Chapter 20, The Two Faces of Miss Reverend

In the study on the second floor, while there was still some time before the meal began, Eleanor had not yet come, Aaron changed into clean clothes, handed over the dirty clothes to the maid, and came to the study on the second floor.

He had a lot of books in his house, and he wanted to look up something about the "sorcerer Mefham".

Aaron thinks that at present, he is in Susar, and in Cormier's royal capital is in a wealthy area where dignitaries and dignitaries live, and safety should not be a problem, but as long as he still plans to go out on adventures and avenge Hicks, then he is bound to meet that elite-level sorcerer again one day.

He wanted to look up information about the sorcerer.

Warlocks are a relatively new and mysterious profession, Aaron knew very little about the kingdom in his previous life, and he has rarely heard about warlocks in this life.

Soon, Aaron found books in his study about introducing sorcerers.

"Sorcerers are a group that is less visible to mortals, but their power is no less to be reckoned with."

"Since ancient times, mortals have had a thirst for power like breathing, with spellcasters spending their lives exploring the mysteries of magic and non-spellcasters sweating their skills in the realm."

"But people have different talents, and for most people, they can't achieve their goals through their own efforts."

"Some people will try to take shortcuts, they try to summon outer beings, find powerful sources of power, and communicate with certain supreme beings outside the realm through rituals to gain power, and a small number of them have made a pact with outer beings, otherworldly powers, and even some unspeakable beings beyond the stars, and obtained the power given by these beings."

"This is the sorcerer, and the charisma attribute is their most important attribute, which determines whether they can attract a powerful sect master to sign a contract with them."

Aaron thought to himself, isn't this a little similar to my situation? It's just that the power bestowed on me by the four gods is integrated into my body, soul and blood, so I became a warlock, a chaos warlock.

"Warlocks are not uncommon in the world, but they are mostly reluctant to admit and disguise themselves as mages, druids, or warlocks, which makes them not often known."

"Despite the similarities, sorcerers themselves do not possess the ability to cast spells, and their magical powers come entirely from the powerful presence of the Otherworld."

"The supreme being who has signed a contract and provided power is the suzerain, and the sorcerer is without exception a servant of the sustenance, and through the contract, the sorcerer can obtain a powerful and coveted spell-casting ability from the sudden."

"As a price, the sorcerer must obey the orders of the sect master at all times, accept the arrangements of the sect master, and safeguard the interests of the sect master."

"This relationship is a bit like the relationship between gods giving priests divine magic, except that the true gods do not give a mortal a powerful power at will, and rarely personally intervene directly in the mortal world, mortals who want to take shortcuts can only hope for those otherworldly existences that are not gods, bypass the established laws of the world, and embark on this path full of thorns."

Seeing this, Aaron kind of understood.

There is no such thing as a free lunch, there is a price to be paid for taking shortcuts, and most of the time, the relationship between the gods and the believers is similar to that of partners with the protection of the law, and although mortals are somewhat weak, the two sides are generally mutually beneficial, and each is protected by the law.

The relationship between a sorcerer and the suzerainlord is similar to that of a slave sale, to which the sorcerer sells himself for the ability to cast spells.

Most of the magic released by a priest does not have a great impact on his body, but if a sorcerer uses a large amount of the power of the sect master, his body and soul will gradually mutate, and he will gradually become an existence like the sect master.

Aaron continued to look down.

The book emphasizes that sorcerers are not necessarily all evil, and there are also good sorcerers who are chosen by the sorcerer because of chance, so the relationship between some sorcerers and the sorcerer is a strong antagonistic relationship, the sorcerer constantly tries to break away from the control of the sorcerer, and the sorcerer is constantly trying to strengthen the control, and this cat-and-mouse game between the two sides may accompany the sorcerer for the rest of his life.

Very few sorcerers have a relationship with the sect master that is similar to that of master and apprentice, idol fans, and even lovers.

It's just that most sorcerers are slaves who surrender and sign contracts for the sake of power.

The main type of sorcerer's suzerain is the Demon: the Devil of Hell or the Demon of the Abyss, which make up the largest proportion, more than all the other types combined.

