"Are you feeling better?" Erica helped Aurora, who had just woken up, get up from the bed, then brought a glass of warm milk from the dinner plate beside her and brought it to Aurora's mouth.

Aurora looked around blankly at first, then came back to her senses and asked anxiously: "Where is Selenir?"

"She... Ruby took her to the Dragon Tomb. I heard that there are some special things there that can help heal her injuries." Erica held the cup and gave Aurora a few sips of milk, and right here

Liz and Puffy, who were hugging each other and bowing, walked in from the door of the room.

"Ah, Eve is awake." Liz dragged Aurora's suitcase and ran to the bedside, stretched her head to check the other person's condition, and then muttered: "Well...it seems like she didn't get enough sleep? She's in a bad mood.

Ah, the dark circles under my eyes are coming out..."

Puffy very politely placed the bows she dragged over and came over to briefly greet her. Then she dragged Liz and silently left the room. At this time, Aurora, who was holding a milk cup, reacted.

The room I was in was quite spacious. Although it could not be said to be gorgeous, it could not be said to be simple. In short, it was no longer the guest room of the hotel.

"This is..." Aurora asked, sitting on the bed and looking around at the scenery in the room.

"The new place Count Cerro found for us, the hotel... is not safe anyway, so we moved here first." Erica walked to the nearby large glass window, and then opened the sunshade

Plain gauze curtains reveal the scenery outside the window.

It was still almost dusk, and the originally bright sunshine at noon had become a little dimmer. In the courtyard outside the window, some gardeners and maids could still be seen busy. Although the flowers and shrubs they pruned looked like

Very good, but from the amount of various residual branches and leaves piled on the ground, it can be seen that the plants in the garden have definitely not been tidied up for a long time. After coming back to her senses, Aurora looked carefully again

Looking at the layout of the room, even though it is filled with a lot of new furniture and decorations, thick traces of dust can still be seen in the corners of some old furniture in the room.

"This is the place where the Michael family originally used to entertain guests." Erica noticed Avrola's worry and quickly explained: "Don't worry, we won't stay here for too long... As long as Serenir

We will go home as soon as his injuries recover a little."

After hearing the word "go home", Aurora became slightly excited. Although she knew exactly what Erica meant by "home", speaking of it, the lakeside villa that had just been completed less than half a year ago was indeed already there.

Unknowingly, it gave her a nostalgia for "home".

As Erica said just now, the current Aurora is indeed a little autistic due to her low mood. She doesn't like to interact too much with people she has no interest in. Of course, she hates living in each other's home, and she also hates it.

It can be said that she hates staying in the homes of some nobles. After all, the nobles in this world have many messy rules, and they even euphemistically call them "upper-class etiquette". However, in Aurora's eyes, these red tapes are just a way to satisfy herself.

It's just a show that I came up with. It's nothing more than a way to distinguish between nobles and commoners. Therefore, staying in a noble's home is not just a simple concept of "staying overnight", because as long as you stay in a noble's home, it will

You must abide by the other party's etiquette to be considered a "qualified" guest.

This sounds ridiculous but it is inevitable. Maybe Erica and Diana don't have to cooperate with such boring things, but Aurora appeared because of her identity as Algasburg.

Unavoidable obstacles. Although Argasburg used to hide from the outside world, it never completely cut off contact with the outside world. Therefore, the surname Astrad still has a certain weight in the outside world. This also caused Aurora to be an occasional

Abao diplomats must also do something, even if it is informal communication, they must not fall behind the requirements of etiquette. Of course, this is why Aprila personally hates this position.

Due to the cultural characteristics and the effective control of the mainstream nobles who are proficient in martial arts, the Principality of Michael has somewhat avoided many similar things from happening. However, this situation cannot be said to be completely eliminated. At least during this period, through contact with some Ma

Judging from the local customs and customs of Liaburg, this situation still exists in the city. For this reason, Aurora is secretly unwilling to stay in larger hotels. Because usually, most of the people in such places have aristocratic backgrounds.

It was opened by someone, and Diana also chose that inconspicuous small hotel to stay in in order to take care of Aurora's request. Even though this inconspicuous small hotel also had Michael's background, it was quite different.

