Becoming a God by Raising a Witch

Locke still didn't want to give up reading "Witch Revelation".

Irene was full and a little sleepy, and didn't want to continue answering Locke's questions until Locke took out another colorful fructose candy, peeled off the candy wrapper, and fed it to her mouth.

Irene licked her tongue and narrowed her eyes into crescents,

"I don't really like sweets that much."

Well, she obviously enjoyed it, but she still refused to admit that she was conquered by candy. You are just arrogant.

Locke complained in his heart.

"If you want to read "Witch Revelation", there is no way to avoid its influence. It's like a kind of pollution. If you just want to know some common sense, I can tell you."

I'm waiting for you to say this.

Locke returned the book to Irene and looked at her expectantly.

Irene licked the fructose in her mouth and said slowly,

"Every witch has extraordinary power. These powers are innate and come from the original supreme being, the goddess of doom. Some people also call her the witch of natural disasters."

"She once ruled an entire continent, but finally fell in the war of gods. She had 12 disciples. These disciples devoured her flesh and blood to rise up and became 12 ancient witches. They each have power in different fields."

Locke has read many miscellaneous books. It is said that the Age of Gods was destroyed by a terrible war of gods. This battle destroyed the once prosperous East Continent and civilization.

After the war of gods, the twilight of the gods, most gods chose to return to the starry sky, and no true gods appeared in the world since then.

Perhaps the war of gods that Irene said was this war of gods.

I didn't expect that the witch of natural disasters also fell in that war, and her body was devoured by the 12 disciples.

"In the Age of Chaos, these 12 ancient witches made a contract with the devil, hoping to fight for the dragon's dominance over the world and preserve the fire for their believers. In the end, they joined hands to bring down a world-destroying disaster. The dragon became extinct, but they also cursed the 12 ancient witches, causing them to lose their strange powers. They were avoided by their believers as disasters, and were pushed to the gallows in regret and despair."

The witches actually protected weak humans.

Locke was a little surprised that there was a difference between the witch history told by Irene and the world history he had read.

The Tumen Kingdom compiled three world histories, which Locke had read. They only recognized the five true gods, the Goddess of Life, the God of Light, the God of Machinery, the Goddess of Wisdom, and the God of the Ocean, and believed that these five true gods preserved the fire of mankind in the war of gods. In the Age of Chaos, although the true gods were hidden, they sent their followers to continue to protect the weak humans until they established city-states and kingdoms.

"For a long time, witches have been a taboo word. Those witches with strange talents will be discovered by humans and sent to the gallows when they just awaken. Witches and humans are like water and fire."

"Humans have established city-states and kingdoms again, civilization has begun to develop, and entered the glorious era. Witches have become what they call weird. They are considered to be the same as demons, blood clans, resentful souls, and shadows, which have negative attributes. They are all the source of disasters and misfortunes."

Irene finished eating the candy, and she continued until Locke fed her another one.

"The advantage of witches is that they have extraordinary beauty, and the disadvantage is that their desires in one aspect are very strong."

"Which aspect?"

Locke swallowed his saliva.

Irene glanced at him, "Can't you see it?"

Well, okay, your desire for food is indeed very strong.

Will the director be a pure foodie like you?

"Xiao Ai, are the people chasing you also trying to get your witch heart?"

Locke suddenly asked.

Irene buried her head in her furry belly and curled up into a ball, refusing to answer.

She had revealed enough today and didn't want to communicate more with the owner.

And eating too much makes it easy to get sleepy.

Considering that he had to get up early the next day, Locke also fell asleep on the sofa.

He woke up the next day and found himself lying on the floor.

It was obviously the black cat Irene who kicked him down.

Locke looked at the black cat still lying on the sofa with some resentment.

How big are you, why are you so domineering?

The black cat slowly opened his eyes,

"Stupid owner, do you have any opinion about me?"

"No."

Locke decided to endure it. Now the favorability has reached 35, and the serfs will rise up and sing songs in the near future.

At that time, Irene will definitely accept the cruelest punishment in the world, singing Conquer while cleaning the bathroom.

Locke knocked on the door to wake up Hannah and went to the kitchen to prepare a simple breakfast.

Because the siblings both had to go to work in the distant East District, they chose the simplest sandwich for breakfast.

Black cat Irene didn't like the sandwiches, but she ate three of them for Locke's sake.

Locke drew [Acute Hearing] again, and with the little secrets he had heard intermittently during this period, his proficiency reached 212, 788 short.

The black cat has become noticeably fatter, even though only a week has passed.

I believe that if she continues to eat like this, she will be as fat as a piglet in the spring of next year.

I hope she won't be so plump when she becomes a human.

Locke sighed in his heart.

Irene, who didn't have the ability to read minds, didn't realize that her owner was questioning her figure.

Locke left some candy for Irene and left Old Tom's apartment with his sister Hannah.

A new day began.

Chapter 70, The Cultivation of a Senior Food Blogger

Locke chose to go with Hannah. Although this would cause him to arrive at the Investigation Bureau about 40 minutes earlier, the two of them could save half the fare by riding in a carriage together.

