On the west side of Mount Targon, the headquarters of the Bright Moon Sect.
After Lester took the initiative to make it public, everyone knew that Phyllis was the next incarnation and chooser of the Sun Titan.
There are envious people, there are flatterers, there are calm people, but there are no jealous people, because everyone knows that the human incarnation of the giant will only appear on the best disciples of the sect, which means it is not Phyllis
It was Stacey, and Stacey's thoughts were destined not to be tolerated by most people, so it could only be Phyllis.
No normal person would be jealous of a peer who is much better than themselves through their own hard work and talent. People who are motivated will only regard Phyllis as their role model.
As for the fact that Stacey, who was as dazzling as Phyllis and even more beloved by the high priest, was not selected, most people felt a sense of relief that the sky was clear. When the two decided the winner, except for a few
Except for the believers of the Moon Sect, no one wants to deal with this apostate and deviant freak.
After half a day of teaching, most of the believers gathered around Phyllis to show their goodwill. Stacey on the other side was completely alone. The gray-haired girl with her head lowered was alone and sad. This scene made Leicester feel a little distressed.
.
"Stacey, come with me."
After being stunned for a moment, the girl stood up, responded respectfully, and followed Lester out.
Phyllis, who was surrounded by the crowd on her seat, frowned and looked at her competitor following the man's back, a trace of imperceptible jealousy flashed in her eyes.
For some reason, most of the joy and satisfaction of being selected disappeared instantly.
"Sorry, I need to go out for a while."
With a smile on her face, Phyllis forcibly broke away from the crowd and left the courtyard. She glanced left and right and did not see the two of them. The blonde girl's face froze and she lowered her head and fell into deep thought.
"Where can I go..."
Following Lester, Stacey walked onto the observatory of Wangyue Temple.
"In my opinion, Phyllis is as good as you. There is no need for you to feel disappointed. In fact, I like you more than Phyllis."
The man stood in front of the moon monument and brushed his fingers over the Rakkor inscription on the moon monument.
The approximate meaning of the inscription is "The moon sets and the moon rises, the clouds and the sun waxes and wanes. Looking back, the moon is still the moon." In Leicester's opinion, this is a very philosophical nonsense, and I don't know who made it mysteriously.
It's carved on a stone tablet to show off.
The key is, he really did it.
"But it's not me who has the final say, and I don't want you to become the incarnation of the Titan. That's not a good thing. I'm actually happy for you that the Titan didn't choose you. Likewise, I'm also happy for the Titan.
I feel sad that I chose Phyllis, which means that she must shoulder a mission that should not be hers. The Titan's choice is too heavy, and it should not be a price you need to bear."
"teacher……"
"The ideas I taught you are not applicable to this world, let alone Rakoul, or Mount Targon. Among so many students, you are the only one willing to understand, and you are the only one who has learned my thoughts. This is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing.
.
Stacey, I need you to understand that no matter how many people we have, even if we give everything we have, we cannot shake the theocratic throne that has been maintained for thousands of years above our heads. The teacher is a loser... You are my favorite student,
I don’t want you to get hurt because of me.”
Turning around, Lester put his hand on the girl's face and pulled gently. The baby fat from childhood had disappeared. Stacey was no longer the little loli running around behind her butt. She was the girl at this moment.
Like a clear bright moon, the pink lips reflect an alluring luster in the sun.
The girl's misty gray eyes were his favorite part.
The children around him always grow up unknowingly and will grow old in the future. From beginning to end, he is the only one accompanying him with the cold tombstones.
Lester sighed softly.
"I will teach you the last lesson in the afternoon. You have grown up and no longer need me. Phyllis has already embarked on the path she needs to take. And you, I hope you forget everything I taught you.
, I am very satisfied if I grow up happily and healthily as an ordinary believer. Maybe I will leave here, maybe not, but you still need to walk the rest of the way on your own."
The man's voice was very gentle. Stacey wiped her eyes and held the man's hand on her cheek.
"Teacher, if you leave, can you take me with you? I...want to learn more things from you."
Lester chuckled and scratched Stacey's nose.
"Why, how old are you, and you still can't let go of your teacher?"
The girl sniffed and buried her head in the man's arms.
"Well, I can't bear to leave the teacher."
"Actually, the teacher can't bear to leave you, but there's no such thing as a banquet that lasts forever."
Patting Stacey's back, Lester rubbed the sore corners of his eyes and gently pushed the girl in his arms away.
