The Path of Ascension to the Priest

The priest selection meeting ended in a delicate and awkward atmosphere. Jonas was called away by Priest Monica, and Tang Qiu was thrown to a brown-haired priest.

The brown-haired priest's appearance was not stunning, but his eyebrows and eyes were very soft, which seemed to Tang Qiu to have an oriental charm, so his first impression of her was not bad, and then she heard the brown-haired priest's self-introduction.

"My name is Linda, and I am the entourage priest of the priest of Sethia."

Tang Qiu blinked, "...Hello."

Priest Linda—one of the priest candidates just now, Tang Qiu felt that the awkward atmosphere might have to continue.

"It's the first time I've seen Jonas praise a newcomer so excitedly." Linda's personality is as gentle as her appearance, and the embarrassment that Tang Qiu thought did not appear. Two people with similar personalities, there is no thorn in the conversation The tit-for-tat confrontation is only as gentle as the wind and drizzle.

Tang Qiu shook his head modestly, "It's Priest Jonas who has given him too much credit."

"You don't need to pay too much attention to Priest Monica's cold attitude." Linda explained to Tang Qiu and comforted her, "She looks cold, but she is actually a very considerate person."

"Don't worry, the Holy See will not bury any outstanding priest."

Tang Qiu nodded with a smile, but did not speak.

Linda led her through the long corridor, came to a room, pushed the door open, she went in and checked it carefully, then opened the closed window, looked at the snow-covered scenery outside, turned her head He smiled at Tang Qiu and said, "This will be your room from now on. I live next door to you. If you need anything, you can come to me."

Tang Qiu walked to her side, glanced outside, and found that the view from this room was unexpectedly good, it should be a very sought-after place, she politely thanked Linda.

One of the benefits of priests who can successfully serve is that they don't have to work hard to find the holy water of light. Linda took out ten bottles of holy water of light and put them on the table beside him, "The Holy See will provide priests with ten bottles of holy water every month. It is used to practice the spell of light."

"If you have made a major contribution to the Holy See, you will also be rewarded with a staff of light."

Linda thought for a while, and added one more, "However, major contributions depend on opportunities, and usually some bright gems, rings, necklaces and the like will be rewarded."

Tang Qiu wrote them down one by one, and nodded to Linda to show that he knew.

After Linda left and only Tang Qiu was left in the room, the smile she had been hanging on her mouth softened a little, and she lowered her head to fiddle with the bright holy water on the table. The Marquis's Mansion where Eddie lived and Anna's manor were many times different.

Sitting on the hard bed, Tang Qiu picked up the handbook for priests and flipped through it casually. The handbook for priests of the Holy See of Bill was similar to that of the Holy See of Goss. She flipped through a few pages and put it aside. Slack down, let her yawn, fell on the bed drowsy.

After sleeping until it was dark, Tang Qiu changed into a new priest's uniform and was about to go out to familiarize himself with the familiar environment and fill his stomach, when he heard a knock on the door, and an indifferent voice came to Tang Qiu's room through the thin wooden board. In the ear, "Grace, Priest Monica told you to gather in the lobby."

Tang Qiu was stunned for a moment, walked over and opened the door, but the speaker was no longer there, she poked her head in for a look, and could only see a figure going away.

Linda came out from the next door, followed Tang Qiu's gaze, and said softly, "That's Priest Jennifer."

Tang Qiu straightened her body and said with a smile, "Priest Monica told me to go to the lobby to gather." She tilted her head, her tone relaxed and casual, "I don't know if we will go along the way."

Linda and Tang Qiu walked side by side, nodded and said, "It's on the way."

"...Could it be that the priest wants to have dinner with us?"

Linda looked at Tang Qiu helplessly, shook her head and said, "Your Excellency the Duke of the Empire has received a report that there are blood clans doing evil in the small town of Kafu within the Empire. Priest Monica attaches great importance to this matter."

The lives of the priests in the Holy See are very monotonous. Apart from the weekly baptism of light, they usually practice light spells in their rooms by themselves.

Of course, if there are dark creatures making trouble in the empire, the priest will leave the Holy See to encircle and suppress them.

It is also the responsibility of the Holy See to establish the Holy See within the territory of the empire and protect the safety of the empire, but the targets are limited to dark creatures, blood races, and werewolves. The Holy See will not interfere in disputes between countries.

It's just... She has only been in office for a short time, so she is going to be sent to encircle and suppress it?Obviously, the new priest will not be assigned such a task until he has practiced the spell of light in the Holy See for one full year.

Linda also thought of this, she thought for a while and said, "Maybe Priest Monica is looking for you for something else."

Tang Qiu felt that 80.00% of this "something else" was related to the blood clan in Kraft Town.

