Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Gift of Light
Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Gift of Light
Although the signs of that day were that the wild undead in the mountains outside Tassie Town had been taken to the underworld by Mino's mother Miffy, in order not to damage the reputation of Mino's mother, and also to prevent Mino and Mina from being hostile to others, the two Minoan siblings and Carlos, who only knew the real reason for the undead's retreat, kept their mouths shut about it.
As a result, although everyone was able to save a small life because of the sudden retreat of the undead, no one else dared to guarantee that these undead creatures, who had already done a lot of irrational behavior, were planning some bigger conspiracy, and the whole town was in a very depressed and tense atmosphere for many days afterward.
This atmosphere lasted until the arrival of a seventh-level powerhouse, and after this powerhouse thoroughly inspected the outside of Tassi Town and confirmed that there were no signs of wild undead and spatial cracks, everyone's tense nerves finally relaxed.
It's a pity that the seventh-level powerhouse seems to be in a hurry, coming and going in a hurry, and he hardly stops in Tassi Town, and Mino happens to be lying at home to recuperate, and he can't catch a glimpse of the legendary seventh-level powerhouse, which really makes Mino a little regretful.
But at least the legendary powerhouse relieved everyone's worries and anxieties, Mino's mother became a legendary undead, and she also faintly led the undead to attack Tassie Town, and the matter finally didn't need to be exposed to reassure everyone.
But the matter in Tarsi Town is settled, and those who don't belong here in the first place are leaving.
After the seventh-level powerhouse determined that the crisis in Tassi Town was resolved, the Houston reinforcements, who had suffered heavy losses, immediately withdrew from the border town where more than half of their colleagues were buried, and Carlos and them naturally had to leave.
Due to the salvation of the Holy Spirit used by Orr to burn his life, and Mino hid him in the corner afterwards, Tafa, who was bound to die, woke up in a few days, although he was still very weak, and even the fighting spirit in his body was completely dissipated, and his strength plummeted, but walking was still not a problem.
Before leaving, the six of Carlos' team and Mino and the others held a small funeral for Orr, and the old priest of Tarsie Town, Trek, cast a resting spell on his corpse to ensure that his body would not be awakened as an undead.
Standing in front of Orr's tombstone, Mino was silent for a long time, and then silently took out two lollipops, put one on Orr's tombstone, and put the other in his mouth, and ate it without saying a word.
"I'm sorry Orr, obviously you have shown it so obviously, but I have not been able to perceive the pain in your heart, but you have tried so hard to fight to protect others, you and Xiao Mumu will definitely reunite in the heavenly kingdom of the supreme god, you can go with peace of mind, I will definitely complete the things you explain to me, and I will definitely not let your lava sword skills be ashamed!"
Holding the token that Orr had given him, Mino looked at the tombstone and swore firmly, as if he saw the big paladin who was always smiling brightly.
Orr's funeral is over, the crisis in Tarsi Town is also lifted, Carlos and they are also leaving to go back to their lives, and Tafa's strength also has to find a way to recover, so as soon as the funeral is over, Carlos and they leave.
Before leaving, Mino escorted them all the way out of town, and before the final parting, Carlos patted Mino's shoulder and handed him a letter that had been written long ago.
"What do you mean, Lord Carlos, do you want me to pass it on?" Holding the blank envelope with nothing written on it, Mino looked at Carlos suspiciously.
"This is a letter of recommendation to the Archbishop of the Royal Church, to whom I recommend that Mino, go to the priesthood, and if you show him the letter, he will arrange for you to study at the best clergy school in the country. β
"Priesthood? I remember I didn't say I wanted to be a priesthood, but why did you recommend me to be a priesthood, Lord Carlos?"
Rubbing Mino's little head, which was full of doubts, Carlos laughed loudly.
"Of course, it's because Mino, you're very suitable to be a priesthood, and through getting along these days, we have seen Mino's character, character, and talent, and I'm sure you'll be an excellent priesthood in the future. β
"Not to mention anything else, it's not difficult to understand your personality and behavior, but what is the situation of talent, you haven't tested me specifically, how do you know that I have the talent of a priest, this kind of thing can't be seen with your eyes. β
For Carlos's optimism, Mino said that he couldn't understand it very much, although the requirements for the power of the Holy Light are not high, it depends more on a person's will and belief, at least the most basic light talent is still required, although Mino feels that he must have the ability to practice the Holy Light with outstanding starlight talent, but he has not shown it in front of Carlos at all, if he can see a person's talent with the naked eye alone, then the test circle that the mages painstakingly studied is not in vain.
