In order to correct Gallo's misunderstanding, the old bishop had no choice but to educate him about the Witch Sect seriously.
This sect has a very long history. It can be traced back to the era of the ancient gods' melee. What they believe in is not gods or nature, but the founder of the sect, the demigod Tesna known as the "Witch of Destiny".
No one knows what profession this Witch of Destiny was in the first place. She was already a witch when she was known, so she was also called the 'Ancestor Witch' and 'Original Witch'.
Tishna is mysterious and powerful. It is said that she once obtained part of the authority of "fate". She can see through a person's future destiny and pluck the string of his destiny. It can be said that she is only one step away from becoming a god.
The power of fate is also the most mysterious and special one among many powers. There is no "God of Destiny" in the world today, which means that no god has held the power in this field so far.
Therefore, many people think that the power of fate is held in the hands of the Creator, or simply destroyed, so that no one can touch it. It seems that only this witch of fate is lucky enough to glimpse its mystery.
It's a pity that she fell in the melee of the gods back then. No one knows who did it, and they don't know the role played by the Witch Sect in that melee. Perhaps, like other small sects, they struggled in the aftermath of the melee. lingering and panting.
But some people think that she has not completely fallen, but exists in a special way, can continue to shelter the witches who believe in her, and save their fate, so this small sect can survive to this day.
As for today's Witch Sect, it doesn't look like a sect, but more like a secret society. They have no public churches, and they don't know how to preach. They are more low-key than the Miya Sect, and more secretive than a cult.
And their members are also some hard-fated women, fallen women who have fallen into the dust, poor girls who are trapped in a whole world, and they joined the sect after being rescued by other witches.
Of course, this kind of organization can't do anything earth-shattering and bad. Generally, you can hear about them, that is, they go to be mistresses, destroying other people's marriage contracts and happiness. kind of degree.
The world's impression of witches is to stay at the level of beauty, affection, openness, and slutty.
However, the old bishop has his own views on this:
"They don't actually want to be mistresses, they just succumb to the so-called 'fate'..."
"After they join the sect, if they pray sincerely, they will receive the revelation from the witch of fate, guiding them to find the so-called 'happiness', that is, to marry a good family and spend the rest of their lives in peace. It is already the greatest happiness.”
"This kind of guidance is generally reliable. Some witches really found 'happiness' and died well, but the guidance itself does not consider the issue of timeliness, so sometimes it is found, and the result is that other people's children can be soy sauce ... "
Lilian Luo, who was at the side, listened, and got into Jia Luo's arms, rubbing against him non-stop, not knowing what she wanted to express...
And Gallo played with her twin ponytails casually, and asked curiously:
"Didn't you say before that this witch sect is very mysterious and unknown? But how do you know them so well?"
"Ahem!"
The old bishop quickly coughed twice, and argued:
"Naturally, it's because I'm very knowledgeable."
Gallo believed it, because the old bishop never lied.
So he asked again:
"Then why would such a sect assassinate the special envoy? Could there be their 'happiness' there?"
Even the knowledgeable old bishop can't answer this question...
In the end, Gallo asked and answered for himself:
"Ah! By the way, is it because of this?"
As he spoke, he took out the special hairpin from his sleeve.
Lilian Luo was immediately attracted by it, stared at the hairpin eagerly, and sighed in a low voice:
"so beautiful... "
As he spoke, he looked at Jia Luo eagerly, as if he wanted it very much.
But Gallo handed the hairpin to the old bishop, and comforted him again:
"This style is too mature for you."
"You are more suitable for bows, cat ear hairpins and so on. I will take you to the street to buy them when I have time later."
Lilian Luo was really easy to coax, so she rubbed Jia Luo's chin happily.
But the old bishop took the hairpin and looked at it carefully for a long time, but he couldn't see why.
"Should I sell it?"
Gallo suggested.
The old bishop shook his head and advised:
"The things that will be kept by the special envoy must have some origins. They are very hot and difficult to sell."
"Like this kind of precious item with unknown origin and unknown use, it is better to put it..."
It didn't take him to finish the sentence, Jia Luo took back his intention, hurriedly walked under the statue of the goddess, put the hairpin on it, and prayed devoutly:
"Master Miya, I found you a beautiful hairpin, you will definitely like it, right?"
He waited happily for the goddess' response and gift, and was still wondering what kind of artifact the goddess would give him this time
Preferably Gaia memory, transformation belt or something...
