Chapter 73 – Here it is!

Karun sat on the sofa in the living room of Younis's house, with red tea and exquisite tea snacks in front of him. Younis sat diagonally across from him.

She was wearing a blue plum-patterned long skirt today, with her hair naturally draped, showing a natural and gentle beauty.

Thinking back to the first time they met when she wore a black long skirt, and now, she was actually consciously choosing her clothes based on the distance between them.

The style was becoming more and more natural and easy-going.

"You're dressed so formally today. After my mom saw you, she went back to her room to change clothes." Younis covered her mouth and laughed.

This was actually a kind of inquiry.

"Because today is the anniversary of the passing of one of my elders, I went to attend his memorial service, and then I was too lazy to go home and change clothes, so I came straight here."

Karun meant that dressing so formally today was actually a casual thing.

At this time, Mrs. Jenny came out, wearing a formal dress.

"Karun, we have already booked the tickets for the ship."

"Thank you, Madam." Karun stood up and thanked her.

"Don't be polite. It's only natural. Our family also knew that you would come to visit, so we have made preparations."

"Thank you for your kindness and the kindness of your family. However, there is one thing. I may need a few more tickets because I have a few friends who need to go to Vienna with me."

"No problem, we have enough tickets. I booked a hall on the third floor of the ship with ten rooms in total. Um... Will it be enough?"

"It will be enough, Madam. Two servants, a cat, and a dog will also be coming with me."

"Oh, Karun, you are such a kind child. I have always told Younis that people who love pets are kind-hearted, aren't they?"

Karun also smiled and agreed.

What he liked was not the pets. That cat was your ancestor; that dog was a newly sealed evil god.

I wonder if Mrs. Jenny can still say, "Oh, you are so kind," after knowing the true identity of these two pets.

Karun did not inquire too much about the Allen family, nor did he ask about the details of his future residence. Although Mrs. Jenny tried several times to explain to show their thoughtfulness and consideration, it was difficult for her to speak out because Karun was not enthusiastic about responding.

Because, for Karun, going to Vienna was the main purpose. As for whether he could live comfortably or stay for a long time in the Allen family, he actually didn't have much obsession.

Because he was not in a situation where he had no other way out and had to come to the Allen family with a marriage contract.

He couldn't bear this grievance himself.

Of course, Dis would not allow his grandson to suffer this grievance. Otherwise, he would not have prepared so much in advance.

Most importantly, he was not a rootless vagabond, he was a person with a home.

When he said goodbye, Mrs. Jenny stayed in the house, and Younis escorted Karun to the gate of the courtyard.Karun opened his arms and Yunes leaned forward slightly, and the two of them embraced each other with perfect harmony and rhythm.

Hmm, Yunes' hair has a faint lavender scent.

Karun couldn't help but take a deep breath and also rubbed his nose against her neck.

"It's itchy..."

"Hehe."

"I'll come pick you up tomorrow."

"Mm, I'll wait for you."

Karun got in the car, and Yunes stood in the yard, watching Karun leave.

What she didn't know was that after Karun drove away, he quickly stopped at the door of a man's house.

Piajie's door habitually remained open, so Karun walked in directly.

The living room was messy, with leftover food and plates with stains, and no one had cleaned up.

Piajie was lying on the sofa, snoring loudly, with a stack of thick coins under his head, estimated to be worth forty to fifty thousand.

He wore a suit on his upper body and riding pants on his lower body, and his hair was messy and disheveled.

It was clear that he was exhausted.

Karun silently put all the garbage in bags, put away the plates and cutlery, and put them in the kitchen sink, turning on the tap.

Then he picked up a broom and swept the living room. After sweeping, he mopped the floor with a mop.

Piajie had been sleeping all the time and was completely unaware.

Karun then entered the kitchen and cleaned all the dishes and utensils in the sink. When he was arranging them, he noticed a pot of coffee on the stove.

He touched it with his hand and found that it was still warm.

Karun poured himself a cup and took a sip, his expression suddenly freezing.

"Hmm?"

Karun was a little puzzled and surprised as he poked his head out of the kitchen, looking at Piajie who was still sleeping on the sofa, and then at the coffee in his hand.

