The Devil Priest and the Brave Beautiful Girl

"It's okay, so don't cry." Euses gently patted Helen's shoulder, because the pajamas were torn by him, what came from his hand was the soft touch of Helen's skin.

In this cold night, the temperature of the girl's body in his hands slowly diffused and extended to his heart. Let his movements begin to become proficient quietly. It seems that this is not the first time he comforts such a small child.

"Hmm..." Helen held back her tears. Originally, as a weapon, she shouldn't have the feeling of crying. However, when I finally saw her father again, this feeling could not be suppressed anyway. So, when she fell into her father's arms again, she cried.

This is the place she has always wanted. A place more precious and warmer than any place in the world. From opening your eyes, from seeing the world at first sight, or, from an earlier time...

Finally, it came back. This fierce feeling that started from the bottom of my heart once made her wonder what to do. But, in the end, it really was only here that could make her happy.

For her as a weapon, this is enough, she can't ask for more. Now, that's it, it's happy enough. Compared to the time when she didn't know her father's whereabouts, or even if she was still in this world, this moment is the happiest and sweetest time she has had recently.

Seeing Helen finally stopped crying, but calmed down, Juss was relieved. To be honest, he has nothing good to do with crying girls. Moreover, a child who can cry so loudly and express his feelings strongly is definitely not a bad child.

"Help me take them away, be careful." Juses pointed at Lufa and the others next to them. Although they are all outstanding warriors, they wear so little on winter nights (because the armor is exploded...), and they won't feel comfortable at all. They have to find a warm place to rest as soon as possible.

Fortunately, the nearest town is not too far from here, and it will be there soon.

"Got it!" For Helen, Ulysses' words are absolute orders. Don't say that he just asked her to move, even if he ordered her to strip their clothes together (one has already taken off) and tie them all in front of him, she would not hesitate at all.

In this way, the two left the dark place with the trio of the thirteenth squad, who had passed out in a coma, and a blue-white armor. The scarred earth finally got rid of tonight's catastrophe.

"In the future, don't mess around again, that would be wrong." Even though Helen's name is not even remembered until now, Juss naturally began to preach. He didn't notice it unconsciously, because of the limitation of language ability, the defect that he couldn't express his meaning well has disappeared.

"Helen will listen to Dad, be good. No matter what Dad wants Helen to do, do you want to eat these three people for Dad? Aya said that will allow Dad's magic to quickly recover." Helen used it very dangerously. He stared at the prey in his hands--or her father's prey.

On one of the prey, she smelled the peculiar smell of her father. According to Aya, it means that her father has "eaten" her. But then again, how do you "eat"?

"Ah, that starts with the mouth, then the breast, and finally there. In short, I usually try the taste before eating, lick it cleanly, and then prepare to enjoy it first..." Always find time Aiya, who instilled all kinds of evil knowledge in Ulysses' apostles, explained to Helen in this way.

...

The winter night on the northern continent is not generally cold, especially in December. It is said that the ice and snow goddess Shiva came out for a walk after sleeping for more than half a year. It was so cold that people didn't want to leave by the warm stove.

Because it is too cold, this month is called "December without angels" by people in the north. It means that even the angels who live in the sky can't stand the cold this month and go to rest.

It can be said that the reason why Shiva, the goddess of ice, has so many followers in the north is because of this natural climate. Here, how to resist the cold is a major event closely related to people's lives.

In this winter night, whether it is a fireplace, a stove, or even a fire on the side of the road, it will attract many people to stop and feel a little more rare warmth in this cold night.

However, this situation is at most around ten o'clock in the evening. After ten o'clock, except for a few places with dim lights, other places have already become dark. After all, unless there is an urgent matter, no one will leave their home on such a cold night.

In the almost dark town, there is only one place that stands out. Compared with the scattered magic lights in the town, the brilliance it emits even overshadowed the cold moonlight in the sky.

This is the largest hotel in the town-Crystal Castle, a super large-scale hotel and inn built here by a big man from the south.

As synonymous with luxury, the layout of this building called "Crystal Castle" embodies the charm of money from the very beginning-using the power of magic to make "Crystal Castle" these large characters occupying a large area in the dark night Flickering with different fluorescences, dozens of bright white **** of light continuously revolve around the entire southern spire-style building, dragging a beautiful light trail.

In the night, especially in this cold and dark night, this brilliant light is like a sign to guide the way, attracting all those who pass by to stop.

It takes a lot of magic crystals to maintain such a huge lighting facility, and the money it needs to spend is beyond ordinary people's imagination. However, this is what the owner of this building wants to see. Enough gorgeous and dazzling, anyone who sees it for the first time will be shocked. This is the meaning of this building.

However, this is just the appearance, don't think that this building is just a decorative decoration. Only when you truly enter its interior can you truly appreciate what it means to be noble and luxurious, which has even surpassed the level of the palaces of most royal families.

The floor is made of finely carved and polished marble, and the subtle color differences perfectly form a peculiar heraldic pattern. The jewels inlaid on the gilded stone pillars in the center of the hall and the gorgeous hanging ceiling on the ceiling plus the dazzling crystal lighting create a dreamlike atmosphere like a treasure chest.

On the walls around the hall, the light emitted by the translucent magic gemstones warmly sprinkled on the valuable oil paintings on the four walls through the polished crystal cover, dyeing the entire hall into a warm milky white.

In the fireplace on the left side of the hall against the wall, some precious fragrant woods are slowly burning, emitting a faint fragrance. This kind of wood that only grows on the bottom of the sea is the best material for making furniture, and the price is calculated per gram. When used for burning in this way, it is really burning money, although it is indeed a kind of spice.

"It's a waste... Obviously there is no one at this time!" The newly hired night watch waiter in Crystal Castle, a young man named John, looked at the precious incense wood burning in the fireplace with distressed eyes.

You know, taking a small piece out of those fragrant woods that are destined to be burned is worth the salary of his previous year of hard copying books. According to his precise calculations, the value of the incense wood that the stove burns in one minute is equivalent to his salary for ten years as a scribe.

And the gold coins consumed by the magic crystals that illuminate the small half of the town even reached a number that made his mind blank. He didn't even want to recall the expression of astonishment when he calculated that number. It was really an unbearable memory.

If you say that this is a banquet, or entertaining some big people, it doesn't matter. However, on this December night when the angels were absent, he was alone in this hall.

In other words, getting rid of the two soldiers on duty in the guard room nearby, this extremely luxurious thing is only enjoyed by him. Hey, luxury should also have a degree! This is a huge waste!

For him, who has always been diligent and thrifty, this waste makes him feel as guilty as he is not saved. Looking at the precious fragrant wood that was burned, he produced the urge to extinguish it more than once.

Sure enough, the ideas of the rich were completely incomprehensible. Resisting the urge to extinguish the burning incense wood, John forced himself to turn his eyes to the entrance of the hotel. As a waiter hired as a night watchman, it is his job to greet the guests at night.

Because he has tasted poverty, he attaches great importance to this hard-won job.

It was already past 12 o'clock in the evening. During this time period, basically only the kittens and puppies ran to the gate for warmth because of the fear of the cold, and no one came. At least, in John's memory, he has never seen a guest at this time.

However, it is clear that this time, his experience has failed. Because, at the end of the street outside the door, a white aperture is slowly moving here.

Unlike the light emitted by the Crystal Castle, the light is purer and softer. If there is any light that can be used to represent happiness and warmth, then it must be that light.

In that light, people's shadows can be vaguely seen.

At that moment, John thought he saw an angel.
