Chapter 50: The Seed of Shakenness
Chapter 50: The Seed of Shake
Without revealing his whereabouts, Mino pulled Phil out of the distance as quickly as possible, as if he was hiding from some flood beast.
Phil was a little incomprehensible about Mino's performance, but looking at Mino's uncertain face, Phil wisely did not ask any questions about it.
But something has to be solved after all.
"Hey, Mino, what are we going to tell Clarel about that murderer when we go back, do we tell the truth, or pretend we didn't see that guy's business?"
Holding the little Steadic in his arms and stroking the two gold rings on its ears, Phil asked Minoan with interest.
"Don't touch my little Stabee, it's all dirty with your dirty hands, the storage ring is bound by me with mental power, and a roast duck can't fill your stomach? ”
Avoiding Phil's question, Mino snatched the little Steyrian beast from Phil's arms, threw the last bundle of dead vines he had collected into the storage ring, and squinted at Phil angrily.
In this regard, Phil snorted, pretending not to hear Mino's words, stroking the long ears of the little Steyr Beast, and asked Mino suspiciously: "I have been listening to your little Steinus little Steines, is this the name you gave him?
"No, the little Staimon is the meaning of the young Staylmon, and I haven't decided what to name it yet. ”
"How about a cuppy?" Phil's eyes lit up as he touched the two gold rings on the little Stead's ears, and excitedly suggested to Mino.
"Kewpie, that sounds good, but why do you have such a name? ”
After thinking about Mino's doubts, Phil scratched his head in embarrassment and patted Mino's shoulder with laughter and said, "Because in my hometown, the name Cuppy represents immortality, cuteness, mystery and wisdom, and I feel that this little guy fits these words perfectly." ”
"Really? These words don't connect at all, well, I don't know how Phil, your hometown is going to put them together. Stroking the soft ears of the little Steyrmon, Mino thought about it for a while, and happily agreed: "But this name is really good, then it is decided, little one, you will be called Cuppy in the future." ”
Lift up the little Stacy, no, it's Cuppy, Mino said happily to it.
Looking at Kewpie, who had been cultivated by Mino, Phil smiled, as if he had seen a small white beast that looked like both a rabbit and a fox.
After playing around for a while, Mino, they began to return the same way, because the magic vines along the way had been almost killed by Mino, so it was easy, and they walked out of the vine area after a while.
On the way back, he was lucky not to encounter any demons, so much so that Phil complained a little about why there were no demons to open his scythe.
After completing the task of collecting food and fuel, the next day Mino said that he would not go again, insisting on staying in the temple to recuperate.
Phil was unwilling to be lonely and persuaded several times, but after being rejected by Mino, although he was unwilling, he had no choice but to accompany Mino to stay in the temple until the next day.
After a day's consumption, the vines Mino's and the others had brought back were consumed, and another group of people received the task again, and in a short time, they brought back a man, the man who had killed his companion for food.
After the man named Kurlot was brought back, Mino reversed his previous insistence on staying in the temple and dragged Phil straight to hunt the demon.
Phil was full of questions about this, but looking at Mino's gloomy face, he still didn't ask anything.
Mino's anemia and Phil's muscle strain, although they are not the kind of injuries that can be healed immediately by taking medicine, they are not serious injuries, especially after recuperating for several days, both of them have basically recovered, and the little thing under them is no longer a big problem.
Therefore, the combat power of both of them has returned to the old view, and this is the reason why Phil only has doubts about Mino's decision and has no objections.
I don't know if it's because of the change of weapons, or because of a bad mood, today's Mino, who is holding the meteorite, is quite wild, and he doesn't perform any subtle sword moves, but relies on his own strength and the quality of the meteorite to crush the demon head-on.
This method of fighting is quite efficient, so much so that Mino's number of demons killed is more than that of Phil, who frequently uses Douqi martial arts, but at the cost of Mino's injuries.
It is not easy for the wide sword body of the falling star to change moves, and there is no dexterity of the blue moon at all, and the decisive blow of the demons can often hit Mino's body before Mino's defense, but Mino's pursuit of results today and neglect the defense, and without the previous steady and steady combat methods, injury has become inevitable.
Another demon slashed Mino's head at the same time, leaving a shallow scar on Mino with his claws, looking at Mino who was silently applying ointment to the wound, Phil finally couldn't help it.
"Sword wielder, what happened to you today, when did your swordsmanship get so bad that you can even kill a bad demon and get injured?" Throwing off the demon blood on his scythe, Phil raised his eyebrows at Mino, half mocking and half puzzled, and asked, "It seems that it is because of that Kulot, he is your acquaintance?"
