Chapter 205 How ridiculous! He is still a child!
Flora failed to get the recommendation as she wished and left the office with a smile on her face.
Xifei frowned as she watched the other person leave. Just because she didn't intend to bargain didn't mean she couldn't bargain. If he just left like that, there must be something wrong.
The Natural Church has seven major divisions in the God-Chosen Continent. The high priest of each division has two recommendation slots, and the Natural Church headquarters has another four recommendation slots, for a total of eighteen candidates.
Flora couldn't get a spot in her division, let alone in other divisions, even though Flora was the previous saint, had good looks and temperament, and had a huge fan base.
Those who chase stars are just ordinary people, and the top management won’t buy into that.
When Flora was still a saint, the high priests of each district treated her with great respect. Now that Flora has stepped down, she is just a retired cadre who is only a priest in rank and has less power than the high priest of the district. There is no benefit in giving her face.
After some analysis, Xifei concluded that Flora could only get a recommendation from the headquarters.
But the headquarters is in chaos. The Pope and the Great Prophet both want to control the next Saint, and those high priests of the oracle are also ready to make a move. Who will give the precious spot to Flora?
Xifei thought about it and it seemed that there was no possibility. Then she thought about it again and it seemed that all of them were possible.
Flora has been a saint for nearly twenty years. Except for the first few years when she was stationed in Paris, she has been working at the headquarters ever since then. She has been fully present for fifteen years. During this time, she must have built up a lot of connections.
A power-hungry former saint, in order to return to the peak of her career, did not hesitate to take the initiative to transfer to a sub-district to help her former defeated subordinates...
The more Xifei thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Flora must have received support at the headquarters.
"That's not right. The competition for the headquarters' spots is too fierce, and it has always been exclusive. Having lost once 20 years ago, she must win this time, unless she is confident of winning and finds a partner with a superior status."
Xifei looked at the recommendation form on the table and fell into deep thought. After a moment, she shook her head. Compared to the quota at the headquarters, she believed that Flora had not given up. This woman would cause trouble recently.
----
Landau Manor, study.
Veronica and Wayne sat upright, and Xifei placed two recommendation forms in front of them: "The Church of Nature is about to select a saint. Are you two interested?"
Veronica tilted her head and looked at Wayne curiously: "Mother, can he also be a saint?"
"Well, to be honest, I am actually a girl."
"..."
Veronica rolled her eyes, feeling disgusted.
"Wayne, stop messing around."
Xifei smiled and said, "Because of her status as a goddess, the tradition of the Natural Church has always been to select saints, but there is no explicit rule that only saints can be selected. If a young male magician is good enough, he can become the son of God who listens to the oracle."
Then, Xifei talked about the job of the Saint/Son, which included conveying oracles, maintaining the image of the goddess in the world, being the incarnation of the goddess, etc. She had several duties and was mainly responsible for publicity work.
Wayne nodded and understood. He was usually a literary soldier, but he could go all out when necessary.
"At the same time, as the natural disciples closest to the Goddess in the world, the Saint and the Son have the opportunity to listen to the voice of the Goddess, which is a rare gift for any magician."
Xifei looked at her daughter and students, trying to read the anticipation on their faces.
General effect.
Veronica tilted her head and glanced at Wayne. Wayne had an expression on his face as if he was obeying the instructions and did not have a strong desire for the Son of God.
Xifei rubbed her temples. These were the two best cards in her hand, but they were both a bit unmotivated.
It cannot be said that they are not motivated. Both of them are extremely passionate about believing in magic, but when it comes to belief itself, they immediately become less enthusiastic.
Xifei put the blame on Auston, saying that the bastard had been meddling in her affairs all along, and privately, he must have instilled the idea of freedom without faith in his daughter and heir without her knowledge.
In the dream, Auston's face became ugly again.
Let him fly a few more times tonight!
"Veronica, do you want to become a saint?"
"Ah? Ah! Uh..."
Veronica thought seriously for a while: "The daily work of the saint is too heavy, and I have to work at the church headquarters. I don't like to travel far, and I have a bad temper. I am afraid that I will offend a lot of people..."
