Sure enough... after changing into clothes appropriate for her status, the Old grandpa and the uncle who came in first to talk both paused when they saw her, then bowed and greeted her.
When Bell called them in, Ellie noticed that a group of people were standing outside, but only the Old grandpa and the uncle from last night came in.
The room the Theocracy had allocated to her was not large, and it would be quite inappropriate for all those people to crowd in.
"Your Royal Highness Princess Elizabeth, I apologize for this rude intrusion." The Old grandpa said to her very respectfully.
Speaking of which, it was strange... Ellie had thought it was odd last night. The Six Scriptures should be very, very high-ranking figures in the Slane Theocracy, right? Logically, there was no need for them to be so respectful to her, a princess. Perhaps it was because she held their lifeline?
Hmm? Speaking of which... Ah!!! That's right! She had forgotten, hadn't she promised to restore their climate? How could she have forgotten this after a night's sleep? No wonder they all came to find her so early in the morning.
Ugh... She had originally wanted to make things difficult for them, but what they were going to say next would definitely be about this matter. Since she had already promised them, she couldn't make things difficult for them anymore, otherwise wouldn't she become a petty person who went back on her word? That was not the proper conduct for a princess of a nation.
"Old grandpa, you've come to see me about the weather, haven't you?" Ellie was too lazy to waste any more words with them. If that was the case, then let's get straight to the point!
It was also a good opportunity to showcase the might of the Magic Kingdom in front of these old geezers, how could she neglect it!
"Precisely, this old man's intrusion into Princess Elizabeth's rest is indeed for this matter. Please forgive Your Royal Highness." The Old grandpa said.
"It's fine, it's fine. I promised to do it anyway, and such abnormal weather must have caused you a lot of trouble. It's best to resolve it as soon as possible. It's better to restore it directly before it causes major impact!" Ellie said, then stood up directly.
Of course... Ellie didn't intend to cast Sky Transformation directly in the room. She had to find a place with many people, the more people who saw it, the better!
But! First, a disclaimer! She was not some pervert who got happier the more people watched her. She simply wanted to demonstrate the power of the Magic Kingdom!
Seeing Ellie stand up, those two old geezers also understood Ellie's meaning and quickly stood up as well, directly making way. Ellie also glanced at Bell, signaling her to open the door, as she was going out.
Bell was also clever and immediately understood her meaning, running directly to open the door. After all, she was a princess now, and she still needed to maintain her dignity, even if it was troublesome.
After Bell opened the door, the other High Priests all smiled and bowed respectfully to her. Ellie also put on a very impressive demeanor and walked out.
How to describe it?
This feeling... it was a little secretly satisfying. Watching these high-ranking officials of the Theocracy bow to her, although she knew they must be a million times unwilling in their hearts, Ellie just liked the feeling of them being very unhappy but unable to do anything about her.
Walking out of her dormitory door, those high-ranking officials of the Theocracy also followed. Outside, many members of the Black Scripture squad were also guarding.
Oh ho! Even the Black Scripture had been called over? It seems these people from the Theocracy are quite afraid of anything happening to her! Or rather? Were these people called to guard outside because they were afraid she would cause some other trouble?
However, besides these few people, there was no one else. After all, only the Black Scripture and people like Bell who had permission could come to this nearby dormitory.
So naturally there were no other people. This, of course, wouldn't do! It was a rare opportunity for her to show off a little in front of people, how could just these few spectators be enough?
"Uh! No, it won't work." But Ellie still pretended to raise her hand, striking a pose as if to cast a spell, then put it down again, saying with a confused expression.
"Eh? Is something wrong?" The Old grandpa's face immediately turned green. He probably misunderstood, thinking it couldn't be restored. Don't worry.
"No, the location is wrong. If I cast it here, the coverage area won't be right, and some corners might not be covered, which wouldn't be good." Ellie gave an explanation, of course, a made-up one.
"In that case, can you cast it at the place where you cast it yesterday?" The Old grandpa suggested.
There yesterday? That was the Temple... a place with even more rules than here, and even fewer people. How could that work? But she remembered that to get to the Temple, she had to pass by the training ground where she had previously gone on an expedition with the Fire Extinguishing Scripture. Let's go check there first! If there were many people there, she could just say that place would be fine.
"Alright! Let's go there!" So Ellie nodded in agreement.
So Ellie walked proudly in front again, followed by Bell, then the High Priests, and finally the Black Scripture members. Taking this group of people on a tour, honestly, it was indeed a little... satisfying.
Sure enough, when passing by the training ground, Ellie saw many attendants nearby shoveling snow, and quite a few people were shoveling snow on the training ground, and there were also many monk soldiers lining up, not knowing what they were planning to do, but that many people should be enough.
"Hmm? Wait a moment!" So Ellie pretended as if she had sensed something, stopped, then looked at the sky, then looked around, and then went directly towards the training ground.
But as soon as they saw Ellie hurrying towards the training ground, several unnamed High Priests of the Scriptures behind her nervously rushed after her.
"Your Royal Highness Elizabeth, what are you going to do?" Ellie still remembered the Chief Priest who came up to stop her. Wasn't it Dominic, the Chief Priest of the Windflower Scripture, who went to the Empire with her last time?
"There's no need to go to the Temple. I can cast it nearby here. After all, the Temple is your Slane Theocracy's forbidden ground. I am no longer your Clementine, and it doesn't seem right for an outsider like me to enter your forbidden ground! So, nearby here will also be fine." Ellie replied thus. An excuse, wasn't it just something to find casually? Hmph hmph! Anyway, the initiative was in her hands.
