"The guest's name is Xing. She should be the only one in the dormitory right now. She has medium-length grey hair and golden eyes. She should be easy to recognize."
"Okay, I understand. Don't worry, sister. I won't neglect the guests."
Chapter 39: Singing
In the corridor of the Knights' dormitory.
Barbara was standing at the door of the Knights of Honor dormitory.
Qin had just told her that the guest was resting, so if it was okay, there was no need to disturb him for the time being.
But Barbara still decided to go and take a look first, get to know the other party, and by the way, tell him that her sister had gone to rest, and asked him to come to her if he had any problems.
Thinking this, Barbara knocked on the door.
However, no one responded from inside the door.
"Strange, should we be on the right track?" Barbara looked up with some confusion.
Although the Church of Favonius is under the jurisdiction of the Knights Templar, Barbara has never been here because their respective locations and work locations are different.
However, the Honor Knight's dormitory was easy to find. It was at the end of the corridor, and Barbara didn't think she would go the wrong way.
After waiting for a while, Barbara knocked on the door again.
"Hello, is anyone here?"
Still no response, Barbara couldn't help but grab the door handle and push it gently.
The door opened easily.
Barbara tilted her head in confusion.
An honorary knight wouldn't go out without locking the door, right?
That means there is someone inside, but why isn't that person speaking?
"Hello, Miss Xing..." Barbara pushed open a gap, stuck her little head in, and observed the situation inside the room.
The room was clean and simple, but it was a little dark because the curtains were drawn.
Even so, Barbara saw at a glance that there was a tall beauty lying on the small bed, her chest rising and falling regularly, and it seemed that she had been sleeping for a long time.
"Eh? Are you asleep?"
Barbara was a little surprised. She heard from her sister that the distinguished guest was resting, and she thought that he just came to the Knights to rest, but she didn't expect that he went straight to sleep.
Barbara quietly apologized to Xing in her heart. Seeing that Xing had no intention of being woken up by her, she was about to quietly close the door and leave.
But just as she was about to do so, for some unknown reason, she looked up at Xing's sleeping face not far away.
"What a beautiful person..." Barbara thought this might be the most beautiful person she had ever seen.
Even when she is sleeping, just staring at her face can make people feel peaceful and harmonious.
Barbara forgot to close the door for a moment and just stared at Xing in a daze.
Until a breeze blew outside, Xing subconsciously shrank his shoulders.
Barbara finally came to her senses. She quickly walked into the room and closed the door gently.
It was a completely subconscious action. By the time she realized that she was inside the house instead of outside, it was already too late.
"Hmm..." Xing's eyelids moved and his brows wrinkled slightly.
"!" Barbara widened her eyes and tried hard not to scream.
Her heart suddenly became nervous.
Just when I was regretting why I came into the room, the lady showed signs of waking up.
If the other person woke up now and saw her in the room... Barbara couldn't imagine how embarrassing that would be.
She didn't even dare to breathe, just staring at Xing's cheek, her mind in a mess.
But fortunately, Xing just turned sideways and curled up.
There was no sign of waking up.
Barbara breathed a sigh of relief. In that instant she felt as if she had experienced her life all over again.
"I'm so sorry, Miss Xing." Barbara clasped her hands together and apologized to Xing quietly.
This time she planned to leave immediately without looking back.
Without looking back...
……
She still looked back, not for any other reason, but simply because Xing's condition really concerned her.
Xing was frowning just now, and now he looked like he had a nightmare and was in great pain.
Barbara really didn't want to leave like this.
After hesitating for a while, she slowly walked to Xing's bed and looked down at Xing.
“Da~da da da~”
Her singing voice was soothing and sweet, and the song she sang was different from the more energetic ones she usually sang. This one was gentler and more subdued, as if the key was out of tune.
As she sang, Xing's brows, which had been furrowed in a ball, gradually relaxed and his expression became more relaxed.
Shortly after……
Xing slowly opened his eyes and looked at the environment in front of him with some confusion.
It was the same dormitory as this morning, except there was an unfamiliar person there.
This person was sitting next to her, looking at her with red cheeks, and the distance was a little too close. She felt that if she raised her head slightly, her forehead would touch the other person's.
"Uh... who are you?" Xing blinked to make sure he was not seeing things.
"Yes, I'm sorry!" Barbara blushed and quickly left Xing's side.
-------------------------
Xing had a rare dream, and she seemed to have dreamed of Kafka.
In the dream, Kafka seemed to say something to her, but she completely forgot the content of the conversation. She only remembered that when Kafka turned and left, infinite sadness surged in her heart.
