Chronicle of the Temple of Light

When Haider came to the right side hall, Aldrich was explaining something to the adjutant. After the adjutant left, Aldrich picked up the documents on the table and continued to review.

"Master Turens?" The priest at the door was puzzled, and Haider quietly looked at Aldrich at work.

"Aldrich is busy now?" Haider regained his senses and asked nonsense.

The priest replied: "There are indeed a lot of documents that have been backlogged before. The Pope hasn't had a good rest during this time."

"Forget it," Haider didn't know whether he was talking to himself or talking to the priest, and then added, "If he is free, you can tell him that I have been here, in the left side hall Wait for him."

"Okay." Although the priest didn't understand why the knight commander came here in person, he dutifully wrote down this sentence.

Haider nodded to him and walked towards the left side hall.

When he appeared in the left deputy hall, several adjutants in the hall were a little surprised why the knight commander would come here even when there was nothing to do. Generally speaking, as long as there was no important matter, the knight commander would stay in the holy knight order.

"Master Turens." They didn't dare to neglect, and they all greeted Haider respectfully.

"Is there any work for me?" Haider asked casually, not caring about their somewhat reserved attitude.

Several adjutants looked at each other in blank dismay, and in the end there was a not-so-old adjutant who moved a stack of documents from the desk and said, "These need to be stamped with your seal, we have taken care of everything except the seal."

Haider looked at the stack of documents as thick as a "History of the Development of Magic in the Mainland": "...Didn't I give my seal to Tolan?"

Hearing this, the little adjutant put down the documents in his hand, ran to the cabinet, took out the printing box hidden inside, and handed it to Haider.

Haider: "..." He slowly looked at Adjutant Tolan.

Tolan covered his face: "I really can't beat it by myself."

Haider sighed: "Bring me all you need to knock, and I'll do it."

The eyes of several adjutants lit up when they heard the words, and Haider was overwhelmed by the sea of ​​documents.

Haider: "..."

At the beginning, he was still typing the stamps one by one seriously, but later his hands started to get sore, so he switched to magic, suspended the documents neatly in mid-air, and stamped them one by one as if they were alive.

The adjutants didn't care what method Haider used to stamp the seal. For them, it was the greatest happiness that the boss was willing to help.

Until the evening, Haider finally ordered the seal to be stamped, and there were not many documents to be stamped for the time being.

Seeing that several adjutants were still busy, Haider said, "Let's go eat first."

Originally, the adjutants had already gone to eat at this time, but today, due to the presence of their immediate superiors, none of them dared to bring up the matter easily. Seeing that Haider took the initiative to advance, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

"Master Haider, are you with us?" The straightforward little adjutant asked aloud, and the adjutants who had just breathed a sigh of relief froze and looked at him quietly.

Haider was ignorant, and was about to agree: "Okay——"

Suddenly remembering that he had an appointment with Aldridge, he said discouragedly: "Forget it, go ahead and eat, and bring me a pumpkin soup and lamb chops after eating."

The adjutants had no choice but to have dinner with their superiors, and before the little adjutant could speak, they all agreed.

After they left, Haider turned off the magic lighting crystal lamp and only lit the candlestick in front of him.

Sitting behind the large desk, he stared blankly at his fingers pointing out his mind, feeling nervous before his execution.

He didn't know how long it had passed, how many times he had adjusted his sitting posture, when he heard footsteps outside, they stopped at the concealed door and politely knocked on it.

Haider looked at the burning length of the candlestick on the table and calculated the time. The adjutants had almost returned after eating, and said, "Come in, the door is open."

The door was pushed open from the outside, but it was not the adjutant he imagined, but Aldrich.

"Are you looking for me?" Aldrich subconsciously looked towards the only light source in the room, which made him a little dazed.

Haider's exquisite eyebrows and eyes were lingering under the candlelight, and he looked straight at Aldrich, the blue in his eyes now looked like a lake embraced by the sunset, a little intoxicating.

"It turned out to be you." Haider was a little nervous. He heard his voice hoarse, so he cleared his throat, and performed a ball of light as if to cover up, letting the ball of light replace the magic energy to temporarily light up the crystal lamp.

Aldridge regained his senses and nodded: "What's the matter?"

"About the contract——" Haider adjusted his mentality. Just as he said a few words, he heard a familiar voice from outside, which seemed to be from the little adjutant: "Huh? Why is the door open?"

Then there was a sound of footsteps, and the adjutants all entered the door, and they were a little surprised to see Aldridge: "Your Majesty the Pope?"

Aldridge noticed the dinner in their hands: "Who is this for?"

"It belongs to the Knight Commander. He hasn't had dinner yet." The little adjutant subconsciously replied.

Haider is a little broken at this time, is it too late for his adjutants to appear? !

"Do you still have work?" Haider took a deep breath, feeling that he couldn't give up at this time, "Aldrich, let's go to the side hall to talk."

