Original Vampire

Chapter 90

"This is the flesh of the Lord, which was given up for us. You should eat it."

In the quiet and solemn church hall, the voice of Archbishop echoed .

Vera respectfully took the sacrament (unleavened bread) from Archbishop and put it in the mouth.

"This is the blood of the Lord, it flows for us, you should drink it."

Archbishop handed Vera a glass of pure holy water.

Vera drank it in one go.

Standing in the crowd, Colin suddenly had some new ideas about these two prayers that he was accustomed to.

Of course he heard these two prayers in his coming-of-age ceremony.

The story behind this is familiar to every citizen of Glorious Empire.

It is said that thousands of years ago, human beings were not as strong as they are now.

At that time, the Human Race was not only bullied and enslaved by various alien races, but also targeted by countless demons.

These demons covet the souls of human beings, and use various means to deceive, tempt, and intimidate human beings to give up their souls.

The Human Race at that time was shrouded in darkness.

Until the appearance of Lord of Radiance.

According to the "Glory Scripture", He dedicated his body in order to save fallen mankind.

The flesh turns into the sacrament, and the blood turns into holy water, falling from the sky.

The human beings who eat the sacrament and drink the holy water will be able to get rid of the entanglement of demons and have the Holy Power to fight against.

At this point, Human Race finally embarked on the road to rise.

In order to commemorate the sacrifice of Lord of Radiance, the coming-of-age ceremony hosted by the church will have such a process of sharing the holy water of the sacrament.

Watching Vera drank the holy water, Colin licked his lips, greedy.

He thought of the bottle of pure holy water that had helped him advance, and he secretly guessed-wouldn't it really be the blood of Lord of Radiance?

"After eating the Lord's flesh and drinking the Lord's blood, the Lord of Radiance will be with you from now on!"

"The Lord is with me!"

……

The Vera Mitzvah ceremony continues.

Today's Duke's adopted daughter is wearing a classic and elegant white pear flower dress, with golden hair draped straight over her shoulders.

She didn't dress up today, she didn't have extra jewellery on her body, just painted light makeup.

But even so, it is still breathtakingly beautiful.

In addition, she did not wear shoes.

The white jade foot stepped on the cold marble floor like this, it is lovely and heart-wrenching.

Archbishop finally finished chanting the prayer, and finally put a crown of thorns on Vera's head.

Watching all this, Colin suddenly realized a problem.

Vera is a mage, but the coming-of-age ceremony of noble children has always been presided over by the pastor of Glorious Church.

This seems to be the default, Vera has converted to Glorious Church!

Of course, the Bar Mitzvah does not explicitly require that the recipient must be a church member.

But the reason for this is because the noble children of Glorious Empire, how can anyone not believe in Lord of Radiance?

Except for Vera, which is such an alien...

Oh no, Vera is no longer an alien.

She had already told Colin herself that she had converted to the Lord of Radiance after the first battle in the running river.

However, she also said that in order to avoid unnecessary troubles, this matter cannot be made public for the time being.

So, as long as Vera doesn't take the initiative to admit it, the wizards of Ivil will be able to step down. It can be explained that there is only such a form of the rite of passage for the children of nobles.

In this explanation, Vera's acceptance of the coming-of-age ceremony does not necessarily mean that it believes in the Lord of Radiance.

Unless Ivil wants to tear his face with the North now, the mages can only think so first.

After Archbishop gave Vera a crown of thorns, he bowed back.

After that, Queen Midella stepped forward and handed a copy of "Glory Scripture" to Vera.

Finally, Duke Saint Hild stepped forward and handed a Knight sword to Vera.

The crown of thorns symbolizes responsibility and dedication;

The glorious scriptures symbolize wisdom and faith;

The Knight sword symbolizes courage and Qi and Strength amount.

At this point, the girl who has reached the age of eighteen has finally completed her transformation and officially opened a new chapter in her life.

While witnessing all this, the single thought that came out of Colin's mind turned out to be——

After the coming-of-age ceremony, you can get married...

The ceremony has actually ended, and then the long-awaited dinner by the nobles.

Naturally, the dinner will not be held in the main hall of the church.

Led by Duke Saint Hild, everyone left the church and came to the atrium of Roar Castle.

There, Steward has already prepared everything.

Food, wine, music, dance floor... In short, the real night has just begun.

After Duke Saint Hild finished the opening remarks, the dinner officially began.

Just like the last banquet in Ice Rock City, many unmarried male aristocrats immediately focused on Vera, the focus of tonight’s banquet.

Who can invite her first dance?

Many people have set their sights on Colin.

Last time, it was this unremarkable son of Baron who successfully invited Vera, and he was the only one who succeeded!

And now, Colin has transformed himself into Viscount Anglia.

It seems that Colin is more certain this time.

So, the male nobles hesitated a little.

I want to see what Colin is doing first.

After all, he is the most promising man in the audience to dance with Vera.

Colin is still in that leisurely posture, as if he didn't realize that a fierce competition had begun quietly.

And just when the male nobles were hesitating, a troll noble suddenly stood up.

I saw that Prince Ganben came to Vera and gave a standard human noble ceremony first, and then said loudly:

"Beautiful Miss Vera, in order to celebrate your coming-of-age ceremony, I specially prepared a small gift for you, I hope you like it!"

After that, Ganben took a roll of parchment from the attendant behind him, and slowly unfolded it.

That is a map.

Colin raised his eyebrows, thinking that this guy wouldn't want to play a tricky trick.

He then shook his head again, denying his conjecture.

Even if Troll really wants to send assassin, he will not send Ganben. It is almost the same to send the northern prince who is said to have just been promoted to Sacred Domain.

The map is completely expanded.

There is no dagger.

There are only three big red circles.

Ganben pointed to the three red circles on the map and said to Vera: "My honorable Miss Vera, my gift is these three military forts!"

Colin took a few steps closer , I can see the location of the three military forts.

They are all on the southern border of the kingdom of troll!

What does this mean?

Send your defense to the enemy?

Vera looked at the map blankly, also a little confused.

With her military qualities, I am afraid that she hasn't figured out what this means.

However, Duke Saint Hild spoke: "Prince Ganben, you mean, these three military fortresses will be garrisoned by the Northern Army?"

"Yes !"
