Chapter 16: Ikatris

Ekateris, with long pink hair and blue pupils, a Western-like face, and a tear mole under the corner of her left eye, is a standard beauty. Whether in terms of the aesthetics of the country of the east or the country of the west.

Hello everyone, I'm System Jun, and now I'm going to give you a little bit about the magic of another world.

There are two main types of human race on this continent, one is the yellow race that lives in the east, such as the typical Asian face of Jade, and the other is the white race like Ikatris, who comes from the western country, and the facial features are more prominent than the yellow race, and they seem to have obvious personalities.

There is a not small sea area between the country of the east and the country of the west, and only a small part of the land borders, so although it is considered a continent, the races are significantly different, and people from the country of the west can often be seen in cities close to the border, Liu Xianyu also saw adventurers in the country of the west in the town yesterday, and he also specially inquired about the country of the west with Jade for this matter.

It is said that a long time ago in the northernmost part of this continent there lived a group of races called the demon race, these demon races have been occupying the northernmost area of the continent since a long time ago, they can freely switch forms between humans and beasts, but the real demon race has been extinct a long time ago, and now the inhabitants living in the territory of the demon race are all mixed descendants of the demon race, that is, many people have some animal characteristics, but they can only survive in human form.

Liu Xianyu looked at Ikatalis in front of him and looked at her carefully, she looked a little older than him and Jade, about twenty years old, her long pink hair hung down in a ponytail and went straight to her waist, her blue pupils were clear as if she could reflect Liu Xianyu's heart, and the slightly upturned corners of her eyes made her look a little heroic, and she spoke a little chivalrous, she should belong to that kind of handsome girl.

It's a pity that the ugliness when he hanged himself just now has been seen by Liu Xianyu, and the character has collapsed.

[It's a bit presumptuous, but can I know why you can't think of hanging? 】

Liu Xianyu was curious to ask why the girl in front of her, who seemed calm, would choose to commit suicide.

[Shame on you, as a person who believes in the goddess, he should love all life, but before he went down, he really encountered a test of faith. 】

Ikatris told her own story.

As the youngest daughter of a noble family in the West, she has had a high affinity for the light element since she was a child, and she has lived relatively freely since she was a child when it is impossible to inherit the family business, plus she has a mother who believes in the goddess of creation, so it is natural for Ikateris, who grew up, to join the goddess religion at the age of eight and become a believer.

Due to her natural affinity for the light element, she became a priest of the Goddess Cult.

(Note: The Goddess Cult here is a semi-spontaneous organization with a large scope but extremely loose management, not so much a religion as a spontaneous organization formed by people who believe in the goddess, and even the management is basically based on self-discipline.) Because this world has the same god system, the religious systems do not fight with each other, and people do not pay much attention to it, and over time it becomes a simple spiritual belief. οΌ‰

It stands to reason that Ikatris, the mage of the light elemental who is the most healing magic, should walk firmly on the road of healing, saving people, and promoting love, but she has encountered a strange phenomenon, that is, she cannot apply healing to others, but the power of attack spells such as Holy Light Punishment and Purification is extremely powerful, and the Holy Light released from her hands is different from others, even healing magic has an extremely hot temperature, and her Holy Light Punishment can even rely solely on heat to melt steel.

Others said that this was the revelation of the goddess to her, making her the most punishing of evil and promoting good (the exclusive name of the warrior who was proficient in light magic and joined the goddess cult), so Ikatris, who was just in her early tens, began to learn swordsmanship with an old knight according to her mother's arrangement, and sure enough, Ikatrius also has an amazing talent in swordsmanship, and she has been able to reach a tie with the old knight in five years, if you add her light magic that is enough to melt steel, the old knight is not her opponent at all.

A few years later, Icatelis began to be active in her hometown as a knight of light with the title of priest, and even received the reputation of the Sword of Radiance, but the more people boasted of her prowess, the more confused she became, she thought that this was not the life she wanted, so Icatelis got on the ship to the East Country, she wanted to see if anyone from other countries could give her an answer.

As a result, it was unfortunate that the ship she was on encountered a reef and sank halfway, and when she woke up from her coma, she was surrounded by several seriously injured and dying passengers, and there were some monster corpses around them, and it could be seen that these passengers were because they were resisted by monsters and finally defeated the monsters, but both were defeated, but unfortunately Ikatrius did not have any treatment at all, she could only use bandages in vain to stop the bleeding of those injured, and the result can be imagined, Her vaunted force didn't come in handy when she needed it most, and she could only watch as the passengers died of serious injuries one by one.

For the first time, Ikatrius had doubts about her existence, and she fell into serious self-doubt, and after that she walked in the mountains avoiding the crowds, and wandered until yesterday, where she encountered several ooze monsters, and after killing them, Ikatrius lay down under a tree and fell asleep.

She dreamed of the goddess in her dream, and the goddess told her that only after experiencing the test of life and death can she realize her true value, and after waking up from the dream, Ikateris thought for a long time and did not understand what the test between life and death is? Do you want her to die?

In the midst of extreme unconsciousness, Ikatrius chose to commit suicide, which she believed was the so-called test of life and death.

As a result, the rest of the story can be imagined, after feeling the suffocation, Ikatriis was scared, she was just a girl in her early twenties after all, she struggled to survive, so there was the scene that Jade and I saw before.

[Now I finally know, I have passed the test of the goddess! 】

Ikatris looked at me with glowing eyes.

【Salted Fish Captain! 】

Jade suddenly called Liu Xianyu with a strange name, and Liu Xianyu turned his head and showed a knowing smile to Jade.

One thing has been determined between the two people's eye contact - we must keep Ikatrius in our team!

A priest who is good at swordsmanship and whose light is powerful enough to melt steel!

Liu Xianyu coughed and said to Ikateris with a holy face:

[Come on, meeting the two of us here is the will of the goddess, join our team to realize your true value (make up for the lack of our output)! 】