Then there are the Old Dominators, the High Elves, the Celestial Creatures, the Immortal Gods, the Shadow Fallen Spirits, the Deep Sea Trolls, the Elemental Djinns, the Necromantic Monarchs, and so on.

Aaron thought to himself as if except for the Supreme Goblin Elemental Djinn who is neutral and the celestial creatures who are kind, the others can roughly know that they are evil at first glance at the name, so it is no wonder that it is translated as a sorcerer instead of a sorcerer.

He didn't look at anything else, just focused on the Old Dominators.

The suzerains of the Old Dominators include Guannard the Lurker, Sariddon the Bound God, Zagon the Returnee, Cthulhu the Great Dominator, Azathoth, the God of Blind Foolishness, and many more......

How the hell is this here???

Aaron couldn't help but complain.

Forget it, you can cross it yourself, and it doesn't seem strange that the gram system appears.

The biggest difference between the Sect Masters of the Old Dominators and other Sect Masters is that these indescribable supreme beings outside the stars basically do not give guidance or orders to the sorcerers, and the sorcerers are relatively much freer, but due to the incomprehensible extradimensional knowledge and unspeakable thoughts that these beings continue to transmit, it is only a matter of time before the sorcerers are driven crazy, and they basically do not live half of their normal lifespan.

The sorcerers who can make contracts with the Old Rulers are all occult masters.

Almost, Aaron closed the book, and he began to think, and a strange thought gradually popped up in his mind:

Look at my face, can I be the suzerain of the sorcerer?

I am the Son of Chaos, the owner of the four powers of the Four Gods of Chaos, can I also sign a contract with mortals like other suzerains and share the power among them, so as to cultivate a team loyal to me?

How? Demons do it, celestial creatures do it, elemental djinns do it, and I, a child of chaos, can't do it?

Although I am not a genetic prototype and can't create my own Star Marine legion, it should be no problem for me to continue to unlock the power of the four gods and upgrade to a few demon princes, right?

This is still a long-term plan for Aaron, who is currently weak, but Aaron feels that he can write it down now.

The future can be expected, the future can be expected.

Aaron closed the book, he still wanted to find a book about magic, but after a long time, he didn't find it.

The Sallian family had few books on magic, and the family had never been known for spellcasters.

It seems that I need to find some time to look in the royal library, there should be books explaining the divine powers and magic of the gods, but the question is where to find a warlock mentor?

If you ask the royal family or the big nobles to help you find a mentor, it is a great favor, and Aaron does not want to owe such a big favor.

As the Viscount paced in his study, pondering what to do next, he overwhelmed the view of his garden under the window.

He was stunned.

The priest of the Silver Virgin Suren, Eleanor Dinevor of the Flower of the Sunken Sea, is standing in the garden downstairs!

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the crimson glow of the sunset shone down the small garden in front of the door, and in the short cobblestone path, Eleanor stood under the grapevines of the Salian House, quietly looking at the mansion near the palace.

Her delicate, holy and pure delicate face did not wear a mask, her face was like a bright moon, her face was like a silver star, her royal blue eyes were slightly hesitant, a pair of golden eyebrows were not as sharp as before, her ruddy cherry lips were slightly pursed together, and her hair like a golden waterfall was soft and neat from the back of her head.

Miss Priest wears a knee-length dress with silver moon silk inlaid with gold embroidered stamens, her fingers are slender, a pair of bright wrists as pure as jade are exposed from the long silk sleeves of the dress, two slender arms are soft and not explicit, through the white gauze gold silk trimmed sleeves add a lot of holiness to this flawless lotus arm, the jade neck wears the vial pendant containing turquoise hair, set off the delicate and sexy collarbone in it, the silver moon embroidered knee-length skirt is the pattern of bellflower stamens, although the neckline looks looser, But the pride still lifted it up a lot, and revealed a little ravines between the canyons.

I didn't expect Eleanor to hide it deeply! Aaron thought to himself, he usually wears armor and doesn't think that Miss Pastor is also expected!

Why didn't she knock on the door?

Aaron didn't think much about it, he immediately went downstairs and opened the door: "Miss Eleanor? Welcome! Welcome to Sallian House, my home. ”

"Ahh Why are you here?! The pastor, who was struggling, was startled when she saw the door suddenly open, and she couldn't help but lose her voice.

