"You are back~~~ Oh? You brought friends with you? Well, they should be friends, right? Welcome to Arkham Orphanage, I am the director here~"
Let me go, the name here is really Arkham! It turns out that I am not a big brain! Isn’t this a coincidence?
"We are friends, Dean~ and we are friends like family~"
Patch turned around and looked at the blond sister in nun uniform walking out of the door with a smile. It seemed that this was the dean they were talking about.
This sister looks gentle and elegant, and she looks like she is less than thirty years old. Although she is wearing a nun's uniform, she does not wear a matching headscarf, but has her middle hair tied up in a handful on her chest in a dangerous hairstyle.
.Although the big round eyes are red, there is nothing evil about them, but they give people a very warm feeling. The altitude is comparable to that of Sister Clara, which makes her clothes look very tight, and for some reason they are very short.
Under the hem of the skirt, two long legs wrapped in white lace garter stockings immediately attracted my attention. What's a bit sad is that she was wearing a pair of white stiletto boots instead of the long legs that I like.
boots.
"Pfft~ How old do you think our dean is?" Hermione touched my shoulder.
"Uh... I can't guess that~ You all said that adventurers never age in appearance~"
"Oh, let's take a guess~"
"Then let me guess... fifty years old?"
"Fifty years old... is too young!"
"Holy shit...then...sixty years old?"
"Still little!"
"No way! Seventy years old, no more!"
"Eighty-eight years old!"
"Are you Kaidin!"
"No, I am Hillis."
"So old...how is that possible~"
I stared at the dean's ageless face for a long time, and I couldn't believe her age.
"But she's so old! Otherwise she wouldn't be able to fight anymore!" Hermione said with some pride.
"Ah la ah la~ Who does this kid say is old? I haven't even finished a third of my life~"
The Dean rushed to Hermione's side with a dark face, grabbed her face with his slender hands wearing white gauze gloves and pulled her face hard to both sides.
Hermione struggled and begged vaguely for mercy, but her struggling movements were obviously just for show.
"Hey~! The dean is angry!"
"Even the eldest sister is no match for her!"
"The dean is indeed the strongest!"
The children watching all around let out bursts of exclamations, and even a few upright guys cheered with schadenfreude, saying stupid things like the eldest sister was being punished. I don’t know if Hermione will hold a grudge, but she never
She stopped moving her eyes and saw that she had memorized these silly children.
"Oh~ I am still getting old~ I feel so tired even if I move casually..." The dean let go of his hand and rubbed his shoulders with a tired look on his face.
"Dean~ let me introduce to you, this super beautiful girl who looks cold but is actually very soft is Amy, and the super beautiful girl next to her is her sister Ellie. They are all friends we met this time~"
Pachi hugged my waist and introduced us to the dean with a smile. Although I don’t understand why she added such an obvious prefix as super pretty girl, I personally feel quite happy.
"Ah la ah la~ The girl who can be friends with you must not be a normal person, right?" The dean looked at us with a smile.
Hey...sister...grandma, how do you speak? Have you ever treated a guest you met for the first time like this?
"Of course it's not normal~ She is a holy mother~"
"Huh? Holy Mother? You don't look like you are dressed up~ Are you really that powerful?" The dean looked at the ordinary clergy suit I was wearing and narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Sister, please perform that one quickly! It's the one that captured my heart right away!" Ellie happily pulled on my clothes.
"Ah? Which one? Oh, oh, that's the one~ Do you want to perform now?"
"Yes, hurry up~"
"Why do I think this scene is so familiar?"
"Oh, don't worry about this, hurry up!"
"Okay... that... what's going on... Oh, I remember... Starlight Breaks!"
I searched for my sacred magic skills in my mind, then raised my hand and instantly created a huge ball of holy light above my head.
"...!"
The dean immediately distanced herself from me as soon as I released the skill. Her agility was at the level of a young adventurer. She assumed a vigilant posture, the smile on her face disappeared, and her hands were even more...
Raising it slightly on both sides of the body seems to be some kind of magical preparation.
Is this dean really too old to be beaten?
"Uh... I'm sorry, did I scare you?" I immediately dispersed the holy light ball.
The dean put down her hands and her body returned to a relaxed state. After the smile reappeared on her face, she walked over, squinted her eyes and tilted her head at me.
"Well~ it's me who should apologize~ Because of my past professional habits, I often have convulsions reflexively, please don't worry about it hehehe~~~"
Well, the dean's way of talking is similar to that of Pachi. I'm afraid she learned it from the dean, right?
"It's okay, it's okay, I can understand. You are a veteran, who doesn't have PTSD or something~" I waved my hand carelessly.
"What... thing?" The dean tilted his head to the other side.
"It's nothing, I invented the vocabulary myself hahaha~"
Pachi and the others didn't tell the truth about my background, they must be worried, so it's better for me to keep it a secret together.
"Hehehe~ He is indeed a strange child~ No wonder he can become friends with Pachi and the others~"
The dean stretched out her hand and gently touched my head. Her touch was very gentle, and it felt different from everyone else who had touched my head. For some reason, I actually had the feeling that this grandma was my mother.
.Perhaps this is the maternal aura you get from raising many children?
"By the way, Dean, Ellie is more powerful than Amy, she is the Valkyrie~" Pachi added on the side.
"..."
The dean's expression became solemn again. She looked at Ellie, then at me, and finally turned her eyes to Patsy.
"Patch~What kind of mission did you take on this time?"
"It's a mission to explore the ruins~ We went to the City of One Man. There is a large ruins there, which is the resting place of the first generation Valkyrie!" Hermione replied from the side.
"The first generation Valkyrie? Is she the one in myths and legends?" The dean looked at Hermione, and then at the well-behaved Ellie again.
"Dean, that is not a myth or legend~ The blond twintails in front of you are the inheritors of the first generation Valkyrie~" Pachi was still smiling.
"Heir...child, can you also destroy a city with one blow?" The smile on the dean's face completely disappeared.
"Okay~ Do you want me to perform? Uh... there doesn't seem to be a city nearby that can be destroyed casually, right?" Ellie answered innocently.
The dean's eyebrows twitched: "...Children, it seems you have to tell me carefully what you have done this time~"
