About the time I was picked up and adopted by Tallulah

"Ahahaha, there will definitely be another chance in the future."

Orson rubbed Kongxian's hair. He was teased by Skadi every day and finally found an opportunity.

"But if Miss Kongxian is not available, what should we do..."

"By the way, every certified nun can bring a novice nun with her."

The dean added.

"See Sister Xi... Then I——"

After hearing this, Skadi came over and asked in a low voice.

"Ahaha... Miss Skadi probably isn't that good. After all, you don't look like someone who believes in gods, but more like someone who kills gods."

The dean smiled and rejected Skadi's self-recommendation.

"……I see."

Being rejected so decisively, Skadi nodded, then ran to the corner without saying a word and became autistic.

"So, we're left with 'Miss Jeanne'... Haha, this is going to be troublesome."

"Miss Jeanne" herself sighed at the current situation.

"Mr. Orson, is your sister busy with something else right now?"

As soon as he heard the topic of 'Miss Jeanne', Kong Xian immediately leaned over to ask.

"Haaah, rather than being busy with other things... Anyway, let's think about it again!"

Faced with Kong Xian's extremely passionate questioning, Orson could only flee and abruptly change the subject.

"By the way, who is Miss Jeanne?"

The little killer whale, who had finally recovered from his autism, returned to Orson and brought the topic back to where it had been with great difficulty.

"That Joan of Arc—"

"You don't even know Mr. Orson's sister! I'm about to open my text and tell you the significance of Miss Jeanne's certification as a nun in less than two weeks!"

Kong Xian's eyes lit up, and he was ready to start telling the story of 'Miss Jeanne' like a fanatical missionary.

"So Orson actually has a sister... Please tell me."

Skadi on the side also came forward curiously to listen to the lecture, while Orson next to him had dull eyes.

Everyone has a dark history, that's okay.

But if your own dark history is framed and known as a Bible, and is preached everywhere, it makes people feel a little bit like living in Bengbu.

Just when Orson was in despair, the dean came to the rescue again and interrupted the empty string.

"Let's talk about Miss Jeanne's deeds later. We're still discussing it now, aren't we? Mr. Orson's companion, Remuel, is still waiting outside."

"Ah—I'm sorry, Dean!"

After being instructed by the dean, Kong Xian realized that this was the meeting stage and not the time to unleash his cooking skills.

"That's how it is with the Pala Monastery. The worst option is to ask Remuel to help you gather intelligence. Don't be fooled by her appearance; she's also a legal citizen of Lateran."

"Well, as for Aneng...if it means blowing up the Pala Monastery, I would consider it."

The suggestion put forward by the dean was designed by Orson as PLAN Z, which would never be considered unless it was absolutely necessary.

After all, he was only going there to gather intelligence on the Deep Sea Church. If he sent out the Archangel, it would probably turn into a new religious war ().

"That's all the information I have. As for the following topic, Mr. Orson, you can ignore it and leave, or stay here and listen. This may be nonsense, or it may be the coming revelation."

The dean suddenly lowered her tone. She glanced at Skadi and Kongxian, and finally met Orson's pupils with her gaze.

"Please speak, Master Dean."

Orson didn't leave immediately. He indicated that he would continue listening.

"Then, Mr. Orson—the 'ancient gods' of this land are awakening, and only you and the power you possess can stop them."

The dean said this, enunciating each word without any intention of joking.

--------

While Orson and his group were talking to the abbot of the Landon Monastery, the Archangel who was waiting outside the door was staring at the Ghost Shark who was also waiting outside.

"Come to think of it, you're an operator from Rhodes Island, right? What are the employee benefits like there? If the boss of Penguin Logistics suddenly runs away, I've actually considered going to work in Rhodes Island. However, I've asked some people about the employee benefits there, and they all told me to 'run away!'"

"Rhodes Island? Haha... I don't know."

"Ah this..."

Because the scene of the two of them looking at each other in silence was a bit too weird, Archangel took the initiative to chat with Ghost Shark, but Ghost Shark's reaction did not seem very "friendly".

"By the way, what does Miss Ghost Shark usually do in Rhodes Island? Is it the core medical department?"

"I'm responsible for sinking into nightmares. Occasionally, in the gap between dreams and reality, I'll use a saw to cut the flesh of sinners. The warmth of their blood can briefly warm my soul... hehe."

"Hmm, I see..."

Exia wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and nodded to show that he fully understood.

——This guy is so weird!

Although he was fully aware that the Ghost Shark was a freak, the socially adept Archangel did not back down.

"So, Ms. Ghost Shark, what is your relationship with Orson?"

The Angel of Exiah played hard to get, laying the groundwork for a few questions before bringing up the topic he cared about most.

"We are Lian——"

Ghost Shark, who was originally planning to say "lover" directly, was stunned for a moment. On the one hand, her previous behavior had caused trouble to Orson, so she decided not to cause more trouble.

On the other hand, Ghost Shark has never thought about what kind of existence he is to Orson.

——That boy...how does he see me?

I am probably just a 'burden', and the only reason the boy tried to help me was probably because "Skadi asked me to do so".

But the words he said to himself at that time did not sound false...

Ghost Shark's thinking came to a dead end, and his expression became solemn and gloomy, as if he was a yandere who was gathering strength to chop someone.

"Wow, you suddenly have a strange expression on your face—well, well, if that bothers you, it's okay not to answer! Let's change the subject. Are you a nun?"

Exiah on the side was also frightened by Ghost Shark's expression and hurriedly changed the subject again.

"Ha, that's totally inconsistent. I'm a bloodthirsty, bloody being. What I bring to others is endless pain, not salvation."

"Wow..."

