Chapter 272 271 Aquatic Nemesis

Chapter 272 271. Aquatic Nemesis

Lu Yu was conservative. The awkwardness and vague hostility he felt from Sera before were mistakenly thought to be the elder sister protecting the younger sister from being abducted by bad kids... It turned out to be "It was obviously me first" and "Why are you so skilled."

It fits Sera's style of doing things, directly showing off his sovereignty, but after self-examination, his relationship with Lulu is currently only at the level of friends and teachers.

Talking about Lulu's problem, the two naturally left the mansion and strolled to the mountainside.

Now that the cards have been revealed, Sera has no scruples: "We agreed to let Lulu be herself together. She will not become anyone's vassal or toy, but a confident and spirited magician. That is the attitude she should show as a genius. Tanya locked her beautiful flower in a greenhouse and made her fragile... What we have to do is to let her adapt to the outside world again. She could have been more dazzling."

"Lu Yu, her love for you may be more like the inertia of every choice after losing her parents. She is essentially the little girl who likes to set fires and has never grown up. The death of her parents was too much of a blow to her. In order to make herself less heartbroken, she transferred her parents' feelings to Tanya. On Nia, and then on you. Because she is afraid of being hurt, she would rather have someone she trusts take care of her life for her. This is wrong. Look at how confident she is when facing topics related to magic, and how poorly she handles her daily life... So I said, Tanya disgusts me, and I feel sick when I get close to her. She ruined Lulu's growth. She did not guide Lulu out of grief, but used this weakness to control her. "

"What Green Heart, she is just a bitch who plays with people's hearts and thinks she is smarter than anyone else...!"

The vicious words stopped abruptly, Sera took a deep breath and swallowed back the words that were about to blurt out.

So far, Sera's most emotional expression, between the lines, reveals her love for Lulu.

It is precisely because she knows how dazzling Lulu will be if she grows up in a normal environment that she feels indignant about her being trained as a doll now.

Frankly speaking, Lu Yu really likes Lulu. After such a long journey, they are very familiar with each other and regard each other as an indispensable part. Besides, Lulu is really cute.

Lu Yu once asked himself if he wanted to go further, but reason told him that it was not the right time yet.

As Sera said, Lulu's vague feelings for him might just be a continuation of the attachment born from long-term cooperation and the gratitude for grabbing the straw after being in trouble. Lu Yu wondered whether that feeling came from love or whether Lulu was continuing the thinking mode constructed by Tanya, habitually grabbing a person who treats her well and treating her as everything to herself.

"You have never expressed your love for her. Every time you show your feelings, you cover it up with a prank..."

"I also want to say that I like her loudly, but I can't do that. Otherwise, what's the difference between me and Tanya?" Sera kicked a stone away, scaring the wild cats who were very familiar with Lu Yu and waiting to be fed. "I don't want her to be my doll, and I don't want to be her Dusk City, binding her in my reincarnation. I want to see her bloom like a flower, and I want to see her walk out of the pain of the past and face everything confidently... Then, I can tell her loudly..."

"Lulu, I like you so much, spend the rest of my life with me!"

Sera was so happy when she said this, and the happiness on her face made people envious.

Sera lowered her voice with a smile on her face: "At that time, even if Lulu rejected me, I would be very happy."

After hesitating for a while, Lu Yu still asked: "Why do you like Lulu?"

Sera smiled brightly: "I want to know, but I don't plan to tell you."

"I guess you won't say it."

"I have confessed, it's your turn, Lu Yu, do you like her?"

"A little."

"Just a little?"

"How do you expect me to answer?" Lu Yu asked back, "I understand what you mean. Before Lulu makes her own choice, we should not interfere with her, just like the previous agreement to let Lulu return to normal... But what if she comes to me by herself?"

"Find a way to deal with it yourself. You have carefully examined it. Just follow your heart. Judging from your past performance, I believe you are very cautious in treating Lulu. Otherwise, do you think you will have the opportunity to be taken to the Church by me, live in my house, and be introduced to the Pope?"

Lu Yu recalled that when he was in Mostana, Sera once jokingly said that he would give him a sum of money to send him away.

