In the eyes of the magician Antonio, the members of the Black Magic Priory are a group of heretics, and they are just a group of street rats that everyone shouts and beats.
The Magic Guild Law Enforcement Group and the fighting priests of the temple also have zero tolerance for the Priory. Once members of the Priory are discovered, they will definitely track them down and eradicate them from the source.
In Suldak's eyes, these members of the Black Magic Monastery were nothing to worry about.
As long as their whereabouts are revealed to the Magic Guild Law Enforcement Team, there will be specialized magicians who want them. He is curious about Selena's involvement with the Black Magic Hermitage. He can't help but guess in his heart: Could it be from
Is there a defector from the Priory of Dark Arts?
Then she immediately denied her guess. If she were a magician, would she still be short of money?
At this time, Selina had already adjusted her collapsed emotions. She stood up straight and looked at Suldak deeply: "Can I trust you?"
Surdak didn't speak, but pointed to the knight's badge on his chest and said, "I swear on the honor of a knight."
Selena lowered her head, bit her lower lip with her teeth, twitched for a while, and then made up her mind and said: "Since you want to know, come with me! In fact, you could have known earlier..."
After saying that, she turned around and walked into the somewhat simple stone house, and Suldak followed in. This stone house had only one room. As soon as she entered the door, she could see the wooden tables and chairs in the living room, and there was a wooden table against the north wall.
On the bed, double partitions were built on top of the wooden bed to form a hammock, with a thick hay mat spread on it and washed white linen sheets on the mat.
The fireplace is on the wall opposite the bed. There is a wooden table next to it. The plate on it is filled with chestnuts. There is also a fist-sized piece of bacon and a small piece of cassava on an earthenware plate. There are still embers in the fireplace.
Before it was put out, a piece of cassava showed its burnt skin from the ashes. It seemed that this piece of roasted cassava should be lunch for two people.
There were almost no valuable furnishings in the whole house, but with the careful decoration of the owner, it looked very warm. Selena closed the door and the room suddenly became much darker. She stood next to the square table and put on the long maroon
Her hair was pulled up high, revealing a section of her snow-white neck.
She turned her back to Surdak and slowly unbuttoned her skirt. The long linen skirt piled on her feet.
The smooth back and slender legs outline the most outstanding figure. Suldak's eyes fell on her back, and he saw a whole black tattoo. It was a bust sunken into the ground. A man with
The woman with a perfect face raised one arm high, raising her head as if looking up from the underground well. The face and body of the figure were covered with strange runes, and a pair of empty eyes looked up at the night sky through the underground abyss.
Behind the bust is an emblem outlined with a hollow crescent moon, an eye with long eyelashes, and a magic wand as lines. The hollow black crescent moon is on Surdak's side.
The eyes are extremely striking.
This tattoo almost covered Selena's entire back. Surdak asked in surprise: "What is this... magic pattern?"
But what his true eyes saw was a completely different scene. When Selena took off her long skirt, the black mist that originally surrounded Selena and the woman hidden in the black mist actually turned into a line of black.
The vortex was sucked into Selena's body bit by bit, integrated into her body like ink, and printed on her smooth back.
Selena squatted down, picked up the long skirt that fell at her feet and protected it on her chest. She blushed and turned to Suldak and said:
"This is not a magic pattern, but a mark."
It was as if some kind of power had descended on Selena, and a crescent-moon-like mark appeared on her eyebrows. She seemed to be a different person for a moment.
The feeling that gave Surdak, the power that came to Selena, was like the blessings of gods and demons that came to him after he offered the sacrifice during the sacrificial ceremony.
The only difference is that Selena doesn't seem to need to offer a sacrifice. As long as she wants to integrate that power into her body, she can do it anytime and anywhere.
Before Surdak could say anything, Selena continued: "As a person chosen by the goddess - an apostle of the dark goddess, or a priest of the dark temple, my mission is to
The Grimm Empire spreads the teachings of the Dark Goddess."
Apostles of the Dark Goddess? Priests of the Dark Temple? Spreading the teachings of the Dark Goddess...
Surdak didn't expect that Selina was actually a believer, but as a messenger spreading the teachings of the Dark Goddess, shouldn't she leave her footprints in various provinces of the Green Empire and preach to the people of the Green Empire the glory of believing in the Dark Goddess?
?
"Since you are the apostle of the Dark Goddess, why do you live in seclusion in Wall Village...?" Surdak felt a little incredible.
But... don't all the people in the Green Empire believe in the Statue of Liberty? Surdak thought in his heart.
Selena also showed a helpless smile at this time. She put the long skirt back on her body, and then asked Suldak to sit down, "Even if you are a goddess apostle, you must first ensure that you can survive. Almost everyone in the entire empire is
It is not easy for believers of the Statue of Liberty to persuade the stubborn Green people to change their beliefs, and apostles like me will be regarded as heretics by the priests in the Temple of Liberty. The priests in those temples may save the world, but only
He will not have mercy on us."
"But you...as an apostle of the Dark Goddess, shouldn't you be blessed by the goddess and gain some extraordinary power?...No matter how you look at it now, you are in a miserable state!" Suldak thought of Sai.
Linna asked in confusion as she actually wanted to commit herself to marrying a knight like him.
Selina shook her head, "This continent has no soil for sowing dark doctrines, and there are few believers. It is impossible to harvest the power of faith. Naturally, the goddess of darkness will not send down an oracle. This should be a corner forgotten by the goddess.
"
"With the power you have, you shouldn't live in seclusion in such a remote village and live such a hard life. Are you still an ascetic?" Surdak asked.
At this time, the mark that appeared on Selena's body disappeared little by little, turning into black mist again surrounding her, and the figure of the woman in the black mist faded to almost no longer exist.
The crescent mark between Selena's eyebrows also slowly disappeared. Selena looked up at Suldak. What made her a little relieved was that Suldak did not do anything drastic after knowing her identity.
She has seen too many people's behavior. After learning her true identity, some hope that she can stay away, or they can't wait to report her to the priests of the temple as soon as possible, or they hope to get rid of her
She gained some benefits from her, after all, she was the one chosen by the Dark Goddess.
Selena wants to tell those people every time that the Dark Goddess Celine is just a god with few believers, and she cannot even perform ordinary miracles.
‘Perhaps Selina wanted to preach the teachings of the Dark Goddess to others, so she was misunderstood as an ominous person.’ This is what Surdak thought.
Selena shook her head slightly, "No, I am not an ascetic monk. If I can pray to the goddess in exchange for bread and milk, I will certainly improve the life here, and I will never let myself live in such poverty..."
In fact, Suldak is not a believer in the Statue of Liberty, so he doesn't care what Selena believes in. He just thinks that she is probably the most miserable priest in the world.
At this time, he thought about his own sacrificial ceremony. He provided sacrifices to the demon god and received the power from the demon god accordingly. In the eyes of the war priest of the temple, does this situation also belong to the heretics?
"Is it because of this that the members of the Black Magic Hermitage want to find you?" Surdak asked.
Selina nodded silently, looking like a poor kitten, looking at Suldak unblinkingly.
Suldak felt that he should give Selena some comfort at this time, so he gently held the soft hand stretched out from across the table and said: "We have a lot of things that need to be prepared in advance..."