Compared to other nobles, it is somewhat quieter here.

But now that she heard that this was the place provided by Adrian, Aurora felt more at ease, because with Michael's shelter, she could block many boring social requests. After all, there are people in Algasburg.

Many people have direct or indirect business dealings with Algasburg's commercial organizations. Once the surname Astrad is known to the nobles in the city, it will definitely attract a lot of unnecessary invitations.

"Will Serenir's injury... last long?" Avrola thought for a moment and then asked: "And about the monster..."

"Selannier is not sure how long it will take, but Ruby assured her that Selannier will come back intact, so you don't have to worry about her anymore. The whole thing

The cause is actually a coincidence caused by many factors. To put it inappropriately, we are just too unlucky. In short, it is definitely the result of the fault of you and me..." Erica lowered her head as she spoke.

Glancing at Aurora, I found that she didn't seem to be able to accept this reason, so she quickly explained: "I know this sounds a bit arrogant, but believe me, no one will blame you at this time, and you

Don’t blame yourself too much. This is not a suitable result for all of us. And if you are still worried, just give me a good beating. Anyway, I am the biggest responsible for this matter. I have already suffered it just now.

I’ve been punished by Diana’s electric shock, so I might as well get beaten by you again to calm down my anger.”

Aurora didn't answer, at least she continued to look up at Erica, pouted, then dove into her arms and nuzzled her.

"As for the monster..." Erica paused for a moment. Then she briefly recalled the message she had just heard from the Holy Guard Commander Yael before shaking her head and saying, "That one seems to be bigger than we imagined.

It's more serious, but it has been taken over by the Holy Guard now, so we don't need to worry about that at the moment."

"Holy Guard? Is it so serious?" Aurora put the empty cup on the bedside table uneasily and said, "Is it possible that the monster is Hertogos who has never died?"

"I don't know..." Erica shrugged and said, "Yel didn't tell me, but I guess it shouldn't be a big problem. After all, I didn't think she had any overreaction after scouting the scene. But to be honest,

Yes, she complained that the monster's teleportation spell was quite weird, and she couldn't tell where the monster had escaped, so she could only wait for Elena to come over and solve the problem."

"Elena...have all the servants of the Supreme God been alarmed?" After finishing speaking, Avrola lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed and walk around. Erica hurriedly came over and put a coat on her and helped her walk there.

The bedside position.

"She happened to go to the north for something, so she probably passed by here. I heard that Severna and the others were doing something at home, so many members of the temple were on the ground..." Erica habitually thought of the memories from Yerna

She heard some things while listening, so she couldn't help but worry about what Savina was doing again. After all, she felt that her little nest was already very good, and based on her current understanding of Savina, it would be easy to do it.

I understand that the other party is doing some big project at home or something like that.

Erica helped Aurora to sit on the chair in front of the window sill, and then Erica suddenly thought of something and asked casually: "By the way, I want to ask you something."

"What's the matter?" Aurora tilted her head and leaned on Erica's shoulder.

"What kind of place is Severna's...temple...?" Erica recalled the vague fragments in her memory. Under the influence of the mysterious dreamer, she had some things that were not her own.

Memories include many magnificent architectural complexes full of sacredness. But those fragmented fragments are obviously not clear enough, and most of them are indoor scenes. Those places are somewhat similar to the temple rooms I have visited, so it is inevitable

I have some curiosity about the concept of "temple" itself.

"The temple... um... I don't know what it is like." Aurora moved her body and lay completely in Erica's arms and said lazily: "There isn't much in the Chosen One's library.

Regarding the records of the current temple, the so-called temple in the past should refer to the part of the Supreme Temple in the mortal world. According to legend, they were some magnificent buildings brought down by Severna from the heaven. Later, more than 200 years ago, Severna

He was brought back when he left the mortal world, so there are not many records left on the earth. However, the so-called temple should not refer to a single palace building. After all, according to the records, the temple more than 200 years ago was actually a very large complex of buildings.

, like a very large city... Well, if we compare it with Mariencastle, it would be about the size of more than 100 Mariencastle."

