You call this magic?

The stronger the determination, the greater the effect.

Good guy, I’m really good guy.

Ethan was originally wondering if this kid's growth would slow down if he didn't have Yixin's admiration, and now this happened.

The problem is, he's a little worried that this kid might trigger something like the farmer and the snake while helping others?

But this is also a test that heroes must go through.

Forget it, just tell the thief to give Belkop a good lecture and not to believe everything others say.

Afterwards, Bell was taken away by the thieves. From tomorrow on, he will live with the fighting faction in his clan. But the problem is that those Amazons are also fighting factions... Will they eat him secretly?

Well, it doesn’t matter.

PS: I originally wanted to name the hero Determination, but after thinking about it, I changed it. He won’t make up his mind so quickly now.

Volume 2: Dungeon Encounters (Part 1): Chapter 21: Join My Familiar

The next morning, Ethan arrived at the training ground and found that there were already people there.

It turned out that the thief was giving Bell one-on-one teaching, basically teaching him everything from posture to force techniques. It was obvious that the thief was very optimistic about Bell, so Ethan did not disturb them, but came to the dormitory on the other side.

Unexpectedly, the person he was looking for had gotten up earlier than him and was now sitting alone on the roof of the dormitory, staring blankly in the direction of the sunrise.

The sun had been up for a long time, and it was obvious that the child had probably been sitting there before the first light of dawn appeared in the sky.

"How's the sun?"

Ethan asked softly, standing behind Mary.

"Very beautiful." The pronunciation was still a little inaccurate.

Although she is already in human form, this is essentially still an imitation. She does not sleep in a bed at night, but in the bathtub. Her essence has not changed, and it will take her a long time to get used to human language.

"Mary, I want everyone in the dungeon to see the sunrise." She finished the sentence with difficulty and gently turned her head towards Ethan, "Ethan... Sir, I also want to learn how to fight."

This is the answer given by the little mermaid. In order to let other heretics in the dungeon see the beautiful sunrise like her, she wants to fight with her own hands.

First of all, she felt that she couldn't live here and eat and drink for free, especially after receiving Ethan's magic out of kindness. She didn't think it was a miracle that could be enjoyed for free, and she wanted to repay this kindness.

She doesn't understand the ways of the world. She only knows that if you receive a favor, you have to repay it.

The only thing Mary could do for Ethan was to be his companion in the dungeon and provide as much help as she could.

"In that case... do you want to join my clan?" Ethan saw the determination in the little mermaid's eyes and smiled.

Mary was stunned, not quite understanding what Ethan meant.

"I am a monster, a heretic," Mary said quickly. "In the eyes of God, I am a heretic."

She has a certain combat capability, but is more inclined towards supporting.

For example, as a mermaid, the most precious thing is "mermaid blood".

The healing effect of this thing is immediate. A person covered in wounds can recover immediately after drinking it. It is even more powerful than the goddess' healing magic.

What she meant was simple. She could follow Ethan into the maze, and Ethan would fight in front. If he was injured, she would use her own blood to heal him.

As a healer, she is basically the most reliable teammate.

but……

"Every treatment requires you to hurt yourself, right?" Ethan asked. "Unless it's an emergency, I don't agree with this treatment method."

"But, but I..." Hearing this, Mary became a little anxious, because she felt that this was her greatest value. What else could she do besides this?

"I told you, if you're willing to join my clan, I can provide you with a fighting style that's more suitable for you. How about that?"

[Secondary Favor] is not very useful for adventurers, but it won't have any effect on heretics, right?

"This is my own clan, not the clan of the god Soma," Ethan said. "Although this may seem unbelievable, I can do this. As long as you join my clan, I will always protect you, no matter what happens."

In fact, many gods are like this. Even if they have to become enemies with the entire Orario, they still have to protect their own clan members.

Mary's eyes slowly widened.

【I will always protect you】

These words were echoing quietly in her mind at this moment.

Recalling the malicious smile at the beginning that frightened her to death, and comparing it with the current smile, although it is the same person's face, Mary's mood is very different at this moment.

Ethan was an adventurer who gained her trust through practical actions. If she was to be handed over, she would have been handed over long before Uranus.

"I want to join your clan."

Mary lowered her head, but she couldn't stop smiling.

She was so happy at this moment.

Although she didn't know what Ethan's clan meant, she didn't care about it at this moment.

If Ethan was a person with bad intentions, Mary would have definitely fallen into hell at this moment. But the same thing goes, if he had bad intentions, it would be impossible for Mary to be free until now, let alone watch the sunrise freely alone.

"Okay, then let's go to my office first." Ethan patted Mary's head, rubbed her long green hair, and jumped off the roof.

The main purpose has been achieved.

As for the group of heretics, he can actually be saved or not. After all, Uranus didn't expect him to do anything in the beginning, but... Mary is cute, so what if she is double-standard?

Mary was helped and Ethan was successfully seduced, a win-win situation.

