Chapter twenty-four and twenty-five
Chapter 24 Simple Task (2)
"Wendy, Rennes, you two are coming out." Shukara did not talk about the mission first, but called the two people's names. With his call, two thin figures appeared from another door in the room.
Two very beautiful children, this is what Shi Leiyin commented on the two newly appeared in the room. The ones entering the room should be a man and a woman, two children, who will not be over twelve years old at most. Both of them have short hair, wearing the same style full-body robe, a wool vest on the upper body, and a wool waistcoat on the lower body. The neutral hair and medium-sized clothes, coupled with the two children's similar appearance, made Shi Leiyin unable to tell which one was a boy and which one was a girl.
"Are they serving?" Jessica was stunned when she saw the two dresses. They were dressed in the intern clergy. It is said that because the Son of God had been selling sheep for thirty years, this so-called service outfit was actually the shepherd's clothing worn by the Son of God when she was herding sheep. Since the second-level profession of pastor is not a combat profession and can be directly appointed by the church, now people who choose to serve as preparatory pastors have almost disappeared. People will choose other professions, or simply enter the church and wait to be selected to become pastors directly. So when they see that these two children chose to serve this profession, Jessica was very surprised, but what surprised her even more was their age, because no matter what, serving is also a first-level profession. The two children entered the first-level at the age of twelve, which was a big blow to Jessica, who entered the first-level at the age of fourteen.
"They just changed into clothes first." Shukara guessed the reason why Jessica was surprised "Wendy, Renn, introduce yourself"
"I am my sister Wendy Sooka, two sisters," one of the children took a step forward and saluted Jessica and Elica.
"My name is Rennes Shuka, two sisters are good." The boy behind seemed very timid and introduced himself in a small, almost inaudible voice.
"My name is Erica Fransova, you can call me Sister Erica." Erica is the only daughter in the family. She was naturally very happy to see two children who looked very much like younger brothers and sisters.
"I am Jessica Elsad, you can call me Sister Jessica." Jessica smiled. She was thinking about the surname Shuka. In the kingdom, there seems to be no noble who has the surname Shuka, and the only person who may be related is the principal Shukara in front of him. Could it be that Jessica turned his doubts to Shukara.
"You guessed it, they are civilians." Shukara likes this Jessica more and more. Although Jessica may not be as good as Erica in terms of strength and potential, she is obviously better at thinking and analyzing, which will be of great benefit to future improvement in magic.
"What I want you to do is to help them two complete the transfer trial of their service smoothly."
"Aren't they already serving? Why do they still need to undergo a job transfer trial?" Jessica asked in confusion.
"They just wore service clothes in advance. According to the regulations of the capital church, anyone who wants to become a clergy must go through God's test." Shukara's face became a little unfair, as if he had thought of something. "In the past thirty years, less than twenty people have participated in service trials, but none of them have succeeded. I think Jessica, you should understand the reason."
"Civilian..." Jessica's face turned pale, "Then why do you want them to go?"
"Fifty years ago, I sponsored children from a village to learn various knowledge and skills in the name of private." Shukara turned to look at the two children. "And in order to thank me, the villagers of that village changed their surname to Shukara's Shukara, and the name of the village also changed to Shuka Village.
Every ten years, Shuka Village will send the most gifted children in the village to me and let me decide their future path. I will make them choose the right profession based on the qualifications of those children, and the two of them, obviously the most suitable one is the priesthood."
"We are willing to take this risk, too." Wendy suddenly interrupted, "Mr. Shukara has told us the danger, and we are willing to take the risk to try." Although Renne did not speak, he nodded firmly.
"I'll take this task!" Elica made a decision before Jessica was about to say something, "I want to see what problems a group of old men in the church have to give them two." Listening to the conversation between Jessica and Shukara, Elica was already full of anger. She was straightforward, but she was not a fool. How could she not hear the truth that the church deliberately made things difficult for the civilians and prevented them from becoming clergymen. She agreed with her chest. For this reason, Shi Leiyin had been in pain for a long time. He was being held in the arms of Elica. This time, he almost threw him away.
