Chapter 30
Bishop Elektra
West End, 49 West Vellas Street.
Using a mirror jump, Xia'er returned to the villa she rented in the West District, which wasn't too far from the Sodrak Palace of the Loen royal family.
If Arodes hadn't directly connected the two mirrors, Shael really wouldn't have dared to frequently and recklessly use mirror jumps in this area.
The Judge's approach has a strong sense of awareness of the territory it governs.
"Welcome back, Shael."
Arodes sent an Elvish rune through the spirit realm to express a warm welcome.
"Yes, thank you for your hard work."
Like taking off clothes, Xia Er dispelled the "possession of the vengeful spirit" and returned to being a novice Mystic at Sequence 9.
He didn't kill the two members of the Hedonistic Faction because werewolves and zombies were pretty useless; they could only be sold for some money. It was better to let the characteristics within these two guys be put to better use.
After taking over part of Steve's savings, Xia'er's wallet was filled again, and there was no end to her poverty in Sequence 5.
That should be enough for him to have some pocket money for a while.
"Begin today's evening prayers, then go to sleep. Creator of all things, all-knowing and all-powerful God, you are..."
After playing the role for a while, Xia Er went straight to wash up and go to bed. Sometimes he even forgot what he was playing. He was probably a Prayer Man, a mindless prayer machine that would pray to anyone.
the next day.
Alice got another free breakfast.
Then Xia Er remembered that he had driven the two hedonistic duo to the East District, and Alice lived there because it was cheaper and more convenient for missionary work.
He hadn't paid attention to that before.
"Alice, do you think it's possible that the werewolf who escaped last night might seek revenge on you?"
Xia Er knew that with him around, this kind of thing was unlikely to happen, but she still tried to scare the little girl.
"Does he dare to give it a try?"
"I passed the Inquisition's test, but I didn't end up going."
Alice narrowed her eyes upon hearing this. Backlund wasn't just home to one of the Eternal Sun Church's extraordinary beings; she was merely the youngest. Anyone who dared to cause her trouble would be met with a group beating.
"So, you know perfectly well that the East District is the territory of the Punishers, so why do you keep going there?"
Xia'er found it very interesting that both the Eternal Sun Church and the Aurora Society liked to stuff people into the East District, and even he himself was stuffing people into the East District.
"You're not happy that I'm preaching in the North District, which is under the night watchman's jurisdiction."
"The people living in the East District are the ones who need the sun the most. What use is the Storm Church? They can't even blow away the smog of Backlund."
Alice glanced at Shael, casually making a disparaging remark about the Storm Church, then, as if sharing a secret, looked around and whispered in Shael's ear:
"Furthermore, don't you feel a greater sense of accomplishment in converting believers who originally worshipped the Lord of Storms to our Lord?"
NTR??
Do you even know this?
Xia Er was taken aback. Could faith really be used like this?
Isn't that a bit distorted?
Oh no, I mean you guys actually have a faith.
"Alright, I'm going to preach now. If you need anything, have Martin come find me."
Alice, thinking of missionary work, jumped off her chair and hurriedly prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute, you don't even speak Rune, how are you going to preach?"
Xia Er grabbed the blonde girl and asked curiously.
"Who says I can't?"
"Praise the sun (in Ruen's language)."
Alice smiled confidently.
"The weather is so nice (Ruen's words)."
Chael replied.
"Praise the sun (in Ruen's language)."
Alice repeated it again.
That's all you've learned?
So you're seen as a mascot by your colleagues?
Xia'er understood; that meant they should treat the mascot...
He took out a few candies and put them in Alice's pocket. "You can eat them on the way."
"Thank you for your contributions to the development of the Eternal Sun Church."
Alice said something that made Xia'er's expression stiffen, and then she made a quick getaway.
"Young Master, the Viscount Grelint family is holding a cultural salon as is customary. Would you like to attend?"
Martin stepped forward and asked.
"Go ahead, why aren't you going?"
Xia Er planned to continue slacking off and wait for the night watchman to come and check the gas meter.
If you don't come, then continue going to school.
...
night.
Chael's spirituality was touched, and he was directly pulled into the dream world, appearing in the solemn and majestic St. Samuel's Church.
He was dressed in a black and red priestly robe, holding the Book of Revelation of the Night, and looked somewhat bewildered at the somewhat familiar-looking man in front of him.
He was also wearing a clergy robe, was about 40 years old, had deep blue eyes, a thin face, and gave people a very comfortable feeling.
"Bishop Elektra?"
Is this the true value of having connections?
To investigate other possible wild extraordinary individuals, send a Sequence 7 Nightmare through the process, and when it's his turn, send a Sequence 5.
"The mechanical heart has explained your situation to us."
"You've become an Extraordinary?"
"Bishop Elektra asked."
"Yes, as you know, the ingredients for Sequence 9 potions aren't that expensive."
Chael hadn't expected the bishop to be so direct, so he spoke frankly as well.
"If you want to become extraordinary, why not go through the church's channels?"
Bishop Elektra's voice carried a hint of reproach.
"My mother just wanted me to join the church, but she didn't want me to join the Night Watch squad."
Xia Er helplessly shrugged.
This is also true; the Maynard family, as core members of the New Party, are not short of money and are not particularly keen on having their children join the Night Watch.
In reality, although it wasn't explicitly stated, the majority of those on night watch were ordinary believers.
These ordinary believers in the Night Watch join the Night Watch, accumulate merits, and gain promotions and improved social status.
Few children of noble families join the church, let alone start from the bottom.
Moreover, it's dangerous for night watchmen.
They first served as assistants to priests who were close to the nobility, and then contributed to the daily operations of the church.
As long as they join the church, and these people are not short of money, they actually have many opportunities to become extraordinary.
According to the original career path, after graduating, Xia Er would first take on a respectable clerical job at St. Samuel's Church.
After officially joining the Church of the Night and no longer having to work at the grassroots level, I will get to know more things before considering promotion to an extraordinary position.
"You couldn't resist?"
Bishop Elektra asked with a hint of helplessness.
"I just... I just wanted to mix potions for fun, just to practice."
Seeing the bishop's helpless expression, Xia Er felt just as helpless. Why did he feel like he had eaten forbidden fruit?
"The Singer? The potion recipe and ingredients that little girl from the Church of the Eternal Sun sold you?"
Bishop Elektra had by then almost accepted it.
He knew that the concocted potion would have a magical effect on ordinary people, tempting the creatures around it to drink it.
"No, no, I held back the first time and fed it to my pet."
"Unfortunately, it didn't come back to life."
Chael mourned for the untimely death of the Sun Hound, and drew a crimson moon on his chest.
"Is there a second time?"
Bishop Elektra raised an eyebrow, a vague sense of foreboding creeping in.
"Yes, Mystic."
Xia Er tried to soften her tone, but she could still hear gasps of surprise.
