Chapter 47
Although the result of the first attack ended in failure, Lucia did not give up at all.
At the end of the general education class Q&A with Mistry every night, Lucia would sneak out and try to find some clues again.
It's a pity, maybe the last time went there, was shocked by the grass, and when Lucia secretly followed it again, Priest Fast never showed any abnormality again.
No matter how much Lucia regretted it, she had no choice but to take some out of her tight time for Priest Fast.
As for Bishop Rajel in the Temple of Kurata, Lucia has given up on tracking... From her house to the Temple of Kurata, it would take at least two or three hours to walk there without a carriage, and it is too unrealistic to monitor... …
Once again, Lucia and Mistry had finished correcting the main points of the "Continent Territorial History", and was burying her head in recording the contents of her mistaken memory in the wrong book.
Originally, Mistry would never disturb Lucia at this time, but today is different.
Lucia found that there was a small white paw of a cat in the upper corner of his book.
"What's wrong?" Lucia looked up at Mistry, and saw the expectation on the other's cat's face.
"Miss Lucia." Mistry said cat-like, "Tomorrow is an important day, do you know what it is?"
"Tomorrow is the day of the study of magic, we can go out and let loose!" Lucia cheered.
"no."
"?" Lucia was at a loss, thinking for a moment, "The establishment day of Seranga?"
"No." Mistry denied.
"Well..." Lucia thought hard, "Is that the founding of the country of Alonpe? No, the founding of Alonpe is not tomorrow, or the anniversary of the victory of the war with the Manchus?"
Lucia guessed several times, making Mistry's cat's face flat, and he pasted Lucia's face with his paws: "Tomorrow is your birthday, Lucia."
"Ah?" Lucia didn't respond for a while.
"March 3, your birthday." Mistry emphasized, "Don't you remember?"
Because he never had a birthday, Lucia, who couldn't remember at all: "..."
"It doesn't matter if you forget it, now you know it." Mistry tilted his beard. "Today, as long as it passes twelve o'clock, the lovely and beautiful Lucia will be born!"
This was the first time in Lucia's life that she was reminded of her birthday.
Whether in Arantar or Cerancha, the number one priority for Lucia's family is to survive.
The non-essential things like birthdays hardly appear in their lives.
Unexpectedly, it was brought up by Mistry today.
Lucia looked at Mistry stupidly: "Thank you, thank you?"
Mistry happily praised Lucia for a long time, and found that she still looked stupid, and suddenly pressed Lucia's head a little strangely: "What's wrong?"
"No, nothing." Lucia was a little nervous, "Just... I didn't expect you to suddenly wish me a happy birthday."
"Of course," Mistry said. "You are my only believer."
Lucia was a little embarrassed by Mistry's seriousness. She looked around for a long time: "By the way, we are going to track Priest Fast today!"
"Forget it today." Mistry pushed Lucia with his paw, "You go to bed first."
"Why!" Lucia protested, "Since tomorrow is my birthday, of course you have to listen to me today!"
"I have a surprise for you tomorrow, you go to bed obediently." Mistry pushed Lucia onto the bed.
Although Lucia was much bigger than Mistry's cat, she couldn't stand Mistry's strength at all, and the little one struggled to be pushed onto the small bed.
"Don't worry, I want to wash up!" Lucia screamed struggling.
Mistry let go of the cat's claws, and Lucia got up with a reel, ran to the bathroom on the second floor, and quickly finished washing.
"Are you going to bed?" Anna, who had just finished sorting her old clothes, came out, a little surprised, "Going to bed so early today?"
"Yes, I have finished reviewing!" Lucia said happily, "Mummy, I think I can get the first place in the exam!"
Anna looked at Lucia happily, and just wanted to teach Lucia not to get too complacent, she thought of something and changed her mouth: "You don't have to be the first, just use your ability."
"No, I'm full of self-confidence now!" Lucia held her chest out, her whole body exuding a radiant self-confidence, "Because I'm a genius!"
Looking at Lucia like this, Anna felt a little itchy, but after all, this is her own daughter: "Don't be nervous during the exam, play well, I believe you must be a genius."
Lucia looked at Anna in surprise, and felt that the Anna in front of her had become something she didn't recognize.
She didn't let herself not be too proud? !
