A strange world

Chapter 652 Section 49. What is order?

"Your honor, Your Majesty Bishop."

The Paladin of the Church of Order greets the Archbishop standing in front of the church.

Annan nodded in imitation of Valencia and returned to the office.

It was still early, so Annan took a quill and drew a plan on a blank piece of parchment.

Click——

The carved wooden door was pushed open without a knock. Valencia's proud student became suspicious again.

"You didn't knock on the door, Reiner." Annan said with a hint of helplessness.

Is this a paladin? The knights of the Inquisition were not as sharp as he was.

Reiner seemed to be relieved: "I'm sorry, teacher..."

"Put it there."

Valencia couldn't never let people into his office.

Reiner put the work on the table and took a look at the teacher's painting - it seemed to be tracing an outline.

The Archbishop of Valencia today is the same as usual.

"Liner..."

Anan stopped Reiner when he was about to go out.

"What's the matter, teacher?"

"Give me a copy of the flowers sent by Huadu, and prepare a carriage."

Reiner acted quickly, and Annan came to Rosella's house with flowers. Like the previous two times, he successfully met Colette and invited her to go for a walk on the street.

"Do you remember Madame Soma and Dies?"

It was the same question, but it was Annan who asked it.

"Uncle Dies? What happened to him? Mrs. Soma...is she the heretic you have been arresting?"

Colette actually hid a trap.

"I just remembered the past, Dies always came to our house..."

After the words fell, Colette suddenly looked at Annan strangely.

"Did I say something wrong?"

Annan looked around vaguely, but there was no trace of the pale armor of the Church of Order.

"No, it's just that you are... a little strange today." Colette was not used to such a father.

"I just had a dream. That dream made me realize the importance of family...Lily, I won't force you anymore."

Colette seemed to be more relaxed, but she spoke less.

"Don't you like shopping?" Annan asked her.

"No...I...yes, I don't like shopping." Colette looked worried.

"Then what do you like?" Annan prepared for the next time.

"I thought you would remember... I wanted to see Swan Lake."

"Sorry, I have been focusing on work before." Annan smiled kindly, "Shall we leave now?"

"Forget it..." Colette shook off the childhood longing in her mind and refused: "You still have your own things to do, right? Go and do your business first."

"I don't……"

"I'm tired, father, please let me be quiet for a while."

Annan wanted to insist, but she called her father...

Watching Colette get on the carriage and leave, Annan, who had nothing to do, returned to the Church of Order with the idea of ​​throwing himself into a trap, but no one wanted to catch him.

The good news is, this is the longest I've gone without being caught. The bad news is that it’s really hard to guess Colette’s thoughts…

What's the problem this time?

"Archbishop of Valencia, are you watching?"

Annan looked up at the ceiling, but there was no response or whisper. He could only guess for himself that Colette's loneliness and resistance might be related to her thinking about the past...

Colette's past is gray without her father.

Annan asked Reiner to come to the office and asked him: "How long have you been following me?"

"I have been practicing swordsmanship with you since I was nine years old, my lord."

No wonder Reiner always finds problems.

"Do you know why I brought you and Colette together?"

Reiner hesitated for a while: "You want to entrust Colette to me...Teacher, you believe in prophecies too much."

Did Valencia predict the future? Yes...he will take a screenshot of January 17th to explain what he spied on...

Annan could only say: "You will understand in three years... but you will only understand 'at this time'."

Reiner had no doubts at all...this was indeed what the teacher would say.

"I tried to ease up with Colette today, but she became unhappy..." Annan told Reiner what happened, hoping that this student who had been following "him" since he was nine years old could bring some help.

It turned out that Reiner and Colette were not familiar with each other, or in other words, as a cultivated student, Reiner received more care than Colette... He could only say: "I think she is not used to it yet... she will understand Your."

"I think so." Annan raised his head, "How long will the Palace Council last?"

"We will arrive twenty minutes early if we leave now."

"Then let's go."

Annan finally had a chance to see the real princess.

Reiner followed Annan out, and when he was about to get on the carriage, he suddenly asked: "What is order?"

Annan's heart skipped a beat. This was obviously the code word between Valencia and Reiner.

"Order is us..." Annan said idealistically.

"Teacher, I'll go back and get some things." Reiner said, returning to the church.

Annan, who was already aware of what would happen next, asked the coachman to set off immediately. As a result, he was surrounded by the coming paladins as soon as he ran out of a street.

The surrounding residents were quickly cleared, and the nearest tower had already locked onto him.

"You'd better be alive in three years..." Annan stared at Reiner, planning an evil plan to take revenge on Reiner.

Without saying a word, Reiner put the forbidden magic ring on Annan and sent him to the dungeon.

Still a day with no real progress...

Annan opened his eyes and looked at Valencia sitting in the sun: "I don't understand...why Colette left suddenly at the end?"

"Perhaps you have no intention?"

"Am I not careful enough? I am careful..."

Annan suddenly realized what the Archbishop of Valencia meant.

He is indeed not attentive enough...the starting point of all actions is to complete the commission.

"Be sincere..."

Before entering January 17th for the sixth time, Annan asked him: "What is order?"

“Order is that precious thing you don’t know until you lose it.”

…

"Your honor, Your Majesty Bishop."

The Paladin of the Church of Order greets the Archbishop standing in front of the church.

"you……"

If Annan didn't know other spells, he wouldn't mind wasting a day making Reiner feel the pain.

"teacher?"

"Don't bother me, don't come to me."

Annan walked out of the church, and behind him came Reiner's shout: "Teacher, what is the order?"

Annan stopped, took a deep breath, turned around and walked to the guard next to him, grabbed the sword from his hand, raised the sword blade and slapped Reiner on the head who was caught off guard.

"This is order!"

…

In front of the archbishop's room, Annan and Valencia looked at each other.

"But it's really refreshing." Annan said shyly, "I promise, it's just this once."

"It doesn't matter to me." Valencia doesn't mind if Annan vents, as long as he doesn't hit his daughter, "The seventh time?"

Annan looked serious: "The seventh time."
