The Whispering Verses Chapter 39: Respect a kind world

"Shad Hamilton, Detective."

Xia De also took the initiative to introduce himself when shaking hands.

"Bill has already told me about you. Being able to join is both your luck and our luck."

The old man said happily. At this time, Shade saw the champagne in the ice bucket on the coffee table. It should have been prepared by Dr. Schneider, because the financial situation of Priest Augustus seemed to be only better than Shade. .

Priest Rat Augustus is a second-level sorcerer in this group. He became a correspondence-level sorcerer three years ago.

He is not a local who grew up in Tobesk City, but was born in a small town in the south of the Kingdom of Delarian. Influenced by his family, the old priest has believed in the righteous God [Mr. Dawn] since he was a boy. He passed the examination of Dawn Seminary in Tobesk in his youth. At the age of 23, he joined the Dawn Church in Tobesk City and has never married since. All contribute to the church.

Although it took 30 years, Priest Augustus did not take any further step away from his identity as a priest due to various reasons. But no one doubts his piety. The old priest has a very high prestige in the church of this diocese. He is very trusted by the clergy and believers in the church of Dawn Church. Even the archbishop of a large diocese like Tobesk diocese will give a speech in a certain place. Ask him for his opinion on some important issues.

Due to the awkward relationship between the Correspondence Ring Warlock and the Righteous God Church, Shade will often need to hide his identity in front of the Church in the future. Priest Augustus is the best person in the group to settle church affairs because he has connections with the Zhengshen Church.

Although the Ring Warlock's talent is not very good due to his old age, he must not be left out of the five-person team.

As proof of mutual trust, Priest August and Shade also showed each other their respective life rings. The priest also belongs to the extraordinary situation among ordinary situations, but instead of having three like Miss Louisa, there is only one core spirit rune [Glimmer].

Priest August’s identity and core runes are in line with the requirements of the “theological school” of St. Byrons Comprehensive College. But the priest did not join the seminary. He is now a member of the chemistry faculty and is proficient in the cultivation and picking of herbs and the preparation of potions.

In a group of five, Xia De now knows one more person. Among the remaining two people who have not arrived, Dorothy Louisa, a writer from the Folklore Institute, will probably take some time to arrive. Another three-ring sorcerer, Luvia Annat, cannot come today. Some things are not in the city of Tobesk for the time being.

"Miss Anat is actually different from us. Strictly speaking, she is a ring warlock who belongs to the [Prophet Association]. Anat wrote a letter and asked us to say hello to you. She will not be back until next month, but In fact, it’s only a few days away, it’s next week.”

The doctor continued to introduce the group's situation and indicated that Shade, who had finished shaking hands, could find a place to sit down.

"Since she is also in our group, isn't that lady a correspondence student from St. Byrons?"

Xia De asked doubtfully, choosing to sit opposite Dr. Schneider.

Although Priest August has a church background, he received adult education from the college, so he can be regarded as a correspondence student at St. Byrons. This Miss Anat is completely different.

"No, she is also a correspondence student of the college. She belongs to the School of Astronomy and is proficient in the art of divination. As for why she has a dual identity, do you know about 'joint training'?"

The doctor asked. Shade was just confused when he heard the lady's information, but now he is truly surprised, confirming again that the force he joined is really a school.

"She herself still belongs to the [Prophet Society], but she was trained in two aspects. In fact, St. Byrons Comprehensive College, and many friendly organizations, including Zalas Literary College and Sirkess Higher Medical School, But not including the church, there are such joint training students, you will know about it later.

But there is no need to think anything of Anat because of her status, just treat her as an ordinary companion. Need tea? I drank some good black tea at your place last time, and I asked the maid to buy some. ”

The doctor asked, Shade thought for a while:

"Okay, thank you...So, Miss Luvia Anat is actually the same as us?"

"There is still a difference."

