The Record Of Barton's Fantastical Events

Chapter 147 - Alpha in the Gospel Church

Chapter 147: Chapter 16 Alpha in the Gospel Church

The eleven o’clock’s sunshine spread over the Gospel Church in the southern district of Barton. The black paint separated the metal cross attached to the door beam of the front yard of the church from the gray church building at the back; it was very eye-catching.

Amid the dispersing crowds and old minivans, a black ceremonial car moved in the opposite direction. The car was moving very slowly; the road here was not spacious, and the driver was not rude enough to honk the car horn here. People in the Southern District of Barton watched the car parked into the Gospel church curiously.

Benjamin pushed the car door open. After carefully identifying, the people who finally recognized him uttered, “Oh, Grande! Why did you shave your beard!”

Benjamin reluctantly touched the chin that had grown short stubble. His appearance would recover in a few days. It was just that from this morning, Benjamin discovered one thing that made him feel helpless, and that was the itching feeling!

Upon being reminded, the itch came out uncontrollably. Benjamin tilted his chin and scratched it. If he didn’t need to conform to the time it would take for the beard to grow normally, he would’ve used Alpha’s skin to quickly avoid this tormenting recovery process.

“Where is Joseph?” Benjamin asked.

“Inside.” The kind man pointed to the church, “Come to see Matthew?”

Benjamin nodded and walked inside. The porch was obviously replaced with a new one, and the door was rewashed and painted, but the table and chair facilities inside had not changed.

The Gospel Church in the Southern District was much larger than the Church of the Holy Child, but it was not necessary to have two floors like St Mary’s Church. The population of the Southern District was not large, most of them were farmers, and a small part of them lived in the northwest of the Southern District because they did not want to pay the price of an apartment near Ogier in the Northern District.

For example, today’s worship service obviously had a special meaning, but the last two rows were still empty.

Entering the gospel church, Benjamin saw the three people at the forefront who had finished their prayers.

Alpha’s gaze fell on his young wolf first, his shoulders slightly tightened, and he tried to maintain his breathing as calm as possible. Then there was Joseph who seemed to be excited, and finally the priest.

Benjamin frowned and looked at the priest whose collar seemed to be higher than usual. He had already smelled a faint trace of blood in the air, mixed with the demon’s scent that ordinary people could not perceive, floating out of the priest’s body.

The priest had already seen Alpha’s entry, just like ordinary clergymen who saw strangers entering the church, he gestured with a friendly smile, and then asked, “Hello, can I help you with anything?”

Benjamin was not Zach. He didn’t like to perform meaningless ‘plays’. He just raised his chin as a response, revealing his pink neck.

“Ben…” Matthew immediately noticed his father’s stern eyes, “Mr. Grande.” For Joseph, those who were willing to hire Matthew, who was fired from the job in the past, should be respected. Not to mention that the Grande House treated Matthew very well. During the days of injury and rest, Matthew often brought back Alice’s snacks for him.

Benjamin didn’t care about how he addressed him, smiled, and nodded to Joseph, explaining, “Our schedule has been pushed forward. So I came to pick up Matthew.”

“Oh.” Joseph patted Matthew on the back. “Go.”

Matthew was a very well-behaved young man. Apart from becoming a werewolf inexplicably and a bunch of non-human beings in the Grande family, he didn’t hide anything from his family. So his father knew the arrangement that he would go out with Grande’s friends in the afternoon. Grand’s friend referred to Lola Barton. Regardless of who Lola was, the point was ‘Barton’.

Benjamin smiled, looked at Matthew’s expression, turned his head, “Lola and Alice are waiting outside, we will send you back first.” Benjamin looked at the priest who had walked away again, and he still said to Matthew, “You can wait outside first. I just have some questions to ask the priest.”

Matthew nodded, letting go of the nervousness that had been raised just now. His Alpha was here, and all the worries were unnecessary.

The priest who had walked stopped, and again nodded to the believer Joseph, who was leaving, and looked at Benjamin with a smile, “I am happy to help.”

Benjamin pursed his lips. At this time, if Zach was there, he would be able to say a lot of nonsense until the church was completely empty, “Back.”

Benjamin walked toward the back of the church, and the priest shook his head helplessly.

“You made Matthew nervous, why.” Benjamin was very straightforward, and the two opened their mouths as soon as they walked past the side door of the church.

“Crowlie wants to expand the church.” The priest also almost figured out the temper of this Grande, very directly, “I told Joseph’s church recruitment news in advance.”

Benjamin thought for a while, “It’s too fast, If you don’t want to offend Grande, don’t rush to touch the people around us.”

The priest smiled helplessly, “We didn’t, and we haven’t disturbed you all these days. We didn’t even touch Constantine, you should be aware of our sincerity.” The priest looked at Alpha’s frowning eyebrows and added, “It is Joseph himself who wants to have a job. Whether I say it or not, he will know next week.” “What will happen next week.”

“The church application form will be sent out next week.” The priest smiled, “He will definitely submit the application, maybe you don’t know, but in my memory.” The priest pointed to his head, “Joseph did not miss a single church service.”

Benjamin looked at the priest and thought; the other party didn’t need to lie on this, “How long will the review take.”

The priest pursing his mouth revealed an expression as if he was in a predicament. He knew that Alpha needed time to figure out a way to prevent Joseph from joining the church; for example, finding a peculiar cure, a cure to heal an old injury or something. With a healthy body, the work of the church may not be so attractive.

“That is up to the church.” The priest looked at Alpha with a look of understanding, “No matter from which position, I can’t disclose it at will.”

Benjamin didn’t mind the answer, he just glanced at the priest, “Fine, I will leave it to you to figure it out.”

The priest shook his head helplessly, regretting telling that information too early. It seemed that he had to tell Crowlie about this.

“You are hurt.” Benjamin already had the intention to leave, Lola and the others were still waiting, “What happened.”

The priest subconsciously held his collar with his hand. As expected, it was still discovered by Alpha. But the priest shook his head. This time he had no expression. He seemed to have received instructions long ago, knowing what to say, “Yes, but the content shouldn’t be told by me. Crowlie has arrangements.”

“Arrangement?” Benjamin’s body, which had already turned around, stopped and looked back at the priest. He had just asked casually, but he didn’t expect this kind of answer.

The priest stopped talking, he bowed, and left.

Benjamin frowned. Sigh, only Zach was good at this kind of thing.
