Chapter 101 Cole receives the letter, Noelin sobs.
"You must not do anything foolish, and you must remember to discuss anything with us."
Seeing Kong's determined gaze, Iman patted him on the shoulder repeatedly.
"I will, I think so..."
the other side.
Omos Harbor, open-air restaurant.
After a period of lingering affection, Xunfeng returned to normal.
"Ahem, where were we?"
"The Council of the Church uses the void to strip the Sumeru Man of his dreams."
After regaining his senses, Elhesen kindly reminded him.
“Elheisen, since you hold a high position in the Council of the Church, then I would like to trouble you to investigate how the Void works and try to stop the Council of the Church from continuing to use the Void.”
“You overestimate me… The void is a product of the wisdom of the grass god, and I don’t believe I can accomplish this task.”
"Since that's the case... then... shall we send you to challenge the new god one-on-one?"
"Uh... never mind, I'm actually quite interested in the void, please let me take on this glorious mission."
After weighing the options, Elhesen had no choice but to compromise.
"Oh, right, our whereabouts have been exposed."
Elhesen glanced at the spy in the tree, then slowly offered a reminder.
"Those people were sent by Hazard to spy on you, weren't they?"
Xun Feng calmly interlaced his fingers and then slowly leaned against the table.
“Exactly. I thought I had shaken them off, but they found me again. Hazard always felt that with my personality, I would never sit idly by and watch him continue his plans, so he often observed my movements to eliminate any potential dangers.”
"Hmm... He's quite a cautious person. It seems that to be able to sit in the position of a Great Sage, one still needs some cunning and skill."
“Hazard has already driven away many scholars whose academic views do not conform to his requirements. If he continues like this, soon the Council of the Church will only be left with scholars who cater to him. The Council of the Church is a place to provide a learning platform, not a place for Hazard to flaunt his authority. It is a tragedy for the Council of the Church to have such a great sage.”
As he spoke, Elhesen crossed his arms with a serious expression.
"Hmm... You should return to the Order of the Church as planned. As a scribe, you should be able to consult many books related to the Void."
“That’s no problem at all. But just to be on the safe side, besides books related to the Void, I need to read other books as well, otherwise my purpose will be too obvious and will definitely arouse Hazard’s suspicion. So, my progress won’t be fast.”
"Then... the investigation of the Void is entrusted to you."
After saying that, Xunfeng smiled with relief.
"We should go now, see you later."
"See you."
Mount Sumeru is a city wall.
"Hehe, it's a letter my master wrote to me."
Clutching the white envelope, Cole eagerly tore it open.
The contents of the letter:
"Colette, have you had any relapses lately? Remember to take your medicine on time, get plenty of rest, and don't overexert yourself with heavy work. I'm doing well at the Order of the Fathers. After Azar learned that I was willing to take the position, he finally put aside his prejudices. While I'm away, you must fulfill your duties as rangers and protect the Dawson Forest. Colette, please give my regards to everyone for your hard work."
"master……"
Moved by the neat handwriting in the letter, Cole carefully folded it again and put it back in the envelope.
"I'll show the letter to everyone when they get back."
Just as she was stunned, Noelin's figure leaped into the doorway.
The next second, Noelin, in a panic, bent down and pounced on the refrigerator like a hungry tiger.
When Cole heard the noise and looked up, Noelin had already made a complete mess of the refrigerator.
After stuffing her mouth full of cake, Noelin raised her eyebrows in satisfaction.
"Phew~ That was close, I almost starved to death—"
Upon noticing her actions, Cole quickly got up and moved closer.
"Noelin, did you forget to bring your food again today?"
"That's right... I left in a hurry this morning and forgot to take the snacks from the bedside table again."
After saying that, Noelin's eyes welled up with tears of grievance.
Then, while sobbing pitifully, she frantically stuffed large mouthfuls of bread into her mouth.
This strikingly contrasting scene left Cole speechless.
Noelin stopped sobbing after she finished eating five slices of bread.
"Hmm... I'm full, I'm not hungry anymore, hehe."
After saying that, she habitually pulled a tissue from her pocket and wiped away the tears that were still rolling down her face.
“Sigh…you cry whenever you’re hungry, then eat when you cry, then get full as soon as you eat, then laugh when you’re full, and then get hungry again when you laugh. Even your master is at a loss with these strange symptoms of yours…”
After saying that, Cole patted his head helplessly.
Upon hearing her reveal her secrets, Noelin blushed instantly and awkwardly covered her eyes.
"It's just how I was born... there's nothing I can do about it..."
After saying that, Noelin innocently stuffed another piece of bread into her mouth.
"...You're hungry again after just a few words?!"
Cole stared in astonishment at Noelin, who had just said she was full but then started eating again.
