On the History of the Pope's Death

In order not to keep Lucia waiting for a long time, Arnold hastened his movements.Soon the cave was cleaned up by Arnold. He dusted off the dust on his body, turned around and saw his brother staring at the front with nothing in his eyes, as if he had been isolated from this world. Arnold intuitively didn't like to watch To such a scene, "Brother!"

Lucia was sitting on the stool with one hand propped on her head in a daze. When Arnold called her, she slipped her hand in fright, jerked her head a little, woke up instantly, looked around, and asked with some embarrassment, "Have you finished cleaning?"

Arnold's eyes flashed, and he didn't ask what Lucia was thinking just now, "Well, brother, let's make a fire."

It was only then that Lucia realized that the sky outside had already darkened, and now the light in the cave was very dim. She got up and spread most of the hay that she found before on the stone bed, and the remaining part was used to light the fire.

During this gap, Arnold had already quickly piled up the dry firewood, and by the time Lucia passed by, he had already taken out the flint and lit the dry grass.Lucia stood behind him, watching his skillful movements, and deeply felt that Arnold was really good at home, and he didn't have to do anything by following him.

"Arnold, don't be so busy, come and have some food and rest." Lucia took out some dry food and water from her space ring and put them on the stone table and said to Arnold.

"Brother, this is more delicious, try it..." Arnold held a crystal cake in his hand and handed it to Lucia's lips.

Arnold, why don't you keep pretending to be blind, your eyes are better, and the caregivers have become so enthusiastic, I really can't bear it! (￣△￣;)

Looking at the delicious food that was handed to his mouth and Arnold's expectant big eyes, Lucia felt that if he really ate it, he would definitely suffer from indigestion, "Arnold, you can eat it yourself, brother can do it by himself." Taking the cake from Arnold, trying to ignore Arnold's disappointed little eyes, Lucia calmly took a bite of the crystal clear crystal cake... Well, it tastes really good.

"Brother, come and taste..."

"Oh, I'll do it myself, I'll do it myself"

"elder brother,……"

Lucia consciously took the food from Arnold, and said with a smile, "Well, I'll taste it, you eat it yourself, don't worry about me."

"Brother, I just want to remind you to drink some water." Arnold looked at his empty hands and whispered.

Lucia: -_-|||

The meal finally came to an end amidst Lucia's mild stomachache, and at night the two of them embraced each other on a stone bed covered with hay with their clothes on.

The first ray of sunlight in the morning breaks through layers of clouds and mist and shines obliquely into the cave. On the stone bed, one big and one small are hugging each other and sleeping soundly. The blonde hair and the brown hair are intertwined. Everything is quiet and beautiful...

Lucia's exquisite eyebrows frowned slightly, as if she couldn't bear the intrusion of the sun, her thick and slender eyelashes trembled like the flapping wings of a butterfly, and her pair of clear blue eyes blinked in confusion at first, and then stared blankly. It was dawn in a daze.

Looking down at the little face sleeping soundly in his arms, it must have been exhausted yesterday, that’s why Arnold, who should have woken up earlier, slept so soundly, and wanted him to sleep a little longer, Lucia carefully pulled himself out With the skirt in Arnold's hand, he gently got off the bed.

Cautiously out of the cave, Lucia walked leisurely to the side of the small lake to wash up briefly, after being washed by the cold water, she really felt refreshed.

"Brother! Brother!" Before Lucia wiped off the water on her face, she heard Arnold's anxious cry. As soon as she turned around, she saw Arnold running out with only socks on.

Arnold felt empty around him in his sleep, and stretched out his hand in a daze to touch it. There was no one around him. He opened his eyes suddenly, turned his head and looked, and sure enough, his brother was gone!I got up and took a look at the cave, but my brother was not there!Fearing that his brother would be in danger while he was asleep, he didn't even bother to put on his shoes, so Arnold ran out. When he saw the back standing by the lake, his heart was instantly at ease, as long as his brother was fine.

"Arnold, why did you run out without your shoes on?" A gentle tone with a touch of reproach came into Arnold's ears, like the sound of heaven.

"Brother, it was my mistake. I will definitely remember to wear shoes next time." After admitting his mistake with a correct attitude, Arnold frowned, pursed the corners of his mouth, and said pitifully, "However, next time brother wakes up, remember Call me, in a strange place, suddenly I can't see my brother, I will be scared."

Lucia showed a gentle smile when she heard the words, "Seeing that you are exhausted, my brother just wants you to sleep for a while."

"I don't want to sleep for a while, I want to be with my brother."

Seeing Arnold's pouty mouth, paired with a cute and handsome face, that tsundere appearance made Lucia's face bloody, the protagonist, you are so cute, my friend, does he know?Although the blood tank in his heart had been emptied, Lucia still maintained his noble and gentle image of a holy son on the face, and said with a smile, "Okay, next time my brother will definitely wake you up."

