MTL - How To Wear a Goddess Statue-Chapter 7 little priest

The priestess watched her daughter leave, and then glanced at Eleuil, her expression was still rigid, and could not see anything special.

She said to the man in Chinese clothes sitting beside her: "Sir City Lord, this is Princess Eleuil."

"Oh, Your Highness Eleuil." He seemed very apologetic, "I should have greeted you at the gate of the city, but these days are really busy, and it is unprecedented until today. It's very rude to come to visit."

"In my apologies, please accept my gift."

The city lord clapped his hands, and the guard standing on his left took a step forward and opened the wooden box he was holding, revealing several kinds of Cadella specialty desserts inside.

In all fairness, these foods look very delicate and delicious, but as a gift to the princess, it is too frivolous, and it is not an exaggeration to even say that they are deliberately provocative.

The city lord looked at Eleuil with a smile, as if waiting for her reaction.

The little princess lived up to her expectations and asked: "City Lord Katiera, what do you mean!"

"Why is Your Highness so angry," the city lord asked knowingly, "Could it be that I was not well entertained?"

"You..." Eleuil gritted her teeth, as if she remembered her current situation at this moment, and was unwilling to suppress her anger.

She wanted to calm down, but the city lord went ahead: "Is sweets not to your taste? Don't worry, I won't force you to accept it."

Eleuil clenched her hands tightly, her chest heaved up and down, but she couldn't get angry, she said bluntly: "It doesn't matter. I have to go to the school, so I will go first."

After she finished speaking, she turned her head and strode out, obviously very angry.

But only Luodus, who was following her side, saw that the little princess' expression quickly calmed down after she turned around, with a thought in indifference.

Sure enough, she would not be so reckless.

Lotus thought for a while, then floated back to the room.

At this time, the priestess had nothing to do with herself, and was anxious in her heart. This is the child that Goddess Luodu entrusted her to take care of. If she offends the city lord here...

"Princess Eleuil is really spoiled, she doesn't even understand manners, please rest assured, City Lord, I will teach her well."

The city lord of Katiera smiled indifferently: "Mu Ya, you are always so strict, it doesn't matter, do I care about this with a child?"

The priestess bowed her head and said, "Lord City Lord is tolerant."

The city lord shook his head, and stood up from the chair with difficulty: "Since I have seen this highness, I should go back."

He led the two guards along the wide avenue to the carriage parked in front of the temple gate, the priestess stood behind, watching their backs worriedly.

Luodas followed. She couldn't seem to be too far away from the temple now. Fortunately, this distance was enough for her to listen to the conversation of the city lord.

"Sir, these snacks—"

"I lost it, do you still want me to eat it?"

"My subordinates dare not."

After a brief silence, the guard asked again: "Sir, we didn't do what that person ordered this time, will we do it in the future?"

"No need, a little girl who is happy and unhappy on her face, pampered in Wangcheng, what threat can she have."

"But the lord said..."

" The one only said that if there is a threat, he will get rid of it, but he did not say that he must do it. The princess was sent all the way to Catiera, so many opportunities to do it, and I did not see anyone along the way. Mind, do you think murdering the royal family is a joke?" The city lord's voice suddenly rose, "That is to be cursed by the gods!"

The two guards seemed to be shocked, and the atmosphere did not dare to come out.

After a long time, the city lord's tone softened: "No matter how good this princess was in martial arts and arrows, she can only be slowly abandoned in the temple, and she is not a prince, what are you afraid of? Let her say Maybe it will come in handy in the future, so this is the end of the matter.”

Hearing this, Luodus had reached the farthest distance from the temple, and had to stop and watch the carriage go away.

—The little princess' caution is not without reason.

She is surrounded by dangers, even if she is exiled to Katiera, the enemies in the royal city are still worried. It's just because of contempt that I don't do it now. If Eleuil is a prince, I'm afraid they will cut the grass no matter what.

Lotus sighed and returned to the temple the same way.

She looked along the small window of the school. Among all the schoolchildren, Eleuil’s sitting figure was particularly outstanding. No matter who saw it at first, it would only be her. It is a light that cannot be concealed even if it is deliberately concealed.

One day in the future, those people will regret their contempt for the little princess.

She thought, she couldn't help showing a hopeful smile, floated lightly through the wall to Eleuil's side, looked up -

The priest's daughter, Rhea, was standing in the middle of the three circles of students, blushing, holding a book and stammering in her lectures, her voice was so low that even Eleuil couldn't hear it here clear.

Luodasi was a little dazed, looked around, and didn't see any teacher who looked like an adult, which meant that it was indeed Ruiya who taught these schoolchildren.

Looking at Ruiya, who looked more immature than everyone present, Luodus: "…"

———

Riya felt like everyone was looking at her.

The hand holding the book trembled involuntarily, the body was sweating coldly, it was difficult to breathe, and I didn't even know what I said.

I clearly agreed with my mother that I would give a good lecture to the new school children, take this opportunity to exercise myself, and get rid of the problem of being nervous and stammering when speaking in front of others, but it still does not work.

Riya's eyes wandered, facing Talsa sitting in the first row, the other party looked impatient and his eyes were full of disdain.

Tulsa is even more disturbing.

Riya whispered the content that had been prepared long ago, and was so frustrated that she wanted to cry.

