"Long time no see, Pikpin. You've worked hard all these years." Sibis said this and prepared to stand up to greet him, while the servants on both sides were ready to help him up.
"No, no, I don't need such hospitality from Lord Sibis."
Pikping waved his hand and stepped forward to stop Sibis's movement. Then the two of them started a polite conversation, reminiscing about their time at the Lanye Palace as if it was their most precious memory.
When talking about some touching stories in the past, their eyes were slightly red and they shed a few drops of "sincere" tears. At this time, the two of them sat together unconsciously.
Sibisi's chubby, broad hand slowly patted Pikpin's shoulder and said with emotion, "I really miss that time when we were so young and had our own dreams."
"Yeah." Pickpin also sighed and continued.
"It's a pity that more than 20 years have passed, and now my body is slowly aging. There are many things that I am willing to do but unable to do."
He paused for a moment before continuing.
"The reason I came here this time is because I feel that my time is running out, and I want to see my old friends and arrange my funeral. Come, child, let me introduce you to them." He waved and called over a young pastor who had followed him in.
"This is Lord Sibis, the current Scepter Priest of the Ten Swords Palace, a highly respected and trustworthy elder."
"Hello, Lord Sibis..." He nodded solemnly and introduced himself.
"I adopted this child there, and I have placed high hopes on him," said Pickpin.
Sibis narrowed his eyes and looked at the two of them for a while. He found that their faces were somewhat similar, so a faint smile appeared on his face.
"Good boy, good boy."
He reached out and touched the young man's head.
"Don't worry, I will remember this child. Lusha, go to my cabinet and get the pendant. Just think of it as a gift for an old friend." He raised his hand and ordered.
"Yes, Lord Sibis." The nun walked away quickly and came to Sibis's bedroom. She opened the cabinet beside the bed, revealing a mixture of golden necklaces and pendants. She picked up one of them at random, checked it briefly, found a small box to put it in, and then took it out.
After seeing the nun come back, Sibisi took the box, pressed the button on it, and a golden pendant emitting a faint glow popped out.
"This is a little gadget I made recently in my spare time. It's probably of silver quality. It's a token of my appreciation, so I'll give it to you." He handed over the pendant.
"This...this, there's no need to do this. You spent your own time making this, how can you give it away so easily?" After trying to stop him several times, Pikping finally let the young priest take the pendant and put it on his chest on the spot.
"That's good, that's good." Sibis said a few words with a smile, which moved the young pastor deeply.
"Why don't you sit down for a while? It's almost time for dinner here."
"There's no need for that. Although we are old friends, I can't keep bothering you, Lord Sibis." Pickpin stood up, said a few more polite words, and then said goodbye with the two young priests.
"That's it, if you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me, old friend." The two hugged each other again before slowly separating.
Afterwards, with Sibis's smiling eyes, the three of them slowly left the palace.
After a while, Sibisi looked at the clear water in front of him and asked, "Have they left?"
A servant walked out quickly, then came back and reported in a low voice: "My lord, they have left."
"Yeah." Sibis nodded, and his expression became slightly cold.
"Help me up so I can take a shower and clean up this place."
"Yes, sir."
After saying this, two servants slowly helped the pot-bellied Bishop of Sibis to the back of the palace.

Ever since meeting Bennett, Loran Hill has received a lot of attention these days. After all, the scene of her having dinner with the church giant that day was seen by many nuns.
Later, everyone slowly inquired and discovered that this seemingly young, silver-haired nun actually had such an extraordinary background. Not only was she a top student at Emenas, she was also the head of the academy and had led the academy to victory in the Broken Army Championship.
For a while, many people were talking about this girl.
"Has Luo Xier changed her clothes?" Two girls were waiting outside the bedroom door.
"It's almost done, wait a moment." A pleasant and light voice came from inside the house.
Loran Hill looked at the several clothes on the bed, hesitated a little, and finally chose a dress with black as the main color, but with some white pleated patterns on the hem and cuffs.
This one is a little more simple, she thought, and took off her nun's uniform and put on the black dress.
Today is the day for a class reunion. They have already taken leave and are planning to go out and visit the attractions on the holy mountain in the afternoon and evening.
It would be inappropriate to wear normal work clothes at this time, so Loran Hill changed clothes here.
The door creaked open, and Loran Hill, wearing light green sandals, a black dress, and twin ponytails, appeared in front of the two.
"Wow."
"It's really beautiful, Luo Xier."
Jelica gave a thumbs-up, and then the others left the small courtyard and headed towards the mountain path nearby.
Jelica was wearing trousers and a shirt, her golden hair tied in a ponytail, while Boli was wearing a white and pink summer dress. The three girls walked together on the path, talking as they walked.
