Becoming an adventurer by copying monster abilities
Chapter 76 The God of Music and Two Suggestions
"My friend is a scholar who is passionate about studying ancient civilizations. After our last conversation, I showed him the mark on your wrist."
It was ultimately determined that this deity had a fragmented history within a long-buried, desolate civilization.
Through Wyatt's description, Luke also learned a general idea of the mysterious being's past.
Her role in ancient civilizations is similar to that of "the unlucky girl" Bensaba, both closely associated with misfortune, calamity, variables, and uncontrollable chance.
Some scholars believe that He is not a native deity born on the continent of Rildran, but rather an outsider.
This is a fairly common occurrence.
The continent of Rildran is merely a region on the material plane.
The material plane is merely one corner of the vast and profound multiverse.
Throughout the long astral ages, powerful beings occasionally appear from the void, the shadow realm, or even some incomprehensible unknown planes.
They cast their indifferent or curious gazes toward us.
This deity is less a spreader of calamities and more a pure "observer".
He is not interested in the worship of believers, the harvest of faith, or even the offerings of sacrifices.
Most of the time, he simply watched quietly as fate unfolded.
Only when some extremely dramatic misfortune or unpredictable suffering befalls Him will He occasionally pluck the strings of fate and offer a faint response.
And it is precisely because of this that his name gradually fell out of favor and was forgotten in the long river of history.
The cultist village chief that Luke killed earlier might have been this god's last follower on the continent of Rildran.
"Based on your record in the Adventurers' Guild, it seems there are clues that this god has targeted you."
"What do you mean?" Luke asked, puzzled.
"It's your unique 'lucky' attribute."
Wyatt gave a slightly teasing smile.
"Please forgive me for looking at your file without permission. After all, the matter involves the Black Altar near Ryan City, so for safety reasons, we conducted a general investigation into the backgrounds of the relevant people and discovered some interesting things as a result."
In most of the commissioned tasks you've completed, it seems that unexpected situations or other unforeseen events always occur during the adventure, doesn't it?
Luke was actually quite speechless about his unlucky nature.
On his first goblin hunt as an adventurer, he encountered ogres.
Later, when she teamed up with Irene and others, she encountered a rare and unique entity called the Fang of Yenogu.
Even on this recent mission to clean up the giant rats in the sewers, they ran into a mad necromancer who was wanted by the authorities.
Aside from the goblin hunting quests he accepted daily in Twilight Town, Luca's other quests didn't seem to go very smoothly.
Despite the high level of danger and consistently high mortality rate of adventurers.
However, Luke's frequency of encountering accidents far exceeds that of his peers.
Unfortunately, the panel didn't display the luck attribute, otherwise Luka would have loved to see if his luck was negative.
Luke also raised a question that had been troubling him for a long time with Wyatt:
"Are you sure it's not because that god associated with misfortune has his eye on me that's causing my bad luck?"
"Your situation can't be considered unlucky, since every single commission was completed successfully."
Wyatt offered his speculation: "Perhaps it's precisely because you always manage to escape danger that this god has taken notice of you. Of course, this is all just speculation. If you're really planning to go to a dragon's lair or something to test your luck, then I can only wish you good luck."
This burly priest made a rare move and showed a bit of humor.
In short, Wyatt wanted to tell Luke.
His status as a "chosen one" should now be confirmed.
As long as you don't imitate those cultists and attempt to hold any "divine intervention" rituals.
This mark indeed wouldn't cause him any harm.
If this deity can find pleasure in the process of observation, it might even provide Luke with some assistance.
Luke felt somewhat displeased upon hearing this.
Isn't this deity building his own happiness on the misfortunes and suffering of others?
This is pure, unadulterated fun!
However, it did provide some help; the reduced side effects of [Fleeting Evasion] were thanks to this deity.
Although the process was somewhat painful.
Look how generous Death, Crandor, is; he directly lends his power to his followers.
Thinking of this, Luke had a sudden thought.
He took off the bronze ring from his hand and handed it to Wyatt.
In his previous report, Luca did not conceal the existence of Derian.
Without the help of the long-sleeping guide, Luke and Veronica, both of whom were of a higher level, would not have been a match for that necromancer.
The association's appraisers said that at least a level 9 or higher spellcaster would be needed to decipher the encryption on the ring.
Although Luke didn't know the priest's professional rank, he was definitely the highest-ranking person Luke had met in Ryan City.
This is a good opportunity to ask him about the ring.
Unfortunately, Wyatt was also helpless against sealing the ring.
Although he possesses spellcasting abilities, he uses divine magic more often, which is the ability directly bestowed upon him by the Lord of Dawn, Losanda.
Wyatt's fighting style can be roughly guessed from his muscular physique; he's not the type to be immersed in magical research.
However, he still gave Luke two sound pieces of advice.
Firstly, since this ring is a relic of the one who guides the long sleep, its opening method is likely related to the belief in the Grim Reaper.
If Luke becomes a follower of Crannwo, he might be able to synchronize with this equipment.
Luke thought about it and then abandoned the suggestion.
First, as a believer, all actions must conform to doctrine, which is tantamount to putting a shackle on oneself.
If one does something contrary to the doctrine, one becomes a renegade or a hypocrite, and is always ready to be judged by the church's executioners.
Moreover, he also has a mark from another god on his wrist.
If I rashly become a believer in the Grim Reaper, will those eyes in the black hall see me as a traitor and take some extreme actions against me?
Although Luke never considered himself a follower of this evil god, he still had to give him some face.
As for Wyatt's second suggestion:
"I happen to have a mage friend who meets your level of requirements. I can write you a letter of introduction and ask him to take a look. This is my way of thanking you on behalf of the church."
