Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 949: The New Occupation of the Moon Child

According to the Lord of Scales and Feathers... the new Mist Sky Commander has one biggest advantage, which is that Ah Huan is unlikely to dare to attack her.

Because the Wu Tiansi and Yan Tiansi, who were on the same path, formed a subtle trend of mutual protection.

The ritual of the Ring of Tail requires a "cycle". That is to say, when a celestial being of the Path of Love is pulled down, the other celestial beings of the Path of Love are safe until the end of this cycle.

So if one of them is pulled down, the other Tiansi can target Huan Tiansi freely until the end of this cycle... and Huan Tiansi will not be able to pull him directly into the material world through the Tail Ring Ritual.

Although Huan Tiansi may not be afraid that they will target him...but the less trouble the better.

Ah Huan had lost his edge, and the strategies he chose were all the "safest" and "most conservative" ideas. Therefore, when this matter was obviously troublesome, he would choose to bypass it - and then choose his target from the Shadow Sky Division or the Blood Sky Division.

Unlike the birth of Yan Tiansi... the birth of Yan Tiansi has little impact on humans, but has a greater impact on dragons; however, the birth of Wu Tiansi will completely change the situation of the entire human society.

Because of the birth of Wu Tiansi, the Son of the Moon now has a "legitimate profession on the side of kindness".

The Moon Children originally had very few professions that they could normally hold. After they became Moon Children, their desires for other paths would decline, which would lead to the decline of their extraordinary powers in other paths and a drop in their professional level.

Although they can still possess the corresponding skills, their extraordinary power will decrease - that is, they only have skills but lose their foundation. For example, the Moon Sons of the Black Eagle Principality who were born as hunters or assassins. But the Moon Sons race itself has power, just like griffins, sea monsters, and dragons... When their race level rises, they can also use the skills of former hunters, assassins, and even warriors.

This is probably the reason why there are so many high-level Moon Sons who can fight in the Black Hawk Principality.

"Adapting to your new body" is also a test of "adaptation".

By the time they were able to use the Moon Child's body to perform the Art of Adaptation, their own adaptive powers would have been almost restored.

After all, it is the path of "stealing scales and feathers", and replacing a body is not considered rebellion for the adapter - not to mention that the core purpose of changing the body is to prolong life and for "survival".

Even within the Path of Love, there are not many professions that the Moon Child can inherit. That is, they must follow the inheritance of the Blood Sky Master and advance from a Blood Mage to a Blood Lord.

If you have the level of dedication and worship Hengwo, you can also change your job to become a Moonlight Scholar with healing abilities.

But the Moon Children had no choice at all - their faith was either the Blood Lord or the Feast Master. Sister Sasha had no power, and Heng I ignored them. So the path of Moonlight Scholars was basically impossible to follow, and the "most correct path" could only be the Blood Lord, there was no other choice.

The two paths that can be taken are either selfish enjoyment or violence and bloodthirstiness. In this case, how can the Moon Children be good? If they are good, it is equivalent to voluntarily giving up the blessing of God, unable to obtain the most suitable power for themselves, and unable to integrate into any combat-capable Moon Children group. They will also be excluded and persecuted by other Moon Children and vampire hunters.

This is like asking poor people who have a hard time surviving to obey the law completely. It is obviously unreasonable to force others to have morals that are inconsistent with their living environment when there are no conditions.

——But from now on, things are different!

Sister Sasha was originally the orthodox belief of the Moon Child during the Herasil Empire. It is normal to revive the belief in Sasha along with the revival of Herasil.

Because at that time, the Moon Children had not encountered such great external pressure, nor had they dispersed to various places, and their core demand was not to gain stronger power. At that time, the Moon Children's secret belief was Sister Sasha... Because they were "not favored by the gods" - because they could not ascend to the kingdom of the gods after death - so they would rebel and choose to worship "goals other than gods".

At that time, the Moon Child still had his own pride. But after experiencing a life-and-death crisis during the Rift War, that kind of thing disappeared - strength was the most important thing.

And now with the Mist God, the Son of the Moon has the possibility of "becoming good"!
It is no longer a blood-sucking monster, but a misty shadow under the moon...

