Hearing Balk Sheen’s voice, Luo Mi subconsciously pulled the maid hat down over his face to cover half of his face.
Fortunately, the maids here wore huge lace white hats and even masks, which were enough for him to cover his face.
Luo Mi quickly jumped out of the bed and ran to the window.
A beam of strong light hit his shoulders and back, and Luo Mi suddenly felt severe pain in the areas covered by the light, as if he was scalded by hot oil!
He immediately realized something: This is the divine equipment of the Church! It has a natural restraint on demons!
Balk held something like a flashlight in his hand and slowly approached: “It turned out to be a demon… Who asked you to come?”
Luo Mi was feeling unable to move, but the magic-suppressing ring on his neck gave off a slight chill, making him feel that he had barely recovered from the damage done by the holy light.
Without time to think, he pretended to be unable to move due to the holy light and curled up on the ground.
When Balk approached, Luo Mi suddenly looked up, with magic power concentrated in his eyes, and looked at Balk!
After using the charm technique, Luo Mi immediately felt the difference from before.
Balk’s mind seemed to be shrouded by an invisible wall. His charm was not completely useless, but after being blocked, it only caused a few ripples.
For Luo Mi at the moment, this little ripple was enough. He took advantage of Balk’s trance and kicked the flashlight away, then jumped out of the window with great force.
Balk stood there for less than two seconds before his eyes regained clarity.
He looked at the figure disappearing into the night, lowered his head to pick up the flashlight, carefully wiped off the dust, and narrowed his eyes slightly: “Succubus? Susan? Or…”
….
Luo Mi fled all the way back to his room and dropped the maid suit on the way, but fortunately no one found it.
He sat on the bed and examined his shoulder: it was red and swollen, but nothing more serious.
Luo Mi pulled up his clothes and thought about what happened tonight: “Why would there be any obstruction in seducing Count Sheen?”
He had had a similar feeling when he tried to seduce Bishop Mona before, but not as deep as he did now.
Could it be that Count Sheen also possessed a considerable amount of divine power? Luo Mi quickly denied this speculation, because he felt that the obstacle on Balk’s body did not come from Balk himself, but more like an external object.
Considering that Balk had a flashlight that could emit powerful holy light, Luo Mi suspected that he had other divine equipment on him.
The question was: where did Count Sheen get so many magical equipment?
Luo Mi took out the piece of paper with the address and name written on it, but unfortunately he knew nothing about the city of Losa and had no idea what this place was.
At this time, Luo Mi heard footsteps outside the door and immediately sat up straight in nervousness.
The footsteps were deliberately light, as if someone was approaching quietly, which made Luo Mi not help but wonder: Could it be Balk who came looking for him?
He crawled into the bed, opened a small gap, and watched the door, ready to shout if anything went wrong – the Silver Knights also lived in this church, and if it was really Balk, he would at least be cautious.
With a creaky sound, the door was pushed open and a person with blonde hair walked in.
Luo Mi was stunned for a moment, then lifted the quilt: “Anos?”
Anos didn’t expect Luo Mi to sit up suddenly. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled apologetically: “Did I wake you up? I tried to be as quiet as possible.”
So that’s how it was. Luo Mi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry: “No, no, I was awake anyway… What did you get?”
Anos took off his coat and hung it on the hanger, shaking his head: “I didn’t see Archbishop Ellis.”
Luo Mi was not very surprised: “He didn’t see you?”
“He’s not in the cathedral, or he’s in a place I can’t find.” Anos sat on the bed and stretched out his hand to light the holy light. “There are also some problems with the magic array of Reed Cathedral. I don’t know what he is doing.”
Luo Mi wanted to share his harvest with Anos, so he sat up straight and said excitedly: “I also went out to explore tonight…”
After Anos listened carefully, his expression gradually became solemn.
Luo Mi handed the paper to Anos: “Here is the note – where do you think Count Sheen got his magic equipment from?”
Anos took the note and put it aside without reading it: “Take off your clothes first.”