"Teacher's path is different from yours. Following me will only make you...scarred."
Stacey watched blankly as the heavy-stepping man left, her body lost strength and she knelt on the ground.
At some point, another figure appeared in the eyes, but it was Phyllis who stretched out her hand. The blond girl looked a little disappointed.
"Stacey, even if you win, the teacher still likes you more."
Smiling wryly and wiping her tears, Stacey took Phyllis' hand and was pulled up by the blonde girl.
"Phyllis, you are wrong, I am just a loser."
"Haha, yes, we are all losers, a league of losers."
After forcing a smile twice, Phyllis felt that there was something stuck in her throat and she couldn't speak, and her nose was a little sore.
After being silent for a while, Stacey whispered.
"Teacher, he carries a lot of heavy things. I can feel that he doesn't want to drag us into those troubles. I want to help him, but I don't know what to do."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Let me help you. It is better for two people to figure out a solution together than alone, right?"
Stacey raised her head blankly, and Phyllis smiled, revealing her white and shining teeth, like the dawn sunshine in early spring.
"Being able to work hard for the person you like is a very romantic thing. If you have power but cannot use it where you want, then such power will lose its meaning to a person.
Do you think you are the only one who likes Teacher?"
A bright smile gradually appeared on her face. Stacey opened her arms and hugged the sunshine girl in front of her tightly. The peculiar body fragrance penetrated her nose. The unexpected hug made the sunshine girl's face turn red and she was a little overwhelmed.
"Thank you, Phyllis."
Taking a deep breath, she still felt that she had lost. Phyllis was unconvinced and hugged Stacey with her backhand, burying her head in the gray hair, her ears rubbing against her temples.
"To be honest, I was a little jealous of you before, jealous of why the teacher always focused on you and gave you more attention, but I'm not jealous now."
"Ah? Why?"
"If I were a teacher, I'd probably fall in love with you too."
"You...what are you talking nonsense..."
Pushing the blonde girl away, Stacey fled from the platform in panic.
…
After finishing the last class, Lester bid farewell to the students in the temple, found the most reliable priests of the Sun Sect and the Moon Sect, and briefly arranged the development of the Sun Sect and the Moon Sect after he left.
Estimating that this trip to the deep sea would only last for a month or two at most, Lester did not plan to say a long and affectionate farewell. He just told Octavia about his movements and made preparations.
The man held a fishing rod, a fishing bucket and a small bench, and wore waterproof fishskin pants and sat on the shore, waiting for the Tidecaller of the Human race to emerge from the Sea of Conqueror.
When no one is around, he has to make friends first, so as to gain an advantage and avoid embarrassment.
"Hey you! Who is attacking me!"
At midnight, the magic tide suddenly fell into chaos. The sea tide surged and fell. As soon as a horned head emerged holding a strange thing like a luminous pearl, it was hit in the head by a fishhook falling from the sky.
"Hey, it's my kid who attacked you~"
Lester waved a friendly hand.
The male friend was a little confused by Leicester. He just stayed there for a few seconds before he reacted, and his face looked a little weird.
"Are you the Radiant Wanderer?"
"I'm just not brilliant enough, that's okay, but am I not romantic enough?"
Lester pointed to his fishskin shorts and a bucket of sea fish. He looked like he didn't take aquatic life seriously in the waves.
"It's strange. The patriarch obviously said that the eyes of the Radiant Wanderer are golden...forget it."
Using ocean magic to prop up his fish tail, Tidecaller successfully landed.
"Wanderer, where's the moonstone?"
"it's here."
Lester tipped the fish bucket, and a few sea fish were successfully released and then put into the stomach of the big fish. After three seconds, he acted like a man of nature and took out a moon-shaped stone that emitted a faint blue light from the partition.
As for the magic equipment Zuo Yin gave that can breathe and move in the ocean, it has been hung around the man's neck. It is a piece of ice jade that can give the wearer the property of being hydrophilic.
The Tidecaller's face was filled with joy.
"This is a deep-sea pearl. We can complete the transaction."
"Can't."
"ah?"
The person was stunned again.
Lester grinned.
"You also know that I am not the radiant wanderer before. The reason why I am here this time is because I need to go to the abyss rift to see the situation of the void rift in person, so I can't give you the moon stone, and you have the deep sea pearl.
You have to give it to me."
"This, this is not fair."
"Are you still afraid that I will run away? I told you I would leave with you, but are you still afraid of coming home with you?"
