Working Prophet

The priestess obviously came to see Li Yu, but somehow she became the common language teacher of the girl in front of her, tutoring the latter in common language spelling for a whole afternoon.

However, the other party's learning progress really surprised her.

I actually learned more than 300 vocabulary words in one afternoon. What's more important is that after learning, Adele asked the girl to spell a word, and the latter's accuracy rate was over 90%.

Even if you add the words you learned before, it can still exceed 70%.

And according to the girl in the room, she still plays cards most of the time these days, but Li Yu has set a study plan for her. She will sprint for each stage when it is about to expire, and then continue playing.

Adele was good at studying herself, but she was still surprised by the girl's talent in learning.

She couldn't help but blurt out, "Come and join the Silver Moon Church. With your qualifications, the church will definitely focus on training you. Although you are not a noble, you should be able to become a priest like me in a few years. Stay here." It’s such a waste to plant in a small area.”

As a result, the little maid shook her head like a rattle, "No, no, no, I am a believer in the Shuangshou religion, and no one can separate me from my Lord on Saturdays!"

"Are you saying this because Merlin doesn't allow you to convert to the Silver Moon Goddess? Well... you don't have to worry too much. Ilea, the lord of the green field, is my good friend. As long as you want to come with me, I will There is a way to take you away." The priestess said gently.

However, after she finished speaking, she found that Clara’s eyes became strange when she looked at her.

"It doesn't matter, you can think about it more, I will stay in Green Field for a while..."

"There is nothing to think about whether I will stay or go. I have made it very clear. It doesn't matter if I don't meet my lord on Saturday. Since I have joined the double holiday program, I won't leave even if Merlin kicks me out!" The maid said decisively.

The priestess frowned, obviously not expecting Clara to refuse so simply.

From commoners to priests is a leap that most people cannot make in a lifetime. Although priests are not nobles, with the influence of the Silver Moon Church in the Western Region, the status of priests is higher than that of some minor nobles.

Also, unlike nobles, priests were respected wherever they went.

Therefore, even children from noble families dream of becoming priests.

So Adele didn't understand why the little maid didn't even want to consider her proposal.

What on earth did she get into that Saturday that made her so loyal?

But before the priestess could ask any more questions, Clara had already issued an eviction order, "Go back, Merlin is not here."

Adele was startled when she heard this, "But I heard that he appears every two days. Counting the time, he should be here today."

"Humph, stupid pagan. As the spokesperson of Saturday in the world, the Prophet naturally has to set an example. He is on vacation now, and the time in the Kingdom of God is different from ours. The Prophet will be six days away this time. to come back."

"Six days, is it so long?" The priestess was surprised.

"That's right, so you can come back in six days." The little maid waved.

However, Adele blinked when she heard this, "Then can I wait for him here?"

"You want to spy on intelligence?" Clara was very alert.

"Prophet Merlin once said before that everyone is welcome to visit the territory of Shuangxiu Sect. I wonder if this sentence still counts?"

"Merlin also said this? Uh... But he really doesn't seem to care about people coming in from outside. Just a month ago, the lizard people caught the spy sent by your Silver Moon Church to find out the news. In the end, Merlin also asked the lizard people to Let that person go, forget it, you can keep him if you want."

"Thank you. I can continue to teach you spelling these days." The priestess returned the favor.

However, the little maid shook her head again, "No, no, no, no, I will study for half a day at most tomorrow, and there will be activities during the double break in the afternoon. However, I will also have a rest the day after tomorrow. I will rest for two days in a row. This is the most important commandment of the double break. Everyone must comply.

"Rest?" Adele was puzzled, "Is rest considered a commandment?"

"Of course, Merlin said that hard work is for a better rest and life. As long as you are a believer in the Shuangxiu religion, you should not forget this no matter in any era or anywhere."

"Working hard is for a better rest and life." Adele chewed on these words and seemed to be touched, but soon sighed again.

The Imlay family she came from was only a small noble in the Western Region, so Adele was not as ignorant of the world as other noble ladies.

In particular, she also knew something about the life of the farm laborers and serfs in her own manor.

Those poor people worked hard day and night, but most of the food they grew had to be handed over to the lord. At the end of the year, they could barely make ends meet. It had to be a good year. If there were any natural or man-made disasters, Many people have no choice but to lose their families. How can they have any time to rest and live?

In the final analysis, this is just a good wish, unless there are no heavy taxes and corvee, but without the protection of the nobles, it will not be long before those villages are targeted by nearby bandits and eventually become ruins, losing both people and wealth. null.

Adele felt that those civilians were pitiful since she was a child. She also thought of many ways to change the fate of those people, but in the end they all failed without exception. She had to accept the fact that she was unable to change the status quo.

You can only become a priest when you grow up, and help as many people as possible.

Adele didn't know why Li Yu dared to take this path, but this sentence did make Li Yu's image in her heart become more positive.

This foreigner at least had a glimmer of goodwill toward the poor at the bottom.

It's a pity that the relationship between the two parties is destined to be that of rivals, not friends.

The priestess spent her first night in the territory of Shuangxiu Church with complicated emotions.

Early the next morning, she continued to teach the little maid how to spell, but by the afternoon Clara had disappeared, saying she was going to attend church activities.

When Adele walked out of the house, she found that all the lizard people in the village were also very excited. They all ran as fast as they could and rushed to the center of the village.

Adele was very curious and followed after hesitating.

Finally, she came to the outside of a stone house. It seemed that it should have been a noble residence before, but now it was converted into a temporary place for weekend activities.

There were two lizards guarding the door, but they saw that the priestess did not stop her. Instead, she gestured to her, seeming to indicate that she should hurry in.

Adele wasn't that thick-skinned. She originally just wanted to take a look around, and didn't want to pry into the activities of Shuangxiujiao at close range. However, she couldn't resist the lizard people's enthusiasm, and her curiosity was completely aroused. In the end, she still Went in.
