scepter

On the wooden bar of the tavern, Azul put an empty glass on the counter heavily.

"Continued Cup!"

"Ten copper coins, thank you."

Asur stared wide-eyed, "I just paid you a lot of money!"

The tavern owner didn't bother to argue with the drunk: "It's true that you paid one silver coin just now, but you have already drank ten glasses before, and this is the No. 11 cup!"

"Nonsense! It's only the tenth glass!" With a wave of his hand, Azul swept the wine glass to the ground, and grabbed the boss's collar with his other hand and grabbed it.

"Do you know that I am a mage! I can crush you to death with one finger!"

"Oh, yes, yes, the great mage!" The boss mocked, "but this is not a place for you to play wild!"

No one can afford to open a tavern in Tome Town.

But Azul didn't realize this at all, and still grabbed the boss's collar and played like a drunk.

Just when the boss was about to throw him out, he put a hand on Asur's shoulder.

That hand was so white that it was dazzling, at least the tavern owner and Azul were attracted at the same time, and looked at the owner of the hand together.

A head of fiery red slightly curly long hair hangs over his shoulders, and the other party is wearing an improved mage robe, the neckline is pulled down very low, revealing the deep ravine inside, the half-exposed chest is even whiter than his hands, the mage robe is quite Covering a pair of breasts, the cloth tightly binds the body, wrapping the breasts more and more vividly, and exposing the enchanting body curves in front of people.

Coupled with a beautiful face, this is almost every man's dream lover.

"He's my friend, don't you mind if I chat with him?" The beautiful mage still put her hand on Azul's shoulder, and gave the tavern owner a charming smile.

"Oh!" The boss looked into those violet eyes and involuntarily let go of his hand.

The beautiful mage hugged Asur's waist, and breathed into his ear: "I'm very lonely, would you like to accompany me?"

"Of course!" Even if he was not lightly drunk, Azul had no resistance to beautiful women.

He looked at that beautiful and enchanting face almost fascinated, deeply smelled the violet fragrance emanating from the other person, and suspected that this affair was just a hallucination after he was drunk.

With the support of the beautiful woman, Azul staggered out of the tavern, with most of his body almost leaning on her.

The two walked into a dark and remote alley, accompanied by the envious eyes of others, until the figures of the two were swallowed by the darkness, the adult man knew what would happen next.

Unexpectedly, he was pressed against the wall, and the aroma that hit his face became more and more intense. As a virgin, Azul should have been at a loss, but the smell of alcohol was bold, and he only felt ecstatic.

"What's your name..." He murmured, putting his hands on the waist of the beautiful woman to stabilize his figure.

"Toines." The voice of the beautiful mage was also very nice.

"...Why does it look like a man's name?" Azul muttered, frowning.

"Don't you like it?" The bumpy body was pressed against him, and the beautiful mage had a bold and unrestrained style. She directly grabbed Azul's hand and covered her chest.

Then?

Then Azul knew nothing.

"A noble mage?"

In a certain room of the hotel, the priest raised his eyebrows slightly and suddenly understood.

A long time ago, the Holy See of Light became the state religion of all countries with its indisputable authority, but after the rise of mages, the Holy See gradually lost its authority to rule beliefs in Olin.

Instead, many countries that do not want to be controlled by the Holy See began to flirt with the mage secretly, fighting for the best interests in the game between the two.

In order to show their loyalty to the Holy See, many nobles once sent their children with magical talents to the Holy See to study and become priests.

Similarly, after the Magic Guild became powerful, many nobles secretly became mages—not only to enhance their own strength, but also to get closer to the Magic Guild.

But even so, nobles from all over the world, especially big nobles, if they also have the status of mages, they will generally not make it public, so as not to be troubled by the Holy See.

With Chris' tyrannical strength, but also need to cover up his appearance to avoid being recognized by others, then his identity must not be an ordinary nobleman.

Thinking of this, Yannick suddenly remembered the thing that he felt familiar with the fragrance of the other party before. Maybe before this body was hunted down, he had actually seen Chris's aristocratic status at a certain banquet.

But now he can't remember how, and he doesn't smell that scent from Chris anymore.

The benefits of having a wealthy aristocrat as a teacher are obvious. Yannick thought of the red magic crystal that he had just put into the magic bag, and secretly sighed, and the smile on his face became more gentle and amiable.

"Don't show such an ugly smile." The noble mage pierced it mercilessly again.

