Chapter 181 I don’t need a vacation!
Hera stood in front of the huge cedar tree. The cedar tree was carved with some magical patterns that Adele could not understand.
Then Hera said something in a language that the former priest could not understand, and saw a lizard man walking out of the crowd happily, came to her, and knelt down on one knee.
Hera put a hand on his shoulder. In the next moment, it was clear that no one was playing music, but an indescribable and magnificent music sounded in the forest.
It's melodious and magnificent!
It was even more shocking to the ears of a person who knew music like Adele, so much so that she could not come back to her senses until the end of the song. It was not until Hera coughed that the former priest woke up from a dream.
He quickly opened the morning light notebook in his hand, read out a name on it, and then lightly crossed out the name as Hera asked.
Then Hera opened the bag on the side, took out a cyan ring from it, put it on the lizard man's hand, and said two more words to him.
The lizard man stood up from the ground with excitement, raised the hand with the ring, and said a few words with a solemn expression.
Then he gave way to the next lizard man, and the same process was repeated... hundreds of times.
Until the last lizard man also got the bracelet and name, and left happily.
Adele's body suddenly softened and she collapsed on the ground.
Hera thought Adele had stood for too long and her legs were numb, so she went to check but saw a look of panic on the former priest's face.
"You, what ceremony were you just holding?!"
Adele had stayed in the Silver Moon Church for a long time and was very familiar with this kind of thing, but by the time she realized something was wrong, it was already too late.
The former priest was still thinking about the agreement between himself, the maid and Hera, and helped the latter complete all the rituals, but when the ceremony was over, she collapsed.
When she thought that as a follower of Pisiya, she not only came to the territory of the pagans, but also participated in their rituals in a daze, Adele felt a sore nose and couldn't help but want to cry again.
"It's the initiation ceremony of Shuangxiu Cult." Hera breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the former priest's body was fine.
Although she had guessed the result, when the answer was revealed, Adele still suffered another heavy blow and felt completely hopeless.
Because Li Yu felt that the initiation ceremony was too time-consuming, especially as there were more and more believers in the future, he could not do each one personally, so he first trained Hera to take over his class.
Moreover, the initiation ceremony was further improved, and an oath-taking process was imitated by the Young Pioneers. It was difficult to say to the nobles, but ordinary civilians on the continent of Bratis still took the oaths made to the gods very seriously.
Therefore, these oaths can also have a certain degree of binding force on them, making them abide by the various precepts of Shuangxiu Cult.
The reason why Li Yu helped the lizard people complete the initiation ceremony at this time was because this matter had been delayed for a long time. Secondly, as the war with the giant dragon was about to begin, Li Yu also hoped to use it. The move boosted some morale.
However, he did not expect that the little maid would succeed in fishing again and leave the part of the work that should belong to her to Adele, causing the latter to inexplicably participate in and assist Hera in completing hundreds of rituals.
After that, the former priest only felt that he was dirty, betrayed the goddess from body to soul, and even had the idea of committing suicide.
Because she really couldn't think of any other way to cleanse herself of the sins she was currently carrying.
This is different from the previous time when she was regarded as a liar and expelled from the church, because even though she suffered a heavy setback at that time and had no hope in life, at least Adele knew that she was innocent. But this time, she actually committed the crime. Something happened that the goddess did not allow.
So when Li Yu saw the former priest again, she looked like a zombie.
Not even Li Yu's arrival could make her stand up from her chair.
Li Yu put down the bag of things in his hand and stopped the maid who was about to run away. After asking, he found out what happened. He remembered that just a few hours ago, when setting off from Teacup Castle, Ilea had solemnly Please ask him to help take care of Adele.
As a result, as soon as Li Yu rushed back, he found that he had been spoiled by Clara.
The little maid defended, "You can't blame me. She clamored for me to find a job for her as soon as she arrived, but her small body doesn't look very strong at first glance, so she probably can't do any physical work.
"She said she knows how to see a doctor, but her medical skills are not as good as yours. Now the patients on the territory of the Order have been treated almost completely. If you can't cure her, there will be no chance for her. After thinking about it, I can only think of this. She could still do the job, but she ended up doing it like this.”
Clara spread her hands.
Li Yu looked at Adele, whose eyes were dull and listless, and turned to the little maid and said, "Send her back."
"Eh? But she said she came here specially to help."
"She can't be of any help in her current state, and she may be in danger if she stays. We don't have the extra manpower to take care of her."
"But...she has been expelled from the church, and I heard that her family will no longer accept her. Even if she is sent back, she will have nowhere to go." Clara still sympathized with the former priest's experience.
However, Li Yu said, "That is her own business and has nothing to do with us."
"Ah, Merlin, why are you so cold suddenly!"
"Those who can't bear this setback will definitely be knocked down by more setbacks in the future, and they are destined to achieve nothing in the future, so let her rot like this." Li Yu said lightly.
"That's too much to say." The little maid protested.
"Do you know what kind of person I hate most at work? It's not the idiot who doesn't understand anything, nor the scheming bad guy, but the kind of rotten good person who doesn't distinguish right from wrong. Such people think they are very powerful. Principles, but in the end nothing gets done.”
"No, that's not the case." Adele, who had not spoken for a long time on the massage chair, suddenly said.
She bit her lips tightly, as if she had used up all her strength to spit out these words, "Please, please let me stay and give me another chance. I will prove my worth to you."
"Okay, anyway, it won't be long before you collapse again. It will be the same if I send you away then." Li Yu said nonchalantly.
The former priest quietly clenched his fists, but he just endured someone's cynicism silently without saying a word to defend himself.
He just stood up from the chair, bowed his head to Li Yu and said, "Please, please assign me a job, no matter what job, I will not refuse."
"You said it yourself. The territory happens to be short of a doctor who can complete daily diagnosis and treatment, especially when I am away. From now on, you will be responsible for this part of the work.
"In addition, you will screen the films of Kingdom of God in the future, and you will continue to be Hera's helper during the initiation ceremony... How about it? Are there any questions?"
"No, no."
"Very good. But don't worry, since you are on a land with double holidays, you still have holidays on Saturdays and Sundays."
"I, I don't need a vacation!"
"Sorry, this is a commandment. Everyone living in this land, including me, must abide by it. Of course you are no exception. Clara, find an empty room to accommodate her."
After the maid took him away, Li Yu remembered what Ilea said to him before setting off.
"I know Adele best. She is the type who is soft on the outside but strong on the inside. Most of the time she looks soft and weak, and she is not very able to withstand pressure. The more you comfort her, she may The more you doubt yourself.
"But when the pressure exceeds a certain limit, it will inspire her spirit of resistance and make her brave. Maybe she doesn't even realize that she is actually a very contradictory person. How about this news? Is it useful? ”
"Thank you." Li Yu said, "I already know how to treat her." (End of Chapter)
