Joel always believed that he had incomparable talent. He was the man chosen by the gods.

But only now did he know that he was just a stone chosen by the fat knight.

He tried to escape, but Stanley\'s palm gripped his head like a pliers.

"Killing believers of the same origin is like killing their own people. They will be punished by the gods," Stanley said with emotion while holding Joel\'s head. "I prayed day and night and finally got God\'s understanding. He only put forward one condition to let you die with glory in front of him. Tell me, do you feel glory?"

Joel couldn\'t speak at all. Fear and despair made him lose his strength to breathe.

"It doesn\'t matter if you don\'t want to say it. Anyway, you\'ve said it many times." Stanley covered Joel\'s mouth, cut open his chest with a knife, and took out the freshly formed divine blood stone.

……

Manda had lived in the small black house of the castle in the picture for eight days. According to the agreement, Lulian could look at him in the hut. Don\'t talk, stay soon, won\'t have any contact, just take a look to see if Manda is still alive.

When she opened the door, a thick smell of dust came to her face. The room was dark. Manda seemed to have forgotten to light a candle.

Or maybe the candle had long gone out, and the dead Manda no longer needed the candle.

Lulian snapped her fingers, and a flame came out of her fingertips. By the light of the flame, she saw the empty room and the dusty bed.

She dipped her finger in a little dust and came up to her nose to smell it, as if she smelled the smell of dead bones.

"I really don\'t know who your God is," Lulian sighed. "The failure of promotion turned you into ashes."

Lulian left the room, closed the door, took out a piece of cotton cloth, stained it with some soup and put it on the door.

The door gradually became blurred and integrated with the gray wall until it disappeared.

She erased the room from the painting. It was a decent funeral for Manda and the best way to get out of trouble for Lulian.

Back in the room, Lulian recited a spell to turn the castle in the picture into a hanging picture again.

She selected several herbs from various medicine cans and put them into the medicine can. This can of soup medicine can erase all the memories related to Manda during this period.

"Goodbye, little guy. I\'ve known you. You bought herbs with Stanley and bought a witch\'s blouse from me. Then you disappeared. I don\'t know where you went. I\'ve never seen you again..."

Lulian came to the kitchen with the medicine can and saw Manda squatting next to the fire pond eating roast chicken.

"It\'s not easy to make a fuss when you\'re old," said Lulian, taking a deep breath and trying to keep calm. She went up and asked, "little guy, tell me why you\'re here?"

Manda wiped her mouth and said, "I always thought you deliberately gave me bad food. It turns out that the food you left yourself is so bad. Why don\'t you learn to cook? Can you really eat this kind of food?"

"These innocent days have wronged you. Can you tell me when you left the castle?" Lulian\'s smile is still charming, but she doesn\'t dare to get too close. She\'s not sure whether the person in front of her is Manda or whether he is a creature of the world.

"I woke up in the morning and peed in the garden. I happened to see you enter my room, so I took the opportunity to enter your kitchen."

"You pee in my garden?"

"It\'s not just peeing. I can\'t leave everything in the small room. There are no windows."

"Don\'t say such disgusting things again," it\'s true that Manda is a living man, and Lulian sits beside him. "Silent, you can deceive the witch\'s ears. It seems that you have succeeded in your promotion."

Manda got up, saluted on her chest and said, "thank the gods for their protection. I\'m already a second-class believer."

"Haven\'t you left anything important? I erased that room."

Manda frowned and said, "vicious woman, do you want to erase me?"

"Don\'t be so mean. I thought you were dead and there was only a pile of ashes left on your bed."

"Thanks to my early awakening, I climbed out of that pile of ashes."

After eating a chicken leg, Manda saluted again and said, "thank you for your care these days. Come to my tavern when you\'re free. I\'ll prepare good wine and food for you. I\'m talking about real food."

With that, Manda left Lulian\'s kitchen and jumped out of the courtyard wall without going through the door. The whole process was still silent.

"Lovely little fellow," Lulian smiled, "I can\'t guess who your God is."

Walking on the lanolin street, Manda greedily took a breath of the air full of mutton smell. Although it was pungent, the real taste made him feel more comfortable.

Wait a minute after the sacrifice. Why go out of the city? The location has been agreed with the coachman before.

Manda immediately opened her eyes, opened the curtain of the carriage and found that the carriage had come outside the city.

"Stop!" Manda shouted. "Where do you want to go?"

The coachman waved his whip hard, and the two horses who pulled the cart flew forward. Manda stared at the coachman for a while. When he got on the bus, he didn\'t pay attention to his appearance. He only remembered that he was wearing a broken hat and his hair was brown.

And now his hair turns red.
