Chapter 86: Feeling of Inferiority

"Elysia Avery, Evelyn Mitch.e.l.l, come with me to my resident. We study together there. Maybe we can annoy my grandfather to teach us a thing or two." Gabriella happily invited.

Elysia and Evelyn looked at each other before nodding at her and the three of them immediately headed out of the small church building to go somewhere in the main cathedral building.

The students left in the room could only watch the two most talented girls in their cla.s.s go to a special place with Pope"s granddaughter.

Brian clenched his fists with confidence to get an additional t.i.tle from his occupation later. If he can become a great knight and able to master holy magic even simply in grade 1, he will get the t.i.tle of Holy Knight and he must get it.

They were grouped into four groups of four and two groups of three. Four male students were in one group and would be guided by a male senior priest, Lily immediately came out to call the Priests who were needed and did not yet have study group responsibility.

When the 22 students had secured their new group with a senior priest as a coach in each group, Gabriella as the new Priest was cheerfully guiding her two cute juniors to her special resident.

"Priest Gabriella, may I ask you a few questions?" Elysia asked as they entered the corridor in the cathedral and the three of them stopped walking.

"Sure, don"t be shy to ask me but before that… Since we"ll probably continue as a study group indefinitely, please don"t call me that name in private time. You two can call me Gabriella or Ella." Gabriella turned around and smiled at her two juniors.

"Okay, in exchange, you can call me Ely. Nice to meet you, Ella."

"Yes, call me Eve hehe... Greetings."

Elysia and Evelyn didn"t mind that, they smiled back at Ella.

"Wonderful. Nice to meet you too, Ely, Eve. This is the first time I"ve had this much responsibility. I might be a little clumsy, but please take care of me." Ella interlaced her fingers happily.

"With pleasure, please take care of us too."

They continued their stride and then Elysia remembered that she opened the conversation to ask questions instead of introducing each other with familiar names.

"Ella, are you really the granddaughter of the Pope, Alexander Celestine?"

"Um, yes. He"s my grandfather. Do you know him, Ely?" Ella stopped and turned around again.

"He"s famous, I"ve only met him once at the Holy Library." Elysia nodded slightly.

"Hum, he"s always going out in public under the guise of his life magic abilities. Are you sure it"s him?" Ella tilted her head slightly.

"Yes, I"m sure it really is him. I met him three days before the academy started, right after I enrolled. He opened his disguise to me so I couldn"t be wrong. At first, I really didn"t know him at all." Elysia nodded again innocently, she needed to know a little about the Pope from his granddaughter firsthand before meeting him later.

"Oh my... Then it can"t be wrong, it"s my grandfather. Grandfather did come out and spend a long time in the Holy Library that day. He sure is hard to spot when he"s in disguise."

Ella nodded in understanding. Ella didn"t know what Elysia meant was she really didn"t know Pope at all until she found out from some books about the Holy Church, not because of his disguise.

"What, Ely... So you enrolled in the academy three days before you came to the dorm room? Seven days of loneliness and I thought I was going to live alone... I should only have waited 4 days if you visited the dorm room first." Evelyn puffed her cheeks in dissatisfaction.

"Fufu... You"re like a pufferfish again, Eve. But why does the Pope always come out undercover, Ella? Is there a special purpose?" Elysia giggled a little at Evelyn and looked back at Ella.

"He really likes to come out with an ever-changing ident.i.ty to observe the public. Sometimes and maybe, an old man who is selling flowers by the side of the road is him. I also don"t know why he has always been doing that for a long time, he never wanted to answer." Ella shook her head slightly, as clueless as Elysia.

Elysia still smiled a little but her mind began to think and Elena joined in the a.n.a.lysis, they refused to believe that the fact that a prominent figure has always disguised his ident.i.ty for a long time without reason.

Alexander Celestine had not appeared in public as a Pope for a long time, the public only considered him to be meditating and cultivating to reach divinity as a G.o.d.

In fact, the same person is often in public but with an ident.i.ty that is always changing but n.o.body knows. There must be some hidden reason why he did that, Elysia and Elena came to a mutual agreement in their swift minds.

"Mou~ You ignore me, I"ll scowl at you. You should comfort me a little as my best friend. I was tortured for three days because of waiting for you, you can come early and greet me." Evelyn no longer puffed out her cheeks and pouted like what she said.

"Oh my... It"s my fault, okay? Please forgive me. Don"t pout like that, your beauty will drop 20 percent. Tell me, what do I need to do to get your forgiveness?" Elysia immediately walked out of the press conference she had with Elena and immediately tried to make up with Evelyn.

Even though she knew Evelyn had been waiting for a week, she just found out that she seemed so agitated to feel alone at that moment. It seemed a bit over the top, but if Elysia considered it from Evelyn"s point of view and her clingy personality then it might really be the case.

"Mmm... I accept your sincere apology if you practice swords with me after this Deacon cla.s.s. You must accompany me until I am satisfied."

Evelyn was about to act tough at first and give a cute snort, but she didn"t have the heart to see Elysia"s worried face. The latter did look guilty and sincere, albeit with a somewhat absurd reason.

For some reason, she felt that her best friend would be taken over by Ella and she wanted to spend more time with Elysia.

"Sure. After this, we will practice with practice swords, until you are satisfied." Elysia smiled happily and Evelyn was happy too.

"Fufufu... The two of you are so close and familiar with each other. I feel jealous, can I be present in your sword training? You can use my private training ground and there is no need to return to the academy training field."

Ella held her hand in front with a playful smile, she wanted to be invited to play together. She had many friends and many people approached her whether male or female but none of them were close to her, unlike the friendship of her two junior girls.

"Of course, you can come with us, Ella. So, we can practice swordsmanship at your training ground together later. Sorry to trouble you in advance."

"No, Ely. It"s not a problem at all. You can train there as you please while in the cathedral." Ella waved her hands slightly in front.

Right now, Evelyn could only accept what Elysia had decided, she watched Ella while comparing to herself in her mind. She has admitted that she and Ella share some similarities in physical form but her heart says she is inferior to Ella.

Her heart also told her that she needed to train harder so as not to be left too far away from Elysia who is very talented and looks perfect in every way.

The feeling of inferiority she had left for a long time came back just because of Ella but for so many reasons she didn"t feel inferior to Elysia who was much more talented, she was happy instead.