Seeing how she treated Lulu by hiding her true feelings under a prank...

"Did you really want to drive me away that time with Mostana?"

Sera looked at the silver maple tree in the distance and said frankly: "How should I treat a person who suddenly appeared beside Lulu and took away all her attention, and this person might be another Tanya."

"I was thinking at the time, it would be better if you were not there... It's too much, right? But after calming down, I realized that if you were not there, Lulu might not be able to meet me. Because of you, she got rid of Tanya's shadow on this long journey. Since she needs you, no matter how much I hate you, I must take you with me... I must respect her choice. If this choice is wrong, I will solve it in my own way."

Lu Yu could only sigh at the delicate emotions of Sera's thoughts. For a person like himself who has no experience in love...ah, it's sad.

The advantage of the showdown was that Lu Yu and Sera could deal with matters related to Lulu more directly, but in saying that, Sera was still awkward in actual actions. For example...she still dragged Lu Yu out of the house.

Sera pulled Lu Yu out of bed early in the morning and muttered that it was time to pray as usual.

The sleepy-eyed Lu Yu didn't even know how he arrived at the Silver Maple Tree Main Church. The Silver Maple Tree statue was right in front of him, but he yawned hard. If there were other Theocratic people around, a blasphemous hat Probably indispensable. However, because Sera arrived late, the regular meeting between the bishop and the high priest had ended. At this moment, Sera and Lu Yu had the entire main church to themselves.

Lu Yu made sure that there was no one around, then looked at Sera who put his hand on his heart and closed his eyes with a solemn expression. He did not move around casually, but carefully looked at this silver sculpture carved from unknown jade. Maple tree statue.

As the incarnation of the God of Glory, the Silver Maple Tree was enshrined on the altar by the Theocracy, and with the slogan "Only the devout" visible, coupled with the corresponding reward mechanism, the Silver Maple Tree became an attraction for believers when viewed up close. They snatched the honor of the head.

In keeping with the cathedral's status, a silver maple statue was erected. The silver-white main body and the fine leaves each have clear texture and lifelike texture. The light spots from the colored glass on the dome hit the leaves. The delicate brilliance made the dead silver maple tree statue come alive in an instant. Lu Yu seemed to see it. The branches are trembling and the leaves are dancing in the wind.

"What a wonderful workmanship." Lu Yu couldn't help but sigh.

It is unknown how much effort the craftsmen spent on such a huge statue.

Sera, who had entered the role of God's Choice, slowly opened her eyes. After finishing her prayer, she walked straight to the desk under the statue. While Lu Yu was still praising the craftsman's craftsmanship, a bright red fruit streaked in the air. It formed an arc and fell into his arms.

Lu Yu subconsciously stretched out his hand to catch it, not recognizing what kind of fruit it was. He suddenly thought of something and slowly raised his head.

Sera was picking at the offerings dedicated to the God of Glory on several desks, feeling a bit like choosing dishes at a market.

"You must be hungry because you were pulled over by me as soon as you got up. Here, go on!"

A white and fat thing flew over, and Lu Yu caught it blankly. It was very soft and bouncy, resembling a steamed bun, but he could smell a sweet aroma, which seemed to be pastry.

Sera was like a guest entering a cafeteria. She found a silver plate somewhere, kept putting offerings into it, and ate it as if no one else was watching...it was obvious that this was her breakfast.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Sierra asked.

"Is this appropriate..."

"Where do you think these fresh offerings will go when the time comes?"

"Throw it away?"

"Correct, even if the food offered to God is rotten, it will not be eaten by anyone... I looked through the teachings of Glory, and I didn't see any regulations saying that God's chosen ones cannot eat the offerings, so it makes sense for me, the incarnation of Glory, to eat the offerings. Regardless. Whether it is from the perspective of cherishing food or understanding it from the perspective of doctrine, my approach is impeccable. Now that the God of Glory comes out, I can explain it clearly. "

Lu Yu took a bite of the cake and said, "You are really not afraid of someone suddenly barging in and exposing your appearance to the public."

"See the little bell over there that looks like a clothes rack, so I put a praying sign at the gate. If anyone wants to come in, they have to ring the bell."

