Witch Monastery

As she said this, she pointed out the dancers' faults one by one from a professional perspective.

Soon, the dance ended, the girls stopped dancing, stood quietly in two rows in front of her, and waited for her instructions.

Even though she had pointed out many faults before, at this moment, Marlena did not hesitate to praise them: "Very good, girls. Now there are only some minor details that need to be improved. Your performance has exceeded my expectations!"

"You are the best. I believe that you will be the most beautiful elves on the stage at next week's performance!"

She praised like this, and the dancers in front of her clapped happily. Malena smiled and nodded, then said, "Okay, now dismiss, everyone change your clothes and go take a shower."

"Remember to keep warm and don't catch a cold. Dismiss!"

After she said this, the girls responded with a "yes", and then walked to the closet, took out their backpacks and clothes, but did not change them at all. They put their coats on outside, put on their shoes, and prepared to go out.

They were too lazy to change out of their gym clothes.

You might as well just wear this outfit to the bathroom, take a good shower, and then go back to your room wrapped in a bath towel.

After all, there are no opposite sexes in the monastery, and they are all used to doing this.

Watching the girls leave, Marlena was not in a hurry to go back. She turned around and walked to the desk behind her, looking at the plan on it, quietly thinking about her future plans.

At this moment, the dancers suddenly shouted in surprise at the door: "Father, you are back?!"

Priest?

It's Hawthorne!

When she realized who had returned, Malena's heart trembled with excitement.

At this moment, she didn't care about the next task. She quickly looked up and looked towards the door. She saw a tall white-haired man surrounded by dancers.

With a warm smile on his handsome face, he explained to the dancers, "I'm here to see Ms. Malena. Is she in there now?"

The girls surrounded him, but were unwilling to leave. Their eyes glowed green, like hungry wolves: "We are here, but Father, you have been out for so long, did you bring us any gifts?"

"What's so fun about Poro? Did the priest encounter anything interesting?"

"I heard that the Holy Elephant Church in Boro has a system for selecting saints. Father, did you see it with your own eyes this time?"

……

They gathered in a circle, chattering and asking questions one after another, refusing to let him go. Hawthorne smiled bitterly, answered their questions one by one, and then took out some small ornaments he bought in Boro as gifts for them, and finally sent them away.

Then he closed the door of the training room, walked forward with a smile, walked to Malena's side, stretched out his arms and made a hug gesture: "I'm back, dear."

A bright smile also appeared on Marlena's face. At this moment, although she was already a mother, she rushed forward like a happy little girl, threw herself into his arms, and hugged him tightly: "I missed you so much, dear."

As she spoke, she raised her little face and asked him for a kiss. Hawthorne did not delay and immediately lowered his head and kissed her lips.

Chapter 799: Necklace for Marlena

After a long time, their lips parted, and the panting Marlena leaned on Hawthorne's chest, hugged his waist, unwilling to let go: "Did you miss me?"

Hawthorne naturally understood the hidden meaning of her words. He hugged her tightly with his arms and responded softly: "Of course, dear, the longer you are away, the more I miss you. Sometimes I miss you so much that I can't sleep..."

He said these words, and then he couldn't help feeling guilty. Because such words could be easily exposed, after all, he had returned to the monastery yesterday morning, and only came to see Malena this afternoon...

In order to prevent the woman from noticing the subtle difference, he took out the dimensional bag, opened it, and whispered, "My dear, I brought you a gift from Bharata this time."

As he spoke, he took out a large, beautifully wrapped pink gift box and handed it to Malena. The latter's face showed obvious surprise. She took it and opened it with trembling hands. Then, a string of crystal pearls came into her eyes.

It was a necklace made entirely of pearls, each of which was of the same size, without any flaws or spots. They had not been carved much, but simply strung together to form a necklace like this, which was already beautiful enough.

Malena's eyes were trembling. After all, this was not an era of industrialization with many strict standards. Folk clam farmers did not have a unified industry standard, and it was extremely troublesome to find so many pearls of exactly the same size.

What's more, each of them is flawless, which shows that they are all carefully selected treasures. Not to mention that Malena's father was once a marquis, even if many dukes' wives could own such a string of pearls, they would probably attract the jealousy of others.