The empty hall was filled with priests and priests rushing over one after another. Linda was at the front. Tang Qiu wanted to keep a low profile so she declined Linda's invitation and chose to stand in the corner.

Bill, the bishop of the Holy See, does not have a high sense of presence.Both belong to priests, but Monica's status seems to be higher than other priests, including the four priests who came from the Central Holy See with the bishop.

This is a very rare situation in any country's Holy See.

"The small town of Kafu harbors a group of eight generations of blood clans. The knights of the empire discovered more than a dozen drained corpses and dumped them in the suburbs. This vicious incident has already caused panic among the people."

"Linda and Jennifer." Monica glanced at the two of them, and said expressionlessly: "You take five priests and ten holy knights, and drive out this group of blood races."

A priest with a slightly stronger light spell can deal with the eight generations of blood, just drive them out, and Monica's request is not very difficult.

Linda and Jennifer went down to select priests, but Monica left Tang Qiu alone, looked her up and down, and said, "You come to help them two."

Tang Qiu, who had already prepared himself, was not surprised by her words, but there was still a little surprise on his face, and he nodded immediately, and replied, "Okay."

"I will seriously consider Jonas's recommendation, but you also need to show me your ability." Monica said the same thing as Linda in a cold tone, "The Holy See will not bury any outstanding priest. .”

She paused, looked at Tang Qiu carefully again, and asked with a frown, "Judging from the bright aura around you, you should have been selected by the Central Holy See. How did you go to experience it?"

Tang Qiu made a random excuse without changing his expression, "Because I was delayed by some people."

Monica was stunned for a moment, she didn't know what to think of, and her tone softened a little, "...Although they are also believers of the Goddess of Light, some people don't have light in their hearts at all."

Tang Qiu raised her eyes and glanced at Monica, and found that she seemed to be immersed in some past events and was a little absent-minded. She took this opportunity to look at Monica, and was surprised to find that there was a scar on her forehead.

Only being wounded by the dark breath will leave scars on the priest's body.

Monica noticed Tang Qiu's gaze, she turned her head slightly, covered the scar with her hair, frowned and said displeasedly: "What are you looking at?"

Tang Qiu lowered his eyes, covered his eyes thoughtfully, and shook his head, "It's nothing."

Monica, who was going to give her some advice, pursed her lips, snorted coldly, turned around and strode away.

The town of Kafu and the Holy See are separated by two cities. However, the Holy See has established teleportation arrays in various cities of the Bill Empire, so it won't take long to rush there.

Night is the home of the blood race, and the feast of blood often comes with darkness.

Although Tang Qiu was given the task of assisting Linda and Jennifer by Monica, the specific implementation required three people to discuss together.

However, when one of the three refused to discuss, and went straight to the town of Kafu with the selected priest and knight, while the other wavered and didn't know how to mediate, he had no choice but to walk behind him, and the remaining one didn't know what to do. What can the person who belongs to the former and does not belong to the latter be left alone?

Tang Qiu sighed, she could only figure it out on her own, who made her just a poor little priest who just took office.

When Tang Qiu came to the town of Kraft with the help of the teleportation array, Linda and Jennifer were no longer visible. She was wearing a wide cloak and hood, and she was playing with the cloak that Linda gave her before leaving. A ring that can hide the aura of light.

The magic circle on the ring is time-sensitive and can last up to three days.

In the small town of Kraft, which is shrouded in night, there seems to be a dark monster with its mouth wide open behind it, trying to swallow it. It looks calm but hides murderous intentions.

Tang Qiu strolled in the empty streets, the houses on both sides were closed, only the tavern still had a little light, occasionally there was a smell of wine, and the drunk man lying unconscious on the ground could be seen at the corner.

Because she didn't know the action plan of Linda and Jennifer, Tang Qiu walked two streets but couldn't find them. She pondered for a while, then stopped, turned around and opened the curtain of a tavern, bent over and walked in.

Instead of aimlessly looking for a team of priests who don't welcome him, it's better to find out the situation of the blood race first, and then wait and see what happens.

If you want to find out the situation of the blood race, the taverns that are also bustling at night are often the places where they actively hunt.

Not long after Tang Qiu entered the tavern, Kraft town ushered in a new guest, with delicate facial features that were not real, and a gorgeous dark dress, the visitor looked like an aristocratic girl who came here from the main city by mistake , she raised her head and looked ahead, her pale face looked sickly against the backdrop of the night, and her dark red eyes couldn't hide a trace of gloom.

The person who came was Lucille who followed Tang Qiu's aura to find here. She looked around, frowned and took a deep breath, her cold voice mixed with a trace of disgust, "The blood race..."

There were blood clans entrenched here. Lucille stood at the same position as Tang Qiu and quietly looked at the town of Kraft that was shrouded in darkness. She was silent for a while, and finally walked in with a straight face.
