Bull, magic will not turn you away because of your origin and past, no matter when and where, no matter what happened in the past, as long as you follow our teachings, it is possible to gain God's favor."
"You don't need to find out who God is and how he exists, it doesn't mean anything to us, we just need to know that God wants this world to be a better place, and he wants each of us to live happily in this land."
"Mastering magic doesn't depend on identity, nor how close you are to me, let alone how good you are at doing things, but how you really think of us here as home."
Bull quickly said: "I'm just a lowly tavern dancer, it's already an honor for me to be a maid by your side, and being a nun and a priest has nothing to do with a lowly woman like me. ”
Lawrence got out of bed, stood on the ground and began to get dressed.
While getting dressed, he smiled and said, "Bull, you are very hardworking, I recognize your diligence, and I also recognize your bravery." ”
"You don't have to underestimate yourself, be happy, face life with your chest up, turn your hope for the future, and the happiness you have from all of this into praise for me and God, and use my and God's strength to help those in need."
Lawrence believed in Bull's courage and hard work, and although the woman was not as close to the Lawrence family as Emma, Lawrence had more respect for the weak-looking woman.
"I don't know how to give you courage, I don't know how to make you confident, if you still care about your past, then I say no matter how much it is better to have a meal with you at night, take a bath and sleep together, and use new and happy memories to wash away those memories full of scars and bitterness in the past."
Bull realizes that Lawrence is serious, and realizes that Lawrence is not the kind of person who likes it, nor is he joking, but really respects himself and sees himself as a precious friend, a woman worthy of respect.
"Thank you, Lawrence." Bull wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, smiled and said, "I appreciate your attention, but I don't know how to repay you." ”
Lawrence smiled, "You are now my maid, and you are also a nun of the convent, and your status is not low. ”
"If anyone needs help, you can reach out and rescue them on my behalf and on behalf of the church."
"It's almost time for the celebration to come to an end, and although I would love to go home and rest and do something I love, I still need to go to the families who have lost their brothers, the families who have lost their husbands and children."
"I may not be able to do it alone, would you like to help me?"
Bull knew what he was going to do, "Of course, I would love to!" ”
Lawrence saw that Bull was in a very good state of mind, so he proposed: "You can read more books on the church, and if you need anything, you can go to Brielel and Hela and ask, the real nuns and saints should be the divine beings that everyone recognizes, not the words of the family." ”
Bull remembered Lawrence's words, and at this time someone walked in outside the door, and Bull quickly said, "Yes! Prophet! ”
Sariel walked in with a curious expression, "Lawrence, it's time to eat, what are you talking about?" I thought you would go out soon after you woke up, why did it take so long? ”
Lawrence was already dressed, "I'm talking about the church, and the arrangements for the next few days, Sariel, you are here to clean up the house these days, and I have to go to comfort the families of the wounded and sacrificed soldiers these days, the atmosphere will be very heavy, and you will be very uncomfortable with it." ”
Sariel also knew this, and had seen the atmosphere in which Lawrence went to the families of the victims and victims, and it was indeed not suitable for casual talk.
"Then I'll dry the quilt here, and the quilt, sheets, and plush coat won't keep warm if they don't dry and make them fluffy."
Sariel has what she's good at, and Lawrence has what she's good at.
Now those little witches of the Holy Virgin Academy have not grown up, and those people are more suitable for scientific research and high-level technical talents.
As for the female pastor, if according to the teachings of the Church of the Stars, the industrious and brave will be favored and gifted, then it is not Saliel and Sophia who are most qualified, nor Emma.
It's Boolean.
Industrious, he earned money to support his family in Doug's tavern from a very early age.
Brave, kill when you should kill, unite when you should unite, and at the beginning, she and Emma took the initiative to brave the snowstorm and danger, and went up the mountain to find Lawrence with difficulty.
Our Lady, when she met Kenny, mainly took pity on the missionary Kenny, and protected Kenny's child not because of Kenny, but because she wanted to protect the child, and when the child grew up, she was determined to let him leave him and grow up in his father's hometown.
At the beginning, in order to protect the children, in order to let the children live, I did a lot of sacrificing myself.
These are things that everyone sees in their eyes, or even does not understand.
Lawrence believes that Bourby deserves God's attention for everyone, and believes that this native Bhuminian woman will become the second pastor of the Church of the Stars.
She didn't have this awareness before, but now Lawrence has told her that she is more qualified than anyone else! (End of chapter)
