"Sorry, I didn't know that would be the case." Ryan said politely to Lumian.
Lumian smiled "hehe" and said:
"Is it worth another glass of 'Green Fairy'?"
Before Ryan could answer, he changed the subject:
"Outlanders, what do you come to Kordu to buy wool and leather?"
Many residents of Kordu make a living by shepherding sheep.
Ryan breathed a sigh of relief silently, seized this opportunity and said:
"We came to visit the priest Guillaume Bennet of the Church of the 'Eternal Blazing Sun' in your village, but he is neither at home nor in the church."
"Needless to say which church it belongs to, there is only one church in Kordu." Pierre, who drank Ryan's free absinthe, kindly reminded him.
The other locals around the bar were drinking their own wine, and no one answered Ryan's question. It seemed that the name represented some kind of taboo or authority and could not be discussed casually.
Lumian took a sip of wine, thought for a few seconds and said:
"I can probably guess where the priest is. Do you need me to take you there?"
"Then I will trouble you." Liya was not polite.
Ryan followed and nodded:
"Wait until you finish this glass."
"Okay." Lumian picked up the glass and gulped down the light green liquid.
He put the cup down and stood up:
"Let's go."
"Thank you so much." Ryan greeted Lumian while beckoning Valentine and Leah to get up.
A smile appeared on Lumian's face:
"It's okay, you listened to my story, I drank your wine again, we are friends now, right?"
"Yes." Ryan nodded slightly.
The smile on Lumian's face became brighter, and he stretched out his arms, as if to give the other party a hug.
At the same time, he enthusiastically said:
"Nice to meet you, my cabbages."
Ryan, who was about to receive a hug, froze:
"cabbage?"
His expression was blank and embarrassed.
The same goes for Valentine and Leah.
"This is our pet name for friends. People in the Darliege region know it. It has been like this for hundreds of years." Lumian explained with an innocent face, "Trust me, my cabbages."
Liya couldn't help but looked around, making a tinkling sound.
Pierre and the others nodded one after another, indicating that Lumian did not lie this time, but the smiles on their faces seemed to say that they were very happy to see that foreigners could not stand such an affectionate title.
Lumian touched his chin:
"Don't you like it?
"Then I'll change it to something else, and it's also used to call a friend.
"My rabbits, my chickens, my ducks, my lambs, which one do you like?"
Ryan's expression hardened, and Valentine frowned.
Liya replied angrily and funny:
"Cabbage, at least it sounds normal."
Huh, Ryan breathed out quietly, pressed Valentine's elbow, nodded slightly and said:
"Sounds like precious things at home."
Before Lumian could respond, he turned his body and said to the bartender:
"Buy the bill."
"2 Filkin." The bartender glanced at the glasses on the bar.
While Ryan was paying the bill, Lia changed the subject:
"The name Lumian is rare."
"At least it's better than Pierre and Guillaume." Lumian laughed, "If you call Pierre here, at least one-third of the people will respond to you, and then call Guillaume, Another third of the people responded to you, and this..."
He pointed to the thin middle-aged man who was drinking free wine:
"His full name is Pierre Guillaume."
Liya smiled in response to the occasion, and she seemed to have fooled the topic of cabbage.
Before leaving the tavern, Lumian glanced back.
"What's wrong?" Leah asked curiously.
Lumian replied thoughtfully:
"Not only you three foreigners came to the tavern today, but one came before, but I don't know when they left."
"What does it look like?" Ryan looked upright.
Lumian recalled:
"A lady with a very temperament. She looks like she is from a big city. I can't tell what she looks like. How about I draw it for you?"
"Can you draw?" Liya asked cautiously after knowing Lumian's nature.
Lumian laughed:
"Won't."
"Then let's go to the priest first." Ryan stopped the topic.
There were no street lights in Kordu Village at night, but it was not pitch black. The stars twinkling in the sky brought a quiet twilight, and together with the yellowish light from the windows of some houses on both sides of the road, the group of four walked smoothly.
Not long after, they arrived at the "Eternal Sun" church next to the village square.
On a dark night, the most magnificent building in this village seems to melt into the night, a little hazy.
"We've been here before, no one." Valentine said with a frown, who had been indifferent all the time.
Lumian smiled and said:
"The fact that there is no one at the main entrance does not mean that there are no other places."
While speaking, he led the three of Ryan around the front of the church to a place near the cemetery.
There is a dark brown wooden door here.
Before Ryan could knock on the door, Lumian reached out and fiddled with the keyhole a few times.
With a creak, he opened the side door.
"This, isn't it polite?" Ryan frowned.
"We have come to visit the parish priest, not to deal with him."
"Okay." Lumian was very receptive to other people's correct opinions.
He closed the wooden door and knocked lightly.
