Earlier the next morning, a man came to Ardis, who was preparing to leave.
"It's been a long time. Lorna, Ardis."
Aldis is the only one who knows how to follow a foodie's partner.
I understood who the person was without ascertaining who he was and spoke his name reflectively.
Salte.
Sault was among the refugees.
Lorna talks as if she were Salte and doesn't have to hide her identity.
The night wind passed the Ardis from the side.
Sorte, who had completely disappeared as a child and had become an adult woman, responded to Rona's words as she restrained her cherry blossom-colored hair and corrected the disturbances.
"Yes, we have been working together with Mr. Minerva on the occasion.... until we have a chase from the Empire."
Solte lowers his head to the Ardis after only putting Minerva in danger and puts his conscience to blame.
"I would also like to thank you for saving Mr. Minerva."
"I don't want Salte to thank me."
Even though it was almost cold in the first place, Ardis is now being chased by heretics who were certified by the church.
From the Salte, which belongs to the church on the following side, it will be problematic even to have a conversation like this in front of the building.
"Does the presence of Salte mean that there are other church officials?
Ask what Aldis was worried about.
"No, the people in the church are falling apart... There are only two other young monks in this group."
"I see....."
He answered with few words, drawing on Salte's feelings, but Ardis was relieved.
At least now you don't have to worry about rubbing things with a lot of church officials.
Originally, Salte would not change his attitude in front of Aldis. As a church official, he was a relatively good opponent, and the remaining two young monks would be sufficiently contained by Elmer.
"So what about Salte? You're going north with us, aren't you?
"That's right... I don't have a choice."
The sorrow falls to the pale red eyes.
Say, Salte.
"Yes, what is it?
"I don't know much about you, so I'll tell Salte right now."
Aldis has no personal aversion to Salte and no reason to rule it out.
But if Sorte persists in his present faith, there is also the possibility of a slow collision with Ardis.
For me, the church is an enemy.
"... yes"
Salte has a face that looks painful.
I can't believe in the goddess.
……
"But it's the church and the goddess that I don't approve of."
"... what does that mean?
Without answering Sorte's questions, Ardis prioritizes what she wants to say.
"There is a priest who believes in the goddess in the village where I live now, and a small church stands. However, no official priest has yet been sent to Takumi Village, where the upcoming refugees will settle. That's why I'm sending a priest from my village to settle down."
"Is that... maybe an unofficial church headquarters accreditation?
"I didn't know about the Church Headquarters accreditation. But at least Elmer is a priest who believes in the goddess and seeks to keep her teachings."
"... so what do you want me to do?
"The goddess Elmer believes in is different from the goddess the church believes in today. There is no stigmatization of twins, nor is there any compulsion to worship oneself, nor is there arrogance that impeaches incompatible others as heretics. If you can accept it, if you can't accept it... I won't stop you, so go wherever you want."
"If you like it in this situation, it's too much...."
Thought of the two young monks, Salte clouded their faces.
"Sorry, I'm not a saint, either. It was the church that made me my enemy first. There is no personal reason to help Minervas, but there is no such thing as an asylum seeker or a reason to help the faithful of the church. If you're just sticking to doctrine, it's honest that you can do what I don't know."
"... may I meet Father Elmer and talk to him before I come to a conclusion?
"Oh, that's fine. But don't tell the other two yet."
"I see...."
"Don't worry about it. It's not like Elmer believes in evil gods. Rather, the goddess who is widely believed in the world today is more..."
"Rona, stop. That's for Salte to decide."
Ardis waited for Lorna to do something extra.
Because it was obvious that if you let go of her mouth, a scolding gossip would pop out against her.
Really? Well, no.
Renewed Rona walks towards Salte.
"Anyway, I'm glad Salte is safe. We can't help ourselves out of sight or ear. I will protect Salte and Minerva until we settle down in Takumi Village."
"Thank you very much. Dear Rona,"
After a short time rejoicing at the reunion, the Ardis began to move north.
But it is also a large group of 3,000 people, and even refugees who are unfamiliar with traveling.
It was difficult to move around in one place, and it was impossible to form a neat line.
The group will grow back and forth for a long time.
It was necessary to deploy considerable force at the beginning of induction and exposition and at the end of intercepting the Empire if its pursuers came.
Eventually, the Minervas will lead the group and Rona will accompany them as a guide.
