William was politely invited out of the dean's room, and he took one last look at the dean's back, and the door slowly closed in front of him.

"What the hell does that mean?"

William withdrew, muttering in his heart, this inexplicable summons, inexplicable conversation, William didn't know what the dean's intentions were.

The trembling feeling, the wisdom that had gone through the vicissitudes of life, seemed to see through him.

If it's an opponent, it's really a headache, this kind of majesty is even more exaggerated than the vice principal who used to inspect the work with a straight face.

"Did the Dean say anything?" Father Bernard approached with an oil lamp.

William shook his head, his impression of the monastery was that of a huge tomb or even a prison, and the monks almost never left the monastery except for Father Bernard and the deacons in his hands, and it was a complete otaku organization.

I don't know if the abbot has been an otaku for so long that his ability to speak has deteriorated, and he can't even understand what the abbot means.

"What the Dean thinks must be the crystallization of wisdom, and what he says to you must be words of wisdom. There were so many hermits in the monastery that no one could compare to the abbot, even in the entire empire, and if he wanted to, he would have already put on a red robe. ”

Father Bernard was full of confidence in the dean, looked at the confused William and said, "What the dean said must have a deep meaning. ”

"Meaning?"

William looked at the convincing Godfather Bernard, he always felt that this was the abbot, the old man might be bored in the monastery, and summoned him to chat casually.

"You'll have to experience this for yourself." Father Bernard shrugged his shoulders and patted William on the shoulder, ending the unnutritious conversation.

Father Bernard left with the lamp, and William looked around, only to feel colder.

It turned out that using the holy sword to shine also required his own physical strength, so William quickly extinguished the light of the holy sword and ran to the church of the monastery with a trembling heart.

Dean's room

Everything was so quiet that Father Bernard went into the abbot's room and saw the abbot standing under the cross.

The Dean did not enter a state of rest as William said, he held a sword with a faint holy light on it, if William was here, he would find that the sword in the Dean's hand was exactly the same as the Holy Sword Dawn in his hand.

"What's the matter? Bernard. The dean held the sword in his hand and did not look back at Father Bernard behind him.

"Dean, I don't understand?" Bernard said respectfully.

"What don't you understand?" The Dean placed the holy sword in the box and looked back at the confused Bernard.

"Why William?"

Father Bernard raised his head and looked up at the abbot, he was puzzled and did not understand, "There are many people in this world, whether it is Francis the Brave, or Hans, or even the Knight of Lane, in the kingdom of Thorne, in the entire territory of the empire, there are many capable warriors, they are of noble character, noble birth, extraordinary ability, and countless people can show the great cause of St. George to slay the dragon, these people are far more suitable than William. Dean, I don't understand why William? ”

"It was not the Holy Sword that chose William, but William who chose the Holy Sword."

The dean shook his head, and seeing Bernard's puzzlement, he slowly walked to the bookshelf, and said as he walked, "Everything is arranged by God. ”

"The dawn symbolizes hope, it is the light of the dawn, it was already a holy sword during the Roman Empire, but since the end of the time of Otto the Great, the dawn has been lost in the war, and now the holy sword that attends various ceremonies is all fakes, my one, the one in the hands of Archbishop Rhine, including the one in the hands of William."

The abbot spoke unhurriedly, telling the horror of Father Bernard that the Dawning Sword was a fake, which was simply unimaginable, but looking at Abbot Tairuo's natural appearance, he vaguely understood that it was probably not a secret to the high-ranking people of the church.

"If it's a fake, why does Archbishop Rhine have to take it back?"

Father Bernard humbly asked, "My lord, it is a great sin to forge holy relics, and it will be burned at the stake." ”

Archbishop Rhine is one of the three archbishops of the empire, with a respected status, according to the system of the empire, he is also the prime minister of the empire, with great power, and there are many examples in history of the archbishop overthrowing the emperor and becoming the regent himself.