"100 Mariencastle..." Erica quickly calculated the area of ​​Mariencastle in her mind.

According to her estimate on the map, the approximate area of ​​a Maria Castle is about 3 square kilometers. Of course, this does not include the area of ​​​​the fortress and the outer city. It is simply the approximate area of ​​​​Da Caron City. If according to

In this way, 100 Dakaron urban areas are more than 300 square kilometers. If placed on the earth, this can be regarded as a medium-sized city area. This number is definitely considered for this era of feudal society.

It is a quite large building complex, or it is not an exaggeration to call it a "super city". But if according to what Avrola said, the temple on the ground back then was just a small part of the sky, this makes Ai even more...

Rika felt extremely curious. If she had the chance, she would really like to ask Savina if she could go over and have a look to see if the so-called "heaven" was a place like "heaven".

"Heaven...is it a city in the sky?" Erica subconsciously glanced at the sky outside through the transparent glass of the window.

"Heaven is just an illusory and vague concept. It does not mean floating in the sky. According to records, it is actually another level of the world... um... how should I put it..." Aurora looked up.

Asked Erica: "Have you ever heard of the underworld?"

"Ah, I heard some concepts from Diana." After Erica finished speaking, she subconsciously looked at the ground. It was obvious that Aurora judged from her behavior that Diana had not explained it clearly to her.

"Let's put it this way, this world is not just a single space." Aphra pointed to a glass fish tank nearby and said: "Our world is like that fish tank, and you can understand the mortal world we are in.

The underworld is the space above the water, while the underworld is the space below the water surface. Life and death are the basic elements that make up the world. At the same time, there is a mirror image between the two worlds. The living is in the mortal world and the dead are in the underworld.

, the two worlds are closely related but cannot interfere with each other...at least there will be no natural interference, but these two worlds are two completely different spaces."

"Is it a space... like your magic space?" Erica asked, looking at the fish tank.

"It's different. That one is a bit troublesome to explain." Just when Aurora said this, the animal that looked like some kind of salamander under the fish tank spit out a small string of bubbles and floated to the surface.

Flora immediately said: "You can roughly think of our magic space as a bubble in the water. Although it is a relatively unique space, it is just a small bubble within the entire world space. Of course... Diana's magic

You can imagine it as an extra-large blister..."

"Oh... it's not difficult to understand..." Erica nodded compromisingly, and then she continued to look at the fish tank and asked: "Where is the heaven? Above the water... is it in the world above?"

"No, the so-called heaven is that fish tank." Aurora replied decisively: "I said before, 'heaven' is just a very illusory concept, so strictly speaking it is not the same world as the mortal world and the underworld.

level, but these two are just parts of the heaven."

"It sounds... very confusing. I can't understand it at all." Erica shook her head helplessly.

"More or less, I just heard it from hearsay. After all, the records in the Chosen Library are all information from the mortal world. I thought that no mortal person has ever been to the heaven, not even among the chosen ones in the past.

." Aurora suddenly poked Erica's chest and whispered: "By the way, I see that the goddess Severna loves you very much. Do you want to ask her if she can take you up there to take a look?

Look, take some photos or videos and bring them back for a mortal like me to admire?"

"This...isn't it okay...after all, I am a god..." Erica replied sheepishly while scratching Avrola's ribs in retaliation, because she was only wearing a thin piece of clothing.

She was wearing a shirt, so she felt a little itchy when Aurora poked her breasts. Moreover, Aurora poked her more than once, so she had to resist accordingly.

The two started playing with each other so naturally, and they didn't even notice that Diana had just opened the door and entered the room. Of course, this had something to do with Diana's light steps, but when Diana came behind them

Neither of them noticed it at all.

Diana coughed awkwardly as she watched the two people mingling together, but inadvertently caused the two of them to overreact, and even made Erica fall backwards without being able to sit still, taking Aurora with her.

On the ground.

"Have you had enough fun?" Diana, a little embarrassed, said tepidly, "Both of them look very energetic."

Erica and Aurora hurriedly climbed up from the ground without saying a word, and then Aurora hid behind Erica very obediently.