After successfully crossing the Trey Bridge, the Cathedral of Life just rang the 7 o'clock bell.

A group of white pigeons circled above the central square, and hardworking people had already appeared in the streets and alleys.

"Locke, wish me good luck."

"Hannah, the goddess of luck will favor you and meet a less naughty student."

"On the first day of work, don't be willful, learn more from other chefs."

The two got off the carriage, hugged each other lightly, and told each other, and then merged into the crowd in different directions. Unlike the gray-white shadows in the West District, the shadows in the East District seemed to be colorful.

The pedestrians on the street were dressed brightly, mainly in green, blue and orange.

Hannah and Locke turned back almost at the same time, looked in each other's direction, and then both smiled brightly.

"See you tonight, handsome gentleman."

"See you tonight, beautiful lady."

The two turned around again and headed in different directions, but both were in a happy mood.

Locke did not do radio gymnastics in the apartment today. He planned to take this reserved project to the Bureau of Investigation.

Since it was still early, Locke went to the Cathedral of Life in Santa Figueroa.

The church is open 24 hours a day and will not turn Locke away just because he arrives too early.

A few devout believers were sitting in the empty prayer room, all praying to the goddess.

Locke found a seat in the back row and sat down. A little girl in a green robe came forward and handed him a leaf of an evergreen tree.

The leaves of this evergreen tree are similar in shape to the leaves of the tree of life, and are hard and not easily damaged. After simple air drying and film coating, they can be used as decorations and hung around the neck or wrist.

Almost every believer of the Life Sect has one.

These leaves will be given away free of charge by the church. These children in green robes are the ones who give the leaves. They must be girls under 8 years old and look well-behaved, so they have been given a special title, the Green Leaf Girl.

These Green Leaf Girls are generally orphans who depend on the church. They were abandoned by their parents very early, or sent directly to the church.

In addition to giving leaves, they will also appear in the choir.

In the future, they will become nuns in the church and serve the goddess all their lives. They will not get married or have children.

Priests are different. Priests can get married and have children, and even have illegitimate children.

Locke took the leaves and thanked the Green Leaf Girl.

Louisa smiled sweetly and said in a childish voice,

"My name is Louisa. Please come every day in the future. I will give you a leaf every day. I hope the goddess will bless you with health."

"I can only promise to be here for this month, Miss Louisa, Locke thanks you for your generosity."

Locke said with a smile.

"Okay, Locke, although it's only a month, I can at least see you every day. I've fallen in love with you at first sight. I hope you won't let me down."

As soon as Louisa finished this sentence, she was picked up by the young nun Sinai.

Sinai's face was full of apologies,

"I'm sorry, please don't mind, this child always likes to talk nonsense, Louisa, confess to the goddess quickly."

"Beautiful goddess, Louisa is wrong."

The green leaf girl Louisa lowered her head and said aggrievedly.

The next second, she raised her head happily and said to Locke,

"You are really the most handsome man I have ever seen. When I grow up, I will marry you."

Louisa's calves fluttered, and her little body struggled hard, but she was forcibly taken away by Sister Sinai after all, probably to be put in solitary confinement.

Locke opened his mouth slightly, not knowing what to say.

This damn charm, even the child is not spared?

He held the leaf and prayed to the goddess symbol in front of the church with other prayers.

The goddess of life, Pena, is also known as the goddess of the earth, the mother of all living things, and the most respected and prominent god among all gods. She was born from the crack and is also the first super-primitive god.

The Life Cult believes that her appearance marks the beginning of chaos from disorder to order, and also marks the beginning of the creation of all things.

She does not have a specific statue, and her symbol is the vines and green leaves growing in the cracks.

The prayer time is usually 5 minutes to half an hour, and the longer the time, the more pious.

Locke chose a moderate 15 minutes.

After the prayer, he left the Santa Figueroa Cathedral of Life.

This time, there were no vines that suddenly grew and attacked his head or butt.

It seems that the goddess of life has temporarily accepted herself.

Well, or it can be said that she was taught a lesson by Father Barnes before.

I didn't expect Father Barnes to be such a person in private.

Since he saved my life, I still don't bother with him.

Locke left the church and headed towards the Sixth Security Court.

At 7:40, Locke walked into the Abnormal Adjustment Bureau.

The hall was still empty.

Walking through the hall, Locke passed Mrs. Freya's office. The door of the office was closed. He gave up the idea of ​​saying good morning, guessing that Mrs. Freya might not show up until 8:59.

Locke came to the kitchen and found that the cooks had not arrived yet. He nodded and started to do radio gymnastics.

[Body coordination proficiency +1]

After doing a set of exercises, Locke felt that his body was only slightly hot, and he could continue to do 3 sets.

Unfortunately, time waits for no one, and Old Lani came.

Old Lani was surprised that Locke came earlier than him.

"Good morning, Mr. Lani."

"Just call me Old Lani."