"This is not a forged holy artifact, of course there may be, after all, three or four hundred holy swords have been made, and there are nearly a thousand on the market."

The dean said uncertainly, there were already nearly a thousand holy swords on the market in the entire Christian world, and he didn't dare to pack a ticket at this time.

"Is there anything special about William's holy sword?" Bernard was a little worried about William, after all, Piff was innocent, and Huaibi was guilty.

"After the disappearance of the Dawning Sword, in order to hold a ceremony after the disappearance of the Dawning Sword, the Pope and the Emperor canonized the Dawn, which is also the origin of its Sacred Sword. At the same time, some clergy and nobles were allowed to have the right to use these auxiliary weapons. ”

The dean took out the holy sword in the box and threw it to Father Bernard, who looked at the holy sword thrown over, grabbed it, and then found that the holy sword actually emitted a hot and dazzling light.

Bernard shook as he realized that he was able to use the Holy Sword as well.

"Theoretically, the wielder of the sword was either a morally immaculate saint or a warrior of strength and courage, which in essence corresponded to a clergyman and a nobleman. The person of the holy sword is a saint, and the believer is able to convey prayers by calling the name of the saint, so the secondary instruments are borrowed from the power of the holy sword. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Even if you have the power to use the secondary weapon, you can't slay the dragon, after all, it's just a secondary weapon."

The dean scoffed that any holy relics should be kept in the church and sealed, not taken out for use.

It's just that every time the church holds a large-scale event, it has to take out the holy relics to raise the faith of the believers, and in order not to destroy the holy relics, the holy relics will be imitated, and the imitations (auxiliary objects) will be displayed as holy relics.

Therefore, this is also the reason why the relics of Jesus can circle the earth several times. Falsification of holy relics is to be grilled, but imitation of holy relics is legal, provided that it is approved by the Church, which is the "secondary instrument" of the holy relics.

As long as it is recognized, the secondary device has the power of the positive part.

"So, that's why Francis the Brave failed." Bernard muttered.

Taking a pirated and imitation holy sword to slaughter the genuine, the real dragon is naturally a dead end.

"No, there are other reasons for the failure of the brave, although the merits he has made are genuine, but the means to complete the task are ......"

The dean frowned and said, "In Greek mythology, Hercules completed his ten feats, but Iason used Hera and Medea to use this opportunistic way, and the final result was that Hercules became Hercules, and Iason was alone until old age, and was finally stoned to death by the bow of the ship. ”

The physique of people cannot be generalized, and the same is true between heroes and heroes.

Francis accomplished three feats, one of which was to kill the giant by using a stratagem to cause both giants to lose, and then take the opportunity to pick up the leak.

To destroy the demons, it was Francis who held the holy sword and used the attributes of the holy sword to destroy the demons.

The blessing of the Archbishop of the Rhine is, of course, a merit, but the water is too great.

A knight who can be canonized as a knight is naturally a real knight, even if the level between knights and knights cannot be generalized.

There is no doubt that Francis accomplished these three feats, that he is a true braver.

Every great feat, great cause is a tempering for heroes, which can enhance the reputation and strength of heroes.

Hercules established his kingdom and became a god himself, while Iason always relied on opportunism and eventually died.

"There was once a brave man, when he first became famous, he was just a little tailor, and he killed seven flies, but he shouted everywhere, and wrote on the back of his clothes, that he had killed seven, and that everyone did not know what was going on, and the hunter thought he had killed seven wild boars, and the giants thought he had killed seven giants, and the king thought he had killed seven knights. For a while, he seemed to have become a great person. ”

Father Bernard told the Dean the story he had heard from Mr. Green, the Bard, who simply smiled.

Suddenly, a dragon's roar sounded outside the monastery, and the monk on duty struck the bell, and the abbot and Father Bernard had horror on their faces.

The dragon is coming!

Damn, we don't have a princess in the monastery, so why is this dragon coming to the monastery?