The priest's psychological quality is very strong, and he doesn't think he is disobedient when he is hit repeatedly. "If you want to go on the road with Lily and the others, I'm afraid they still need you to come forward to explain. Presumably they will have doubts about the fact that I wear the bishop's ring, especially with Asur present. Not too good."

"Why bother, just give them a hypnotizing spell." The noble mage disagreed.

It's really simple and rude, Yannick couldn't laugh or cry.

Chris: "One more thing."

Yannick: "?"

Chris: "You're hurt."

Yannick looked at his hand stretching towards his face, but couldn't react, the other's fingers finally stopped on the left side of the neck.

When he touched it, the place that didn't feel it before really hurt a little.

Yannick looked sideways in the mirror, and found that there was a red mark, slightly oozing blood, and a little swollen.

This kind of minor injury can be treated with elementary treatment. Yannick didn't take it seriously. After treating the wound, he found a somewhat embarrassing problem.

He said, "There seems to be only one bed in this room?"

Chris raised an eyebrow.Know without words that he wants to express "so what?"

Two big men... Well, it really doesn't matter, at most, the bed is a bit small, only the size of a single bed.

Yannick rubbed his nose, and voluntarily backed down: "My sleeping posture is not very good, or I can sleep on the floor."

"No need." Chris paused, "Or do you like to sleep naked?"

Yannick twitched the corner of his mouth: "I don't have that habit."

Chris looked at him without saying a word, with an expression of "That's it, what's the matter?"

Yannick had to compromise.

The bed was even smaller than it appeared visually, and two people couldn't even lie flat on it, they could only lie flat on one side and the other on their side, and it was said that this was already the best hotel in Tome Town.

Yannick felt uncomfortable as he bent his body. Although everyone was a man, if he moved his hands randomly, it would be embarrassing if he touched something that shouldn't be touched. He had no choice but to be honest and dare not even turn over. This feeling is even more uncomfortable when there is another person's body temperature and breathing next to me.

If he knew that his teacher was a rich man, he should have asked for a single room at that time.

There were all kinds of thoughts in my head, and I didn't even know when I fell asleep. When I woke up the next day, I found that my head had been separated from the pillow and rested on Chris's neck. The body is also infinitely fit, and an arm of the other party is even across his waist.

If someone suddenly broke in and saw this scene at this time, the misunderstanding would definitely be deeper.

Yannick thought of the ambiguous expressions on the faces of Lily and the others and the swordsman Feizel before, and couldn't help but feel a little headache.

He propped up his upper body, trying to move the arm around his waist away, and at the same time, the other party also opened his eyes.

"Good morning." Chris said.

"Good morning." Shouldn't you move your hand away when you say this?

The next moment, Yannick was stiff all over.

Because the other party approached suddenly and kissed him lightly on the cheek.

"Good morning kiss." The mage said expressionlessly.

"..." Although he has a Western face now, he was still a restrained Easterner in his previous life!The priest, who was a bit of a clean freak, resisted the urge to reach out to wipe his face, and quickly rolled over and got out of bed.

The wrist was grabbed. "Aren't you going to return the gift?"

Faced with the serious expression of the academic madman, Yannick coughed lightly and took out the magic stick. No, it was the professional ethics of a priest. "The morning greetings between priests are not like this."

Chris raised an eyebrow.

The priest put his other hand on the other's forehead, and left after a while, with a harmless smile on his face. "This is the greeting from the priest."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Yannick secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and hurriedly got up to open the door. He really didn't want to face an academic fanatic's investigation.

Lily was standing outside the door holding the elf. The latter was still sucking his fingers with a drowsy face. After seeing the priest, he immediately regained his energy and stretched out his arms to hug him.

"Good morning, did I disturb you?"

"No. We just got up too." Yannick smiled and took the elf from her hand. "Did Aphra and the others get up?"

"Yes, except for Azul, according to D'Antonio, that guy came back very late last night and is still sleeping in!" Lily was a little helpless.

"Maybe you can do me a favor and invite Aphra and Dantonio here." Yannick glanced at Chris, saw that he had no objection, and continued, "We have something to discuss with you. "

Lily blinked and joked, "Is it a good thing or a bad thing?"

Yannick smiled and said, "It's a good thing, I promise."

Everyone gathered here in no time, except for Azul - the consensus was that everything would go a little better without him.

Yannick first explained the matter of the bishop's ring to them. He always thought that it was not a good way to use a hypnotic spell on them directly by Chris, as it could not completely erase the memory in a person's mind. When it is high, the spell might fail, and it will be more troublesome at that time, it is better to let them clear up their doubts from the beginning.

