Chapter 57: Going Home is Just a Duty
According to Xena, holy water was given to humans by the goddess of light to modify genetic defects. Holy relics', so this thing must not be lost, every drop must be used in practice, and it must also be used on human beings with great potential, after all, the greater the number of strong human beings, in order to have a deterrent effect on alien races, and to maintain the hegemony of human beings, so at the beginning, the Holy See was to envelop all the strong people in the human race, and regularly distribute holy water to them, but then the Holy See found that the older the human being, the less effective the use of taking holy water......
After all, the lifespan of human beings is too short, as long as the body function begins to decline after the age of 60, so even if they take holy water, it only delays their aging, and does not play a big role in the improvement of genes. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Since the older ones can't do it, then it is useful to give it to children, but it also has little effect, because the younger the age, the lower the strength, although the progress is very obvious after just taking the holy water, but after a few years of waiting for the power of the holy water to subside, what should it be or what should be! The most important thing is that because of the young age, it is not easy to judge who has the potential to become a strong person, after all, everything is uncontrollable in the physical growth stage of children, although some people have performed very well in the front but their qualifications are actually very average, and some people are recognized as stupid when they are young, but later once they 'open their minds' are super geniuses, they may not be able to say, so after wasting a lot of holy water as tuition, the Holy See finally found that young people over the age of sixteen and under the age of twenty-five are the best candidates to use the holy water.
And this is also the real purpose and origin of the God of War Competition!
However, due to the fact that the Church of Light also needs to take into account its own survival and the maintenance of its own interests, the holy water produced every year will not be taken out as a reward, but will be retained by the Holy See for a considerable part, which also determines that the God of War Contest can only be held once every four years, but in any case, it is the only chance for people outside the Church of Light to have access to the holy water, and it is also the only chance to completely change their own destiny......
That's why Carey is so active in hosting the God of War Competition this time, on the one hand, holding this world-renowned event can greatly enhance the reputation and social status of Stowe City, and on the other hand, it ...... As a host, there will always be some convenience, as long as you can take advantage of the right time and place to send Kevin's house to the finals, then Kevin can get holy water, although the portion will not be much, but don't forget that Kevin is only sixteen years old this year, so four years later and another four years later, he still has two more chances!!
If he can get the holy water three times, even if Kevin is a real demon martial arts waster, he can become a peerless master, not to mention that he is not!
Although Carey didn't understand why those old guys in the Holy See had to ask Kevin to participate, this was of course a good thing for Kevin, so Carey secretly guessed that Arthurs, who is now the archbishop, was working behind his back, after all, Xena had also told him some of Arthurs's thoughts just now, so naturally Kaili was very strong against his 'ignorant' son, and insisted that he must return to Stowe City!
Because it's for the future of my son!!
And if it weren't for Zina's explanation, Kevin would probably never have known that behind Carey's tough and irreversible attitude was his completely selfless dedication to his son, and this is fatherly love, heavy fatherly love.
So after a short silence, Kevin finally collected his mood and went back, anyway...... It is rare for Stowe City to usher in such a grand ceremony, how can he, as a young city lord, be absent?
Kevin's strength was not good in the past, so he always avoided everything intentionally or unintentionally, but from now on, he should also take on the responsibility he carries!
It's just that when he faced Alicia the next morning, and then enjoyed the exquisite breakfast that she had spent a night preparing, Kevin's words that he had prepared before were unspeakable!
In the end, it was Alicia who first noticed Kevin's anomaly, "Kevin, do you have anything to say here......? Am I not making it delicious? I asked my mother to help me make it all night!"
"No, it's delicious, I love it!" Kevin finally said after a few struggles, and then he sighed deeply, "It's just that I'm leaving the Holy Capital soon...... I'm sorry, Alicia!"
"Leave??Where are you going??" Alicia was really taken aback, and even the things in her hand fell directly to the ground at once.
"Back to Stowe...... Because this year's God of War Contest will be held in Stowe City, my father has asked me to rush back today!" Kevin hesitated, "Alicia, I'm really a little reluctant to ...... However, as the young city lord of Stowe City, I must also do my part for Stowe City at this time, so ......"
"What??" Obviously, Alicia didn't know the latest news about the God of War Competition, so when Kevin's mouth knew about it, her expression was quite stunned, "The God of War Competition is going to be held in Stowe City this year??...... Will you participate?"
"Of course!" Kevin nodded, "This is a responsibility I can't escape...... My father has been too tired over the years, and as a young city lord, it's time for me to share some things for him, just like this God of War Competition, I will let the whole continent know that there are also strong people in Stowe City, and Stowe City has never been an outcast of human beings, at least, the Lyman family is not!"
"Kevin, I'm behind you!" Alicia suddenly rushed into Kevin's arms, "because I will also be surnamed Lyman next, and because I believe in my man...... He is a peerless hero who will not lose to his father!"
"Alicia!"
"So, let's go back......" Acylia reached out to hug Kevin's face, and then decisively pressed her lips to his mouth, "I will convince my father as soon as possible, and then find a way to transfer to Stowe City as well, I will be with you!"
“......”
Therefore, if it weren't for the sudden earthquake in St. Clair, Kevin would have stayed in the Holy Capital for a while, at least according to Carey's plan, this time would have been at least half a year, and the people in Stowe City would have almost forgotten Kevin, and when the Carman family had almost let go of this mustard, Kevin would come back and honestly admit his mistake, and send the dowry over again by the way......
After all, she had already promised to marry Kevin Lyman, and it was not too easy for the daughter of the Carman family to marry someone else, even if someone didn't have to worry about the position of the city lord of Kyri's Stowe, but it was more or less necessary to weigh whether it was cost-effective to offend the most powerful swordsman of the human race, who had the most hope of breaking through the tenth order!
Similarly, the Kaman family will also weigh this gain and loss, even if they are unwilling, they also know very well that this marriage has long been impossible to change, so everyone is just acting tacitly in the end...... Obviously unwilling, but he still refuses to say it to death, the purpose is just to bargain!
But just when the Kaman family was sitting on the ground and raising prices, there was suddenly a very unhappy news that made them very unhappy......
Kevin is back!(To be continued.) )