Luo Mi looked up blankly: “Ah?”
Anos’s blue eyes were filled with seriousness: “Your injury needs treatment.”
Luo Mi then realized what Anos wanted to say, and suddenly felt embarrassed: “No, it’s just a little swollen, it should be healed soon.”
Anos shook his head: “The damage caused by the holy power to the demon is lasting. Let me check it.”
Luo Mi lay down obediently and took off his shirt.
Anos dimmed the light, sat beside Luo Mi’s bed and examined him carefully.
Regardless of gender, succubi were usually petite, with slim and flexible bodies and muscles, and Luo Mi was no exception. His back was flat, and his pair of black wings made his skin look pale, making him look even thinner.
Anos subconsciously wondered if the little devil in front of him was a little malnourished, and seriously considered whether he should prepare some nutritious food for Luo Mi – but the food of devils and humans was not the same.
The shoulders and half of the back that were illuminated by the holy light were slightly red and swollen, but it was not serious, but the contrast with Luo Mi’s skin color made it look a little scary.
Just as Anos expected, the power of holy light had not completely dissipated and still remained on Luo Mi’s back. If it was not dispelled completely, the injury would be further aggravated.
Anos reached out and stroked Luo Mi’s back, and his voice slowed down: “Just bear with it.”
Luo Mi only felt Anos’s hand on his back. His body temperature was obviously higher than his own, making him feel as if a branding iron was placed on his back, causing him to tremble instinctively.
But the next second, the burning sensation that had lingered on his shoulders and back slowly subsided, and he moaned comfortably twice.
While absorbing the remaining sacred power on Luo Mi’s back, Anos said solemnly: “In the future, ask me before doing something like this, otherwise, if you are in danger, I may not be able to save you in time.”
“Uh-huh.”
“From your description, it’s a good thing I increased the Holy Light resistance of the Magic Suppression Ring, otherwise your shoulder would have been burned.”
“Hmmmm.”
Anos wanted to say a few more words, but seeing Luo Mi’s legs swaying and his tail circling around his arms, he knew that Luo Mi probably couldn’t listen to him, so he had to shut his mouth for the time being.
“Alright.”
Anos wanted to withdraw his hand, but then he found that Luo Mi’s long, thin black tail was wrapped around his arm.
Luo Mi turned around and saw that his tail was tied tightly around Anos, and he felt embarrassed: “I’ll let it go right away!”
Unfortunately, after he transmigrated into the body of this succubus, he was quite unskilled in using the tail, a part he had never used before. It was quite obedient when he was unconscious but became disobedient when he tried to control it actively, causing the tail to become tighter and tighter.
Anos smiled helplessly and scratched the tip of Luo Mi’s tail with his left hand.
Luo Mi only felt a tingling and itchy sensation like an electric current coming from the tip of his tail, going up along his tailbone, stimulating his whole body and making his tail loosen all of a sudden and wrap around his waist.
Anos straightened his sleeves and said, “It won’t be serious anymore, but it’s better to apply some medicine. I’ll ask Reinhardt to send some over.”
Luo Mi held his tail and said, “It’s not good it being so late, right?”
“It’s okay.” Anos comforted him, took out his cell phone and dialed the number.
In a few minutes, Reinhardt, who had taken off his armor, appeared outside the door with the medicine Anos wanted in his hand. When he handed it to Anos, he glanced at Luo Mi intentionally or unintentionally.
Luo Mi felt a little guilty for some reason, but he soon became confident: he was injured while helping the Vatican to gather information, it was a work-related injury!
By the time Luo Mi finished applying the medicine, the sky was already turning pale.
Anos saw that Luo Mi was beginning to feel sleepy: “You go to sleep first, I will wake you up tomorrow.”
Luo Mi tried to open his eyes wide: “You don’t want to sleep? Then I won’t sleep either.”
“It’s okay for me not to sleep.” Anos took out the Bible, “Or do you want me to explain the Bible to you?”
Luo Mi fell down: “Falling asleep!”
