After all, Sally is just a girl who is only sixteen years old. No matter what she has experienced before, her age is here, and the questions she can think about are ultimately emotional.

The little girl's random thoughts occasionally simulate some scenes that make her sad in her mind - will he give up this promise because he cannot enter the "Rose Cross Temple"? Will he have left Hollier City now?

The mentality of worrying about gains and losses has made Sally not sleep well these days. Speaking of which, her ability is indeed much stronger than Roddy imagined. In just fifteen days, she had a temporary contact with her subordinates who had been buried deep in Hollier City, which made her not completely passive when facing Frances.

But Sally also understood that she could not let someone find Roddy openly, otherwise Francis, who had been eyeing him, would probably have trouble with Roddy as soon as possible. The only thing she could do was to wait silently here, at least before she confirmed Francis' plan and whereabouts, she could not walk out of the temple.

Will he come?

When she walked to the main hall of the church without realizing it, Sally would always look up at the colorful window, her fingers couldn't help but hold them tightly, and sighed softly...

It's the sixteenth day, today... he won't come either.

She thought so, and was about to turn around and leave, but she heard a few conversations coming from the front door of the main hall-

"The adventurer has important news to be returned with Bishop Benjamin, who has the token of Priest Nilda in his hand."

"Prince Nilda? He hasn't already-"

"So things are urgent, so you need to notify the Bishop immediately."

It sounded like the guard outside the church brought an adventurer to the porch of the monastery, and he was going to meet Bishop Benjamin. Sally turned around and raised her eyebrows in confusion - she remembered the name "Prince Nilda", which was Bishop Benjamin's "desired disciple". She had met the other party half a year ago. Later, she heard that the other party mysteriously disappeared after a mission to leave the city. At that time, the temple sent many people to investigate, but they all returned in vain.

Forget it, what does this have to do with yourself?

Shaking her head, Sally was ready to turn around and leave with a disappointed moment. For a moment, she found that she wanted Roddy to stand at the church gate and smile calmly at her - but now she thought about it, that was just her own delusion.

"Bike Benjamin agreed to the meeting request, adventurer, you can enter here. May the gods behold you."

The sound of conversation in the distance was vaguely heard Sally's ears, and the words at the end were one of the doctrines of the "Temple", that is, "everything is taken by God."

The young girl did not look back, but she still walked forward, not caring about the approaching guards and adventurers behind her, and even a little absent-minded.

"By the way, Lord Priest, I have another request, I hope you can agree."

"Tell me, adventurer."

The middle-aged priest had a peaceful voice, and the clergy in the temple were gentle and helpful, but Sally felt that the adventurer's voice seemed familiar...

"You know, too, that I am an adventurer who happened to pass by Hallier City. Lord Kirk and I had some friendship. He happened to ask me to give me something a few days ago - for Miss Sally."

"Oh? Miss Sally?" The middle-aged priest turned his head and looked at Sally who was walking by not far away, and whispered: "That's right, if there is anything, you can just hand it over to her."

The voice of conversation not far away echoed in her ears, but Sally did not turn around immediately. She continued to walk forward, trying to maintain her normal posture, but no one could see her fingers trembling slightly.

She understood that she could never make a familiar attitude to the other party. In this unfamiliar environment, a little flaw could lead to unpredictable consequences.

The footsteps behind approached, and a plain and familiar tone sounded behind him—"Miss Sally, please stay."

Yes... it's Roddy's voice is right.

Although I confirmed everything in my heart, the girl who had already matured her heart took a deep breath, turned around slowly, lowered her eyes and said softly: "I am, please...who are you?"

The eyes looked at the words, and their posture was like the first time they met. Although Roddy had approved a wide cloak, the exquisite and unique leather boots and gloves still lit up her eyes. Sally would never forget the unique characteristics of Kemara beast scales, so when her eyes freeze Roddy's face, she was in a moment of loss of consciousness, so that her words stuttered slightly.

The gray linen cloak was covered with his body, and the new suit and leather armor seemed to make him instantly leave the scout captain who was covered in mud, carrying a horn bow and a scimitar in Sally's impression. He remembered Roddy's introduction to his "face was cursed by witchcraft but was actually thirty-seven years old", and suddenly realized that the other party's words did not seem to be nonsense.

The person in front of you should not be a scout in a village, but a powerful adventurer with rich experience.

For a long time, Roddy's image in Sally's heart has changed again and again, but there has never been a contour that allows her to see clearly. Captain Scout, Adventurer, Mercenary, Knight, or the descendant of a certain nobleman?

What he did was hard for ordinary people to imagine. He led Sally out of the siege. Even if he had been the powerful guardian knights under his father, he would probably not be able to do this.