After drinking the coffee, Karun called for paper and pen and left a short note for Piajie:

We are "pawread dot com", find us on google.

"I didn't have the heart to wake you up while you were sleeping so soundly, so I cleaned up your pigsty for you. Perhaps you should consider hiring two maids to take care of your life."

After hesitating for a moment, Karun added another sentence:

"Thank you for the coffee you prepared for me. It was delicious."

...

The next day, in the afternoon.

"Auntie, you don't have to prepare such a sumptuous meal." Karun leaned against the wall outside the kitchen and watched his aunt and auntie busy inside.

Today, he, the "chef" of the family, had been deprived of the right to use the kitchen, and Mary, his aunt, and Winnie, his auntie, had taken over the responsibility of preparing dinner.

"It's Yunes' birthday. How can we not prepare something good?" Mary said.

"But it shouldn't be more grand than Auntie's birthday. She is younger than you," Karun replied.

Upon hearing this, Mary reached out and flicked Karun's nose, laughing, "Why compare the elder and younger generations? Of course, the best should be given to the younger generation."Actually, the toast from Dis on her own birthday was already the best gift she could ask for.

Because Dis was the person she respected the most, and in the Inmoleis family, he was a spiritual totem.

"Karun, instead of standing here, why don't you go change your clothes and pick up Miss Eunice?"

"Yes, Auntie. I'll do as you say."

Karun went upstairs to the bedroom, where he saw two cards lying on the desk, which were given to him by Lunt last time.

One was "Moonlight Purification," which could dispel all negative attribute magic effects.

The other was "Shadow Guardian," which summoned a black figure to accompany him.

Karun put these two cards away and inserted them into the book "Light of Order."

After changing into a more casual outfit, Karun went downstairs with two keys in his hand. In the end, he chose the hearse between the hearse and Alfred Santeran at home.

He didn't need to attract the girl's attention in any special way at this point.

He just felt that he would not have many opportunities to drive or ride in a hearse in the future, so he wanted to experience it more while he still could.

Twenty minutes later, Karun arrived at Eunice's house in the hearse. Under Mrs. Jenny's round and staring eyes, he picked up Eunice and took her into the hearse.

This time, Mrs. Jenny did not choose to come along.

On the way back home, Karun apologized, "I'm sorry, I'm driving this car."

"It's okay. I know you didn't treat me as an outsider when you drove this car over here because this car carries your nostalgia for home."

"Thank you."

...

When they returned home, Karun found another car parked at the door, which was Piajie's car.

As Karun led Eunice into the living room, he saw Piajie sitting on the sofa, engrossed in reading the coffin brochure. Uncle Mason was sitting next to him, still introducing him.

"Karun, you're back." Uncle Mason saw Karun and said, "Mr. Adams has been waiting for you for a long time."

"Hey, Karun." Piajie greeted Karun warmly, then pointed to the brochure, "Mr. Mason, please help me order this elegant, restrained, calm, wise, calm, light wind coffin."

"Really, Mr. Adams?" Uncle Mason was extremely shocked.

Although these two coffins had always been placed in the top position of the brochure, they were actually just like illustrations, meant to enhance the style. In fact, it was really difficult to sell them, and it was even unlikely that they would be sold.

"Yes, I want it. But you need to send it directly to my house."

"Okay, I have a discount here. Let me calculate it for you..."

"You can just calculate it. Just tell me the final price, and I'll send you a check."

"Okay, Mr. Adams, so you're planning to use this coffin...""Oh, I plan to use it for my nap. I think it's more comfortable than the sofa at home."

"Um... okay."

Piajie walked up to Karun and then looked at Unis:

"Congratulations, Miss. You have chosen an excellent partner. I believe that in the future, you will feel fortunate and wise for your current choice."

Unis smiled modestly and said, "I will."

Piajie then looked at Karun and took the initiative to give him a hug, patting his back with both hands:

"I'm sorry. I went to bed right after I got back yesterday."

"I understand. No problem."

"Hmm, is there a party today?"

"It's Unis's birthday."