"You worked so hard to eat the offerings... Does this sneaky feeling excite you?"

As soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, the little bell shook gently and made a crisp sound.

Sera, who was holding the silver plate, was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly put the offerings on the plate back to their original positions and wiped her mouth.

"Tell me, are there any flaws near the mouth?"

After Lu Yu completed the inspection, Sierra touched the mechanism lightly, indicating that people outside could enter.

A nun walked up to Sera, glanced at Lu Yu who was praying devoutly, leaned down and whispered something in Sera's ear.

"I understand, please invite them in."

While the nun was leaving, Sera took a few more bites: "Eat quickly, two people are here. I don't know when they will leave."

"Who?" Lu Yu asked while eating, and suddenly found that... he was completely led astray by Sera.

"Has Lulu told you about Solon's six pillars of empire?"

"Never heard of it at all."

"Infestation Spirit, you must know that the four major human kingdoms of Mera were built on the devastated ruins after the invasion of Infection Spirit. The six pillars of the Solon Empire were the six who made the greatest contribution to the fight against the Infestation Spirit. Heroes, so they are also called the six pillars of the empire by the people of Solon. Because the war was too tragic, these six people founded the country in Solon. Afterwards, they died one after another, and their descendants inherited this honor. However, as the times changed, their achievements were no longer publicized by the Solon royal family, and the families of the Six Pillars all left the Royal City of Rodmir due to rewards and enfeoffments. They were stationed on the relatively remote border of the empire at that time, and the territory would not change until it was determined that they were no longer a threat. "

"The Six Pillars of the Empire are no longer what they used to be. The descendants are either wallowing in the glory of the past and unable to extricate themselves, or they have become brutal lords who torture the people of their territories. Only two of their younger generations are more like normal people."

Roye Fedina and Charem Chien, the two normal people Serra said walked in.

The brown-haired Royer wearing silver soft armor was exactly as Sera described. He exuded a bookish air. It was impossible to imagine that he was a crystal-level warrior comparable to the sixth level. Lu Yu could not feel the heroic spirit, and Maybe it's because of his restrained aura as a warrior?

Shalem, who was held by Roye and had her eyes closed tightly, looked like a blind person. Her light green hair was something Lu Yu had only seen on foreign races like elves.

Seeing Lu Yu present, Roye was obviously stunned for a moment. When Sera finished the introduction, Roye's eyes lit up.

"I have heard the rumors about Lord Glutton..."

Lu Yu wanted to correct you seriously, Mr. Glutton, but since everyone was unfamiliar with him, he could only nod with a smile.

Sera looked at Sharem's hair with interest: "Last time I came here, Ms. Sharem's hair seemed to be black?"

"We saw the newly arrived dye in the royal city of Sligo. She looked at it for a long time, so I took her to dye it... It seems that Serah's Chosen also changed her hair color. The silver white is to match the silver maple. Are the trees aligned?”

Lu Yu could tell that hair dyeing was a very fashionable item for nobles, and they could even use this to get in touch with each other, and they started to communicate naturally.

"Are you here to pray this time, or do you hope to receive revelation?" Sierra asked.

Royer thought for a moment: "Yes, can you help me take care of Charem?"

After Sera held Sharem's hand, Roye began to kneel down and worship the silver maple tree statue devoutly.

Perhaps because she felt something, Xialem slowly opened her eyes. With sleepy eyes, she looked at Sera next to her, and woke up from her daze: "Hello Sera, God's Choice...haha..."

Xialem's eyes moved to Lu Yu. After a long time, she asked blankly: "Who are you?"

"Lu Yu."

"Your Excellency Gluttony!" Sharem's lazy voice suddenly rose much higher. She was surprised to realize that Roye was praying. She immediately lowered her voice and asked excitedly and suspiciously, "Have you really eaten a sea monster alive?"

The version was upgraded faster than Lu Yu imagined. Eating children was no longer the most popular rumor among gluttons. It turned out that eating sea monsters was.

"Miss Sharem, there may be some misunderstanding..."

"Is it a misunderstanding... But I heard from the fishermen at the port that you are the nemesis of aquatic products. Eating raw aquatic animals is commonplace..."
