What woke Kakarit from his deep stupor was a warm sensation coming from his right shoulder.

It felt like a hand on his right shoulder, but there was a warm current slowly flowing through his body, and his frostbitten body was washed by the warm current, giving out unbearable itching.

Inexplicably, Kakarit remembered the merciful adult.

That's how he slapped his hand on the shoulder.

He used to say-

"You're not wrong."

A wide and gentle voice rang in my ears.

That's right, that's how he is......

- Not true! That's not an illusion!

Kakarit snapped his eyes open.

Sure enough, the familiar, benevolent, and generous figure stood quietly in front of him like this, just standing here, the simple and old black robe seemed to separate the chaotic world behind him from here.

…… Is it the Blighter?

Suddenly, Kakarit burst into tears.

He felt the rapid healing of the wounds on his body, felt the warm hand pull him back from the edge of hell, and couldn't help but cry bitterly.

"You're saved." The black-robed man in front of Kakarit said softly and in a low voice.

"Thank you, thank you......"

Kakarit fell to his knees, his voice shaking.

He bit down on the three nails in his right hand and pulled them out violently, blackened and viscous blood flowing quickly from the wound.

Kakarit felt the flesh on his hands twist and slowly join, and he gave out a sharp itch, but he felt extremely happy in his heart.

Greedily took a breath of cold and faintly scorched air, and his eyes couldn't stop crying.

That's what it is...... What does it feel like to be alive?

He looked up at Roland. I felt that he was so affinity and greatness, and I couldn't help but have an impulse in my heart.

"Your Excellency...... Can I kiss your left hand? ”

"Absolutely. Child," Roland's voice was hoarse and soft. Like a kind old man, "You can kiss my fingertips." ”

"- When I put the ring on my left hand, I will give you the right to kiss my ring."

――――――

"Cast successfully, consumes 4 points of natural energy, current natural energy is 26/30"

"Unleash the healing touch again."

Roland thought to himself.

So the light green light lit up twice in the palm of his left hand, but because his left hand pressed tightly on the homeless man's right shoulder, he would not be seen by outsiders.

In fact, Roland almost laughed when he saw the face of this "tramp".

This poor man, who had obviously been tortured, was the priest of the dark lord he had tortured on Qingguo Avenue in the first place.

Everybody knows. Because the priest wants to synchronize his spirit with the gods, the will of the low-level priest is extremely weak, and it is impossible to hide things under torture.

This situation will continue until the priest enters the silver rank, and the spiritual alienation can be partially compensated. It is also for this reason that the bishops of each district must be above the silver rank. Otherwise, they would not be immune from some mind-deceptive sorcery and magic, and would easily be controlled by hostile forces.

So Roland chose that priest and asked him to leak the news of the Brain Eater to the people of Qingguo Avenue.

Truth be told, Roland really thought the priest was dead.

But he didn't expect it. The leader of Qingguo Avenue was so stupid that he didn't kill him after the torture.

Even if you're worried that the Prophecy Divine Technique will find you, you can find a subordinate to kill him, and then kill that subordinate.

It's just the life of one of his men. I can't even bear to do this. It doesn't deserve to be a big deal.

Even if the realm in charge of the Lord of Darkness is not a good thing, he is also a righteous god, not an evil god. And torment a righteous priest. It is a great sin everywhere, and it is light to condemn a heretic and then inject mercury.

After Roland's third use of the Healing Touch. Finally woke up the tortured amateur assassin.

The rest of the conversation was not at all expected by Roland.

Roland pressed the priest's right shoulder hard not only to hide the aura of witchcraft, but for other reasons.

That's a technique known in psychology as a "heart anchor."

The details will not be repeated. In short, because Roland pressed his right shoulder when he let him go before, when Roland pressed his right shoulder with the same force, he would unconsciously remember his mood at that time.

In order to prevent him from subconsciously attacking himself who was closest to him and had physical contact, Roland even used the friendly technique that had been cooled down with great difficulty.

As Roland expected, the priest pledged allegiance as soon as he calmed down.

In Faennes, the left hand has a special meaning.

Generally speaking, all enchanted rings must be worn on the right hand, and all rings worn on the left hand have a special meaning.

For example, wearing a ring on the little finger means that you are widowed, and wearing it on the middle finger means that you are forbidden. Desire and so on.

At the same time, kissing the back of the left hand has the meaning of proposing, and kissing the fingertips of the left hand represents allegiance.

And kissing the ring on the left hand means that the allegiance will receive the highest gift from the master.

For example, kissing a nobleman's ring means being a knight, and kissing a bishop's ring is even a rite of passage for a probationary priest.

But for a pastor, his allegiance has a special meaning.

If he could only kiss his fingertips, it would mean that he was putting Roland on an equal footing with the Lord of Darkness. In this case, he will be rejected by the Lord of Darkness, and the priest level will not be raised again.

But if he can kiss Roland's ring, it means that Roland has given him a higher status, and he can continue to be favored by the Lord of Darkness.

So after Roland said that, the priest of the Lord of Darkness looked ecstatic.

"So, what's your name?"

"Kakarit, my name is Kakarit, my lord."

The priest of the Lord of Darkness kissed Roland's fingertips, and then immediately prostrate himself on the ground, and replied respectfully.

"Now, Kakarit, you are going to make my name known in this city."

The corners of Roland's mouth were slightly the same, and he said in a gentle but majestic old voice: "With your personal experience, you will proclaim my name among the people." You have to convince them that there is mercy and mercy here, and that there is someone here who can forgive their sins. ”

After Kakarit bowed his head respectfully and said yes, and took the order to leave, old Joseph, who was hiding in the crowd, walked behind Roland with a complicated expression and asked softly, "My lord, how did you do it?" ”

He was puzzled by Kakarit's inexplicable allegiance.

There is nothing to explain this, though.

Roland just smiled, and then asked him, "Do you hear the water?" ”

"What?"

Old Joseph asked in confusion, and although he was a little dissatisfied with Roland's forcible change of subject, he still listened obediently.

It was not what he expected.

There's some kind of water sound -- and it's not very small.

It's like a waterfall, and something is flowing.

Listen to the sound...... I guess it's coming from an underground sewer?

"It's true that there is the sound of water...... What's wrong, my lord? This water sound ...... Does it represent? ”

Joseph Sr. realized that something was wrong, and lowered his voice to ask Roland.

Roland just shook his head and smiled softly: "It probably represents...... Destroy and redeem. ”

At that moment, Joseph Sr. seemed to hear a silver bell-like laugh flash through the void.

The intense uneasiness was like a poisonous snake, tightly entangled in his heart. (To be continued......)
