Bringing Culture to a Different World

Chapter 150

A young girl who seemed to be only twelve years old was complaining and wailing nonstop before a stone pillar in the prayer hall. Standing behind her were two fully armed templars.

These two nearly 1.9 meters tall templars were grabbing the girl’s legs. They seemed to want to drag her out from the prayer hall.

Messai was standing on the side and watching all of this. Logically, her sense of justice would not allow her to stand there while two knights bullied a little girl.

But, a large amount of cracks had appeared on the stone pillar the little girl was grabbing onto. Her fingers were also inserted into the stone pillar. It was as if the stone pillar was made out of cheese.

“Cheryl! Do not be rude! You are the only inquisitor that survived this mission! You must return to the Heresy Tribunal and resume your post!”

There was a priest inside the prayer hall shouting at the little girl with a strict tone.

Messai found it difficult to believe that a little girl so short that she didn’t even reach her chest would be an inquisitor from the Heresy Tribunal.

In terms of their position in the church, the little girl, as an inquisitor, might possess even higher status than her, a veteran templar.

Apart from the Archbishop Desireless, no one in Norland’s tiny chapel should be able to order the little girl around.

But, Desireless was the person who ordered for her to return to the Nation of the Holy Church.

The templars were currently implementing Desireless’s order. But, this inquisitor was resisting them. She was acting like even if they were to beat her to death, she would still not take half a step out from this place.

Faced with the templar’s unswerving attitude, the little girl called Cheryl seemed to have realized that her words would serve no effect on the templars.

Because of that, she immediately escaped from the two templars’ restriction and ran over to Messai.

“Messai! Little Messai... no, I mean to say big sister Messai! I’ve opened close to ten card packs for you these past two weeks, isn’t that right? Your ranking also managed to reach the top twenty!”

Like an pestering eccentric, the little girl circled Messai back and forth. From time to time, she would rub herself at Messai’s hand like a little girl asking for a christmas gift.

Faced with Cheryl’s fawning behavior, Messai’s mouth twitched slightly. But, she managed to uphold her dignity as the commander of the templars and kept the cold expression on her face.

It was so much that she ended up closing her eyes. She decided not to look at this little girl who seemed to be in so much sadness that she was about to cry.

“At least! At least take into consideration that I’ve opened Ragnaros the Firelord, such a powerful legendary card for you! Let me stay in this place for a bit longer!”

Cheryl revealed her final trump card. Her words caught the attention of all the templars present. They all turned their eyes to their commander Messai.

Messai took a deep breath. She seemed to be having some sort of mental struggle. In the end, the creed of the Ecclesiastical Templars and the canon of the Nation of the Holy Church won.

“Lady Cheryl, you will be able to have a lot of opportunities to visit this city again after your return to the Heresy Tribunal. There is no reason for you to be this reluctant to leave.”

Messai spoke to the little girl with an extremely formal tone.

“Please return to the Holy City under the escort of the Ecclesiastical Templars.”

As Messai said those words, the two templars walked over and pulled Cheryl’s hands. This time around, they were using magic. No matter how powerful the strength this inquisitor had, she was unable to struggle free.

“Messai! You’ve entrapped me! You’ve clearly told me that you’ll help me out once per a legendary card I opened for you! Ahhhh!!! You liar!”

With the two templars grabbing onto her hands and how small she was, Cheryl was simply unable to break free.

The two templars effortlessly carried away the pitiful little girl by lifting her up from the ground.

Cheryl kicked her legs violently in the air. She was struggling to break free from the two templars. At the same time, she was shouting all kinds of strange words.

“You big liar! Return me my Rag! I’ve spent an entire year worth of savings to obtain that card! Give me back my Ragnaros!”

“...”

After hearing those words, Messai took out a sack of gold coins from within her armor and handed it to the priest.

“Consider this Lady Cheryl’s travel expenses,” said Messai.

“Wow! You damned swindler! How could that amount of money be enough to open a new Ragnaros?!”

Seeing how the little girl was resisting, Messai turned her head around. Even after she was dragged out from the prayer hall, Messai was still able to hear her screams.

“Messai, I curse you! You shall never open another legendary card...”

Even though an entire door was separating them, the grievance contained in Cheryl’s words filled the entire chapel.

“So terrifying! Was Lady Inquisitor affected by something?”

After Cheryl was brought away, the priest began to pray to the image of their god nonstop.

From how hysterical the inquisitor appeared earlier, he can only imagine that she was being led astray by some sort of evil.

“Lady Messai, what is the Ragnaros the Firelord the inquisitor spoke of?”

The priest remembered hearing a very powerful title when Cheryl started babbling crazy nonsense.

“Ehh... this had nothing to do with you. Make sure to take care of her properly. Don’t let her escape again.”

Messai has no words to describe her current emotions.

Ever since the inquisitor Cheryl returned to normal, she has been following Messai to the Hearthstone Tavern for two weeks. Originally, there weren’t a lot of people among the Ecclesiastical Templars who were able to interact with Messai about Hearthstone.

But, Cheryl showed great interest in Hearthstone.

Because of that, Messai gained a ‘younger sister’ that was actually much older than her...

Unfortunately, happy days will never last forever. After two weeks passed, Norland transnational teleportation gates had finished charging. They were able to be used again.

Even though Cheryl has been an active little girl the past two weeks, her real identity was still an inquisitor of the Holy Church.

The inquisitors were extremely scarce existences among the Holy Church. Thus, the Holy Church would not give up on any of them.

It was finally the day for her to return to the Holy City. Messai had thought that Cheryl would return to the Holy City, the Lord’s embrace, with glory and happiness...

But, to her surprise, she refused to leave. If it wasn’t for Desireless using a sacred technique to suppress her powers, the templars stationed here would likely not be able to bring back this inquisitor to the Holy City.

What if... they demand for her to return one day too?

Cheryl’s hysterical words were still echoing in Messai’s ears. Messai was stained in Norland for the World Expo.

It has been two weeks since the World Expo ended. One day, she will definitely be called back to the front line of the battle against the demons again.

If it was back when she first came to Norland, Messai will definitely pick up her sword and return to the battlefield gloriously.

But, at this point, she was feeling at a loss as to what to do should it come to that.