However, his explanation was much simpler than what he said to Chris, and he did not reveal his identity. He just lied half-truth, saying that the ring was given to him by a bishop before he died, and asked him to take it to the Holy See Go, but after being hunted down by unknown people, he fled to Jed Town and met everyone.

Lily and the others are good-hearted, and they are both inexperienced magicians. Of course, they couldn't find any flaws in his words, and they were quite sympathetic when they heard that he was hunted down. apology.

"I'm sorry to cause you trouble. We all misunderstood you before, but you'd better go to the Garter Empire with us, because it's not particularly safe for a priest to travel alone." Aphra said sincerely.

"Thank you, Aphra." Yannick smiled. "In fact, it is my luck to be able to walk with you. Otherwise, if I change a team of mages, my head may already be hanging in front of the Magic Guild. But now I have to talk to you." What you discussed was another matter. In fact, those swordsmen approached Chris again last night and invited him to the Dark Forest with a price of [-] gold coins. Chris agreed and wanted us to go together. Two of them One hundred gold coins is our reward."

Aphra and the others were stunned.

Two hundred gold coins is not a small amount, and they are very self-aware, with Chris around, they are just a foil, but now Chris actually invites them to go with them, and still wants to give them money? !

"We don't seem to be able to help much. We are not qualified to receive this reward." Aphra barely calmed down, speaking on behalf of the other two mages who were still a little dizzy from the two hundred gold coins.

"No, what Chris means is that since we are already companions, we should share the good things with everyone. Besides, you are not completely helpless." The teacher didn't speak, and the students did their best. Yannick was already used to it In order to act as Chris's spokesperson, he kept his expression on his face after some beautiful words.

Aphra and the others are not cunning and cunning people, so they were naturally moved after hearing these words, thinking that Chris doesn't look easy to get close to, so it turns out that they value their friends so much in their hearts.

Dantonio clicked his tongue: "Even so, two hundred gold coins is too much!"

Yannick insisted: "You deserve it, don't you, Chris?"

Chris: "Oh."

Yannick: "..."

Just when D'Antonio and the others were about to decline again, a lazy voice came from the door: "Two hundred gold coins are enough for me to drink hundreds of glasses of wine!"

Aphra frowned: "Azul, we're talking about business!"

Azul, who looked like he had just woken up, stretched his waist, raised his eyebrows and crossed his chest: "I'm helping you make up your mind!" He raised his chin at Chris, "The gang of swordsmen are already waiting below. It's over, should we go down quickly, don't let my gold coins fly away!"

Chris didn't say anything, and walked out first, Aphra and others glared at Azul, and then walked out.

Azul didn't take it seriously, and followed at the end, staring at the priest's back, with an unknown smile on his lips.

The author has something to say: PS, focus on answering 2 questions.

Question 1: The Holy See focuses on healing, so how can it compete with aggressive professions like mages?Focus on answering here, so as not to have to reply once every time.

1. This article is not the background of the game, so don’t use the skills of the game to substitute it. Priests also have attack skills, which is the shining light mentioned above. Although only high-level priests can use this spell, it is very powerful if used well.

2. As priests, there will be an invisible talent, which can make them have an irresistible affinity [forgot to write it or write it in the manuscript ==]. For ordinary people, this affinity is especially It is difficult to resist, so the protagonist can easily win everyone's love after staying in Jed Town for a month at the beginning [There are also factors of self-effort, affinity is a bonus].For mages, the infection of this kind of affinity is much weaker and basically has no effect. This is why the Holy See was able to occupy the spiritual dominance of the mainland for a long time before.

3. As mentioned above, before the fall of the gods, the Holy See existed under the blessing of the highest-ranking goddess of light, and was the second generation of officials. Relatively speaking, other elemental mages became inferior, so the mages at that time It has not yet formed a force. With the decline of the gods and the perverse oppression of the Holy See [Yanick: ...], this disparity in status is gradually becoming less obvious. Everyone has the intention to resist, and the mage took the opportunity to raise his head .

4. The Holy See is not a group of priests fighting with bare hands, and they are guarded by knights. [It will be mentioned later] The above reasons have been mentioned in many articles, but some friends do not have a complete concept, so I mention it here to answer everyone’s doubts, otherwise I have to reply every time, and many people will not see it , I apologize for taking up the traffic of reading friends on mobile phones.

Question 2: Why are the priests' robes so conspicuous, but the priests still don't change them?

1. He has no money [6 copper coins were still left in the town, and I didn't have time to take them away, as mentioned above...] 2. They never went into crowded places along the way, so they didn't pay attention to this problem.
