Chapter 109: The Cathedral of San Nebiro
As soon as it was dawn, the members of Lace's team rode in a carriage to the Cathedral of San Nebiro.
Today's event, on the one hand, is Red's repeated request, after all, after Red followed Farath out on an adventure, he has never "gone home"; on the other hand, Farath has not stopped saying that the Cathedral of San Nebiro can be said to be the highest expression of the artistic achievements of the Holy Alliance Empire, and now everyone has come to the imperial capital, but they don't go to see it, it is really a pity.
When Ryan stepped into the Basilica of San Nebiro, the solemnity of the huge main hall of the church contrasted sharply with the noisy and lively streets outside the door.
The morning sun shines through the skylights of the church, illuminating the huge space in the church. The first thing that caught the Lace team's eye was the huge statue of the God of Light. This idol is a work of the time of Fernando I and was erected here at the moment when the Basilica of San Nebiro was built.
The idol is a young man dressed in extremely simple clothes, and it is said that this is the image of the supreme god of light in the continent of Eslar. The man shows off his toned muscles and delicate textures, and even the crepe folds of his clothes are lifelike, flowing as naturally as if they were real. The man held his head high, and his eyes were blazing into the distance, as if he was looking at the suffering of the world, and people couldn't help but bow and worship when they saw it.
On either side of the church, the god of war wearing golden armor, holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other, and the god of wisdom holding a green staff and a silver-white robe in the other.
"It is said that hundreds of thousands of years ago, the God of Light defeated the demons and banished them to another world. In that protracted war, the god of war and wisdom was the right-hand man of the god of light. ”
Faras added: "Actually, the members of the Royal Knights are all believers in the God of War, but there are not many who can be blessed by the God of War, most of them are secondary gods or divine servants to which the God of War belongs, and the magicians of the Royal Academy of Magic are all believers in the God of Wisdom, including me, of course." ”
"What about you, Red?" Ryan asked, "Who does the pastor of the Church of Light believe in?"
"It's the supreme god of light!" a voice came.
Everyone followed the sound and saw an old man standing next to him, wearing a black robe with gold trim and a dark gold crown on his head, who was Red's teacher, the Archbishop of the Church of Light, and the High Light Priest, Master Ibel.
Red hurriedly bowed deeply to the old man and said, "Teacher." ”
Master Iberr smiled at everyone, and the members of Lace's team immediately felt warm and indescribably comfortable in their hearts.
"You're here at last," Master Ibel said to Ryan in surprise, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”
"Wait for me?" Ryan pointed to himself in amazement, and asked Master Iber, "Master, I have been living in my hometown before, and it stands to reason that you should not have heard my name, why do you say that you have been waiting for me for a long time?"
A kind smile always appeared on Master Iber's face, and he said to Red, "Take your friends around, I have a few words to say to Ryan." ”
"Yes, teacher. Red reverently bowed to Master Iber, and then walked out with the others, who seemed to have gotten some kind of hint and had long since left. Now in the hall of the church, only Master Ibel and Ryan were left, and they seemed to be able to hear their own heartbeats.
Ryan's mind was full of questions, and he looked at Master Iber, hoping for an answer.
"Rayne," said Master Iber, softly, "I have heard your name for a long time, for I have been on adventures with your teacher. That was a long, long time ago......"
Master Ibel seemed to be immersed in the memories of the past.
"After the Battle of Sunrise, humanity won the final victory, but the earth was eroded by the undead, and people still lived in fear, Bruce Nebiro took a book full of the blessings of the gods of light - "Praise of Light", and traveled alone throughout the continent of Eslar, spreading the blessings of the gods of light to every corner, he dispelled fear and confusion for the world, and brought light and hope to everyone. ”
"Later, when Master Nebiro was old, he returned here. In the Cathedral of San Nebiro in the imperial capital, Master Nebiro received a heroic welcome, but Master Nebiro was still worried about the world, although the army of the dead was defeated, but if people did not take strict precautions, they would make a comeback one day. However, Master Nebiro is already old, and he has more than enough strength to do it alone. So Master Nebiro announced in public that every priest of the Cathedral of San Nebiro would travel to the continent of Eslar for five years before the age of thirty. On the one hand, spread the gospel of the God of Light, and on the other hand, exercise your own strength. ”
"When I was young, I was just an ordinary pastor of the Church of Light, and I was inferior to others in terms of my understanding of the Praise of Light and the power I possessed. That year, I went on an adventure with a few friends, and at first, everything went smoothly for us, because in the city and in the bustling area, there was no one who didn't know about the Church of Light, and naturally there was no trouble. Later, we decided to separate because there was no exercise at all for such a journey. So, I embarked on an unknown journey alone. ”
"Under the favor of Lady Luck, I met your teacher, and at that time I didn't know his strength, and I thought he was just an ordinary magician, so we went together. ”
"What a desirable experience!" said Master Iber, sighing softly, with infinite regret, "Unfortunately, I will never have the opportunity to take such an adventure again. ”
"The adventure was thrilling and fulfilling, and I slowly experienced the state of mind of Master Nebiro during this trip. Finally, I received the blessing of the God of Light, and at that moment, I cried excitedly. After returning to the Basilica of San Nephiro, I became a cardinal. ”
"Your teacher and I have become good friends in life and death, and we used to participate in the Royal Athletic Tournament together, but at that time, the competitive competition was still a personal performance, and I was eliminated in the first round, hehe. ”
Ryan laughed along with Master Iber.
