Because Pelor is a god who symbolizes the sun, light and kindness, most poor people will talk about Pelor when they face difficulties, hoping that he will listen to their prayers. Of course, this does not mean that these people are followers of Pelor. They just know that there is such a god and will say a few words when they are in trouble.
But precisely because Perro has such a huge public base, his church has become the largest church in the Hawke Empire. This church is known as the Order of Tomorrow. Its churches have spread all over the Hawke Empire, and the number of its believers has reached one million.
These men were true believers, and each of them, like Martin, had a deep knowledge of their god and prayed to their god every night at sunrise every morning.
Although most of the time prayers cannot be answered by God, on occasion, God will still give a trace of His attention to a certain believer.
For example, two days ago, Martin received God's instruction. The content of the instruction was not clear, but Martin still heard that Pero asked him to help someone with a generous and enthusiastic attitude. Immediately afterwards, Martin was officially invited by the Hawke Empire Competition to treat a seriously injured contestant. Then, Martin realized that this might be the person God asked him to help.
And it turns out that his guess was not wrong, because after he accepted Erin's plea last night. During this morning's prayer, Perot responded to him again. He expressed his satisfaction with Martin's approach, and in return, Perot gave Martin a certain amount of divine grace as a reward. These blessings also made Martin's strength improve slightly. Although the magnitude was not large, it was enough to make him happy.
Because the strength of a priest almost entirely depends on the favor of the god he believes in. If a priest can gain the favor of the god, then theoretically he can reach the high-level realm in minutes.
Therefore, unlike professions such as mage warriors, what determines the strength of a priest is not his talent, but the degree of God's favor for the priest. Although this incident did not allow Martin to receive too many divine rewards, Perot unexpectedly expressed his satisfaction to himself.
To a certain extent, this is even more precious than the direct reward of divine grace. This shows that God has turned his attention to himself, even if it is only a small amount, this is very precious to a devout believer.
With God's affirmation, Martin became more determined to help Irene. He decided that as long as Pelor affirmed Irene, he would take the initiative to accept Irene as his disciple.
At about nine o'clock in the morning, Regnar took Irene and Inelise to the Holy Light's Hope Chapel. Because Kordak's injury has not yet healed, Vera chose to stay and take care of him.
"Hello, we are here to visit Mr. Martin. I don't know where to find him?" Regnar found an attendant who was cleaning the church and asked. He knew that in a cathedral like the Holy Light's Hope Chapel, apart from the priest, There are also many followers dedicated to serving them.
They are also believers of Pelor, but because they have never been favored by God or for some other reasons, they can only work hard as second-line personnel. However, it is said that even the welfare benefits of second-line personnel are quite good. Because the Order of Tomorrow also has a good relationship with the Hawke Empire's royal family, it is said that the teacher of the second prince of the Hawke Empire is also a follower of Pelor, but he is not a priest, but a paladin.
"Are you Mr. Lei?" the attendant asked.
"Yes."
"Mr. Martin gave instructions this morning. If you come to visit, let us take you directly to his residence. Please come with me." The entourage put down what he was doing and led Regna into the back garden.
…
"Young man, you came very early." Martin said when he saw Regna smiling.
"You are an elder, so of course I won't keep you waiting." Regnar also smiled.
"Thank you for your hard work. May the glory of Pero be with you." Martin said to the waiter.
The waiter bowed slightly, then turned around and left quietly.
"Okay, if you have any gossip, let's talk about it after finishing things. Son, are you ready?" Martin did not delay.
"Yes, Mr. Martin." Eileen nodded timidly.
"Then let's get started. Follow me." Martin took out some spell-casting materials from the desk drawer and left with Regna.
They came to an independent prayer room. In the center of the prayer room was an exquisite statue that was about the same height as a normal person. If Regner guessed correctly, it should be Pero's statue.
"Kneel before God, close your eyes, and clasp your hands." The gentleness on Martin's face gradually faded, replaced by solemnity and solemnity.
Erin slowly knelt down. Fortunately, there was a cushion in front of the statue, which made her knees less uncomfortable.
