Chapter 68 Backstab(1/2)
Putting her hand on her chest, Sister Celine hesitated and said: "Why... why can't it be done just because I am a candidate for the Holy Maiden?"
She was thinking about the possibility that she could knock down the Calvinist if he forced her to stay.
Will the self-defense techniques you learned at [Free City Academy] finally come in handy?
"Because you have the remaining power of the holy ritual in your body." University scholar Calvin said sternly: "This power can better help me heal Robert."
"Robert?" Sister Selien was startled, and subconsciously looked at the seriously injured person on the table, "He?"
“Robert is my nephew.” The Calvin scholar said something that shocked the nun. “Perhaps it was the guidance of faith that allowed you to bring Robert to me...Sister, I need the power in your body.”
Sister Selien shook her head hesitantly: "I'm sorry, I... I don't understand very well. Besides, there are many candidates for the Holy Maiden, do you definitely need me?"
She didn't want to get involved in trouble, but if it was to save people... [Sage], she had to do this.
"You are not necessarily needed, but you just happen to be here." The Calvin scholar said directly: "Every girl who has participated in the Holy Maiden Ceremony and finally passed the Holy Rite Baptism, the power of the Holy Rite in their bodies will stay for a short time.
, gets weaker and weaker over time, and finally disappears. This process usually takes two to three years. Of course there are many such holy girl reserves, but you are right in front of me, do you understand, nun."
"He...Mr. Robert's condition is very serious?"
"Yes, it's very serious." Scholar Calvin nodded: "The ointment I applied to him can only delay it for a while. I need this little time to find a girl who has the power of the holy ritual left in her body. A nun.
, I hope it’s you I find. In fact, I didn’t even have hope that Robert might not make it to dawn.”
“What should I do?” Sister Celine took a deep breath with a determined expression.
“Don’t you even ask about the cause and effect?” Calvin wrote solemnly.
Sister Selien smiled bitterly and said: "Mr. Calvin, didn't you already say that I don't have the first choice? But, I just participated in saving people, and then I left immediately and continued with my first choice. Otherwise, I just participated in saving people, and then I left immediately and continued with my first choice. Otherwise
, I’m afraid I can only use those self-defense techniques on you that I have never used before. So, what should I do?”
The Calvinist said: "Come here and hold Robert's hand. I will help you activate the remaining power of the holy ritual in your body... hurry up."
He stepped aside.
Sister Celine took another deep breath, gritted her teeth, stepped forward resolutely, and followed the Calvin scholar's instructions, holding Robert's palm with both hands.
“Now? Start praying as usual.”
The nun nodded, and soon she held Robert's palm and put it against her forehead, and whispered: "Although we don't know each other, I hope you are safe and sound. Poor man...Amen"
She slowly closed her eyes.
Scholar Calvin looked at Sister Celine differently and asked abruptly: "How come you were only fifth in the last class?"
The nun's face was calm and she said: "I'm not one of God's favored ones? My prayer has always been weak... Yes, does it matter?"
"It doesn't matter." The Calvin scholar shook his head and then said seriously: "Let's get started."
"good."
The nun closed her eyes again and prayed with her heart. At this time, the Calvinist stood behind the nun.
I saw a broken blade suddenly slipped from his sleeve... Holding the half-broken blade in his hand, the Calvin scholar murmured something, then his eyes narrowed, and he stabbed the broken blade directly.
Entered behind Sister Celine.
The stabbing blow from the back caused Selien to open her eyes suddenly, and the huge sting was even accompanied by a terrible feeling of withdrawal.
Under the dual effects of the momentary sharp pain and the sense of detachment, Sister Celine seemed to see a gorgeous world.
The body of consciousness, in the gorgeous and dazzling world, seemed to fall into the cold lake water instantly... She felt that her body began to sink and was swallowed by the abyss at the bottom of the lake.
Sister Celine was instantly swallowed up by the feeling of fear and suffocation.
die.
…
ha!!
Take a deep breath.
Driven by instinct, she greedily breathed in fresh air for her body that was squeezed to the extreme...Sister Celine even started coughing violently.
She choked on the water...she woke up from a very shallow pool!
The pure white world, and the endless pool of water that was just below the knees of a normal person...Sister Celine got up in horror.