I can't even teach in a small classroom. How can I inherit my mother's position in the future? How can I hold a sacrificial ceremony for the temple under the watchful eyes of the people of Katiera.

Can the great goddess Rhodes really accept such a useless priest?

After class, Ruiya ran away in a hurry, and she could hear the sound of school children laughing and imitating her stuttering from behind.

She thought sadly:

"Please forgive me, please don't hate me."

"Goddess of the Ilu, what should I do to be worthy of your holy priesthood..."

With this idea in mind, Ruiya didn't go to teach the schoolchildren in the afternoon, she went to the library to isolate herself.

In the past, the books that recorded all the folk-related stories of the great goddess did not seem to be so charming, and she was full of her failures in school.

The more she thought about it, the more she resented herself. Ruiya put the book aside carefully, buried her head in her arms and sobbed softly, and fell asleep while crying.

When Luo Das came to the library as usual, and planned to float up to the third floor, he saw the little priest who was sleeping with half of his face buried in his lap.

Luo Das's movements paused.

Would you like to take a look?

Luodus struggled for a moment, but floated to the little priest, ready to see if she could enter her dream.

The result is positive, as the daughter of the chief priest of the Katiera Temple, Rhea is also a loyal believer of the river goddess, and her faith shines like her mother.

In the moment before the scene changed, Luo Das suddenly thought of the little princess, and felt a little guilty for no reason.

Strange, she asked the priestess to help take care of the little princess. Of course, she should also care about the other party's daughter. There is nothing wrong, why should she feel guilty.

Lotus opened his eyes in the little priest's dream confidently.

Different from the various clear backgrounds in Eleuil's dream, Ruiya's dream was depressing and blurry, gray and mourning.

The little priest squatted in the corner of the dream, like a pitiful mushroom.

Suddenly she stood up, holding the book of praise that the priestess never left her in her hand, and was surrounded by a circle of gray shadows. start to go wrong.

The gray shadows immediately became arrogant, clapping their hands and laughing, imitating her mistakes.

So Ruiya's voice became smaller and smaller, and the number of stutters increased. After reading a compliment, she refused to continue, and squatted down again to play the mushroom.

At this moment, the figure of the priestess appeared aside, her serious and rigid expression was exactly the same as in reality.

She only said one sentence: "Riya, you really disappoint me."

"Sorry, mother, I can't help it, sorry—"

Everyone has something they are afraid of or are not good at. The situation of the little priest is normal to Luodus, but for Rhea herself and her strict mother, this lack is fatal of.

The temple priests in Solancia are hereditary. Except for the high priest with the highest status, they need to pass many tests to select. The position of the chief priest of each city is passed down from generation to generation.

From mother to daughter, from father to son, regardless of blood relationship or adoption, as long as the family does not commit a serious crime, this transmission will not be terminated.

So, Ruiya is destined to inherit the Katiera Temple. One day, she will preside over the sacrificial ceremony in front of everyone, what should I do then?

Lotus doesn't think one has to overcome this obstacle, but Rhea's identity requires it, as does her desire to become a qualified priest.

The intention has been set, and Luo Das appeared in front of Ruiya.

"Head up, my believer," said the spirit.

The little priest suddenly felt that it was not so dark in front of her eyes. She raised her head in confusion, and saw the **** she believed in standing in front of her, and the light and soft light around her dispelled the darkness.

She could hardly believe her eyes.

"Goddess Luodus! Am I dreaming..." Ruiya pinched her arm in a trance, but it didn't hurt.

I was dreaming.

Luodus said inscrutable: "Dream does not necessarily mean false, just like what people think is not necessarily true."

Riya seems to understand, but she still knows one thing, that is, it is indeed the goddess she has seen in the sacrificial room.

The first reaction was surprise, but then it turned to fear.

The little priest bowed his head deeply: "Are you here to punish me?"

Luodus was startled: "Why do you think so?"

"I'm too stupid to learn how to speak in front of others, and I'll screw up your rituals in the future."

"You said it well."

Ah, I was praised by the goddess.

Riya's eyes brightened, and then she thought of something, and she slumped: "Only in front of your idol and mother can I speak well, and I can't do anything well in front of others."

Lotus: "You can do it."

Riya whispered, "Do you believe me?"

"Yes, I believe." Luo Das smiled, "What's more, it's not a bad thing to not like words, even if you don't say a word at my festival, I'm still happy, because Your soul shines just as well as your faith."

After saying this, Luodus escaped from the dream with familiarity, and a few words were enough.

Riya woke up, thinking about Luo Das's words in a daze, her eyes lit up a little, she quickly ran out of the library, wanting to tell her mother about today's legendary experience.

Halfway through the run, she stopped again.

No, not yet.

Wait until she can speak fluently in front of others and live up to the trust of the powerful and gentle god, then tell her mother, and her mother will be proud of her.

The little priest's footsteps became steady again.

At this time, Eleuil was sitting in the classroom, and inadvertently looked up at the window, and saw the whole process of Ruiya's change from sprinting to small walking.

It was very boring, so she looked back and wondered why she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable just now, and she didn't expect the little priest outside the window at all.

I repaired it for a long time before I posted today, but Orz was late for a long time, and made a sound of kneeling and kowtow.
