Chapter 175: It’s So Good to Be Young
Wayne turned to look at Philomena. Seeing that her expression didn’t look like she was joking, he couldn’t figure out what this woman was thinking for a while.
Thinking of the information I got from Chris, I had some guesses in my mind.
The bridesmaids are not good people, they have come to Windsor to cause trouble!
Wayne stood up, kept a safe distance from Philomena, shook his head and said: "When we met, the deputy minister introduced to you that I am not only a member of the Ministry of Magic, but also a member of the Tulip family, and a member of the royal family by birth. Ah Piao, who is from the royal family, cannot betray the Ministry of Magic and join the Moonlight Church.”
As he spoke, he held his head high and said very proudly: "I have practiced magic for so many years, and I have understood two things. One is the queen printed on the constitution, and the other is the queen wearing the crown."
"You mean, we need to pay more?"
"It's not a matter of adding more money."
Wayne complained: "Metaphor, metaphor, you know, what I mean is that I am very loyal and only loyal to the queen."
"Well, so loyal!"
Philomena chuckled lightly. The free wizards in the Windsor Ministry of Magic were very pure, and most of the magicians who came from the Tulip family had no faith at all. Their faith had been reduced to business, and loyalty was naturally up for grabs.
"As long as you understand."
"So, how much money will it cost to make you take the queen wearing the crown in your eyes and the queen who is printed on the constitution in your heart?" Philomena said cheerfully.
She sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, and her long legs were folded together. The hem of her silk bathrobe slipped down, revealing her long white legs.
Nice legs, paired with garter stockings, they are a killer!
Auntie, I will take you to a stockings shop tomorrow.
Wayne glanced at it and shook his head: "Thank you for your generosity, but I am very sorry that you are too old. I am still young and deserve a younger girl. I suggest you try another one."
The Chrissy I saw at the airport today is pretty good!
“……”
Philomena's smile was stiff. She had no intention of seduction. After all, she was the high priest of the district. Even if she used a beauty trick, she would not implement it herself.
The bathrobe slipped off on its own.
But what Wayne said really made Philomena very angry. She was not old, and her charm towards him...
After all, she was an aunt who had seen the world. She calmed down quickly and put the bathrobe back in place slowly: "Wayne, you were blamed by the Ministry of Magic for saving people. You are very dissatisfied with their ruthless arrangements. It shows that you have no regard for this organization." Loyalty can be said, but our Moonlight Church is different, encouraging and praising kindness.”
It's hard to say, except for the beauty, the bumpy white moonlight is not beautiful.
Wayne said: "I said, regardless of my status as the Ministry of Magic, I am still a member of the Tulip family and will only be loyal to the Queen. Even if I agree and swear to serve the Moonlight Church, you will not trust me. Forget about changing jobs. Good for everyone.”
It is impossible to poach someone from someone's fault. In Wayne's opinion, Philomena just wants to get information from the Ministry of Magic from him. The more courageous he is, the aunt will think that she is so charming that she can turn him into a licking dog and endanger the Ministry of Magic in order to achieve the purpose of revenge.
What a hassle!
Wayne advised Philomena to try someone else. He just wanted to hold the goddess's lap and study hard and make progress every day, and did not want to participate in these grudges.
Philomena frowned, she was serious, not joking, she really wanted to poach the Ministry of Magic.
She knew firsthand how terrible the pollution from the starry sky beast was, and how precious Wayne's value was. She wanted Wayne both in public and in private.
Based on Wayne's complaints to the Ministry of Magic, she believed that she could poach a corner, but if she didn't succeed, it was just that she was underpaid.
So, you should give me a price!
The atmosphere was somewhat silent. Both parties were waiting for the other party's quotation, and there were some awkward conversations during the period.
Half an hour later, Philomena glanced at the clock: "That's it for today. We had a great time chatting. We'll continue tomorrow."
It’s only half an hour, who are you looking down on!
Wayne knew what Philomena meant. She was just trying to sow discord. Children only used this trick, and she didn't take it seriously. If he had used it, he would definitely have lip marks all over the other person's face.
At the very least, there should be a stamp on the collar!
