Chapter 438: Do You Like Tearing Stockings?
Seraphina carefully folded the stockings she had taken off and placed them in the bag she carried with her, as if they were something extremely important.
Even this detail was just like Mirrorheart, and Loren felt he really needed to punish Mirrorheart. But so far, he still hadn't come up with a proper punishment.
"Let's head back..."
After seeing everyone home, Loren didn't even have time for dinner before heading straight to the Church.
Originally, the Church hadn't taken this matter very seriously. After all, Merfolk rarely came into contact with humans, and the few encounters they had were mostly as food. The legend that eating Merfolk flesh could prolong life was still quite widespread. Loren suspected the Church had deliberately spread that rumor to encourage people to hunt Merfolk.
As a result, people more or less looked down on Merfolk and basically never regarded them as a threat.
It wasn't until Loren proactively brought up the matter that the Church finally took it seriously.
"We'll immediately arrange the fastest train to take you there. His Holiness the Pope hasn't been around recently, so I'll have to accompany you myself..."
The speaker was the Bishop. Under his command, people moved swiftly—some went to adjust the train route, while others prepared to leave with Loren.
