"Paracelsus has joined the Mineral Division, and if you want to build a ship, I can also send someone to assist you if you return to the family." "If El-Melloi wants to abolish the Law and Politics Department, you probably have a lot of work to do." Hearing this, the blond monarch spun his glass. The flame of the candle hanging in the corner of the shipyard overlapped with the velvet color of the wine, as if gradually melting. The pride of the winemaker could be seen in every drop of wine. She couldn't help but recall the blurry face in the portrait that had been passed down. She sighed and said deeply: "Please consider this." "It should be enough if Theraplasus joins." "Because you are from El-Melloi, please." The monarch girl said what was a matter of course. At this moment, Bawan Xi, who had returned a long time ago and was hiding in front of a door of the shipyard and couldn't help eavesdropping on the conversation, hurriedly wanted to hide. She first left the door. In fact, she wanted to hide in the dark, but the breath coming straight towards her did not allow her to do so because she was extremely panicked.
A second later, Bawan Xi saw a bright blonde girl walking out from behind the door, and at the same time, she also glanced at the fairy girl. "Well, although it is a fairy, it is also a product with good specifications. Not bad, it is acceptable." After leaving these words, the blonde girl waved her hand, turned and left. Her back was soon swallowed up by the heavy rain, and even the fairy girl's own eyes could not distinguish her. “.......Eh....” Bawan Xi realized that his identity had been exposed, and looked at the back of the monarch who left cheerfully, somewhat at a loss. Then, only one sentence came through. "No, A, Fa..." Being a fairy, Bawanshi did not miss the quiet whispers, but she could not understand the meaning of the words. The departed Lord of El-Melloi uses projection magic to produce a parchment map in the rain that appears to depict London at an angle. In that composition that is neither classical nor modern, underground in London, there are the remains of three giant beasts that wanted to devour the entire planet long ago. What does this mean? But are humans...all so friendly to fairies? Leaving her confusion in her heart, the fairy girl trotted into the shipyard holding the envelope in her hand, wanting to see Favia as soon as possible. "I am back." Bawan Xi adjusted her disordered breathing and gently approached Favia. "You didn't get wet from the rain, did you?" The silver-haired boy said as he fixed his eyes on her. "No, no, even though it's raining hard, I have the umbrella you gave me, Favia, so it's totally fine. Look, my clothes are all dry." As Bawan Shi spoke, he turned around in front of Favia to show that he was not wet by the rain, and then handed the letter in his hand to Favia. "Here, this is a letter from the man called Da Vinci."
The girl walked behind him and was silent for a moment. A slightly cool breeze blew past, and then she asked casually: "Favia, are you and her...also friends?" "......Her? The one from El-Melloi?" "Yeah, that's the one just now." "I can count the number of conversations I've had with her on one hand. We're not friends, but just acquaintances." Favia said frankly, this was the truth, to be honest he didn't even know when he was considered by the monarch to be the lost bloodline of El Melloi. Even though he had served as the leader of the Mineral Department, that was not a title that was forced upon him by Gem Master. At that time, he himself had not yet been to the Clock Tower to meet the people of El-Melloi. "oh, I understand now!" Bawan Xi's tone of answer exuded joy, and even the corners of his mouth could not help but grin, and then he hugged Favia from behind. Frankly speaking, she herself had not thought of hugging Favia like this, but she did it subconsciously. Of course, Bawan Xi was also worried that such an offensive behavior might make Favia angry, but when she was happy, she couldn't help herself... But the fairy girl feels okay, because up to now, Favia has never been angry with her. From another perspective, maybe Favia likes her... Perhaps it was because of the sudden word "like" that popped up in her mind, Bawan Xi's cheeks felt hot while she was holding Favia, her heartbeat quickened, and she felt strangely shy about her current behavior. Then, she placed her soft fingers on Favia's abdomen. "What does this man called Da Vinci want from you, Favia?" "Well.....he wants me to go to Rome." Just like usual, usual conversation. As usual, time flows smoothly. Such an embrace is like the hands of holy prayer, and also like hope for the future—— If I could only fulfill one wish now, it would be to live a peaceful and ordinary life forever. That’s what Bhawan Shi thought. "Rome? What's the difference between Rome and London?" "Rome... is a place I am very familiar with." "Familiar? Could it be that you are more familiar with him than I am?" “These are two different things…” The letter Leonardo da Vinci sent to Favia was very long, with some sayings like "It's been a long time since we last met, how are you doing, have you improved in your art?", "I've been waiting for you for a long time, have you ever been to Favia?", etc. But to put it simply, it’s one thing— Come to Rome, Pope Alexander VI is going to have a theological debate with Martin Luther in the city of Rome.
