is the son of the Holy See, but the master of black magic

Chapter 12 Anthony Self-Doubt

Everything in reality is completely different from what the girl originally imagined——

Turning his head and looking around, he could see that in the surrounding auditorium, a large number of extraordinary people in white robes were pointing in this direction.

The young people on the other stone chairs were also raising their heads, watching the "clouds" floating in the sky.

There are two clouds left.

One of them, not surprisingly, was the strong Anthony whom Lily admired in her heart.

But what she didn't expect was that the other party seemed to have reached the limit at this moment!
When you look up at the illusion, you can clearly find it.

Anthony, who was standing with his sword, had already come to the devil's podium.

But he obviously couldn't do more.

Because this new star is trembling all over at this moment, looking like he might collapse at any time!

how come……

Lily looked dumbfounded.

Because after a little thought, she can come to a conclusion——

If I hadn't been distracted before, I could have lasted longer than Anthony!
But how is this possible?
She and Anthony are not on the same level at all...

Lily didn't understand why this happened.

Anthony can take the first place, which is what she believed in before.

This is not some nympho idea, but a perception based on the understanding of Anthony's strength.

As the strongest rising star in the country, Anthony's strength is not just simply developed limbs.

Known as the brightest rising star of the younger generation, although he looks like a vase on the outside, he is as firm as a rock on the inside.

Strong willpower is his most famous strength.

At the age of five, when his peers were still peeing their pants and playing in the mud, Anthony had already determined to be a paladin in the future.

If that's all, then it can be said that he is quite precocious.

But Anthony wasn't limited to precocity.

He really did it—

Together with one of his uncles, who wore tattered clothes and brought nothing but a bowl, he lived a life of asceticism traveling around the country to temper his temperament.

Persisted until the age of ten!

You know, most of the country is desert...

It can be seen that his willpower is strong.

Anyway, Sister Lily was ashamed of herself.

That's why she felt that it was impossible for her, who had lived in a family and a nun's convent since she was a child, to be able to compete with that kind of strong man.

However, unexpectedly, the reality is completely opposite...

This discovery shocked her deeply.

But what made her feel even more incredible was the second cloud.

In the other cloud, the one who is still persisting is Andy, who in her opinion is very disadvantaged!
"How is he, even this one is so strong..."

After watching for a while, the girl fell silent.

As a person with peace of mind, she shouldn't be some kind of startled girl.

I can't stand the scene full of contrast at this time.

The strong Anthony, who he admired quite a lot, can now be said to be holding on.

And Andy?

In the illusion, he behaved very normally.

He has been sitting on a bench near the podium, silently turning the rosary in his hand, and there is nothing unusual about his posture and posture.

It seems that the most ordinary pious believer is doing daily prayers and confessing his sins today in front of the gods.

But the word "ordinary" is so dazzling at this moment!
"He won."

This idea flashed through the mind of the deeply shocked girl.

Then feel ashamed.

Before, I thought that the other party was weak in willpower, and it was not fair to participate in this kind of assessment with other people.

As a result, it seems that they are not weak at all!

"Sure enough, father is right, you can't underestimate anyone..."

When she lowered her head and looked away, the girl thought silently, but her face turned red.

Because it is ashamed.

She felt that she kept commenting on Andy in her heart before, as if she was facing a giant, claiming that you are too short and need to grow taller to play with us...

What a shame!

……

The situation in the field did not reverse.

About another 10 minutes later, the blond boy who gritted his teeth in front of the devil statue finally knelt down on one knee and lowered his supposedly proud head.

As a result, the devil's laughter spread throughout the Starry Temple, and the echoes burst out, extremely ear-piercing.

Everyone didn't take it seriously at all.

They are always staring at the cloud group that belongs to Andy, without blinking their eyes.

"Will he make history?" Someone discussed in a low voice.

"The former archbishop is the holder of the longest willpower record in the country. How long has he persisted?"

"34 minutes."

"How long has the boy been?"

"21 minutes."

"..."

As if witnessing the birth of a miracle, the people in the auditorium subconsciously lowered their voices.

But because the overall environment was too quiet, Anthony, who had just withdrawn from the illusion, heard all this clearly.

He thought he would take the first place, so he was stunned.

After listening quietly for a while, Anthony looked up in disbelief, and then was completely dumbfounded.

On the outside, Andy's experience at this time is all ordinary, nothing unique.

But only those who have experienced it will clearly know how tortured and shameless the devil's whispers are!
It also allows him to better understand how powerful that ordinary boy who thought he was a weak person is now!
"I'm not his opponent..."

The more I looked at it, the paler Anthony's face became, his expression was in a daze, and he looked like he had been hit.

He is not a fragile person.

But who told him to underestimate the boy without even thinking about it before the assessment started?
Right now, he found that his best willpower was easily crushed by "a child", which made him feel stunned, and then his mood became turbulent.

It can even be said that this unexpected situation made him confused, and he was a little unwilling to believe the reality!

This is not just because of being compared to oneself.

What's more, after receiving Andy's performance, he fell into deep self-doubt.

As a reserve knight, humility should be the minimum standard of personality, but before that, he had never thought about labeling a person as a weak person.

So arrogant, so self righteous.

Although he still feels that those ideas are actually quite reasonable and in line with the cognition of normal people.

But now this fact proves that...

"What are you thinking about!"

The friend heard Anthony's murmur, so he slapped him on the head angrily.

"That guy is very strong, but something like willpower cannot be used as a stick."

"The next level is a one-on-one duel, you fucking cheer up and let that kid improve his knowledge!"

"Single duel..."

Anthony was startled when he heard the words, and then his expression softened, "Oh, it's time to cheer up."

"But I'm going to give it my all."

He then said to his friend in a serious tone: "It is impossible to underestimate him!"

"Are you crazy?"

The friend was surprised when he heard the words, and then couldn't help laughing.

"As for that skinny kid like a monkey, you still plan to go all out?"

"Don't bully the kids too much, okay?"
