Chapter 133 Sudden changes in the dinner situation (Part 2)

Sally was feeling a little anxious at this time, and she felt more and more that Rody was in such a situation because of her willful mischief before, but at this moment, no matter how she used the topic to save it, Rody was still You guys Talk about yours, I'll eat mine——After staying like this for a long time, Sally finally softened her heart, and decided to have a chat with this guy to save him some face, but when she just looked up, she found that Roddy looking straight at myself...

This kind of direct gaze made Sally's cheeks flush a little, but then she noticed that Rody's expression suddenly became a little strange, and his gaze was slightly off, moved to the side—and followed Rody's gaze. Looking around, Sally found that what he was looking at at this moment was the maid Mel behind her.

Mel also noticed Roddy's gaze, and asked with some doubts: Captain Roddy, is there anything I can do for you?

Oh, can you help me... Luo Di smiled and picked up the wine glass at hand, shook it and said, ...Would you like to pour wine?

OK.

Mel nodded in agreement, and then walked to Rody's side. While pouring the wine, he found that the scout captain's gaze was always on him...

This, what does this mean?

Not only Mel, but even Sally couldn't understand why Rody did this - why staring at the maid for no reason? It's impossible for Mel to be a bad guy. Could it be that he...likes this type of woman?

Girls' ability to associate is beyond the sky, not to mention the ability to eat vinegar. At this time, although Sally didn't believe that Roddy would have a cramp in his head to the point of looking at her ordinary maid, such an idea still made her feel uncomfortable. Her heart is sour...

Of course, as a native of this world, Sally would never have thought of what Rody was worried about—

In fact, a few minutes ago, Rody was idly thinking about the advanced task of Witcher Hunter. Later, he couldn't think of it, so he suddenly had a whim, trying to compare the two knights, Titus and Wellington, who is more powerful, so He secretly opened the Status Bar of Surrounding Characters to see which of them had a higher level.

However, because of this, he immediately sensed that someone in this room was... not quite right.

The names of all the maids, even John Butler, seemed to Rody to be harmless green, but only the maids behind Sally, whose basic level was almost the same as Rody's, were displayed in yellow.

The status bar of surrounding people can't show whether a stranger is an enemy or a friend, so although he is alert in his heart, he can't directly ask Mel's identity—what if she is just a female bodyguard who secretly protects Sally?

However, the cautious Rody still felt that this situation was not quite right, especially after the Duke's Mansion had undead spies like Alpha before, he would never naively think that there would be nothing tricky here. So when the maid named Mel was pouring wine beside him, he suddenly interrupted Bishop Rubens' talk about the relationship between believers and sects and asked directly: By the way, have you Have you heard of the ghosts of the Tasman kingdom?

When such words were asked, everyone was taken aback for a moment, including Mel who had just poured wine for Roddy. The maid's heart skipped a beat, but because her expression was dull in the past, she didn't show any extra expression at this time, but slowly retreated behind Sally without changing her expression...

Tasman? There has been no news for a long time, Captain Roddy, can you tell me something new?

The bishop who was interrupted frowned and looked at Rody. He had already had a lot of opinions on this humble but impolite scout captain, so his words were already vaguely thorny.

But the Duke of Angmar on the side raised his brows slightly, thinking of something faintly, and said calmly: The Tasman Kingdom has existed for thousands of years,

Although they remained silent most of the time, I remember that they had several exchanges with Karen Kingdom, and they all maintained a friendly attitude. If I remember correctly, the last time I heard from them was twenty-two years ago.

Rody and the Duke looked at each other. Although the two had never had much communication, they had an indescribable tacit understanding at this moment - Angmar's words gave him a chance to continue expressing, so Luo Di Di immediately answered: It's like this. Some time ago, I heard the name and a story of an undead from a bard. It seems to be...Ansadin or something... The story is about the undead trying to destroy The whole continent or something, I've been wondering, will the Tasman Kingdom do this?

While speaking, Rody glanced intentionally or unintentionally at Mel who was standing behind Sally. His environmentally sensitive fighting posture allowed him to immediately confirm a certain possibility, but before Rody had time to say anything else, Rubens His cold snort suddenly froze the atmosphere at the table--

It's just nonsense!

The bishop waved his hand, and obviously sneered at Rody's remarks, Can you believe the words of bards? Can you believe stories from hearsay? Captain Roddy, do you think such things are very interesting?

