"...Capturing Dragon Monk?"
Annan couldn't help repeating once again when she heard this profession that didn't match her image at all.
Wait a minute, there are a lot of slots, I don’t know where to start to vomit...
Annan asked Kafni tentatively, "This sounds a bit like an advanced profession for a monk..."
"Indeed."
Bishop Darryl replied to Annan.
Although he was also surprised for a moment, he was the first to react.
Faced with Cafney's astonishing words, the old bishop was taken aback.
"Dragon Monk... This is actually an ancient profession."
He explained to Annan: "In other words, all 'monks' are ancient occupations, at least from the last century.
"Monk is a common name among the people. Its full name is actually 'Atheran Ascetic'. They build monasteries all over the empire, and welcome people of any faith to join as 'Ascetic'.
"They are not the personal arms of a righteous god. But monks must always have their own beliefs, which is the 'Oath of the Foundation'. The foundation can be chosen from anything, such as the teachings of righteous gods or false gods, such as It is said that the only requirement for belief in a certain philosophy, or even loyalty, filial piety, love, and hatred, is that the foundation must be solid and cannot be shaken in the future.
"Once the foundations of the Ascetics are shaken, the supernatural abilities brought about by their monk profession are immediately lost. A holy baptism is required to rebuild their foundations..."
"In other words, does the monk have an additional 'Supreme Curse'?"
Annan asked.
Cafney replied softly, "Yes.
"And my foundation is... the obsession to obtain and protect the kingdom."
She calmly uttered her foundation oath to the others.
Annan suddenly realized.
Why can Kafni speak out her secret...
Why did Kafni choose the kingdom as her foundation
Because she has no room to retreat.
As the saying goes, if you have too much debt, you don’t have to worry about it. Kafni's curse must be completed, otherwise she will permanently lose a large part of her transcendent ability. The difficulty of usurping the throne is much more difficult than normal inheritance.
In other words, she must inherit the throne.
Then this basis belongs to the "partial responsibility".
... However, the foundation is different from the curse after all, it can be freely chosen. If you are rational, you should choose the most stable foundation...
Annan couldn't help but take another look at Cafney.
Just for this determination to never turn back...
He is now somewhat interested in this child.
"If you hadn't been so persistent, you probably wouldn't have been able to advance to become a dragon monk."
Bishop Darryl lamented: "This profession is not easy...
"The name 'Capturing Dragon Monk' is actually a translation.
"Its proper name, which I cannot pronounce here, is Draconic 'Wrestler of the Dragon'.
"Monks are similar to priests, they can get extra bonuses from perception... That is to say, they often have strong physical strength. But this strength does not come from hard training like a swordsman, but rather The projection of psychic powers in the physical world.
"Depending on the power of the monk's foundation, the blessings they get will also be subtly different. Only monks whose foundation is 'real, stable, and accessible material desire' will use all their spiritual power It’s all transferred to power... thus gaining unbelievable strange power that can even easily hurt oneself. Only monks who are as powerful as monsters can advance to become a dragon-capturing monk.”
"… Well."
Annan listened to what Bishop Darryl said for a long time, and nodded thoughtfully.
In other words, the professional characteristics of a monk is to add [Perception] to [Strength], [Agility], [Physique]... or even [Will] in proportion
And according to different oaths, the proportion of attributes assigned is also different. Only an oath like Kafni's will add all perceptions to power...
This is a real full power point.
According to the normal development of melee professions, when they level up, every few levels will also increase other attributes besides the main attribute of strength and body agility, so as to maintain a balanced ability.
But Cafney is different.
Before she advances, she might injure herself...
After all, the growth of perception attributes is much easier than strength.
"And once they advance to the Dragon Monk, they will get the characteristic of [Golden Blood], which will completely solidify their bodies. Their bones and muscles will become soft and tough, and no matter what kind of exercise they do, their bodies will not change.
"And because of this, they have abandoned the traditional fighting skills of monks. Because they will not be injured by their own strange power only when they trip and grapple the enemy... The price is that they cannot wear any armor and cannot use absolute magic from now on. Most weapons. Even…”
Having said that, the old bishop's complexion was a bit complicated.
He looked at Kafni, paused before continuing: "Even in order to ensure the transmission of power, it is necessary to maintain close contact with the target's body. In fact, the few dragon monks I have seen are all bare-chested and strong." Man. This is also the first time I have seen a dragon-capturing monk like His Royal Highness Kafni."
"... I don't wear any armor. But this kind of fabric doesn't affect my strength."
Kafni stretched out her arms like a show.
Under the translucent silk sleeves that were as thin as a veil, there were slender white arms that were not covered by any clothes.
Under her thick long skirt, her legs were also wrapped in black silk clothing.
Just standing there, she felt unusually balanced and stable. Annan had no doubts that it would be impossible for her to push Kafni with all her strength, but if Kafni wanted to, she could instantly lift herself up and throw herself to the ground... She could even completely fix herself on the ground.
"...and, more often than not, I use my shadow."
Kafni stared closely at Annan, and said softly: "I can temporarily distribute the power to them, and let them grab multiple enemies instead of me...or protect others."
As she spoke, her right hand gently grabbed Annan's sleeve again.
It's just that, Annan has a feeling that she might be thrown out by her at any time...
... Why, why are you looking at me
Annan felt very strongly that Kafni would look at him before she could say a few words, staring at her intently.
If it was an ordinary person, I'm afraid they would have fled timidly under the majestic gaze full of spiritual power.
Fortunately, the power of the reverse inscription is powerful.
Only then did Annan stare back confidently: "So...?"
"So I will protect you."
Cafney said softly.
She stroked her chest with her left hand, stared intently at Annan, and made a hoarse and soft voice:
"I'm strong...I can protect you."
Looking at Cafney's appearance, Albert's eyes gradually became a little bit wrong.
He looked at Annan, then at Kafni.
The expression is a bit complicated.
