"Tch, it's just a part of Pero's consciousness. These magic sticks are so excited." Garona said with some disdain.
"Separate consciousness?" Regnar was stunned.
"Of course, there are millions of followers of high-level gods like Pelor. If everyone prays once a day, can Pelor be busy if he only maintains one consciousness?" Garona said: "So, In addition to a main consciousness, each god will also have many sub-consciousnesses, which will help the god handle the prayers of believers. Of course, most prayers will still be ignored, and only believers who are favored by the gods can cause sub-consciousness. Notice."
"So that's it..." Regnar suddenly realized, and then he was stunned again: "Teacher, how did you know?"
"Hmph, what kind of person is your teacher?!" Garona said proudly: "Although I am still far away from becoming a god, I do know a little bit about the bad things among the gods. What does it mean to know such a little thing?"
"Teacher..." Regnar said cautiously: "It seems from your tone that you are not... um... not very welcoming to those gods..."
"See you later?" Garona sneered: "Most of them were just mortals in the past. They just happened to gain huge power and became gods by various chances and coincidences. After becoming gods, these guys began to change. You have to become self-righteous and think that you are the only real master in the world, and all things in the world are just ant-like existences. How can you please me, an idiot like this who is the only one in the world?"
"..." Regnar was speechless. Indeed, although he had never seen Garona's demeanor back then, it could be seen from just a few words in the legend that Garona must have been a powerful person with a fierce reputation at that time. Naturally, It is not difficult to guess what a proud person she is. If you want to make her bow to others, it would be easier to kill her.
"Just now, just now, Napero deliberately felt sorry for you." Garona continued.
"Huh?" Regnar was stunned again.
"Didn't you notice?" Garona said with a hint of disdain: "The light is also shining on you now, do you feel any discomfort?"
"Teacher, you said I just realized that it seems to be gone." Regnar said in surprise.
"That's it." Garona said: "Napero just deliberately brought the light with his own power. This power will not cause any harm to Irene, Inelise and Martin present. But you said Say, who was he targeting just now?"
"Damn it!" Regnar suddenly understood as he recalled the pain he had just experienced and the joking sneer. It turns out that Napero was deliberately torturing himself just now. No wonder he felt so uncomfortable!
It seemed that Garona was right. From Pero's point of view, mortals like him were really the ones to be kneaded at will. Although he, Regnar, did not have the arrogance of peerless strong men like Garona, he still considered himself to have some dignity. Now that he found himself being teased, even if the person teasing him was a god, he couldn't help but get furious. If it weren't for the fact that Irene was so determined, Regnar would have pulled her and left directly without saying anything.
Now, Irene slowly put down her hands, and then the half-elf girl raised her head, opened her eyes, and stared into the eyes of the statue. If anyone observes carefully, they will find that Irene's pupils have changed from silver-gray to golden yellow.
Beside her, Martin was murmuring words of praise for Pero with a pious and almost fanatical expression. Those words were so disgusting that Regner couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.
He watched for a long time, and finally found that Martin seemed to have nothing to do with the current ceremony, so he walked to the priest and asked tentatively: "Mr. Martin?"
"Huh?" Martin turned to look at Regna.
"Are you still presiding over the ceremony?" Regnar asked cautiously.
"No, since Pelor's will has come, there is no need for me to be busy here." Martin said: "But as his most devout servant, I must praise his kindness and greatness at this time."
Regnar saw the magic stick turning his head and was about to enter that shaky state again, and hurriedly said: "What about Irene? How is Irene?"
"Don't worry." Martin looked at Eileen with a loving look: "The child is now bathing in the sacred light of Pelor. I can guarantee that after this ceremony, she will become an outstanding child. 's pastor."
"Really?" Regnar asked in surprise. He guessed from Martin's expression that this ceremony seemed a little different from the past, but he didn't expect Martin to say that she would directly become a priest. , and also an excellent pastor.
"Of course." Martin smiled: "Okay, just wait calmly and the child will be fine."
…
Although she was still in such a prayer room, Irene clearly felt the difference in the space she was in, because she not only saw Regna and Martin talking, but also saw "herself" still kneeling there. He raised his head and looked at the statue. She vaguely guessed that she might be in a state of soul-body separation.
