In the long-lost Puluo city, people seem to live happily ever after, and the plague demon attack did not leave any shadows on the people of the holy city.
It's just that it's midsummer now, there are very few people on the street, and cicadas are everywhere, making people feel restless.
More than three years ago, the plague demon kidnapped the future Holy Maiden Belle, but it had little effect on ordinary people, and it was her father, Principal Colin, who was hit the hardest.
In recent years, Principal Colin has rarely been involved in the affairs of the college, and there are even rumors that the Principal intends to find a successor.
This is rare. The average life expectancy of people in the Red Moon Continent is about 150 years old. Magicians and senior warriors generally live to 300 years old. Principal Colin is only 130 years old this year. The academy has only been around for ten years, and he has to abdicate so early. It can be seen that the daughter's incident has really hit him hard.
Chino was wiping his sweat while fanning his hand. Seeing that Puluo Academy was in front of him, he exhaled and asked, "Are you going back to the academy, Xiwei?"
Xi Wei shook his head and nodded again, "I don't live in the academy, but I have to go back and hand in my homework first."
"Homework? Oh yes, homework."
It was only then that Chino remembered that Puluo Academy would assign extra homework during the summer vacation every year. During the two-month summer vacation, at least one must be completed before the next semester can be successfully entered.
The reason why Xiwei went to the small town of Siwa was to complete the homework for this semester.
The fourth grade's homework was to bring back the antlers of a demon reindeer, a monster unique to the Nightmare Forest, so Kino was sure that the protagonist would definitely go to the town of Siwa during the summer vacation of the fourth grade.
Because of the poverty of the protagonist, he can neither buy a horn nor hire others to help him catch it, so he can only go there himself.
Fortunately, the school did not assign homework to embarrass others. This kind of magic reindeer is not difficult to catch, but the distance is a little far, and the summer weather is hot, so it seems a little hard.
The scorching sun was almost burning the road, and Chino and Xue Ji were both languid and lacking in energy, and followed Xi Wei listlessly to the Puluo Academy in the summer.
Suddenly a gust of wind came from behind, Kino didn't have time to sigh that the weather was a little cooler, only to see Xi Wei inserting his palm instead of a knife into Kino's ear with lightning speed, blocking the attack of the people behind him.
Then, under the scorching sun, I saw two figures shuttle back and forth, fighting hard.
After about a quarter of an hour, the uninvited guest raised his hand and surrendered, muttering unwillingly, "Perverted, it has improved again."
Xi Wei warned him coldly, "Evan, next time, I won't be as polite as I am today."
Kino took a closer look, wasn't it Evan, who took off the figure and appearance of a boy, and at first glance looked awe-inspiring, noble and inviolable.
Actually a fighter.
Evan didn't care about Xi Wei's warning, he smiled and put his arm on Chino's shoulder, and introduced himself, "Hello, little brother, my name is Evan, why are you following this wooden man? what?"
"Wooden Man" Xi Wei glanced at Evan's arm that was scattered around irregularly. If possible, he had probably removed that arm.
E-Rough Nerve-Wen didn't feel the malice from the protagonist at all, and was still getting close to Kino. Kino rolled his eyes at him, and stopped paying attention to him once he said his name.
The fighting maniac who fights as soon as they meet, just wanted to sneak attack.
After harassing Kino, Evan found the blood princess who had been looking at him with curious eyes.
He changed his body and turned into a handsome young man, and gave a standard knight's ceremony, "Beautiful lady, can you tell me your name, I will be your most loyal knight."
The knight ceremony was a ritual that existed in the last era, and Xue Ji was no stranger to it, so she stretched out a hand and handed it to Evan. Evan was stunned, and then he held the back of Xue Ji's hand and kissed it lightly.
Originally, the current knight ceremony is only a part of the formality, and few people continue to do the kissing ceremony.
Fortunately, Evan received the most formal royal etiquette education since he was a child, otherwise it would be a shame.
Xue Ji smiled at him, but she didn't hate this abrupt guy.
Xi Wei was too lazy to deal with them, and continued to walk to the Academic Affairs Office, where homework was handed in.
The horns of the reindeer were obtained before they met the two unicorn cubs. Fortunately, this was the case, otherwise Xi Wei would not be able to hand in his homework, and he might have to repeat his class.
The teacher at the Academic Affairs Office turned out to be Tasia, the female teacher who helped Chino with the talent test and student management. Chino felt a little intimacy when she saw her, and finally had a feeling of returning to Puluo Academy.