This was a merciless refutation. Although his tone was still calm, the imposing majesty of the superior still made the table quiet for an instant...

Roddy rubbed the space between his brows, but did not respond. The Duke of Angmar looked puzzled and narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Rubens; Sally, like the two knights, looked left and right in a daze, not understanding why such a situation happened...

At this time, the dessert has been served, which almost means the end of the luncheon. Rubens is not interested in continuing to hold on to Roddy, and instead tells another purpose of coming here today:

Forget it, let's talk about something else—before arriving in Houlier City, Bishop Benjamin kept mentioning in his letters that Sister Sally's talent for practicing divine arts was extremely high. After seeing it with my own eyes, I also This fact has been confirmed.

Seeing that everyone at the table turned their gazes away except Rody, he continued: After this speech is over, I am also planning to return to the 'Holy Temple', so I hope to bring Sister Sally back with me and participate in the speech. A two-year or so 'Temple Refresher'.

This is a screening that the 'Holy Temple' will only conduct every five years. I myself only have one place in this plan, so I hope that the Duke will fulfill it. This can be regarded as my... thanks to the Luciferon family.

As soon as Rubens finished speaking, the restaurant fell silent.

The Duke of Angmar narrowed his eyes slightly, quickly thinking about the information hidden behind Rubens' words, while Sally frowned in a daze, still not understanding what such advanced training meant.

But soon she remembered something she had heard a long time ago: every five years, the priests of the Rosary Cross above the bishop will select some extremely talented young people from all over the country and bring them to the St. Temple for two years or more... In the past, these people were called geniuses. The excessive bishops and diocesan bishops are basically such characters.

But now, Rubens told Sally that she had such an opportunity and qualification!

My heart was filled with joy at first, but then suddenly trembled...

for a period of two years.

When thinking of the time limit, Sally suddenly realized what such an opportunity meant—if she followed the bishop and left here, she might not be able to see Roddy again in two years!

two years!

Sally felt that her breathing suddenly became difficult. Although she would cry sadly because of the story of Princess and Knight told by bards in the past, when such a thing really happened to her, then This kind of huge helplessness immediately pressed down like a mountain...

Her eyes were extremely confused for a moment, and many messy thoughts kept popping up in her heart: to go or not to go? How to tell Roddy? Will he wait for me? Could it be that he has gone far away since I came back? or…

If such a matter were taken away, Sally would definitely be able to think clearly about the problem, but at this time, because Rody was in her mind, the so-called balance of pros and cons was immediately completely ignored in front of emotional thinking...

She opened her mouth slightly, and didn't know how to answer for a while, but before Sally could answer the bishop, Rody's words came to her ears abruptly and ruthlessly:

This is a good opportunity! It would be better if we stayed for a few more years, and it would be better to stay there forever!

Stay for... how many years? stay there...don't come back?

Sally stood there dumbfounded, her mind was buzzing, but she couldn't believe what Rody said - didn't he want to see herself at all? Does he wish he left and never came back?

He, he, how could he do this? !

Does he hate himself so much? !

Once the girl's thoughts are cut to the point, it is absolutely impossible to pull seven or eight cows back. Sally thought of Rody's performance when she confessed her love before, and the soreness in her heart suddenly burst out uncontrollably, her nose soured, and tears almost fell directly.

I...I'm not feeling well...

Sally covered her mouth and looked at Rody for three or four seconds. Crystal tears glistened in her eyes, but then she turned around and ran out of the restaurant sobbing...

Such a sudden change made Rubens stunned, and immediately blamed the culprit on Roddy who was talking nonsense. He turned his eyes to the scout captain with some annoyance, and angrily said: Captain Roddy, what you said What means?

The bishop has been in a high position all year round, and such a face-to-face scolding really has a certain momentum, but Luo Di ignored such a question at all, stood up directly, and raised his arms facing the front...

This posture is like a hooligan who is about to strike at a disagreement, the corners of the bishop's eyes twitched, the young man in his heart is really too arrogant, does he even want to strike directly at a disagreement?

Seeing Rody's reaction, Rubens immediately stood up and prepared to respond. He had already started to chant the divine spell prayer in his mouth, but he discovered the problem just halfway through the casting process——

Rody didn't even look at him, but pointed at the maid behind Sally's seat.

PS: I have been working on the outline of this plot for the past few days. It is estimated that I have to change it three or four times, and it is almost smooth now. .