"Boy, little girl, please step back." Martin said to Regnar and Inelis: "Please stay quiet for a while. No matter what happens, don't make too much noise, let alone make any noise. .”
"We will." Regnar nodded, and then took Inelise to find a chair and sit down.
"Will Sister Erin become a priest?" Enelise asked quietly.
"Maybe, I'm not sure." Regnar replied: "But I think this may be an opportunity for her."
"Well?"
"She has always been a very kind person, and she has always hoped that she can become a person who is useful to others and can help others." Regnar looked at Eileen and said softly: "But because of her life experience, Although she has always had the intention, she has always been unable to do so, but I think today may bring some changes to her."
"O gracious and great sun god, please listen to the request of your devout believers. Today another noble and kind soul feels your brilliance. May your light guide her and illuminate her bumpy and confused future. road." Martin said respectfully after chanting a few spells.
As the pastor's words fell, two faint golden lights shot out from the eyes of the statue. They converged on Irene's head, illuminating her original silver hair as brightly as gold. Then, the light returned Spread out from the hair to all sides, covering the prayer room with a light golden color.
Immediately afterwards, a strong pressure radiated from the statue, and Regnar felt very uncomfortable even from a distance of four or five meters. This feeling has never happened before. Even when Regnar faced Clayton, he had never felt such pressure. That is not oppression caused by the gap in strength at all, but by biological level! Yes, gods and mortals are completely different levels of living beings, just like the difference between humans and ants.
"Eileen!" Regnar stood up and called softly. He felt uncomfortable while staying here. Regnar couldn't imagine how Irene would feel under those two lights.
"Brother Regnar!" At this time, it was Inelis who held Regnar in her arms and said softly, "Mr. Martin said not to disturb them."
Regnar turned his head and looked at Inelise. He found that the little girl's face was still as normal. Even under the golden light, Inelis's face became more rosy and healthier than before.
"Aren't you feeling uncomfortable, Yi Ni?" Regnar asked in surprise.
"No, this light is very comfortable." Inelis shook her head and said.
"Pero's light has different effects on different people. A kind-hearted little girl like Ini who has never harmed other lives will become more energetic under its irradiation, while someone like you with hands stained with A guy full of blood and life will naturally feel discomfort, which is normal. Don’t worry, if Eileen is as kind as you said, then this light will definitely be beneficial and harmless to her. " Garona explained in Regnar's mind. Regnar could tell that Garona's voice was a little weak. It seemed that she was not having a very good time under the light.
"Teacher, can you still hold on?" Regnar asked.
"It's a joke. I am also a famous Saint Realm powerhouse back then. Although I am not as good as those superior guys, it would be too naive to make me surrender with just a ray of light." Garona said proudly. said.
"That's good, let's just hold on here. I want to keep an eye on Irene here. I'm afraid something might happen to her."
"As you wish." Garona said nonchalantly.
But just as Garona finished speaking, an unparalleled willpower emanated from the statue. Its light gradually became stronger, and from the beginning his eyes glowed to his whole body radiating a strong light. The light was so dazzling that Regnar could not open his eyes under the illumination of this light.
On the other hand, Enelise seemed not to have felt the strong light at all. She just sat there quietly watching Martin pray, and even unconsciously had a smile on her lips.
Regnar's whole body trembled slightly, and the pressure even made it difficult for him to breathe. His body felt a needle-like pain under the bath of light. But even so, he still didn't choose to leave, he just gritted his teeth and persisted silently. Garona didn't seem to care about the pain and never made any sound.
"Hmph!" A sneer full of joking rang out from every corner of the room. His voice was not loud, but it carried an irresistible majesty.
Immediately afterwards, the light in the room gradually faded, and Regnar suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. He lay on the chair and panted violently, as if he had experienced strenuous exercise for a long time. In fact, he was only illuminated by this light for two minutes.
"This self-righteous fool!" Garona seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief as she cursed bitterly.
Regnar looked up and saw that the light did not dissipate, but completely focused on Irene.
At this time, Martin looked at Irene, who was shrouded in golden light, and murmured: "God... God... God's will has come..."