Aldridge took the silver tray from the adjutant's hand, followed behind Haider, watched him open the door of the side hall, walked in, put the tray on the table, and said, "You eat first."

Haider was indeed a bit hungry, but he was not at the point of being desperate when he saw something to eat. He wanted to finish his sentence first, but saw Aldrich's serious eyes, sighed, and removed the lids of several dinner plates , I was a little dazed about the dishes inside.

He remembered that he only asked for pumpkin bisque and lamb chops?

He thought for a while, and said to Aldrich, "Would you like to have some together?"

"Okay." To his surprise, Aldrich agreed.

Aldrich was also very innocent. He wanted to have dinner after processing the paperwork, but he didn't expect to be told that Haider was waiting for him, so he went directly to the left side hall to find Haider, so he didn't eat his dinner.

Of course, if there was only one pumpkin soup and lamb chops, he would not accept it. Those things were not enough for Haider alone.

Haider was stunned for a moment and didn't say anything, but then he found out embarrassingly that the adjutants only brought one set of tableware.

Aldrich obviously saw it too, and he reached out to Haider for a knife and fork: "If you don't mind?"

Haider thought he was very hungry, so he quickly gave him the tableware.

Aldrich took the tableware, cut up the lamb chops, and handed the tableware back to Haider.

"You don't want to eat?" Haider took it blankly and asked.

Aldrich shook his head: "You eat first."

Haider felt his face was a little hot, he lowered his head and pretended to eat the cut lamb chops seriously, and suddenly said, "Would you like some soup first?"

Aldrich looked at the spoon in the soup bowl, and there was obviously only one spoon, so he found an excuse, shook his head and said, "I don't like pumpkin puree very much."

Haider was somewhat disappointed when he heard this.

Paying attention not to touch the fork, he quickly put the remaining lamb chops into his mouth, and while he was still chewing on the food, he handed the knife and fork to Aldrich.

Only then did Aldridge take the tableware, and began to eat the remaining dishes brought by the adjutants.

Haider tried hard to swallow the food in his mouth, reached out to take the bowl of thick soup, and drank it in small sips, while peeking at Aldrich.

He was concentrating on eating, and he didn't seem to be picky about anything, but Haider noticed that when eating cauliflower, Aldridge always frowned slightly, chewing very slowly, and seemed to be hard to swallow .

Haider put down the soup bowl and said to Aldrich, "Give me the cauliflower."

Aldridge obviously didn't expect Haider to say this, he looked up for a second or two, and then realized: "Oh, yes." Then he seemed to secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

He subconsciously picked up a cauliflower, and then realized that something was wrong, but Haider didn't think about it. Watching him raise his hand, he leaned forward very naturally, leaned over and took the cauliflower away.

Haider was chewing, looked at Aldrich who was obviously stunned, blinked, and suddenly realized that his actions were a bit intimidating.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Haider cheered himself up from the bottom of his heart, while trying not to avoid Aldrich's gaze, he swallowed the cauliflower with difficulty.

Aldrich withdrew his gaze and stared at the dinner plate, as if there were flowers growing on the plate.

"Aldrich," Haider took a deep breath, "I learned from Cesia the reason why we failed to terminate the contract."

Aldridge looked up suddenly.

"us--"

"Master Haider!" There was a knock on the door, "It's urgent!"

"Why do you always interrupt me at such times!" Haider took a deep breath, but still couldn't hold back, "No matter how urgent things are, I am not in a hurry now!"

The person outside the door: "..."

Aldrich: "..."

This is the first time that Aldrich saw Haider getting angry, not counting when he was still in God’s Domain. In the past few years of working together in the Temple of Light, Haider was often lazy, even if he was almost depraved before. At that time, Haider's appearance was closer to rational cruelty than to being angry like now.

The people outside the door were also quite frightened, but because of his duty, he still said: "Master Luke and Lord Hughes are fighting, and Lord Cecia asked me to come to you."

Luke and Hughes are two of the nine holy knights of the holy knights. They usually have a good relationship and can wear a pair of pants, but suddenly they fight something that no one can think of.Moreover, the tone of voice didn't sound like the usual joking and slapstick. Things must be a little tricky for Cesia to send someone to find him.

Haider obviously understood this too. He cursed in a low voice, and then said to Aldridge: "Cesia said that in the divine marriage contract, the blood is unwilling to leave the heart of the other party because the two parties like each other."

Aldridge didn't react for a while, but after Haider said this, he was ready to go to the Holy Knights.

Haider paused, and looked back at Aldrich, as if hesitating or shy: "Aldrich." He called the other party's name.

Aldridge looked at him stupidly, Haider took a few steps towards him, raised his head and kissed his lips.

One touch away.

There was a knock on the door again, and Haider didn't say anything this time, he opened the door and left with the man, leaving Aldrich standing alone in the side hall, touching the corner of his lips in disbelief, as if he could still touch it. Like temperature.