207: You can't beat him (4k5) Favia was surprised that Pope Alexander VI was going to have a theological debate with the religious reformer Martin Luther in Rome. Because according to reason, the other party should be tried first and then debated to label him a heretic and then excommunicate him. However, the current Pope ignored the above steps and directly excommunicated Martin. Therefore, it made no sense for Alexander VI to debate or not, because the position of the Pope represented authority no matter what, unless he was absolutely sure that he could completely defeat Martin in the debate. Although the debate has not been announced yet, perhaps Martin is worried that he will be in danger if he comes to Rome, so he is still negotiating with the church. As for why Leonardo knew this, it was probably because he had stayed in Rome for a long time. Although he was not very welcome, he still managed to find out some information by virtue of his status. That was why he invited Favia to Rome. As for Paracelsus, Leonardo probably felt that he was not interested, so he did not invite him. All in all, Favia thought about this matter and finally decided to go and take a look. After all, he still had some memories of the contemporary Pope Alexander VI, who was known as the symbol of corruption and depravity of the church during the Renaissance, the most dissolute and unscrupulous pope... His family used his power to engage in scandals, seek control of the Holy See, steal, rape, bribe, commit incest, murder, poison, etc. However, modern historians generally believe that many of the rumors were spread by the family's political rival, the God of War Pope Julius II, who was the pope after him. But to be honest, the Papal States gradually regained its strength under Alexander VI. Although his illegitimate children were as corrupt as he was, they were outstanding generals and patrons of the arts, and made some contributions to the Renaissance. However, Favia's main concern was whether Alexander VI would directly poison Martin to death. This is not groundless. Alexander VI used the opportunity of hosting a banquet to put poison in the guests' wine to poison them. This was a trick of the Pope, known as the "Borgia Poison". This was to seize the property of some cardinals, to make a fortune by selling vacant church positions, and to legally transfer the richest churches and their property of the dukes to himself... All of this was done in order to satisfy his own luxurious life and debauchery, as well as to indulge in the military expansion of the Papal States. If Martin Luther had really been poisoned by Alexander VI in Rome, it would be unknown what the outcome of this vigorous religious reform would have been. It was out of this concern that Favia decided to go and see... After all, no matter what, the Cathedral Church was founded by him. Although the current church has been rebuilt once by Augustine, he was also involved at that time and provided Augustine with the idea of "The City of God". In fact, Favia had anticipated the church's current situation, just as he had asked Augustine the same question when he met him in Northern Europe: "Do you think the world is beautiful? Do you think humans are beautiful? Gentle? Good?" People are fickle and it is impossible for them to remain unchanged forever. He knows this very well. Even though Augustine's "The City of God" defines the physical church as the "earthly city", those who will be in power in the church in the future will definitely make the church the representative of the "City of God", so the church will theoretically have the highest authority over people. This is inevitable. Human desires will always become higher and higher. Therefore, the Reformation broke out in the 16th century, and as time went on, it permanently ended the feudal theocracy of the Roman Catholic Church over the Western European world. In short, since they have decided to go to Rome, Favia will naturally take Bavan Xi with her, so that it will be more convenient to take care of her. As for the factional struggle within the Clock Tower that started with the 'abolition of the Law and Politics Department', in his opinion, to be honest, most ordinary magicians agree with it. After all, the Law and Politics Department is really more versatile than the one in charge of logistics. "Pack up and let's go to Rome." Half a month after Favia received Leonardo da Vinci's letter. It was exactly noon, and when Favia was leaning against a chair in the room, looking at the scenery outside the window and talking to the fairy girl, she naturally stood up and hugged Favia from behind, or lay on his back. "it is good!" "I'm talking to Xiaoxi——" "Ok?"
"Actually, if you think about it carefully, there's no need for you to be like this. Just nod your head." "Of course it is necessary, Favia, you really don't understand." The red-haired fairy suddenly puffed up her cheeks when she heard that. "Is this happening?" "Well, after all, I only act like this when I'm really happy." "In that case, there is nothing we can do." "I'll just say it." In an instant, Bawan Shi's puffy cheeks disappeared and were replaced by a bright smile. The midday sun shone on the two people through the window, casting long shadows, but because the two people were stuck together, there was only one shadow. Although Favia asked Bhavan See to clean up, she actually didn’t have much to pack, as long as Favia was by her side. The fairy girl is particularly sensitive to other people's magic, especially Favia's magic. It is closely related to whether Favia will feel comfortable when hugging her, whether it makes him feel bad, etc. In this sense, she will feel extremely happy every time she does this. Now that she had this feeling, Bawan Shi let go of her hand. "It feels so bad, Favia." At this moment, Bawan Xi seemed to have suddenly become a different person. He first spoke with a cheerful smile, then came to Favia and approached him step by step, looking at him with a pitiful expression. "What's a pity?" "I was thinking, I have been doing things for you, Favia, for so long, but I haven't received any reward. Although I haven't paid you back yet, I should at least give you something." After saying this, Bawan Xi placed the slender fingers of her right hand on Favia's lips, which made the next words spoken by the silver-haired boy a little unclear. "That's true. When we get to Rome, I'll have someone make you some beautiful clothes and shoes." ...Huh? Why is it different from what is written in the storybook? Shouldn't Favia say "This is impossible" at this time? How could I agree to this? What should I say next? "Ah, yeah, yes, I know... um..." The fairy girl who was brainstorming blinked her eyes. Although she didn't know what to say, she subconsciously imitated the storybook she was secretly reading and gently touched her lips with the index finger that had touched Favia's lips before. Facing such a Bawan Xi, Favia naturally knew what she was thinking, but he was able to remain unshakable. At the same time, he remembered that Bawan Xi was a vampire fairy. Would it be okay if he didn't suck blood for such a long time? "Bavan Xi, I remember you are a vampire fairy, right?" "........Um." "Yeah." Favia stared at the fairy girl's face. There was a hint of panic in her clear pupils, but she was completely unguarded and allowed him to watch.
"I'm sorry it took me so long to think of this." Favia smiled and gently opened her clothes, exposing her neck completely, as if to say to Bawan Xi, "If you want to suck my blood, just come on." "Favia you idiot, what are you doing!?" Seeing this, Bawan Shi's cheeks became hot, her heart beat faster, and she closed her eyes and shouted. "As a vampire, wouldn't you be hungry if you don't suck blood?"