"Hey, is anyone there? I came in without answering." His voice was low, as if he was talking to himself at night.
There was silence in the church.
The next second, Lumian pushed the door open again and pointed inside:
"go in."
Ryan originally wanted to refuse, but looking at the deep darkness behind the door, after a few seconds of meditation, he exchanged glances with his companion.
"Okay." He took a step forward, slowly but firmly.
Lia and Valentine followed closely behind.
At this time, Liya's two boots and the four small silver bells on both sides of the veil did not make a sound.
In the gloomy environment, the four of them moved forward.
Suddenly, Ryan stopped and said in a low voice:
"There seems to be some sound?"
"Yes." Lumian agreed deeply.
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly pushed aside, and opened another door with a bang.
It seemed to be the confessional room of a church. Dim starlight streamed in, revealing a simple low bed and a naked, strong man.
The mature man was pressing on a white woman's body.
For a moment, everyone was stunned, including the strong man and the lady under him.
A few seconds later, the strong man turned his head and roared at Ryan and the others:
"Son of a bitch, you're undermining the operation of the Holy Church!"
In the reverberating roar, Lumian, who had moved behind Ryan and the others, waved his hand, and said with a smile very fast:
"It seems that we have found the curate, my cabbages, see you tomorrow!"
In the middle of speaking, he turned around and ran towards the side door, and the words behind were fluttering in the wind, getting lower and lower.
At this moment, a sentence appeared in the minds of Liya, Ryan and Valentine at the same time.
What the middle-aged man named Pierre Guillaume said:
"This kid is the most prankster in the village, you must stay away from him..."
...
Under the starlight falling from the sky, Lumian whistled.
With his hands in his pockets, he walked leisurely on the country road.
"The curate is indeed having an affair with Madame Pouaris.
"These outsiders have some identities at first glance. The priest of the church must not dare to do anything to them. He must pay a heavy price to prevent the reputation of cheating in the church from spreading, right?
"Hmph, who made him always want to play Aurora's idea, I've been waiting for this opportunity for a long time..."
While muttering inwardly, Lumian returned to his home on the edge of the village.
This is a semi-ground two-story house, the first floor is a part-time living room and kitchen with an oven and a large stove.
"Aurora! Aurora!" Lumian shouted as he walked up the stairs.
No one responded to him.
There are three rooms and a bathroom on the second floor, and the doors are all open at this time.
Lumian glanced one after another, but did not see her sister.
After thinking for a while, he came to the end of the corridor and climbed up to the roof from the ladder erected there.
The orange-red roof was enveloped by the diffuse night, and a figure sat in the center, hugging his knees, quietly looking at the starry sky.
This is an unusually beautiful woman with long, thick blond hair, light blue eyes, and bright facial features.
At this time, she focused her eyes on the sky, looking at the flickering little bit of light, with a quiet expression, like a statue.
Lumian did not speak, moved to the side of the woman, and sat down as well.
He raised his head slightly, looked at the distant mountains and forests, and heard the sound of a gust of wind blowing through the trees.
After an unknown amount of time passed, the woman raised her arms and stretched her waist without any image.
"Aurora, I don't understand what's so good about such a view, it's worth your frequent visits to the roof." Lumian made a voice.
"Call me sister!" Aurora raised her finger and tapped Lumian on the head.
Then, she sighed, her expression turned dark and she said:
"A philosopher once said that there are only two things worthy of awe in this world, one is the morality in the heart, and the other is the starry sky above the head."
Lumian glanced at her sister's slightly melancholy face, and smiled deliberately:
"I will answer this question, Emperor Roselle said it!"
"Pfft..." Aurora laughed out loud.
She sniffed immediately, and raised her beautiful golden eyebrows:
"Drinking again!"
"It's called communication." Lumian talked about what happened just now, "I met three foreigners..."
Aurora couldn't help laughing:
"I'm really afraid that the parish priest will be frightened into some kind of disease."
The next second, her face became serious:
"Lumian, don't provoke the curate anymore. He won't do anything to me. It would be troublesome to replace it with a new one."
"But I hate him when I see him..." Before Lumian finished speaking, Aurora stood up.
She looked down at her younger brother, smiled and said:
"Okay, time for bed, my drunk brother."
While speaking, Auror threw it casually, spilling a little silver dust.
Then she floated up, like a bird, slowly flew down from the roof, and turned into the window on the second floor.
Lumi watched it quietly, and shouted anxiously:
"And me?"
"Climb down by yourself!" Aurora in the house replied mercilessly.
Lumian curled his lips, and the smile on his face disappeared little by little.
Looking at the rapidly extinguishing silver light spots in the night, he sighed softly and said to himself:
"I don't know when I will have such extraordinary power..."