"You little guy, it's really interesting, is it possible that you think that anyone can use the psionic weapon of the priesthood, not only to be personally granted by the original owner, but also to have a strong light talent to be able to use the psionic weapon freely, before the little guy, you took Orr's oath to defend and fight for so long, if you say that there is no strong light talent, I won't even believe half a word. β
Looking at Mino, who was about to be filled with doubts, Carlos proudly said how he saw through Mino's talent.
"Alright, little one, if you want to become a priest, take this letter to the royal capital, we are leaving, and we look forward to seeing you in the Holy City one day. β
After saying that, Carlos hugged the somewhat sluggish Mino, glanced regretfully at the town of Tassie behind him, and Orr, who was sleeping here, and then strode away with his teammates.
Staring at the letter handed to him by Carlos, Mino's expression was extremely complicated, and after thinking for a long time, Mino still couldn't make up his mind to make a choice, and returned home with confidence.
Although the crisis of the undead has been lifted, the troubles in Tarsie Town are not over, the repair of the badly damaged city walls in this battle, the bereavement of the families of the dead soldiers, and the cleaning of the remains of the undead outside the town are all big problems, and Grandpa Conseil is an old friend of the mayor, so it is not at all easy to refuse the mayor's request for help, and Mino, they can only follow to help, so although Mino, they want to go back to their village immediately, but they still have to help here for several days, until most of the things in the town are resolved, and they finally return to their real homeγ
By the way, there is probably really a big opportunity between life and death, after recovering from the injury, it didn't take long for Mino to break through the second level that had plagued him for a long time, and on the day of the breakthrough, Mino took the sword in front of Orr's grave to show the family heirloom star sword skills completely, which was a common regret for the two.
Probably because of Mino's mother, Mino's small village was miraculously not much damaged, and after a slight makeover, it completely changed back to its former state.
Although he hasn't been away for a long time, he has experienced too much during this time, and even Mino, who has almost died several times, walked into the home where he has lived for more than ten years, looking at the familiar layout of the home, there is a feeling of being in a different world, at this time Mina, who was walking in front, just turned around, and the two sisters and brothers with similar feelings looked at each other, and the two who noticed each other's thoughts couldn't help but laugh at the same time.
"It's really dangerous, I almost can't come back, and now I can come back and I really feel blessed by the supreme god. β
"Of course, if it weren't for the emissaries of the Supreme God protecting you, a hot-blooded fool who knows how to fight, I'm afraid that my sister and I would be back alone now. β
"Sister, you're not the same, you obviously followed Yeren and them together, but you sneaked back, if you didn't happen to meet your mother, neither of us would have been able to come back. β
That day, Mina sneaked back to Tassi Town when they weren't paying attention, and hid in the corner and secretly watched Mino's figure on the city wall, but she didn't see Mino's for a while, and she actually sneaked up on the city wall, if it wasn't for the mother of the two to recover her memory, I'm afraid the two siblings would have to explain there together.
At that time, the situation was urgent, and Mino didn't have time to think about why his sister, who should have run away for a long time, appeared on the battlefield, and when he remembered it afterwards, every time he asked, Mina brought out her mother's words that she wanted her to take good care of her brother, and then listed a series of risky behaviors of Mino with tears in her eyes, so that Mino's words to blame her sister were all held in her stomach.
"Yes, thanks to my mother, it would be nice if my mother was here, this family will be the same as before, but my mother can't come back. Thinking of his mother, Mino's originally bright smile quickly dimmed.
Mina's eyelids lowered in empathy, and the joy of returning home was instantly washed away by the sorrow of her mother's departure, and the silence was as heavy as when her mother died.
"It's okay, Xiao Nuo, my mother must not want to leave us, and anyway, isn't it much better for my mother to be far away in the underworld than if my mother is dead, and when my sister has the ability to inherit the name of the sage of my ancestors, my sister will go to the underworld to bring my mother back, and then our family can be together again as before." β
Mina, who suddenly remembered something, gently took Mino into her arms, stroked his blonde hair, and said softly but firmly.
"Don't touch my head like that, sister, I'm not a child anymore. Straightening his hair, Mino, who was rejuvenated by Mina's comfort, said energetically: "That's right, Mom is just far away from us, as long as I go and get Mom back when the time comes." β
Clutching the letter of recommendation that Carlos handed him in his pocket, Mino looked firmly into the distance, and it seemed that a decision had been made on a choice that had been delayed for a long time.
