There is a big problem with dreams in this world Chapter four hundred and seventy-ninth: Why would a group of evil spirits be summoned as a decent pope!
Chapter four hundred and seventy-ninth: Why would a group of evil spirits be summoned as a decent pope!
"Well, this outfit is still comfortable." Lu Qing looked at herself in the mirror and nodded with satisfaction.
Since formal training is about to begin, the princess costume must not be worn anymore. After all, the princess costume is good-looking, but its practicality is much worse.
As for how to explain the clothes on her body...
There are magic props in this world, and she is a princess, so it makes sense to have a space storage prop on her body.
Well, it's very reasonable, and even if the Pope has any doubts in his heart, he won't say it out loud.
"It feels like something is missing..."
Looking around, Lu Qing saw the crown on the table, and a hint of understanding appeared on her face.
"From today on, this crown is yours. You must keep it carefully and never throw it away at any time, because it is a symbol of your identity. Do you understand?"
I recalled the Queen's instructions in my mind. Although I couldn't see what the purpose of this crown was, but...
Her identity in this dream world is that of a princess, and it is even written in the title of the dream world.
[The Psychic Princess and the Forest of Ashes]
This identity should be more than just a random backstory.
Thinking of this, Lu Qing picked up the crown and put it on her head.
Looking at the mirror again at this time, even though she had changed her clothes, the crown on her head did not look out of place at all.
"Well, I feel comfortable now." Lu Qing put her hands on her hips and smiled slightly.
After leaving the room and walking down the stairs, Charles had already woken up and was sitting in the room boiling water.
Looking at Lu Qing's outfit with some surprise, Char said: "Good morning, Your Royal Highness."
"Good morning, Uncle Charles." Lu Qing greeted politely.
"Yes." Charles nodded, and then said: "The Pope and Knight Myron are already waiting for you outside the door."
"Okay, I understand."
After Lu Qing finished speaking, she walked towards the door. Just when she was about to open the door, Char remembered something again and said:
"Oh, by the way, help me tell the two people outside the door that breakfast will be ready in about an hour. Don't forget to come back for dinner."
"Um."
Nodding, Lu Qing said that she remembered, then opened the door and walked out.
As soon as she walked out of the house, the icy wind and snow howled and hit her face. Lu Qing looked into the distance and found that the Pope and Knight Myron were sitting next to a bonfire chatting.
"Good morning, Your Highness Princess."
Seeing Lu Qing coming to the campfire, the Pope stood up and said hello.
"Good morning." Lu Qing nodded.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess has good physical fitness." Knight Myron thought as he looked at Lu Qing who was unmoved in the cold wind.
But at this time, the cold wind blew, and there was not even a red spot on her body.
In addition to physical fitness, Her Royal Highness's swordsmanship is also very good, which can be seen from the swordsmanship competition with Knight Salo a few days ago.
"It would be a waste to not be a knight with such a good talent." Knight Myron thought with some pity.
Suddenly, a bold idea came to his mind.
Is there a possibility that while the princess is exercising and learning swordsmanship, she can also learn the skills of using [psychic]?
The more Knight Myron thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible. He planned to go to the Pope to discuss it tonight, otherwise it would be a pity to waste such a good talent.
The Pope didn't know that Meron was planning to let Her Royal Highness the Princess practice physical education.
At this time, he was organizing the words in his mind, thinking about where it would be better to start.
"Your Highness, do you believe in the power of the heart?" the Pope asked.
"The power of the heart?"
Seeing that the Pope had been brewing for a long time before Lu Qing came up with such a sentence, Lu Qing almost thought that she had heard wrongly.
After thinking for a while, she asked: "Are you talking about spiritual power?"
"Haha, just take it as such." The Pope smiled softly and did not mean to explain, but began to explain to her the use of [channeling].
"If you want to use [Psychic], you first need to have a certain level of mental power, and the main way to improve your mental power is meditation."
"As for how to meditate, I will teach you this in the evening, so don't worry now."
The Pope said, taking out a piece of wood with a smooth surface from his arms.
"You need to practice carving now."
"engraving?"
Lu Qing looked at the wooden board in the Pope's hand with confusion, wondering what the connection was between [channeling] and carving.
"This is similar to the wooden masks carved when people die, but our wooden masks are not carved for the dead, but for the souls," the Pope explained.
Lu Qing knew about carving wooden masks for people. She had read a lot of books in order to understand the common sense of the world.
According to the customs of this world, people have to be buried after death. Before burial, they usually find some skilled carving masters to carve out wooden masks of the deceased's face.
The reason for this is to prevent a creature called a face changer.
Legend has it that this creature will replace the dead person's face after death, making other people in the world forget the deceased.
In order not to be forgotten, people carved wooden masks exactly like the face of the deceased, so that the face-changing spirit replaced the wooden mask.
Of course, this is just a legend. No one knows whether face-changing spirits really exist. It has become a custom to just carve wooden masks for the dead.
"A mask carved for the soul?" Lu Qing asked with some confusion as she recalled the books she had read these days.
"That's right."
The Pope nodded, and then said: "People with [Psychic] skills are not very strong in fighting ability. Our fighting method mainly relies on the souls we recover."
"These souls usually need some carrier, and this carrier must be related to the recovered soul."
"Actually, the tradition of carving wooden masks for the dead didn't exist a long time ago. It was only because people with [psychic] skills did it that this idea gradually spread."
"As for the story of the face-changing spirit, it is completely fictitious."
After the Pope said these words, he took off the coat on his body, revealing a series of dozens of lifelike wooden masks hanging around his waist.
Before Lu Qing could carefully observe the appearance of these masks, a strange mental wave surged from the Pope's body.
In an instant, countless ferocious-looking evil spirits floated behind the Pope, and the darkness almost covered the sky.
At this moment, the sound of the wind seemed to be much quieter, and even the ice and snow from the outside did not dare to invade this place.
Lu Qing only felt a huge sense of oppression pressing down on her body. As long as the Pope had a thought, these evil ghosts filling the entire sky would swarm up and tear her into pieces.
