Chapter 296: Haina's Future (3rd Update)

The old pastor who witnessed his grandfather's death more than ten years ago has passed away long ago.

His son even looks to be in his forties or fifties - as a priest who has mastered the method of sacrificing fire, his appearance shows that his true age must be higher than younger. Maybe he stayed in Eagle Point Village for a long time.

But Mr. Pastor failed to bring much useful information to Aiwass.

Because it hasn't been too long since he accepted his father's position, and he hasn't been exposed to many things yet. He may not know as much as Aivas does today.

The only information he could give was probably the village's tradition about burials.

"There is no cemetery in our village."

While distributing cakes to Aiwass and Lily, the priest replied softly: "All the corpses will be thrown into the swamp, and there will no longer be a unified worship.

"Because remembering and worshiping are both behaviors on the twilight path, and we are just a group of nameless people who have sold their souls - we are not expected during our lifetime, and we will not be remembered after our death. People without names will not have any tombstone."

"Then why do those children have names?"

Aiwass asked a question that had puzzled him for a long time.

The priest just smiled: "We are all nameless souls trapped here, shadows forgotten by the sand clock... But they are different. They are all healthy children."

"...Why on earth did you sell your souls?"

Aiwass asked: "Why does Amber charge such a price?"

For ordinary phantoms, human souls may be a scarce resource. In order to obtain souls, demons can even sign contracts and be driven by others.

But to Pillar God, that doesn't matter at all. After a person dies, his soul will flow to the nine different rivers. It is as natural a resource as the air that humans breathe. No one will pay any price to breathe that mediocre air.

Unless the "air" itself has some special meaning.

——The strangest thing about Aiwass is, why did Amber agree to this kind of deal?

Judging from the twilight power that has filled the village to this day, this deal has not been completely concluded even now. Amber is still providing a steady stream of power, even enough to affect everyone's sense of time here.

But the priest just shook his head.

He held his finger up in front of his mouth. no answer.

Or maybe he can't answer.

So Aiwass could only change the topic and asked insinuatingly: "What about Haina, do you know anything about her?"

Finally, Mr. Pastor said: "Among the batch of newborns in our village, Haina is the most special one. There is no one else."

Indeed, Aiwass thought.

In your village full of twilight power, and with both her biological father and adoptive father adaptable to the path of devotion, she was finally able to be half authoritative and half transcendent...

Neither dedication nor dusk.

"I thought she was going to be a priest, or a blacksmith."

Aiwass lowered his shoulders helplessly, picked up a piece of snack and put it into his mouth without hesitation, and replied incoherently: "But she doesn't seem to have the adaptability to devote herself to the path."

"Yes, because of this, Haina received authoritarian education when she was a child. This also comes from Jacob's suggestion - he told Haina's mother that little Haina has the adaptability to be authoritarian. .

"It was also after that that Haina's mother began to deliberately cultivate Haina's authoritarian heart. It can be said that Mr. Jacobs is indispensable for her to become a supervisor."

The pastor sighed: "And now, Mr. Jacob's grandson has become her friend and was invited to come here... This is probably fate. Destiny is the blood of dusk, and everything in the future has been destined by amber. Engraved in the amber tree, everything is connected.”

"Authoritarian education..."

Aiwass was a little confused.

But he paused and suddenly remembered——

That was the content of their conversation when he and Haina met for the second time and were pushed to the Pelican Bar by Haina.

"-Yes, my family is poor. But my parents have told me since I was a child that I must be an upright person. Follow the law, be loyal to the queen, and be honest to my teachers. Although I have no money, I have never done anything. A petty theft."

"——I will not ask others to be the same as me, because not everyone agrees with the authoritarian way. But I will restrain my own behavior as much as possible. It is not that I am forced by others, but I am happy to do so.

"——Today, I am dedicated to obeying my commander and executing every order he gives within the rules; but if one day, I will be higher than him, then he will also obey me in the same way."

Haina's childish but confident voice sounded from Aiwass's heart.

He took a deep breath and gradually came to his senses.

"...Why didn't I realize it at the time?"

This is the most standard authoritarian education.

The adaptability of the extraordinary person's path is not fixed after birth, but will continue to change. Just like Yanis, Meg before, and Ligeia now.

Family education is the simplest way to change the adaptability of the path. Although it is not useful for everyone, and it cannot be too far away... For example, Isabel is really not suitable for the authoritarian path, but if she wants to switch to the love path through education, it is still okay; similarly, Yulia is on the balanced path, but she is also suitable for wisdom and transcendence.

As long as the appropriate guidance is given, it is often easy to lead them to the designated path when they are still young.

It is somewhat difficult to switch from the dusk path to the authoritarian path.

But the transcendent path is possible.

