That afternoon, in accordance with his arrangement with Castalia, Jiang Lu arrived at Elk Castle as promised.
Zeus said he'd take Huang Xiu'e to try some of Hypiriel's specialties. After making him swear that it was just for feeding, Jiang Lu then handed Huang Xiu'e over to him.
In the bishop's living quarters, Jiang Lu met with Castalia.
Castalia had just finished interviewing all the priests and had integrated the examiners' scores, so she was feeling quite tired at that moment.
Before Jiang Lu's arrival, she had just taken a bath, and she was now sitting on the couch in her silk pajamas with her damp hair draped over her shoulders, legs propped up, sipping on strong alcohol quietly waiting.
"Sit."
Castalia motioned to Jiang Lu with a smile.
And so, Jiang Lu sat down on the couch opposite her.
But this clearly wasn't what Castalia wanted.
"I mean, sit next to me."
"Such a hassle," Jiang Lu muttered as he got up to sit next to Castalia.
