Chapter 301 Contact
In the northern suburbs of Tivian, in front of the east gate of Royal Holy Crown University, in Green Shade Town.
In the afternoon, the rare autumn sunshine sprinkled on the streets of Greenshade Town. On the small balcony of No. 17, Dorothy, wearing a loose white home dress and with her hair loose, sat on a chair. After several days of gloomy weather, she came out to bask in the sun today. Otherwise, she felt that her body would soon become moldy.
At this time, in front of Dorothy, there was a thick book, next to the book was a cup of steaming coffee and a small cake. What was written in this book were the words between Dorothy and others, which was the "Wenhai Navigation Chronicle".
Dorothy put a big spoon of sugar in the coffee on the table and slowly stirred the liquid in the cup with a spoon. When it was almost done, she put the spoon next to the plate with the small cake, then picked up the coffee cup and put it to her mouth to slowly taste it.
Bathed in the warm sunshine, Dorothy felt the tranquility around her while looking at the new words appearing on the sailing diary. After a careful examination, she put down the coffee cup, picked up the pen beside her and began to write a reply on the sailing diary.
"So that means you're starting work at the hospital now?" The words were written on Vanya's communication page. Dorothy quietly watched the words sink into the book. After waiting for a while, the reply sentence in Vanya's handwriting emerged.
"Yes, Miss Dorothea. Since most of our people in the History Department have been sent to cure the poison, they are not allowed to return to their posts before they are 100% recovered. Therefore, the entire church's History Department is paralyzed. I have just been promoted to the black rank and I don't have a job for a while, so I was assigned to the Afulemun Hospital. Here, my ability as a healing priest can play a role."
In the "Wenhai Navigation", Vanya explained her current situation to Dorothy. After she was promoted, she seemed to be transferred to the church hospital due to the lack of jobs.
"So, your place of work will be changed there, as a medical nun, instead of working in the church district?" Dorothy continued to write a response on the "Wenhai Voyage". As the handwriting sank, after waiting patiently, Vanya's notes reappeared.
"No, I'm just going there to help temporarily. There are professional medical nuns there. Although I can help a little with my abilities, I'm just an intern here to help for a while. If there is a suitable position in the future or if the History and Economics Department returns to normal, I may be transferred again. I still live in the church area now, and this position in the hospital is just a temporary one."
Vanya responded like this. Looking at her response, Dorothy nodded slightly and roughly understood what was going on.
'Vanya was temporarily promoted because of her merits. There is no suitable position for her for the time being, so she was transferred to the hospital for internship because of her ability... But this is only temporary. According to her, she should be transferred back to a more suitable position in the future. I hope it will be the History and Classics Department, where she can get in touch with the traditions of the church.
'And when the History and Classics Department is restored, Vanya will be transferred back as a middle-level black-rank deacon, which means she will most likely take over Cork's position as the head of the History and Classics Department. If Vanya becomes the head of the History and Classics Department, it will be easier for me to handle the church's legend!'
Dorothy thought so in her heart, and then she wrote her idea to Vanya, asking if it was possible to realize it. Vanya paused for a moment and then responded.
"That's true. Deacon Cork is a middle-level black-rank deacon. If I return to the History and Classics Department, I will most likely take over his place. But in this case... for the church, the position of Director of the History and Classics Department has had two problematic people in a row. Cork and I both have secrets that the church does not allow. Miss Dorothea, to be honest, this makes me feel a little weird..."
Vanya responded to Dorothy like this. Dorothy could sense the uneasiness in Vanya's heart just by looking at her words. She compared herself with the traitor Kirk and found out that both she and he had concealed a big secret from the church, which made Vanya feel a little guilty.
Seeing Vanya's reply, Dorothy was slightly startled, and then decided to help Vanya a little, so she picked up her pen and wrote in the "Wenhai Hangzhi".
"No, that shouldn't be said. Vanya, although you have concealed a little bit more from the higher-ups, she has never done anything that is harmful to the interests of the church. She has even helped the church fight against heresy and cleared threats for the church. How can this be the same as Cork, who attempted to use poison to murder his subordinates and had ulterior motives?
"Vanya, you don't need to worry about this. Think about it. If you didn't have the secret from Aka that day, you wouldn't have discovered Cork's problem. The church might have suffered immeasurable losses. You didn't betray the church. You just secretly protected the church in your own way.
"This way of guarding is destined not to be understood by some people. Although there are risks, someone must do it, otherwise the conspiracy of Cork will succeed. Didn't the Son of God teach that in order to protect the church and the faith, every believer needs to have the spirit and courage to sacrifice, and to secretly guard the church in a special way that is not understood, taking risks. Isn't this also a manifestation of self-sacrifice? So Vanya, you don't need to be confused in your heart, just continue to do your job well."
Dorothy wrote some words of guidance to Vanya on her logbook. When Sister Vanya, who was taking a nap in the lounge, saw her words, she was stunned and then murmured.
"In my own way... to protect the church in secret?"
Seeing what Dorothy wrote to her, Vanya was shocked. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. Come to think of it, everything she did under Aka's will was almost all an act of salvation. Although her actions did not violate the regulations, they truly eliminated the threat to the church and reduced the losses.
"Yes... Just as Miss Dorothea said, the Son of God taught us to have the spirit of sacrifice for the protection of the church. I secretly protect the church, so isn't that also a kind of sacrifice..."
Thinking of this, Vanya suddenly felt that she had become much nobler. The setting of "guarding the church alone in her own way" made her feel somewhat excited. The uneasiness in her heart was not only reduced a lot, but also boosted her motivation. She breathed a sigh of relief after receiving the psychological comfort, and then picked up the pen and wrote back to Dorothy.
"Thank you Miss Dorothea for your guidance. I am ashamed that as a nun, I actually still need you to enlighten me with the contents of the scriptures. Your words have made me understand a lot, and I feel much clearer in my heart now.
"Miss Dorothea, your wisdom is admirable. I will follow your instructions and concentrate on doing my current work. If there is anything else you need, please let me know."
