Tome of Blood

Chapter 8 -8- Mysterious Symbols

"The dark erosion on your body has been purified, but the injury has not fully recovered, and you need to rest."

"Although the healing effect of the holy fire is good, you are still young and it is not suitable to rely on it too much. This will consume your body's potential."

"In the past two days, you can eat more meat products to supplement your nutrition."

"If necessary, you can also ask Lottie to help you perform lay on hands to speed up the healing of the wound."

"Lottie is my student. Her lay on hands are superb. Although not as good as Kara's, she is much gentler."

"Oh, by the way, Miss Charlotte, have you heard of lay on hands?"

After the physical examination was over, Dean Raoul stood kindly in front of the hospital bed, chatting with Charlotte.

At the beginning, the diet and treatment matters during the wound recovery period were told.

But as soon as he talked about lay on hands, he seemed to turn on some kind of wonderful switch, turning into a machine gun-like chatterbox, and began to talk endlessly about various magical means to treat injuries.

From the efficacy of lay on hands to the origin, and from the origin to the developer of the magic.

From the developer of divine arts to the history of the sacred royal court, and from the history of the sacred royal court to the customs of the mainland...

At this moment, Charlotte somewhat understood why Lottie, who took care of her, liked popular science and chatting so much.

It turns out that this is a direct line between master and apprentice.

Raoul went on and on.

Charlotte listened obediently.

Sometimes, she even pretends to be a curious baby, proficiently showing off her cuteness, while turning a corner.

She also hopes to add some common sense in this world.

After all, the original body's memory on this aspect was completely blank.

This world is not an ordinary world at all.

The reason why Charlotte felt ordinary during the three days of crossing was because the old witch grandmother in the original body never taught her these common senses, only some noble etiquette.

Oh no.

Noble etiquette was also taught by the head maid, before she became a living corpse at that time.

Besides, this world is called Miria, and it is a world with gods and supernatural beings.

The gods protect all living beings, form beliefs, and separate churches.

Transcendence rules the world to form countries for the powerful.

Charlotte is located in a feudal kingdom called the Crescent Kingdom in the west of the mainland.

The title she will inherit is the Earl of Castell, and her lord is the Duke of Bold, one of the nine Dukes in the kingdom.

By the way, in history, the New Moon Kingdom was overthrown by the blood race, so the church and nobles in the whole kingdom were quite wary of the blood race.

Nobles control the extraordinary and are powerful and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but they must also succumb to faith.

The gods are the masters of all things, and faith is the foundation of everything.

Extraordinary power comes from God, the power of kingship is also blessed by God, and all glory belongs to God.

The Holy King's Court is the largest church force in the Miriam world, a polytheistic belief that honors the creator god Harald and is assisted by many subordinate gods.

Charlotte listened carefully to Dean Raoul's popular science.

This knowledge is very necessary for her to quickly get acquainted with the world.

However, she did not fully accept the knowledge told by the old priest.

Dean Raoul kept his words close to God Lord Harald, and it was obvious that there were a lot of private goods.

Although there is a god in this world, Charlotte, who has studied the history of Blue Star, knows what religion is. The old priest's words must have been processed.

But it doesn't matter, Charlotte can get acquainted with it roughly.

What Dean Raoul said was much richer than what she had inherited.

This even made Charlotte doubt whether the original body had been raised as a canary in the manor since the original body was so big...

She doesn't even know the unit of measure for money!

And when she heard something she was interested in, Charlotte would even take the initiative to ask some more in-depth questions, which made Dean Raoul's eyes brighten and his interest became even higher.

The old priest was enthusiastically popularizing science, and gradually, the topic turned to the teachings of the holy royal court.

It was different when he started talking about doctrine.

At this moment, Dean Raoul seemed to be an old scholar who recited sutras. Although he looked enthusiastic and excited, the content of the narration began to be boring and drowsy.

It's not that he didn't speak well.

But for a former atheist like Charlotte who has preconceived ideas and never believes in religion, it is completely a chicken-and-duck talk.

Charlotte was dizzy and lost all interest just now.

But she still had to cheer up, listen attentively, and show a respectful and fanatical expression.

no way.

Who told her to revise the ceremony just now and judge herself as a believer of the holy royal court?

This is really a painful process.

She felt like Monkey King under a magic spell.

The benevolent old priest in front of me is slowly reunited with Master Sanzang in the film and television drama. The tall priest hat is the five-Buddha crown, the robe on his body is cassock, and the staff in his hand is a Zen staff...

It's really... so terribly similar!

Charlotte was drowsy, but the old priest became more and more enthusiastic.

The more he talked, the more excited he became, and the more he talked, the more enthusiastic he was, and finally he took Charlotte's hand, preached on the spot, and asked Charlotte if she was interested in joining the church and becoming an alternate priest...

"How? Miss Charlotte, your faith is very pious. I can act as your introducer and recommend you to enter a church school for further study."

Charlotte woke up instantly.

It's okay to listen to the other party's nagging teachings.

It would be exciting if he really became a priest.

A weak and helpless newborn to believe in a religion whose goal is to eliminate evil?

Isn't this courting death?

Although at a certain moment she was also a little bit moved, after all, after joining the divine religion, she will have the opportunity to continue to pluck the wool of the divine magic ritual like just now...

But Charlotte was calm after all.

There is a limit to the power of magical countermeasures.

There is also a difference between deceiving a divine ritual and becoming a priest.

Charlotte can cheat the holy fire, but can't use the holy fire.

If she really joined the religion, she might show her feet in front of more powerful priests!

In addition, becoming a priest may bring her a dispute over the inheritance of the territory...

The risk...is too great.

However, directly declining it doesn't seem to be in line with the character of the pious believer that Charlotte just established...

Charlotte is caught in a dilemma.

"Raoul, it's time to go."

The female knight glanced at the old priest lightly.

That cold and indifferent voice was so pleasant to Charlotte's ears at this moment.

Dean Raoul was slightly taken aback, only then did he realize that what he said was a bit on point.

"Sorry, cough, I lost my composure."

He blushed, coughed dryly, and returned to the appearance of a respected elder, and said kindly:

"Miss Charlotte, thank you very much for your cooperation. Please rest well and consider my proposal carefully."

"May God be with you, and wish you a speedy recovery and discharge from the hospital."

After speaking, he drew a circle of the cross on his chest, and together with the female knight, turned around and planned to leave.

However, as soon as he took a step, he stopped again.

"Oh, yes, there is one more thing."

Dean Raoul slapped his head.

He took out a piece of parchment from his pocket, unfolded it in front of Charlotte, and asked solemnly:

"Miss Charlotte, have you ever seen this symbol?"

Charlotte looked over, and her heart suddenly tightened.

On the parchment, there was drawn the pattern of thorns and roses that she had drawn casually when she intercepted the sacrifice last night.