No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't catch up with Kafka and could only watch her go away.
At that moment she felt like a child who had lost her mother, and she had an urge to burst into tears.
And at this moment, a song she had never heard before rang out.
Warm and healing, it gradually calmed her down until she woke up.
Thinking of this, Xing looked up at the girl standing in front of him with her whole body tense.
The girl's face made her feel strangely familiar.
"Are you Captain Qin's sister?" Xing couldn't help but ask.
"I'm sorry, I...eh? How did you know?" Barbara subconsciously wanted to apologize, but after hearing what Xing said clearly, she looked at him in surprise again.
Her relationship with Qin has never been made public, and she has never even called Qin "sister" in public, always addressing her as the group leader.
The relationship between them is only known by a few high-ranking members and close friends of the Knights Templar.
"You two look a lot alike, although your dressing styles and temperaments are different. But if you only look at your faces, you're just a smaller version of Captain Qin." Xing rubbed his slightly messy hair and said with a smile.
Ying's little bed was quite comfortable. She had originally just wanted to take a nap, but she hadn't expected that it was already afternoon.
"Really? Is that true?" Hearing Xing say that, Barbara lowered her head a little embarrassedly.
"Well, I'm very sorry to disturb your rest. My name is Barbara, and I'm the prayer pastor of the West Wind Church." Barbara calmed down a little, introduced herself, and also explained the reason why she came here.
"I see..." Xing nodded, "It's okay, I don't mind. Besides, this is not my own room."
No one knew when Ying would come back. According to their estimation in the morning, it should be evening at the earliest, right?
Chapter 40 I'm back!
"Huh~ Finally done, I'm so tired..." Paimon floated in the air and stretched lazily.
"You clearly didn't use any strength." Ying complained skillfully, and at the same time collected the drop of dragon tear that he had just obtained.
"But it's not easy for me to keep up with you. Flying is also very tiring." Paimon stomped his feet in dissatisfaction.
In the past, although she didn't have to put in much effort when following Ying, she often complained of being tired, but today she was really sincere.
Ying ran so fast that her phantom limb felt like it was about to break in order to keep up with Ying.
Although Ying held her in his arms later, the feeling was not very pleasant.
After all, Ying had to fight. Facing the arrows shot by several hillbillies, Ying needed to move back and forth at high speed to avoid them.
Paimon soon became dizzy. If he hadn't had a short rest afterwards, Paimon felt like he would have vomited out the dinner he had yesterday.
"Anyway, we can go back." Ying put away the Dragon Tears and glanced in the direction of Mond.
It is already afternoon. Although Ying worked overtime and tried to clean up this secret realm as quickly as possible and collect the dragon tears, it still took quite a long time.
I don’t know if Xing has woken up yet.
"Speaking of which, there should be no problem with Grandpa Diluk. I always feel a little worried about going to Dadaupa Valley." Paimon said in Ying's ear.
She had heard of a place called Dadaupa Valley, where three tribes of Chuchur people lived.
This is different from the Hillichul camps you encounter in the wild.
Even with someone like Diluk, Paimon still felt a little worried.
"Don't worry, he'll be fine." Ying didn't care much about Diluk. She felt that unless he encountered a Wind Dragon, nothing would happen.
They are just a bunch of hillbillies. What difference does it make if there are more of them?
"Maybe he will be back earlier than us."
She was more worried about Xing than Diluk.
Xing was resting in the Knights' dormitory, so logically no one should disturb him.
But that's just in theory.
Captain Qin is an upright person, but he may occasionally do something not so upright...
Especially with Xing, she had seen before that Captain Qin wanted to invite Xing to rest with her.
If she hadn't stopped him and Xing had agreed to it, Xing might have been taken advantage of.
Although the above are just her guesses, they cannot be ignored.
"No matter what, Xing, I will never let go!"
"I've decided to start saving raw stones from now on!" Ying clenched his fists with full fighting spirit.
"You're saying something I don't understand again." Paimon looked at Ying speechlessly.
He said before that he would keep a safe distance from Xing, but now he has said that he will never let go.
And as for that raw stone, she didn't know what the point of saving it was, and she couldn't exchange it for Mora.
Moreover, is there any inevitable connection between stars and raw stones?
"You're not trying to rely on the raw stones to keep Xing by your side, are you? If that's the case, I think the chances of success will be greater if you use delicious food. Your cooking is delicious..." Paimon touched his chin and gave Ying some advice.
"Hehe, you won't understand." Ying shook her head and had no intention of listening to Paimon's advice.
She seemed very confident in herself.
"Well, I hope you can succeed." Paimon spread his hands.