Just when Wayne was leaving, Philomena smiled sweetly, counted on her fingers and said: "I will be invited to afternoon tea tomorrow, and then you will take me to visit the famous attractions in London. I will also listen to a musical in the evening, so you are not allowed to be late. "
So many demands!
Wayne curled his lips and replied: "I promise to complete the task. Please be quiet during this period and cooperate with me to complete the task."
"Then it depends on your performance."
Philomena raised her hand and looked at her nails, and said with tea, "If you don't make me happy, it's hard for me to guarantee that I won't complain to the Ministry of Magic."
"Is this how you treat your savior?"
"..."
Philomena was silent for a moment, and then said: "On behalf of the church, it is impossible for me to say nothing."
"Then I'm fine."
The double barrier dispersed and Wayne left the manor. Philomena called two followers: "Arrange it for Doreen to find out who he is and which Tulip family he comes from."
Then, he added: "Tell Doreen that this is the first task I gave her, and don't let me down."
…
Early the next morning, Philomena arrived at the Moonlight Church stronghold.
Priest Doreen led a team to greet her, followed by her boys and girls, no, her adopted sons and daughters. There were more than twenty people present alone.
Due to restrictions from the royal family, the Moonlight Church only has one golden mage, Doreen, to serve as its front door in Windsor. Even if the royal family relaxes the restrictions, the top leader of the Moonlight Church in Windsor can only have the cultivation of a golden mage. This is seriously incompatible with the size of the Moonlight Church. Doesn’t match.
The Moonlight Church headquarters saw this as an opportunity to seize the Ministry of Magic's stain and make a fuss about it, forcing the royal family to back down and install a legendary mage in the Windsor Division.
This was a task given to Philomena by the headquarters. She didn't think much about it. Her primary purpose was to avenge her dead companions.
Philomena summoned Doreen alone in the office, who handed over the collected intelligence and told the story of the Moonlight Church's struggles in recent years.
A eloquent paragraph, generally speaking, the royal family is not a good person and bullies honest people in various ways. Now that the high priest is here, the Windsor subdivision will be saved.
A very ordinary flattery, which can be regarded as Doreen's statement. She has no extra thoughts and just wants to assist the high priest. She works hard and has no complaints.
Philomena heard it, put down the information in her hand, and wondered: "Is this information true?"
According to the information, Wayne is the heir to the Landau family and the illegitimate son of Alston. He is also the high priest of the Natural Church and a student of Alston's wife Heaphy, and serves as the pastor of the Natural Church.
The most outrageous thing is that the information clearly states that Wayne is very young, not even twenty-five this year.
Philomena always thought that Wayne was at least thirty-five or forty, about the same age as her, but it turned out...
Is the Wayne in the investigation report the same person as the Wayne in her impression?
Is there something wrong? How could the Golden Mage be so young? He is still a child!
He is still a child!
Philomena's mouth twitched. No wonder she thought she was old. After such a comparison, she was indeed not young anymore.
Doreen nodded. The information was accurate. If there were any omissions, it could only be said that the Moonlight Church had limited power in Windsor and could not find out more.
"He also funded the Moonlight Church to build a stronghold..."
Philomena squinted her eyes and smiled playfully. She knew that people in the Ministry of Magic had no faith at all.
"Mr. Wayne did invest in Moonlight Church, but that was to build a library. He himself probably didn't know about the agreement signed between the church and the royal family." Doreen added.
How could he not know!
Philomena sneered inwardly and said to Doreen: "Whoever got the investment from him has someone come over. I still have some questions to ask."
"this……"
Doreen hesitated and said respectfully: "Kris is my adopted daughter. She has a firm belief and is extremely loyal to the church. I hope the high priest will not embarrass her."
"Don't worry, I only ask a few questions."
"Please wait a moment."
Ten minutes later, Chris followed Doreen into the office, bowing and bowing very nicely.
Only then did Philomena notice that she had met Chris at the airport. Looking at her youthful face, she couldn't help but complain in her heart.
It’s great to be young!
"You are Chris, right? You are so beautiful."
