Resolute, Ratis finally met the person in charge of the church, Father Mia.

This is a man with an expressionless face and facial features as resolute as an axe and a knife, not very old, at most no more than thirty years old, it is when he is in the prime of life, his strong and broad body and slender and powerful figure also prove this, what makes people care is that he has a dignified momentum on his body, which makes him look extremely stable and full of aura, not like a young man······ , No, it's not so much that he has a calm temperament, but that he shouldn't get close to people.

Standing in front of him, even in the warm church will give people a chilling cold feeling, Latis was speechless for a while, the two stared at each other, and the atmosphere was cold for a while, making the nun Lilith on the side smile bitterly and speechless.

Is such a guy really fit to be a priest, and can a seeker really speak to him?

This is what Radis thought in his heart when he saw him.

"I've heard of you, apprentice to magic at Rose Manor. ”

Unexpectedly, it was actually this priest who looked like an ice sculpture who took the lead in speaking and directly revealed the identity of Radis: "Do the so-called truth-seekers also need God's guidance?"

It seems that unlike the nun, as the head of the church here, this one clearly knew about Radis.

Because his tone was too stiff and old-fashioned, Sister Lilith on the side was embarrassed, and hurriedly advised: "Father Mia, the other party is still a child, don't be so serious, right?"

The expressionless priest turned to look at her and said, "Sister Lilith, I think you need to prepare some tea for our little guest, perhaps so that he can feel the warmth and grace of the gods." ”

"Hmm······ Well, wait a minute. ”

Lilith glanced at Radix helplessly, and her bright eyes conveyed an apologetic look, hoping that he would be able to bear with him, and then turned to leave.

Father Mia glanced down at Latis, then turned to lead the way: "Come in first, sit down and tell me the purpose of your visit." ”

Ratis could sense a hostility and wariness in him, but he didn't know if it was only directed at him, or if it was aimed at all mage professionals—the fantasy novels of his previous life had taught him that the pastordial law had always been a rival.

Of course, the previous words were just excuses, and Mia naturally wouldn't really bring him into the confessional room, and the two sat down face to face at a square table in front of them.

Ratis organized his language, and felt that it was probably inappropriate to directly point out his intention in such an awkward atmosphere, so he spoke: "I'm sorry to disturb your rest, and I'll forgive you for the rudeness." ”

The priest didn't seem to eat this, but said quietly: "The rumors are indeed true." ”

"What?"

"It's obviously a child, but you have to look mature and steady when you talk and act, hasn't anyone told you that it's strange?"

Not caring about his tone, Ratis joked a little narcissistically: "I don't think there's anything strange about it, geniuses are like that." ”

"The same goes for heterogeneous. ”

Radice couldn't help but twitch her eyelids, and asked out loud: "I don't quite understand, you seem to be a little hostile to me, is there any misunderstanding between us?"

The question, which opened the conversation, began to be counted at length by the expressionless priest: "Misunderstanding? I'm afraid not, since you came, the operation of the church has been in trouble, there is no doubt about it. ”

"Huh?" What does it have to do with me that the church is in trouble?

"Don't you understand??,There are no wandering monsters and beasts nearby,And the edge of the forest is occupied by you and set up an enchantment,Causing the monsters to disappear,Adventurers who want to hunt must bypass this area to other places,Before, they would come to the church to receive the blessings of various blessings before setting out on adventures,But now after a long journey,By the time they hunt,The effect of temporary blessings has often dissipated,So they lose the need to receive blessings······ Since your appearance few have come to receive the blessings, and they have given up the opportunity to bask in the light of God. ”

He makes sense, but why does it feel like something is wrong?

Latis thought for a moment and asked in a low voice, "I take the liberty of asking, there is a charge for blessings, right?"

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere immediately fell silent again, and Father Mia looked at him with a cold face, and did not speak, but the meaning was already self-evident - what do you say?

Latis's mouth twitched for a while, and he only felt that there was a sentence in his heart that he didn't know whether to say or not: "! It turned out to be for money?!You are such a cold boss, and you are still a clergyman, or I really don't know that you are a dead man who wants money! This is completely inconsistent with your temperament?

"Money is secondary, and affecting the spread of my god's brilliance is the biggest problem!"

