The Melancholy of the Holy Maiden

Chapter 1 Lucini of Revelation

The author has something to say: I can't help opening a hole, this is a silly and sweet story of a saint who worked hard to become a knight. OvO supporting roles have male and female running plots, focusing on saints and knights, and leaning towards fantasy~

Lucini had knelt before that statue for a long time.

The girl bathed in the morning light clasped her hands in front of her chest, her silver-white hair, as bright as a galaxy, poured down like a waterfall.The girl with her eyes closed had a compassionate expression, and her fair and delicate skin seemed to be shining slightly.Lucini was the only one in the exclusive prayer room, but her attitude never slackened.

The Country of Eternity and Glory, Itenna is a country named after the god of "Eternity and Glory", the God of Creation, Itenna.As a saint who serves the gods, praying to the statues is Lucini's daily homework.On Sundays, this time will be extended.If there is no accident, she should kneel here until noon, and now the time is only half past.

"My lord, it's time to set off."

The girl in armor bowed respectfully to Lucini.She has hair that burns like flames, and her straight hair is tied into a crisp ponytail. The girl's fiery red eyes are full of appreciation and reverence.

This is Lucini's guardian knight - Bedwell.This fiery-eyed girl knight is recognized as the head of the Guardian Knights of Her Royal Highness in the future. Even if she has not been canonized yet, she has not received such a false name-this will have to wait until the saint's 16-year-old coming-of-age ceremony. .

Lucy Ni stood up, her tender knees were numb and aching, but she couldn't see any dissatisfaction or pain for kneeling for a long time, she smiled and looked at her default knight: "Let's go Come on, Bevy dear."

Itinna is a country where politics and religion are united. The Radiance Temple has a very close relationship with the imperial royal family, and the king respects those who serve the gods very much.As the saint chosen by Itenna and the saint of the temple, Lucini has an irreplaceable status for many people and things in this country. It is the representative of the Temple of Radiance.

Like now.She needs to attend the canonization ceremony of a little sage and give her blessing.

The king valued this future sage very much. He heard that the other party had been valued by the king five years ago, when he was just 11 years old.Lucini has always wanted to really see how outstanding this little sage, who had been placed in high hopes, was.Life as a saint is really too monotonous. Someone with such a reputation should be very interesting, right?

She glanced slightly over the red-haired girl beside her, with a sincere smile on her face.Bedwell stood respectfully behind Lucini, and the two left the prayer room together.

The king's banquet is set up in the palace.At this time, there were already many guests present.As soon as Luxini entered, many people saluted her, and Luxini returned the salute one by one.Bedwell followed behind her.

As a visitor to the Glory Temple, Lucini doesn't have to wait in the hall with all the guests.Soon a maid greeted them and led them to the rear.

"Look, is that the little sage?"

"That little sage in the legend looks really extraordinary. He must be an outstanding person in the future."

"Hey, don't say that you all recognize this young boy and are willing to be ordered by him."

The sudden subtle commotion also attracted Lucini's attention.The smile on her face remained unchanged, but her pace slowed down.As a saint, she cannot lose her dignity because of a small commotion.Even if you are extremely curious in your heart, you can't be rude and turn your head to wait and see.

What's more, her guardian knight is still following her!Lucy Nicole didn't want this old-fashioned and stubborn girl to misunderstand her.

As a qualified guardian knight reserve, Bedwell was about to invite guests to speak for her master, but Lucy Ni raised her hand to stop her.

In the mirror hanging on the wall facing Lucini, the young sage was smiling and toasting her.Lucini paused slightly, lifted her skirt slightly and returned the salute, then led Bedwell directly to the room the king had prepared for her.

Lucy Ni turned away the maid, and she kept a refreshing smile on her face until the maid disappeared and there were only two people left in the room. She pointed to the seat beside her and greeted her knight: " Bei Wei, please sit here with Lu?"

The red-haired girl leaned slightly, but her feet were nailed to the spot like they were rooted: "My lord, please remain dignified outside. I have no right to sit by your side, please don't say such things again."

"But, Lu is already very dignified!" Lucy Ni turned her head, quite playfully.Indeed, all her behavior hitherto had been very ladylike, graceful, and dignified.Even when she was sitting, her back was straight, and her sitting posture was even the most demanding etiquette teacher.

Seeing that Bedwell was choked to the point of being speechless by herself, the Holy Maiden continued her efforts: "There is no one else here. You don't need to pay so much attention to etiquette with Lu, and no one will know. Come and sit down."

"Please respect yourself, Lady Saint." Bedwell's tone remained firm, "I can't."

