The Sword and The Shadow

Chapter 201: Erin's wish

Views:

The priest came as promised early the next morning, and he worked for seven hours before completely completing his magic. By the time he finished all this, his forehead was already covered with a thin layer of sweat, and his face even looked a little pale. It can be seen that bone renewal is very difficult even for high-level priests.

Seeing such a scene, Regnar's heart was cast into another shadow. Even if it was so difficult to recover from the injury a month or two ago, what about the scars on Erin's face that were more than ten years ago? But no matter how difficult it was, Regnar still did not waver in his determination to help Irene. A few years ago, she brought a ray of light to his dark life, and now, he must give her a life that is no different from ordinary people. This is a promise, a love, and a reward.

Apparently Erin didn't think that much. After the priest completed the treatment, she stared blankly at her white, slender and very healthy right hand, and then her body began to tremble slightly.

"It's true." Regnar looked at Irene and said softly: "Your hand has recovered. Soon, I will also find a way to restore your appearance. From that day on, there will be no more People look at you strangely. Erin, I promise you."

It took Eileen a long time to react. She wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then murmured: "That's enough, this... is enough."

Although she didn't show it on weekdays, Eileen was still very painful about losing three fingers. There is no need to talk about the unsightly thing. In addition, losing three fingers also brought her a lot of inconvenience. For example, she can't hold a knife well when eating, and she can't hold many utensils firmly when cleaning. It can be said that the loss of three fingers caused her no less trouble than the scars on her face.

Although Regnar said before that he would help Irene, Irene always thought that these were Regnar's words to comfort her. After all, she has been working in a tavern, has never seen the outside world, and does not know much about many things in this world. She knew that wounds could be healed, but she had never heard that broken finger bones could also be healed. So she never had any hope.

But now, Regnar has actually fulfilled what he said, so Irene's current mood can no longer be described as joy and excitement.

"Thank you, Brother Regnar!" Irene was so excited that she jumped directly into Regnar's arms and gave Regnar a long-lasting hug.

"Hmm... Although her figure is a bit worse than Annie's, she is definitely pretty curvy!" Regnar thought to himself in a daze, and even said it out accidentally.

"Pah!" Vera slapped Regna on the back of the head: "What did you say, you brat?"

"You will bully me." Regnar muttered, rubbing the back of his head.

"Hmph, I think it's you who bullies Irene. You just see that Irene is gentle and you use your strength to do it. Do you dare to try this to Annie?" Vera turned to Irene and said: "Don't be afraid, Irene. If this kid bullies you again, tell me, sister, take care of him!"

At this time, Irene had already blushed because of Regnar's words. She stepped aside and rubbed the corner of her clothes a little shyly. When she saw her intact right hand, her eyes flashed again. It was filled with infinite tenderness and touching feeling.

"Okay, in that case, we should pay the bill." Regnar was relieved when he saw that Irene's fingers could move freely.

"If it weren't for my sister's shrewdness, how could you have so much money?" Vera said proudly. Although it was three thousand gold coins, there was no look of distress in her eyes when she handed it to the priest. Instead, there was a bit of excitement. . At this moment, Vera's true nature as a super shopaholic was revealed. Shopaholics do not necessarily enjoy the rewards of buying things. Sometimes, what they enjoy more is the pleasure of spending money.

"Thank you for your help. Please tell me your name. I will always keep it in my heart with gratitude." Regnar said sincerely. He could see that the priest was helping Irene treat her hand bones today. It was out of good intentions, because the materials he used to perform the magic today were worth more than two thousand gold coins. Coupled with the time spent running back and forth and the time spent performing the magic, the priest basically made nothing from this trip.

"Martin." The priest smiled friendly: "But instead of remembering this name, I hope you can remember the light and warmth that Pelor brings to you. All my strength comes from the gift of Pelor."

"Thank you, thank you Pero, thank you for the light." Regnar bowed slightly and saluted.

"Then, my mission is completed. Goodbye." Martin returned the salute and then prepared to turn around and leave.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Martin." Eileen stopped Martin.

"Oh? Does this young lady have anything else to do?" Martin asked.

