Demi-human Girls Completion Manual Chapter 1638: Milica
Previously on Demi-human Girls Completion Manual...
"May the Mother Goddess bless you, sir."
When Fisher stepped off the tram and strode to the renovated exterior of St. Nali Cathedral, both he and Emhardt were a bit surprised, clearly seeing something completely different from the past.
Because at this moment, there were far too many worshippers gathered here.
Everywhere was packed with dense crowds, even though the church at the front imposed a limit on numbers, the entrance of the cathedral was still so congested that it was impenetrable, with the sounds of devout worshippers’ prayers echoing all around. Compared to when he left, the number of worshippers had grown exponentially, to the point where even Emhardt was surprised,
"Were there always so many believers of the Mother Goddess here? I thought this was Kado’s Holy Maiden Cathedral, how has the Mother Goddess Sect in Nali become so popular over the years."
"Who could have known..."
Fisher pondered for a moment, then gently squeezed through the crowd to a corner of a building to rest briefly, mainly to study the map left for him by the demi-human girl control to see exactly where it was.
But as soon as Fisher opened the map and saw the markings, he was stumped. Since he left St. Nali, under Elizabeth’s leadership, the city’s planning has changed significantly. He realized on the tram earlier that both the inner and outer church areas had undergone extensive renovations, and clearly with the Cardinal’s help, their progress was incredibly swift.
When did the demi-human girl control leave this map?
It was likely before he was born, which meant that all the markings on this map were locations from St. Nali thirty years ago, in a place like the church district where the architectural changes are complex, making it difficult for Fisher to recognize.
"Buzz Buzz Buzz!"
In the sky, a Cardinal maintaining order flew by quickly, and from it came the voice of Nali’s police,
"Everyone, please maintain order properly, please clear the central road, the cathedral’s Holy Song Team needs to enter through the main gate!"
"Oh, is it the Holy Maidens from the Song Team, have they returned from Kado’s discussion?"
"Everyone, make way!"
Holy Song Team?
Just as Fisher was at a loss while looking at the map in his hands, a carriage pulled by a Cardinal with steam billowing around emerged on the street in front. Amid the faint steam, the door of the cabin slowly opened, and young women dressed in classic black Holy Maiden Robes emerged one by one.
Each of them wore a serene and harmonious smile, holding a Creation Scripture in their hands, greeting the retreating crowd of worshippers with a smile under the protection of a few church knights built like iron barrels, as graceful as glimmering black pearls.
The last of the descending maidens was a young girl with black hair, with a wisp of golden gauze draped over her head, and in comparison with the other maidens, it was clear that this maiden held a higher status.
"Holy Maiden Milica!"
"Oh my, it’s Holy Maiden Milica!"
"Hello everyone, may the Mother Goddess bless you!"
The black-haired girl standing at the center of the maidens appeared quite composed in the face of the surrounding believers’ enthusiasm, having evidently become accustomed to it. It’s no surprise, because the nature of the Holy Maiden Chorus requires these maidens, who sing praises to the Mother Goddess, to travel across the continent, and they’re used to grand scenes, especially since they have just returned from a religious country like Kado.
She was like a beautiful gemstone, and she caught the attention not only of the people around but also of Fisher from afar.
"..."
Noticing his change in expression, the Emhardt in his arms raised his eyes and asked with deadpan eyes,
"What’s up, another of your intimate friends?"
"No, just a former student of mine."
"Oh, oh, oh, another student, huh? Who doesn’t know Moli was your student too, and you didn’t kick her out of bed."
Fisher reached out and patted his head. Generally speaking, when Fisher didn’t want to argue with Emhardt, he’d resort to such a simple and rough physical method to persuade him.
Only, at this moment, he wasn’t really out of words or angry, it was just that he truly had nothing beyond normal with Milica,
"If Milica is still in the Chorus then things would be somewhat easier, at least I wouldn’t be circling around with a decades-old map... By the way, I was originally thinking about going into the church to see Teresa."
Upon hearing the name "Teresa," the chatty Emhardt fell silent, merely raising his eyes to see Milica and the Holy Maiden Chorus about to cross the crowd into the church, he urged,
"Then let’s hurry, you should have a way to get in, right?"
...
...
"Ugh, so tired, so tired, so tired!!"
The church doors slowly closed, heavily isolating the worshippers and their prayers outside, and immediately, the expressions of the perfectly kind Holy Maidens turned lethargic, barely able to stand as they leaned on each other shoulder by shoulder.
Milica was evidently the most prominent among them. She not only tore the golden gauze off her head but couldn’t help complaining either,
"Why aren’t we going home directly? We have to return inside the church, are we supposed to stay here overnight too? No, I want to go home and eat something delicious!"