Philomena waved Doreen to leave, pointed to the chair in front of the desk, and said with a smile: "Sit down, don't be nervous, I just have a few questions to ask you."
Chrissy nodded and saw Philomena smiling kindly and marveling at the other person's beauty. As a girl, she couldn't help but feel moved. "Chris, are you familiar with Wayne?"
"Ah this..."
Chris blinked, not understanding what the high priest was asking Wayne for, and replied truthfully: "I have known him for half a year. We are ordinary friends. At his invitation, I would come to his door every night to give him tutoring lessons."
"This kind of relationship can't be called ordinary friends, right?"
"..."
Chrissy smiled. It was really ordinary. Wayne had developed several relationships like hers.
Philomena continued to ask: "What are the tutoring courses you gave Wayne? Please be more detailed. This is very important."
Chris secretly complained that the high priest seemed to be investigating Wayne. Should she say it or not? If any important information was revealed, Wayne would definitely be angry if he found out.
Seeing Chris frowning and hesitating, Philomena put on a straight face and said, "Chris, do you think love or faith is more important?"
Chris was dumbfounded: "High Priest, you misunderstood. I don't like Wayne. I'm really just an ordinary friend, and I won't like him in the future."
"I know, I will meet with Wayne this afternoon, and I will tell him truthfully." Philomena said seriously.
Chrissy: (;)
"Hahaha, I won't tease you anymore. To tell you the truth, Wayne saved my life in Luzerburg some time ago. Without him, I would definitely die."
Philomena smiled and said: "I have a good impression of him...don't be surprised, it's not your kind of liking. I'm just curious about what kind of person he is when I investigate him."
Philomena told about the cooperation between the Moonlight Church and the Windsor Ministry of Magic. Because Wayne saved her, she was arranged to be the image ambassador of the Ministry of Magic. In order for the two parties to cooperate better, she must understand Wayne's personality preferences.
Chrissy breathed a sigh of relief. It's not like she just likes him. No, it's not just about causing trouble for Wayne.
She said carefully: "High Priest, he is a good man and has saved me before. For this reason, I am embarrassed to refuse to make up lessons for him every night..."
"They are all basic theories of magic and do not involve Moonlight's belief. He just became a magician not long ago, and he just recently..."
"Wait a minute!"
Philomena raised her hand to interrupt, with a faint look in her eyes: "He just became a magician not long ago... Chris, is the information accurate?"
"Very accurate. It was March. I discovered that he had the potential to become a magician and was a genius. I planted the seeds of magic for him and led him to feel the glory of the goddess. Only then did he start to come into contact with magic." Chrissy nodded firmly, yes She came first.
Whether it was guiding Wayne on the path to magic or teaching him magic knowledge, she was the one who came first.
"March……"
Philomena's heartbeat quickened and she squinted her eyes as she said, "But as far as I know, Wayne is the pastor of the Natural Church and has nothing to do with our Moonlight Church."
"Um."
Chris was extremely aggrieved and said full of resentment: "If everything went well, he should have become the disciple of the goddess, but because his qualifications were so good, he was discovered by the high priest of the Church of Nature and became his student."
"Is there such a thing?!"
Philomena didn't believe it, and then she became furious and slammed the table and stood up: "This is unreasonable. That woman dares to rob me. She is also a member of the Life Alliance, so she has to be shameless!"
That's it.
Chrissy nodded with pecks of rice, because Xifei was Veronica's mother, and out of respect for her elders, she only dared to complain in her heart and never said anything with her mouth.
Philomena was furious. According to Chris, Wayne had been labeled by the Moonlight Church long ago. She became the high priest, and Wayne was just a soldier under her. Now he has nothing.
The more I thought about it, the angrier I became, and I wanted to rush to the Church of Nature to ask Xifei for an explanation.
"High Priest, it's too late to say this now. Wayne is already a silver mage and has come into contact with faith magic..."
Chris persuaded in a low voice that Wayne was already in the shape of the goddess of nature. Taking it away would not change anything. The only blame was that the Moonlight Church was not strong enough in Windsor and could not hold on to the good things it had.
These words are somewhat arrogant, which shows that Chris is indeed resentful in her heart.