Moreover, the transcendent path is an illegal path in Avalon. If Haina has a strong adaptability to the transcendent path when she is born, and her parents decide to let her leave Eagle Point Village from the beginning, they can only use various means to change the adaptability of the transcendent path to the authoritarian path...

So, she will receive such a strict authoritarian path education.

In this connection, Aiwas thought of the stories that his grandfather Jacob told Haena when she was a child...

--Carnivores led by the red giant bear and the golden lion ruled the world, and the white horse and the green deer, the herbivores, fought wits and courage, and finally defeated the giant bear and became the new king. And the golden lion was dug out of the belly of the black mole after swallowing it.

This story of "The King on the White Horse" is a metaphor for Arthur's deeds of defeating the High Heaven and becoming the Silver Crown Dragon. This story itself is full of traces of "transcendence", and just recording it has the meaning of rebellion.

Haena has heard many stories from Jacob, but she only remembers this story very deeply.

This shows that the first path adaptability of little Haena is to transcend the path!

Then, Haena's biological father... does he also have the adaptability to transcend the path?

If so, maybe Haena's path impulse is actually inherited from her father!

Maybe his disappearance is closely related to Jacob or Noble Red...

And the common point between him and Haena is that they can both leave Eagle Point Village for a long time.

If his departure is not a "scumbag" act, but a pioneering behavior that only he can do...

Does it mean that only a strong enough "transcendence" power can break through the stagnation and seal of the dusk power in the blood, so as to live a normal life in the outside world?

Ihua immediately understood why he had never seen Haena in the original game.

-Because Haena will only stay as an apprentice supervisor for half a year.

After she graduates, she will return to Eagle Point Village like now.

From then on, she will never go back to Glass Island again-because she can never go back again.

She will either awaken the adaptability of the dusk path or awaken her transcendent nature. Either possibility will make her temperament change drastically and no longer like the work of the Supervisory Bureau.

So, are there similar BOSS or forces in the game?

-There really are.

And this time it's not a BOSS.

In this version, there is a separatist demon rebel "Hyena Gang" in Avalon, resisting the colonial rule of the Star Antimony Kingdom.

They are a group of demonized former supervisors. They swept around with a large group of undead hounds, attacking mines, bridges and railways controlled by the Star Antimony people, robbing caravans, and assassinating the "new nobles" who defected to the Star Antimony people. Transform the people you killed into undead again.

Avalon, controlled by the Star Antimony people, lost control of the Griffin Brigade and the Eye of Avalon, which made it difficult for them to accurately control local intelligence like Avalon today. The Hyena Gang hid in the most desolate places, and the people of Avalon helped to hide their tracks. Therefore, although they were repeatedly attacked, they were difficult to be completely wiped out.

The leader of the Hyena Gang is a tall and straight beauty, "Nameless".

She is high-spirited and full of confidence in her words and deeds, but she has a lot of scars on her body-not because of the scars left by not receiving timely treatment after the battle. Scars, as a memory of wounds, are themselves a powerful symbol of dusk.

"Nameless" has a waist-high ponytail and dim yellow pupils. Her clothes are tattered, revealing two arms and one leg, and she has a bright and handsome smile. She has the power of the three paths of authority, transcendence, and dusk, and is very popular among players and the people of Avalon.

They are considered half friendly units.

Because the Hyena Gang has "faction favor" that can be brushed, the Hyena Set purchased in the faction store is the highest-level set commonly used by demon and necromancer players.

It was not until the founding of Camelot that Nameless served as a pioneer in the attack on Shadow Tiansi and died in a direct attack from Shadow Tiansi. The Hyena Gang eventually fell apart, and the remaining NPCs who were still familiar became the police guards of Camelot.

... Now thinking back, this should be Haina from another world line.

It's not Aiwass's fault that he didn't recognize her - the name, hairstyle, eye color, temperament, and profession are all different, and nothing is the same except for the figure... How can you let me recognize her!

And maybe Haena has a low self-esteem because she is always stared at because of her good figure. She usually hunches her chest a little. She is basically nothing like the big sister who is generous, elegant, and aggressive——

Evans shook his head and dispelled his belated thoughts.

Her father's matter... must be told to Haena first.

Thinking like this, he said goodbye to the pastor.

When Aiwass went out, he found that it was already dusk outside.

As soon as he went out, his face changed suddenly——

——Why not go back first?

But at this moment, Aiwass suddenly stopped.

Because the pastor was responsible for receiving people from other villages, his house was near the entrance of the village and very close to the path into the village.

But now, Aiwass heard a group of people shouting excitedly and rudely from the entrance of the village.

He frowned slightly, pulled Lily back half a step and hid in the pastor's house.

Sure enough, not long after.

Then a group of people in red robes rushed in——

Today is an update of 8,000 words! (Chest up)

Suddenly hardworking, writing from getting up to now——

Tomorrow will still be normal update (tired to stick out tongue)