Instantly, Malena's eyes became moist. Although she was once a noblewoman, she had never worn such beautiful jewelry. Later, her family fell into poverty and she had to face the cruelty of life alone, which made her quickly become a pragmatist. Although she used all kinds of beautiful clothes and accessories to make money, she never thought of buying herself a few luxurious jewelry.

But today, she suddenly received such a gift, and she was so happy that she almost fainted.

Hawthorne put his arm around her shoulders and asked with a smile, "Does it look good?"

Even as he said this, he still felt a little guilty. This pearl necklace was given to him by Wang Du, who said that a certain unlucky merchant had lost all his money due to the invasion of the undead and had to take out these treasured luxury goods to make up for his investment. Wang Du was begging Huo Sang to help him attract some blue dragon investment to Gendra Port, so he gave this thing to him.

Huo Sang did not refuse, but after receiving it, his first reaction was to give it to An Nuo, but unfortunately, the latter did not want it - she said that since this thing is so valuable, it is better to sell it to Rahman in exchange for a dragon scale armor or something...

This made Hawthorne speechless. He then asked other girls, but none of them wanted him. But it would be a pity to exchange such a rare luxury item for money. After all, he was not short of money. So after thinking about it, Malena, who was born in an aristocratic family, should be more suitable for this.

Necklace.

And now, looking at her expression, Hawthorne knew that this piece of jewelry had found the most suitable owner for it.

"It looks good." Marlena raised her head, her eyes blurred as water, staring at him infatuatedly, "I like it very much, dear."

In fact, she knew very well that with Hawthorne's strength, he had already been a big man at the top of Liber Harbor, and he was surrounded by women like Celine and Heidi, who possessed powerful magic powers and were also very outstanding.

He is very busy every day, busy with matters concerning the survival of the world, eliminating those demon lords who can destroy the world, and then being published on the headlines of newspapers and being worshipped and admired by countless people.

And I was just an ordinary woman with little power, a widow with a child. I was just saved by him by chance, and then I got an insignificant job in the monastery.

The gap between the two was so huge, like a sun and a speck of dust. However, not only did he not despise her at all, he also cared about her and doted on her so much...

Whenever she reviewed what had happened in the past two years, Marlena even felt a little jealous of herself. Looking at Hawthorne's gentle smile, she wished she could melt into a pool of water and then completely merge into his body.

"You are so kind, dear..."

Her body was limp as if the bones had been pulled out, and she collapsed in his arms, a smile on her face, and she uttered in a coquettish and cheesy voice as if she was drunk: "I love you so much..."

She was now in a state of intoxication from the surprise, and no longer felt any shame. Hawthorne reached out, took the necklace out of the box, and gently put it on her neck. Then he lifted her up, looked at her face, and praised her generously: "You are so beautiful, Marlena, I love you too."

He was already very familiar with this and knew that at such times, he had to express his praise in a cheesy way. Only in this way could he leave a deep impression in her heart.

Malena lowered her head and smiled shyly: "No way, how can I look good wearing this outfit and a necklace?"

This is the truth. She is now wearing a very simple white dance costume, which really does not match the necklace - she should wear an evening dress and then wear this necklace to look better.

Having said this, she stood up and took his hand: "Come on, dear, let's go home and I'll change my clothes to show you."

Hawthorne did not refuse. He took her hand and walked out together, all the way back to the residential area next to the monastery, and walked into Malena's home.

At this moment, little Lisa hadn't finished school yet, but Andre was already here. She was sitting in the living room of Marlena's house, with two small baby carriages beside her. One of them was Elise, a baby girl with spider legs on her back, and the other was Guinevere, Hawthorne and Marlena's child.

Because Malena's job requires her to go to the training room in person to train the dancers, and Andnie's task of eavesdropping is relatively free, so usually she takes care of both girls at the same time.

When Hawthorne and Malena returned home together, the two little girls, Elise and Guinevere, were awake. Although the two babies were in swaddling clothes, they had their eyes wide open, looking around curiously.

