Chapter 147 - Heading to San Lorenzo

n

n

n

nHe received the Pope’s order.

nThere was nothing for Monn to clean up.

n

n

nAfter all, he had space walk, which was a God-level traveling spell.

nWhen he reached San Lorenzo, he could just take what he needed.

nHe still hadn’t found a place to live in San Lorenzo yet anyway.

nAs he was a Pope, he should live in the church.

n

n

nBut Monn didn’t want to stay in the office even after work.

nBut he couldn’t spend his own money.

nHe would see if he could find a way to get some money,

nMonn thought.

n

n

nWhen he reached the gate of Saint-Servant,

nHe found that the Holy Knights were all ready.

nThey were all looking at the city gate.

nThey seemed to be looking at something.

nWhen they saw Cardinal Monn,

nThey whispered to each other for a while, then immediately stood with a straight posture.

n

n

nMonn knew at a glance that they must have been checking to see if he had come.

nHe didn’t care and walked straight over.

nWhen he was near,

nA familiar figure suddenly appeared in his eyes.

nHis expression froze.

nIt was the same Ace that he had been thinking about when he was in the Holy Cathedral.

nHe didn’t expect Ace to appear here.

nLooking at her waist-length hair,

n

n

nA trace of absent-mindedness suddenly appeared on Monn’s face.

nBut the next moment, Monn instantly regained his clarity.

nHe walked over quietly.

nHearing the footsteps, Ace turned around.

nSeeing Monn walking over, a hint of surprise flashed across her face.

nWith her hands behind her back, she thought of Monn walking over, her big sky-blue eyes blinking.

nLooking at Monn, she asked expectantly, “Why? Did you miss me?”

nHearing her words, Monn was expressionless. “No.”

nAce clicked her tongue and turned around. Because her hair was too long, some of it accidentally hit Monn’s face, and the fragrance of a young lady assaulted his nose.

nBut Monn remained expressionless.

nAce’s back was facing Monn, and she said briskly, “I don’t believe it!”

nMonn ignored her again and directly asked, “Are you the emissary sent by the Pope?”

n“Mm-hmm.”

n

n

nHearing Monn’s question, Ace nodded.

nMon En was speechless for a moment and said, “Could it be that the Saintess of the Orthodox Church is an idle position?”

nUpon hearing this, Ace’s face darkened a bit.

nAs the Saintess of the Orthodox Church, she was usually very busy!

nIf it wasn’t because of his matters, why would she have the leisure to bother with a Pope’s ascension ceremony?

nYet this new Pope did not have the slightest bit of self-awareness.

nThis could not help but make her feel a trace of anger in her heart.

nBut looking at the expression on Monn’s face,

nAce knew that no matter how much she hinted, this blockhead

nWould not have the slightest expression.

nBecause Monn was such a person.

nThere was nothing she could do.

nAfter all, she had chosen the man herself.

nWhat else could she do? Spoil him.

nAfter a simple reminiscence,

nMonn took the Holy Knights and Ace and headed towards San Lorenzo.

nBut Monn actually didn’t want to go together with the Holy Knights.

nAfter all, he and Ace could fly.

nBut it didn’t seem right to leave them behind so he had to make do with it.

nSan Lorenzo wasn’t far from Saint-Servant.

nBut they had to take around twenty thousand Holy Knights with them.

nThis meant they couldn’t enter through the city.

nBecause of their large numbers, if they walked through the city, it would cause quite a stir.

nIt would also cause the city to have more traffic problems.

nHence, they could only choose to go around the city outside of Saint-Servant.

nIt was therefore a long detour.

nBecause of these Holy Knights.

nOtherwise, just Monn and Ace would have just taken a shortcut.

nBut after thinking about it, he felt that it might not be a good idea.

nSo he didn’t do it.

nWhen he arrived near San Lorenzo,

nHe suddenly saw a forest that was glowing with green light not far away.

nHe couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows and asked Ace who was beside him, “What is that place?”

nWhen Ace heard his question, she also saw the forest that was glowing with green light.

nThinking of the records in the Orthodox Church, Ace thought for a moment.

nThen she said, “It should be the forest of elves, where the elves live.”

n“Elves?”

nMonn was a little doubtful.

nHe knew that there were traces of elves in this world.

nBut it was the first time he found something related to elves.

nThis made him a little curious.

nHe had seen many works related to elves in his previous life.

nHumans very much yearned for such a charming creature.

nEven Monn was curious as to how different the elves looked compared to humans’ imagination and depiction of them.

nThis kind of curiosity urged Monn.

nAce looked at him quietly.

nShe could see what Monn was thinking at a glance.

nShe snorted discontentedly and said, “Heh, men!”

nHearing this, Monn lowered his head to look at her and asked curiously, “What’s the matter?”

nAce crossed her arms over her chest and turned her head to the side. She deliberately avoided looking at Monn and said, “Hmph! You men are all the same. Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking!”

nMonn was stunned for a moment, then he looked at the forest that was emitting a green light.

nBut Monn did not refute anything.

nAfter all, who would not be curious about the legendary elves?

nAnyway, he really wanted to see it.

nAce did not hear Monn’s reply, so she could not help but sneak a look over.

nShe saw that Monn was still staring at the elf forest.

nShe could not help but be angry.

nRaising her foot to touch Monn in dissatisfaction, Ace warned, “I’m telling you, don’t think about the elves. They are not friendly to humans. They might even start a war between the two races!”

nAce threatened Monn.

nAlthough the elves did not like humans,

nThe elves were a kind race.

nThey would not take the initiative to start a war easily.

nEven the cunning humans that they hated often captured the elves, but they did not seem to want to start a war at all.

nThey would only send small teams to rescue and fight against the humans that came to capture the elves.

nHowever, the elves also had a mortal enemy.

nThat was the goblin race.

nThe elves hated this race to the extreme.

nThey may initiate an attack against the goblin race.

nAs for the reason, no one knew yet.

nOf course, Ace only wanted to reduce Monn’s curiosity about the elves.

nAfter all, she knew that Monn wouldn’t do anything to hurt the elves.

nShe was just dissatisfied with Monn’s curiosity about the elves.

nAfter all, he had such a beautiful girl by her side.

nYet he had to be curious about elves.
