Joshua had already left. Cheryl took the two contracts and went to the second floor of the Mage Tower.
This place was much more spacious than the first floor. The sunlight pouring down from the windows on both sides fell in the middle of the second floor. Through the sunlight, Cheryl could see the dust floating in the air and the Owl’s feathers.
Following the trajectory of the feathers, Cheryl saw her best friend, sister Denise.
The nun was kneeling on the ground with her hands clasped together and her eyes closed. She was praying.
There was a rule in the land of saints that every nun had to spend about an hour every day praying to the gods.
“Denise, this is Nolan, not the land of saints. No one will care if you pray every day.”
Cheryl walked to Denise’s side. It was the first time she had reminded her friend where she was.
“But... This is my duty.”Denise opened her eyes and looked up. Cheryl’s face was reflected in her blue pupils.
