I Really Like That Guy!
Vol 12 Chapter 4:
Mercer came to the largest city in Aili Continent, Bright City.
There is no such existence as a country in Aili Continent. There are only independent cities. Each city is governed by the city owner, and it can be regarded as a country of its own.
Among them, the largest and most fertile city is the place where the first temple of light is located - the city of light.
The ruler of this city is on the surface the city lord, but in fact it is the Holy See of Light. No one knows the majesty of the Holy See. Everyone is looking forward to joining the Holy See, even if it is an ordinary nun. Because it not only symbolizes authority, but also represents a good life without worrying about food and clothing in the future.
Even Aisha, the only daughter of the city lord, was sent to the Holy See to become the Holy Maiden of Light.
Walking in the city, Mercer felt a little uncomfortable. The streets are tidy and clean, the pedestrians are smiling, the air is fresh and the green plants are lush.
But the aura of light floating in the air is too strong, and most of the people are believers of light, with a strong belief, these bright things make him feel like he is being exposed to the sun.
Fortunately, now he has entered a new level, even if he is uncomfortable, he can bear it.
Mercer is 20 years old this year. He left home at the age of 18. After walking for two years, he has traveled through countless places, experienced dangers and opportunities. Now he has read all the magic book and learned more than half of it. .
If divided by strength, he is probably at the level of a magister at this time. The next step is Fasheng, and finally is his target Fashen.
When he is promoted to the God of Law, he can merge with the Godhead and become a true God of Darkness.
When he first got the book, Mercer thought it was God's will, and five years on, he's more convinced of it.
His talent in black magic is a miracle. In just five years, he was successfully promoted to magister. You must know that there are no more than 30 mages in the entire mages association, and they are all old men over 500 years old.
It is written in the black magic book that there is a class of people who are children of demons, children born in the abyss.
They have black hair and black eyes, have a special constitution, are extremely repulsive to light, and have a high affinity for darkness. They are evil by nature, full of destructive desires in their bones, they are born bad, destined to fall into darkness.
Murchel thought that he might be the son of such a demon.
As the son of the devil, he has practiced the heresy of black magic. Once he is discovered, his fate will never be good, but he came to Guangming City alone.
It's not that the art masters are bold, but they have another purpose.
Mercer never forgot the angel he saw in the dilapidated temple late that night. He always remembered her, and even as time passed, she became more and more beautiful and clearer in his memory.
He often met her again in his sleep, but only darkness greeted him when he opened his eyes.
That beautiful pure white angel was just a bubble. If it wasn't for a feather as proof, he might have thought that that night was just a dream for him.
The feather was treasured by Mercer in the box, and despite being so close to the black magic item, it was as pure white as ever, but the aura above it had long since dissipated.
Probably the creatures in the dark are born to fear the light, but also yearn for it.
Unfortunately, since he practiced black magic, he can no longer see the angel again through prayer.
What you want at first sight, if you can't get it later, you will only become more and more wanting, more and more persistent. That's how Mercer was, obsessed with the angel.
He wanted to see her, and then - rip her down from the sky, break her wings, and pull her into the darkness where he was hiding.
"Young man, are you here to participate in the selection of the Holy See's Paladins? Would you like to take a look at the knight costume I have here, which is made of the finest monster skins, and has a magic circle inscribed, which can increase the affinity of light..."
A voice pulled back Mercer's thoughts, and he looked up to see a short man selling his products on the side of the road.
Judging from his stocky stature, this should be a dwarf.
Guangming City is an all-encompassing city with a large population. The Holy See of Guangming believes in the God of Light, and believes that God the Father creates all things, and all things are the children of God the Father, so this city accepts all races.
Except for the demons and dark wizards from the fallen realm.
Demon Mercer showed a hearty smile. He had short platinum blonde hair and clear eyes as blue as the sea. He had a handsome face, three-dimensional and profound features, a tall and slender body, and a bulging chest and arms that looked strong and powerful.
At first glance, such a young man looks like a noble boy who has just walked out of the house, and the money is also the best.
Sure enough, after hearing the dwarf boss's remarks, the young man was obviously a little moved. He scratched his hair, grinned white teeth, and asked, "I'm planning to go to the Holy See to try my luck, boss, your knight costume here is really that good. okay?"
The Temple of Light holds a selection every year to select believers with pure faith and affinity for the light. Men become paladins, women become nuns, and older men become priests.
Although they are called up every year, there are not many ordinary people who are actually selected, and most of the places will be occupied by nobles.
The boss patted his chest and said, "I'm a dwarf, and dwarfs can't lie. Last year, a knight was selected in the knight uniform I made!"
Hearing this, a surprised expression appeared on Mochel's face, and he said generously: "If this is the case, then give me one."