"Thank you, Sister Erica, Sister Erica!" Wendy bowed to Erica several times, her little face full of gratitude. Renn looked at Jessica with a question on her face.
"Oh," Jessica sighed, "I agreed, now let's talk about what trial you are going to complete."
Chapter 25 Simple Task (III)
The church originally gave Wendy and Renn three trials, asking them to choose one that suits them. This is the decision they made after learning about the surnames of the two children and Shukara. The first trial method was to hand over a demon horn or a little demon horn. This was the trial given by the priests who strongly opposed the civilians' entry into the clergy. The monsters with these two horns are above level three and live far away from people. Even if the priests can use their own power of light to restrain these monsters, the monsters they protect around them are not two small servants who are as strong as first-level. Of course, the priest who proposed this trial did pass such a trial himself - relying on family power to open the way.
Later, he killed the little Ba Fengte who had been tortured for a long time. The second trial method was to use the mountain springs in the Moyun Mountains to make 100 bottles of holy water. The holy water is purer and the purer the holy power, the better the quality of the holy water. The high mountain spring of Moyun is the best spring for making holy water. This trial method was a task given by the pastors who love materials. Originally, they only planned to make two children make 100 bottles of holy water (making holy water is also a kind of practice of holy power). However, under the oppression of the opposition, this trial was required to be carried out in the Moyun Mountains filled with huge centipedes and orcs. However, despite this, as long as you act carefully, the trial can still be completed.
The third trial is simpler, and you only need to pay two rayon grasses. The request for this trial was for part of the top priests of the church. They were originally firmly opposed to civilians entering the priesthood, but Shukara's name made them decide to use these two children to establish a good relationship with this great sage. Rakugra is expensive, but it is still something that can be bought, and it is almost all based on luck to obtain it. So even if Shukara pays for the children to hand in the money, it can be said that the children are lucky to find it.
After listening to Shuraka explaining the differences between the three trials in detail, Erica decided to choose the second trial. The reason is very simple, and the opposition is not a good thing.
No one stopped Jessica from making the decision in the first two times, so naturally he followed her opinion this time. Although in her opinion, choosing Raygrass is the most correct decision, Wendy and Renne are children, and they and Erica are adults. The two children obey Shukara's opinions more. Seeing that Shukara had no intention of objecting, they naturally followed Erica's opinions.
"Tell me what you really mean." When the two children ran to the church to tell them about the trials they had received, Jessica asked Shukara again.
"The Moyun Mountains are a very dangerous place for first-level professions, but this is only for individual first-level professions." Xiu Kara changed a pot of tea and began to explain to the two. "I found that the previous practice method of fighting each other was not the best and fastest way of practice. No matter how rational a person is, there is a limit of practice. The mixed cooperation method of range and melee combat was not favored before. So I have been looking for a suitable cooperative practice method for the past 30 years. A melee, a long-range, and a support combination is the most reasonable and minimized combination form I think now. As long as I perform properly, even if three first-level professions are in the Moyun Mountains for a period of time, there is no big problem."
"I am a melee warrior, Jessica is a mage, and is naturally a long-range one. Although Wendy and Renne are young, they can serve as support. In other words, the combination we are now is the best practice combination, right?" Erica's reaction to "cultivation" was indeed very fast, and she immediately understood that although this time she was a task, it would also be a direction for her future practice.
"Thank you, Teacher Shukara" Jessica is much calmer in comparison. She has already understood that this is a win-win situation. Shukara has experimented with her own ideas, and she and Erica have a better direction for cultivation, while Wendy and Rennes can successfully complete the trial.
"Wendy and Renne will be back soon, so you can go back and prepare first." Shukara stood up and sent the two girls out of the house. Before saying goodbye, he gently said to Jessica, "Through this opportunity, we should cultivate your relationship with the children. The church will not easily accept two civilians. Going out is their best choice."
