Chapter Seventy-Seven: Is Ivus Delicious?

With the Sun Scepter in hand, Eivus followed Matilda to the depths of the Holy Order.

He walked down the crimson carpet and for a moment felt like a star on the red carpet.

On the left and right sides of the red carpet, there are slowly spectators entering. Most of them are elves, and although there are many of them, they are very polite and quiet, so they don't make noise at all. It took a while for Ivus to see Sherlock, Lily, and Pure White at the forefront.

When the crowd stopped entering, Matilda took Ivus to the end.

There was a mural of uneven, dark gold metal, reflecting the light in the flames. It appears to be copper, possibly gold. The lines inside are all protruding, and they look very three-dimensional.

The picture is simple and easy to understand.

Two women and one man, three obviously elves, knelt down in front of the candle. The scarlet stag covered in thorns was too easy to distinguish—its enormous antlers all pointed to the sky, and each branch of the antlers was like a candle flame illuminating the darkness.

And the whole picture is irregular...... In other words, the mural reflects a small area illuminated by the light of the stag.

Evas's eyes inevitably fell on the mural.

Matilda raised her hands as if in praise of the sun.

She solemnly praised the mural: "We ask for the candle!" ”

The next moment, all the candles in the room were extinguished and then lit at the same time.

It was no longer the unwavering, texture-like red candle flame it had just been.

It's an incomparably delicate, pure white pure brilliance—

These candles are unusually slender, like vertical pupils.

The room, which was still a little dark, was like daylight in an instant.

"I solemnly call to you, noble fire-stealer!

"The god of the holy number is three, the god of sin thorns, and the god of burning and chasing darkness - the stag of the candle!"

The next moment, the candle flame that Ivus was staring at, and the whole world in front of him, were like a speeding mud truck, and it crashed into the distance with a whirl!

In an instant, Eivus's vision was engulfed in a rapidly enlarged pure white flame.

The surroundings became extremely quiet for a moment, and Ivas suddenly appeared in a pure white space.

It was only a brief hesitation before Ivus suddenly reacted.

Yes, he's been here.

From the Chapel of St. Genevele, when he first learned the art of fire worship, he saw the candle in the fire by visualizing the flames.

So, if nothing else......

In that pure white and bright world, a majestic and beautiful stag came slowly.

He was pure red throughout, and his antlers were a darker red. At the tip of each antler, a white flame burns. Even if the space around you is white, you can still see the color and shape of those flames—it is the light of the light, the white of the white.

And He was wrapped in black thorns of sin. The thorns pierced His skin and caused Him to shed red blood like fire. As He walked, blood dripped down his hooves and fell to the ground, causing the pure white space to rise in immeasurable red flame footprints.

When he was promoted for the first time, Ivus couldn't see Si Candle clearly.

Now, in an instant, Ivas was struck by the beauty and sacredness that struck his mind.

He was robbed of his ability to speak and act, and his whole body froze in place.

And Si Candle walked over slowly, bowing his head and licking Ivus's arm.

Ivus looked down, only to find that the crystal snake scales on his forearm were slowly dissipating.

It was the uncomfortable reaction that occurred in Aihuas's body when he was impregnated by the power of the Celestial Ring. Even after Eivus completed his promotion, it didn't dissipate...... Because it was an aberration of Ivus's soul itself. It's like a cancerous body.

Now, under the licking of the candle, the influence from the Celestial Division has completely subsided.

When it disappeared completely, Ivas suddenly had an inexplicable feeling - that feeling, as if he had just finished the college entrance examination, as if something that had accumulated in his heart had disappeared. The whole person became relaxed, and even the heavy schoolbag behind him didn't seem to be so heavy.

[You will burn it all and turn it to ashes]

A soft, deep voice rang in Ivas's ears.

[Or fly high and light up the heavens and the earth]

Si Candle's voice was warm and bright, sounding inexplicably touching and reassuring.

It feels like a gentle father, a reliable brother, or a majestic and amiable teacher. Although Ivus couldn't technically remember what his father's voice was like, he did.

"I'm going to ...... Burn? ”

Ivus muttered.

[This is the paradox of light: although the light is revealed, the light is also dazzling.] No one whose eyes are complete shall see the light, except for the light itself. Will you burn? 】

Si Candle replied.

- I didn't understand.

Ivas thought to himself.

What these riddlers were trying to say, Ivas didn't dare to interpret at will. If you misunderstand, it's better not to understand.

However, it seems that he knows that Ivas did not understand. So Si Zhu further explained:

[There are only two ways to follow the light - your own body is fire, and you can't see the light]

[You have chosen the latter, now is the time to close the window]

Ivus understood.

Because of the two advanced professions of Torchlighter or Enlightener, Ivus chose the latter. Now it's time for the body to make.

