Chapter 39 The Kind World
"Shade Hamilton, Detective."

Shade shaking hands Also take the initiative to introduce yourself.

"Bill has already told me about you, and being able to join is both your luck and our luck."

The old man said happily, and Shade saw it at this time. The champagne placed in the ice bucket on the coffee table should have been prepared by Dr. Schneider, because the economic situation of Augustus priority seems to be only better than that of Shade.

Ratt Augustus priority is the second ring warlock in this group, who became the correspondence ring warlock three years ago.

He was not a native who grew up in Tobesque, but came from a small town in the south of the Kingdom of Delarion. Influenced by his family, the old priest believed in the righteous god [Mr. Dawn] since he was a boy. He passed the exam of the Tobesque Dawn God Academy in his youth, and joined the Dawn Church in Tobesque City at the age of 23. All contribute to the church.

Although it has been a full 30 years, Augustus Priest has not gone further from the identity of the Priest due to various reasons. But no one doubts his piety. The old priest has a very high prestige in the parish church, and is very trusted by the clergy and believers in the parish church of Dawn Church. Even Archbishop in the Major Sect district like Tobesque Parish will be there. Ask him for his opinion on certain important issues.

Because of the awkward relationship between the correspondence ring warlock and the Orthodox Church, Shade will often need to hide his identity from the church in the future. And Augustus Priest is the best person in the group who has the connections of the Orthodox Church and settles the church incident.

Although the ring warlock innate talent is not very good due to his advanced age, the group of five must not be without him.

As a testament to mutual trust, Augustus priest and Shade also show each other their rings. Priest also belongs to the unusual situation in the ordinary situation, but instead of three like Miss Luyisa, there is only one core spirit rune [shimmer].

The identity and core rune of Augustus priest are in line with the requirements of the "God Academy" of the comprehensive Academy of St. Byrons. But the priest did not join the God Academy, he is now a member of the Chemistry Academy, proficient in the cultivation of herbs, the picking and the preparation of potions.

The group of five, and now Shade knows one more person. Among the remaining two people who did not arrive, Miss Dorothy Luysha, a writer belonging to the Folklore Academy, will probably take some time to come, and the other three-ring warlock Luvia Anat will not be able to come today. She Some things are temporarily out of the city of Tobesque.

"Miss Annat is actually different from us, strictly speaking, she belongs to the ring warlock of the [Prophet Society]. Anna wrote a letter, let us say hello to you, she will not be available until next month I'll be back, but it's not a few days, it's next week."

The doctor continued to introduce the situation of the group, indicating that Shade, who had finished shaking hands, could find a place to sit down.

"Since she also belongs to our group, isn't that lady a correspondence student from St. Byrons?"

Shade asked suspiciously, choosing to sit opposite Dr. Schneider.

Augus priest, although of a church background, received his Academy adult education, so he can be regarded as a correspondence student of St. Byrons, this Miss Annette is completely different.

"No, she is also a correspondence student of the Academy. She belongs to the Astronomy Academy and is proficient in divination. As for why she has dual identities, do you know 'joint training'?"

Doctor Asked, Shade was just puzzled when he heard the lady's information just now, but now he is really surprised, once again confirming that the force he joined is really a school.

"She herself still belongs to the [Prophet Society], but has been cultivated in two ways. In fact, the St. Byrons Comprehensive Academy, and many friendly organizations, including Zarathven Academy and Serkses Higher Medical College, but not the church, has such co-training students, you will find out later.

But don't have to think about her because of her identity, treat her as ordinary My companion is fine. Do you need tea? Last time I drank good black tea from you, I also asked the servant to buy some."

The doctor asked, Shade thought for a while:

"Ok thank you so, actually Miss Luvia Anante is the same as us?"

"There is still a difference."

Augus priest aside While he was playing with his old pipe, of course he wouldn't smoke in the clinic, it was just a habitual action:
"Miss Annette is not only able to gain knowledge at the Academy, the [Prophet Society] can also provide her with convenience. , she herself is highly valued by the warlocks of the [Prophet Association]. So relatively speaking."

The priest glanced at the doctor, who shook his head indifferently, indicating that the gray-haired old priest can continue Go on:

"Although she is only a third ring, and only one ring higher than me in the group, even the doctor is not sure that she can beat her in the case of non-head-to-head combat. Of course, there are also Schneider and Luyisa's ability is not suitable for frontal combat."

