Chapter 1397: A Counterfeit
Lory licks an ice cream chocolate on a park bench while gazing at the gothic fountain with a statue of a goddess holding a vessel surrounded withdoves statue. It’s a stunning piece of architecture with elaborate carving and intricate details, making the park atmosphere feel calm and peaceful.
Children ran around, flying kites, and chasing animal holograms, and their laughter filled the whole park with joy. Meanwhile, Lory notice several people wearing white robes mingling with the residents sharing candy, snack and stuff.
Lory also saw Saintess posters displayed all over the streets, banners and flags of the S.A.I.N.T. organization placed on the sidewalks, and on the giant screen, the Saintess’ picture smiled brightly at her. One can imagine how much money they spent to promote the Saintess.
But still, the most important position in the city, called the Angel Boulevard, is occupied by the giant statue of Alexander Behrenn. Such a grand honor suit for the king and heroes, but alexander behrenn was none of that, he just a religious leader though it’s the largest religious organization in the world but still, it’s appropriated but no one dare to critisized, therefore it was clearly who got the biggest influence in this country.
"Hey, pretty girl, are you alone?"
Lory glanced under the hood of her car. "Aren’t you a little old to be picking up girls, now?"
Fargo pursed his lips. "Is there an age limit for that?"
Lory rolled her eyes. "It’s a matter of decency."
"Hey, no girl’s ever complained before," Fargo snorted and plopped down next to Lory, "Anyway, I still haven’t heard from Uncle Stephan, you know, when he go dark, he go DARK, we couldn’t even find him!"
"You know how careful Uncle Stephan is, besides if information about him in Wellington without official notice known, it will reflect badly on Harland’s image and with Luc’s condition we don’t have time to deal with that matter, and Uncle stephan know this." Lory finished her ice cream then wiped her hand with a tissue and threw it into the trash in front of her.
Lory checked her phone then closed it in disappointment and took a deep breath. Fargo knew what was bothering her, "Once they enter the underground Dungeon, the signal will be cut off, besides, the Dungeon is not like other Dungeons."