Again, she came first!
Philomena was so angry that she walked back and forth in the office. She was so greedy for Wayne that she was almost drooling. Then she was shocked to hear the bad news. The soldiers who were supposed to be her subordinates had been intercepted by their allies.
If you want to rob people now, you have to pay an unimaginable price...
Spending money to buy your own things is nothing. The Ministry of Magic bullies honest people, and allies bully honest people. When will honest people stand up!
As for the Sun Church, does it also feel that honest people deserve to be bullied?
Chris tried to persuade her a few more times, but the effect was average. Philomena was so angry that she couldn't listen to anything.
After a long time, Philomena gradually calmed down.
She had just arrived in Lundan, and her foundation was unstable and her strength was insufficient. Even for the benefit of the church, she could not fall out with her allies. However, it was absolutely impossible for her to swallow this bad breath. She had to find a way to take revenge and return, otherwise she would not be able to sleep well during her beauty sleep. .
Philomena stared at Chris, thinking of ways to get revenge.
In the silver mage stage, magicians come into contact with faith magic. The life alliance is quite special. In addition to their own faith magic, they can also practice the faith magic of their allies. The three are combined into life magic.
Philomena thought something was wrong.
Yes, she was a step late, and Wayne took the shape of the goddess of nature, but being late also had the advantage of being late. It was easy to use, and after using it a few times, Wayne might not be able to expand into the shape of the goddess of moonlight.
Philomena didn't mind it, just pretending that Wayne was practicing his skills outside!
"Chris, you said you would tutor Wayne every night, right?"
"Um."
"After these basic courses are completed, I approve you to teach him the faith magic of the Moonlight Church. You can teach him all the knowledge." Philomena said solemnly.
"Ah this..."
Chris suddenly understood the plan of the high priest and was quite eager to try it. She said dryly: "It's not appropriate. After all, he is the pastor of the Church of Nature. If his teacher finds out, he will accuse us of robbing our allies."
"This is a task given to you by the church. If something happens, I will take the responsibility. Just follow it."
Philomena sneered and looked out the window: "Besides, this is not a robbery, we are just getting back what belongs to us."
Chrissy nodded repeatedly. She was right. It was just taking back what was taken away. This was divine revenge and a counterattack launched by the victim. It was shameless.
Seeing Chris' high morale, Philomena continued: "Just imparting knowledge is not safe. When you are making up lessons..."
She gave instructions and told some details about the make-up lessons. Such and such, such and such, will definitely make Wayne want to stop.
Honey trap!
Chris didn’t feel much after hearing this, it was such a childish trick, High Priest, where did you come from, an innocent girl, these things are not as fancy as she and Wayne usually play.
After Philomena finished speaking, she still had some unfinished thoughts. These were things she wanted to try but had never tried before. They were very exciting. Teaching them to Chris gave her a sense of accomplishment as a teacher.
Soon, she realized something was wrong.
It stands to reason that when the innocent little girl Chris heard the shameful advice, she should have blushed and shook her head desperately to refuse to obey. She reluctantly agreed under her combined kindness and power.
result……
Why don't you blush?
As the saying goes, as long as I am not embarrassed, others will be embarrassed. Chris did not blush, but Philomena was a little embarrassed.
Thinking about it, it is normal for a young person in love to kiss and touch her, but she has long been tired of it.
On the contrary, because she talked too much, she exposed the fact that she was inexperienced.
"..." x2
"Ahem!"
Philomena clenched her fist and coughed lightly, and concluded: "In short, you have a very heavy task. Wayne is the heir of the Landau family, and winning over him is very important to the church."
"What?!"
Chris' face suddenly changed: "Wayne is the heir to the Landau family?"
"you do not know?"
Philomena was surprised and pointed to the information on the table: "He is the illegitimate son of Auston Landau, the head of the Landau family. Everyone knows it, but he hasn't told you?"
"I, I...he never said it, and I...know it for the first time."
Chris' face was even more horrified. It didn't matter whether Wayne told her or not. The key was whether Wayne told Veronica.
Veronica, wake up, Wayne is your brother, you can't be together!
