God's Gift

Chapter 19 Meeting the Pope

Yu Youyou walked around the church but didn't see anyone from the church. Only a few people wearing blue dragon uniforms came in and out.

She touched her bag and found that the eggs inside had become much cooler. Remembering Emma's instructions, she found a corner and sat down.

Yu Youyou took out the two eggs from her bag and looked at the round eggs in her hands with interest.

After two seconds, she picked up the whole egg and stuffed it directly into her mouth.

But the huge egg was blocking his mouth and couldn't be put in at all.

Yu Youyou took out the egg, scratched his head in confusion, looked around, and found a stone next to it.

She tentatively placed the egg on a stone and smashed it, and the egg cracked.

Yu Youyou slowly peeled the eggshell along the crack, looked at the white egg core, and licked her lips excitedly.

She took a bite of the egg, and the taste of the egg entered her mouth, and Yu Youyou's little face suddenly squeezed into a ball.

"what……"

Yu Youyou pulled the egg out of her mouth with disgust and put the egg core aside, thinking that she might have eaten something wrong.

She looked at the eggshell in her hand and decisively threw it into her mouth. The eggshell was broken into pieces by her teeth in her mouth, making a "crunch" and "crunch" sound. Yu Youyou shook her head happily.

Disliking the taste, Yu Youyou pulled a few leaves from a roadside tree, wrapped the eggshells with the leaves, carefully rolled them up one by one, and ate a few happily.

A dog barking suddenly came from behind.

Yu Youyou was startled and sat down on the ground. Then she got up from the ground and ran a few meters away like a frightened chick.

There was another sound of a dog barking behind me.

Yu Youyou ran a few steps and felt that the voice sounded familiar.

She paused, turned around and found Gordo looking at it from where she had just sat.

"Godot, you're here too!" Yu Youyou widened her eyes in surprise, walked back sideways and sat next to Godot.

Godot glanced at Yu Youyou, sniffed the egg core that fell on the ground, and swallowed it in one gulp.

Yu Youyou looked at Godot's actions in shock and said in disbelief: "Ah, can I eat that?..."

After eating one, Godot sat in front of Yu Youyou and stared at the egg in her hand.

Yu Youyou quickly understood what Godot meant. She looked at the other egg in her hand, knocked it on the stone, threw the egg core to Godot, kept the eggshell for herself, and ate it while feeling puzzled.

"Your taste is weird."

Godot glanced at Yu Youyou, then quietly lowered his head to eat eggs.

When Lu Keming came over, he saw Yu Youyou rolling eggshells with leaves. She was shaking her head as she rolled the eggs, looking very carefree.

His brows were furrowed and he walked towards Yu Youyou.

"Lu Keming, you're here too!"

When Yu Youyou saw Lu Keming coming over, she greeted him happily.

When Lu Keming walked up to her, Yu Youyou enthusiastically stuffed the eggshell in her hand into Lu Keming's hand.

At this time, Lu Keming had changed into a dark blue uniform. The slim-fitting fabric outlined the lines of his body. With his cold white skin and gloomy temperament, he looked like an exquisite medieval aristocrat.

He lowered his head, looked at the eggshell stuffed in his hand, and frowned. But even though he didn't understand Yu Youyou's behavior, he didn't take the initiative to ask Yu Youyou what she meant.

When Godot saw Lu Keming coming, he stood beside Lu Keming.

Lu Keming looked at Godot deeply.

It's only been two days, and everyone has started to get close to Youyou.

Under Lu Keming's gaze, Godot's head gradually lowered.

"This was given to me by a sister I met in the village. It's delicious. You should try it." Yu Youyou was still actively trying to sell it to Lu Keming, interrupting his trance.

Lu Keming stared at Yu Youyou for a few seconds, then held the eggshell in his hand and turned his back.

"What are you doing here?"

"Oh, about this. Ali asked me to find out about the fire." Yu Youyou answered Lu Keming's question honestly.

"So what did you find out?" There was no emotion in Lu Keming's voice and his eyes were calm.

"Nothing much, except that the monsters in the forest existed before the church came, but I don't know anything else." Yu Youyou shook her head in distress, "So I plan to ask the old people in the village."

Yu Youyou was a head shorter than Lu Keming. Lu Keming was looking down at the top of Yu Youyou's head with an unclear expression.

He already knew what Yu Youyou said.

Asking Yu Youyou to inquire probably because they were worried that she wouldn't be able to find a job.

but……

Lu Keming twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, and bent down to look at Yu Youyou.

"The fire of hell has nothing to do with the church. You should check what shameful things those villagers have done. Their sins are the real reason for igniting the fire of hell."

"The church is not evil. They came to help the villagers. They have been using blessings to protect the safety of the village. Their good intentions were bitten back. How pitiful."

Yu Youyou looked up at Lu Keming, somewhat hesitant.

"But they came here just to recruit followers, and later they used blessings to protect themselves."

Lu Keming's expression froze for a moment, and he stared at Yu Youyou for a long time.

After a long moment, he smiled faintly.

It's actually harder to deceive than I thought.

"Even if they had other purposes, they protected the villagers. That's a fact." He stood up straight and looked down at Yu Youyou.

"That's true." Yu Youyou nodded in approval.

"So what you need to do now is to investigate this village and find out what happened before the church came." Lu Keming stroked the ring in his hand, speaking vaguely.

"Oh." Yu Youyou responded, but then she felt something was wrong. They were clearly cooperating, so why did they let her go alone? She looked up at Lu Keming in confusion, "Why don't you go check?"

The light in Lu Keming's eyes flashed, "Of course I will go check it out together."

"Okay." Yu Youyou was about to leave, but when she thought about what happened when she first arrived in this world, she stopped and asked Lu Keming sincerely, "By the way, why did the people in the church call you Lord Messenger of God before?"

"Because you are a messenger sent by God to help us." A kind voice came from behind and answered Yu Youyou's question on behalf of Lu Keming.

Yu Youyou turned around and looked towards the source of the sound.

He was an old man with a white beard and wearing a long robe that dragged on the ground. His face was full of wrinkles and he had a kind smile.

It's the Pope.

He first bowed to Lu Keming, then looked at Yu Youyou.

"Are you a friend of the adults?"

Lu Keming narrowed his eyes, and even though his brows revealed a hint of impatience, he did not say anything in front of the Pope.

Yu Youyou tilted her head and thought for a moment, "That should be it."

The Pope smiled and said, "Since he is your friend, I should treat him well."

"That's not necessary..." Before Lu Keming could finish his words, he was naturally interrupted by the Pope.

"You are welcome, sir. I feel friendly towards your friend and would like to chat with her more."

After saying that, the Pope looked at Yu Youyou again and smiled kindly.

"Little friend, would you like to visit our church?"

He stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation to Youyou in the direction of the church.

"miss you!"

Yu Youyou's eyes lit up when she heard his invitation. She happily ran to the Pope, forgetting about Lu Keming.

Lu Keming crossed his arms and looked at Yu Youyou, whose profile was brilliant, with a cold expression on his face. After a few seconds, he raised his foot and followed.
