The next morning, Rikka planned to go for a walk with Lulu, but Boom rejected the invitation of the two girls. He had a very important thing today, which was doubts about Lulu's identity.
As the "Magical Principality", Cisse possesses an incredible collection of ancient scrolls. Although Boom does not have the authority to enter the palace and academy, he can access the Cisse Library like ordinary people. Standing in front of this huge spherical building, Boom seemed to be transformed into an ant, looking small and humble. The so-called knowledge has nothing to do with fighting spirit or magic power. It is the starting point of the origin of the world and the bones and flesh of all living things. Ten gold coins disappeared. Boom lowered his head and walked into the Cisse Library, and went straight to the top floor. This place is only open to professionals, but there are no restrictions on levels.
Maybe it was the ten gold coins, or maybe it was because there were very few professionals who liked reading. Boom looked around and saw that there were only a dozen people besides himself.
These people were sitting or standing, and all of them were scanning him with their eyes. However, after detecting the aura of a junior magician in Boom, they lowered their heads and turned a blind eye to him.
Boom walked to a certain corner with an expressionless face. Half an hour later, he sighed and landed on the ground with a book. "Spirit Body and Soul" is written by the Oracle Regeni. The words were divided into two parts. Just as Boom was reading ancient scrolls in the Xisai Library, Rikka and Lulu had already walked out of the courtyard and left the alley.
"Rikka, I think Lulu may not be human, or maybe it's just an obsession left in the human world."
"Don't go to Nightingale Grassland these days. Lulu is our partner. You should know what to do."
"By the way, this matter will be kept secret for the time being. If Lulu doesn't want to talk about it, let's not expose it."
Boom's instructions this morning kept repeating in Liuhua's mind. She looked at Lulu not far away complicatedly, with a rare trace of bitterness on her face.
This is not the sadness experienced countless times, nor the despair when being abandoned by Boom, but the feeling of powerlessness in the face of huge unknown power.
Rikka is very powerful, and can even fight against more than a dozen high-level professionals without suffering any damage. But she always seems unable to deal with these nihilistic things.
It's like if Boom didn't use magic, Rikka could stab him to death with one finger, even if he used magic, it would be of no use.
So what she can do now is leave these problems to Boom to worry about. She wants to stay with Lulu and accompany her wherever she wants to go.
"Sister Rikka, what's wrong with you? Why does Lulu think you are a little weird?" Lulu ran to Rikka and asked with a smile.
"Ah? No...it's nothing. Where does Lulu want to go today?" Rikka stopped thinking and returned to her usual smile.
"Anywhere is fine. This is Lulu's first time walking with Sister Rikka." Lulu held Rikka's arm and moved slowly among the crowd.
The market area is naturally the first choice for the two of them. With her cute appearance, Lulu keeps putting food into the bamboo basket.
Rikka, on the other hand, did not make fun of her anymore. She was not a scheming person, so naturally she could not keep her emotions in her heart.
Rikka's way of expressing herself is simple and direct. Whatever Lulu likes, she will buy it without hesitation, whether it is a copper coin or a dozen gold coins.
The two of them licked the candies and walked forward. As for the so-called monastery, the two women forgot about it in a tacit understanding.
Standing in front of the noisy door, Lulu looked inside curiously, while Rikka quietly took out a booklet from the dimensional space.
"Is this the mercenary union? Lulu has never been here before." Lulu stretched her neck and asked with shining eyes.
Immediately, after showing the certificate of "Rikka Mercenary Group", Rikka took Lulu and walked in. But everyone he saw looked very disdainful.
Of the two little girls, the one on the left should be a warrior, while the one on the right seems to be just an ordinary person. Seeing this, Rikka finally found a way to vent her anger.
A meteorite sword was slowly inserted into the wooden table. Compared with a thunderous strike, this seemingly slow action showed Rikka's strength better.
There was a brief silence in the mercenary union. Everyone put away their contempt, and even some timid people sneaked out quietly.
"I am the leader of the Rikka Mercenary Group, and I invite this girl to join today." A few gold coins collided with the table, and Lulu held her own mercenary certificate and bowed to Rikka.
"Captain, Commander, I am also a mercenary now." Lulu and Rikka walked out of the mercenary union, but the former seemed extremely excited.
The sense of belonging can, at the most extreme level, be a sense of pride in the principality to which one belongs; at the most extreme level, it can be as small as friends or acquaintances that have been maintained for many years.
Not long after, the two wandered outside the noble area. It was like another world, with countless Sisai cavalry stationed all year round.
Rikka didn't have the slightest fondness for these nobles, no matter from Boom's early experiences or the night in the prison that was etched in her memory.
But Lulu gradually slowed down, and finally stood on the opposite street with a complicated expression. She thought of many things and many unforgettable experiences.
"Lulu, as a high-ranking priest, you must have often been in and out of the aristocratic area before." Rikka stroked the other person's little head and asked softly.
"Well, there are good people among the nobles, and there are villains among the poor." Lulu tugged at the corner of Rikka's clothes and gestured for the two of them to move forward.
The afternoon sun became more and more dazzling, and Rikka and Lulu were sitting in front of a food stall, tasting pastries while looking at the palace not far away.
"It's so grand. It would be great if Lulu could stay there for one night." Lulu murmured as she looked at the huge looming garden in the palace.
"Go back, brother should be home soon." Liuhua took Lulu's little hand, got up and walked towards the alley. Liuhua had no interest in the palace, because in her eyes, apart from being bigger, it was different from her.
There is no difference in the small courtyard where we are.
Boom had already left the Cisse Library at this time, his brows gradually relaxed, and finally returned to normal with a sigh.
Pushing open the courtyard door, the familiar laughter mixed with a bit of aroma hit my face. I saw the figures of Rikka and Lulu looming in the kitchen, and the silver plate was filled with food.
"Brother Boom!" Lulu smiled and rushed towards Boom. Rikka blinked, but in the end she still chose to stop where she was. Because what she was most concerned about now was Lulu's situation.
Boom hugged Lulu into his arms, but he gently shook his head at Rikka. Under the influence of soul fusion, Rikka almost cried.
Boom's meaning was obvious, Lulu was indeed not human, and would soon perish. The three of them were sitting in the room, and although they were still talking and laughing, they all noticed something strange about each other.
But the smile on Lulu's face never changed. She gently touched the petal hairpin on her head and tried her best to tell what she saw and heard during the day.
Rikka lowered her head and walked out of the room. She didn't like this atmosphere, and she didn't like seeing Boom's helpless eyes. The dishes were washed over and over again, and finally Rikka hid directly in the toilet and refused to come out for a long time.