"Oh, okay." Piajie adjusted his tie and then pointed to himself with both hands. "So, I..."

Karun didn't say anything.

Piajie blinked his eyes and then blinked again;

Karun still didn't say anything.

Unis spoke up, "Mr. Adams, may I have the honor of inviting you to my birthday party?"

"Oh, of course, of course. I am honored."

After speaking, Piajie rolled his eyes at Karun.

"This is my uncle, Mason." Karun made a formal introduction to Unis.

"I'm sorry, Miss Unis. When you and your mother visited our house last time, we happened to be out. I'm really sorry."

"It's okay. You're too kind."

"I'll take you to meet my aunt and my mother."

Karun took Unis's hand and went upstairs. When they reached the second floor, Aunt Mary and his mother had already taken off their aprons, wiped their hands, and were standing there with a smile.

"This is Aunt Mary."

"Hello, Aunt Mary."

"Hello."

"This is Aunt Winnie."

"Hello, Aunt Winnie."

"Hello."

Aunt Mary said quickly, "Dinner is ready and we can start the banquet in a while."

"Thank you, Aunt Mary and Aunt Winnie, for your hard work."

"It's our pleasure."

Maybe because of his own special reasons, Karun didn't feel it, and Unis didn't behave this way when she was a teacher, but when she faced social activities, she would naturally reflect the habits of attending social occasions at home.

It was not intentional isolation, but it was how she had always been, plus she was a bit nervous now.

You should know that Puerh even despised her family for having fallen so far as to accompany the old lady of the royal family for afternoon tea;

But even so, this aristocratic etiquette that was infiltrated in her bones still made Aunt Mary and Aunt Winnie instinctively nervous and restrained.

In Aunt Mary's view, the aura of this Miss Unis was much stronger than that of the little stars she had encountered before.

Karun said to Unis, "Let's go upstairs first."

"Okay."

"Yes, you go upstairs first. Mina and the others are upstairs." Aunt Mary hurriedly said.Karun took Yunis to the third floor where Mina, Lunt, and Chris were already waiting. They didn't have to go to school during winter break.

When Yunis arrived, Mina took the initiative to greet her, "Hello, sister."

Lunt also stepped forward, "Hello, teacher."

Chris greeted her as well, "Hello, sister."

"Karun, the gifts I prepared are still in the car. I have prepared gifts for everyone, and my mother helped me pick them out," Yunis said.

"It's okay, let Lunt go down and get them," Karun said, putting his hand in his pocket. Huh? The key to the hearse seemed to have fallen down.

At this moment, a golden retriever came up carrying a bunch of keys, stood up on its hind legs, opened its mouth, and looked at Karun.

Seeing that Karun didn't reach out to take it, the retriever ran to Lunt and spit the keys out in front of him. Then it happily ran back to Yunis, crouched down, and stuck out its tongue.

"It's so obedient and smart," Yunis couldn't help but stroke the retriever's head.

The cat-faced person on the windowsill remained serious.

"Should we push this dog into the sea on the boat to Wien?"

"Or put some poison in its food tonight?"

"Or steal Mina and Chris's underwear and put it in its kennel?"

Karun led Yunis to Dis's study.

"Knock... knock..."

"Come in."

Dis was sitting there wearing the sweater that his Aunt Winnie had knitted for him.

"Grandpa," Yunis greeted Dis.

"Um, hello."

Karun sat opposite Dis's desk with Yunis.

Dis looked at Yunis and said, "I wish you both happiness forever."

"Thank you, Grandpa."

"I also believe in my grandson. He is a responsible person. In fact, all the men in our Inmolei family are very responsible for their families. He is a person worth entrusting."

"I think so too, Grandpa."

"I hope you will always feel this way," Dis smiled gently. "I also hope that you will always be willing to rest your head on his shoulder."

Dis picked up his teacup and said, "Well, that's all I have to say. Please give my regards to your grandfather and father. Tell them that Dis Inmolei always remembers our friendship."

"Okay, Grandpa. I will convey your message. My grandfather and father have always cherished the friendship with the Inmolei family."