"............" Aaron squinted at Miss Reverend and pointed to the house number.

"Hmm...... Sorry, but it's mostly me too...... I don't want to do that, they want me to wear it like this! Eleanor also realized what a shameful mistake she had made, and a red sunset suddenly appeared on her moon-white face, which reflected the setting sun in the distance.

The more she spoke, the quieter she became, and finally she couldn't go on.

She didn't want to dress like that, either! But when she went to the church of Our Lady of Silver in Susal and handed over the letter to Lady Silverstar, the priestess of the church branch took out the dress and asked her to put it on, and when she learned that she was going to Aaron's house for dinner, she took all the clothes she had changed into and washed them without saying a word!

The clothes have been washed, so you can wear this suit, this is given to you by the silver star lady.

Eleanor could not argue, seeing that the time was coming, and she had always had the virtue of punctuality, so she could only wear this suit to the banquet.

Miss Pastor was about to cry aggrievedly.

Are you people who are believers in the Silver Lady? How can you fool me like this!

Doesn't that seem ...... Doesn't it look like I'm trying to please him?

In fact, if Aaron hadn't seen it, Miss Pastor would probably have continued to struggle until someone found her.

"No, don't watch it all the time!" Seeing that Aaron was still looking at her unscrupulously, Eleanor finally became a little annoyed, and she subconsciously reached out and touched her waist.

This man, if you don't knock, you can't do it!

Hey, where's my Warhammer?

Miss Pastor then remembered that her Warhammer Moon Hand had been placed in the church.

Not! What to do, what to do, what to do?

Eleanor, who didn't have a hammer in her hand, was completely panicked.

Aaron's big hand was stretched out in front of her just right, and the handsome and charming man's face was full of seriousness: "Very, very, very welcome, Miss Eleanor, you are so beautiful tonight!" ”

"............" Miss Reverend's face turned red, and she carefully confirmed that Aaron's expression was serious and not hypocritical, and finally dispelled the idea of running away.

"Hit, excuse me." Under Aaron's guidance, Eleanor, who wore a pair of white shallow lace-up heels and walked a little staggeringly, stepped into the door of Sallian's house.

"Welcome, very welcome!" The first to come out was indeed Aunt Melly, the middle-aged woman was very familiar, and she directly held Eleanor's shoulders with both hands: "Oh, the Lady of Silver is above, Eleanor, my little angel, you are really getting more and more beautiful!" ”

"Hello, Lady Melly, Hello, Mr. Lothair." Miss Pastor greeted her warmly, and she forced herself to hold back her shame, feeling her face burn.

It's weird and shameful to look like you don't wear a mask......

It's obvious that they're all acquaintances, but ...... There's always a feeling of indescribability, and it's in front of this guy and this guy's family...... But their family has worshipped the Virgin of Silver for generations, and I can't ......

Feeling that Ms. Melly was holding her shoulders and not letting go, and habitually began to ask the parents if they had a boyfriend, the helpless Eleanor hurriedly showed Aaron a look of help.

"Well, aunt, Eleanor is a first-time guest at Sallian's house, and she won't get used to your hospitality." Aaron immediately came out to relieve Miss Pastor, and Aunt Melly let go of her hands when she saw this.

Eleanor, who was not touched, immediately became much more natural, and unlike with Aaron, Eleanor put on a bright smile, and enthusiastically asked her aunt and uncle how her husband was doing, and asked how Cousin Robert and Cousin Juta were doing, and put on a little trick, conjuring a bright bellflower from her hand and inserting it on the little girl's head, making her giggle and correct her prayer gesture.

The scene quickly came into her hands.

Damn, is this my house or your house?

Aaron couldn't be calm now.

Miss Pastor also gave him a provocative look just right.

Now the rhythm is in my hands!

"Miss Eleanor, this is your first time at my house, and there is still some time before dinner, so I will show you around?" Aaron decided to take the initiative.

"Yes, we are all old people, don't disturb the interaction of young people." Aunt Melly was shrewd, she immediately followed, and struck Lothair on the waist with great precision.

"yes, dinner is still a little while, Eleanor, you can follow Aaron to see here." Aunt-in-law Lothair endured the pain and said, while holding his daughter.