Taking a fist-sized deep-sea pearl from Hanhan's friend, Lester looked at it twice and realized that he had no place to put it.
"Can I eat it?"
"ah?"
The Tidecaller froze on the spot, forgetting to cast his ocean magic, and landed directly on the beach, becoming a scurrying fish in the street.
"I asked you if you could eat it?"
He hurriedly used the wand of the deep sea to cast magic again to make himself levitate. Tidecaller could no longer think independently.
"Some people who are not afraid of death have eaten it. They need other supplementary food... materials, uh."
"As long as you don't die from eating it."
While stammering, Lester opened his mouth and began to nibble on the deep-sea pearls. A piece of powder could be dropped in one bite. The whole process was no different from eating egg shells. He swallowed it into his stomach in two or three mouthfuls.
A strange power emerged from the body, and Lester couldn't explain why.
"Okay, the transaction is completed, I'm leaving."
After eating the deep-sea pearls, Lester rinsed his mouth with sea water, picked up the moon stone and turned around to leave. The honest and trustworthy Tidecaller was stunned for a moment and almost cried.
"Don't, don't go, Lord Wanderer, didn't you say you wanted to follow me into the sea?"
Turning around, Lester smiled evilly and threw the glowing stone to the Tidecaller.
"Silly boy, I'm just teasing you. Take the moon stone and lead the way."
Holding the moonstone in his hands, he realized that he had no way to deal with the elusive radiant wanderer in front of him. He breathed a sigh of relief and unconsciously lowered his posture.
"Lord Radiant Wanderer, please come with me."
"Look, I just said it would be useful to make friends first, right?"
"What?"
"I didn't tell you. I'm just running out of money. I'm just trying my best to let myself go within the limits. Don't worry, no one is watching."
"???"
…
Sinking into the ocean, Lester was surprised to find that the ice jade around his neck held up a transparent bubble that could cover his whole body. The transparent bubble was like an extension of his body and was controlled by his consciousness. Not only did he have enough oxygen to supply breathing,
, and can also move quickly in the sea.
The man decided immediately that no matter what Zuo Yin said, he could not take it back.
Entering the deep sea from the shallow sea, Lester in the bubble did not feel any pressure from the deep sea. This made Lester a little worried that if the ice jade suddenly lost its effect, he would kick his legs directly in the ocean.
"By the way, little brother, what's your name? This fluent vastaya language makes me miss you very much."
"Lord Radiant Wanderer, my name is Liu Shui."
The Tidecaller who was leading the way turned back and responded to Lester.
"Um, Liushui...can you lend me your staff? Don't worry, I won't not return it."
Instinctively holding the tribe's treasured staff in his arms, Liu Shui shook his head vigorously.
"No, Lord Wanderer, this Tidecaller wand does not belong to me alone, it is a sacred object of our entire human race."
"Is that so? That means you can lend it to me as long as it belongs to you alone, right?"
Seeing with his own eyes that the child in front of him had more and more air bubbles on his body, Lester didn't feel comfortable continuing to embarrass himself.
As the depth of the dive became deeper and deeper, the water where some dim light could still be seen had turned into pitch black. It was only the light from the Tidecaller's wand and ice jade that dispelled the darkness.
Some strange-looking deep-sea fish can be seen in the invisible ocean. Lantern fish and unknown fish with magical lights on their dorsal fins are lingering around the bubbles. They seem to be very interested in Lester in the bubbles.
Deeper, there is a dark shadow with huge tentacles, and I don't know if it is hiding a big octopus.
"Liushui, how did you come to live so far away? Logically speaking, Vastaya's ancestral home should be Omikayalan in Ionia, right? The other sea area should be your top priority
A place to settle down.”
It was unexpected that Lester could know this secret belonging to Vastaya, and Liu Shui became more curious about Lester's origins.
"Originally, we also lived in another sea area that you humans call the 'Watcher's Sea'. It is very close to Ionia, and we can also absorb the nature from our ancestral land of Omicayalan.
Magic enhances magic power, but I don’t know when something terrible will appear in the ocean.”
"A very scary thing? Is it a Naga Kapoulos? A little fish man? Or a giant iron bump carrying an anchor?"
Liu Shui looked at Lester with a strange look, who seemed to know everything. Liu Shui's awe became even stronger, and he asked Tide Caller to scratch his head.
"It's the terrifying octopus god Naga Kapoulos. She and her sea monsters have posed a great threat to the human race. As a last resort, we can only leave the Sea of Watchers and cross the sea.
