On the way back to the church at speed, the blue moon that disappeared under the lunar eclipse had already begun to appear. When Jenkins climbed into bed and closed his eyes, the blue moonlight was no longer blocked by the red.
But it seemed that just as he closed his eyes in bed, there were numerous footsteps outside the door, and then someone knocked on the door hastily.
The combat teams are all back, and some of the personnel who have lost too much blood need to replenish blood urgently. But ordinary healing abilities are generally only for injuries or curses, so now they can only disturb the sleeping Jenkins again.
He left the chocolate alone in the room, and the cat's favorite piece of metal as a comfort, and hurried to his work.
This busy work lasted until four o'clock in the morning. After sticking his head into the back of the bed, he opened his eyes again, and it was already daytime shrouded in dust and mist outside.
"what time is it?"
Sleeping a little drowsily, I reached out to pick up the pocket watch on the bedside table, and almost knocked over the water glass.
"Ten o'clock? Oh, late!"
He picked up the cat lying next to the pillow and jumped up from bed. Amidst the cries of dissatisfied chocolate, he didn't even have time to eat breakfast, and rushed out after changing his clothes.
Even when he met Bishop Parode in the main hall, he just waved and said hello without saying anything. It took less than half an hour to arrive at Papa's Antiques.
Pushing open the store door, holding on to the counter under the surprised eyes of the old man, panting heavily. Although he just jumped out of the carriage and ran across the street, Jenkins felt that his father would be embarrassed to blame him for showing this state.
"How did you come here?"
"Um?"
"I remember that in the morning, I asked Bishop Parode to inform you that it's okay to come back after waking up today. You must have been too busy last night. It's really bad."
"Huh?"
The cat, which had been roughly stuffed into the coat just now, finally struggled to open the neckline and poked its head out. Judging from the expression on the eyes between it and Jenkins, the cat was very angry.
What happened last night caused a huge commotion, and the vision of the red moon across the sky could be seen across the entire continent. Even though people in this era are no longer as ignorant as they used to be, whether it is a solar eclipse or a lunar eclipse, it is still considered a harbinger of disaster. At least the whole page of the headline of this morning’s newspaper is to report what happened last night.
And Dad has more information, and Jenkins learned through him that there were three mysteries that were activated last night, and the one activated by the demigod-level vampire caused the greatest damage, and the gift that confronted it Those were the ones Jenkins treated last night.
As for the remaining two level 7 aliens, one encountered a demigod-level priest and Miss Bevanna from the Church of the Lord of Storms, and the other encountered a new believer riding a unicorn. The former was almost killed by two demigods, while the latter was seriously injured by the twin demons in the sky chase.
"Things are worse than we thought. Their purpose last night was obviously to obtain the blood of the strong, but we didn't know the reason."
The old man looked worried, "Besides, believers of new gods have appeared again. They are everywhere. They are like shadows. No one knows who they are, and there is no trace at all; but they are indeed real. Accidents happen all the time."
"But at least in this matter, the believers of the New God did help us."
Jenkins reminded.
"It can be said that. But believers of the new gods have been walking on the edge of breaking the law. If we want to divide the camps of justice and evil, then they must be the most dangerous neutral."
"But there has never been absolute justice and evil in this world."
Jenkins only dared to say this in his heart.
Horse-drawn carriages with passengers passed the shop door and drove further along the street. The metal crafts in the window reflect the soft firelight in the fireplace, and the firelight also makes Chocolate's beautiful black and white hair show a moving color.
Jenkins flipped through the newspaper in his hand while listening to his father describe what happened last night. Whether it's for the [Phantom of Reality] or for the dangerous mirror, he will continue to track down the vampires.
The biggest mistake I made last night was not using divinity directly. Although this means that the most powerful "weapon" in the hand disappears again, but once the mirror is destroyed, the power of the protoss who promises to manifest its might in the material world is also huge and effective.
"Next time we can't be so economical."
He nodded his head as a response to his father, and made up his mind that if he found the trace of the mirror again, he would never hesitate for a moment.
Since she can't go home now, and Hathaway, as a believer of the Mother Earth, is inconvenient to directly enter the Sage's church, so the discussion about the new opera script is put in Papa's antique shop.
Jenkins and Dad spent the time after lunch re-inspecting the goods in the store, and Chocolate enjoyed the dessert bought for it as compensation.
When Hathaway pushed open the store door and came in, Jenkins was tiptoeing in his shirt, trying to fit a cardboard box onto the top shelf. Inside the box are neatly stacked gift boxes, and some customers have strict requirements on the packaging of the goods.
"It's really amazing."
Dad asked the two of them to talk in the small living room on the second floor, so as not to disturb his business. After Hathaway sat down, she directly interrupted Jenkins' praise of her clothes, and then said with a sigh:
"Obviously the most popular writer and young nobleman in the kingdom, but still doing simple jobs like porters."
Hathaway knew that the significance of this work was not in the content of the work, but in the background of the work, so she never persuaded him to leave the antique shop.
"Life is always interesting... and the work part is high or low, we all do it for the society, ahem, it's all for making a living, I can't think of any place where there is a salary like that of Papa's antique shop. "
Thinking of the peace and comfort at this moment, I suddenly felt that the thing of riding a unicorn soaring in the cold sky more than ten hours ago became a bit illusory.
"And I needed the background of the church, which worked in my favor."
He shrugged and smiled at Hathaway.
"I've always wanted you to understand that. Jenkins, at least in this respect, you're luckier than most."
After the last dinner at the earl's house, the two never met again, and they didn't send a letter to Jenkins to avoid suspicion of the red-haired girl. Therefore, although she guessed something from her father's changes and behavior afterwards, she still didn't know what happened to the two people in the study that night.
