Chapter 165 – Divine Power (1)
*
The high priest told Kerry that he was a priest.
It was because Kerry had divine power.
But Kerry was afraid that something like this would happen, so she had an excuse in mind.
The embarrassed party all look at Kerry.
“Is Kerry a priest?”
“That actually has circumstances.”
Kerry’s words stretched back and forth, but her point her was one.
It was said that she accepted the condition of becoming her priest in order to bring the saint.
Lina said with a shocked face.
“Doesn’t Kerry-sama hate Elena? Why such a condition…”
“Because Lina-nim said she really needed a saintess.”
Lina bit her lip. Certainly, the saintess was indispensable in the future battle.
But she also felt uncomfortable thinking that Kerry had sacrificed herself for her sake.
‘As expected, there was no way the saintess would follow me without paying anything.
Did Elena just want to improve her relationship her with her her Kerry her?’
Lina felt deeply indebted to Kerry.
‘I will definitely pay this debt. Kerry.’
Kerry’s conscience her pricked at the determined look that passed behind her her moved expression her.
In fact, she wasn’t at the level of having a bad conscience recently, but at a critical level, like a hospitalized patient in an intensive care unit.
Seeing Lina’s pure trust in her in her only hurts her conscience in her. Kerry avoided Lina’s gaze.
I’m really sorry for lying. It’s Lina
The other party has also been worried about Kerry.
“Seobang-sama. And because of us… Such a group…”
“Kerry, why do you always try to handle everything yourself?”
Kerry is a pure group that believes and sees everything without any filter what she says.
As she looked at it, her conscience was about to go into cardiac arrest.
‘I’m trash! I’m really sorry!’
Kerry wanted to quickly change the subject of conversation.
At that time, she said as if she was curious about the high priest.
“The warriors didn’t know that Kerry had her divine power in her. I’m sorry.
Unintentionally, it became a nuisance to Kerry-sama.”
“It’s okay. High priest.”
In fact, nothing is fine. But is n’t it something she can’t even curse in front of her face?
At that time, she could see the eyes of the saintess staring at her with excitement. If she could swear with her eyes of her, she would look like that.
‘See you later.’
Come to think of it, the reason Kerry became trash was due to her saintess.
Even if she was just a saint, she wouldn’t have to lie like this. I’m suddenly hot
Then the high priest asked Kerry.
“If you’re not a priest, what role did Kerry originally play in the party?”
That’s really hard to put into words. She seems like a commander these days, but she uses magic to protect her rear her as a shield.
She never thought that here she would suddenly be thinking about her identity. But still, the clearest image is the wizard.
“At the party, she acted as a wizard. Although she is still immature.”
“…”
The high priest made a puzzled expression. What else is this time?
“That’s a little strange. You sure have divine power…Are you a real wizard?”
Natasha answered instead.
“Seobang-nim is a very talented wizard! Everyone here knows that.”
“…”
“Is it really that strange for a wizard to become a priest?”
“…Yes. Priests are those who serve God and are loved by God. However, wizards are often hated by the gods because of their arrogance…
Even the miracles of God they try to understand rationally.”
“…”
“Anyway, that’s why the priest’s other job is all of the sword-wielding paladins. Usually, that is.”
“…”
“But it seems that the warrior’s companions are special. Considering that Elena allowed Kerry-sama.”
In fact, she has never been given permission by Elena. She just came out of the holy woman’s milk at will.
“If it’s a case similar to Kerry’s… I’d say Asmodeus from an old legend.”
The legend of Asmodeus must have been heard by the witch.
Concerned that the holy power she had obtained from the saintess might become her mask, she asked the witch about what she had heard.
A man who acquired divine power without an owner like Kerry. It was the legend of Asmodeus, the man who became an immortal king.
But the White Witch didn’t know much more than that.
Just because she was an archmage did n’t mean she mastered all her knowledge of her.
However, the priest in front of him seemed to know something.
“I’d like to hear more about that story.”
Kerry felt like she was looking for clues on how to use the divine power she had accumulated within her body.
*
The high priest said this to Kerry’s sudden serious look at her.
“I-I don’t know the details of that legend either.
I just happened to read a few related books in our library.”
I’m sorry, but I don’t know. Is there anything special? Kerry came to the library to find another clue.