Karun left the study with Yunis. As the study door closed, Dis's smile disappeared.

"In fact, even if they forget, it doesn't matter."

...

The dinner began.

Aunt Mary and Aunt Winnie prepared a table of Chinese food they learned from Karun. They had learned it very well.

The theme at the beginning was naturally Yunis's birthday. After Yunis blew out the candles on the cake, everyone cheered.

Afterwards, the atmosphere of the dinner became more lively. After Dis left the table, Alfred kept adjusting the music with his radio, and everyone began to dance and interact freely.What the crowd didn't notice was that Dis had been standing at the staircase on the third floor for a long time, listening to the commotion below.

...

When the music stopped and the guests dispersed, Karun arrived on the third floor.

He saw Puerh prostrating on the windowsill, looking forlornly at the night sky outside.

Karun reached out and touched Puerh's back.

In fact, the best place to touch a cat is on its back because it has more flesh and thicker fur.

Puerh didn't move and let Karun stroke her.

"Aren't you supposed to be taking Yunis home?"

"I asked her to wait a little longer."

"What's there to wait for?"

"Because there's one more person who hasn't had his birthday cake yet."

Karun placed a complete small cake with a candle on it in front of Puerh and lit the candle with a lighter, humming softly:

"Happy birthday to you..."

Looking at the birthday cake in front of her and listening to the birthday wishes in her ear, Puerh's amber-like cat eyes were instantly covered with a thick mist.

"Thank you, Lord of the Unholy who is not an evil god."

...

Last night, everyone in the family celebrated until late, and the mess in the dining room and kitchen was not cleaned up that night.

In the morning, Dis, dressed in a priest's robe, walked downstairs.

At the entrance of the first floor, he saw Karun sleeping on the sofa.

Dis walked over and pushed Karun awake.

Karun opened his eyes and sat up.

"You slept here last night?"

"Yes, I was too tired to go upstairs after taking Miss Yunis home, so I fell asleep here."

"Don't sleep here, you'll catch a cold."

"Okay, Grandpa, I got it."

"After the clock strikes twelve noon, go to my study and read a book."

"Okay, I got it."

"Well, then I'm going to the church. The believers should be waiting for me."

Dis opened the living room door and walked out.

Karun stood up and shouted at the door:

"Grandpa, do you remember what you promised me?"

Dis stopped and turned around, looking at Karun.

"Your aunt and your cousin's cooking skills, judging from yesterday, still have some way to go compared to yours.

So, I'll come back and call you out of the study to make dinner.

Most importantly,

how can a grandfather break his promise to his grandson?"

...

"Dong...dong...dong..."

The church bell rang, accompanied by the clock on the third floor of the Inmores' house.

"May the merciful Lord be with you. Praise the Almighty Lord."

"Praise the Almighty Lord."

"Praise the Almighty Lord."

The believers followed the movements of Father Dis in prayer, then walked out of the church in order.

Dis stood on the platform, packing up his things.

At this time, with the departure of the believers, a group of priests in black robes began to enter from all directions;

On the periphery, there was also a group of priests in red standing on the high floors of various buildings, spreading their arms, and the rhythm of the formation was gradually fluctuating and beginning to reach a consensus.There is still more in the invisible location beyond what can be seen.

Lasma walked up the stairs and entered the church, stepping into the center.

He was the high priest of the Order of the Gods and had great authority in the secular hierarchy of the Order.

Behind Lasma, three figures had also appeared.

Lasma opened his arms,

And the three temple elders behind him also crossed their hands in front of their chests.

Outside,

The black-robed clergy, the red-robed clergy on the high buildings in the distance, and even in the shadows and in many unimaginable places in the city;

Everyone crossed their hands in front of their chests.

Lasma chanted, "Praise the Order."

"Praise the Order."

"Praise the Order."

The praise of the Order surrounded the city of Roja, and even the slightly gloomy sky seemed to clear up a bit.

Dis continued to neatly arrange the things on the table,

Then he walked out from behind,

Standing in the center of the stage with his hands crossed in front of his chest,

And said:

"Praise the Order of the whore-raised God of Order."
