The temple bell rang twelve times, and Boris knelt on the floor in the center of the temple, praying devoutly to the statue of the bear god Esun.
He has been praying here for nearly an hour, and this is the first time he has been so pious. His knees, which should have been extremely sore for a long time, did not respond at all today, and there was even a trace of warmth coming from the joints. High Priest Yesko
Vicky stood aside and looked at the young believer with a look of joy and satisfaction. Boris can be said to be the most talented among the students he received. He is keen, courageous, and careful. Although he has a noble status, he is
He did not rely on power, but prayed, trained, studied, and did homework with other believers. When he even discussed the way of faith with civilian disciples, Yeskovitch knew that he had accepted a true Esun believer.
The winter sunshine passed through the window and formed a beam of light, shining lightly on Boris. He felt extremely calm, as if his soul was placed in some mysterious realm, and his whole body glowed with a new vitality.
.In the past, although he followed his father, he also believed in the bear god Esun. However, more often, it was because of family tradition rather than true belief. As he grew older, many things could not be overcome, and Boris began to seek
The way of faith.
He prayed to Father Bear in despair, and received responses many times. When Yeskovitch came from the north, he once distrusted the so-called high priest because of his origin and
That strange outfit didn't look like a high priest at all.
However, repeated contacts made him feel the difference in this high priest. Yeskovitch, he was the first person to truly abandon his power and serve the gods in his heart wholeheartedly. In the past, Kisli
Although the husband's clergy also serve various gods, they often have secular activities, and it has long been an open secret that clergy in high positions use power for personal gain. However, Yeskovitch does not, he is a pure
Apart from serving the Bear God and spreading the ways of the Bear God Esun, he did almost nothing else, and he was not involved in the politics of Kislev at all. Boris finally understood why the Bear God was appointed by the Great Lord of the North, Rhodes.
He is the high priest and no one else.
"Okay, Boris, that's it for today."
The afternoon sun shines through the windows and into the temple. The ground seems to be covered with a layer of frost, which extends to the foot of the statue of Father Bear. Yeskovitch woke up Boris with a smile on his face. That was his most beloved statue.
Apprentice, he hopes that his apprentice can stay like this and not engage in anything related to political struggles or interest struggles. He has full confidence in Boris because he has extremely high talents.
"Teacher, I can continue for a while."
Boris came back from his thoughts about Hades, with no trace of fatigue or sleepiness on his face. He stood up calmly, casually sat on a bench in the hall, and sat looking at each other with his mentor.
"Father Xiong needs a healthy person, not an extreme person. Remember, in everything you do, you must grasp the scale. You have done enough homework today, it's time to rest. In the afternoon, do physical endurance training. Mortal
We still need to supplement our material needs.”
Yeskovitch said calmly.
Boris nodded. In fact, he knew what his mentor said, but there was one thing that he never told his mentor. That was about the person he loved in his heart. It was a secret that only belonged to him. He could never see him.
Tianri’s secret. Yes, to this day, he is still in love with Queen Denis. However, every time such thoughts come to mind, Boris slaps himself hard. She is the queen, someone else’s woman!
Boris reminded himself again and again, but the more cruel he was to treat himself every time, the more his heart ached. He prayed to Father Bear and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the way of Esun. In fact, there was another purpose, which was to forget about Dennis. Only by immersing himself in
Only when he was in the light of God could he feel the rare peace, even if it was just for a moment.
"Teacher, I had that dream again last night."
Under the sun, Boris's face looked a little pale.
"Oh, everyone dreams. Sometimes, it's just a dream. Why should you keep it in your heart and never forget it? The more you think about it, the more it will come to you. It's the same as fear, you don't know
People who are afraid of anything will never encounter terror in their lives, but those who are afraid of darkness and evil will encounter it more often."
"I understand the truth, teacher. But, it's really different. I've never had a similar dream before." Boris pursed his dry lips. "It's really, really real! It's like I'm personally there.
, city walls as tall as mountains, countless chaos monsters..."
Yeskovitch frowned. He knew that his beloved disciple never lied, but the scene he described was rare in the world. It should be said that it had not appeared in Kislev yet. As for whether it would be in other corners of the world
The scene in this story is unknown to Yeskovitch. When he was young, he traveled around the world, but the farthest he traveled was on the wild ice fields in the north of Norsk. Further north, there was the endless chaotic wasteland.
Skovich did not have the ability to go further north. As for the south, south of the Border Princely Territory, he had never set foot there. Maybe there would be... but, according to his known knowledge, it did not appear.
"I can see the scene outside the city wall, which is endless forests and mountains. The tall city wall divides the world into two. Inside the city wall, there is a vast green plain, while outside the city wall, there is only one color -
White. I can even feel the stinging sensation of the cold wind hitting my face. That feeling is like...like I have really been here."
Boris continued. Although Yeskovitch didn't believe it, he just nodded and listened patiently to his beloved disciple's story.
"I can see those soldiers. They are wearing all kinds of armor. Some look like civilians and can't even wear leather armor, while some look like nobles, holding sharp swords and wearing heavy plate armor. Almost all of them look like civilians.
Everyone was injured, but they never left the high wall, and that wall seemed to be their life."
Boris said seriously. He recalled his dream, which should be said to be a nightmare, and he didn't know if he would continue tonight? Is this an illusion or a revelation given to him by Father Bear? Boris didn't
I know. It seems that the instructor doesn’t know either...
"Boris, my student, nightmares are sometimes demons, and you must use your will to overcome them. When necessary, pray to Father Bear and listen to his holy words. As for the walls in the wilderness, and those
Soldier. What I want to say is that it is not in Kislev, and even if it is, it is not the place you should go. Who are you now? You are the son of Vladimir, and you are a famous person in Kislev.
How could a noble go to such a desolate place? Even if it is a garrison, you should be a general or a cavalry commander, not an ordinary soldier."
Yeskovitch said with a smile, his face filled with love and care.
Boris nodded, but sighed in his heart. He still had to face what he should face...