She was to investigate Asmodeus.
‘I never thought there would be a library like this in a different world where paper is precious.’
It is a fairly large library. Even by modern standards.
It would take several months to search this library alone, but Kerry was the hero’s ally.
When Kerry asked to find her book her, all her librarians her came forward.
Librarians are people who have spent their entire lives managing libraries here.
It was a matter of seconds for Kerry to pull out the material she wanted.
Dozens of books presumed to have related content pile up in front of Kerry.
‘It’s good to have a good warrior name.’
She, of course, had no intention of reading all these books by herself.
More than anything, I have a close bookworm, so why am I watching this alone?
‘Will the witch like it if I bring this to her?’
All old, thick books.
At least it seems to be well managed. If someone brought this to Kerry as a gift, she was confident she would lash out at her.
Kerry moved all her books her into her room her and told her group her.
“From now on, I’ll just read books all day. No one can disturb me until I come out, okay?”
“Kerry. Are you going to read all those books? We have to leave tomorrow…”
Dozens of thick books. I couldn’t possibly read it in one day.
“It’s okay. I’m going to pick out and read only what I need anyway… One day is enough.”
Gourada. It was only because he believed in the witch that he brought this much book.
The party didn’t know anything and looked at Kerry with great admiration.
“Seobang-nim… Can’t we just watch from the sidelines? I’ll be really quiet. Yes?”
“I’m sorry, Natasha. I’ll have to concentrate if I’m going to cover all of this in one day.”
“Then I can’t help it…”
Victoria, who was next to Natasha, also sighed heavily.
From the look on her wistful expression her, it was clear that she had intended to attack Kerry again tonight.
She’s thinking about fucking even in the temple. This naughty woman!
Even if she is punished by the goddess, she has nothing to say.
“Kerry. I have to leave tomorrow morning to find the black tombstone. Please don’t overdo it.”
“Yes. Lina-sama.”
After those words, Kerry was able to be alone.
“Let’s start now.”
Kerry began carrying her book into the White Witch’s bedroom.
*
It was the White Witch’s bedroom. In one corner of the bedroom, old books were piled high.
The White Witch had her eyes shining as she read the book.
“Is that all? Kerry?”
“This is all. There are dozens of books.”
“Haha! That’s cool. It’s hard to find old books that are as well-maintained as this one.
Looks like you found a good library.”
The White Witch was delighted to see the books stacked high, befitting her and her book lover.
I don’t know if it’s a fun novel book, but what’s good about old records or history books. Kerry couldn’t understand.
“Anyway, as I said, I want to know about the legend of Asmodeus.”
“Yes. I know.”
The White Witch had no time to say anything to Kerry. She grabbed an old book and started flipping through it.
The White Witch flipped through the pages with densely written letters every few seconds.
Are you taking any pictures with your eyes?
“…Are you reading all of them now?”
“Is that so?”
“What reads so fast?”
“Kerry. You can become like this if you only read books for a hundred years.”
That’s a specification
It was when Kerry was about to open a book with her witch. The White Witch shakes her head.
“Did I say we have to finish the investigation by tonight?
Being alone here is enough. Kerry. Wouldn’t you rather practice magic?”
“Are you practicing magic?”
“I want to see you use magic skillfully as soon as possible.”
“…”
Kerry didn’t have time to meet the witch for as long as she did today, but she had time to visit the White Witch.
It was to show off the great mage’s pendant she had obtained this time.
Seeing the archmage’s pendant, the witch was visibly delighted.
[With this pendant, I can see you approaching a mature wizard faster. I’m so glad. Kerry.]
Kerry looked at her white witch.
The white witch, a book lover, fell in love with old books and was frighteningly turning her pages her.
‘As expected, the witch is not an ordinary person either.’
The White Witch’s speed reading was unusual.
Even if she has been reading books for a hundred years.
If reading a book without getting tired of it for a hundred years in the first place is not a talent, what is it?
As the White Witch said, Kerry decided to practice magic.
Even if I help out here, I feel like it won’t help much.
I went out of the castle and stood in the field.
The first day she practiced magic, she shot small sparks from her hand.
It was a small fire like a lighter fire, but it was the first magic I used without the help of marbles.
This was the result of practicing in my spare time.
“Fireball.”
