Magical Cat
Chapter 48 Tongxinhui
Welcome to the Unity Society.
A deep voice echoed in the church.
Li En and Elaine saw a refined-looking middle-aged man emerge from beneath the dragon statue.
He wore gold-rimmed glasses, a pristine white godfather robe, and a kind smile on his face. His appearance was quite ordinary, giving the impression that he was easily forgotten.
"Godfather Sam," Melina greeted.
"Ms. Melina, it's been a long time." Godfather Sam responded with a smile, then turned to Elaine and Li En, and after a moment of silence, said, "You two are truly good children."
Elaine was taken aback and turned to look at Li En. Clearly, the two children Li En was referring to included Li En.
"The contract we made before should be related to this place. Don't be nervous, just listen to what they have to say," Li En instructed Elaine using his demonic thoughts.
Elaine remained calm, glanced at Melina, then turned and bowed, saying, "Hello, Godfather Sam, my name is Elaine, and this is Lee En."
When Godfather Sam saw that Elaine not only introduced herself but also Lee En, his eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly, saying, "Good, good, good, what a good child."
"Come on, let's sit down instead of standing here."
There were benches everywhere in the church, and they found a spot to sit down.
After Melina and Godfather Sam exchanged a few pleasantries, the conversation turned to Elaine and Lee En.
Melina gave a brief introduction to Elaine's situation, and Godfather Sam chatted with her familiarly.
During the conversation, Li En found that Godfather Sam was very approachable. He could put people at ease with just a few words, and his words and actions revealed his kindness in taking care of others.
Li En nodded, knowing that this Sam Godfather was no ordinary person.
Then, he turned to examine the enormous dragon statue in front of him.
"This is the faith of our Unity Society, the Holy Light of the Sun, Solaireus."
"We also respectfully call Him the Dragon Lord."
Noticing that Lee En's gaze was fixed on the dragon statue, Godfather Sam spoke up to explain.
The others were also drawn to his words.
To be honest, Lee Eun was quite curious about this Tongxin Association.
Melina's previous guidance in guiding them to sign that contract must have been related to this church.
It is very likely that Melina was one of the believers.
He and Elaine were already bound by this contract, so naturally he needed to learn more about them.
"Father Sam, what are the tenets of the Unity Society? I don't think I've ever heard of this church before," Elaine asked curiously.
"All beings are equal, we should help and support each other, refuse to suffer hardship, and build a peaceful life together."
Sam spoke slowly, emphasizing each word.
Li En raised an eyebrow upon hearing this.
Elaine was somewhat shocked.
"Are all beings equal? Father Sam..." Elaine couldn't help but ask directly.
Since her birth, the world has been filled with class differences between nobles and commoners.
Everyone took this for granted.
Therefore, Elaine naturally reacted this way when Father Sam said that the creed of the Fellowship of the Union was equality for all beings.
As for Li En, he had expected this.
An organization that spreads the idea that magical beasts can control magician contracts is definitely not simple.
From the phrase "all beings are equal," Li En immediately guessed that this so-called Tongxin Society had grand ambitions.
Godfather Sam was not surprised by Elaine's reaction and patiently explained, "That's right. The Dragon Lord believes that all living beings are equal, not just nobles and commoners, but also humans and magical beasts. Humans are not the only rulers of the world, but one of the many living beings, and are not fundamentally different from other creatures."
"Only when we coexist harmoniously will this world become a better place."
It was still the same old routine of guiding people towards goodness, which didn't surprise Li En.
Moreover, churches like theirs must primarily target the working class.
Otherwise, why would those noble lords who were already living well believe in their so-called Tongxin Society?
When interest groups are fixed, it is inevitable that some people will be exploited and oppressed from birth.
The more fixed one's social class, the less hope there is of changing one's social standing.
But who would willingly be born to be exploited and oppressed?
Only by breaking the current stable situation can there be a chance to turn things around.
Li En didn't need to think much to guess what the Tongxin Society was planning.
Throughout history, the struggles have always revolved around these very interests.
Elaine didn't respond to Father Sam's words, but instead silently observed Melina's reaction. Seeing that Melina merely smiled and nodded, Elaine couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, do you also endorse the creed of the Unity Society?"
"The teacher also thinks that there is no difference between nobles and commoners. It's just that nobles are born with better resources, which is why they seem so high and mighty. But doesn't everything they enjoy come from us commoners?" Melina countered.
Elaine was well aware that nobles did not engage in labor, and that the food and goods in society were produced by commoners.
But this is because the nobles possessed magic and absolute power, which led to the formation of such a society.
Elaine understood this principle, so she didn't think Melina would be unaware of it.
Seeing Elaine lower her head in thought, Godfather Sam spoke up, "Look at me, we've been talking for so long and we forgot to get you some drinks. My way of treating guests..."
Father Sam slapped his forehead and then invited them to the back of the church for tea and snacks.
Li En and Elaine came with Melina, so naturally they were in charge of making the decisions.
There were many rooms behind the church, and Father Sam led everyone to a reception room. After a short preparation, tea and snacks were brought out.
They continued their conversation, mainly focusing on Elaine. Godfather Sam asked her if she had any troubles in her daily life and studies, and offered her answers and guidance.
However, he would always quote the classics of the Tongxin Society and spread the faith of the Dragon Lord when he spoke.
Li En could tell that Godfather Sam wanted to bring Elaine into the Fellowship.
Elaine, however, was cautious. While maintaining politeness, she kept her distance and dared not casually join a church she had never heard of before.
Melina occasionally chimed in and chimed in, and she would also chat with Godfather Sam about personal matters, clearly indicating that the two had a good relationship.
At Father Sam's warm invitation, they had lunch at the church before saying goodbye and leaving.
Afterwards, the carriage returned directly to the academy. Elaine rested for a while before resuming her meditation and cultivation, working very diligently.
While Elaine was meditating, Li En quietly slipped out the door and made his way to Melina's office.
Instead of going through the door, Li En climbed out of the office window.
The window was open, and when she looked inside, she saw Melina lounging on the sofa, chatting casually with Luna, who was wrapped around her.
"This guy is quite relaxed," Li En thought to himself.
At this moment, Melina realized that a guest had arrived, sat up from the sofa, and looked out the window.
"Li En, you've arrived."
