Chapter 408: The Priest:
"Teacher, don't you think it's a bit hot today?"
Sitting in the carriage going home, Heloise stretched out her hand and tugged on Ronald's clothes, speaking on the word 'teacher' He bit hard, with a smile on his face.
So, Ronald cooperated and got goosebumps all over his body:
"..."
"It's just the two of us, can't you just call me by my name?"
"I'm your apprentice!" This time Heloise even He put his face close to his and said, "Aren't apprentices supposed to call you teacher? Aren't you happy?" "..." "
Let
's discuss the work of the Chamber of Commerce."
Ronald wisely chose to change the subject.
In fact, from the moment she chose to act under her true identity, Heloise's character completely broke away from the identities she had played before. This girl, who was born in a spy organization, usually likes to be close to Ronald, and she always makes verbal moves.
Although it takes a lot of effort to deal with it.
But in reality, Ronald didn't hate Heloise like this.
After all, this guy still knows how to deal with things that really matter.
Just like now.
But after Ronald opened his mouth to discuss the work.
The teasing and smile on Heloise's face disappeared instantly, and turned to serious thinking about Ronald's next work.
"The White Star District is a special area of Springs. In addition to being in direct contact with the densely populated and complex port area, there is also a diplomatic station specially planned by Her Majesty the Queen at the junction of the two areas." "
Luo Nader, if you represent the Chamber of Commerce there, there will be corresponding social interactions and troubles, including etiquette requirements..." What Helois said
was the Ginkgo Business Alliance's entrustment to Ronald. In fact, to be more specific, this matter is still a follow-up mission to the original contact with the countess.
As an important person coming to Greed from abroad.
Although I rented accommodation in the Organ District, and there would be a dance every few days. But at the same time, as a diplomat, Countess Leticia still has her own exclusive residence in the diplomatic territory, and she usually spends more time there to work.
It was with this in mind that the Chamber of Commerce asked Ronald, who currently had a good relationship with the Countess, to change his workplace to the White Star District.
And speaking of this particular division.
In addition to what Heloise said just now, this urban area of Springs also has its own very unique situation.
Different from commercial areas or riverside areas.
There are currently many housing buildings using the latest technology built in the White Star District. Emerging aristocrats and some companies have set up their residences or private residences there, and there are also various auxiliary buildings with various functions.
In fact, to be more specific, the White Star District is a city within a city in Springs, like a kangaroo in mom's pocket.
You need to be active in an urban area with this special background.
It is indeed more appropriate to make some corresponding preparations in advance.
Ronald was recalling this area of the city that he rarely set foot in, and Heloise, who was also sitting in the carriage, immediately made suggestions:
"Ronald, starting from today when I go back, I will give you some advice in the next few nights. Are you going to make up some extra lessons? For some new nobles, some etiquette seems to be quite important. What do you think?"
Heloise's suggestion was reasonable, and Ronald naturally nodded in agreement;
"No problem, then please give me a try these days. You."
"..."
The two people who are both actionists certainly won't waste time.
After you go back and finish your meal, you should step your left foot first when entering the door to be more serious, the angle of your neck should not be lower than 60 degrees when eating, and you should nod slightly to the left, and you should not include "um" in your speech. Spoken words like uh'.
Heloise knew all aspects of the social life of the new nobles in detail, and taught Ronald carefully.
————
Early the next morning, Ronald and the two went separate ways.
Ronald went to the monastery to read as usual. Heloise, who did not want to stay at home, went to the White Star District to familiarize herself with the situation, and also helped Ronald make some preliminary preparations.
Came to the church district alone.
Ronald was still reading in the library as usual.
Heloise made it clear that the church's detection techniques are quite powerful.
Although she was very confident in counter-reconnaissance technology, she still made a rule not to enter the church area for at least a month from the day the spy agency in Springs was dismantled.
This can be regarded as a kind of caution and self-protection.
However, the development of things was not as calm as the previous few days.
At ten o'clock in the morning, the monastery received a rare visitor. As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the monastery, all the monks here came out to greet him, as if they were facing an inspection by the leaders.
Hearing the noise outside, Ronald was completely unmoved.
His original intention was to absorb as much knowledge as possible from the church's collection of books within a limited time. As for the exchanges between the clergy in the church, he was not very interested.
So a quarter of an hour later, the visitor to the monastery entered the library.
He sat opposite Ronald with a smile on his face.
"Hello, Mr. Ronald."
"..."
This is a kind old man with white hair and beard, wearing a black robe similar to the uniform of the church. Ronald could clearly see the golden geometric texture on the other person's clothes. His reading of church books these days supported Ronald's immediate recognition of the other person's identity.
——Catholic Priest.
This is a special office in the church that corresponds to the Holy Priest, and there is also only one in each generation.
Except for special status.
The priest needs to often travel around the areas affected by the church to confirm the operating status of the church branches in various places, as well as the management and disposal of some special items.
What concerned Ronald even more was the back of the priest in front of him.
Behind the old man's black robe, there is a long stick-shaped object wrapped in layers of black cloth. Without even mentioning what was inside, just the black cloth wrapped around the outside, Ronald could sense the very solid magic power.
Facing the old man sitting in front of him, Ronald nodded politely and responded:
"Hello, I am Ronald."
"Excuse me -?"
"Graeme, Graeme Bradford." The old man seemed I really like Ronald's attitude. After introducing himself with a gentle smile, he did not mention his special status.
On the contrary, just like a very ordinary old man.
The priest slowly took off the thing from his back, and then untied the black cloth on it bit by bit.
Finally in the untied black cloth.
The Sword of Santa Caterina appears in the old man's hand.
Holding the sword as dark as the night sky, the priest's smile remained unchanged and he spoke in a calm tone:
"Mr. Ronald, I have some questions to ask you."