The enlightener does not have to burn his life and turn it into a torch. As a person of enlightenment, he can't look at the light for too long.

If Ivus understood correctly, he would need to sacrifice at least one eye. Otherwise, you will not be able to continue to advance.

"I choose...... Right eye. ”

Eivus replied.

- If you don't care about the convenience of daily life, you will definitely get a super buff by sacrificing two eyes. This is the way of giving, the more you give, the more you get.

Candle licked Ivus's right eye gently.

There was no pain—just a burst of warmth, and Ivas felt the vision of his right eye disappear.

The next moment, Ivas felt a damp touch.

He reached out to touch it, but suddenly he was stabbed.

Ivus hissed softly, feeling his right eye bleed. He reached out and pulled it out, and saw that it was a black sin thorn.

- The beans he ate before have really turned into sin thorns.

After being ripped off by Ivus, the black thorn of sin quickly withered. As it withered, it condensed small red fruits. Eventually, the black spine turned to ashes, leaving only a small handful of small red fruits about the size of a pomegranate seed in the palm of Ivus's hand.

"It's ...... Sour dates? ”

Ivas was stunned.

Thorns will produce dates, and this Ivas knows it.

…… But he'll grow dates now, too?

He instinctively felt that when he was in a dream, he had thorns in his eyes, which he might not be able to get rid of in a short time. In other words, he will be able to grow a small handful of such small sour dates after a while.

- So can you eat this? Is it tasty? How to eat?

Ivas clutched the sour dates, and such a thought popped into his head.

He subconsciously opened his eyes, only to find that his right eye was not completely blind - his right eye clearly saw the jujubes shining with red devotion, and a faint black aura.

Seems to be a real sight.

As he thought so, the white space around him quickly retreated.

In a trance, he reappeared at the coronation ceremony.

At this point, the ceremony has come to an end. The Sun Scepter in his hand was already in Cardinal Matilda's hand, and now he was holding a handful of red fruits with his hands folded.

A streak of blood slowly flowed from his right eye, and his blue pupils turned amber-like yellow.

Cardinal Matilda solemnly set up the candle and lit it.

One large candle, two small candles. On the same scale as Bishop Mathers. These candles are made of giant trees that burn for a long time and emit a steady glow.

Immediately afterwards, Cardinal Matilda placed the crown on Eivas's head. And touch it lightly with the scepter of the sun in his hand.

The golden light rippled through the space like ripples.

Ivus's two heterochromatic pupils lit up a bright vermilion glow at the same time.

The golden sacrificial cloak on his body was windless, and the inscriptions on the golden shoulder strap like a scarf lit up one after another, shining brightly. Even the "Wings of Freedom" on Ivus's back was activated and ignited.

As the flame of the crown above Ivus's head ignited and extinguished, the light on Ivus's body gradually dissipated.

Certification completed.

All the surrounding spectators saluted Ivas respectfully, and then dispersed in twos and threes.

They witnessed the promotion of the new archbishop and were clearly very pleased with it. Pure White nodded to Evas, and both Sherlock and Lily applauded happily.

"Archbishop Moriarty, congratulations."

Cardinal Matilda smiled and nodded at Ivus, "The ceremony is all over. I'll take you to your room in a moment. After a while, the study of advanced divine arts will officially begin, and we will meet again. ”

She looked at the fruit that suddenly appeared in Ivus's hand with some curiosity, and asked politely with some curiosity, "By the way...... What is it? ”

"This should be a date." Ivas replied.

I have dates on my body - it looks like you probably don't grow this.

It's unusual.

Ivas said in his heart.

"It's a bit presumptuous...... Can I taste it? ”

Cardinal Matilda was a little curious: "Of course, it doesn't matter if it doesn't work. I can help you find some containers to store. ”

It was the first time she had seen a bishop with an extra handful of dates in his hand after he was promoted.

Generally speaking, it is burned directly on the body and then left a few scars. The holy oil that had been applied before was to prevent the flames from causing too much damage to the body, and it was also to protect the clothes from burning in public.

As a result, Ivas did not burn at all, but was blind in one eye and had an extra handful of dates in his hand.

…… Is this a gift or a recompense from the candle?

"—please."

Without hesitation, Aihuas handed over the dates he was holding in both hands.

It just so happens that he wants to find someone to try the effect.

Matilda is a cardinal of the fifth level. In case this can't be eaten...... The transcendents who dedicate themselves to the path have rough skin and thick flesh, high resistance, and are probably not poisonous.

"You can taste it, please don't be polite."

Ivus said enthusiastically.

Update complete!

It's not 12 o'clock at noon, so don't wait in advance...... However, the cat should still finish writing before 6 p.m., and you can wait for the meow at night.

Get ready to play the Last Era, it's been a long time coming! (Rub the claw)