Aiwass made up his mind, dug out a bottle of red wine, poured it into a transparent crystal bowl, and set up a simple altar.

"I respectfully invite the Heavenly Feast Master," he murmured in a low voice, "the Heavenly Feast Master of Eternal Feast, the Heavenly Feast Master of Gluttony..."

The first half of Yan Tiansi's prayer is the same as Xue Tiansi's, but the second half is different.

As ripples appeared in the wine bowl in front of Aiwas, he quickly established a connection with Yan Tiansi.

The whole process doesn't even take half a minute.

【Oh, I remember you! 】

It was a bold and curious voice.

Yan Tiansi laughed loudly, and in the background there was the sound of clinking of glasses and people's laughter:
[I have to thank you very much, Aiwass! Come and have a drink with me sometime! It doesn't matter if you are not dead, or you can come up in a dream sometime, we will send a dragon car to pick you up! ]

"I'll go if I have time."

Aiwass declined politely and asked, "I want to know the name of the new Mist Master..."

[You're looking for her? She's here too! Why don't you come over and talk to her directly? Come and talk! ]

Yan Tiansi tried his best to invite Aiwas to be his guest.

But Aiwas knew that when Yan Tiansi was still the host, his eternal banquets were famous for their grand scale. It was unknown how long it would take to attend one... Maybe he went there just to have a meal, but by the time he returned to the human world, several years had passed.

So Aiwas declined again, and after a long struggle he finally got Wu Tiansi's contact information.

Aiwass lifted the prayer. He drank the wine in the bowl and then poured new wine.

"I respectfully invite the Heavenly Master of Mist, the Heavenly Master without eyes and words, the Heavenly Master without sun and moon..."

As Aiwass's prayer fell, his connection with Wu Tiansi was instantly established.

Perhaps it was because Wu Tiansi already knew that Aiwass was looking for her, or perhaps it was because she had not yet announced her prayer.

The bowl of wine in front of Aiwas evaporated instantly, entwined with the surrounding white mist, and formed a vague outline.

At that moment, Aiwass felt a warm feeling coming from his waist.

That's the heat radiating from Sister Sasha's skin!
The mist condensed into a vague human figure in front of him.

This was different from the appearance of Sister Sasha that Aiwas had seen before.

The Sister Sasha that Aiwas had seen before was wearing a black silk eye mask, black silk gloves, and a heavy nun's uniform.

But now, the "Mist Master" is wearing a white silk robe that reminds people of the pure white saint - but according to Aiwass's theological knowledge, this robe should represent the "moon".

It was a long robe like a nightgown. There was no decoration on the robe, just like a thin piece of cloth. The lost feet and arms had returned.

Her long hair also changed color completely... becoming a gradient of grayish white and dark blue, like the junction of the night fog and the night sky.

But her face was hidden in the mist, and only her lips and high nose bridge could be seen. It looked like she had no upper face.

She floated down gently like mist and hugged Aiwass.

But this time, Aiwass did not feel that warm and soft feeling. Aiwass only felt a kind of cold and dampness as if he was embraced by the winter evening breeze, and even his clothes were vaguely filled with moisture.

In a moment of distraction, the woman in white robe disappeared.

Of course, it couldn't be the celestial being descended - the apostles could appear in the material world, but it certainly wasn't possible for the celestial being to appear.

It was just that Wu Tiansi controlled the surrounding fog to become his current appearance and greeted Aiwass.

【Is there a problem? 】

A gentle voice sounded in Aiwas's mind.

It was completely different from the host's hearty voice.

Wu Tiansi's voice was as if he was afraid of waking people from their dreams. It was so gentle that it was like a mother telling a story to her child, patient and gentle.

"I want to know...what new career you have prepared for the Child of the Moon."

Aiwass asked seriously: "I want to give Moon Child a new way out."

[You are a good child... I thank you on their behalf...]

[The path of the Moon Children is not feasible. I will be promoted to the position of Heavenly Master just to give them a new possibility...]

Wu Tiansi murmured softly, his tone gentle and humble.

[However, I have only just taken up the position of Heavenly Minister, and I am still preparing for my new career... But if the Pope wants to see it... I can also give some advice...]

As he said this, new information came into Aiwass's mind.

