Chapter: 43

The reason why Lumian didn't publicize this matter widely was because he didn't want to put himself in a conspicuous position. According to his observation, Beost, the administrator and territorial judge, is a person who cares about face very much. If the matter is revealed, the exchange will definitely not be Beyost's gratitude, but will most likely be hatred and hostility.

In that case, in the face of the double blow from the curate priest and the administrator, Lumian would definitely have to flee Kordu village.

He took a cautious detour to another road between several houses.

Along the way, Lumian kept using walls, doors, trees, etc. to hide his figure. When he was approaching the "exit", he suddenly heard a voice.

"Guillaume, why don't you just go to Aurora's house to catch that kid at night? It's useless to look for him to ambush him all day long. It's just a waste of our time. He's as cunning as a man in the mountains. Wild wolf." Pence Bene's familiar rough voice came to Lumian's ears, "I know Aurora is very good at fighting, but we have so many people, we can still go to the city to find helpers."

Guillaume... the priest is here too... Lumian stopped and shrank to the corner, intending to listen to the priest's answer and what arrangements he would make for his affairs.

Guillaume Benet's voice is a bit magnetic:

"You don't think that Aurora only has the ability to show it, do you?

"She probably has extraordinary powers that I don't have."

"Ah..." Ponce Bennet was obviously surprised, "She's a witch? Guillaume, why don't you go to Darliege and find someone from the court? If you can catch a real witch, the church will definitely reward you You, when the time comes, you are very likely to obtain the extraordinary power you have longed for for a long time."

"Idiot." Guillaume Bennet scolded his younger brother directly, "You don't know what's going on in the village now? People in the referee have noses like dogs, and they won't let go of any abnormalities. Then, trouble will be big. .

"Even if Auror really wants to deal with us, I don't have other options. Don't disturb the referee until the end."

So, what is the situation in the village now? Lumian attaches great importance and curiosity to this point.

Combined with some abnormal phenomena he noticed before, he suspected that something bad was brewing and developing in the village, like a turbulent undercurrent under a calm sea.

To his disappointment, Ponce Bene didn't expand on this topic, and paid more attention to another point:

"How can you deal with a witch?"

"You don't need to know." The curate Guillaume Bennet said in a deep voice, "Next, we can put aside the matter of dealing with Lumian, but we still have to act well on the surface so that no one will suspect me of revenge. Will, this will make those few outsiders associate with certain aspects and have a bad influence. What you need to do now is to tell the relevant people one by one, scare the bumpkins who may be aware of it, and prevent them from Leaked words in front of those foreigners."

"Guillaume, do you mean that those foreigners came to investigate that matter?" Ponce Bennet was obviously a little scared and worried.

Look at you, you only have muscles, but no brains. You are not as calm and calm as your brother. You are a natural leader... Lumian laughed at Ponce Bene in his heart.

Although he hated the priest very much, and felt that this guy was a stallion, he was vulgar and greedy, not like a priest at all, but in the countryside, his rough, brutal, powerful, and direct style of acting was even more convincing. In addition to status, power, wealth, clear mind, sufficient wisdom, and good eloquence, even Lumian has to admit that this guy does have some charm, and it is easy for people around him to worship him and rely on him.

Guillaume Benet sneered:

"Don't worry, as long as the strangers don't get real evidence, I'll still be the parish priest of Kordu village.

"Pons, you have to remember that you can't rule a place solely by deterrence, terror, and suppression. In that way, you will never get peace and the desired effect. Does the church want to get a ruin, a country that cannot pay taxes? Since it is impossible to kill all the adults here, then we need some friends, some followers, for which we can give them some protection.

"The church let us lead the affairs here instead of sending people from outside, just because we are locals, have relatives, friends, and followers, and can help them control this place better and not make a mess, so, As long as there is not enough evidence, the above will definitely choose to continue to believe me.

"Well, I'm going back to church."

It does sound reasonable and can confuse people, but priest, your knowledge and vision are still limited to the Daliege area... I heard Aurora say that in other places, facing some evil spirits For seriously polluted villages, the church chose to completely destroy them, turning the corresponding places into ruins. At that time, not only all adults, but even children will be killed... Lumian was almost killed by Guillaume Desmond just now. Bene "convinced", but fortunately, Aurora often told him about the horrors of the church of "Eternal Blazing Sun" and "God of Steam and Machinery".

After the priest left, Lumian changed another route and returned home smoothly.

Beside the oven, Aurora wearing a white apron is busy.

"What are you doing?" Lumian asked curiously.

It's still more than two hours before lunch.
