Chapter 60: Friends
Recovering his mind, Al discovers that this is his usual hotel, and asks the innkeeper to bring food.
"Can I invite you to dine with you?" said Pastor Liena, looking at the food and then at Lina, wondering if she had eaten or not.
"No, I've eaten it. Lena smiled and refused
Al did not have the frustration of being rejected by a beautiful lady, and gobbled up politely.
"You've got a good appetite and you're recovering quickly. ”
"It's that the food here is delicious, otherwise maybe I'll sleep a little longer. Al sensitively diverted the subject.
The two chatted lightly, and Al was afraid that outsiders were there, so he didn't dare to eat too much. After eating only one roast chicken, two roast hares, a mushroom soup, three sausages, and three huge fresh meat pies, I didn't dare to eat any more. Jean, who also prepared a roast lamb chop leg and dozens of skewers of mountain delicacies, stewed a whole pork chop in the pot and was ready to continue cooking food, was stunned.
The innkeeper comforted her confidently
"There is probably a lady in Chief Al who is embarrassed to eat, you prepare first, and after a while Pastor Lena leaves, Chief Al will definitely come down secretly to eat again. In the past, Chief Al had the appetite to go, so where did it go?"
Sauls's story of protecting the last remaining villagers against the mad druids and thousands of wild beasts has long been spread by the church. It not only calmed the hearts of the people, but also brought them great prestige.
Al was also promoted to vice-captain of the Saulse team.
Al was promoted to Sauls' lieutenant and was also honored by the Church of Light.
"You deserve to be commended for your kindness, bravery, loyalty, and courage in the face of great evil, and Galil has told me everything in the kingdom of the Lord. "Knight Mike, a middle-aged man in silver armor, stood in the center of the Hall of the Church of Light.
Listening to the voice was the last of the powerful clerics of the Church of Light.
"This sword, called Perseverance, was used in Garyl's training as a teenager, and is now presented to you, in the hope that you will continue to maintain your noble character. You are always welcome at the gates of the Church of Light. ”
This sentence is a vague willingness to recruit him as a knight of the church, although Al is only thirteen years old, he has this strength and quality.
But Al has no interface, he has just started a new life, and the path of his dream has already taken the first step, how can he become a knight of the church, or the state religion of a hostile country.
Al took the sword, this silver-white sword had a delicate pattern, and there were some signs of wear on the hilt, and the length was just right for Al to be tall. The texture is far beyond that of ordinary iron metal, and the quality seems to be very good.
Thinking of the last firm smile of the heroic female knight, Al couldn't help but fade from the irritability of those crazy druids.
After Aldao thanked him, he left the Church of Light, and in addition to this long sword, there were also fifty gold coins rewarded by the city lord. Sols and the others had their part, having already celebrated during Arles' recuperation, celebrating the aftermath of their lives.
In addition to these honors, Al was also rejected by all the churches of the Nature God lineage. Because of the fear of Al, several druids who guaranteed a good harvest and healed the crops quietly left all the nearby villages, and his notoriety for killing druids spread rapidly, and Al was even attacked by fanatics who believed in the Mother Earth, Lady Harvest and other churches during his patrols several times.
The carnage was far away from them, and they could not even feel the grief inside. Ignorant mortals only care about the harvest and the quality of their crops.
Even if the lord of the castle posted a notice announcing the crimes of these cruel druids, it would still be of no avail.
"You demon in human skin! Executioner, filthy butcher!"
Al grabbed a child who had attempted to assassinate him with a dagger, and his disgust with the fading nature gods returned.
Maybe it seems funny to outsiders, you are a mortal, and you dare to dislike the entire natural god system. But Al is an atheist, and he only has a few words about the gods of this world, so he doesn't have much respect.
A peasant woman hurriedly begged Al to ask him to return the child to him, but her eyes could not hide her hatred and fear for him.
Al returned the child to the peasant woman and continued his patrol indifferently.
"Why are you still here. "Back at the hotel, because of the successive fanatical assassinations of ignorant civilians, Al has no good opinion of all the churches of the natural god lineage, and he has a bad tone towards Pastor Lina.
"I'm here to say goodbye to you. The dignified and graceful Pastor Lena smiled at Al, not caring about Al's tone, like a mature sister looking at her angry brother.
"Yes. Al answered, he couldn't do anything to speak ill of the smiling man.
Except for the revenge and anger organization with a sick brain, he, a high-level intellectual, has never spoken ill of anyone in his past and present lives.
"We should be friends, aren't you too cold?"
"Doesn't the Church of Nature hate me?"
"No, those were just malicious slanders from the druids you threatened that day. These rumors will end on the next holy day, you don't have to worry too much" Lena didn't care about Al's attitude, but smiled and took Al's right hand, and put a golden bracelet of ears of grain on Al's hand.
"Holy day, what is this?" asked Al, looking at the bracelet.
"The Holy Day is the day of our Lord's monthly sacrifice, and all the priests go to the fields to inspect the grain and livestock. It's like the day we first met. They believe in our Lord, and Our Lord will not forsake them."
"This is our church's thank you for protecting our believers, an ear of gold. Six grains of golden wheat can be conjured every day, which can be used to grow high-quality wheat and can also be used as gold coins. ”
Magical strange things, Al Qiqi picked it up and looked at it carefully, shook the ears of wheat, and six lifelike golden wheat fell out, Al was amazed. The childish look made Pastor Lena chuckle and stepped forward to gently hug Al.
"It is time for me to leave, and may the full joy always be with you. ”
Speaking of leaving, Al wants to get out of here too. Sheriff Will did not treat him like a prisoner, but was rewarded for the incident.
It wasn't like he hadn't thought about sneaking away while on patrol before, but he would be wanted as a deserter.
In this world, the connection between the cities of the country is not as close as imagined, and all the lords of the city are hereditary. He's a guard in Mesantan, and he's running to another place, not a big problem, but his identification will interest bounty hunters, who will trade his head for a bounty in the Adventure Guild.
And his gold coins are running out, and his daily food expenses are about two gold coins, and this hotel can survive on his own. In addition to the patrol of daily work, I practice swordsmanship and martial arts at the security headquarters when I have nothing to do. He is now living alone in an unfamiliar environment, and he will inevitably have to travel in the future. There are countless dangers like the cult's vengeful fury invasion this time, and relying on his few spells that he has figured out to die with a single move, sooner or later he will be violent in the wilderness.
What's more, it is backed by a forest, and there are countless pharmacists. He has no competition other than making magic potions that take a lot of effort and time.