Auguspriest believes that although the ring warlocks have power, this profession is to study the world and deeply explore themselves, and Not for fighting and killing. In the eyes of the old man, the ring warlock is more like a scholar than a mercenary.

He is very similar to the doctor's thinking. After becoming a correspondence ring warlock, he should not indulge his heart because he has gained power, but should be humble and cautious.

In other words, the two are euphemistically reminding Shade that you must be careful in doing things, and don't participate in things you shouldn't be involved in. Patiently reading, engraving spirit rune to accumulate spirit, reading predecessors' notes, and learning more Mystic Art and spells are the correct life state of the correspondence ring warlock.

Shade therefore suspects that the doctor has told Augustus priest what happened to him the day before yesterday. Augustus priest fears that Shade, because he suddenly gained power through the remnants of the old gods, is eager to gain more power through similar adventures, so he would say this.

August priest is also a very nice guy.

"Speaking of which, I'm actually quite curious about one thing."

Since he mentioned the relationship between ring warlock and fighting, Shade asked:

"Since the ring warlock itself gathers elements, there are even spirit runes engraved because of the elements. So if you kill the ring warlock, can you get the opponent's power, such as spirit rune, such as escape elements, or the opponent's elements Turned into artifacts or something."

"Oh, this idea is too terrifying."

The gray-haired old priest shook his head, held the holy symbol on his chest and closed his eyes in prayer . The doctor shook his head very seriously, those blue eyes looking at Shade:

"Shade, I don't know where you got such a terrifying idea. But kill the ring warlock that has nothing to do with you, you All you can get is the dead body and the guilt that will stay with you for the rest of your life.

From Delarion to Carson Rick, old continent to new continent, steam-industrial cities like ours to gloomy Country cemetery. Ring warlock can appear almost anywhere, but remember, this is the age of civilization, not the Dark Forest where weak are prey to the strong. If someone takes the initiative to attack you, you can fight back, but not for pure It's easier for you to get out of control."

Shade also understands that what he said is inappropriate, only because of the fantasy stories he has read in the past. The outlander doesn't want to get power by killing people at all, he just worries that others will do it:
"Sorry, but I'm just curious. Yes, such a world is too terrifying, as if people can live by eating people. "

Augustus, who was holding the holy emblem, first looked towards Shade, his eyes were not as severe as the doctor's, and his wrinkled eyes showed a gentle meaning:
"Although our world is so strange And terrifying, entrenched in countless evil things, the relics of the past era can be seen everywhere, the knowledge of danger and mystery challenges the rational limit of normal people at any time, walking on the ground is the Evil God who peeps the world, hidden under the ocean of old and new continents The abyss is giant beast, but we are still happy for the existence of the world. Come, gentlemen, respect this benevolent world."

The old priest said that he was also moved, and took the initiative to raise the tea cup in front of him, the doctor Nodding and raising a glass in relief, Shade smiled. No matter how bad the situation is after he came here, it seems that this world is compensating him, sending him such good friends:
"To this kind world."

The three of them said aloud together, and the smile of the foreigner at the moment came from the heart.

At this time, the door was pushed open, and the blond writer who broke in without knocking did not hear the previous conversation, but when the door opened, he saw three men holding teacups high, one with a holy face. , One with a serious face, the other with a smile.

Miss Luyesha looked at the men hesitantly, wondering if she should quit:

"What were you doing just now?"

PS: It seems that no one guessed right. The occupations of the five people are [Detective], [Writer], [Psychiatrist], [Clergy] and [Divinator]. The detective is the protagonist of this book. Although this is not a group portrait, the remaining four people, each of whom has a branch line closely related to the main line, will play an important role on the next stage, not a tool person.

In addition, although the original owner of the body of the protagonist of this book Shade has no family, no family to warm the lonely heart of a newcomer, but with such a friend, he will not let "dangerous" foreigners come here. Going to extremes in the days that followed.

The author himself is very inclined to describe the protagonist who has a good character, but is not an absolutely bad guy. The environment will affect a person's development, so when Early-Stage has no memory of the original owner and lacks money, such "friends" are set up to assist the protagonist's character shaping. Although this world in the age of steam is dangerous and weird, the brilliance in the character can be more visible in the dark, which is probably the meaning, it seems a little too nagging.
