Path of Light.

Chapter 136 137. The Vanishing Holy Grail

The High Priest Reed stood at the door of the tree house and asked Priest Thorndike:
"You mean Priest Theodore knows about this?"

Priest Thorndike replied:

"Of course, he has been coming here every day recently to treat Master Clara Latin..."

Priest Reid knew about this matter, according to Priest Theodore's words, he wanted to use his method to impress more nobles of the Silver Moon Elf...

And the Silver Moon Elf on the side also reiterated again:
"According to our agreement, after the teacher dies, the Holy Grail will return to its original owner."

Although Priest Reed still had some doubts in his heart, he was still willing to believe that what they said was true.

So after leaving Master Claire Latin's tree house, he took Roy and Jasper back to the Temple of Liberty, and did not continue to detain the two young priests.

As soon as he entered the gate of the temple, Priest Reed couldn't wait to ask Abbott:

"Has Priest Theodore come back?"

"Teacher, he never came back," Abbott replied.

Priest Reid was a little preoccupied, and walked into the main hall without looking back. Before leaving, he also ordered:

"When he comes back, remember to notify me!"

"Okay, Great Priest Reed." Abbott agreed loudly.

Roy did not follow Priest Reed back to the Temple of Liberty, but went home directly when he heard that Priest Theodore had not returned.

If Priest Theodore has not appeared, then the whereabouts of the Holy Grail remains a mystery.

Abt, who was standing in the doorpost, looked at Roy and Jasper expectantly.

You can tell from that expression that he wants the two of them to tell him: what exactly did they see when they went to Master Claire Latin's residence this time...

……

But it was late at this time, and Roy slipped back home.

This day was too long for Roy. He just felt that his legs were filled with lead. He walked listlessly to the door of the house, pushed open the courtyard door and walked in, and then closed the courtyard door.

A crescent moon climbed up from the sea, and the moonlight shone in the yard.

Moira lay prone on the wall, propped her hands on the wall, and asked probingly:

"I heard that something happened to the Temple of Liberty, Roy, how are you?"

A pair of bright and cute eyes made Roy unwilling to perfuse her even if he was exhausted.

Roy stopped, turned around and said to the half-race girl lying on the low wall:
"Everything is fine!"

Moira could see that Roy's mood was not too high, but thinking that he was more bored at home alone, she tried to ask:

"Roy, shall we practice martial arts tonight?"

Roy actually didn't really want to practice. He just wanted to take a good bath, lie quietly on the bed, and reorganize what happened today.

But when he saw the light shining in Moira's big eyes, he hadn't had time to tell her... about the sentencing of the sailors who killed Jefferson.

Roy cheered up and said:
"Okay, I just happen to have something to show you."

Moira squinted her eyes, and her eyes were filled with anticipation. She asked Roy with a smile:
"What is it?"

Roy groped around in the satchel for a while, and finally found the magic crystal from the compartment, and threw the magic crystal to Moira directly.

"this!"

Moira's body was as nimble as a nightsaber, she caught the crystal firmly, and only exclaimed after holding it in her hand:
"Magic crystal."

Roy tugged at his satchel, then walked towards the house, saying as he walked:

"Well, it was given to me by a very great personage. Unfortunately, I can't comprehend what's inside, so now I ask you to help me take a look."

Moira regained her spirits immediately, held the magic crystal firmly in her hand, smiled triumphantly and said:
"Okay!"

Roy pushed open the door and saw the empty living room. Thinking of Ms. Belinda who had gone to Buenos, he said to Moira on the other side of the courtyard wall:
"I'll take a shower first...you take your time."

After a casual shower, he washed his clothes and dried them on the second-floor terrace.

Moira and Sabrina were sitting on the opposite terrace, looking at the image in the magic crystal together.

Both of them watched it with gusto, and obviously liked the elf sword dance in it.

Roy tried to stretch his body ligaments on the terrace of his home. He found that since he drank the bottle of permanent agility potion, his body's flexibility and balance had been greatly strengthened.

Moira and Sabrina waved to him across the terrace, then Moira shook the magic crystal in her hand and said loudly to Roy:
"Roy, I want to see this magic crystal a few more times..."

"No problem." Roy waved his hand and readily agreed.

Seeing that Roy seemed to have everything ready, Moira pulled out a dagger from a flower pot on her terrace, jumped briskly onto the railing of Roy's terrace, and said with a little pride:

"Come on, let me see if your martial skills have regressed in the past month..."

Moira, who was holding the dagger in her hand, immediately seemed to be a different person.

Standing under the moonlight, the whole person is empty, but her shadow is so clear and real.