"It's nothing, Phil, you think too much, I've just been in this underground labyrinth for a long time, I'm in a bad mood, I just want to vent, I've never heard the name Kulot before. Smiling reluctantly, Mino defended Phil with some weakness.
"So you know the victim named Jack, if that were the case, we would just go and report that guy." ”
"It's said that Phil thinks too much, whether it's Kurlot or Jack, I don't know, if I want to avenge Jack, I'll tell everyone about it when I come back that day, and I need you to teach me. ”
Rolling his eyes helplessly, Mino said weakly.
"Then what's going on with your abnormality in the past two days, don't tell me what kind of bad mood you have, we were hunted down like that day, your weapons were destroyed, and I didn't see you like this, but you just went to pick up some vines, and you became like that, if you want to say that it has nothing to do with the Kulot incident, I won't believe a word!"
In the face of Phil's questioning, Mino moved his mouth, and was about to say something to justify, but seeing the slow stubbornness and concern in Phil's eyes staring at him, he couldn't say anything, so he could only turn his head away and respond in silence.
But Phil endured it for so long, and finally had a showdown with Mino, but he was not willing to let Mino fool him with silence, he didn't do anything else, just kept staring into Mino's eyes.
Under Phil's gaze, Mino was silent for a long time, but in the end, he was still unable to resist Phil's eye offensive, and said in a dry voice:
"Phil, why did you choose to join the Cult of the Supreme God and become a priest? If you are just looking for power, your talent and the martial arts you have inherited are enough for you to grow into a strong man. ”
Faced with Mino's question, Phil was stunned, and after a long moment, he scratched his head and replied, his tone full of hesitation.
"Probably for the unique strength of the clergy, the strength of my major is biased towards death, and the lethality and explosiveness are very strong, but the ability to continue fighting and defense are much worse, the power of the clergy can make up for my shortcomings very well, and I also happen to have a talent in this area, so here it is, well, it should be like this." ”
Listening to Phil's analysis of himself, Mino pursed his lips and chuckled, and then continued to ask, "Then what do you think of the doctrine of the Supreme God Cult and the path of the Holy Light?"
"This, it's very good, it's much better than I imagined, I originally thought it was an evil force in a bright shell, the ultimate villain of this world, ready to lurk in it, and then it will be strong and disintegrate the Supreme God Cult, but after joining, I found that this church is really a great light to a certain level, and the final villain must be another force. ”
Phil's words made Mino couldn't help but laugh out loud, laughing so much that his body spasmed, and it took a long time to recover, shaking his body and pointing at Phil: "What the hell do you guys think, you actually think that the Supreme God Cult is an evil force, are you really a person from this world? I haven't read any history." ”
"Phil, do you know, I already had my own complete path from the beginning, and the power of the priesthood is actually just a burden to me that slows down my leveling speed. After laughing, fiddling with the bottle of ointment in his hand, Mino said to Phil in a gloomy voice: "The reason why I chose to come to become a priesthood is because of the inspiration of a priest who saved my life, and I want to be like him, to be a person who can selflessly help others." ”
"Because of the performance of the priest and his companions, I thought that the path of light was the collection of all the positive spirits in this world, the greatest path of goodness, so I pursued it. ”
"So that's the case, although it's a bit exaggerated to say this, but from a doctrinal point of view alone, Mino's words are indeed quite reasonable, how did you think of saying this. ”
Listening to Mino's analysis of the reason for his pursuit of the Holy Light, Phil nodded knowingly, and then voiced his doubts.
In the face of Phil's doubts, Mino's hand fiddling with the medicine bottle froze, and explained with a wry smile:
"If the path of the Holy Light is the way of supreme goodness, then the priesthood who has been recognized by the Holy Light should also be benevolent beings, but Kulot's behavior has confused me, such a guy who can kill his companions in order to survive before the last moment of death can be recognized by the Holy Light, so is the Way of the Holy Light really as beautiful as I imagined?"
"Isn't it really a wrong choice for me to abandon the path I planned to become a priest?"
In the end, Mino accidentally smashed the medicine bottle in his hand, and looking at the fragments of the porcelain bottle falling from his hand, Phil could feel the huge tangle in his heart.
It's a pity that he has no research on these ideal human nature or anything, and he has never thought about this aspect, and he can't do anything about Mino's entanglement, so he can only pat Mino on the shoulder and chat for comfort.