Moore and Salte were also included there.
Inevitably, the rear end prevents Aldis from chasing him from the rear by himself.
It is impossible to deal with the pursuit of the Imperial Army alone, but none of them opposed Ardis.
"Nice weather....."
Otherwise, I feel relaxed and enjoyable on a picnic.
If you lie down on the meadow and take a nap in the sun, you'll feel good.
Aldis saw a group of evacuees continue in front while yawning.
Instead of being reached by magic exploration, the head of the group is so far ahead that it no longer appears in sight.
I can afford it.
There was someone who spoke to Aldis from the side.
"I'm on alert."
Originally, Ardis was going to take over the temple alone.
However, with the group stretching forward and backward for so long, it would be problematic for Aldis to be unable to leave his position when something happens.
As a result, some aspiring people recruited from among the evacuees will serve as messengers and assistants near Aldis.
One of them, a slightly eye-catching sorceress, came to me.
"Oh, I didn't complain about anything else."
With Ardis' excuse, the sorceress corrects her mistake.
"I've seen your strength four years ago, and I hate it."
Ardis is obsessed with things that seem to know him.
Four years ago was the year of the last Empire War.
Maybe he met Ardis, who was a mercenary.
Dark grey eyes on candy hair with a slightly curly hair tip.
Aldis follows the thread of memory as she sees a face-to-face sorceress with thin lips and a small nose.
Ardis, who was thinking of a few young magicians who were in the mercenary army, talked about the time in front of her.
"Four years ago, in the war against the Empire, I was recruited as an apprentice. I was surrounded by enemies and you saved my life, but I don't remember..."
Alright, Ardis was convinced that he was one of the students who helped.
Indeed, considering the age of the female magician, it falls to my heart to say that I was a student at Mariules School rather than a mercenary at the time.
"Is it easier to say you're a Cyrillic alumni?
Now that a nostalgic name has emerged, Aldis finally searches for the information he was asleep from his memory drawer.
The four students who were there when I saved Cyril.
I remember there was a strong girl among them.
"If you say so, you look familiar... It's been four years, though.
Ardis excused herself to a former student who had become a completely adult woman, and the opponent pleaded with a little dissatisfaction.
"You've changed too much. Cyril told me, but you really don't know how old you are. I was a little jealous."
From Aldis's senses, the sorceress is still young, but she never talks about it.
Somehow Orphelia, who has been dating her for ten years, has recently begun to complain about Aldis's youth.
However, it is not Ardis' intention that the aging does not appear, nor is it Ardis' fault that Orphelia is changing with age.
For Aldis, it's nothing but a trick, but it's not something that Orphelia laughs at when she feels her skin's tension is fading.
Norris is the same in the sense that his age does not appear on his face, but when that man with good manners feels like being entangled in Orpheria, he disappears like a rabbit.
Ted felt pitiful enough to take a quick bite.
Ardis, captive of extra thought, turned her consciousness back to the sorceress in front of her.
"Could Cyril be in this group?
What bothers me is Cyril.
I hadn't noticed the presence of Salte until this morning.
Even if Cyril was in this group, it's no wonder he didn't notice.
"No, Cyril already graduated from school and returned to Lattin. Don't you think it's a terrible thing to tell people you're friends with and then jump to the next level and graduate first? Rei also dropped out because of his family situation....."
When the sorceress told Cyril that she had already left King's Landing, she began to complain.
"I'm glad I didn't get involved in this incident as a result."
While complaining, Aldis smiled at the magician who was delighted that her friend was safe.
"Well, as long as we're alive, we'll see each other again someday."
"Ah, no... you know! It's not like I want to see Cyril."
When she talked so much in a hurry, the sorceress noticed something hazy and looked ill.
"I'm sorry, but you haven't even made a name yet."
Aldis also noticed that she didn't even know the other person's name.
However, for Ardis, she is merely a Cyrillic alumni.
There was no big difference between knowing the name and not knowing it, but I don't think the person in question can do that either.
Holding Robe's hand a little, he looks like a noble lady with a clear cartesy.
"My name is Eleanor, and I am a magician from Mariules College. Just like Cyril."
Ah, welcome aboard...
"Haaah!
When Ardis tried to return the word to the sorceress named Eleanor, the women's screams echoed among the evacuees.