Veronica spoke tactfully, expressing her desire for the saint while also expressing her concern about her own inadequacies.
Seeing her so conflicted, Wayne kindly translated, "Teacher, Veronica means that she wants to fall in love."
Bang!
Veronica punched Wayne in the face and told him, gritting her teeth, to stop talking nonsense. She would never fall in love, not in her life.
Xifei blinked and said, "Little fool, you are obviously in love."
"What about you, Wayne?"
"I'll follow the teacher's arrangements. If you ask me to sign up, I will." Wayne patted his chest, playing the role of filial piety.
Veronica snorted coldly and looked away unhappily.
"Wayne, you don't want to be in a relationship?"
"Teachers are more important than love."
Wayne praised himself loudly, and then changed the subject: "Besides, my love life has not progressed. The girl I like told me to give up and said she would never fall in love in her life."
Xifei laughed out loud and felt extremely bitter in her heart. Veronica was just like her in the past. Even if she signed up, she would give up everything for love at the last minute.
Wayne's situation is roughly similar.
Sure enough, for children of this age, love is far more attractive than faith.
Xifei really wanted to scold the two of them from the perspective of an elder, saying that children should not rush into love affairs, and should first establish a career and then start a family, and that career should be the most important thing.
But when you think about it, one is the eldest daughter of the Lando family, and the other is the heir of the Lando family. Both are silver wizards at a young age and have been very successful in their careers.
Even if we take a step back, given what she did back then, these words are really untenable.
After all, he is her child, she can let him do whatever he wants!
Xifei laughed at herself and asked Wayne to think about it carefully. Although the Son of God was busy with official duties, the benefits were real. She firmly believed that with Wayne's talent and ability, he would become a legend in the future if he became the Son of God and received the guidance of the Goddess.
Upon hearing this, Veronica couldn't help but advise Wayne that there were many benefits and he could sign up and not be hard on himself.
Wayne was secretly delighted, but his expression remained unchanged: "Teacher, you don't have to persuade me. I said at the beginning that I don't care. Your opinion is more important."
"To be honest, there was a person who once boasted to me about his glorious history. About 20 years ago, he tricked the candidate for the Saint of the Church of Nature into marrying her, and how he had a smart and lovely daughter..."
"I still remember that look clearly. Teacher, you don't know how proud he was at that time!"
"He laughs like this, hahahahaha——"
"It's not convenient for me to say who it is. I promised Auston Landau that I would not spread rumors, let alone reveal his name."
"..." x2
No, you've named someone! x2
Xifei raised his eyebrows and increased the maximum flight radius tonight.
"Teacher, I heard that the candidate for the saint was not happy after marriage. She gave up opportunities for love, but ended up suffering for herself."
Wayne stood up from the sofa and said in a loud voice: "She has been waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to prove herself. She is fighting for this opportunity not to get back what she lost, but to tell everyone that she is so amazing, just for this opportunity!"
"As her student, I would rather never fall in love in my life than not help her get back her pride!"
"..." x2
Veronica stared at the social garbage in amazement, her eyes were hazy and the image of the trash can became taller than ever before.
At least it’s taller than the previous generation of trash cans!
"Good boy, I know you are the best."
Xifei was extremely moved. She took two steps forward and hugged her student. She knew that in life, one could only make a mistake once and it was impossible to make a mistake every time.
Wayne expressed what was in Xifei's mind. The reason why she was hesitant was indeed due to selfish motives. She wanted to prove herself through her students.
If not for anything else, then it’s because of the bad feelings I’ve endured during these years of wandering!
The more sensible Wayne was, the more reluctant Xifei was. For a moment, her obsession dissipated a lot. She smiled and wiped away her tears: "Forget it, sister is an experienced person. Children of your age should pursue unforgettable love. Twenty years is too long. Don't give up your youth for others."
"Teachers are not others, they are my most important family members."
Xifei was deeply moved and hugged Wayne tightly. There was still room in her arms, so she hugged Veronica as well.
