Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God-Chapter 32 - 29 Unexpected Guest_1

32: Chapter 29 Unexpected Guest_1

32 -29 Unexpected Guest_1

A gust of cold wind blew outside again, and the Maiden Priestess involuntarily tightened her cloak, unaware of how long she had dozed off.

The logs in the fireplace were nearly burned out, leaving only a low glow.

If it weren’t for the sound of branches tapping against the window waking her up, she would have let the cold wind seep into her body, guaranteeing a runny nose tomorrow.

She wasn’t afraid of catching a cold or having a fever; driving away such minor illnesses was a breeze for her.

But if the High Priest found out that she had dozed off during the night shift, she was bound to get a scolding and be punished to copy prayers several times over.

As the Maiden Priestess added more wood to the fireplace, she joined her hands towards the oak outside the window and said, “Grandpa Oak…

you are generous and forgiving…

please forgive my ignorance…

for mistakenly taking your kindness for something else.

The day after tomorrow, I will definitely water you with two extra buckets and give you an extra bucket of fertilizer!”

With the flames in the fireplace rising again, the temperature in the hall gradually warmed up, and sleepiness once again reached its evil hand towards the Maiden Priestess.

The Maiden Priestess patted her cheeks and cheered herself on, saying, “Anna, hold on, you must hold on.

You can’t slack off just because the High Priest isn’t here…

You have to…

Ah…

It’s over, it’s all over…

The High Priest is definitely going to kill me this time…”

Anna, who had just sat down, suddenly jumped up from her seat like she was pricked by a needle, screaming miserably.

During her previous drowsy sleep, she had used the Prayer Scripture as a pillow, and half of it was soaked with her saliva; many of the ink marks had already spread.

“What to do…

what to do…

this is the High Priest’s favorite book…

If she finds out I peeked…

she’s definitely going to kill me…

what to do…” The Maiden Priestess was about to cry out, hastily wiping it with a handkerchief, but the more she wiped, the worse it smeared, “It’s over, it’s all over…

Anna, you idiot…

you’ve messed up again…

The High Priest is definitely going to kick me out of the church…

Mom and dad would certainly kill me…”

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Just as the Maiden Priestess was frantically spinning in circles, the heavy church doors really began to make noise.

The Maiden Priestess was startled to jump three feet high.

It couldn’t be the High Priest returning, could it?

No, no, that’s impossible.

The town the High Priest went to was struck by a plague, a troublesome one.

Without ten days to a fortnight, it’s definitely not going to be resolved.

It has to be a sick person, no doubt, someone seeking help.

“Wait…

wait…

I’ll be there right away…” The Maiden Priestess hastily closed the Prayer Scripture with a slap, straightened her appearance, and tried to display a serious and mature demeanor as best as she could.

However, paired with her baby-faced, round cheeks, this demeanor gave off an indescribable impression.

The Maiden Priestess had already opened the church door a crack, then she remembered something and slammed it shut again, saying in disarray, “Wait a little longer, just a little longer…”

Fortunately, the person outside was quick on their feet; otherwise, the heavy church door would have come into intimate contact with their forehead.

The Maiden Priestess opened the small window on the church door and peered outside while cautiously inquiring, “What…

what do you need?”

“I am an Adventurer…

I am seeking help…

I have a companion who is badly wounded…” The person outside said weakly, looking thoroughly exhausted as if they had traveled a great distance.

“So you’re an adventurer…” Upon hearing ‘adventurer’, the maiden priestess’s eyes grew even rounder, “Are you…

are you a good person?”

Would a bad person admit they are bad?

Outside the door, Gaven almost let out a laugh.

That mature, steady, experienced guy had been so innocent in his youth.

If not for the name, characteristics, and background fitting perfectly, he almost thought he had found the wrong person.

Hold it in, hold it in, you must hold it in.

The act must be complete.

Gaven responded seriously, “Your door is open.

If I were a bad person, I would have charged in long ago.”

“That’s true, haha!” The maiden priestess behind the door, embarrassed, stuck out her pink tongue, apologizing as she opened the door, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, sorry.

It’s my first time…

on night duty by myself, and I’m still not too skilled…

It will get better in the future…

Please, Adventurer, come in and warm up…

warm up…

I’ll go get you a glass of water…”

The main reason was Gaven’s clean, somewhat delicate features, which were very deadly.

According to the maiden priestess, he didn’t look like a bad person.

“No need to go to the trouble, saving lives is urgent.

My brother is still out in the icy wilderness, waiting for me to bring someone to rescue him.

If it’s not too much trouble for you, Priest, please bring your gear and come with me.

Afterwards, I will surely reward you handsomely,” Gaven said as he walked into the modest little chapel.

In the center stood a statue of Ilmater, the God of Suffering.

It was unimpressive outside, but inside it was clean and cozy, with just the right temperature, completely unreflecting of the bone-chilling cold of early spring outside.

“Wait just a moment, I will gather my equipment,” said the young priestess as she hurried to the back.

“Bring more healing potions, and it would be best to change your gear too.

It’s better to bring an extra change of clothes, after all, it is early spring.

The nights may be very cold, but by noon, the sun can be scorching hot and very intense,” Gaven followed behind the maiden priestess, suggesting advice in a convincing manner.

The expression on his face said, I’m an adventurer, I know outdoor life well, follow my lead and you won’t go wrong.

“I see, no wonder you are an Adventurer, you think of everything,” the maiden priestess nodded repeatedly, quickly pulling out a large backpack commonly used by the High Priest when going out, and started packing according to Gaven’s advice.

After some thought, the maiden priestess took a set of keys and unlocked the High Priest’s room’s potion cabinet, took a combat potion belt off the top, and strapped it around her waist, mumbling as she picked through the various potions.

“In the wilderness, you absolutely can’t just bring healing potions.

Potions for auxiliary spells are also very important.

If possible, you should bring more.

This time we suffered because we didn’t bring enough potions.

We didn’t expect that among the group of jackalweres, there’d be one empowered by demonic strength, a Purgatory Jackal Person,” Gaven said while picking a potion for treating serious wounds and gulping it down.

His face, which had been a bit pale, instantly flushed with color.

They were playacting for real, having indeed fought a bloody battle with a group of jackalweres and then traveled over ten kilometers through the night, with all their magic potions used up.

“I’m sorry…

so sorry, it’s really…

really my fault, I didn’t notice…

that Adventurer, you’re injured…

It’s truly…

truly negligent of me.

I’ll…

right now…

I’ll cast… novelbuddy.cσ๓

cast healing spells for you,” the maiden priestess apologized profusely, hands and feet in disarray as she prepared to cast the spell, her nervousness causing her to stutter once again.
