Chapter 357
Lunch was held in the church restaurant, and Rafael, who reluctantly followed Ophelia, was also there.
When the accident first happened, she was still immersed in a special feeling. Now she found that apart from a faint connection, nothing else seemed to happen, so she no longer cared about it and just thought it was the influence of the energy of the ancient relics.
After everyone had lunch, the plates on the table were put away, and stacks of exquisite after-dinner snacks were brought to a few young people.
Willard asked kindly: "Rin, when do you plan to return to China?"
Rin took a spoonful of pudding and said: "There are still some things to deal with in the family. Naturally, the sooner the better. If Your Majesty doesn't mind, I want to go back to Gioral tomorrow."
Willard was not surprised at all, but asked concernedly what happened at home.
Rin thought for a while, it was quite difficult to tell about the Duke of Orland.
To say that he wants to kill and occupy the body of his "son"? Realize your dream of immortality?
Let's not talk about how many people can believe it, let's just say that the Pope and the Archbishop believe it. He also uses the detailed blocking wall obtained from the Ring Witch to block their mouths of inquiring, and then what?
At that time, the Holy See must have attached great importance to it and participated in it with great fanfare. Rin didn't know whether Queen Gioral would allow it if she led a force to intervene rashly.
After all, Jiolal is not a religious country like the Holy Empire. It only has respect for the goddess and does not have such high faith. It may not be willing to let the church's hand reach in.
This is on the one hand, and on the other hand, Qi Yu is using her power to investigate the entire Phoenix family, which will inevitably use some demons from her own camp. The church is particularly sensitive to demons, so don't do it then. Got into a fight with himself.
After careful consideration, Rin still had no intention of informing the church in advance.
In any case, this is a "family matter". The church is an external force and its influence on Gioral is not very good.
There is no need to recruit foreign aid for things you can do yourself.
"It's not like anything happened. I am the heir of the Phoenix family anyway, so I always have to deal with some family affairs."
Rin said a few words casually, and Willard did not continue to ask.
Diga suddenly said: "You have a special status now, and the capital of the Kingdom of Gioral and the family may not be safe. How about this, the six knights who followed you before can continue to follow you in the future?"
Rin suddenly remembered the situation of being followed wherever he went, and being embarrassed even if he wanted to kiss her, and he shook his head quickly.
"No! Don't worry, no one dares to touch me there."
Diga still refused to give up: "How can Your Highness be sure that there are no death-tellers or demons lurking among them? They must want to take revenge on you."
Willard is an experienced man and already knows why Rin is so resistant.
"How about secret protection? Don't worry, I will specifically explain to these people that they will not appear in front of you or disturb your life. They will only come out when there is danger. Of course, I can also order them to do something for you. Things like that.”
Rin still frowned, thought for a moment and said, "It's not... it's not possible, but I want absolute private space."
Diga said: "Your Majesty, you have to keep a distance and be fully protected. This is too difficult. You have to find a high-level assassin. I don't have assassins of that level."
This is put very euphemistically. In fact, they do not have the two classes of assassin and thief at all.
They are people of the Holy Light who are upright and disdain to associate with "despicable" assassins.
Raphael, who was listless, suddenly thought of something and quickly raised his hand: "How about I protect this guy! Your Majesty, the Archbishop, I'm friends with Stinky... Rin and Elise, and we can always stay together! "
It is impossible to truly protect, and she will take the opportunity to slip away. At most, if there is danger in the future, she will definitely come to help.
The dignified Thunder Sword user is still very loyal.
But as soon as she finished speaking, Ophelia hit her head hard. Rafael screamed in pain, holding his head and his face wrinkled together.
"Nonsense, just go back to your mother and don't think about it all day long. Besides, you're at level 40. It's good to protect yourself. Do you expect you to protect others? "
"What's wrong with level 40! I have a divine sword, and level 50 can't do anything to me!"
Then she received another blow on the head, forcing her to shut her mouth.
Rin was actually disgusted with her and agreed with Ophelia's view, but he still remembered his original decision to help her, so he didn't ridicule her.