Sally felt her heart beating very fast, and her face that she tried to maintain a calmness could hardly be tense-the corners of her mouth wanted to raise, but she trembled slightly because of restraint. She clenched her fingers and stared at Roddy's face tightly, as if waiting for him to show a familiar smile.

However, Roddy's serious face had not changed at all, only a constant indifference and rigidity, as if he didn't know Sally at all.

"I'm glad to see you, Miss Sally." Roddy's eyes seemed to have no focus, as if he was just looking at a sculpture, "Lord Kirk happened to have something for me to bring to you. It was you left in Fenx Village a few days ago. Because Lord Lord could not come in person, I can only bring his blessings to you."

As he said that, he reached out to take out a cloth bag, bent down and served with both hands, with a respectful posture.

Sally's eyes remained on Roddy's face, a little stunned. It was not until a few seconds later that she understood Roddy's intention--slowly reach out to take the cloth bag, thanked the "Rose Cross" believers with the etiquette they deserve, and then whispered: "Thank you, brave adventurer."

"A handful."

Roddy turned his face and looked to the side without any emotion, no longer looking at Sally.

In the eyes of the soldiers next to him, the behavior of this adventurer was normal. In today's era, sending a letter and running a leg seemed to be the main function of these idle adventurers, so his words did not arouse any doubts from the priest next to him. Because all the situation is reasonable and there is no doubt.

Roddy had no intention of continuing to talk. He bent down deeply after Sally took the package, and after saluting, he turned around and signaled the priest to find Bishop Benjamin, without paying too much attention to Sally's intentions.

In this way, the two passed by and held a "meeting" in a way that Sally could not imagine. Since the last meeting, Sally found that she could not even say anything extra to the other party, but could only watch the other party's figure gradually fade away...

She felt a little indescribable aggrieved and stuffy. Her fingers tightened, and then she remembered that she was holding the cloth bag that Roddy had just given her. She flipped over and took out the soft armor shirt with a gentle movement.

The dark blue tones, soft texture, and the Kemara beast scales have low-key and restrained reflections after processing, and the hand-sewn traces on them are exquisite and neat. Although Sally doesn't know how much effort it takes to make such a leather armor, she suddenly feels inexplicable - this shirt... must have been made by Roddy himself.

A piece of parchment fell from the bag and Sally bent down to pick it up. Seeing the words above, she pursed her lips slightly, and tears appeared inexplicably in her eyes.

"Don't you even want to say goodbye? Bastard..."

.

"This is indeed the ring of Priest Nilda. Adventurer, where did you get it?"

Bishop Benjamin looked at the ancient silver ring in his hand, slowly raised his gaze, and asked Roddy in front of him.

"In the alley in Campbell, I was about to go to the Mercenary Guild. This ring was at the exit of the sewer." Roddy's expression was still the slightly cold look, "Because I had seen the emblem on the ring in front of the door of the 'Sanctuary', I rushed over immediately."

"Thank you, adventurer, but you have to understand that the Temple will spare no expense in order to thoroughly investigate this matter." The old man slightly carried his hands behind his back, his eyes narrowed, as if Roddy's eyes were a little flashing, "That is to say, if you have other connections with this matter, we will not let it go."

"I have considered these issues before coming here, Lord Bishop. I am just an adventurer who hopes to exchange these clues for some rewards, and there is nothing to deceive you."

Roddy lowered her head, showing a compassionate and respectful look without any unnecessary expression.

"This is of course, the 'Temple' will severely punish all evil forces, and will also favor those brave and upright young people, adventurers, thank you for your clues."

This is a saying of seeing off guests. Roddy stood up and left consciously, and did not ask what the other party would reward him. He turned around and followed the guard to leave.

"The Bishop is very grateful for your contribution to the monastery."

Not long after walking, another guard walked over with a small wooden box in his hand and handed it to Roddy - he took it with both hands, without looking at what was inside, and left the monastery without looking at it.

Along the way, Roddy did not see Sally. For him, this seemed to mean that Sally already understood her situation and the current relationship between the two. I think the other party's brain is quite smart and he will not do anything stupid.

I hope she can grow up as soon as possible before the inner part of the "Sanctuary" is split.

Roddy sighed silently in his heart. He came here today because he finally asked about Sally's information about the Rose Cross Temple in the tavern - for ordinary people, this place is not a place to go casually, but Roddy understood how to get here openly. That ring is the key.

"The Fallen Priest Nilda" is one of the famous long mission chains in Roddy's memory. The beginning of the mission chain is the ring near the sewer. Of course, only Roddy knows the location of this ring, and ordinary people have no way to detect it. Fortunately, this mission also existed two years ago, Roddy chose to use this mission chain to achieve the purpose of entering the monastery. Now he is lucky enough to directly meet Sally, which saves some trouble.
