Chapter 607: Sister Ishruna Gurweger in the Painted World
However, this kind of thing was quickly forgotten by them, and they no longer cared about these problems. After all, in their opinion, Sakura's situation could only be regarded as abnormal, and their development was normal.
——Yes, that’s it. An unknown person who grew one centimeter taller in a certain decade also agreed and quietly liked it.

………
After walking along the mottled stone road for about ten minutes, Gray and the others saw the church standing not far in front of them.
To their surprise, the church seemed to be only four stories high at most. It was also a simple stone building with a somewhat Gothic architectural style.
But that's all. As the headquarters of the largest organization in the entire Ishruna world, this building is a bit too simple.
In their understanding, both the West and the East spare no effort on such important symbolic buildings, which is why there are so many wonders in the world.
Gray didn't have much idea about this. For her who was born in the countryside, before coming to London, it was rare to see even two-story buildings. The largest one was the church on the west side of the village.
"Surprised, aren't you?"
Sakura turned around and said with a smile, seeing through what Olga Marie was thinking.
"I had the same idea as you at first, but as I learned more about it, I found that this church is very interesting and completely different from what we usually know."
"I'm really curious to receive such a comment from you."
Olga Marie raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a smile. She knew her few friends, Sakura, quite well.
"You will understand what I mean when you meet Sister Gullweger later."
Sakura smiled and didn't say anything. Instead, she and Aya quickened their pace and walked to the front of the team.
The two tall, fully armed knights guarding the door of the church saw the arrival of Sakura and Aya. Red light shot out from the eye holes of their helmets and fell on them.
As if they were discerning something, these lights disappeared in a blink of an eye. They knelt down on one knee, saluted respectfully, and made a slightly metallic sound.
"Welcome back, Sister Sakura, Sister Aya."
"Open the door."
Sakura seemed to be used to this kind of scene and gave the order.
"As commanded."
They stood up, took stiff steps, and placed their metal-gauntleted palms against the door.
With the injection of magic power, a faint glint of light could be seen, and the heavy wooden door was slowly pushed open through a gap. With the dry sound of the bearing rotating, the gap became larger and larger, and finally opened completely.
Entering the interior of the church, what you see is the same simple decoration. Although it can be seen that it is indeed much more gorgeous than the outside, in the eyes of Olga Marie and others, it is nothing more than that.
The empty hall was covered with faded red carpet, and the weak sunlight shone in through the narrow windows. There was not much left, and it was unable to dispel the darkness in the hall.
The only bright light source is the candlesticks, but they are so few that they can only illuminate the surrounding area.
The most eye-catching thing in the entire hall is a white stone sculpture. It is a warrior holding a spiral sword high. His whole body is covered in armor burning in flames, as if he is a forerunner holding a torch.
In the front right of the sculpture, a woman wearing the same nun costume as Sakura and the others lowered her head and leaned on a wooden chair, seemingly taking a nap.
She must have been awakened by the sound of the door opening. She slowly opened her eyes, raised her head, and saw a group of people walking in with the light behind her.
"Good day, Sister Gullwig."
Sakura waved her hand casually, just like a casual greeting between friends. The other party didn't care about her rude behavior and was obviously used to it.
"The matter in Elus City has been resolved, the reconstruction work is in progress, and the King of Winter Wolf has also been confirmed to be defeated."
"well done."
About a few seconds passed before Sister Gullweger spoke quietly. Her voice sounded as cold as a cold spring, but mixed with a softness and an echoing texture.
In short, her voice left a deep impression on Gray and the others.
"You warriors who defeated the Winter Wolf King, please come forward."
Gray and Olga Marie walked up to Sister Gullweger cautiously. Thinking of their identity as fire bearers, they couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
If one's identity is discovered here, it will be impossible to fly. Not to mention the unknown number of church knights and the ridiculously strong knight captain, just the two knights who opened the door, judging from the perception of magic power,
Very difficult enemy.
But they were also very curious about Sister Gullweger. According to Gale, it was precisely because of the appearance of Sister Guerweger that the church had a great change in its attitude toward spreading fire.
In other words, Sister Gullweger in front of her is the culprit who has caused the world to be gradually swallowed up by wind and snow.
"Outlander, I feel the presence of the wolf soul from your body. Sure enough, the Winter Wolf King has been completely defeated."
Gullweger stood up, walked to Gray, and spoke quietly, seeming to be sighing something.
Gray subconsciously raised her head. From this distance, she could clearly see Sister Gullwig's face.
It was an extremely upright and beautiful face. The fair skin seemed to be shining with light. It looked like the best white porcelain in the East. The proportions of the facial features were also just right. The golden hair hung down on both sides, like molten gold.
Shining and shining, in short, her existence is to explain to the world what beauty is.
The only pity is that her face is covered with a silver decoration like a blindfold, and her eyes cannot be seen, but this blindfold also embellishes her face, adding a bit of mysterious beauty.
But for some reason, Gray felt that Sister Gullweger in front of her was like a specimen of gorgeous flowers, but the vitality of life had long been lost inside, leaving only a useless body.
But what she can be sure of is that Sister Gullweger is not one of those aliens who should be sleeping underground but is still wandering on the earth. The abundant vitality in her body proves that she is a living creature.
This contradictory feeling made Gray feel at a loss. She could only lower her head again, looking at the old carpet at her feet, waiting for the other party's next words.
