Pastor's Tantra

It turns out you are the BOSS too, brother!

Aiwass felt the intimacy immediately.

Although Aiwass should theoretically be a person on the protagonist's side, he is very aware of his bad nature. It feels like I may not be very far away from becoming a BOSS.

And in Aiwass' view, the so-called BOSS is, in a sense, a "hero who made a wrong move."

——At least it will be like this from the middle of the version, after everyone has improved their skills.

It was precisely because they were on the wrong team and resisted the tide of the times; or because they took the wrong step for various reasons... that they became BOSS and entered the dungeon.

If they can make the right mistake in a critical decision, they may survive. Can even become a great hero. Because they all also hold their own beliefs.

Take Samuel, the Keeper of the Sword, for example.

He loved Avalon, the country of his birth. So after the destruction of the Kingdom of Avalon, he traveled the world in search of power. Finally, he found the technique to reforge the Holy Sword, and recast the key of St. Guinevere's Chapel that he guarded into the "Holy Sword-Red Handle Sword" once used by the ancient hero Galahad.

But what he didn't know was that the sword contained a powerful curse. Therefore, it was cut off and sealed by Merlin, the Master of Laws.

This sword must be wielded with a firm and pure will. Samuel, who picked up the red-handled sword without warning, was swallowed up by a curse that had been brewing for hundreds of years almost instantly, and his mind was controlled by the light attribute demon born from the curse. Eventually becoming the key executor of the "Shadow of Avalon" plan.

Aiwass accepted this heavy key with great care.

He knew that Bishop Mathers valued this key, and he also knew that the other party knew the origin and value of this key.

He takes Aiwass so seriously. So much so that in order to protect Aiwass, he was even willing to temporarily lend it to Aiwass for self-defense——

At this time, Aiwass had already made up his mind.

Except for my sister Yulia...

He also wants to change the fate of Samuel Mathers as a way to repay his trust and respect at this moment.

Strictly speaking, this is not difficult, as long as it prevents him from reforging the holy sword. The more fundamental solution is to prevent Avalon's demise.

And this is what Aiwass was meant to do.

Because we have the same goal.

In Aiwass' mind, what he was about to do was once again heightened. But he didn't feel heavy, instead he was eager to try.

At this moment, Aiwass had a thought in his mind:

Although he does not remember the main plot, he has basically forgotten all the important NPCs. I only remember a few of the NPCs in the protagonist's camp, and the rest don't even remember when they joined the team, and I haven't watched their personal plots at all.

But Aiwass remembers the bosses!

At least, he knows the BOSS of the main story very well. Not only do they know the other party’s name, profession, and mechanics, but they even know part of their background—for example, how they embarked on this path.

Well, Aiwass actually has a very mature and stable way to obtain "comrades".

——That is to prevent the fate of some people who were originally destined to become BOSS.

The fact that they can grow into BOSSs that players need to solve means that they must also have good strength. If Aiwass can redeem some of these good-natured people at the right time, he will definitely be able to get their feedback and help.

After coming back to his senses, Aiwass pretended not to know the value of the key, but still valued and appreciated Bishop Mathers. He thanked him seriously and vowed that he would return it within two months.

This is not a conflict.

If nothing else, the incident that caused Yulia to lose control should have happened just over a month later.

In that incident, at least three third-level demonologists, a third-level lawyer, and a fourth-level arbiter participated. He knew the weakness of the arbitrator, and by operating in advance, he might be able to prevent him from arriving.

But the remaining four people are still difficult to deal with. Not to mention that it was a demonologist who prepared in advance.

In the original plot, the enemy was defeated by Yulia's sacrifice.

In order to save the player and Aiwass, she took the initiative to lose control many times, and finally fully awakened the Flame Paranormal Butterfly. Relying on his last rationality, he controlled the Paraflame Butterfly to kill those enemies and let the player take Aiwass away.

After that, Yulia's soul died. Became part of the Flame-Contrary Butterfly.

And Aiwass can't shake people at will - because he will seal the Phantom Demon and use the Shadow Demon in this incident, and Yulia will also reveal her identity as the Egg of the Phantom Demon. It is best that no one except Yulia should reveal these two secrets of his.

Originally, Aiwass wanted to rely on the phantom sealed by the blank card to solve that incident.

Now that he has this "holy sword", Aiwass has a lot more confidence.

"...Then let's continue studying."

Bishop Mathers stabilized his mind and reluctantly accepted the existence of "a more genius than himself".

So he taught Aiwass his experience more seriously: "The so-called lighting technique is not about emitting flashes of light, but a principle similar to that of sacrificial fire - treating illness, curse, and fatigue as 'dark', and then using The light disperses it. Because it is not burned but illuminated, it is dispersed by the weak heat in this light. So the process is more stable, slower, and safer.

"Imagine yourself as a candle, and your palm is the wick of the candle. You can use your fire attribute to ignite your own life force, or you can use the flame of an external force to assist the combustion, which can save some of your mana. But you With the power of the flame container, there is no need to be so frugal.

"Then you only need to continue to invest light attribute mana, use your palm to gently touch the other person's forehead, back of the head or heart, and inject the light from your burning life into it, which can be used to soothe the spirit and dispel the curse respectively. , heal the pain..."

Illumination is simple. As long as you have a little light attribute mana, you can learn it easily.

Aiwass did not use experience to accelerate learning, and he learned it in only ten minutes. This proves that he is indeed talented.

After that, he paid three more experience points and quietly learned the blessing technique. But he didn't show it - because the blessing technique is the most difficult among the sacred arts. He could learn some simple fire sacrificial techniques in an instant, which could also be explained by Aiwass's natural affinity for flames.

But the blessing technique is not a skill that can be learned immediately.

That involves strengthening friendly forces, consecrating venues or props, creating holy water, etc... It's very complicated. Just listening to the lecture lasted more than an hour.

It took Aiwass three points of experience to learn it, which is proof of its difficulty. This shows that Bishop Mathers's initial calculation was completely correct - for Aiwass, blessing is indeed three times more difficult than offering fire.

In other words, Aiwass used four points of experience to save two, three days and a week - which is a complete cost-effectiveness.

Because what he lacks now is time.

——Tomorrow night is the full moon of November.

The full moon and new moon of each month are the two designated days for the advancement ceremony.

The success rate of rituals during the full moon is twice as high as that during the new moon, and the probability of rare entries being produced is greater during the new moon.

In a month and a half he will be involved in a tough battle. Before that, he only had three opportunities to advance despite all his efforts.

If Aiwass is not stuck at level at all, Aiwass can probably be promoted to priest, demonologist, and priest at the full moon, new moon, and full moon respectively.

If he misses this day, Aiwass will have to wait another two weeks to advance. Before completing the advancement, the overflowing skill level will not be converted into a professional level. That would cause a waste of experience... which would directly lead to the collapse of subsequent plans.

As long as Aiwass wants to make the first blank card within a month and a half, he must complete at least these two advancements of the priest, and he must complete the first advancement tomorrow - otherwise there will only be half a month left. , even if he takes shortcuts, it will definitely not be enough to raise the priest level to level 19.

—Luckily, those two at the Pelican Bar provided valuable communal experience!

Aiwass now has fifty points of public experience left. By investing it evenly into the four sacred skills and raising them by one or two levels respectively, he can raise his priest level to level 9!

In this way, he can enter the dream world tomorrow at the full moon to complete the first advancement ceremony... and light up his path of dedication directly to the second level!