For a moment, the whole family was reunited and the atmosphere was very warm.
Austin: (speech)
There was no soundproofing in the study. Austin happened to pass by and happened to eavesdrop. He felt that something was missing in the room, so he stood outside the door and hummed lightly.
The effect was average. Xifei was too lazy to pay attention, waved her hand to set up a soundproof barrier, and said to Wayne: "The story that person told you was not complete. The candidate for the saint may have been deceived and got married in a muddle, but she does not regret it. She has a lovely daughter and a sensible student. She is very happy and does not want to break this happiness."
As she spoke, she filled in Wayne and Veronica's names on the recommendation form.
"Mother?"
Veronica didn't understand. They had agreed to give up, but why did they do it so decisively?
"I have a very annoying person in Lundan. She is the previous saint and my former rival. She is always acting weird in front of me, pretending to be a winner and mocking me for being a loser."
Xi Fei snorted twice: "I will give you a task. If you meet the candidate she recommends and defeat him, your task will be completed."
She didn't argue about the Son of God or the Holy Daughter, and encouraged Wayne and Veronica to seize the time to date.
but!
She neither fought nor let Flora win. She threw out the trump card in her hand, vowing to label Flora as a has-been saint.
When Veronica heard that her mother was wronged, she was immediately filled with indignation. She didn't even know who Flora's candidate was, and regarded her as her lifelong enemy.
Wayne also nodded repeatedly. No matter who the other party was, he would rush to the front to help the teacher vent his anger.
"Teacher, is the last Saint the Flora Evelina you mentioned to me before?"
"It's her. This woman is very scheming. I haven't brought you to the division headquarters yet, just to prevent her from doing something sneaky." Xifei snorted coldly.
Wayne raised his hand and touched his chin, his eyes flashing: "Teacher, what does she look like?"
"She's quite a pretty woman, with a good-looking appearance... Why are you asking this?" said Hiffy.
"I'm afraid she'll use the honey trap, so I'm on guard in advance."
"Right."
Xifei thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.
Her students are so outstanding that unless they give up voluntarily, they will be chosen as the Holy Son as soon as they sign up. Even the goddesses will be amazed when they see it.
The candidate nominated by Flora has a zero chance of winning. She cannot win head-on and can only resort to underhand tactics. In order to realize her ambition for power, she may actually use the beauty trap herself.
After sleeping with her and making a big fuss about it, her student was no longer even qualified to be a candidate.
How ridiculous! He is still a child!
Xifei imagined it, and saw Flora laughing and holding up her pants. The student covered her face and sobbed helplessly. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and his magic power almost went out of control.
Veronica: (_)
She roughly guessed what her mother was thinking about, and glared at the social scum. Based on the diaries she had read in the past few months, she guessed the social scum's battle plan.
Veronica: You borrowed the excuse of revenge for your mother and fell into the honey trap. Anyway, you don't want to be the Son of God, right?
Wayne: Don’t slander good people. I didn’t fall for you when you took off all your clothes and used your beauty to seduce me the first two times!
Veronica: Come to my room later and see how I deal with you.
The two stared at each other, and Xifei waved her hand to push away a cloud of green mist, shaping it with her mind, portraying Flora's appearance.
Sure enough, it's you!
Wayne narrowed his eyes slightly to hide the murderous intent in them.
He recognized the face, from the night he confronted the Dark Knight, when the teacher's sudden flash of thought had lured both knights into chasing him at the same time.
Because of his cover, the Dark Knight was forced to give up the pursuit, and he used his super vision to see the true face of the 'teacher' that night.
Flora Evelina!
She used some unknown means to make her thinking become exactly the same as Xifei's, and at the same time she offended two knights, bringing Xifei into a fatal disaster.
Wayne secretly hated his teacher. To put it bluntly, if he wasn't the Death Knight, if he hadn't shown his obsession with the High Priest of the Church of Nature that night, his teacher would have been captured alive by the Dark Knight.
The consequences would be disastrous, but because he was a teacher, he didn't elaborate.
