After hearing what he said, Beatrice lowered her head and looked at her Sword of Dawn without making any move.
"Don't you listen to the instructor? Draw your sword and attack."
His voice carried a hint of majesty, and Beatrice drew out her sword almost instinctively, and then stabbed the opponent fiercely.
With a bang, Beatrice was stunned. Her sword was blocked by a dagger, or fighting dagger, in the opponent's hand.
Then she realized who she was attacking, and just as she was about to sheath her sword, the opponent's dagger suddenly stabbed her. She subconsciously swung her sword to block.
In the room of lightning and flint, the weapons of both sides collided more than ten times. Finally, with a click, Beatrice's sword came out of her hand and fell into the fountain, splashing water droplets.
"It seems a little dusty, let it be washed."
Akulduna put away the fighting dagger and turned to look at Beatrice, who was biting her lower lip and seemed a little aggrieved.
"This shouldn't be at your level, little Beatrice."
Beatrice pursed her lips, her cheeks bulged slightly, and after a few seconds of silence, she suddenly retorted:
"I'm not young anymore."
Akulduna chuckled, shook his head, twisted his waist, reached out to pick up the sword from the spring water, and then shook it gently to shake off the water drops on it.
"Your sword."
When he reached over, Beatrice gently held her sword and put it back into its sheath. She wanted to ask what happened just now, but she couldn't speak, and she knew it would be rude.
But she just wanted to ask...
It was Akulduna who spoke first.
"How are you doing during this time?"
Beatrice nodded slightly.
"Fortunately, the people are very pious and there are not that many corrupt elements."
"I'm asking you."
Beatrice's eyes lit up.
"Am...am I alone?"
"If I want to ask other people, I will ask them myself."
"I...I'm okay. I just pray, go on duty, and train every day...that's all."
After calming down a bit, Beatrice decided to be bold.
"Instructor, Theresa just now..."
Akulduna looked at her, his eyes seemed to be able to see through her soul and thoughts, and then smiled slightly.
"She asked me how many days I could stay here, and I said I would leave soon if I couldn't stay a few more days."
"Is this so..."
Beatrice was also a little disappointed. She also hoped that this swordsmanship instructor could stay longer.
But the other party then changed the subject.
"But I told her that you might have to leave later."
"We? leave?"
Beatrice looked very puzzled.
"The Sisters of the Black Flame Rose will follow your... Holy Mother and lead part of the core of the Order to an unfamiliar galaxy to establish another branch of the Holy Order there. The Holy See here will be represented by four chief priests.
Management, but they only belong to the Legion Priory."
In fact, there were some names that Beatrice didn't understand, but she roughly understood the content, and then asked a very crucial question.
"What about you, instructor?"
Akulduna tilted his head slightly and said with a smile that fascinated Beatrice:
"I should be with you all the way. You won't be afraid anymore, right?"
Beatrice blinked, and the previous haze was gone, and she showed a rare warm smile.
"How could it be possible? This is great! I...I still have many questions about swordsmanship that I would like to ask you for advice!"
Then she looked towards the marble edge of the fountain where Akulduna was sitting. The other person noticed her gaze and patted the edge.
"Sit down when you are tired of standing."
"Um."
Beatrice carefully sat down next to Akulduna, about an arm's length away from him, but it was enough to make her heart pound like a deer.
"Instructor, is this... the Holy Mother's decision?"
"Ha, if this is your Holy Mother's decision, why am I here?"
As he said that, Akulduna raised his head and looked at the towering spire of the Notre Dame Palace. Beatrice also raised her head immediately and murmured:
"Is this... the decision of the Lord of the Holy Flame?"
"The sect organization here in the Bracato galaxy has been established and stabilized, and the missionary work on the five colonial planets will soon be completed. I have thought about the Nessen galaxy for a long time, and the original state religion sect is really ineffective.
In order to adapt to the unified management that will follow, we have decided to spread the Shengyan Order there as well, and you may have to work hard for a while."
In an exquisite bedroom with dim lighting, Soshyan, who was simply wearing a robe and exposing his strong chest, leaned against the soft bedside and examined the data pad in his hand. This room was not luxurious, but the style was very elegant.
The decorative style is somewhat similar to that of the Alexey family's old house at Neisen No. 4. There are small lights distributed like stars on the bedroom spire, and the huge windows around it can see the charming night lights of the entire cathedral.
The data board lists the development of the Holy Flame Religion over the years, including income and the appointment and dismissal of senior personnel.
"...Although the state religion has various precepts comparable to the number of imperial laws, the management of academic affairs has long been in chaos, with a mixture of good and bad. In addition, the pope is almost 'imprisoned' on Terra. In a sense, the entire state religion is almost
An out-of-control state. Although I have always criticized this aspect in the past, there is really no better substitute for ideological things. It can only be restrained by a more complete, stricter, and more strictly managed religious order. I can rest assured, in
After you leave, this place will be under the overall responsibility of the Legion Hermitage, and after the establishment of the order of Nathan IV, the two parties will be merged for unified management."
"Hmm--"
"As for the Sisters of the Black Flame Rose... only the recruitment department and the training department will remain here, and the other personnel will follow you. After all, the work is still very heavy, and you also need someone to protect you."
After a moment of pause, Soshyan breathed a sigh of relief, and then gently slid the data pad with his finger.
"Well... the circulation system of promethium coins in the Bracato galaxy has basically been established. It's all thanks to you. You've been busy over there, but you can't do it without this, whether it's taxation or business.
It's inseparable from it, and no one around me seems to be very good at this field except you. Ha, speaking of it, those Hearthborn are all eyeing this, but I didn't agree. I remember you said that currency can be
Pulling the lever of productivity may also become a tool used by the enemy to deal with us, so I will definitely be more cautious... You have been busy for so long, so you should take a break during this time."
At this moment, he suddenly thought of something and stopped looking at the data pad. After a few seconds, he said softly:
"That place... was found again. I told Veronica about it and she didn't object. Now I just have to wait for a while..."
Suddenly he frowned, took a breath, and then tilted his head to the right, with a look of helplessness on his face.
"Yes, yes, it will be soon... I also have a lot of things waiting to be dealt with now. I will go to the Trace of Victory after the auction in the Naison Galaxy. After that, I have to hold a meeting to vote on the joining of the Relic Chapter, etc.
Maybe I will have some free time after finishing these things, and then... um, when will I not count my words?"
At this moment, a slender hand grabbed the data board from one side and threw it directly to the ground. Sosh raised his eyebrows, grabbed the slender waist and turned over suddenly.
Soon the house was filled with beauty again...
A week later, the Sisters of the Black Flame Rose followed their Holy Mother aboard a huge battleship named the Storm, and set off to an unfamiliar galaxy to spread the glory of the Lord of the Holy Flame.
