Chapter 106: Even Lies Are Deceived Together (Part I)

Seeing this, Roland immediately turned on the battle prompt.

[You used the Innocuous Chant on a target other than yourself...... The target is Claudia (level 17 battle wizard), request submitted]

[Tutor Sleeps Accepts Your Request]

it!

Claudia really isn't a priest?!

You don't have to be a priest to use magic...... How did she do it? Isn't she afraid of being burned to death?

Roland was directly stunned.

He had been inspired by Claudia, had seen her perform light spells, and had seen Claude beside her, and subconsciously thought that she was the trainee priest of the goddess of war, how could he have thought that she was not even a priest?

This didn't even happen in the game.

Roland even wondered if this Claudia had been replaced by Kabbalah's enemies.

But he quickly calmed down.

…… At least finish the harmless chant first.

Either way, the most important thing now is to cure Claudia first.

So Roland spoke, and continued with the chant above:

"My God, my Lord Sleep Master, watch over her as she cares for me, that there may be light in her eyes, that she may not return to an everlasting sleep—"

As Roland's innocuous chant ended, the silver cross embedded in Claudia's forehead suddenly burst into a brilliant light.

After a brief moment, the blinding light became gentle, but its essence remained the same. It just faded away from the cold killing intent and reappeared with a gentle face.

If you want to describe it, it is the relationship between cheetahs and pet cats.

In that soft light as gentle as milk. Claudia's face visibly returned to blood, and her breathing stabilized.

Although there are only three verses in the innocent chant, it is the only auxiliary chant designated by the Elder Sleep Teacher. There is no doubt about the potency.

Its role is not to speed up healing like the goddess of life's divine magic, but to "take away the wound". The injury was taken away, and the person was naturally healthy.

Injury and death are also the realms of the Elder Sleep Gurus, and the Elder Sleep Tutor can naturally decide whether these concepts go or stay.

Generally speaking, for a mourner, he should only be able to use harmless chants once a day.

But there was no such thing in the magical message Roland received - which meant that he could use it at will, making himself nearly immortal.

Although this is a life-saving ability that the Elder Sleep Mentor specially gave to Roland. But as long as the Sleeping Master agrees, Roland can also use the power of the Sleeping Master to heal others. Especially for those who have no faith, the power of the Eternal Sleep Teacher has a great possibility to influence them.

As long as the timing is right. Roland could have done a great miracle.

…… For example, in an area plagued by plague or earthquakes, they come as a savior and heal their injuries instantly with a prayer of innocence.

That's the case. Presumably they will bow down and pray in the name of the Guru in good faith, right?

After all. As a vote person, Roland has one advantage that no other pastor can match—that is, he has no charisma.

In other words, as long as the Elder Sleep Master agrees, Roland's blue stripe is equivalent to infinity.

It's like all kinds of prayers, all of which cost God's grace.

Roland is now a trainee mourner, and he has not opened the special energy bar of the mourner's profession at all, and theoretically he can't even sing a single prayer.

But he could not only sing it, but he also sang the full version of the prayer directly. And not a cut-out version of the prayer like Claude.

The ability to perform the prayer technique independently and repeatedly in its entirety, which requires a joint prayer of a choir to be sung in its entirety, is the strategic deterrent of the elect.

That's why. Roland would say that mourning is a perfect fit for his profession.

As long as Roland's injury-free chant can be sung in its entirety, his own injuries will be fully recovered. This infinite ability to fully recover is now Roland's greatest reliance.

By the time Roland gets the Chant of Decay, the Chant of Silence, and the Chant of Despair in the future, with the weapon master's reflexes and powerful attack power, he should be able to deal with all kinds of multiple situations.

Speaking of which, though......

Roland looked down at Claudia's sleeping face and frowned slightly.

If Claudia wasn't a priest, how did she use the light spell?

At that time, Roland could see it clearly, and the runes floating out of her fingertips were definitely divine runes.

Moreover, did Claude even know that, as a district bishop, his direct disciples were not even followers of the goddess of war?

Bansar is not the same as Carral. As in most countries, those who do not have faith are despised and rejected by the general public.

In their mindset, which is not much more complex than noodles, not having faith means not keeping the precepts, and it means that it is easy to become a cultist—even though the two things are not really related.

After all, the gods are not saints, they just steal their authority, and they cannot understand the actions of their believers. It is normal for believers not to keep the precepts, and those who obey the precepts are already considered excellent believers, and those who abide by the precepts are strict with themselves...... It doesn't take long to live.

If the gods were omniscient and omnipotent, Marco's tragedy would not have been born at all.

However, it is precisely because of this that the gods punish the gods who pretend to be their priests and deceive them.

If Claudia is not a priest of the goddess of war, it would be good if she was shaken out and burned at the stake.

As long as the Inquisitor and Claude had the slightest feud, Claude Sr. would have to be punished with silver along with Claudia.

"Interesting ......"

Roland's eyes narrowed.

If nothing else, old Claude should not have known about this.

You know, believers who have been put to death by the three punishments will not be able to enter the kingdom of God.

There was nothing more cruel than this punishment for old Claude. He would rather be boiled alive than be punished with silver.

In order to avoid this possibility, it is very likely that Claude will kill Claudia directly. Even for attacking the daughter of the Count, who is now a viscount, it would be more merciful to be beheaded than to die.

Moreover, as a bishop of the district, he was equal to a viscount. There's even a good chance he'll be fine at all.

"So, do you have to hide it from Claude......

Roland looked down at Claudia's sleeping face and the silver swastika that was gradually emerging on her forehead, sighed deeply, stopped her by the crook of her legs, and picked her up and walked towards the inner sanctum.

Kruvien will find this place in a moment. If he sees it, I'm afraid I'll have to go straight back to Claude.

At that time, the probability that Claudia's identity will be discovered by Claude is much higher. You know, she is now a believer in the Sage, and some low-level divine arts have lost their effect on her.

"Boss, your style of doing things is to force honest people to a dead end......"

Roland sighed deeply again.

Can't you wait until Roland asks Claudia to clarify the matter before marking it...... This is forcing himself and Claude to compete in acting.

Roland didn't have the confidence to face these old things who had been in the temple for sixty or seventy years. The reason why I was able to barely gain the upper hand before was only because of the imbalance of information. Once Claude has too much contact with Roland, some of Roland's lies will naturally be exposed.

Now, Roland must explain everything to Claudia, and then ask Claude for details.

- Finally, get rid of him directly.

Roland's half-squinted eyes flashed with a silver cold light.

Because of Roland's connections, the old priest lived a week longer than the established history...... How much, he should be satisfied, right? (To be continued......)