Luxi Ni curled her lips imperceptibly, then, the corners of her mouth pulled down and her brows frowned slightly: "Oh, Bei Wei, Lu's knees are so painful and her legs are so sore, can Bei Wei rub it for Lu?"

Lucini would kneel down in front of the statue in the prayer room to pray and pray for blessings every day. Even after many years, the girl's delicate skin would still feel uncomfortable about it.The suffering suffered by the blessings of the people is not allowed to be soothed with the power bestowed by God.Therefore, this request is not the first time.And this small request can often be met on Sundays.

"Yes. At your request."

Bedwell responded to the master's request after only a brief silence.She half knelt down and gently lifted the hem of Lucini's skirt.There was a thin layer of blue shadow on the girl's knee, Bedwell didn't care about it, but put her fingers on the hollow of Lucini's knee, and kneaded slowly along her calf.

The delicate and lubricated skin is no longer unfamiliar to the touch, and the tense muscles are gradually relaxed under her movements.

Kneeling with a straight back for too long, without even the slightest slack, even with a soft cushion is still uncomfortable.In fact, when Lucini stood up and even came to the banquet venue, her legs were still sore.As a saint, Lucini couldn't easily use the power of the glow to heal herself, and could only wait for the unusually eye-catching bruises on her fair skin to dissipate on their own.

It wasn't the first time that Bedwell massaged Lucini's legs. Every time she saw the marks on Lucini's knees, she felt a little distressed, so the movements of her hands became more gentle.

The girl with scarlet hair and fiery eyes lowered her head. Naturally, she didn't notice the smiling eyes of the silver-haired girl looking at her.

Bedwell has practiced sword all the year round, so her fingers have thin calluses.Even so, the girl's hands are still soft, kneading her sore legs with warm hands, making Lucini sigh with satisfaction: "Bei Wei's craftsmanship is getting better and better, even Lu can't do without Bei Wei." It's Wei."

"My lord saint, I will always protect you." Bedwell responded sternly without hearing Lucini's subtext.

"I will always take care of Lu, right~ Lu will also take care of Bei Wei." Lucy Ni reached out and touched Bedwell's head—because of the red-haired girl's posture at this time, she did it very easily at this point.

"My lord saint, it will be very troublesome if your hair is messed up outside, please don't touch your hands." The girl's crisp voice deliberately used a serious tone.

"Lu knows." Lucy Ni withdrew her hand aggrievedly.She obviously didn't move her hands or feet, she only moved her hands!Bei Wei is good in everything, but her personality is too old-fashioned, and she is not at all like the innocent and cute little girl in the public impression.However, this kind of Bedwell is exactly the girl Lucini likes.

Taking advantage of Bedwell's inability to notice her expression, Lucini curled her lips with puffed cheeks.One day, she will definitely make Bei Wei stop saying that, and she will definitely make Bei Wei beg her to touch her head!Just like what she decided to do early on—to let the other party get along with her without respectful words and without scruples.

"My lord saint." The strength on the legs eased.

"What, what?"

"Is the minister's actions so rough that you couldn't bear it and frowned? If so, please don't hold it in your heart, please point out the minister's mistake directly."

"No, no. Bei Wei did it perfectly, and Lu felt very comfortable. Under Bei Wei's skillful hands, the exhaustion was swept away." When she was found frowning because she was worried about what to do, Lu Xini did not Immediately changing his expression, he frowned even more deeply, "Lu just... suddenly remembered that His Majesty the Pope has not appeared for a long time."

"Please don't worry, His Majesty the Pope must have just overslept."

"No...Actually, as long as she thinks that there are so many official documents waiting for her when she goes back, Lu can't help but feel depressed." Lucini didn't care at all about that His Majesty the Pope who couldn't see his head and tail. An excuse to hide his expression, he became genuinely melancholy after mentioning the pile of official documents that should have been corrected by the Pope.

"I will help you to correct it together." Bedwell has long been familiar with sharing official duties, and said seriously, "Please don't worry. Your face is not suitable for such an expression."

"... Lu understands." Lucy Ni's face was replaced with a pure and flawless smile at the right time. This smile has been with her for more than ten years. It is a noble, elegant, and sacred smile exclusively for saintesses.If possible, Lucini didn't want to face her guardian knight reserve with such an expression.

"My lord, Mrs. Bedwell, the banquet is about to begin. His Majesty the King will formally confer the little sage at the banquet. Please be sure to be present."

"Okay, thank you for your notice." Bedwell arranged the skirt for Lucini, and the silver-haired girl held the hand of the red-haired girl and stood up: "Let's go."

——to meet that little sage.
