Durin's Diary

Chapter 282 Night

The finished storyboard was handed over to Monsignor Angelio Gallagher, who was to take it back and have it reviewed by the old-fashioned College of Cardinals first.

Du Lin made special explanations, fearing that these old men would not understand the art of the lens.

Elaine had some complaints about this. In her opinion, the church masters had little money but a lot of work to do, which was really a headache. It was better to be like Grandpa Jim Millerson, who had less money to do and never made a fuss.

Silly girl, the money is little and the work is great, but the church can really support your Du Lin. If anything really happens, the church's crusaders can really help.

After hearing what Du Lin said, Elaine nodded in understanding.

But no matter what, I can finally have a day off today.

At the same time, the passenger flow once again exceeded everyone's expectations. There were even guests coming from as far away as Sidney. They had seen the advertisement of the Everburning Nest and came all the way here specially - the guests either came from the transmission channel or took a high-speed passenger ship, which highlighted that they were not short of money.

There was no other choice, so Du Lin could only take the girls out at noon and make more than 700 servings of fried shrimp, the specialty of the Everburning Nest.

If you keep frying shrimps every day, your right arm will soon be thicker than your left arm.

Daju issued a health report for Du Lin.

Du Lin had no choice but to put up a notice in advance, stating that he would produce a promotional video for the Church of the Original Creator starting tomorrow.

"I'm so tired." As soon as they came out of the bathroom, Anta fell on the bed with Elaine and Maria. The three girls were looking back and forth in the kitchen. The magician's hands were almost knotted. They were very tired.

Xia Li and Melinda are okay, though - one is a northern hunter with a strong enough body; the other is a second-ring druid who has been good at the family business since childhood and has mastered the most professional skills.

Du Lin was lying on the recliner. His long tail was different from Lina's. This girl's tail was thick and long, so she couldn't sleep on her back. But Du Lin was different. Although it was a little uncomfortable, as long as the cushion was soft, he could still sleep on his back.

After a while, Xia Li brought a large can of ice cream. She sat in front of Du Lin and started feeding him.

"What about yours?" Du Lin asked.

"This is the last can," Xia Li replied with a smile. The kitten's ears twitched, and its tail, tied with a red harness, swung left and right. "Miss An and the others are very tired today, so let me feed you."

"Is that so? I'll prepare some more tonight." Du Lin said as he sat up. "How do you feel about coming to the south, Xia Li?"

"The wilderness is very fun, and it's not cold even in winter. Master, you should take Xia Li with you in the future, okay? Although Xia Li doesn't have much strength, he just wants to be with you. Just like what it says in the poetry collection, I want to accompany you as far as forever is." The little kitten said here and looked at Du Lin with some concern.

She didn't say anything, but her worry and fear were in her eyes.

Du Lin's heart softened. He nodded and said, "Yes, you will always be my head maid."

The kitten was overjoyed, her joy was in her flapping ears and her happiness was in her wagging tail.

She couldn't hide her happiness at all, just like her sadness would always flow in her eyes.

Du Lin still remembers the first time he saw her. The little kitten stood there at a loss, knowing nothing. She was taken care of by the nanny from the mansion, who had to teach her everything.

Every time she was scolded, she would hide her grievance in her eyes until she cried quietly at the end of the corridor at night when no one knew.

It is said that the prototypes of Nicolais kittens like Quercus robur were nocturnal in the past because of their small size.

She instinctively liked moonlight. So, after dinner, Du Lin and An Ta discussed it, and finally, around 10 o'clock in the evening, Du Lin and An Ta took Xia Li and flew into the night sky.

The night sky over Evercast Fortress is clear today, with a round moon hanging in the zenith.

Xia Li was extremely happy as he was being led by Du Lin and Anta in the sky.

When it came down, the kitten was so excited that it was incoherent and could hardly speak the common language. It just kept meowing.

I feel like her druid abilities seem to have been enhanced. Is it possible that moonlight enhances her abilities? Are there any moonlight-related advancements for druids?

Du Lin really doesn't know.

But it's okay. Xia Li likes it. He can take her up to the sky more often when the weather is fine. And if it really helps her growth, Du Lin doesn't mind flying a few more times.

After all, this is a real cat, so cute.

………………

Then, before dawn the next day, a bald man appeared in the Everburning Nest and took Du Lin and his girls into the church.

Fortunately, the church also provides breakfast, and it is quite good.

Dulin didn't eat much because the College of Cardinals wanted to see him.

This is a troublesome matter.

Du Lin had to eat two bites in a hurry, and then followed Angelio Gallagher into the hall.

As he stepped into the conference room, Du Lin looked at the more than ten old men sitting in the circular conference room with a humidity of 300 degrees. Angelio Gallagher took Du Lin to the chair in the middle and motioned for Du Lin to sit down. Then he went to an empty seat and sat down.

"Durin Elsh, son of Elsh, welcome to the meeting room. We called you here today because we want to understand a few small issues in the storyboard." The old man with glasses on his nose looked at Durin.

"Excuse me." Du Lin adjusted his collar and said with a smile.

The cardinal beside him held up a single-shot painting. "Excuse me, what is the symbolic meaning of the horned, linear insect in this painting?"

Daju laughed very wildly.

Du Lin smiled wryly and pointed at his dragon horns. "Respected Cardinal, please look at my dragon horns and then my dragon tail. This is a simplified symbol of me created based on my own dragon image. I will use this symbolic meaning uniformly in promotional videos for various churches. Sorry, I forgot to explain it in the storyboard."

As soon as he finished speaking, a big circle appeared under Du Lin, which was proof that he had passed the lie detection.

The cardinals laughed.

"I told you, this is clearly a pattern created by little Durin based on his appearance." The Grassland Elf Cardinal on the other side nodded at Durin. "Son, you must explain symbolic patterns like this in the future. The Church is very strict about them. Whether in the north or the south, there are always evil gods ready to make moves. We have seen many things more abstract than yours."

"I understand." Du Lin nodded with a smile.

The previous cardinal stepped down awkwardly, and another dwarf cardinal took his place, holding up the second storyboard. "Son, I've seen the promotional video you made for the Twin Mothers. It's truly remarkable. However, I rarely see joy in your storyboard for the Primordial Creator. Why?"
