St. Servant.
In the morning, the sun was bright and cloudless.
Cardinal Monn got up early.
He stretched against the sun.
He felt refreshed.
It had been three days since the werewolf retreated.
Today was also the time he clocked in every week.
It made Cardinal Monn feel incredibly refreshed today.
“Cardinal Monn, it's time for breakfast.”
Saintess Ace's voice could be heard from inside the house.
When Cardinal Monn heard this, he returned to the house from the courtyard.
To not let Ace eat for free, Cardinal Monn could not help but hand over the task of was.h.i.+ng the dishes to her. He even threw the cooking job to Ace.
Cardinal Monn felt that he had done a great deed listening to Ace's cheerful singing in the kitchen.
Look at how happy Ace was when she cooked.
As for the eldest Princess, Sheryl, she stayed in Cardinal Monn for two days.
Then she had to go back to the king's City and report back to the past.
As for Ace, she could go back whenever she wanted.
A Saintess? It was customary to have some privileges.
Just as Cardinal Monn was thinking about something, Ace came out with the breakfast.
Her long blonde hair covered her perfect b.u.t.t.
Her blue eyes were filled with joy.
She was wearing an ap.r.o.n that didn't match her temperament.
Under the ap.r.o.n was a casual white dress.
It made people sigh.
Good-looking people looked good in everything!
In her hand was a big bowl of steaming porridge.
The rising steam gave her beautiful face a touch of holiness.
Bang.
Ace gently placed the bowl in front of Cardinal Monn and said expectantly, “Quick, taste it. How does it taste?”
Cardinal Monn asked doubtfully, “Aren't you going to call Alma?”
“You have a taste first.”
Ace continued.
She had specially made this to cater to Cardinal Monn's taste. Of course, she was very much looking forward to Cardinal Monn's evaluation.
Cardinal Monn was very curious about Ace's reaction, but he still ended the spoon in Ace's hand.
He gently scooped a spoonful and put it into his mouth.
Mmm, the taste of preserved egg and lean meat porridge.
Cardinal Monn's eyes lit up,
this taste reminded him of home.
He couldn't help but sigh. “It's very delicious.”
Hearing Cardinal Monn's answer, Ace's beautiful eyes instantly lit up.
The corners of her mouth curled up into a happy smile.
Her pair of tiny feet also unconsciously started to panic,
it showed the joy in her master's heart.
Ace was happy for a while, then she chirped, “You eat first, I'll Go Get Elma.”
With that, Ace hopped to Elma's room.
Cardinal Monn looked at Ace, who suddenly become excited and said strangely, “What a strange woman.”
Shaking his head, Cardinal Monn continued to taste the porridge made by Ace.
After breakfast, Cardinal Monn removed the fish from Ace's funny eyes for a while.
This time, there were more people by the lake.
The compet.i.tion also began to increase, but Cardinal Monn didn't believe in that.
Finally, it lasted for more than an hour.
Cardinal Monn successfully witnessed the harvest of others.
Looking at his fis.h.i.+ng rod that still didn't make any movement, Cardinal Monn couldn't help but doubt life.
So I don't have any talent in fis.h.i.+ng?
Coincidentally, at this moment, Cardinal Monn's premonition suddenly moved.
The floating fish instantly stood on the surface of the water, and the entire fis.h.i.+ng rod began to tremble.
When Cardinal Monn saw this, he was instantly overjoyed.
Who said he couldn't catch fis.h.!.+
There it was!
Even Ace, who had followed him, was somewhat skeptical.
In the past few days, Cardinal Monn had come almost every day.
He had to prove to her that he could catch fish.
But every time, he came back empty-handed.
And Ace had also found out that Cardinal Monn couldn't catch fish.
But this time?
Could it be that Cardinal Monn's attribute was going to be broken today?
Cardinal Monn was determined to catch the fish.
Under Cardinal Monn's power, the fis.h.i.+ng line instantly flew up.
It drew a beautiful arc in the air.
Drops of water scattered in the air, s.h.i.+ning brilliantly under the sun; however, the moment the fis.h.i.+ng hook broke out of the water.
Cardinal Monn's smile instantly froze.
Ace couldn't help but laugh out loud.
“PFFT, hahaha! !”
Ace finished laughing and patted Cardinal Monn. “You're still the same Cardinal Monn who can't catch a fis.h.!.+”
Cardinal Monn pulled the fis.h.i.+ng line closer.
A tattered shoe appeared in front of him.
He scolded with a dark face, “Who's so unethical, littering everywhere!”
Ace laughed until she was out of breath. She said to Cardinal Monn, “Give up. You might not catch a fish in this lifetime.”
Cardinal Monn's face turned even darker. He looked at Ace, who was laughing so hard that she almost lost her voice, and said, “Stop laughing. Pack up and go to work.”
Then, without waiting for Ace, he took the fis.h.i.+ng rod and headed home.
St. Servant, Holy Church.
Now, Alma's school had reopened.
There was no need to trouble sister Millie anymore.
Cardinal Monn's work these few days was free.
After solving the werewolf problem, there was almost nothing to do.
Now, Cardinal Monn's job was to accompany the Saintess.
Yes, Ace qualified guy openly used his power for personal gain.
This behavior made Cardinal Monn very shameful.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Cardinal Monn went to visit Andrew as usual.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Andrew, who looked different from before.
He had a severe expression on his face, and he was holding a secret letter in his hand.
When he saw Cardinal Monn and Ace enter, Andrew handed the secret letter to Cardinal Monn and said, “This is the news from Preston. You two take a look.”
Preston?
Cardinal Monn felt that this place name seemed familiar.
But he didn't think about it carefully.
He lowered his head and looked at the secret letter in his hand.
Ace also took the opportunity to look over.
One of the words instantly caught Cardinal Monn and Ace's eyes.
“Preston… The city defense is broken?!”
Ace's tone was filled with disbelief.
Now, there was news of great victories everywhere.
She didn't expect to hear that Preston had been broken through by werewolves today.
“Then the residents of Preston…”
Ace whispered.
For a moment, all kinds of miserable human situations filled Ace's mind.
She could not help but cover her mouth and did not dare to think about it.
Cardinal Monn also frowned.
The good mood of the whole day disappeared in an instant.
Once werewolves conquered the human town, the humans would be the food that the werewolves could replenish at any time.
The outcome was self-evident.
After Cardinal Monn and Ace finished reading, Andrew's voice sounded again, “His Holiness the Pope has sent an order. He wants the two of you to support Preston Church. Let's go today.”
For this, Cardinal Monn and Ace had no meaning.
For Cardinal Monn, he did not want the humans there to live under the tyranny of the werewolves.
And as a Saintess, she was going to save them.
At this moment, the top four of the two were in sync like never before, to save the Humans!