There is no need to add this sentence in particular! Even if you say this now, you will no longer have any credibility! The image of greed for money can no longer be changed!

Complaining in his heart and smiling on his face, Laceis asked very embarrassedly, "I'm really sorry for causing you so much trouble, but it shouldn't matter if that's it, right?

As he spoke, he took a closer look at the environment in the church, and the first feeling was that it was clean and tidy, and the windows were bright and clean, and the second feeling was that it was gentle and comfortable.

At this moment, Sister Lilith also came over with the prepared tea, and gently placed it in front of the two of them.

"Thank you. ”

Latis nodded in thanks, and the gentle and lovely nun returned the favor with a kind smile and bent down to take her leave.

Mia picked up the teacup and took a sip of black tea, probably thinking it was too hot, so she blew and answered his question flatly:

"Of course, it's not just that, it could have provided some permanently blessed magic equipment for devout believers, but recently, this income has also been greatly reduced, as if it was because the town didn't know when a magic weapon sales channel appeared······"

Laceis just picked up the teacup, and a sip of black tea just entered his mouth, and after hearing this sentence, he almost squirted out, and he was so uncomfortable.

Well, it seems that we were born to rush and we're really sorry to steal your business······

Mia kept looking at him as she spoke, her eyes bright, and she seemed to know that the magic weapon in the town came from Radis, but he didn't say it thoroughly, put down the teacup and continued flatly:

"This town belongs to adventurers, and without these two incomes, it can only maintain basic operations at most by relying on the offerings of ordinary believers and some healing fees, but it is impossible to better spread the glory of our Lord, for these reasons, I have been questioned by the bishop of the church in the main city many times······ You should already be able to figure it out when I say that, if you really have that genius as you say it is. ”

Radis blinked his eyes and said that he understood: Isn't it just that the performance has decreased, which has affected his career!

Not only did he understand the superficial meaning of his words, but he also understood the deeper meaning.

Why is this guy telling himself this?

Before he recognized himself, and guessed that he must have had a need for a magic apprentice who had come to the church on purpose, he said these words, made his position clear, and then told him cryptically:

You see that you have caused me so much loss, so no matter what you want from me, do you have to compensate me first to make up for our relationship?

No matter what you do, the position of both parties is very important, and only when the premise of cooperation can be reached can we talk about the rest of the matter.

It can only be said that the current clergy routines are already so deep?

A guy with such an honest appearance can actually play tricks with a straight face······

Sure enough, none of the people in the line of dry gods are simple goods.

Fortunately, the other party's needs are not difficult for Radis, money is just something outside the body, and in order to complete his experiment, Radis does not mind spending some money.

No way, who teaches himself to ask for others?

Knowing the other party's needs, Latis breathed a sigh of relief, only to see his eyes roll, and a serious expression appeared on his immature face: "That······ Father Mia, there is one thing I did not tell you, in fact, I am a devout believer······"

"Oh?" said the expressionless priest, looking slightly surprised.

"I have always felt that the gods are majestic and benevolent beings, and although we mages pursue the truth of the law, who can prove that the gods themselves have nothing to do with the truth?

"Novel point of view, maybe I had some misunderstanding about you before, I thought you were a lost lamb who had strayed from the guidance of the gospel, but I didn't think that you had already embarked on the glorious path to heaven. ”

Your whole family is the kingdom of heaven!

Laces pursed his lips secretly and continued, "As a humble believer, I have always wanted to add a small amount of luster to the glory of my lord, but unfortunately I have never been able to find the right opportunity, but now I know what to do······"

As he spoke, Latis untied the pocket of money on his waist and quietly pushed it in front of the priest: "A little heart, I hope to be able to contribute to the construction of the Lord's kingdom on earth, if you don't mind, we can have more contacts in the future, I hope I can feel more of the teachings of the gods in the future······"

Father Mia glanced at the bulging pocket in front of him, and the glittering light that emerged from the gap in the mouth of the bag seemed to contain endless temptation.

He retracted his gaze expressionlessly, looked at the immature little face of Radis, and said lightly: "Thank you for your contribution to the church, the Lord has taught us that the living beings of the glorious faith should be equal and fraternal, let us work together, all for the glory of the Lord." ”

"Yes, for the glory of the Lord. ”