As soon as he stepped into the office, Ethan saw Su Mo was already there, playing with a decoration on the table.

Since he took charge of internal affairs again, these little tricks have become more and more frequent.

"My Lord God, what are you doing?"

Su Mo never comes to visit someone for no reason, which makes Ethan a little confused.

"Uranus came to me yesterday."

Okay, got it.

"I don't object to you helping those beings, but you must remember to act within your capabilities. My influence in the Assembly of Gods isn't that strong, and if serious consequences arise, I may not be able to protect you."

These are all facts, and it can be regarded as another way for Su Mo to care about him.

"If you feel you can't control it, go find Uranus. I have reached an agreement with Uranus. You just need to do your best. If there is force majeure, he will take over the matter at the appropriate time."

Ethan simply walked forward, hugged Su Mo, and then let go: "Thank you, God."

In order to make Uranus bear such a promise, Soma must have made some sacrifices, but no one knows what price he paid.

"It's okay. You are my child. Your help to the clan is more important than my insignificant price."

Su Mo has recently felt like he is getting closer and closer to being a responsible and good god.

"That skill... don't expose it to anyone, remember." After saying that, Su Mo slowly walked away.

As soon as Su Mo left, Mary arrived. She seemed a little nervous, and her whole body was in an atmosphere of excitement and anxiety. Obviously, she didn't hear what Su Mo said just now.

"Come, sit here and show your back."

Mary hesitated for a moment, then took off her shirt tremblingly, revealing her beautiful snow-white back.

In myths and legends, it is true that the mermaid's singing voice and back view have always attracted all kinds of sailors.

This back was so beautiful that Ethan almost couldn't control himself, especially after the pale green skin turned into human skin color.

After Ethan silently chanted "Amitabha" a few times, he bit his finger and pressed it on Mary's back.

At this moment, Mary and Ethan trembled at the same time.

Volume 2 Dungeon Encounter (I): Chapter 22 You Can

Successful.

The [Secondary Favor] that Ethan used on the heretic was indeed not restricted by race. Even monsters in the dungeon could be engraved with the favor.

The initial values ​​are exactly the same as those of humans. The only difference is that she does not have a magic column or a skill column, but an [Ability] column.

Mermaid's Blood

Powerful healing effect

The deeper the object relationship, the stronger the effect

The Mermaid's Ballad

Can create a charming effect through singing

Charm ability increases with level

【Stove Ash Woman】

Transformation magic

・The transformed image changes according to the imagination during the chant, and fails if it lacks specificity.

·Suggested imitation

Chant: "Your seal is mine, and my seal is mine"

·Spell: "Ring the 12 o'clock bell"

These were all of Mary's stats. After Ethan confirmed Mary's stats, he took a look at his own stats, and then saw an extra line of text behind [Secondary Favor].

·Received a permanent "magic power" bonus, quantity: 1

But in terms of numbers, he couldn't see any changes, which meant that this was a hidden bonus value.

Hiding the bonus is good. When Su Mo hides this skill itself, it is impossible for others to detect its true value from the panel.

Although it cannot be treated like this.

"That's it." Ethan took a step or two back, and Mary put down her clothes, but from behind you could see that the tips of her snow-white ears were already completely red.

At the same time, Ethan even felt some of Mary's emotions. At this moment, she seemed to be so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into.

After becoming a human, this kid's sense of shame has increased a lot.

Ethan studied it for a while and found that as long as he didn't concentrate on feeling, he wouldn't be able to understand the other person's emotions. He was not one of those gods who could remain expressionless even when faced with the emotions of his clan members every day.

"Okay, Mary, from this moment on, you are mine." Ethan said calmly, making Mary even more afraid to turn around, while activating the [Transfer Magic].

"Since you want to be my assistant, you must learn the skills required of me."

Before long, Ethan's desk was piled with more than a dozen magic books, all of which he had selected, most of which were prayers.

Transferring magic is really convenient. If you want your followers to learn something, just cram them in and they'll be done. You can slowly improve their proficiency, but first you have to let them learn it.

Become a qualified pastor, little Mary.

Next, Ethan found a suitable therapist's outfit from his family and dressed up little Mary so that she looked presentable.

Although she was still a little nervous, Mary was actually quite excited wearing this dress and holding the magic wand.

She has taken the most important step towards realizing her dream.

The person who became Ethan was beyond her previous expectations, but now she couldn't help but smile when she thought about it.

At this moment, she felt better than ever.

……

When I brought Mary to the training ground, Bell had been knocked to the ground and was almost foaming at the mouth.

"This is?"

"Ah, Captain, well, it's actually all my fault." The thief brother felt a little guilty.

Bale was working very hard during training, and the thief also became serious when he saw it.

Although they are all level 1, the gap between experienced level 1 and newbie level 1 is very, very large.

The result was that Bale practiced until he foamed at the mouth and fainted.

"Mary, try the ability you just learned." Ethan said casually.

"Okay, master."

"Wait, this name—"