At this time, Barbara said: "Actually, there is no need to worry so much. It's not a dragon's den or a tiger's den. Rin is protected by the Sword Master, so what's the problem?"
"The Sword Saint can't protect him all the time?" Diga retorted.
Xiye put down the cup with a serious expression: "When I go back, I will resign as a teacher in the college and always protect my brother."
"Then the queen..."
Elise said: "Mother will definitely agree. Xiao Lin is so important, and mother never forcibly goes against other people's wishes."
"I will always protect him." Fei Miao rarely spoke.
When they said this, the people in the church felt a little relieved.
"Besides, have you forgotten that I am also very strong?"
Rin raised his head unconvinced, with displeasure written all over his face.
Is there any mistake? This group of people is getting more and more outrageous. Do they all regard themselves as helpless children?
He is obviously very good at fighting, okay!
"Okay, okay, then I won't worry about it. Everything will be discussed after the canonization ceremony." Willard smiled and comforted.
This matter was settled, and Tiga couldn't say anything more, and everything came to an end for the time being.
Rin stayed in Shengdao City for a short time. After receiving the gift, he went to the departure area to pick up Qiyu early the next morning, boarded a ship specially prepared for them by the church, and set off again.
At this time, no one realized that the pet contract ceremony was actually successful.
Chapter 5 The Devil's Soft Rice is Delicious
It has been a whole month since the last time on the ship.
Rin stood on the deck again, blowing the sea breeze, but his mentality was completely different.
Last time he was full of expectations, this time he was full of pride.
"Little Rin, aren't you cold?"
Silly Roe Deer put his hands in his sleeves, with doubts in his cute big eyes.
She just saw Rin shrink his neck because of the cold, but she didn't know why Rin stood here stubbornly blowing the sea breeze.
"Stupid roe deer, I'm standing here thinking about something."
Rin certainly wouldn't say that he suddenly had a whim and was in high spirits, and simply wanted to watch the magnificent sea.
"Little princess, don't disturb the junior brother from thinking about life. I guess he will think until at least night, close the door quickly."
Qiyu's voice sounded afterwards, with a bit of yin and yang.
Another gust of cold wind blew, Lin sniffed, secretly thought it was not good, and quickly jumped down, got into the cabin, and dragged the silly roe deer in and closed the cabin door.
If he caught a cold, his wise image would collapse, and he would definitely be ridiculed by the dead fox for a long time.
"Tsk, why don't you continue to blow the sea breeze? You came in so quickly, it seems like less than ten minutes."
Qiyu leaned against the wall, teasing the little snake coiled on her wrist.
She followed Lin's advice and named the little snake Jelly.
Lin rolled his eyes at her, opened the door of one of the cabins and walked in.
The warm wind blew in, and all the people (beasts) in the room were sleeping lazily.
This cabin is one of the standard entertainment rooms of the battleship, and is currently requisitioned by Lin.
Fei Miao was lying flat on the sofa, with an Eevee lying on his belly. One person and one cat were sleeping.
Lin Wu Yue had fallen asleep holding a gem a long time ago, with his belly turned over, and his body shaking from time to time. I don’t know what he dreamed about.
Even Lightning was standing on a shelf beside him, with his eyes closed and his head nodding.
Lightning is the name Lin gave to Xiao Falcon. It is simple and does not require much thought, and it can summarize its specialties.
Staying in a warm room in winter does make people drowsy.
"Where is the stupid swordsman? Is he still in the training room?"
"Well, she is about to be promoted."
Qi Yu closed the door, sat down lazily on another sofa, kicked off his shoes and lay on his side, charming and seductive.
Rin and the silly roe deer also sat down, and soon they also felt a little sleepy.
Rin shook his head, suspecting that he was infected by the lazy hero, so he peeled a tangerine and put a slice into his mouth.
It was sour and sweet, cool, very refreshing, and dispelled some sleepiness. Rin split the remaining one into two and stuffed it into the mouths of Qiyu and Iris respectively.