Exia was startled by Ghost Shark's serious and ceremonial self-introduction, but she still smiled.

"But you must be a very kind person~"

"--Why?"

"Because Orson trusts you. It's a simple reason."

Exia replied with a smile, while Ghost Shark stood there in a daze. These words sounded too childish, but she didn't know how to refute them.

At this moment, Orson walked out of the conference room and ended the conversation between Archangel and Ghost Shark.

"Orson! So you guys talked a little bit—huh!?"

Exia was about to go over and say hello, but it was Orson who got close to Exia's ear first, pulled her aside, and mysteriously put his lips to her ear:

"Do you have any nun uniforms left? Lend me one..."

"Eh?"

12. The Chimera with Growing Female Power

"Eh hey hey!? What the heck is going on?"

When Archangel heard Orson's request, he was shocked and hurriedly leaned over to ask Orson in a low voice what he meant by suddenly asking this question.

"Hush—of course there are many reasons... Anyway, we need to go to the Pala Monastery to look up some information about the Deep Sea Church. To do this, we need someone with religious certification. However, Hildegard has something else to do soon and can't help."

Orson quickly suppressed the voice of the Archangel and briefly explained why he suddenly wanted a nun's uniform.

"Oh, I see—that means you need me to help you be a nun, right? Hmm, then leave it to me! Seriously, I thought you were going to wear the nun's clothes yourself again."

Exia wiped his forehead and said in a low voice, while naturally expressing that he was capable of doing the job.

"Well, it's true that I want to dress casually, because I'm really worried about the Angel of the Nun mode you use..."

Orson responded in a low voice, somewhat embarrassed and shy.

"Really?! Orson, are you going to transform into a nun again? That's awesome... Ahem, no, I mean, is this okay?"

When she heard that the fantastic plot she had imagined was actually going to come true, Exia was unexpectedly ecstatic.

But after being happy, Angel felt a little embarrassed. Orson would rather wear women's clothing himself than let her help to clean up the scene. In his eyes, how outrageous was she...

Although I was often criticized and educated, and occasionally even arrested and put in solitary confinement, I knew that I was actually a good nun!

"It's not a question of whether there is a problem or not, but this is the only way to do it now..."

Orson's expression was very helpless, but his tone sounded very firm, which made Archangel nod his head, realizing that Orson was not joking with him. Of course, Orson would never joke about his women's clothing.

"Then come with me later. I happened to have a nun's uniform in my suitcase when I came back this time. It should be perfect for you. But before that...what about the people who came with you?"

Exia asked Orson how to fool the two white-haired, red-eyed guys who were traveling with him.

"Oh, Ghost Shark and Skadi? That's no problem. Didi is actually much more simple-minded than she looks cold and silent. As for Ghost Shark—"

"I really appreciate you choosing to listen to my nonsense, Mr. Orson."

Before Orson finished speaking to Archangel, the dean came out of the conference room and said with a smile, interrupting Orson.

"I don't think that's nonsense, Dean. You wouldn't joke with me like that, and in a sense, I completely agree with what you said before. It was you who made me realize what I can do with my current identity. In that sense, I should be the one thanking you."

Orson temporarily stopped talking to the Archangel. He turned to face the abbess who was also wearing a nun's uniform and performed a chivalrous salute.

"I will keep your words in mind. After this trip to Lateran is over, I will return to make the necessary preparations. Before that, could you please prepare a vehicle for us? We may need it on our way to the Pala Monastery."

"Haha, what a perfect etiquette! Even the serious Knight Casimir rarely sees such effortless chivalry. It's just like Sister Jeanne d'Arc. And don't worry about the vehicle."

"Cough cough cough...!"

The dean smiled and nodded at Orson, who was choked. At the same time, Skadi and Kongxian walked out of the conference room one after another.

Unlike Orson, the expressions on the faces of Skadi and Kongxian, who came out from behind, were a little subtle. It seemed as if they did not believe the content of the topic they just heard, and they also seemed confused and bewildered about the upcoming "turmoil".

Orson looked at Skadi, then thought for a few seconds and picked up the conversation with the dean again.

"Um... Regarding the previous vehicle, if conditions permit, please try to prepare a large-displacement vehicle with a stronger load-bearing capacity for us."

"Hmm? Of course, that's fine, but your team probably doesn't need that much horsepower and load, right?"

The dean tilted his head and asked curiously, but because Didi was right next to him, Orson could only laugh and say something incomprehensible like "Men just like large displacement!" to try to fool him.

"Anyway, I'll trouble you from now on, Dean—beep beep beep"

Orson said to the dean, then he took the initiative to ring the phone in his pocket, then took it out and put it to his ear pretending to make a call.

"Hello? Hello, yes, I'm the one you're looking for. It's not convenient for me to answer the phone here. Please wait a moment. I need to change my seat."

"?"

Orson loudly pretended to be talking to someone, and pretended to be going to find somewhere else and prepared to leave from everyone.

——Let’s go, Exia!

Orson turned his back to the others and continued to pretend to talk on the phone while making gestures to Archangel.

"What is this, pantomime rap?"

Angelica didn't understand Orson's intention at all, and Orson could only use bigger movements to perform one-handed seals for Angelica.

"Wow, is this some kind of psychic summoning thing? I have no idea what you're doing... woo!"

Seeing that Archangel couldn't understand no matter how he gestured, Orson could only grab Archangel and move him and himself out of the church in a way that seemed particularly strange to others.

"——Please try to understand a little! My gesture just now was clearly telling you to leave first!"

After sneaking out of the church in a very lame way, Orson finally didn't have to pretend to make a phone call anymore. He put the phone back in his pocket and complained loudly to Archangel.
