My Magical Card Tavern

Chapter 51: The Holy Light is Contesting

Ginnell admired the nun's muscular physique with great respect.

The description of something as powerful ultimately depends on who is speaking.

If the speaker is a nun, and a nun whose extremely violent muscles cannot be concealed even by her robes.

That would be very convincing!

Ginnell glanced instinctively at the book of sacred words in the nun's hand.

"Is this the book you use to demonstrate your combat techniques?"

The nun gently shook her head.

"Not really. Although my specially made copy of the Holy Word is already quite heavy for most people, it's not enough to become my weapon."

"Moreover, as the daughter of the Holy Light, I cannot use the book inscribed with the Holy Word as a weapon to taint it with defilement and sin."

"When you see me, it's always when I need to preach and answer questions in the church, or when I'm teaching those young believers in Holy Light."

It means that Genelec had never seen what the nun was like in private.

Perhaps once it's time to leave work, the nun will take off her robes, put on her armor, and carry her heavy weapon—which, by its very weight, could randomly crush a group of monsters—out to earn some extra money.

Faced with a master of this caliber, Ginell also respectfully sought guidance on combat techniques.

The nun glanced at the small hammer at Gianna's waist, picked it up, looked at it, and then smiled.

"I remember this was something that Holy Light Churches at the village and town level would be equipped with, and it was also the favorite weapon of some young people who aspired to become Holy Light Knights."

"However, this weapon is still too light for you now, and the material itself is not keeping up with your growth."

Ginell nodded in agreement, confirming that this was indeed the origin of the short-handled hammer.

Now, it's just that she's gotten used to wearing it on her body and it's convenient, so Gianna always carries it with her when she goes out.

"That's what the nun said."

"Child of the Holy Light, you need a good set of equipment."

"A good weapon to unleash the wrath of the Holy Light."

High emotional intelligence allows one to vent the wrath of the Holy Light.

With low emotional intelligence, one swing could pulverize a monster's skull.

Gianna rested her chin on her hand and thought it over carefully, concluding that there was nothing wrong with what she said.

He now needs to keep using Luke's Lochta Blade, but that thing is essentially Luke's exclusive weapon.

In other words, it was a weapon for Luke to use to hack and slash at monsters, and more broadly, it was a weapon for orcs to use.

Their weapon-using habits, combat styles, and so on were all tailor-made for the orcs' physique and culture.

If you really want your own weapon, you can't just use cards to fill the gap.

Ginnell humbly sought to learn whether the Church of Holy Light had any specialized blacksmiths.

Weapons of melee fighters, staves of mages, forging hammers of dwarves—these things can all be considered to have a second life.

No matter how despicable or evil an adventurer may be, they cannot be indifferent to their weapons.

The nun smiled gently.

"Of course there is. The Church of Holy Light has a blacksmith who is our own, and he is the best in Silver Star City. He is also ranked among the best in the entire Northern Union."

Genelec's eyes lit up.

Ginnell wouldn't care about just any weapon, not to mention he now has connections with the Mage Guild, so there are ways to buy higher-quality weapons.

However, if it is a blacksmith from the Church of Holy Light, and ranks among the top in the Northern Union, then the rarity is completely different.

"Then, ma'am, could I ask that master blacksmith to forge a weapon for me?"

The nun's smile grew even more amiable.

"Of course, child of the Holy Light."

"However, you also understand what you need to do, right?"

Ginnell patted his chest.

"No problem, ma'am."

"Who do you want me to beat to death?"

The nun shook her head, indicating that believers of the Holy Light should not speak so rudely and aggressively.

After a moment's thought, Gianna asked again.

"So, ma'am, whose face would you like me to slap hard?"

The nun was silent for a moment, then couldn't help but laugh.

I didn't know there was such a way of describing it; it's quite interesting.

"It's nothing, it's probably just a small test for you."

"I've heard about your performance in the Adventurers' Guild. It seems that doing medical work in the rear is not quite up to your capabilities."

Genelec's expression shifted.

"You want me to go to the front lines as a field medic? That's no problem, but I need some autonomy."

While others venture into the Dark Forest to fight, he only needs to get up, casually eat a couple of bites, and wait in the dungeon.

The nun simply smiled and nodded in agreement to Genelec's request.

"The Holy Light will watch over you."

The only thing that Ginnell didn't quite understand during her visit to the Church of Holy Light was the nun's last sentence.

The gains are substantial, and there's even a promise to be made; given the style of the Holy Light Church, it's clearly not an empty promise that can't be fulfilled.

So what exactly does this last sentence mean?

Is someone behind my back keeping track of my battle record?

After Gianna left the Church of Holy Light, the nun slowly walked towards the main hall of the Church of Holy Light and stood quietly praying under the torch that symbolized the God of Light.

"Holy Light, your daughter Eve Mia begs for your guidance."

"The child you revealed has already agreed to this test."

"I just don't understand why you want him to fight using holy light."

Sister Eve really didn't understand.

The revelation of the Holy Light is not something too special, since any believer who can conjure up the Holy Light has received some revelation from it.

Some people suddenly have an epiphany when faced with a difficult problem, while others suddenly gain a deeper understanding during practice.

This time, the revelation was incredibly clear, even down to the individual level.

[Ginnell Ollie needs to use Holy Light as his primary offensive weapon]

This sentence completely baffled Sister Eve. After asking someone to investigate, she learned that Ginnell was the young man who had visited the Church of Holy Light.

Okay, putting everything else aside, Ginell's expertise in the path of Holy Light is indeed worth cultivating.

This is the meaning conveyed in the words and implied meaning of this revelation...

There's always a feeling of competing with someone, or even trying to completely overpower someone.

Sister Eve was very experienced in this kind of thing.

When she was young, she was that kind of goal, and the parents of her classmates at church school always regarded her as the "other people's child".

Whether it's combat lessons, religious training in the doctrines of Holy Light, or even practical courses requiring teamwork, some people see her as a role model and demand that their children surpass her.

And he, Eve Mia, has always been the tool used for comparison.

Although the idea was indeed somewhat blasphemous, Sister Eve couldn't help but think about it.

Who exactly is Holy Light challenging, and why must it become Ginnar's primary fighting method?
