Release that Witch Chapter 15: Self-righteousness
Seeing Knight take the lead, Roland returned to the table, "You can treat small animals, why do you still think witch is evil?"
"The teacher said that witch can do things that ordinary people can't do. Sometimes it doesn't look bad, but that's a trap set by Devil to seduce more people ..." The girl's voice went down. , "I, I have never seen Devil, I swear."
"Of course you haven't seen it, it's just Church's lie, and your teacher is also one of those deceived," Roland appeased.
"Church deceiving?" Nana opened his mouth wide, "Why?"
Roland shook his head without explanation. Even if he said it, they couldn't understand it. When civilization has not developed to a certain degree, such strange things will always happen. Even without the need to promote benefits, people will automatically attribute natural disasters, human disasters, or incomprehensible phenomena to the fantasy behind-the-scenes --. Historically, most of this pot was carried by women.
In this world, witch is more likely to become the target of Church's when it has actual forces of unknown origin. If you think about it, you can see that Church must not allow impossible to let this vision go. Otherwise, all witchs will be named as saints, saying that this is a gift from God; otherwise, they will hunt witch and call them Devil's spokespersons. However, once the former is chosen, the majesty of monotheism will be severely hit -- because the appearance of witch has nothing to do with Church. If the Church who believes in other godss also named witch as a saint, everyone is a God-chosen person, then whose **** is the only true god?
The premise that polytheism can coexist is that the gods exist and can restrict each other. Since God does not exist, they are fictitious markers created by mouth guns, so why let the other party share this world? Therefore, any monotheism will declare that it is the true God that it believes in. For pagans, there is only one way to go, which is physical destruction. Similarly, they can only choose the latter and spare no effort to hit witch.
This has nothing to do with preference, it's just for the benefit.
Live chickens are kept in the castle kitchen. When Knight came with its wings, it was still turbulent.
The next thing left Nana stunned. Roland found a silver knife from the waist, letting Knight hold it firmly, and then swung towards the chicken. After I finished, I let Nana come up to treat it, and then changed the way to continue after curing ... and so on.
When the chicken who had been tossing for a long time finally died, Roland had a general understanding of the capabilities of Nana.
She can recover damaged areas, including cuts, fractures, and bruises. If the part is completely missing, for example after cutting off the chicken's claws, she cannot make them grow new claws. However, attaching the broken claw and then performing the ability can make the fracture intact. In the end, she couldn't reverse life and death, and once the chicken died, her treatment was ineffective.
Roland did not see the "slimy water" she described during the entire treatment. She simply put her hand on the chicken's wound, and the wound could recover at a speed that was visible to the naked eye. After a series of experiments, the physical energy consumption of Nana is not large, at least not as sweaty as during Anna training.
The only one who was dissatisfied was Nana herself. She felt that she had treated the chicken so much that she kept glaring at Roland until the end of the experiment.
"Okay, don't stare, let's eat something," Roland had to use the "calling afternoon tea" trick to divert her attention. This trick has been tried and tested against Anna. He believes that few girls of this age can resist the temptation of delicious desserts. And it turns out that Nana's performance in front of exquisite pastries is not much better than the former.
After eating the pastry, Roland told someone to take away Nana. Anna asked puzzledly, "Why don't you leave her? She, like me, is witch, right?"
"She still has a family, and her family has not found her to be witch."
Anna whispered, "It's just a matter of time."
"Yes, sooner or later," Roland sighed. "So it can be a little later. Do you ... miss your father?"
She shook her head, and there were no waves of calm eyes like the lake. It seemed that being betrayed by her father had completely disappointed her. But she has no friends, and she will still have friends.
"Nana will come often. In fact, I plan to let her come here every two days to practice her abilities."
Hearing this, she blinked her eyes and nodded quickly.
"Do you want to return to Karl's school like her and study with other children?"
Anna does not have answer, but he feels that he has heard the voice of the other party.
"This kind of situation will not last long ... as long as I'm here, you will eventually be able to live like ordinary people, no one will take you wherever you go and send you to hanging post. This day will come , "Said Roland," I promise. "
*******************
Since the Karl van Bate took over the project, Fourth Prince Roland was immediately idled.
He stays in the castle garden every afternoon, practicing with Anna or Nana. Now that Anna is training, she no longer needs to prepare extra clothes. Even if flames jump on each finger, she can operate them proficiently, without igniting her witch hat like before.
Nana also put on the same witch uniform. Although she was reluctant to practice, she still pouted honestly for the sake of afternoon tea. Watching the two witch dangling in the yard, the bad taste in Roland's heart was greatly satisfied.
Occasionally he will also go to the Northern Slope Mountain foot to see the progress of the project. After more than two weeks of construction, the city wall has been repaired about 100 meters. In the era of theodolite ranging, Karl instructed craftsmen to use a wooden pole at the same time every day to determine the distance and straightness according to the shadow of the sun. A watchtower is set up every ten shots to stabilize the city wall.
The employment of such a large scale naturally attracted the attention of noble in the town, but they did not move except to find Barov to find out situation, as if this matter had nothing to do with them. Roland didn't take any notice of this. These people's family businesses are in Longsong Stronghold, and they will definitely not stay here to help him guard Border Town. He could even imagine the group of people laughing at themselves when they got together in private.
Not only noble, but also merchants. After buying animal fur in Border Town in the past, after seeing that there is nothing to buy this time, they have begun to return to stronghold. Dissatisfaction with empty-handedness was naturally vented to the governor Roland. The stupid and ignorant statement that Greycastle Fourth Prince Roland Wimbledon was still under construction before the arrival of Months of Demons has spread along Scarlet Water River.
I'm afraid no one thinks he can hold this small town at this time, even most people don't expect it at all. After all, the impression left by Fourth Prince for everyone does not include the courage to fight. No matter what he is tossing about, in the end he has to obediently return to stronghold for refuge.
In this way, in the discussions of everyone, Roland ushered in the first winter after crossing.
