Chapter 628 Lanqi doesn't believe that it will explode one day
The clock hand on the clock tower on the side of the Temple Square showed just after three o'clock.
The slightly hot midday sun of Ikerite in summer made the ancient gray stone slabs glow. Under the protection of the statue, several huge oak trees grew around the square. Their lush branches and leaves provided a cool and comfortable place for the side edge of the square.
The door of the temple is half open, and the carved doorposts are covered with creeping green vines, like witnesses of history quietly guarding this holy place.
The two people under the big tree did not need too many words, a hug was enough to express their years of longing for each other and the joy of reunion.
But once he started talking, he couldn't seem to stop.
From past anecdotes to current situations, accompanied by Loren's narration and Florence's laughter.
In the blink of an eye, it seems like this moment is forever.
【Pay attention to the time.】
Came the love instructor's voice.
“…”
When Loren heard this, he suddenly realized something as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"Florence, I have to go back to the temple. Artemis has called me several times!"
Loren said with a hint of apology.
Although he wanted to continue chatting with his best friend, he no longer had the time.
"Oh, go ahead."
Florence smiled understandingly and shook her hand.
She knew that Loren had been very busy lately.
And when he saw that Loren was in good condition, he felt relieved.
"Be careful not to overwork yourself, and if you ever feel like talking to someone, you can always contact me. No matter how you feel, I'm your partner."
Florence added kindly.
"Florence..."
Loren looked at Florence with a moving look in his eyes. "If possible, I wish I could be with you every day. You are really my soul mate."
He shook his head reluctantly, feeling sorry that he could only spend such a short time with his best friend.
“Is that so…”
Florence lowered her brows and looked away.
Her reaction stunned Loren, who looked at her in confusion.
As if sensing Loren's gaze, Florence raised her head again, grinned, and patted Loren's shoulder, as if to urge him to leave.
"Get busy, come on!"
Florence said.
"Um."
Loren nodded, said goodbye to Florence, and headed towards the temple of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny located beside the moat.
In less than a moment, with his figure flashing several times, this ethereal palace, forged by thousands of years of faith, appeared before his eyes.
In the heart of the northern region of Ikerit, beside a clear river surrounded by trees, stands a magnificent temple, which is also the church base that Loren often visits besides the Ikerit College.
Just follow the instructor's instructions and speak the truth to Florence and Artemis.
I said goodbye to Florence and went to work. I said goodbye to Artemis and went to rest. There was no lie at all.
His steps passed through the temple gate.
When the hot natural light shone through the window lattices onto the white reliefs, the portraits of gods in various shapes seemed to flicker, giving him the illusion that they were performing ancient legends.
"Instructor, is there enough time?"
Loren felt that the light was a bit dazzling. Perhaps he felt a little guilty. He concentrated his mind again, walked towards the inside of the temple, and asked.
【The time is no problem.】
"What's the problem then?"
Loren asked nervously.
Judging from what the instructor said, maybe there is a second half to the sentence that he hasn't said yet.
[Do you still remember that you promised Florence, "When you are not busy next time, we will get together again"? ]
"Um."
[Do you think this is a date? ]
"Don't count it. It's normal to hang out with good brothers."
[It's okay, try harder next time. ]
The love instructor's mumbling to himself seemed to have a sense of mission, but it also seemed like he had something to say but couldn't.
"What's the meaning?"
Although Loren trusted his love instructor, he couldn't help but feel nervous.
Is there something I am missing that I am not aware of? It is just like learning. If you make a mistake but don’t know where you made a mistake, it will be difficult to improve and progress.
[Nothing, you are very talented, even more than I thought. The seemingly plain and simple normal attacks actually all have armor penetration and critical hits. Just do it according to your own feelings. If you follow me to learn everything, it may delay your own talents.]
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
[I will help you settle everything, so you can go on the date without worry. Unless something happens to me one day, I promise that nothing will happen to you.]
The love instructor was full of firm assurances.
"Instructor..."
Loren said to the other end of the communication with emotion.
He passed through the solemn and quiet space deep in the temple. The pure white stone pillars stood majestically in the hall. The further he went in, the clearer his footsteps became.
When Loren arrived at the huge door of the temple's confidential room, he felt as if he was standing on the threshold of another world.
He knocked lightly on the door made of pure white jade and deep gray stone.
"please."
A soft voice like the first frost of winter came from inside the door.
Loren pushed open the heavy stone door, and before him was an office with a high ceiling like a cathedral. The white brick grooves on the surrounding walls were filled with scriptures of the Church of the Goddess of Destiny.
In the meeting area at the center of the temple, a woman with silver hair and silver eyes sat quietly on the sofa. Even at noon, her figure was as pure and flawless as an elf in the moonlight.
If she wasn't still breathing, it would be difficult to prove whether she was a living being or a work of art.
"Sorry, I took a break this morning. I'm really sorry for not getting back to you."
Loren bowed to the Ice Witch and apologized.
Artemis, the chosen saint of God, is half-demon and does not have devilish horns. Her only demonic feature is her slightly pointed ears.
She is more like a pure and flawless snow elf rather than the devil as people say.
Although there was only inviolable arrogance and indifference in her eyes, almost isolating all living beings from afar, there was also a hint of kindness hidden beneath that appearance.
Loren saw that the Ice Witch was not busy working at the moment and there was a cup of steaming tea on the table. He felt a little relieved. At least the Ice Witch was not looking for him for an urgent work matter today.
"How does it feel to hold Florence?"
The ice witch's cold voice sounded in front of Loren.
He raised his head and found that the Ice Witch had stood up from the sofa. When he met the Ice Witch's gaze, he felt a disgust that was difficult to conceal.
Loren instantly felt a chill down his spine.
wrong.
What was wrong with him holding Florence.
Does this kind of behavior of boys seem strange to the Ice Witch?
“It feels good.”
Loren replied confidently.
“…”
The Ice Witch's expression suddenly became more complicated.
Is her understanding of humans wrong, or does Loren really think that women can be hugged casually? (End of this chapter)
