[Comprehensive] The Journey of the Protagonist

The day after the ball, everyone in Bright knew that last night the prince of Bowen, the future young king, was enchanted by a beautiful woman who seemed to be shining, and the two of them spent the first half of the night. Spinning and dancing at the ball attracted the attention of everyone present.

From the moment this lady entered the arena, she immediately deprived all the light of the ball.She walked in from the gate of the palace, and untied the silver chain outside the snow-white cloak, revealing a head of light golden soft long hair, the tail of the long hair was slightly rolled up, and fell in two parts on her plump chest.She was like a peerless pearl that could no longer hide its radiance, and when she entered the hall, she finally radiated a dazzling brilliance that could penetrate the deep sea.

The sky blue dress made of soft water silk is exquisite and light, and the skirt of different shades is dotted with fine crystal diamonds shining like stars in the sky, giving it a dazzling and elegant feeling.

She has a light body, fair face, delicate skin, and a shy and ignorant smile flowing between her watery eyes.The prince noticed her almost immediately, he walked up to her with a few long strides, put his right hand on his chest, bent slightly, and made a perfect meeting ceremony: "I don't know if I can ask you to dance? "

The beautiful girl raised the skirt, a little surprised and a little flustered, which made her as vivid as a young deer, with some ethereal beauty, and the prince couldn't help but become more careful and gentle in her movements.

This dance that covered everyone can almost make the people of Bowen talk about it with great interest for decades. According to the guests present on the way home, the unknown princess...of course it is a princess, so precious Such a dress, such a noble figure, she is definitely a foreign princess who just happened to catch up with this ball!She danced lightly, her skirt rippling like water waves, and during a wonderful turn, the prince hugged her slender waist, and her neck that was thrown back looked like an elegant swan.

But no one knew that this miraculously beautiful woman would quietly slip away from the prince before twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, just like meeting a beautiful dream. The bright moonlight and the deserted palace courtyard.

No one knew that this woman who had amazed everyone at the ball would put on her dusty old dress again, and stand silently by the hazel tree she planted by herself. Under the hazel tree was her death. Long-awaited biological mother.

"Are you in love with him?" A female voice came faintly.

"Who?" Cinderella turned around nervously and asked.

"Of course it's the Prince of Bowen who danced with you most of the night." Dorothy jumped down from the tall, dense hazel tree, and her long flaxen hair swept lightly in the air. , After she stood firm, she patted the brown robe she was wearing, and said playfully.

Cinderella has never seen such a wonderful woman, she looked at this strange woman with some surprise, and reiterated: "I'm asking you, who are you?"

The woman's words are very strange. Listening to her, she seems to be fully aware of what she has done tonight. Putting on the beautiful dress made by magic, after the stepmother and her two daughters proudly went to the king's party for After the ball held by the prince, she rode a deformed crystal carriage to a palace ball where no one would recognize her.

She jumped down from the tree, and she didn't know when she came here.Come out now, is it because she is waiting for me?

Dorothy looked at Cinderella who took a few steps back with a slight smile: "Hi, it's the first time we meet. I'm Dorothy, Witch of the Wind."

"Witch?" Cinderella raised her voice and tightened her fingers: "What is the witch looking for me?"

"Please don't be so nervous." Dorothy comforted: "Although I am a witch, that only shows the direction of my practice. I actually have no objection to fairies."

She glanced at Cinderella, who was still not relaxing, and said again: "When I set off, I made up my mind to chase the witch of the endless wind forever, and everything else in this world will only be me who will never stop. The scenery on the road, so I am not loyal to the Black King..."

Seeing Cinderella's eyes widen upon hearing that name, Dorothy said, "But I was entrusted by someone else to come to you this time."

She approached with a smile, with a sly smile: "It's your aunt's child~"

"It's him?" Cinderella was full of surprise: "Is he still alive? Is he still doing well?"

The only family she has left in this world.