Aaron gave Eleanor the same arrogant look.

This is my home!

Tsk, Miss Pastor saw that the tide was gone, and she had to give her fierce gaze back.

Best of 3 games!

β€”β€”β€”β€”I'm the dividing line for two out of three gamesβ€”β€”β€”β€”

Paying their respects with Eleanor in front of the small Suren shrine on the first floor, Miss Priest followed Aaron to the study.

She really rarely came to the homes of nobles, and she couldn't help but feel the novelty, and followed Aaron to look around, only to feel that although the Salian family had declined, it was still very rich!

It's no wonder that the priests and paladins who occasionally come into contact with the Church of the Triotheistic Righteousness often hate these nobles!

Hum! If it weren't for the Salian family's recognition of the right gods, they wouldn't have given him a good look!

Miss Reverend thought so, but Aaron actually had a great time showing her around.

The viscount was a man of speech and charismatic possession, and Eleanor found it a pleasure to listen to him.

Of course, Aaron also took this opportunity to secretly look at Miss Pastor.

Under the embroidered stamens knee-length skirt, the two slender and delicate jade legs are straight together, the thin skirt slightly presses the knees, the white and tender leg lines are smooth and symmetrical like silk satin and extend to the ankles, the thin ankles are crystal clear, the two jade feet are worn in a pair of white fish mouth ties, a few toes poke out slightly, full of pink and delicate and well-proportioned, people can't help but want to find out, there are silver star patterns on both sides of the upper, wrapping Eleanor's pair of jade feet.

Miss Reverend's graceful figure shook slightly in front of Aaron's eyes, and she was obviously a little unaccustomed to walking in high heels, and her delicate and small ankles swayed as if they were about to break at any moment.

It's just that something is missing, Aaron, who secretly admired it in his heart, thought regretfully.

Eleanor naturally felt Aaron's gaze, and the priest was secretly annoyed but could not find a reason to criticize him, so she pointed to a huge tapestry in front of her and asked, "This is your family tree, right?" ”

"Yes." Aaron then raised his head,

In front of them hung an oversized tapestry eight meters long and about four meters high, on which the long heritage of the Salian family was depicted, and each name represented a piece of past history.

The ancestors of the Salian family can be traced back to the marriage of Countess Ostrasi, the daughter of the third generation of the Hondas-Oberszir family, the first king of Cormier, to the local nobles to obtain the title of earl, but the most famous of the ancestors was Lyudorf, who obtained a fief by virtue of his military exploits and pioneering achievements, and the concept of the Salian family was truly formed.

"I can't find your name." Eleanor came up and looked for it directly at the end of the tapestry, but could not find Aaron's name: "I can't find your father's either." ”

"Mine? My name is here. Aaron couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, and he pointed to the last part of the tapestry, which was obviously forcibly burned by fire: "Here, his name and my father's name were burned by him. ”

"Why?" Eleanor clearly didn't understand.

"Because we're all shit, unworthy of the Salian surname, he thinks that my presence with him is an insult to our family name." Aaron snorted.

"I always felt like he wasn't that kind of person." Eleanor recalls Aaron's parents: "He was always so upright, so polite, so humble, so full of compassion before men. ”

"People often have two faces, just like you, Miss Eleanor." Aaron approached from behind and whispered in Eleanor's ear, "It's like when you face my family, it's completely different from when you face me!" ”

"That's just because they're ............" Eleanor felt the smell blow in her ears, and Miss Reverend tried to defend herself as she blushed from Aaron's intimate movements.

"You don't have to say it, I understand." Aaron's azure eyes as far-reaching as the sky stared deeply at Eleanor, and said softly, "I'm glad you did this to me, really." ”

"If you treat me like you do to your aunt and husband, then I will be sad, which shows that you don't really treat me as your own person, as a like-minded partner, as a touched person of the Silver Lady, and as a true friend."

"I'm glad you allowed yourself to show your true self in front of me, dear Eleanor, and in the years to come, I still want us to be like this, easily, and show our true selves, okay?"

Rumble!

Aaron's words were like a great ram that struck Miss Reverend's heart.

He understands me!