Anos couldn’t help curling his lips, then he dimmed the lights, sat at the desk and started flipping through the Bible.
….
The next day, when Luo Mi was woken up by Anos, it was almost noon.
He saw that Anos was dressed very formally and couldn’t help but feel a little strange: “You went out?”
“Yes. Had morning prayers with Lord Sheen.”
Luo Mi sat up straight immediately: “Wasn’t Lord Sheen suspicious since he didn’t see me this morning?”
“I told him that demons tend to go to bed late and get up late.” Anos took off his gloves. “Go wash up. I’ll take you shopping after dinner.”
Luo Mi had heard Anos say this yesterday, but he was concerned about another thing: “Why don’t we investigate that mysterious address?”
“Reinhardt has been sent.” Anos took down the cross as well. “He will come and tell us when there is a result.”
Lunch was prepared by the servants of Sheen Manor. It was basically the same as yesterday’s dinner, except that there was some chopped chicken and beef, and some fruit after the meal. Although it was simple, it tasted very good, bringing out the unique aroma of the meat without using too many cooking techniques.
According to the regulations of the Holy See, clergy were not prohibited from eating meat, but simple food preparation was more respected, which was closer to the gods and angels who walked the world in the past.
While eating, Luo Mi chatted with the maid who brought the food.
After the maid left, Luo Mi whispered to Anos, “These foods that are close to holy communion are often made in the manor.”
Anos nodded slightly and said calmly: “God will guide me. He will not misjudge every blasphemer, nor will he falsely accuse every devout believer.”
Then he pushed a pile of olive oil fried chicken towards him with a gentle expression, “Eat it all.”
Hmm? Luo Mi looked at Anos in confusion while biting his fork. Anos doesn’t like chicken?
Seeing that Anos didn’t explain, Luo Mi didn’t think much about it. He complained to the system in his heart: “Anos is actually picky about food. Finally, I feel that he is like a living person.”
[…]
….
After dinner, Anos took Luo Mi and left Sheen Manor and came to the city of Losa.
The city of Losa had a good geographical location, pleasant climate and convenient transportation, so agriculture and commerce were quite prosperous.
When Luo Mi walked on the street, he could see rose-shaped decorative patterns everywhere, and bouquets of roses of various colors blooming on the street at any time.
Anos introduced: “It is said that the wife of the previous lord of Count Sheen particularly loved roses, so that lord planted roses all over Losa City and even opened up a special rose field. Over the years, Losa City has become a veritable city of roses.”
Luo Mi noticed that the girls and even boys passing by wore fresh roses on their heads or chests as decorations and rubbed his nose: “No wonder the rose fragrance is so strong.”
Anos smiled and said, “Let’s go, there’s still some distance to go.”
Luo Mi asked curiously: “What are we going to buy?”
“I need to buy some chalk powder.” Anos said, “Chalk is a pure white stone that is transformed from the places where gods have set foot. It is the natural container and circulation material of divine power. Every divine equipment of the Holy See contains chalk.”
Luo Mi was surprised: “Your equipment is broken?”
“No, it’s just that chalk will slowly deteriorate after being used for a period of time. Especially for me, my divine power is too pure, so the frequency of replacement is higher than that of ordinary people. In order to facilitate the members of the Church to obtain chalk resources at any time, there are chambers of commerce specially established by the Church in major cities.” Anos looked up while introducing, “Here, we are.”
Luo Mi also looked up and saw the words “Sacred Chamber of Commerce” written in Chinese and English on the square doorplate.
As they were about to go in, they suddenly saw a carriage passing by them and stopping in front of the Chamber of Commerce.
The Chamber of Commerce servant stepped forward and bent down so that he could help the guest in the carriage get out.
A beautiful woman stepped out of the car gracefully.
The servant’s eyes lit up and he said respectfully, “Mrs. Durr, please.”
Luo Mi blinked: Mrs. Durr?
Wasn’t that the one who had a secret meeting with Count Sheen last night?
