Engagement?

Leaving the auditorium, Loya felt much more refreshed.

At this moment, the perfect sunrise was leaping over the horizon, dispelling a misty haze on the cobblestone streets of Florence, and the air became fresh.

“Mr. Loya, are you alright?”

The priestess, who had been waiting outside, hurried closer, her white boots making small steps,

it was clear that she was full of concern, but she was at a loss for words,

“I just heard your laughter, in the church…”

Loya smiled:

“I confided in the Virgin a little bit, and I feel better now. I guess it was a heartfelt expression.”

Although he knew that his laughter was a bit loud, so that it had reached outside the door,

he was not worried that the angelic Fluvia would intentionally eavesdrop.

“May the light of God let you put down the grudges in your heart and illuminate the way forward for you.”

Fluvia sincerely recited the prayer again, clasping her hands in prayer.

But as if she had thought of something again, she carefully asked:

“This question may be a bit offensive, but I still want to know, Mr. Loya, do you have any other plans for the future?”

“Me?”

Loya turned his face slightly, unconsciously avoiding the gentle concern in Fluvia’s eyes,

Of course, his next goal was to approach the next “old friend” who possessed the “Divine Grace Blessing.”

Traveling with them, gaining their trust, stealing the grace bestowed by God on the son of man, and finally leaving a dashing “Gana~” and walking away.

Of course, he couldn’t honestly say such a thing.

He simply brushed it off:

“I haven’t thought about it yet, we’ll see.”

“Then——!”

Fluvia took a deep breath,

The plump sins hidden under the priest’s robe, under the oblique rays of the early sun, revealed a slightly tempting outline

She plucked up her courage:

“If Mr. Loya is willing, could I borrow some of your time?”

“Huh?”

Loya paused,

“Is there something you need help with?”

Fluvia nodded vigorously, but as if she felt it was inappropriate, she quickly shook her head:

“It’s… not really, I just hope, I hope Mr. Loya can accompany me to choose some decorations…”

“Oh…”

It wasn’t a difficult thing.

Just unexpected.

Not only in everyday life, but also in previous reincarnations, Loya could always meet Fluvia.

In his impression, this priestess had always been reclusive,

going to the church during the day and resting in the monastery at night.

Like a fixed NPC, she would never spawn in other places.

Loya suddenly had some rare novelty:

“Accompanying you to shop at the market is a piece of cake. Of course I’m happy to fulfill a lady’s request.”

“No, I’m not a lady…”

Fluvia’s face was flushed, and even if she lowered her head so that people wouldn’t see it, the heat that reached the tips of her ears still couldn’t hide her shyness.

“My, sorry, Miss Fluvia, I was being presumptuous.”

“No, no, no, Mr. Loya, there’s no need to apologize, that’s not what I meant.

I just think that being able to walk with you, Mr. Loya, who is so devout and yearns for the holy light more than anyone else, is very, very happy!”

Probably because he always saw Fluvia being serious and meticulous,

especially with her holy appearance in her priest’s robe and that angelic face, it was impossible for him to have other thoughts.

So when Loya saw her delicate red face, he realized at this moment, “Oh, so she’s a girl too.”

“Then, Miss Fluvia, have you decided where you want to go?”

“No, no.”

Loya saw Fluvia shake her head as expected.

It was no wonder, even though Florence’s market street was not far from the church, she had hardly ever shopped there properly.

She didn’t understand, so she wanted someone to accompany her.

Like a shopping guide?

Loya put on a gentle and polite smile, the kind he only had when facing flowers that needed to be cared for:

“That’s perfect, I know a few good places, if you don’t mind my taste.”

“How could I! I asked Mr. Loya for help, I should be the one saying thank you for being willing to accompany me!”

Fluvia’s eyes were full of sincerity, even more sincere than when she prayed.

Her hands were clasped tightly in front of her chest, and the flat, pure white cassock revealed the deep marks of the gully and the raised roundness under her stroking.

In an atmosphere of mutual politeness, the two left the church.

From the conversations along the way, he learned that today was Fluvia’s priest’s day off.

She had gotten up early, intending to go to the market street after finishing her daily prayers.

She happened to run into Loya.

“Speaking of which, how did Miss Fluvia think of adding new decorations?”

Loya also glanced at Fluvia again.

The girl’s blue and white priest’s robe never changed, but it was precisely the monotonous and uncharacteristic wide robe that instead set off her purity and flawless, and refined beauty.

However, Fluvia didn’t answer for a moment, but instead looked at Loya in confusion:

“Huh…”

After reacting a little, she realized that there was some misunderstanding:

“Ah, sorry, I didn’t explain clearly, it’s “decoration”, not “jewelry”, Mr. Loya.”

“Decorating the church?”

“Yes, yes.”

Fluvia nodded solemnly, raising one finger, as if bubbles would pop out of her fingertip to show her ideal composition,

“The outside of the church needs to be decorated with pure white roses, the red carpet also needs to be lengthened, and the inside of the church also needs to be arranged to be more grand.”

“Doesn’t sound like celebrating a festival.”

“Well, it’s holding an engagement ceremony. The Igniwel family entrusted us, hoping that God can witness this marriage for the new couple and bestow blessings.”

“Igniwel——Holy Sword?”

Hearing the family name, Loya’s mind reflexively conjured up an extremely familiar figure.

A woman in silver armor, holding the blazing sun, and heroic.

She was respected and loved by the people and given the title of “Knight King,”

not only in Florence, but the entire Lexis kingdom was proud of her, and the neighboring countries were frightened

——Mogowana Igniwel.

She was also one of the people Loya was most familiar with in this world.

Like Kalandria, Mogowana was also born with the “Divine Grace Blessing,” and her power was ridiculously strong.

In other words, the talent she possessed that was related to the Holy Sword was one of Loya’s goals.

However, she was getting engaged too?

It wasn’t that he was surprised that nobles also chose dates to get married in groups, but in the previous reincarnations, Loya only remembered that this woman was too inflated in value (in every sense), and didn’t recognize anyone weaker than her as a partner, so that she was a virgin from birth to the end of the world.

Loya found it hard to imagine that if the Knight King got married, how strong would the man who took down the Knight King be?

“Then who is Mogowana——oh, no, who is the Knight King getting engaged to?”

“Huh? Mr. Loya, how do you… think it’s that Knight King?”

Fluvia turned her head in surprise.

However, after tilting her cute baby face slightly, the understanding priestess smiled again relievedly,

“Ah, it’s not hard to understand, after all, the light on that person is too dazzling.

As long as you mention the “Holy Sword Family”, it’s inevitable to think of Mogowana-sensei first.

But in reality, it’s not her who’s getting engaged, but her half-brother, Mosoren Igniwel.”