It was the first time Roy had this strange feeling. He only knew that the dark moon elves had the ability to hide, but he had never seen it...

This time Roy did not take a wooden hammer, but picked up a round wooden shield from the terrace behind him, and a wooden stick beside the clothesline. The wooden hammer is much lighter.

Then he swung his stick and attacked Moira.

Moira lowered her waist to dodge the wooden stick that was swept out, and then the dagger she held in her backhand lifted up, stabbing Roy's jaw back.

Roy could only press down the round wooden shield in her hand, but the dagger in her hand was as flexible as a snake letter, which could be swallowed at will.

The movements were as nimble as a ghost in the night, and Roy tried his best to keep up with her speed...

Roy discovers that she and Claire are completely different situations.

Roy only needs to seal Claire's dagger with a shield, and he can easily block his attack, but Roy wants to use this method to deal with Moira, it is not so clever, even if he seals Moira's dagger , but it is impossible to judge what method she will use to attack in the next moment. She is the kind who can hide herself at any time by taking advantage of the surrounding environment, and can easily gain the initiative in the battle every time.

Moira didn't stop until beads of sweat broke out on her forehead and the tip of her nose, and stood firmly on the fence of Roy's terrace.

"Roy, you have become a lot stronger. I thought I could stabilize you, but I didn't expect you to be able to block them all..."

Moira said in surprise.

Sabrina on the opposite terrace also looked at Roy in surprise, and she also found that Roy's growth these days was unusually fast...

……

The next day, Roy came to the Elf Academy early.

As usual, the first session was an elementary martial arts training class. Roy noticed that Claire was dressed a little formally. He was wearing a very decent elf dress. Even the sparring in the martial arts class was very careful, obviously not wanting to get hurt.

Claire's appearance was a bit delicate, and when she put on the exquisite dark gold pattern dress, she immediately caused some elf girls to turn their heads frequently in the martial arts training class.

Even Roy couldn't help complaining about him as a 'sex bag'.

Roy's second class is geography.

Although such a big thing happened in the outdoor practice class, Roy found that...it didn't seem to affect Mr. Harper's status in the Elf Academy.

He walked to the huge sand table in his own way, expanded an area randomly with the pointer in his hand, and began to talk about the landform characteristics of that area.

Roy just felt that no matter how scribbled and fast he wrote, the speed of recording could never keep up with Mr. Harper's mouth.

After a class, Roy felt his wrists were a little sore...

But just as a class was about to end, Roy suddenly heard a series of beautiful notes coming from the corridor outside the classroom.

In fact, the distance between the geography classroom and the music classroom is not too far, but there is soundproof cotton in the music classroom. As long as the door is closed tightly, the sound will not be transmitted to the corridor.

At this time, the second class was about to end soon, someone secretly opened the door of the music classroom, and the sound of beautiful music came out from inside.

The crisp sound of 'ding ding dong dong' flowed out, and the chaotic geography classroom gradually quieted down.

"I heard it, what is that song... I have never heard it before, I swear if I hear it, I will definitely be impressed!"

A silver moon elf beside Roy whispered to his companion.

"It's the first time I've heard it too. It's really good." Another silver moon elf praised in a low voice: "Do you think it might be the work of those students in the music class?"

"..."

Roy didn't hear what was said later, because the voices of the two elves became smaller.

Only then did he know that Claire was dressed so formally today, so he had a music class.

The bell for the end of the second class rang in such a beautiful piece of music. This may be the last bell for the end of get out of class that everyone wants to hear...

But it seems that the beautiful music has not stopped. When the students rushed from the classroom to the corridor, they can still hear the crisp and melodious music.

Everyone's footsteps became extremely light, and no one wanted to disturb the beautiful melody.

Roy knew that Claire succeeded this time...

……

Back at the Temple of Liberty, Roy found out that Priest Theodore hadn't heard from him until now.

The guards, who had been silent for a long time, had new clues, and immediately began to investigate the whereabouts of Priest Theodore yesterday afternoon, but according to the reactions of the neighbors around the tree house of Master Claire Latin, Priest Theodore seemed to have disappeared out of thin air Similarly, no elf saw which direction he left from.

Gone with him was the Grail of Wisdom.

In addition to the guards looking for Priest Theodore all over the world, the Temple of the Moon is also mobilizing the priests of the Temple of the Moon to inquire about Priest Theodore in order to give an explanation to the Temple of Liberty and the Great Priest Reed.

On the contrary, the Temple of Liberty is relatively quiet. With the accidents of Priest Andison and Priest Theodore, the gathering activities at the Temple of Liberty have not been affected much...