"No matter what your grades are, you are my child." Ana looked at Lucia's surprised appearance, and couldn't help but reflect on whether she was really demanding too much of her.
It seems that she always has a prejudice against Lucia, thinking that she is too naughty, too fond of sweet words, too easy to change positions because of others...
Anna has always found this to be an expression of firm piety.
Until she came to Serancha, after working in the tavern, Anna met more kinds of people.
Countless kinds of people make up this huge world.
There is no way of life in this world that is absolutely correct, and she cannot control Lucia with what she thinks is correct.
"Thank you Mommy." Lucia was a little helpless. She cautiously returned to her room, turned her head and glanced at Anna again.
"Go to sleep." Anna said gently.
Anna, who was always stern, looked a little old under the dim magic light.
But she is only in her thirties.
Lucia returned to her room sadly and lay on the bed.
"What's wrong?" Mistry jumped to the head of the bed and swept Lucia's face with her big tail.
"I think Mom is working hard." Lucia whispered, quickly reaching out and dragging Mistry into the quilt.
Holding the soft and warm cat, Lucia felt a little better: "I really want to grow up quickly."
"Don't worry, Lucia." Mistry comforted Lucia, "Tomorrow you will be one year older."
"It still doesn't feel fast enough." Lucia said disappointedly, "I want to make money quickly so that my parents don't work so hard."
"Yes." Mistry comforted Lucia, "Don't worry."
Lucia responded aggrievedly, hugged her Mistry pillow, closed her eyes and gradually fell asleep.
She had a dream, dreaming that when she was kidnapped for the first time, she couldn't escape, and was taken to the evil god's lair and became the saintess of the evil god.
Lucia was pushed awake when Athos came to him in a bitter dream.
Lucia opened his eyes and saw Mistry squatting beside him. He urged Lucia to get up with his claws: "Come here, Lucia."
"Huh?" Lucia was half awake, and followed Mistry to the window in a daze.
Seranga is so peaceful tonight, even the beautiful lights of the red light street are gone, only the endless stars are scattered in the sky.
"What's wrong?" Lucia was puzzled.
"Look over there." Mistry motioned for Lucia to look into the distance.
"I'm looking, is there anything there?" Lucia was puzzled.
Her voice just fell, and a large fireworks exploded in the dark night.
Yingying fireworks are like rootless flowers, blooming in the night sky, and the huge flower crown also illuminates the houses of Serancha.
After one firework, there is another.
One after another, fireworks rose to the sky, and the dark night was like the best canvas, leaving the fireworks on it for a moment of brilliance.
Lucia watched this grand and beautiful fireworks show intently, and only let out a breath when it was over.
"Pretty?" Mistry asked.
"nice!"
"That's good." Mistry squatted dignifiedly next to Lucia, "Happy birthday to you, Lucia."
"Huh??" Lucia was surprised.
"This is my first gift to you," said the gentleman Mistry. "Do you like it?"
"I like it!" Lucia happily raised Mistry and turned around several times, "I like it so much, thank you!"
"Don't worry, there are other gifts tomorrow." Mistry comforted Lucia, who was obviously about to jump up.
He originally wanted to say that he was doing the task and draw cards, but looking at Lucia's shining eyes, he really couldn't say this sentence.
"When I grow up, I will marry Mistry." Lucia hugged Mistry, "I like you so much!"
"Hmm, I've upgraded from my future boyfriend." Mistry responded.
Lucia lay on the bed with Mistry in her arms and rolled a few times excitedly: "You have to perform well, or you will be demoted."
Mistry's hairy face was rolled into the quilt, and he stretched out his claws to pull himself out of the quilt: "Lucia, it's time for you to sleep."
"I can't sleep." Lucia held her heart, lay on the bed for a while, and immediately sat up, "I won't sleep!"
Mistry: ? ? ?
"I'm going to review." Lucia sat up, went to the desk and turned on the magic lamp, picked up the textbook and started to read.
Mistry was dumbfounded by Lucia. He jumped to the desk and watched Lucia seriously flip through the wrong book. He was relieved and funny to accompany Lucia to review together.
Seeing Lucia being so diligent, Mistry was fortunate that tomorrow was a divine art class, and Lucia could be lazy and go to bed.
Otherwise, I'm afraid she will fall asleep directly in the general education class.