This time, he is no longer a primary school student in the compulsory education class, but is preparing to become a student in the magician class.
The summer enrollment of Puluo College is about to start, and Chino is confident that he will be admitted.
After handing in the homework, Evan proposed to go to dinner - of course, he treated the guests, it is impossible for the miser and the poor protagonist to treat the guests.
Although they have obtained a lot of inheritance from the previous owner of Xue Ji, these precious gems cannot be exchanged for money at all. If they can't get it right, they will be targeted. As a result, they are still poor.
Without the corresponding ability to protect the property, no matter how many treasures there are, it will only become a stepping stone for others.
Evan didn't invite any expensive places, because he knew that Xi Wei didn't need it, and the more upscale places, Xi Wei wouldn't go.
They were eating, and taverns have always been a place for gossip, so they were fortunate to hear a piece of news.
That is, now that Belle has been missing for more than three years, the temple seems to have finally given up its plan to retrieve the future saintess.
Kino absent-mindedly picked up the meal while listening to the gossip of the people around him.
"Do you know, I heard that this year's saintess has already been decided by default."
"Isn't it the default for Belle before, who else can make the temple default?"
"It's true. My uncle is a Templar. He said that the next selection of saintess is just a formality. In fact, the candidates have already been decided."
"Is there anything special about this new saint?"
"It seems to be because of the pure light physique that is rare in a century."
"That's no wonder."
The Holy Maiden of Light is assumed by someone with a pure and bright constitution. Even if it is an internal decision, it is understandable. This is the will of the goddess, and the people in the temple believe so.
Chino was fascinated, with a pure and bright physique, which sounded like he was very powerful.
There is no such passage in the original book. I didn't expect that the butterfly effect when I was young was so powerful. The boss Xia An didn't die, and the plague demon was released smoothly.
This series of changes all started from Chino's crossing.
Thinking of this, Chino suddenly has confidence in the road ahead. Since the plot can be changed, the fate of the protagonist cannot be changed, right
At least the intersection of these various beauties and the protagonist is very small.
Sister Xiaowu will not save the protagonist and then fall in love with Xiwei for a long time, the Elf Queen is missing, Jonya will not have a relationship with Xiwei, the life and death of the femme fatale Belle is unknown, and the ambiguous scenes between the blood princess and the protagonist have also melted. For nothing, thinking about it this way, everything is developing in a good direction.
In a happy mood, Chino couldn't help but eat another bowl of rice.
Xi Wei glanced at him, wondering what he was happy about.
It was also a coincidence that they came back. The selection of the Holy Maiden of Light will be tomorrow, and the announcement of the succession ceremony will be the day after tomorrow. It seems that the temple is really anxious.
After dinner, Evan went back to the academy, while Xi Wei took Chino and Xue Ji back to the house he rented.
The house was very small, but it was fairly clean. Leaving the maid and Chino behind, Xi Wei continued to work.
Chino followed him secretly and saw that the protagonist had changed jobs in three places after nightfall, including a waiter in a restaurant and a messenger in the post office.
Thinking that Xi Wei has worked so hard all these years, his eyes couldn't stop feeling sore.
Readers can only see the glamorous and domineering side of the protagonist, and few people want to know about their difficult times.
Even though he entered Puluo Academy, Xi Wei's life didn't seem to be getting any better.
Chino pretended not to know, but lost sleep at night.
The selection of the Holy Maiden of Light will not be made public, but the succession ceremony will be open to the general public.
So early on the third day, Kino jumped up and dragged Xi Wei to visit the succession ceremony of the Holy Maiden of Light.
The scene of the succession ceremony was already very lively, and many devout believers were silently praying for the goddess' care.
The Holy Maiden of Light is the spokesperson of the Goddess of Light. She can talk to God and listen to the heavens. It is a very sacred position, so Belle in the book has so much energy.
When the first ray of sunlight shone on the earth, the current saint came out. The veil covering her face all year round had been removed, revealing a beautiful and holy face, but her youthful appearance could not hide the tiredness and vicissitudes in her eyes. - She is very old.
The old man is running out of fuel.
After a series of ceremonies, the new saint was invited out. Her body was light and her eyes were full of vitality and hope. Although she was wearing a veil, she could not stop her youthful breath.
As soon as this new saint appeared, Kino felt a little dizzy. This was not someone else, even if she wore a veil, she could recognize it at a glance.
The new Holy Maiden of Light is Xiao Wu, the daughter of Mr. Xilun in Pink Street in Ye Sa City when she was a child.