——That feeling is like being injected with new power by the system.

...I am not the Pope at all! Why do everyone think I am the Pope...

Just as Aiwas was about to complain, he got information about a new profession in a trance:
"Basic profession, Trickster... Is it possible to upgrade to a higher profession by changing from Trickster?

"A good-natured trickster who passes the trial of [Lies and Jokes] can be transferred to a Mist Walker when he advances to the fourth level..."

...Just an advanced profession?

But Aiwass thought about it and felt that it was okay.

Don't aim too high, take them one at a time.

Didn’t the Blood Sky Division only prepare the Blood Lord profession?

"Mist Walkers can hide in the mist at will. This ability is considered a form of 'stealth'. When a Mist Walker is in the mist, they can freely travel above a body of water within their field of vision - as long as the volume of mist after evaporation from the water is larger than their volume... Can this be used to cooperate with the Mist Demon's atomization ability?
"It can create multiple clones that cannot make any sound... Oh, this ability looks familiar to me. The clones cannot cast spells, but can move freely. When attacked, the duration will be lost. The clones must be in a place with sufficient moisture, otherwise the duration will be lost. Does it mean that it can last for a long time in a humid place? There are a lot of clones... But they don't break when attacked, which is good.

"You can create illusions in the fog, manipulate your five senses... or use the fog to turn the imagination and illusions of others or yourself into fragile reality. It is indeed an advanced profession of the trickster."

Aiwass praised: "Not bad, it really tests your imagination. But this doesn't have much to do with the Path of Love, right? It does have a flavor of adapting to the Path... and this profession is very strong. I'm afraid you'll have to allocate a lot of your strength to make this profession work."

The profession of fraudster was originally going to be upgraded to "scary clown" in the future. But now this new profession has given fraudsters a chance to continue to develop upwards.

There are many fraudsters in the Path of Love who are above the third energy level. Just like the Law Master, there is no way to go up, so they can only maintain this first-level profession and continue to develop. Now that there are Mist Walkers, they have the possibility of changing their professions - which also gives them the possibility of becoming Mist Monsters.

[The essence of the path of love is desire, and the essence of the path of beasts is instinct... In the stage of tricksters, they tempered their cunning beast instincts and greedy desires; and when they reached the path of love, they had to manipulate their own and others' desires. I think this makes sense.]

Wu Tiansi whispered softly.

[And the essence of the mist they created... is actually their own souls. Using the soul to create - creating mist, creating illusions, and turning fantasy into reality is also in line with the principles of the source river.]

[As for my own strength... that kind of thing doesn't matter. As long as the children live well, I can devote all my strength to it.]

"...Then I have no objection. But I think it makes sense, and this profession should be established."

Aiwass nodded in confirmation.

[Well, if His Holiness has nothing to do, he can also teach other fraudsters the advanced principles. The core principle is that fraud is a kind of magic, a joke, a strategy, and not a trick to steal people’s property or kill them.]

"...You can't kill people with magic? Is that what you mean?" Aiwass confirmed.

[Yes, that's right. But it doesn't mean you can't kill people, but you should prioritize self-preservation - you can't let your out-of-control emotions control you. I think it's enough for the Moon Children to do this.]

Wu Tiansi began to explain.

——Then you might as well just create a new basic profession called "Magician".

Aiwass muttered to himself, not knowing whether Wu Tiansi heard it.

But he also felt a sense of novelty - after all, this was the first time that Aiwass had truly created a new profession with his own hands.

The profession of the Scholar of Sin was a "prophesied profession" copied by Aiwass, while the Illuminator was a heritage from the ancient elves. Now this new profession was developed from scratch by Aiwass himself!
Even Aiwass was a little impatient - today was the New Moon Ceremony, maybe he could promote a sample first and see.

"Do I know a third-level trickster?"

Aiwass fell into deep thought for a moment.

Then he immediately thought of someone.

——B. Yeats.

But unfortunately, the werewolf has already reached the fifth energy level...

Aiwass shook his head with some regret: "I can't help much here."

You have helped me a lot, thank you.

Wu Tiansi said gently: [Thank you too... for giving my children a chance]

But Aiwass just shook his head slightly and did not comment.
