78: Just a Hundred-Year-Old Underage Elf, That's All~
"She fainted from anger just like that? With such poor ntal fortitude, she still ca out to learn how to scam people? Tsk, boring."
Amya picked up a slender branch from nearby and poked the scamming woman who had fainted on the ground. After confirming that she had truly passed out, she clicked her tongue in displeasure and casually tossed the branch onto the woman before jogging over to Evelia with open arms, wanting to hug her.
"Fufu~ How was it? Were you scared? If you feel afraid, you can co to my arms and act spoiled for a while~"
"No, get away you scum. Crawl!"
Evelia had felt a little touched when she heard Amya caring about her, but the latter part of her words instantly made her unable to hold it back. With a cold expression, Evelia rather ruthlessly dodged Amya's embrace.
"Um... Little sis... Miss, thank you very much for helping ."
"Mm... Hmm?"
At the sa ti, the white-haired girl also ca to Evelia's side. She revealed a gentle smile like a spring breeze and bowed very sincerely to thank Evelia. Looking at the other girl's equally stunning beauty that could be called a standard for beautiful girls, Evelia paused for a mont and even subconsciously let out a rather cute "Hmm."
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing... I just feel that you, Miss... look a bit familiar..."
Evelia felt like she had seen this face sowhere before, but sothing also seed off. No matter how she tried to recall, she couldn't rember where exactly she had seen this face.
"E-V-E-L-I-A?"
Just then, Amya's slightly resentful voice rang out. Evelia hurriedly turned her head to see Amya looking at her with a face full of warm "smiling" expression, as if blaming her for staring so directly at another girl.
"Ti is almost up! If we don't leave now, we'll be late. Making others wait isn't a good habit!"
"Eh!? I know, Amya! Stop dragging , I can walk by myself!!!"
"Um..."
The white-haired girl raised her hand, wanting to say sothing more, but Evelia had already been dragged away by Amya... Helplessly, she could only shake her head with a bitter smile and say to herself with so regret, "She said I look familiar? Really, I wanted to ask her if she's seen soone who looks like sowhere..."
"Lady Saint, we've finally found you!"
Just then, several clerics wearing Holy Church robes ran over and spoke to the white-haired girl with great respect.
"Bishop Sauron is still waiting for you at the grand cathedral! Calculating the ti, the two invited young ladies should be arriving soon. Please co with us back to the cathedral as soon as possible."
"Sigh, understood... What bad luck. I originally wanted to use the remaining ti to search the city for any clues about Lina, but ended up wasting so much ti on a bunch of scamrs..."
Our dear Saint complained verbally but still obediently got into the car with the clerics beside her. Soon she would need to et with an angel and a young miss with quite a talent for magic. If possible, she also needed to try her best to recruit that magic user to the Church's side.
And such a eting would inevitably be quite formal. She would need to change out of her casual clothes...
Not long after the Saint left, a small white figure slowly poked its head out from the corner of the street, looking in the direction where the Church's car had disappeared with lingering fear, mumbling to itself:
"I (Church profanity)... Why is that dead woman Jasmine here? Looking at her appearance... she's not here specifically to catch and bring back, right? No, I can't be caught by that dead woman. Damn it, has my sweet daily life with Noren finally encountered its biggest crisis!? No, I will never go back to the Church with her! My body and heart already belong to Noren! Besides, haven't I already given up my position as the Saint-in-training and let her have the title of Saint? That damn Jasmine, what exactly are you planning!?"
"Um... Miss Lina... are you okay?"
Behind Lina, the elf miss Alice was looking at Lina with confusion as she kept mumbling to herself with a serious expression. Originally, they had co out on behalf of the maid Lola, who needed to do a deep cleaning of the mansion, to buy so of Noren's favorite small cakes. But who knew that the mont they arrived at the cake shop, Lina instantly puffed up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, dragging Alice to hide behind the cake shop and occasionally peeking out to look around. Alice was so scared she thought the Descent Faction had co back.
"But... weren't those the succubus... no, the demon miss and the angel miss over there just now? They seed to be heading toward the grand cathedral? How strange... Why would Miss Evelia, a demon, go to the Holy Church's territory? Is she going there to beco a nun?"
Alice couldn't figure it out. She was just a hundred-year-old underage elf, that's all. She couldn't think through such complicated matters.
......
"Alright, we've arrived at the cathedral. Fufu, is there anything uncomfortable with your body?"
"Hmm? Why? My body is perfectly fine?"
In front of the solemn white cathedral, Evelia and Amya stood by the fountain in the cathedral square. From here, they had the perfect angle to take in the entire front view of the cathedral.
The entire cathedral occupied a huge area, and its height was enough to rival other modern buildings. As a symbol of the Holy Church's authority, the Wangyou Grand Cathedral could be counted as one of the top cathedrals in all of China. It was a model of Gothic religious architecture, an extrely rare five-section building, and the high tower at its top pointed straight toward the sky! Just looking at it gave people a feeling of shock that left them speechless. It was also an extrely famous tourist attraction within Wangyou City.
And for such an important stronghold to the Holy Church like the Wangyou Grand Cathedral, its surroundings were naturally filled with sacred blessings symbolizing god-given magic. For ordinary people, simply basking in the sunlight here allowed them to feel relaxation and joy from within. But for races that leaned toward the darker side, like demons and the Blood Clan, they would instinctively feel disgust toward the atmosphere here.
This was also why Amya was quite worried about whether Evelia, as a demon, would be affected by the cathedral's sacred aura.
The risk of a demon entering a cathedral was no joke.
However, looking at Evelia's silly expression, she didn't seem to be affected by the grand cathedral's sacred aura at all...
Perhaps it was because Evelia was of mixed blood?
Amya guessed.