Out of the pure white, it was hard for her to even see anything.
However, in the pool at her feet, it seemed that she was not the only one... Under the swaying water, Sister Celine looked at a person lying under the pool in disbelief.
Many, many people, densely packed and neatly arranged, stretched out at her feet.
Sister Celine wanted to scream, but she quickly covered her mouth... It was so quiet here that you could even hear the heartbeat clearly!
“You are right to be able to exercise restraint.”
"who!"
Faced with the sudden sound, Sister Selien looked around nervously... In front of and behind her, there was no second person waking up from the pool.
“Close your eyes first.”
"Why!"
"If you don't want to usher in real death, do as I say. I will pull you into my room... Hurry, they are coming." The voice sounded directly in Sister Celine's mind again. sounded.
The voice sounded a little urgent... Sister Selien had no choice but to follow the other party's prompts, slowly closed her eyes, then took a deep breath, pinched her nose, and sank into the pool again. .
"open one's eyes."
Hearing this, Sister Celine quickly opened her eyes... but was shocked again by what she saw!
She actually appeared in a church at this time. Why did she suddenly appear in the church again? At this time, she was even pinching her nose.
“Welcome to the mezzanine of consciousness.”
The sound that sounded this time seemed to have an entity. Sister Selien turned around suddenly and saw that the person standing in front of her was a woman who was only about her waist, with white hair, white eyebrows, and gray pupils. boy.
The boy was wearing a loose robe...it looked completely ill-fitting.
"Who are you?"
"You can call me..." The boy with white hair, white eyebrows and gray eyes smiled and said: "Medanzo."
“Medanzo?” Sister Celine frowned, as if she wanted to find information about this name.
But the boy in front of him smiled and said: "You have never heard of my name... You can only hear my name and my voice here, Sister Celine."
“You...you know me?” Sister Celine looked extremely surprised.
"I know you, I have witnessed your life, from your birth to your present." The boy named [Medanzo] nodded slowly: "I have witnessed every person born in the Kingdom of Holy Light.
"
"This... what on earth is this..." Sister Selien clenched her fists and put them on her chest, looking around the church in fear.
This church actually enshrines an angel.
An angel statue with 36 wings, and on the feathers of each wing, there is an eye... countless eyes!
"I said, this is the mezzanine of consciousness." The boy said slowly again: "The correct term is that it is a transit place between the petitioner tower and the destiny system."
"How...how did I appear here?" Sister Selien hesitated: "I know the destiny system, but...but what is the petitioner tower?"
The boy said: "Before answering your questions, are you ready to know all this... Calvin should have told you. If you don't cause trouble, you just need to stay here peacefully.
Soon you will wake up again. Then you will leave Calvin's house and forget what happened tonight."
"I……"
The huge thirst for knowledge was frantically impacting the persistence in the nun's heart... It was as if instinct was driving her to open her mouth and ask about everything the boy knew.
On the 36-winged angel statue, the countless eyes seemed to have been opened, and they were all staring at her, waiting for her answer.
Finally, with a decision in her heart, Sister Celine breathed out slowly, "I...I just want to save people."
The boy with white hair and white eyebrows was not surprised by the answer, but he suddenly asked: "You don't even know what Calvin and Robert did, whether it was good or bad. Just to save people, don't you care about good or bad... Maybe,
Calvin and Robert are doing some things that are not very good for the Kingdom of Holy Light. And if you save people, you may become an accomplice."
Sister Celine shook her head, "Although it was the first time I met Mr. Robert and the first time I came to Mr. Calvin's home, I can feel that they... love life very much and have a lot of love in their hearts.
Pure belief that they are not bad people."
"Oh?" The boy nodded, and then said: "You have a very keen sense, which is a talent...otherwise, your consciousness wouldn't be able to come here. Okay, I know your choice. Sai
Sister Leanne, stay here before you wake up, they can't find them here."
“They...refer to?”
The boy smiled casually and said: "Of course it's the will guards of the Destiny System. They always like to bite me and won't let go."
Sister Celine opened her mouth, subconsciously wanting to ask something.
But the boy blinked at her at this moment, and Sister Celine understood instantly, and then pursed her lips tightly.
The boy also showed a smile.
“I...can I pray here?” Sister Celine suddenly asked.
