Lunar phase

Rom remembered that it was an ordinary ominous night, the dim last quarter moon hung in the sky, the howling autumn wind, mixed with the wailing of wild animals, made people uneasy.Rom finished the school work to take home later than usual, and went to bed to get ready for sleep.Seeing her crawling under the covers, Miko Rashi hugged her like a stiff wrinkled-footed slug.Rom didn't love him as much as usual, she touched him a few times, then closed her eyes and fell asleep, she was too tired.

"You're so busy," Miko Laixu's sticky and mournful voice sounded in her ears, "If I really become the principal, I'm afraid I won't even have time to hug me."

When it comes to being the headmaster, Roma's heart always sinks to the bottom of the sea, which means leaving the laboratory, or sitting at a lonely desk to deal with the school's income and expenses, or going to different places to lobby potential allies, in short, it is not a big deal The family is also a difficult job to please.She was no more what she used to be than Miklesh was a mad beast.Roma's volunteer business is not in business at all. Compared with delicious family dinners and annoying or warm bodies, the Old Gods, the Church of Healing, and Byrgenworth are nothing.

And it wasn't suitable for talking at that time, she kissed him to show comfort, the annoying guy whimpered a few times, and they both fell into the arms of sleep.The next morning Rom woke up Miklesh and held him in his arms lovingly.

Anxiety, however, must always be mitigated, and Romm had mentioned it bluntly when Miklesh was sober.

"Not to be the principal?" Miko Laishi showed a rare surprise, "The school property has increased, and it is enough for us to live a lifetime after careful calculation."

"Don't think about the school," Rom replied flatly, after all, they were no longer short of money.

"Teaching is not good, let alone a reckless person who is so stupid that he can't write. Look at Lawrence, how terrible. It's better to put the school's resources in a better place."

"What's better?"

"Our lives."

"You recovered from the animal nature so easily, do you want to go back!"

Rom scolded him for saying stupid things, and drove him to the sofa in the living room with a cane. Miklesh didn't think it was a problem at the time, as long as he wanted to see, the school's account books were no different from the corpses in the ancient tomb.Although virtue is the part of human nature that is different from beasts, it needs nourishment from generation to generation.

Micklerash slept on the couch until Christmas morning.However, whether the blood moon rises or not, he can't bear the night that he can't sleep with Rom in his arms.During the holidays he gave in, and in the name of all the ancient gods, visible or invisible—what a swear—was no longer thinking about the school's property, and Rom put him back in bed.

Perhaps it was because of this incident that Mikolaish changed his character, and his strategic style changed from petty theft to covert external plunder, so that in the future, the hunters of Ahag also carried out the kidnapping accurately. Quests, corpses, strangers, even nuns from the church.

Miklesh did not receive a sane teacher in Ahag. Either the residence was empty, or he was summoned by the blood moon and became a shaggy animal patient, and even died from the church hunter's precautions. .Miklesh walked silently on the edge of the sloping roof, watching the hunters wielding all kinds of barbaric weapons, sending all non-human living things into the arms of death-sometimes including the hunters themselves.One address after another was crossed out from the memo by Mikko Laish. The more doors he walked, the less hope he had in his heart.

Walking to the last address, he lost his mind again.There was only one lycanthropy patient left in that place. It was thin and short, biting its nails embarrassingly.The three hunters surrounded it unhurriedly, it was so small that their tired and loose formation was so spacious that Mikoresh didn't even need much calculation.He rushed into the siege just like that, and released an irregular secret technique, which made the legs of the three hunters sore, and he took the opportunity to drag out the patient.

Miklesh remembered that this "person" was so small in stature and so cautious in his movements. He should be one of the few young people under Roma. They were born in urban areas, but they were also selected from popular courses. What a perilous slog for Byrgenworth.These young men, who had just turned from students to teaching assistants, occasionally turned to Rohm for advice on the most difficult problems in alchemy, and seemed promising.However, when they were sober, they didn't have time to create any value. They had nothing but difficult medicines and gratifying theories, and at this time they lost the opportunity to see the truth and enjoy themselves forever.

The patient didn't remember Miko Rashi, and after the panic passed, he began to bite him.Although this is not unexpected, it is inevitable to make people sad.Even if it is animal disease, it used to be a scholar of Bilkingworth. Miklesh took off his school uniform and wrapped the patient, dragging it all the way to the gate of the old Yharnam district, throwing it over the partition wall, there is an indecisive The retired hunter is happy to take care of it, even without the school uniform as proof.

The machine gun rang a few times in the air and then went silent. No matter what Zula expressed, Miko Raish didn't want to think about it any more. He arbitrarily placed the fate of others and entrusted it to greater uncertainty. This moral choice gave him a headache.However, living with Roma, one has to consider the weight of morality, not to please her, but the price of being a human being.

Mikou Raish took out the sedative and drank it. After the blood moon, this thing should be carried with him, so as not to lose consciousness and die.He returned the same way, climbed up the intact roof, and had unrealistic hopes that his colleagues would emerge from the end of the street and alley, recite the mysteries of the ancient gods with him, and return to school side by side.In this way, Byrgenworth will not lose the power of revival. If Roma agrees to be the principal, it will be an indispensable resource.

Reality is often regrettable.Mikko Reich didn't meet half of his colleagues, and all he saw was killing.The stench of blood was thick, rough hunters brandished strange weapons, patients and sane families howled and wailed.The flames of eliminating the plague are everywhere, and the hooves of the horses are rushing.

"Scholars stay!"

A thick sound came from the street not far away, and Miklesh stopped, and the horse and the white shadow on it crossed the complicated intestine-shaped path and quickly approached him.After hesitating, he saw the church pattern on the fluttering shawl and the handsome face, and realized that nothing good would happen.Maintaining Yanan's etiquette, Mikor Raisu bowed on the roof and waited for the other party to speak.

"Bishop Lawrence invited scholars to go to church." Ludwig reined in his horse, "Please come with me."

Although the words were polite, what Miko Raish thought of was only the potion he had just drunk.That's what he thought at the time: he would rather have Roma's dowry than have anything to do with the church.

So he turned and ran.In time, he'll learn that things are backfired.