Qiyu was reading the fourth volume of the Saint's Strange Tales with great interest.
Rin had nothing to do, so he took out the magic device and fiddled with it.
He won two magic devices in this competition. This one was a high-level magic device given by the champion of the individual competition. Only the champions of the individual and team competitions could get it. The quality of the one given in the hunting competition was worse, but it was just a good magic device among the intermediate ones.
The appearance of this high-level magic device in his hand was more like a hand crossbow, but the position of the crossbow was narrower.
It is heavy to hold, slightly blue-silver, metallic, with two built-in magic circuits, corresponding to one high-level magic in each of the two systems.
However, it can only be released once before entering a ten-minute cooling time. After ten times, you need to use magic source crystals to replenish magic.
According to the classification of the magic system, those below level 10 generally master elementary magic, those above level 10 begin to master low-level magic, those above level 20 master intermediate magic, and high-level magic corresponds to the range of 30-40.
For most students who are only level 20, high-level magic devices are enough for them to use for a long time.
Half of the students may stop at level 40 in their lifetime.
For Lin, he can beat those at level 30 or 40, so this can only be regarded as a transitional equipment, so he didn't care too much after getting it.
You should know that the dark gold magic card from Qiyu that he accidentally got at the beginning is converted to a level of 50 to 60.
Unfortunately, it is black magic, which is inherently flawed, and Qiyu doesn't like it, so it can only be used as a bookmark.
He threw the other intermediate defensive magic device directly to Christo, not even looking at it.
Originally, he was going to give this magic device to "him" as a performance reward, but unfortunately the other party refused to accept it.
Qi Yu glanced at the magic device in his hand and said with disdain: "What's so good about that broken thing."
"You also know it's broken. May I ask the almighty Demon King, when will you start refining the magic device for me as promised before? It seems that two months have passed."
Seeing that his goal was achieved, Lin put the magic device away.
Well, he took it out on purpose to seduce the Demon King.
Qiyu put down the book and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you yet, junior fellow, give me the materials. I thought you had given up?"
"What?"
Rin was surprised: "You still want me to come up with the materials? You didn't say anything at the time!?"
Naturally, Qi Yu would not admit that he had been slacking off, and said confidently: "This is the rule of the magic weapon world. Junior, you don't understand, right?"
"I know a hammer! I don't even know what materials I need! I suspect you are just making excuses!"
"Uh-huh, it's obvious that my junior wants to prostitute me for free, but he actually beats me up. It's too much. Uh-huh, you're going to cheat me out of all the materials I've worked so hard to save to exchange for milk powder."
She buried her head on the pillow and cried sadly, but unfortunately she didn't shed a single tear.
"You guy..."
Rin immediately gritted his teeth: "It's obvious that you are getting lazy. You said it's been a long time since you made alchemy and card making."
Silly Roe Deer immediately stood up and comforted Lin: "Xiao Lin, don't worry about the bad fox. I will take you to the vault to get it when you get back."
Rin rubbed her face: "That's royal property, don't take it randomly."
Qi Yu, who was pretending to be miserable, counted with his fingers and secretly sighed.
I really don’t know if I don’t tell you, and I’ll be shocked if I figure it out.
She actually hasn't touched alchemy or magic card making for three months, or even runes and formations... Oh, formations don't count, she at least drew one when she was unspelling Lina.
That was also the only time she used her deputy...
"That's right, I seem to have lost interest in many things recently. I haven't meditated for many days. I only have fun every day except dealing with official duties... To be honest, after the witchcraft incident ended, I resisted even dealing with official duties."
Qiyu sat up with a strange look on his face: "Is it possible that he really broke through to level 90, so he became lazy?"
When Rin heard this, she realized that this was really unusual.
Qiyu himself just has a lazy temperament, but he is still very diligent.
Alas, I suddenly had the illusion that I was the chief culprit for dragging a good student to play games, which caused his performance to decline.
He swallowed guiltily: "Yeah...why are you so lazy?"