"I..." Eileen hesitated, and finally plucked up the courage to ask: "I am very grateful to you and Pelor for helping me. I don't know... I wonder if I have a chance to become a true believer of Pelor?"

"Eileen, are you sure?" Regnar asked. It may be related to his past life experiences, but Regnar himself does not have any beliefs. And there are many people like him who do not believe in any gods, such as Kordak and Annelotte, who do not believe in any gods. Vera, on the other hand, can only be regarded as a pseudo-believer of the forest goddess Alona - she will only mention this name on rare occasions and say something like the goddess's blessing. As for daily prayers and the like, don't expect this. Women do.

But Irene was different. Regnar knew that she had followed her adoptive mother to believe in Pelor very early on. If she becomes a true believer, she will undoubtedly be much more pious than someone like Vera. Regarding issues of faith, Regner had an indifferent attitude. Everyone has their own freedom anyway. And the reason why he is asking now is because he is afraid that Irene will make a temporary decision because of her emotions.

"Yes." Erin nodded seriously: "I also hope that I can help and heal others like Mr. Martin, and I also want to become a useful person. I have had this wish a long time ago , now I don’t want to miss this opportunity.”

Regnar looked at Eileen silently, and then nodded: "Since you have thought about it, I have no objection. What do you think, Mr. Martin?"

"Being able to have such kind and beautiful wishes proves that you are a kind person." Martin looked at Eileen with a smile: "God will not reject the wishes of any kind person, and I will not refuse. God's will."

"So you agree?" Eileen asked happily.

"Yes." Martin nodded: "But it's too late today. Please come to the Holy Light's Hope Chapel with your friends tomorrow to find me. Then I will be responsible for guiding you to officially become a believer in Pelor."

"Great, thank you, Mr. Martin!" Eileen nodded vigorously.

"Okay, it's getting late, it's time for me to go back." Martin said with a smile.

"Please walk slowly, we will visit you at Holy Light's Hope Chapel tomorrow morning." Regnar saw Martin off. When he came back, he looked at Irene's anxious look and couldn't help but feel a little funny: "What should I do? Is it something wrong?"

"I..." Eileen said with some guilt: "Is this too willful of me?"

"How could it be? If a person like you, Eileen, became a priest, he would definitely be a good person who could save lives and help the wounded. This is a good thing!" Vera said.

"Sister Vera is right." Regnar walked to Eileen and said, "Irene, just like Mr. Martin said, you have the idea of helping others, which proves that you are a kind person. And this It is also the most precious thing in your body, and I am very happy that you have kept it until now. So, as long as you really think about it, there is nothing to hesitate about. You did the right thing, and I am also very happy for you. can make such a decision.”

"Really?" Erin asked carefully.

Regnar gently touched Irene's head, then smiled and said, "Really!"

"Okay, okay, if you two want to show off your affection, don't show it here. I'll get angry if I look at it." Vera joked. She could see Irene's feelings for Regnar to some extent, so Determined to bring them together.

As for Annelotte, she is Vera's already appointed sister-in-law. Anyway, this world does not stipulate that a man can only have one wife, so the more things like sisters-in-law, the better, just come! She liked the three girls around Regnar very much, and it would be best if Regnar could take Annelotte, Inelise, and Irene into his arms. When the time comes, seeing her little brother having such an enviable pink army, she will feel bright in her face.

Oh, of course, that doesn't mean Vera is an advocate of polygamy. Regnar is Regnar. To be honest, he has no direct relationship with Vera, so Vera can support it. But do you dare to let Kordak try talking to one more woman? ! Will Vera not break the legs of the guy who took advantage of the leopard's guts? Moreover, three of his legs were broken. Let’s see if he dares to touch Huahua’s intestines again!

Irene blushed again because of Vera's teasing smile.

"Sister Vera, why are you so angry?" Regnar was quite kind-hearted. He said nonchalantly, "The boss is inside. You can show off if you want, and no one will stop you."

"Hey! Did Rego beat you silly? You kid still dares to talk back? See, sister, I won't deal with you. Erin, Yi Ni, come with me!" Vera said and pounced on her.

Inelise, who had been silent all the time, watched the three of them making a fuss with a smile, but secretly swore in her heart: Sister Irene has also found her place, and I have to work harder!
