Chapter 390 The Black-haired Girl from the East and the Tsundere Prince 6
The quill in the registrar's hand had fallen to the ground, and he opened his mouth but said nothing.
Ruan Ruan's heart skipped a beat, it seemed like she had pretended too much.
Lorian shifted his gaze from the crystal ball to the girl's face, and said with an inexplicable expression: "Ice and fire, high-level magic talent."
Ryan, who had been acting as a background figure, also looked over at this moment.
A low-ranking noble, with her peerless beauty and powerful magical talent, she is indeed a suitable candidate for the Crown Princess.
There was no joy on his face, and his eyes were dark and gloomy.
Cross straightened his magic robe, stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the Magic Association is willing to train this child."
Lorian: "The Holy See can also provide opportunities."
There was a gasp from the audience.
This is the Vatican, the place closest to God, a place that even His Highness Ryan did not enter back then. What right does she have!
Lilith roared inwardly, she gritted her teeth in hatred, and her palms were red from being pinched.
This untouchable actually dared to compete with her.
Ruan Ruan was not sure about the confrontation between the three big guys for the time being, but it was obvious that whoever she chose now would represent the team. She met the emperor's expectant gaze, and was about to speak when someone spoke first.
The Emperor: "Everyone, I understand your feelings, but I believe that the School of Magic will also welcome her to join. Of course, we can give the choice to this lady. Now, child, please go down and rest. The test will continue."
Lorian gave Ruan Ruan a faint smile.
Cross spat inwardly at the old fox and said with a forced smile: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. The association has some matters to attend to, so I will take my leave first." Then he turned and left.
The remaining two girls were hit hard by Lilith and Ruan Ruan respectively. They quickly finished the test and retreated in disappointment.
At this time, the sun was setting in the west.
Just as everyone was about to leave, two messengers in white robes came in carrying a wooden box.
The emperor was puzzled, "What is this?"
Lorian: "Your Majesty, this holy water is a gift from the Pope. Please line up and receive it."
Holy water, according to legend, is a blessing from God that can remove all dark forces, kill demons, and is worth a fortune.
Ruan Ruan looked at the small glass bottle in her hand. The golden liquid firmly covered the bottom of the bottle, and there was a faint fragrance of medicinal herbs.
Holy water, is it really as magical as the rumors say?
She decided to pretend and take it back to study it.
But Lorian kept looking at her with a smile, and Ruan Ruan had no choice but to quickly raise her head and drink it.
Compared to the piety of other girls, her movements were too casual, but the next moment a burning pain swept over her.
pain!
It hurts so much, like a raging fire burning my heart.
Every inch of her skin screamed in pain.
Ruan Ruan clenched her fists, restrained the expression on her face, and bowed her head respectfully. She clenched her teeth and tried her best to suppress the groan in her throat, not daring to show any abnormality.
Lorian observed quietly and saw that the girl lowered her head as if she was tired, and there was no other reaction.
Lina, who was standing by, saw her cuffs trembling slightly and asked worriedly, “What’s wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?”
"Sorry." Ruan Ruan squeezed out the words from between her teeth. "My stomach may not be feeling well. I just need to rest for a while."
Lina didn't think much about it, she took her hand and comforted her: "Then bear with it for a while, I'll get you some white bread when we get back."
Although Lorian couldn't hear their conversation clearly, he sensed something was wrong.
"Prince Lorian."
Ryan leaned back in his chair, his posture relaxed. "Your Holiness, how are you these days? I haven't been to pay my respects to you for a long time. I hope you can convey my highest respects to you. May God bless you."
He spoke with respect, but his tone was very casual.
Lorian had to look away, his face showing displeasure, and he said coldly: "Your Highness Ryan, His Majesty has a broad mind and will certainly understand your busyness, but worshiping the gods requires wholehearted devotion, and I hope you will not forget to praise them every day."
"Thank you for your advice, Prince." Ryan agreed and said sincerely, "I have indeed neglected my prayers to God recently. I now realize the seriousness of my mistake."
"That's great. Why don't I go back with His Royal Highness now and listen to His Majesty's teachings." He stood up and was about to leave.
"and many more!"
Lorian called him and said, "The affairs of the Church are very busy. Your Highness, if you realize your mistakes and correct them, the gods will forgive your mistakes."
"Is the Vatican busy?" Ryan pretended to be surprised. "I saw the prince here and thought there was nothing to do today."
"Your Highness, I personally cannot represent the Holy See, and the Holy See does not need to explain its actions to you." There was already a hint of anger on Lorian's face.
"I understand, I understand." Ryan smiled knowingly, "Although clergy cannot get married, the gods won't pursue it if we take a look."
"Your Highness, be careful with your words! Anyone who slanders the clergy will be burned at the stake." Lorian was so angry that veins on his forehead were throbbing.
To ensure spiritual purity, all members of the Curia were forbidden to marry.
Ryan's words were a blatant insult and frame-up. If it weren't for the royal family, Lorian really wanted to sew his damn mouth shut.
But Ryan kept on talking, "Excuse me, I hope you can forgive my joke, I just saw you staring at others, and I thought that Prince, you——"
"enough!"
Lorian interrupted him directly, and then everyone saw that the prince looked unhappy and left quickly with his servants.
His Majesty the King patted his son on the shoulder to show his appreciation.
It is really gratifying to see the people from the Vatican being humiliated.
Ruan Ruan leaned exhaustedly on Lina's shoulder, her black hair on her forehead soaked with sweat.
She was now extremely grateful that the burning pain did not last too long, otherwise she would have shown signs of abnormality.
Why didn't anyone else react to the holy water?
Is there something wrong with my magic element or this body?
Ruan Ruan closed her eyes, her thoughts in a mess.
When she recovered, she opened her eyes and met those dark purple eyes.
Ryan Sebastian.
The young man held his chin with a smile on his face and a playful look in his eyes.
The reaction of her holy water is really interesting.
I originally thought that she was also a spy that the Vatican wanted to plant among the royal family members, but now it seems that this is not the case.
Before leaving, Ryan looked at the girl deeply, as if he had discovered something interesting.
Ruan Ruan: ...How can it not be considered a success?
Not surprisingly, she was selected as the reserve Crown Princess.
The reason why it is called reserve is because the final decision is in Ryan's hands.
In the end, there were only five people left: Dolilith from the Marquis's House, Della and Dorothy were both daughters of the Duke, and Erica was from the Earl's House.
As for the other girls, each of them was given a subsidy.
Back at the castle, some people chose to leave that night.
Ruan Ruan rejected Lina's request to chat. She now urgently needed to figure out why she was rejecting holy water.