Marlena went back to the bedroom to change clothes, while Hawthorne came over to tease the little girl. When she saw him coming, little Elise opened her mouth and began to babble: "Dad... Dad."

Hawthorne glanced at Andrei and then smiled: "Did you teach her?"

Andreni blushed slightly, but then raised her head with a proud look on her face: "Of course, otherwise who else can she call daddy!"

Iris is the product of a life experiment conducted by the spider elf Plesta. To be precise, she is a failure, and it was Hawthorne who used the power of the monastery to forcibly save her life.

From this perspective, it wasn't wrong for Andrea to teach her to call him dad.

Chapter 800 Jealous Little Lisa

Next to her, Guinevere also opened her mouth, but unfortunately her pronunciation was unclear and could not express the true meaning.

Hawthorne didn't ask any more questions. He reached out and gently hooked the little girl's nose, making the two children giggle.

Behind him, Malena quickly changed into a black silk low-cut dress. Two slender straps were draped over her smooth and snowy shoulders. The deep V neckline was pushed up high by her plump breasts.

Her snow-white, delicate and deep cleavage was completely exposed, and the black material of the dress also made the pearl necklace hanging around her neck and lying quietly on her chest look even brighter.

She sat down on the chair behind Hawthorne, listened to Iris's call, rolled her eyes at him, and then said, "You have to come back more often, otherwise when I teach Guinevere to call daddy, she won't know what she is calling."

Hawthorne smiled awkwardly: "Yes, I won't be out for so long next time."

At this moment, a girl's cheerful voice suddenly sounded outside the door: "Mom, I'm back!"

It was little Lisa, the little girl with golden hair, carrying her schoolbag. As soon as she stepped into the house, she saw a familiar figure sitting in the living room.

The girl was stunned for a moment, and then she spoke in great surprise: "Father!"

As he spoke, Huo Sang felt his eyes blurred, and then the girl threw herself into his arms, with such force that she almost knocked him down: "You are finally back! I

I miss you so much..."

Hawthorne stretched out his arms, held her in his arms, smiled, and patted her back gently: "I'm back, and I brought you a gift, dear..."

He said this while rubbing her golden hair. After not seeing her for half a year, perhaps because of the excessive nutrition, or perhaps because of the awakening of her blood, in short, little Lisa grew very fast, and now she is about 1.5 meters tall, and her body is full of soft flesh. Even when she threw herself into his arms just now, he could feel that the little girl had begun to take shape.

If she continues to grow at this rate, perhaps in a few years she will be able to surpass the size of her mother, Malena.

I have to say, the power of genes is so strong.

As he said this, Hawthorne put his hand into the dimensional bag, took out a few small toys he bought from Po Luo, and handed them to Little Lisa: "Here, look, do you like it?"

He thought he would get a positive answer smoothly. However, little Lisa held the toy in her hand, glanced at the pearl necklace on Malena's neck, and suddenly curled her lips and rolled her eyes at Hawthorne: "Father, you are biased. You gave my mother such a good necklace, but you only give me these things to coax children."

Hawthorne was stunned, staring at the girl in front of him, and suddenly smiled: "Aren't you just a child? Why, you want a pearl necklace too?"

Even if we calculate it in the highest possible way, this girl is only eleven years old this year. I didn't expect that she is already like a little adult and knows how to be jealous.

At the side, Marlena was stunned for a moment, then she also laughed, twisted her daughter's shoulder, and said with a smile: "You are jealous of your own mother, Lisa?"

Lisa threw herself into Hawthorne's arms and pouted: "I also want to dress up nicely, but you won't buy it for me, mom."

Hawthorne patted her back gently and said with a smile: "Next time, I will definitely buy it for you next time."

Marlena looked up. "No, Hawthorne, don't buy it for her. She is so young, how can she wear such expensive things!"

Little Lisa pouted and continued to get into Hawthorne's arms: "The priest is still good to me."

Huo Sang hugged her and changed the subject naturally: "How is your magic practice going?"

"Fortunately, I learned another third-level spell." Lisa said, raising her hand. A golden light flashed between her fingers, and then a gentle power spread out in all directions. "Die said that this is called 'vitality aura', which can quickly heal injuries."