After that, the two washed together. To be precise, Lucia watched Arnold finish washing before going back to the cave together.

Next, Lucia’s daily life will be like this: get up in the morning with Arnold, wash up, and then eat some fruits picked the day before. Lu, continue to eat fruit at night, then Lucia practices, and Arnold watches Lucia practice.

In Arnold's eyes, such a happy and happy life has been going on for less than half a month, and Lucia is getting more and more anxious because he can't find the exit. After all, he sneaked out when he came out. I don't know what happened in the Holy City. The Pope They must be very worried.

At noon that day, Lucia looked at the fruit in his hand and sighed slightly. The dry food for the two of them had been eaten a few days ago. Fortunately, there were not many other things in this small valley, but there were many fruit trees, so The two people have not been starved to death until now, but no matter how delicious the fruit is, they will get tired of eating it every day, let alone it is not delicious.

Lucia quickly finished eating more than a dozen fruits, and said to Arnold who was sitting there: "Arnold, brother, go out and have a look."

"Okay, I'll go out and help you find it later." Knowing that Lucia has been anxious in the past few days, Arnold is reluctant to go out, but he will help his brother's wish come true.

"No need, brother will be back soon, you just stay at home."

Home, this word makes Arnold feel happy inexplicably, it only belongs to his and his brother's home, he grinned and nodded heavily, "Don't worry, brother, I will stay at home and wait for you." The word he said was very sweet, but it's a pity that Lucia, who was so worried about finding the exit, didn't hear it.

Lucia went out and inspected the entire valley carefully. It has been almost half a month. If there is an exit, he should have found it with his posture of digging three feet. It is really unreasonable.

Frowning slightly, Lucia walked irritably in the valley twice before returning to the entrance of the cave. Looking at the cave that he and Arnold had rearranged in the past ten days, Lucia couldn't help but have a flash of inspiration, could it be The exit is in the cave, and the valley has been searched several times, but it has not been found. The only cave left is that it has not been checked carefully because it has been living in it.

As soon as he thought of it, Lucia hurried in, and excitedly said to Arnold who was looking at him curiously: "Arnold, I think the exit might be in the cave, let's look for it together."

"Okay." Arnold looked at Lucia who was rarely so happy and responded gently.

The two carefully searched for possible mechanisms in the cave together. After about an hour, after Lucia cleared out all the hay on the stone bed, he actually found a small bump where the bed and the wall meet. .

"Arnold, come here, my brother may have found the exit." Lucia didn't act rashly, but called Arnold over first.

"Brother, is this really a mechanism?"

"You'll know if you try it." Lucia held Arnold's hand tightly, and said cautiously: "Wait a minute, no matter what happens, don't let go easily, you know?"

Arnold nodded heavily to Lucia's words.

Lucia stretched out her other hand to face the bulge and pressed down heavily, only to hear a "boom", the entire stone bed moved half a meter outward, and a stepped passage about half a meter square appeared. .

Lucia lit the torch prepared in advance, held the torch and led Arnold and walked in carefully.Less than a minute after they walked in, the stone bed behind them returned to its original shape, and now they couldn't go back even if they wanted to, so the two had no choice but to continue walking in the deep and dark corridor...

After walking for an unknown amount of time, Lucia even felt that the road ahead was completely endless, so she held Arnold's hand tightly.At this moment, I don't know if the two of them accidentally stepped on something, a big hole suddenly appeared on the road ahead, and what's even more tragic is that this hole is not an ordinary hole.

"Arnold, hold me tight."

"Brother, let go, or you will be pulled in." Arnold quickly let go of Lucia's hand when he felt the power in him grow stronger.

Seeing Arnold's hand slipping from her hand bit by bit, Lucia felt deeply powerless. After Arnold was completely pulled into the pit, looking forward, there was no big pit there, completely It's a road that couldn't be smoother!

Lucia immediately understood the force that sucked people by the cliff that day, and the big pit that sucked Arnold into it again today must have been done by the same person.The only difference is that the first time it was an indiscriminate attack, but this time it only targeted Arnold. I hope this is what Arnold called an opportunity.

Lucia suddenly remembered that in the book, Arnold was directly transported to Moya, the human empire after breaking the seal, and then went through various adventures and setbacks. In short, it is a history of the rise of the devil... No, the cliff Stop it!Let Arnold teleport away directly, why is he still swollen to continue education!How about having fun together!

I was wrong, I thought that I could avoid the tragedy by following Arnold, and at worst I could go to Moya with Arnold, and then return to the Holy City, but I forgot that there are accidents in this world~~ ~~(>_<)~~~~

I just hope that Arnold can remember his brother, and don't just send him away without leaving him. . . .