Flora, you're dead!
Since you enjoy interacting with the knight so much, I’ll let you get what you want someday.
Wayne is sharpening his knife, ready to put on the Death Knight's vest and kill the opponent. It would be best if the Dark Knight is also present so that he can put the blame on the opponent.
"Hey, is it really that beautiful? You keep staring at it without blinking." Veronica snorted heavily.
“It’s really beautiful!”
Wayne's mouth corners curled up, and his white teeth reflected a cold light, making Veronica feel a little chill.
There is murderous intent!
Xifei also noticed it and subconsciously asked: "Wayne, have you seen her?"
"No, it's the first time we met."
Wayne scratched his head with a well-behaved look on his face. "I don't know why, but I always feel that this face is hateful. The candidate she nominated is in trouble. I would rather not be a saint son than let her not be a saint daughter."
Veronica didn't understand where Wayne's hostility came from. Referring to the diary, she said sarcastically, "What's your plan? Are you going to use your beauty to kill him?"
"Wonderful!"
Wayne clenched his fist and clapped it on his palm: "Why didn't I think of this, Veronica you are such a genius, I will do as you say when the time comes."
Veronica was furious and wanted to deal with the shameless social scum on the spot.
Seeing that the relationship between the two was heating up and there would be some interaction next, Xifei didn't want to be a light bulb, so she removed the soundproofing barrier, pushed the door and walked out of the study.
"Come with me, I have something to talk to you about." x2
At the door, Heaphy caught Auston who was still passing by;
In the study, Veronica grabbed Wayne by the collar.
Exactly!
Auston did not resist, as resistance would only make Dragon Blood more excited. Before leaving, he glanced at Wayne and asked him to come to the study after he received the order, as he had something to discuss.
Wayne returned the look while being dragged away by his own dragon blood.
Five minutes later, with the sound of artillery fire one after another, Wayne saw Auston in the grove.
No need to go to the study, we can talk here.
Wayne raised his hand to comb his black hair, straightened his messy clothes, and said as if nothing had happened: "Auston, what do you want from me? If it's the selection of the Holy Son, I have already promised the teacher."
After finishing tidying up his clothes and hair, Auston said coldly, "Why did you agree to her? You should have no interest in the Son of God."
I am interested in the Saint!
"Twenty years ago, the teacher failed in the election for the saint, and gave up for love. Because of this, she suffered a lot of grievances, and risked her life to get the current position of high priestess..."
Wayne babble, repeating his touching words of filial piety: "I can help the teacher prove myself, and I am willing to do so."
Austin was speechless. After a while, he said, "You are the heir of the family. You cannot become the Son of God. Twenty years is too long. If the Ministry of Magic knew about this..."
"If the Ministry of Magic knew about this, he would definitely give his full support. I understand the logic. If the heir of the Tulip family becomes the Son of the Church of Nature, he will be doomed if he is not careful." Wayne took over the conversation.
"As long as you know!"
"The teacher also knows that she has no intention of letting me become a Holy Son. She asked me to sign up for another reason."
Wayne told the story truthfully, emphasizing Flora: "This woman has bad intentions. She wants to drive the teacher away so that she can become the high priest. I will kill the candidate she nominated, help the teacher get back at her bad temper, and finally give up the election of the Holy Son."
Auston's expression became much better, and he said faintly, "I know who Flora is. To be honest, there's nothing wrong with her driving your teacher away. The church is too chaotic, and it's safer to get out in time."
Wayne did not refute, but nodded and said, "Indeed, the Dark Knight is ruthless and ruthless. He wiped out the headquarters of Lundan once, so he would not mind doing it again."
"Don't forget the Death Knight, he's not a good guy either!"
"Who says it isn't?"
The two nodded in agreement and started cursing at the same time.
"Damn Dark Knight!"
"Damn Death Knight!"
At this time, Megan came to the grove with a medical box, looked at the two people in front of her like they were looking in the mirror, and said expressionlessly: "Master, Master, there is only one set of gauze, who will come first?"
"I'll go first." x2