Priest Augustus was playing with his old pipe as he spoke. Of course he would not smoke in the clinic, this is just a habitual action:

"In addition to gaining knowledge at the academy, Miss Anat, the [Prophet Association] can also provide her with conveniences. She is very highly regarded by the ring magicians of the [Prophet Association]. So relatively speaking... ..."

The priest glanced at the doctor, who shook his head indifferently and indicated that the gray-haired old priest could continue:

"Although she is only a third-level player, only one level higher than me in the group, even the doctor is not sure that she can be defeated without a head-to-head confrontation. Of course, this also depends on the abilities of Schneider and Louisa, and Reasons why it is not suitable for frontal combat."

Priest August believes that although ring wizards have power, their profession is to study the world and explore themselves deeply, not to fight and kill. In the old man's opinion, ring wizards are more like scholars than mercenaries.

He has a similar idea to the doctor. After becoming a correspondence magician, you should not indulge your heart just because you have gained power, but should be more modest and cautious.

In other words, the two of them were gently reminding Xia De to be careful when doing things and not to get involved in things that he shouldn't be involved in. Reading patiently, carving spiritual runes to accumulate spiritual energy, reading the notes of predecessors, and learning more thaumaturgy and incantation are the correct living conditions for a correspondence magician.

Shade therefore suspected that the doctor had told Priest August about what happened to him the day before yesterday. Priest August was worried that Shade would suddenly gain power through the remnants of the old gods and be eager to gain more power through similar adventures, so he said this.

Priest August is also a very good person.

"Speaking of which, I'm actually quite curious about one thing."

Since the relationship between ring warlocks and fighting and killing was mentioned, Shade asked:

"Since the Ring Warlock collects elements himself, and even has spiritual runes engraved because of the elements. So by killing the Ring Warlock, can you get the opponent's power, such as spiritual runes, elements that escape, or the opponent's elements? For things like utensils.”

"Oh, this is such a horrible idea."

The gray-haired old priest shook his head, held the holy symbol on his chest and prayed with his eyes closed. The doctor shook his head seriously, looking at Shade with his blue eyes:

"Shad, I don't know where you got such a terrible idea. But if you kill a ring warlock who has nothing to do with you, all you can get is the corpse of the other person, and the guilt that will accompany you throughout your life.

From Delrayon to Carsonlik, from the Old World to the New World, from steam-industrial cities like ours to dark rural cemeteries. Ring warlocks can appear almost anywhere, but remember, this is a time of civilization, not a dark forest where the jungle can prey on the strong. If someone attacks you, you can fight back, but don't kill for pure gain, as this will make it easier for you to lose control. ”

Xia De also understood that what he said was inappropriate, and he was only so curious because of the fantasy stories he had read in the past. The foreigner doesn't want to gain power by killing people at all, he is just worried that others will do so:

"Sorry, actually I'm just curious. Yes, such a world is too scary... It's like people can live by eating people."

Priest Augustus, who was holding the Holy Emblem tightly, looked at Shad. His eyes were not as harsh as the doctor's, and the wrinkled eyes showed a softness:

"Although our world is so weird and terrifying, with countless evil things entrenched, relics of past eras can be seen everywhere, dangerous and mysterious knowledge challenges the limits of normal people's reason at any time, and people walking on the ground peek into the world. Evil God, there are monsters of the abyss hidden under the oceans of the old and new continents, but we are still happy for the existence of the world. Come, gentlemen, respect this benevolent world."

The old priest said he was moved and took the initiative to raise the tea cup in front of him. The doctor nodded happily and raised the cup, while Shade smiled. No matter how bad his situation was after arriving here, it was as if the world was compensating him by sending him such good friends:

"Respect this kind world."

The three of them spoke loudly together, and the stranger's smile at this moment came from the bottom of his heart.

At this time, the door was pushed open. The blond writer who barged in without knocking did not hear the previous conversation. However, as soon as he opened the door, he saw three men holding teacups high, one with a sacred face and the other with a serious face. , one person has a smile on his face.

Miss Louisa looked at the men hesitantly, wondering whether she should withdraw:

"What were you...doing just now?"