In fact, her soul is now in the space temporarily created by Pero. It has a certain connection with the real world, but without his permission, Irene cannot leave this world at all, let alone face it in this world. any real-world impact.
"Give me a reason to allow you to become my believer." A voice rang in this strange space.
Different from what Regnar heard, although this voice was full of majesty, it was also somewhat friendly and gentle. To Eileen, this sound seemed to come from this space. In fact, it is not wrong to say that Pelor's will constructed this space, and this space also symbolized Pelor's will to a certain extent. .
"I..." Erin was extremely nervous at this time. She was usually just a timid and kind-hearted girl, but now she suddenly faced the most mysterious and powerful force in the world. Even just a ray of consciousness was enough. She was frightened.
So, Erin gave an answer that made Martin collapse when he heard it: "I don't know either..."
"Oh?" The voice sounded a bit surprised. He didn't expect that he would get such a reply when he deigned to come to the world. Perro thought for a while, and then asked: "So, why do you want to choose me to be your faith?"
"Because... because you and your priest healed my hand." Irene could only say something: "So, I think you are a kind god, and I also want to help others like Lord Martin, at least... Help the people around me. So, I hope to become your believer, and I hope to use your power to realize my wishes."
"Do you know the teachings of my followers?" Pero then asked.
"I don't know..." Eileen replied with some embarrassment: "But I want to help others, I want to be a useful person to others."
"Kindness and help are my teachings. If you have such thoughts, it is considered to be in line with my teachings." Pero was not angry at Eileen's answer.
"So you agree?" Eileen said happily. Through this few words, she discovered that this god was not as majestic and aloof as she had imagined. On the contrary, his words made people feel like a kind and kind elder. , with a sense of intimacy. Therefore, Erin slowly became more casual when speaking.
"..." Pero did not speak this time. Instead, the space began to vibrate slightly.
"Ah, I shouldn't be disrespectful to you. God, please forgive poor Irene!" Irene thought that the vibration in the space was due to Pero being angry. She thought with some fear in her heart, but because she was too scared, she did not Can tell.
But then, a ray of light suddenly shot out from the statue. It did not shine directly on the surface of Irene's body like the previous light, but directly entered her body through Irene's forehead.
Immediately afterwards, strands of golden threads emanated from Irene's body. They seemed to be pieced together at random, and then formed a network structure like cracked earth. And at a certain junction point of this network structure, there is a light point shining.
This is the web of fate. Through his divine power, Pelor can peer into a person's past and future through the long river of time. Lines with different directions represent different directions of destiny. Of course, it is impossible for a person to realize all the directions of destiny. He can always only choose one path. Therefore, most of these threads of fate are the fates that may happen to Irene, and only one of them is the fate that actually happened.
The intersection of the lines is called the fulcrum of fate, and these are key points in the life that Irene may experience in the past or in the future. And that glowing fulcrum of fate is the dimension of time and space that Irene is currently in. In other words, she is now on a fulcrum of fate.
In the eyes of ordinary people, this is nothing more than a glowing mesh, but Perrault is able to peek into part of a person's destiny through these seemingly meaningless threads. Yes, just some, not all. Even gods can only spy on and influence the fate of a mortal, but they cannot truly predict and control the fate of a mortal. The only thing that can control destiny is destiny itself.
The reason why Pero wants to watch Erin's Destiny Web is to read about her past experiences and see if she is really an innocent and kind person. Of course, he would also take a look at the person's future destiny.
After carefully observing Erin's web of fate, Perro didn't say anything. He then emitted another ray of light, which also did not directly shine on Irene's body. Instead, it became a ball of light that enveloped Irene's body. They seemed to carry some special power. Irene slowly rose up under the light, floating in the air less than half a meter above the ground. With.
Immediately afterwards, Irene's whole body emitted a dazzling milky white light. If anyone was watching her next to her at this time, they would find that Irene at this time was as bright and dazzling as the sun in the sky. And her face suddenly changed under this light. The ugly scars that had been attached to her face for more than ten years completely disappeared in an instant, and were replaced by a world-famous face that was not inferior to Annelotte! !
