From the Esoteric Cult Family to the Kingdom of God

Ten days passed before the assistant priest of the bishop of the Storm Church came to Nasir.

He met with Byrne and the old priest in the church.

"You again?"

Assistant priest Zain still remembered Byrne. They had met once a few years ago because of the incident of the Son of the Abyss.

He sat on the chair, squinting his eyes and looking at Byrne up and down, feeling that the man had become much more stable.

"A few years ago, you told me that you were a bloodline knight and a transformation type spellcaster. At that time, it didn't matter whether you concealed it or not. Now that you have reached the level of qualitative change, you must show it to me in detail."

As an auditor, he also has joint responsibilities. If the person being audited does not meet the qualifications and ends up becoming a baron, then Zain will also be punished after the incident is exposed.

Byrne was surprised. Shouldn't it be the "transformation" level? Why did the other party say qualitative change?

In the common language of the Oden Continent, metamorphosis and qualitative change are two completely different words, so he can easily hear the difference.

But Byrne was not stupid enough to remind the assistant priest that he was wrong, but just started to show the spells he mastered.

He was going to pretend to be a "transformed spellcaster" who had reached the second level.

After a spellcaster reaches the second level and "transforms" through cultivation inheritance and potions, his mental power will increase several times, and his output efficiency and recovery efficiency will increase.

At the same time, the number of spell models that can be remembered in the mind increases from three to five.

The biggest difference is that after the control of mental power becomes more acute, the second-level spellcaster can master several common spell skills.

The five common spellcasting skills are "declaration", "silent casting", "expansion", "twin", and "enhancement".

They can make their next spell have a completely different new effect by consuming several times the mental power.

It may be "declaring" the effect of their spell in advance in exchange for an increase in the spellcasting hit rate, or "expansion" to increase the range of the spell effect, as well as "twin" to release the same spell twice at the same time, "silent casting" to release the spell without speaking, and the purest "enhancement" to enhance the power of the spell.

The spell that Byrne wanted to show was the "sketch" that he used most skillfully in his daily life.

He did not show his "pre-made painting", but painted on the spot, and at the same time he was mumbling something pretending to chant a spell.

Now he has improved the fragility effect caused by "sketch" a lot, and can even make steel as easy to be damaged as old clothes.

"It is indeed not an effect that can be achieved by a caster at the origin level, and it is also a great threat to the extraordinary at the metamorphic level."

The assistant priest looked at the iron armor that was easily torn into pieces, and nodded thoughtfully.

"Speaking of which, what do you think of the word qualitative change? Is it much better than metamorphosis?"

Byrne was stunned for a moment, and quickly responded:

"Indeed, the process of reaching the second level from the first level is explained by the statement that quantitative change finally leads to qualitative change, which sounds more appropriate than the simple transformation of things."

"Okay, I think so too." The assistant priest smiled and nodded happily.

"The church is now considering whether to change the name of the second level."

Change the name?

Byrne fell into deep thought, thinking that things should not be as simple as changing the name.

The assistant priest stood up with his hands behind his back and said slowly:

"It's mainly because some old guys disagree. In fact, it's not just about 'deterioration' and 'qualitative change'. Many rules set hundreds of years ago or even earlier should also be changed."

"Do you think I'm right?"

Byrne nodded without hesitation and smiled: "Indeed, knowledge and rules need to be improved in order to adapt to the changing times."

The assistant priest laughed and said: "Hahahahaha, okay, Baron Byrne, it seems that you and we have the same idea."

"The times have changed, and the church also needs a little change!"

The old priest stood aside and remained silent, with a wry smile on his face.

Byrne smiled and nodded, but a storm was stirred up in his heart.

I have heard that the situation of several major churches is unstable. Has the internal division and struggle of the Storm Church reached the point where it is open to outsiders?

The Fisher family had already calculated the time when the assistant priest would come, and the celebration banquet they were going to hold happened to be on this day.

If they had to wait one more day, the very busy assistant priests would not want to stay any longer.

However, since the time was just right and Byrne's answer satisfied him, Zain finally attended the celebration banquet.

There were quite a lot of people coming and going at this celebration banquet, as many as hundreds of people.

Not only the rich and powerful people in Nasir Town, but also the knight families and powerful families in many surrounding villages sent people.

When everyone saw Zain, the deputy of the Storm Bishop, they were all very surprised and tried every means to please this real big man.

Zain always maintained an indifferent attitude and only took the initiative to say a few words to Byrne and the old priest.

He had a very high status, second only to the Storm Bishop and the Governor of the East Coast.

In the East Coast Province with millions of people, only Viscount Bester, the "Fox" of the Lion Family, and Viscount Xavier, the "Black Eagle" of the Eagle Family, could be on par with Zain.

And compared to the intimidating Storm Bishop, the busy assistant priests were more like people who held real power.

So Zain had no energy or thoughts to deal with ordinary knights and rich people. In the end, he was a little tired and left early to rest.

Byrne clearly felt that everyone was relieved after the big boss left, and the tension immediately subsided a lot.

But everyone looked at him and Irene and other members of the Fisher family with more respect.

Especially those people from the knight families who were not in Nasir Town.

They had only heard that the Fisher family in Nasir Town was very powerful, but they had never known the real situation. Now they met and knew that this guy was really powerful, and even had a relationship with the big figures of the Storm Church.

At this time, Vanessa ran over and said to Irene in her ear: "Dean, another important person is here."

"Who?" Irene asked immediately.

Vanessa answered calmly: "People from the two baron families around Nasir Town came together."

It was not surprising.

Irene nodded. It was normal for neighboring families to come to visit, participate in the celebration banquet, and get closer to the future baron family.

But there was one thing that surprised her.

Two rumored hostile baron families actually came together?

There is a baron family in the west and south of Nasir Town, namely the Case family and the Leander family.

The knight bloodline of the Case family, the "Black Stone Iron Dragon", has the power of dragonization, so it is also called the "Dragon Scale Family". The family manor is in the west of Nasir Town and controls three knight families.

The Leander family is located in the south of Nasir Town. The bloodline power is the "Forest Dragon Mammoth" that can control plants and control two knight families.

The two families have always been hostile to each other, often having disputes and even fighting, and even killing members of the hostile families.

Soon, Byrne, Irene and others saw that the visitors from the two baron families were the heads of their respective families.

The head of the Case family is a middle-aged man with neat and luxurious clothes. He is tall, with slightly dark skin, three-dimensional facial features like knife carving, and broad shoulders.

The most noteworthy thing is the orange-yellow eyes that look like snake pupils, which give off a devilish feeling.

The head of the Leander family is a kind-looking old man, over sixty years old, with a slightly plump figure.

He squinted his eyes and stared at Byrne and others, thinking about something.

Byrne smiled, but deep down he knew that both families were uninvited guests.

In recent months, the news of Baron Hoven's mental disorder has spread throughout the four towns on the east coast.

After the Case family and the Leander family received accurate information, they did not hesitate to test the almost ownerless town of Nasir.