Gallo longed for this in his heart.
However, he prayed for a long time, but the goddess didn't respond, and the hairpin was still there.
Instead, the small wooden hammer in his sleeve flew out by itself and hit him on the head.
"Ai yo ai yo!"
It seems that the goddess is not only unhappy, but also a little angry
Gallo quickly took back the hairpin, and returned to the old bishop with a sad face.
As a result, as soon as he got close to the old bishop, the sea urchin necklace on his neck also flew up by itself, hitting the old bishop's head too.
"ah!!!"
"Lord Miya calm down, I won't dare again in the future!"
The old bishop performed a magic spell to stop the bleeding, and while pleading guilty, he was still muttering in his heart:
Why even I will be punished
In short, this time the garbage-for-artifact project is declared bankrupt...
"Then what should we do with this thing? Give it to Daidai?"
As Gallo said, he couldn't help but think about Misseran's hairpin...
emmmmm, it doesn't seem to match well? Because her hair is silver, it is not very distinguishable from this white hairpin...
So, Lieutenant Undini
Gallo thought about it again, but still shook his head.
Wentini has always been wearing a sheriff's uniform, heroic, wearing flowers, neither fish nor fowl.
As for Lilian Luo, as I said before, it is not suitable for this style of accessories.
"Amiya?"
Gallo's eyes could not help but fell on the little donkey who was still knitting a sweater beside him.
Amiya heard her master calling her, and looked up.
"Come, come, I will send you a flower."
As Gallo said, he handed out the hairpin.
Amiya carefully twirled the hairpin with two fingers, held it in front of her for a closer look, her eyes were flickering, she didn't know what she was thinking.
Probably happy
The old bishop has been watching silently, without saying a word, and did not stop Gallo's seemingly reckless behavior.
Unsurprisingly, this hairpin should be an important item of the Witch Sect, and it may be related to the mysterious "fate"...
And he doesn't know much about 'fate', he only knows that it is a very mysterious thing. If he encounters it, the best way to deal with it is to follow his heart and let nature take its course.
This is the method that person taught him back then, which is somewhat similar to the goddess' teachings
I just don't know if Gallo's actions are considered natural...
The old bishop didn't think too much, and asked another detail:
"Oh, by the way, you were attacked by a demigod before?"
"Yeah, it's still quite powerful. It almost hurt me."
Gallo said seriously, and made a 'little' distance between his thumb and index finger.
"But it wasn't the attack launched by the demigod himself, so I still held on."
The old bishop thought for a while, then suddenly remembered something, and quickly reminded:
"So do you feel like you've been marked?"
Logically speaking, this kind of blow given by a demigod to others is often not so simple. Usually, it will be accompanied by a mark or imprint of the previous time, so that it can be traced afterwards and settled after the fall.
Such marks are often very subtle, difficult to detect, and difficult to get rid of at the same time.
And once it is targeted by a demigod, it is definitely not a good thing, not to mention, this time it is likely to be two...
After all, it was the first time for Gallo to face a demigod-level enemy, so naturally he didn't realize this.
But Lilian Luo said very firmly:
"Is there no other smell on Gallo?"
"I didn't notice any magic marks or anything."
The old bishop breathed a sigh of relief temporarily, and speculated:
"Failed to apply the mark? Or were they negligent?"
But Gallo's reaction was very strange. He actually showed a regretful expression, and muttered in a low voice:
"pity... "
He was not the only one who felt pity. At the same time, the demigod mage Seiler and the demigod warrior Kantia, who were living far away in the imperial city, also felt pity.
"The imprint disappeared... No, it failed to activate."
"But my well-behaved great-grandson died, why?"
"A mere witch, how could she resist my 'finger of death'?"
This demigod mage was a thin old man with gray hair and beard, who was full of puzzlement and kept muttering in a low voice.
On the side, his best friend Cantia replied:
"Maybe it was the sacrifice of cannon fodder that tricked the two little guys out of their hole cards in advance, and then beat the killer; maybe those witches found a powerful ally?"
"But the two little guys are not that stupid yet, so I'm more inclined to the latter..."
"To be able to resist the offensive of you and me, you must also be a demigod, otherwise you will never be able to survive under the suppression of personality..."
"Even a demigod can't resist the charm of a witch? This makes me a little interested..."
Although the same old, but strong demigod warrior said vigorously.
