Sheryl City
Cathedral
Today, Sheryl City was peaceful as usual.
There were no restraint chairs and no perverts forcefully groping b.r.e.a.s.t.s here, there was only a group of normal people who loved to live.
Within the church, the devout believers were praying to the G.o.ddess. On the streets, peddlers were haggling over prices and selling various goods with loud voices. Although the town wasn"t flourishing, there was a feeling that was unique to small towns.
But who could"ve antic.i.p.ated that there was an extremely dangerous person hiding in the normal town? And furthermore, she was living in the church?
No, she wasn"t a human, she was a cat, a high-level demon, a red-eyed black cat!
“Oh, Great G.o.ddess of Light, we eulogize you, you are the master of all of heaven and earth! The one and only True G.o.d! …”
Within the church, while everyone was kneeling in front of a tall sculpture of the G.o.ddess and praying, in an unremarkable side room, a cute girl stuck her head out of a crack in the door and discontentedly complained.
“Ahhh, how annoying, these fools keep spouting this nonsense day in day out! Why can"t they understand that if praying to the G.o.ddess actually worked, us demons would"ve been wiped out long ago! In the end, you can only rely on yourself!” The cute girl clenched her fists, and angrily cursed.
That"s right, this little girl hiding in the side room of the church was Elena"s niece, a high-level demon, a red-eyed black cat, Elona! She was wearing a long white robe and a white hat that hid both her cat ears and tail, so she looked like a normal nun.
If Elena saw this, she would surely jump in surprise, her cute niece, a prided high-level demon, how did she get mixed up with nuns?
What was going on with this world?
As Elona was endlessly grumbling, a beautiful older sister walked over.
No, strictly speaking, she was a young woman. She was wearing a gorgeous long white robe, her smooth brown hair falling in front of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s. She looked about 30 years of age, and unconsciously made people trust and depend on her.
“Elona, what you"re saying is no good.” The beautiful older sister walked next to Elona and said while beaming.
“Sister Jasmine?” Elona evidently knew her, and greeted her with surprise.
“It might be hard for you to understand, right? We humans are very weak, so we need heroes, so we need religion… all those heroes might be phonies, and all our beliefs may be ridiculous, but even so, humans still have to strongly live on.” Saying that, Jasmine bent down and corrected the small hat she was wearing, so that those strange cat ears wouldn"t be revealed.
Yes, she was the bishop of Sheryl City that Elona met a month ago, Jasmine.
“Sister Jasmine…” Seeing such a beauty, Elona blushed and weakly answered, “W-what you"re saying is too complicated, I-I don"t understand.”
“Humans are not as bad as you think, you"ll understand one day.” Jasmine gently kneaded her cheeks, the feeling of her chubby cheeks was the best.
“But I still don"t understand… oh right, sister Jasmine, the way you"re saying it is strange, I"m clearly also a human!” Elona clumsily defended herself.
“Hehe, what a cute child.” She doesn"t know how many times it has been, but every time she sees Elona"s serious appearance, Jasmine has been deeply touched by her cuteness, “You don"t have a bad nature but you"re too pure and also too impulsive, it"s best to find someone to control you!”
“But, Sister Jasmine, I-I don"t want to be controlled by someone…” Elona pouted in response.
Although their voices were quiet, there were still a few nuns who curiously looked over. However, they were already used to Bishop Jasmine and that little girl"s behavior.
Why you ask? Well, the strange girl called Elona has already been living in the church for almost a month.
“Sister Jasmine, can you tell me when can Snow finally return?” At last, Elona couldn"t hold back and asked her doubts.
Before, Bishop Jasmine told her that Snow went to the Holy City of Cadina to meet the Pope and wouldn"t be back for a while, so she had her live in the church temporarily. But who would"ve known that this temporary wait would become a month.
Rather than calling this period of time waiting, it was more like prison!
For some reason, Bishop Jasmine did not let her go out, and only came to visit her occasionally, and also didn"t let her talk to anyone else. She just shut her off inside the side room of the church, she even had to make a report when she wanted to go to the bathroom!
She was a majestic high-level demon, and she had to live in the church every day and had to listen to the believer"s prayers, wasn"t that just torture!
It felt like she was being raised, although she wasn"t too discontent with that, but she shouldered an important mission, and couldn"t just waste away here!
She had wanted to run away from this d.a.m.ned place several times, but she couldn"t do it in the end.
On one hand, she had to wait here for Snow and hand over Lin Xiao"s half of the golden coin to her. On the other hand, Jasmine was also very nice to her, and she didn"t want to part with her.
Speaking of Jasmine, there was something she could never understand.
As the Bishop of Sheryl City, she probably already saw through her ident.i.ty as a high-level demon, even if she never said so, Elona knew.
After all, Jasmine already saw her cat ears a long time ago, it was impossible she had no suspicions.
But the question was, all the clergy of the Holy Light Church were hostile to demons, so Elona didn"t understand why Bishop Jasmine didn"t immediately kill her after noticing her true ident.i.ty. On the contrary, she took care of her, and even chatted with her from time to time and practically treated her as her own child.
Why was Jasmine so nice to her?
Elona couldn"t understand, so for the time being she treated her as a different “Good Bishop”.
“Snow, she… wait, what"s with that racket outside?” Just as Jasmine was planning to use some excuses to muddle through, she suddenly heard a disturbance coming from outside the church.
“Elona, wait for me, I"ll be back in a bit, so don"t run around.”
“Oh.”
Jasmine quietly warned her, and walked out of the church under Elona"s gaze. But she quickly noticed that she couldn"t even walk out, because the main entrance was blocked by a crowd of people.
“Her holiness! You"re finally back!”
“Were you successful in meeting the Pope? Her holiness, why did you take so long?”
“Her holiness!”
A group of believers and nuns crowded around a blue-haired young girl and pa.s.sionately called out. Although they wanted to get closer, they were afraid of being too impudent, so they kept some distance and wandered around the little girl.
Jasmine was also familiar with that little girl.
“Snow? You"re finally back!” She gently shouted her name.
A name practically forgotten by everyone.
“Sister Jasmine? Hehe, long time no see.” The little girl picked out her voice within the crowd, then turned around and greeted her with a smile.
It"s just that, this little girl had her eyes closed the whole time. When she was walking, there was a nun leading her by the hand.
That"s right, this blind little girl was Sheryl City"s Saint, her name, Snow.
