Chapter 36 Entrustment

"Knight from afar, what do you think the Light is?" In the small quiet room, the kind old man sat at the old desk, a book about an inch thick was spread out in front of him, and the sunlight shone on the old man's body through the small window, which looked sacred and kind.

Led by Benedictas, Roland and King Grey went to the lounge area at the back of the chapel and met the prestigious Archbishop Alonthos Fao. But what he didn't expect was that this faithful believer of the Holy Light would play a guessing game with him as soon as they met.

Test? Roland didn't think much of it, and he didn't plan to get any benefit from the old man anyway. As the saying goes, no desire is rigid, so he didn't pause at all, and directly said his opinion. Of course, it inevitably brings a little bit of the type of "scientific induction" of the previous life.

"An energy as opposed to the Shadow, which responds to our call and becomes our strength because of the goodness that we believe in in our hearts."

"As a darling of the arcane from Quel'Thalas, even if you're not a mage, you can still speak like a mage that makes ordinary people scratch their heads."

I don't know whether to praise or belittle, the old man who was sitting on the chair just smiled indifferently, "There are no two identical leaves in the world, everyone will have their own understanding, no matter what is right or wrong." ”

"I like your candor though. Young man, do you know why Benedictas would bring you to me instead of to Eluthia's dwelling? ”

Roland didn't speak, just quietly looked at this thin old man who seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind, and he knew that the other party would definitely give him a reasonable explanation. The years had left a deep imprint on the old man's face, and from his clear eyes, the paladin seemed to be able to read a hint of helplessness in them.

"I want you to teach Illusia the way of the Paladin", before Roland could object, the old man raised his hand and made a stop gesture, "Listen to me, it wasn't until a few days ago that I was really sure that Illusia was not fit to inherit my path. Maybe the Paladin would be a better fit for her, but unfortunately I can't add a spot on the stake, and the circumstances won't allow me to do so. ”

"Originally, I didn't want to involve you in the maelstrom of Barov and Lordaeron, but you seem to have done something remarkable in the Elder's Square today", said this, the old man's eyes were full of teasing.

"So I think you'll be the right person to teach her. You wouldn't refuse the most sincere plea of an ordinary old man, would you? ”

After speaking, he looked at Roland sincerely, as if waiting for the young man to give him an answer.

Ordinary? If you were ordinary, I am afraid there would not be many normal people in this world? Roland was really afraid that he couldn't help but roll his eyes, but if he offended this guy after offending Tyrenus, he would really be in Lordaeron to the point where everyone shouted and beat him. So, there's no choice at all!

"It's an honor to be able to serve you."

Roland saluted the old man, although he was unhappy to do a day job, but the respect on his face still had to be maintained, but his face would definitely not look good. But the old man didn't mind at all, just laughed and waved Benedictas to send them away.

The young priest led the two to Illusia's lodgings, but he soon left, leaving Roland and the Dull-Hairy King staring dryly, for he had to arrange a place for them to live. After all, from the analysis of various situations, the High Elf Paladin who accepted the archbishop's commission must have been living in the chapel for a while.

Despite the wealth of the Barov family, the arrangement of Illusia in the Chapel of the Light is the same. This cottage is only slightly larger than the ashram where the archbishop is, and the beds, tables and chairs are old things, and there is no decoration on the walls, maintaining a simple and austere style.

The only difference should be the bedding, but it's not too out of line, just a little more gorgeous, and it doesn't have the luxury that a duke's daughter should have.

"Looks like we're going to be staying in the chapel before the Paladin's baptism?" The Dumb Hair King sat on the edge of the bed and touched his stomach, "I don't know how the food is?" ”

If you don't want to eat, you'll die? Three sentences expose the prototype, there is wood! Roland doesn't know how to complain about this guy's foodie attributes. He nodded, and glanced at the Knight King complicatedly, "In order not to cause trouble to Iron Felt, it's best not to disturb his shop." ”

He didn't have to wait long, and Benedictas, who had left earlier, walked in again with a book in his arms.

"This is the teacher's notebook, which records his experience in the path of light, and it is his most cherished treasure. He said that this notebook should help you move forward on the path of Light. ”

The young priest carefully handed the notebook to Roland as if he were holding a priceless treasure, and continued: "In addition, your accommodation has been arranged, and someone will take you there after you meet Illusia, and the teacher asked me to pack two sets of equipment for the Knights of the Silver Hand, and you can test whether it fits at that time." ”

After listening to Benedictas's words, Roland, who had just been depressed because of the exposure of the nature of the Dull King, was indescribably excited: I'll just say, how can a good person like the Bishop let me work for a day, it turns out that the surprise is here! The joyful Roland had completely forgotten how he had slandered the white-bearded old man before.

I have to say that this group of powerful old people are very generous.

Mephistopheles, the master of the arcane, only asked a question, and then asked Passareen to send him a rune sword; Archbishop Alonsos was even more generous, not only taking out the special equipment for the upcoming Knights of the Silver Hand for the sake of his disciple's future, but also handing over to himself a note that recorded his life's experience.

What's more, they do things very gently, they don't force or seduce themselves with rewards in advance, but are more like helping each other in equal status. For a big man like them, such a low profile can make people feel better.

Of course, Roland will not be naΓ―ve to think that he is domineering and exposed, and has opened the halo of mentally handicapped. In his opinion, the reason why Master Mephistopheles values himself is probably because of Passarena. In the same way, Archbishop Fao also thanked himself for his understanding of the Holy Light for the sake of Illusia, not to mention, as the eldest daughter of the Barov family, Illusia can be regarded as a big burden to a certain extent.
