PFC Chapter 323 Holy Water Platform
Chapter 323 Holy Water Platform
With the third-level elemental affinity, she is fully capable of learning all kinds of magic. Although her grades have always been the last in Gloria, she is a serious junior magician after all. But here, people with the same talent as her can only sweep the dust under other people's feet every day.
She looked at the little girl in front of her and suddenly felt sorry for her.
——"Angie, that is your talent, a gift from the world to you. Are you going to throw it away?"
——Lilith's once sarcastic words suddenly echoed in her ears.
Angel was suddenly stunned. Maybe this was how Lilith felt about her before?
——No, no, no! That bad woman would never feel sorry for her! She quickly shook her head and denied it, looking at the little god in front of her, "Why don't you go to Goletia?"
"What?" Nora showed a trace of confusion on her face, "The witch city? What are you going there for?"
An Qi shuddered, and suddenly regained some rationality. Cold sweat immediately broke out - what was she doing! It was none of her business whether this girl learned magic or not! If she meddled in other people's business like this, she would only be regarded as a pagan who was secretly preaching.
"Nothing!" An Qi raised her head, "Go and do your thing, Nora Shenda."
Nora was a little embarrassed now, "Yes, sir..." Then she couldn't help but explain, "I didn't delay on purpose. On weekdays, I am responsible for cleaning the holy water table. Today, the princess came in person, and Cloyshenda was afraid that I would not do well and cause trouble, so she asked me to come here. I have never been here before, so I got lost."
"Go over there, that's the east." Anqi pointed out the direction to the little guy who was poor at finding his way with an expressionless face, and then quickly left the corridor.
As she walked along, she couldn't help but keep looking in the direction of the holy water platform - Has Goletia started school? Why did Catherine come to the Temple of Light? She never missed a class... What are you learning now? She remembered that she was supposed to learn the basics of magic pattern drawing this year...
Angel walked slower and slower. She looked in the direction of the holy water platform again and chose the farthest road back there.
"Tap-tap-tap-"
The huge holy water platform was made of several naturally golden stone slabs. Shallow grooves were formed by erosion over the years. Clean holy water seeped out from the hidden cracks in the backstage and slowly gathered at the edge of the stone platform. Water droplets hung on the edge of the platform and finally broke free after a long while, dragging the water light into the quaint water bottle in front of Catherine.
"You should hold the holy phial—"
The priest in white tried to warn the princess in front of him, but she just looked at him expressionlessly. The terrifying aura of a superior in her eyes made him swallow his words of advice back into his throat.
The princess's mood was far from being as calm as she appeared on the surface. Every drop of holy water that fell was like a drop of red-hot iron dripping into her heart, burning her to the point of being uneasy.
School has already started, but there is still no news from Lilith. Catherine, with a blank expression on her face, is filled with anxiety. She is already in a mess, but is called back by a message from High Court. Her first task is to go to the temple to receive the inexplicable holy water for the king.
What's the difference between scooping directly from the pool and dripping slowly like this? Catherine's eyes flashed with annoyance. The king just liked to order her and her father to run errands. He enjoyed it. He regarded the right of inheritance as a carrot hanging in front of the horse's head and drove them. He thought that all the efforts made by their family were for this carrot - how ridiculous!
The huge statue of the God of Light stood on the holy water platform. The merciful Father God lowered His head and looked down at His believers. There were no facial features painted on His face, so when looking from below, no matter from which angle, one would feel that the statue was staring at them.
During this long and boring wait, Catherine looked up at the statue above.
——Does God really help people? If I pray to Him, will I get news about Lilith?
--No.
Catherine hesitated for only a second before suppressing this ridiculous thought.
She didn't need to pray to God, and neither did Lilith. She would find Lilith on her own, even if Lilith was extremely disappointed with her secretive behavior, she would find her and apologize to her face to face.
She lowered her head and no longer looked at the God of Light who dared not even show his face to others.
The water level in the bottle slowly rose and finally reached below the thin long neck. Catherine grabbed the bottle and turned away without paying attention to the priest's call behind her.
"You didn't spit in it?"
As soon as she came out, she bumped into Kanian who came to stop her after hearing the news. This guy made people angry just by opening his mouth.
Catherine didn't even want to give him a glance. She walked quickly with her black skirt lifted up. She was like a marching black lotus in the snow-white corridor, which was out of tune with the holy atmosphere around her.
"Is Lilith back?" Kanien did not forget the purpose of his visit to Catherine and asked her.
"...No." Catherine's eyes flashed dimly.
"Your Goletia is such a waste!" Kanien was anxious when he heard it. "She is just a little girl, how far can she run?! Oh, poor Lilith, she must have been kidnapped! Could it be for money? After all, her father owns a vein of magic stone."
"At least Leila didn't receive any blackmail letters before I came." Catherine said bitterly, "The teachers said they would do their best-"
"They are just a bunch of idiots as stupid as you!" Canion was furious, as if he had lost not his sister's classmates but his own relatives. Catherine couldn't help but look up to him in such a hurry.
"Send it to the palace quickly, don't waste time." Kanien did not continue Lilith's topic, but instead urged her and kindly told her more information.
"Father has sent a letter to Mother asking her to come as soon as possible..." Kanien whispered side by side with her, and everyone knew what he meant by the unfinished words.
Catherine looked at Canyon with a hint of surprise on her face. Even her mother had to rush back. Was she ready to attend the funeral? Was King George really going to die this time?
"Don't disbelieve it! Her Majesty the Queen has summoned all the famous costume craftsmen in the city to carefully make a grand funeral dress for her. You only need to go to her palace to see how happy she is." Kanian squeezed into the carriage with her.
"It seems you have been busy these days." Catherine clenched the bottle in her hand. Too much information crowded in her mind, making her anxious, but her face remained calm.
"Of course, I knew you were unreliable. I have to find Lilith myself." Kanyon cleared his throat proudly when he heard that.
…………
"You said that Kanien asked you to take a group of Knights of Light?"
Duke William confirmed it in astonishment in front of His Majesty the King's bed.
