Chapter 037: The Source of Fear

The study life of the academy has gradually calmed down, and the layers of turmoil caused by the "Snow Peak Incident" seem to have gradually calmed down.

Needless to say, the result of the "three sessions" was that Cao, who was "appeased", sat on a specially moved chair with a "mourning" face, and told the twists and turns and bizarre "story" that had been made up in advance.

Gus and the others, who had just been blamed, kept a lot of low profile, and although they had a lot of doubts in their hearts, they didn't ask much questions.

Moreover, this time, Cao deliberately told the original "twists and turns" of the "story" "dry", without the "suspense setting", "plot laying", "detail portrayal" and other technical processing, without the "tone", "expression", "action" and other seamless cooperation, how does it sound, it is really boring, which makes the people who "listen to the story" and so on, in addition to being bored, eager to end this "inexplicable" "three-class trial" as soon as possible.

After the "story" is told, there are many "mysteries" left, and some of these mysteries do exist, and some of them are deliberately added by Cao.

"Hmph, let you bother with it, so that you don't have much energy to bother me. Cao thought so. As for the matter of "solving the mystery", Cao is just a "little kid" who is less than two years old, so naturally he has no such obligation.

Gus and the others wanted to summon another party, Monya, to come to "confirm", but they had just been "blamed" by everyone either explicitly or secretly, and their mood was in a state of confusion, and Nalonia herself was only a "little kid" less than two years old, and it was said that she was still a "taciturn" and "one question and three don't answer" temperament, and it was estimated that she couldn't ask why, so she had to dispel this idea.

A few days later, the light mage Pei Di, the mid-level knight Gus, the middle-level knight Edelman, and the other three left the remote and unpleasant Yandi Church and returned to the Cathedral of Rees City to resume their lives.

......

Yandi Church, inside the cathedral.

This was supposed to be the resting place of the High Priest of Darrens, but at this time, there were two people standing in the room, Captain Chris and Priestess Tina, who looked serious.

High Priest Darrens sat aside, his brow slightly furrowed, his expression solemn.

"The situation you are talking about is indeed a bit strange, it seems that I need to find a time to see this child named Monya. High Priest Darrens, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

"High Priestess......" Captain Chris was a little speechless.

"Huh?" Darrens looked at Chris quizzically.

"That...... These days, Monia often ...... Not in the academy, I'm afraid you'll ......"

"Oh......" Darrens was a little surprised, "what did she go to do?"

“...... Subordinate...... I don't know ......," Chris said ashamedly.

Darrens turned his head to look at the priestess Tina on the side, from the moment she entered the door to the present, Tina has never said a word, and the whole process of reporting is what Chris is saying. And every time the word "Monya" is mentioned, there is always a trace of inexplicable fear on her face.

Priestess Tina, apparently feeling Darrens's inquiring gaze, shook her head, nodded again, her mouth opened and opened, but she did not make any sound, and her fair face was oozing dense beads of sweat.

This Tina, it seems, was frightened a lot, how could a small child scare her like this?

"Tina, take it easy, don't be nervous, don't be afraid, the High Priestess is here, nothing can hurt you. Chris comforted, but these few gentle words were like a breeze blowing through the frozen water, unable to bring even a ripple.

Ever since she saw Monia returning from the snowy peaks of "Eboldis", Priestess Tina had often felt inexplicably terrified. The faint coercion emanating from Monia's body, Chris has also felt it, and he can't help but feel fear in his heart, but after staying away, this strange influence basically disappears. But in Tina, it was so intense, that inexplicable fear seemed to go deep into the bone marrow, so that Tina was often shrouded in its shadow.

Chris tried to counsel many times to no avail, and he sought the help of several pastors in the church, but the result was the same. This is one of the reasons why he finally mustered up the courage to bring Tina to the High Priest of Darrens.

Darrens stared at the priestess Tina, and her fierce eyes became brighter and brighter, and Tina, who was suddenly a little glazed-eyed, looked even more wooden.

"High Priestess......" Chris was a little worried.

"She seems to have been caught in a kind of long-lasting magic of the fear type. Darrens mused, "However, no matter how long-lasting this kind of magic is, it is unlikely that it will last that long, unless ......"

"Unless anything...... "The melancholy on Chris's face grew even heavier.

"Hmm...... That is the case...... Unlikely......"

"Then ......" Chris heard in a fog, but he didn't dare to ask more.

"I'll try. Darrens said, a warm smile gradually appeared on his kind face, and then a pair of slender hands slowly raised, slowly swiping in the air, one after another wonderful and elegant gestures came out, and his mouth silently chanted, a soft milky white divine light gradually lit up from his hand, expanded, and then shone on Tina......

"Holy Light ......," Chris whispered as he looked at Darrens gratefully, and the awe in his eyes was even greater. "Holy Light" is a high-level magic spell of the Church Priest's Department, which can effectively dispel fear, weakness, and mania...... and other negative states, only high-level mages who have reached the thirteenth level or above can be used freely, and the cost of mana each time is not low, it is said that the thirteenth-level mage in his heyday can only cast it five or six times. And today, for Tina's sake, the High Priest did not hesitate to spend so much ......

"Chris...... Daitina Xie Xie Xie. Chris whispered.

Darrens waved his hand, his eyes fixed on Tina.

Tina's originally tense face gradually eased, and her beautiful eyes also regained some brilliance.

"Are you alright?" asked Darrens.

"High Priest, I ...... I ......" Tina breathed a sigh of relief before finally speaking.

"It's finally quiet, it's good, don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, don't be confused, this is Yandi Church, a sacred place affiliated with the great Church of Light, a place where the gods are blessed. Darrens's words were flat, but they melted away the darkest hint of melancholy on Tina's face.

"Xie Lu, Lord Xie. Tina said gratefully, and her pale face regained a little redness.

"Alright. Darrens smiled, "Can you tell me now, do you know anything about the Dao?"

"Hmm. ”