Hawthorne nodded slightly. Vitality Aura is a three-ring divine spell that was originally unique to priests and paladins. Its characteristics are large total amount of healing, but long duration. It is not suitable for fierce battlefields where every second counts, so no one is interested in it.

But warlocks have longer mana bars. If in the future Little Lisa can learn "instant spells" and use them continuously, shortening their effectiveness time to half or even one-third of their original value, then their tactical value will instantly go from being ignored to being a magical skill that everyone is chasing after.

The soul sorcerer is so powerful.

"In comparison..."

However, Little Lisa hadn't finished her words. After showing off her magic, she glanced at her mother and said, "Mom, you haven't learned a second-level spell yet, but you can get such a beautiful necklace as a reward..."

Marlena pretended to hit her, and Lisa giggled and shrank into Hawthorne's arms to avoid it. Hawthorne also hugged her to avoid it, and at the same time looked up at Marlena and asked, "You don't like it?"

Before, Sulfaro gave each dark angel a portion of power, and Marlena also had her own share. She gained the ability to cast spells, and Hawthorne also advised her to exercise this ability to cast spells and give herself some ability to protect herself.

But unfortunately, Marlena shook her head and smiled bitterly: "I tried, but... it really doesn't work. I can't mobilize magic as flexibly as Lisa or the dark angels, so I don't practice at all."

Hawthorne nodded slightly: "Oh... that's no problem, I'll let Sulfaro give you some more power."

It had been more than half a year since he last trained Sulfaro himself. During this time, the witches had been in charge of this job.

This doesn't mean that he doesn't care. On the contrary, he has been waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to completely break her defense.

Marlena didn't want to continue this topic, so she stood up and went to the back to make dinner. She hadn't cooked dinner herself for a long time, and she always ate with everyone in the monastery, but Hawthorne came tonight, so she wanted to have a more ceremonial feeling tonight.

After dinner, Andre knew what he was going to do next, so she left with little Elise in her arms. Hawthorne did not leave immediately, but stayed at Marlena's house, holding the woman's hand, holding little Lisa in his arms, chatting and telling them stories about his time in Borneo.

Little Lisa was so absorbed in listening that before she knew it, it was already late at night. The little girl yawned, but was still unwilling to fall asleep, hugging his neck and unwilling to let go.

Finally, after Hawthorne persuaded her several times, the girl reluctantly let go of his arms, went to the bathroom and took a quick shower.

She changed into her beige bunny pajamas, said "good night", and then went back to her room to get ready for bed.

Hawthorne waited until she closed the door before taking Malena and quietly returning to her bedroom.

They closed the doors and windows, drew the curtains, and finally turned off the lights, leaving the room completely shrouded in darkness.

玛莲

In the darkness, Na stared into Hawthorne's eyes without any words or physical provocation. Just by looking at him, she felt her body getting a little wet.

Half a year, a whole half a year, she couldn't imagine how she had survived. After getting addicted to him, how lonely she was without him. No matter how skilled his fingers were, they couldn't fill her empty body, so they only added fuel to the fire and couldn't extinguish the fire at all.

As a last resort, she could only work day and night to exhaust her physical energy every day, so that her body would be quiet and no longer need to be tortured by the raging fire.

However, this was only a temporary solution, so at this moment, the moment Hawthorne closed the door, the accumulated desire suddenly flooded her lower body.

Her body was almost starving.

Chapter 801 The Night of Reunion

"Did you miss me, dear?" Hawthorne came over, put his arms around her, gently hugged her plump body through her dress, then leaned close to her ear and asked with a wicked smile.

"I missed you." Malena's voice was soft, as if she was acting coquettishly. She hugged his body with her hands through the fabric of his clothes, eager to take it all off.

The temperature in the room began to rise, and the long-awaited joy was about to begin. Even though her clothes were still on, she felt sweet and happy all over just being hugged through the fabric. The feeling of emptiness seemed to have drained her heart, making her wish it was filled up.

"What do you miss about me?" Hawthorne continued to ask, reaching out his hand and starting to comfort her.