Kerry stretched out her hand her in front of her and uttered her spell her.
At the same time, a ball of fire the size of her fist her shot out with a roar.
“Is it this much now?”
This much was possible thanks to the archmage’s pendant.
Originally, it was all about blowing out a little bigger fire than a lighter.
However, after obtaining the Archmage’s pendant, it became possible to make the shape of a sphere right away.
“At this rate, you will soon become a great wizard.”
As expected, talent and temperament are the best. There is even the best teacher called the witch.
Today’s goal is to become a master of fireball magic.
Kerry concentrated on using the perfect fireball spell.
As she closed her eyes, she imaged a ball of fire in her mind. Kerry’s way of using her magic is not standard.
Skip theory. And it was a way to use magic sensibly based only on the minimum foundation the witch had taught me.
Kerry imagined a ball of fire as huge as her body.
It had to be this much to give even a little meaningful blow to the mighty enemies that would come out in the future.
I couldn’t do anything with the flames the size of my fist.
Of course, it didn’t go well from the beginning. Thanks to the archmage’s pendant, it became easier to catch something, but it was not easy.
Kerry continued her magical training late into the night.
Even when she failed, she didn’t give up and she continued to find her own way.
That is, until it was late in the morning.
“Fireball.”
Kerry recites her incantation, raising the mana within her body her.
She operated her mana her according to her blood line her taught by the witch and poured it into her fingertips her.
I put plenty of mana into the fireball to make it big enough as I had imagined.
Kerry ended her concentration and opened her eyes.
In front of Kerry’s eyes, a fireball of a satisfactory size was burning brightly.
“You finally succeeded.”
Kerry fired a fireball into the sky.
Because she couldn’t burn the witch-sama’s fields.
For the first time, she succeeded in full magic without the power of marbles.
It was one step closer to becoming an archmage.
There was no new feeling. Because I realized that I would reach this level someday.
Just then, a happy voice came from behind.
“Kerry! She has finally perfected the fire ball magic.”
“Yes. Witch.”
“You did well! How wonderful!”
I see the happy white witch touching her hand her. She says she likes the witch more than Kerry.
Kerry looked at the White Witch.
The fact that the White Witch was here meant that her witch-sama had also finished her work her.
“Rather than that, witch, have you read all of them already?”
“So it is.”
“Five. As expected, the legendary White Witch.”
“Whoops. This is no big deal to her mother-in-law her. Rather than that, she wants to go inside and talk. I have quite a few stories to tell.”
The White Witch was very energetic.
She seemed proud that she had read so many books in one night.
Kerry and the White Witch sat across from each other at the table and talked.
Asmodeus became the first immortal king to gain divine power.
The White Witch said that Asmodeus might still be alive.
“Is the person from the legend still alive?”
“It’s not an exact fact yet, it’s the original woman’s guess.”
“…”
“Isn’t there anything to be surprised about?
If Asmodeus really became an immortal king, as the legend says, it’s no wonder he’s still alive.”
“Why do you guess so?”
“Because of the repeated records in the ancient ruins.”
“If it’s an ancient ruin… The place where you said there might be a clue to unlocking the witch?”
“Okay. For some reason, Asmodeus seems to be wandering around ancient ruins.
And that is for a very long time, over the last few hundred years.”
Suddenly, the story in the legend is true.
Something felt strange. Although there was another legendary culprit in front of him.
“Records are repeated that a man described as similar in appearance to Asmodeus came to the ruins.
It has been repeated over hundreds of years.”
“…”
“As I said before, this is just my guess.
But for some reason, the original woman has an intuition that Asmodeus is alive.”
‘If this is true, I… ‘
The White Witch continued with her slightly dreamy eyes.
“In the world, immortality really did exist. The original girl’s dream was not in vain.”
But the White Witch sees her Kerry and shakes her head.
As long as Kerry stayed by her side of her, it was okay to burn with fire.
After the story, the white witch stared at Kerry.
She said as if she wanted to be praised for her hard work for her.
Kerry stroked her white witch’s hair.
“You worked hard. Witch.”
The witch smiled pleasantly, then regained her senses and straightened up.
“Don’t treat her mother like a child! Kerry!”
She was also a disingenuous witch.
The white witch, who had been huffing up, pursed her lips as if she still had a story to tell.