"He asked me to come and give you another chance to choose." Dorothy said leisurely, "As long as you want, I can take you away now."

She stretched her hand towards Cinderella, her smile was wanton and bright, like the rising sun: "No one can stop it."

Cinderella looked dazed, with tears falling from her eyes: "I...I will cause trouble for him, those who watched me came for him, if I disappear, the black king will definitely find him! And...and...maybe I become the queen of this country, so that I can protect him in his increasingly angry hunt..."

She looked at Dorothy's outstretched hand, with longing and hope in her eyes, but in the end she still reluctantly gave up.

"Silly girl." Dorothy smiled gently, "Why do you think I would join his camp? When a great war is approaching, if someone like me who has the ability to listen to the whispers in the wind doesn't choose One side, I am afraid the consequences will be unpredictable."

"So, I choose only those who I think will win in the end." She blinked: "Don't look at me like this, but I still believe in God. After all, this wonderful world is created by He created it."

The dawn in the light blue moonlight gradually came out of the night. In the early morning, the fog was misty, the birds were chirping, and there was still a lonely star hanging in the light gray sky. The morning glow was rendered like a splash of ink. rouge.

In the twilight of the morning, Su Xuan walked into a cathedral with a wide dome, a dozen tall original stone pillars supported the dome, and the thin morning light from the rose window diffused among rows of empty wooden chairs , It also illuminates this quiet and solemn church.The round dome is covered with beautiful patterns and reliefs, telling stories in the Bible, and pictures of angels and saints can be seen everywhere on the surrounding walls.In front of the church hall, a tall cross stands in it. Under the cross, stands a priest wearing a black monastic uniform. He does not look young, with gray temples, wrinkled skin, and a little old age spots.

But his waist was straight, without any rickets that an old man should have.He closed his eyes silently and prayed devoutly and intently.

Finally, he crossed himself on his chest and said "Amen!" Then he turned around and looked at Su Xuan.

"Father Ian." Su Xuan stood up first, he still had a familiar face from the past, which made the old priest sigh a long time: "Your Highness came to me specially this time, but what's the problem? "

"You should know what happened in the Kingdom of the Night?" Su Xuan was silent for a while, and then said with a little apology: "Because of me, you who were originally a cardinal, as my The baptized person at birth, exiled from the church, came to Brant to guard the church alone..."

"It's all in the past..." said the old priest, he was indeed a sincere believer, he had a heavenly father in his heart, and he didn't care about the name outside his body.

"But between him and me, there is only one person to live. You must know that in his view, the day I exist will be the best satire of the queen on him. No one can bear this humiliation." He analyzed lightly: "Especially he is the king of an extremely powerful kingdom. His willfulness and cruelty are obvious to all."

The old priest was speechless for a moment.

"I don't want to die, Father Ian." He looked at the past stubbornly and seriously: "So I want to resist, and I need your help."

"... But now I have nothing but this church." Father Ian sighed.

"You misunderstood, Father." Su Xuan smiled faintly: "What I need is the help of the Holy See."

"This..." The old priest was a little surprised: "This...how is this possible?"

Are you whimsical?In this world, throughout history, there have been so many princes who lost their country due to various reasons, and those who were unlucky might even lose their own lives, but the Holy See has never made a move.It was a battle within a country, or even between countries. If the Holy See made an exception to participate, the worst would be boycotted by all the countries on the continent.

The Holy See in this world is far from reaching the peak like in the real world.

"It's not impossible, as long as I'm willing to pay the price." Su Xuan smiled wryly, "As long as I can survive, what is a little price?"

He looked at Father Ian seriously: "The Holy See is God's shepherd in the world. Is there any price that can move you more than a lamb?"

"If I say that after I ascend the throne of the night, the next successor must be crowned by the Pope himself before he is allowed to ascend the throne." He solemnly looked at the astonished old priest, and said word by word. That sentence: "After the self, be the king, the power, the god, and the grant!"

The old priest took a step back, almost fell to the ground in extreme panic!