The dwarf boss was overjoyed, and was taken advantage of again. A knight was indeed selected last year, but it wasn't his clothes, he just happened to have the same style.
On the spot, Mercer, who was taken advantage of, put on the knight's dress, which was a more everyday style, somewhat like a knight's dress. The silver-white cloth is straight and straight, and every button on the collar and chest is made of gold.
The appearance is very good, and it will improve the appearance immediately after wearing it.
Of course, the price is not cheap.
Mercer didn't care about this, he took out his wallet and took out a few gold coins without hesitation. He said he didn't need to look for the extra money.
Since he dared to come to Guangming City, of course he had already made all preparations.
Three months ago, he was no longer Mercer, but Adams, the youngest son of the lord of Gary.
Adams is a veritable libertine. With his noble background and outstanding appearance, he lives an extravagant life.
It happened that Mercer was going to Gary City, and the two ran into each other on the street. Adams saw that Mercer was extremely beautiful, and suddenly became lustful and wanted to forcibly bring him back to the City Lord's Mansion.
Mercer, with a calm face, killed Adams that night, pretending to be him with magic and replacing him.
In order not to be seen through, he slowly changed Adams' image in the eyes of the public while learning Adams's words and deeds.
Three months later, Lord Gary and many people believed that Adams had grown up and matured—they never felt that there was anything wrong with Adams' previous behavior, at most it was just a little fun when he was young.
Adams said that he wanted to go to the Holy City—this is the honorific name given to the City of Light by many Guangming believers. To participate in the selection of Paladins in the Temple of Light, City Lord Gary was so happy that he burst into tears, and immediately prepared his luggage and countless money to send his youngest son on the road. .
The old city lord was a father who doted on his son. When Mercer set off, he not only drove a luxurious carriage, but was accompanied by countless servants. Even if he walked on the road every day, he did not have the fatigue and hard work of the journey.
Finally Mercer got tired of disguising himself in front of the servants and left late one night with money.
Those annoying servants are probably still looking for him in a panic?
Mochel smiled indifferently, he raised his cloak, his handsome face seemed to shine in the sun, and countless girls on the street cast fiery gazes at him.
The location of the Temple of Light is in the center of the city. The closer it is, the more gorgeous the houses on the roadside, and there are fewer pedestrians on the road. Most people walk with their heads bowed, and they dare not talk or laugh loudly.
Mochel's expression also became solemn. He squinted slightly and looked ahead. If someone asked what the most beautiful building in Guangming City was, everyone would answer, it was the Temple of Brightness.
The whole body of the temple is snow-white, with an arc-shaped dome, tall and majestic, and it looks like a bright pearl from a distance.
When ordinary people see it, they will have a feeling of being healed and warmed, just like the thin sunlight shining on the body, which makes people feel gentle and comfortable.
Mochel was quite uncomfortable, but there was no difference on his face, and he walked to the gate of the temple with a smile.
There are many people outside the temple, including believers who come to worship, and young people who have traveled from various places to participate in the selection, like Mercer.
The arrival of Mercer has attracted a lot of attention. His appearance conditions are too outstanding. If you need to consider appearance when selecting Paladins, you don't need to think that he will definitely be selected.
What's more, judging from his temperament and dress, this is obviously the son of a nobleman.
So soon, someone came over to chat with him.
The name of the person who came here was Ken, and like Adams, he was also an out-of-tune libertine. The difference was that the libertine came here purely because he was forced by his family.
"You foreigners don't know that the number of paladins is predetermined, so we people don't need to think about it." Ken said affirmatively.
He is from Guangming City, born in a small aristocratic family, and he probably knows a little insider about the selection of knights.
Mercer quietly inquired about the news: "Really? There is such a thing? I thought that such an unfair treatment would not happen to the Holy See?"
Ken shook his head and said, "No, no, that's not what I meant. You probably don't know that in recent years, people often come to the Holy See with angel feathers. Those people are people who have been favored by the gods, and the Holy See will naturally accept them. They, do you understand my friend, those who are favored by the gods are what I call the default ones."
"Look there, that stern-faced guy, his name is Carl, he was a groom, one day he made a mistake in driving the carriage, he was supposed to be damned, but because of his piety he summoned an angel, this lucky guy, It was transformed overnight."
Ken was chattering and talking, when he suddenly noticed that his new friend looked very wrong.
"Adams, what's wrong with you?"
A haze seemed to shroud Mochel's eyes, and his clear blue eyes were as deep and indistinguishable as a stormy sea suddenly appeared.
He gritted his teeth, and his voice almost squeezed out of his teeth: "You said that many people have obtained angel feathers?"
Being stared at by him like this, Ken had a sense of crisis, and a flash of light flashed in his mind, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Oh dear Adams, you are not a lucky one too, are you?"
As soon as the words fell, the handsome man before Kane's face became even more gloomy.
