"……call."

Deya took a deep breath. He finally maxed out his experience points before the day when the stars changed, reaching the maximum level for this stage.

If there is not enough time, he will think about continuing to eat Lamia to make up the time.

After looking at his pocket watch and realizing it was time for his appointment with the church, Deya put on his coat and left in a hurry.

……

The Dawn Cathedral, the headquarters of the Dawn Church, is not located in the city of Abrana, but is located in the east outside the city, like a satellite city.

The sacred number of the Dawn Goddess is '3' and her sacred position is 'East', which symbolizes the direction where the sun rises, so it should be built in the east of the city.

The entire Dawn Cathedral covers an area of ​​several square kilometers. This place is not under the jurisdiction of the royal power, and everything is controlled by gods.

As the representative of the Goddess of the Dawn on earth, Pope Corcardi II has the right to interpret the gods and doctrines.

Deya was wearing an elegant religious robe with a 'rising sun' painted on it, which was the emblem of the goddess.

He came to the Dawn Church today to participate in the baptism ceremony and officially become a believer of the Dawn Goddess.

At the same time, he will be canonized by the church and become a priest.

"Sir Angus, hello!"

When Deya's carriage arrived in front of the Dawn Cathedral, he got off the carriage and was surprised to see that the person who came to greet him was actually a cardinal!
This cardinal in particular is no ordinary person. He is only in his forties, but he has already become a cardinal and has been ordered by the Pope to be in charge of the 'Department of the Faithful'.

This means that this cardinal is being trained to be the next Pope, and all popes are promoted from this department.

However, when meeting the cardinal of the Church of Dawn, Deya was not restrained.

The status of both parties is the same.

You are the cardinal of the Church of the Dawn, and I am also the cardinal of the Church of the Darkmoon.

Although I am the only commander of the Dark Moon Church...

"Deya, you are finally here. Come with me to the cathedral. His Holiness the Pope is waiting for you there. He will baptize you personally."

Cardinal Angus greeted Deya warmly.

Due to the conflict between Susaitani and Anglo, the Dawn Church of the two does not belong to the same organization.

Therefore, there are two Dawn Cathedrals in this world.

The Cathedral of Dawn, located in the capital of England, has a history of more than two thousand years and is also the oldest church in the Church of Dawn.

The Cathedral of Dawn in Sussetsane was built only 700 years ago and is relatively younger.

The Dawn Cathedral covers an area of ​​tens of thousands of square meters, and the entire church can accommodate fifty to sixty thousand believers for worship and prayer.

As you enter the parish, the first thing you see in the magnificent square is a huge statue of the goddess of the dawn.

The goddess's face was also blurred, and the craftsman who carved the statue did not dare to do anything blasphemous.

The graceful goddess statue is embracing everything, giving people a sense of gentleness and peace at first glance.

This is completely different from the mysterious and profound feeling of the Dark Moon Goddess statue.

The statue of the goddess faces east. Every morning, the sun rises from behind the goddess. That is also the time for the believers of the Dawn Church to pray.

No matter what time it is, there are believers in the church worshiping God.

Cardinal Angus introduced Deya to the functions of various buildings in the diocese and took him to the cathedral.

Walk up the long steps, cross the majestic door, and enter the cathedral.

Today the cathedral is not open to the public. It has a high dome and many mysterious religious pictures and runes are carved inside.

Just in front of the platform, King Kirkadi II, wearing a triple crown, was waiting with a kind face.

In the cathedral, stood the most devout believers. These devout believers from all walks of life would be the spectators when Deya was baptized and joined the church.

Although Deya spends most of his time at home studying magic, he never goes out.

But he is now very famous in Abranah.

The nobles knew his identity as the Nine-Ring Tower, but of course they didn’t know that Deya was actually just a reserve.

People from the common people have also often seen Deya's name in various newspapers recently, and it has become a topic of conversation for many people.

Undoubtedly, if Deya debuts as an idol now, he will probably get a group of fans because of his fame.

His Holiness the Pope baptized Deya with such fanfare and in the presence of so many people.

In fact, this is an implicit expression of the union between the church and the parliamentary party, and it is also borrowing Deya's reputation at this time to enhance the reputation of the church.

A celebrity who has been frequently on the hot search list recently has joined the Dawn Church, which will serve as a role model for others.

"Your Holiness!"

Deya walked up to the Pope and respectfully performed a noble salute. "Deya Cavendish, are you ready to join the Dawn Church, be baptized, follow the rules set by the goddess for the church, and become a bridge between gods and mortals?"

Kirkadi II said with a kind face.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I am ready and will always follow the Goddess's teachings!"

Deya said with a serious expression.

This time when Deya came to the Dawn Cathedral, he did not bring Patricia's wooden box.

He knew that he would not be in danger here, at least not for the time being.

As a creation of the Dark Moon Goddess, Deya didn't know if there would be any problems when bringing Patricia to the Cathedral of Dawn.

Just in case, it's better not to take her with you.

Accepting the baptism ceremony of the church means that Deya has joined the church system and will become a level 1 priest.

The extraordinary professionals in this world cannot work part-time. Once they initially choose an extraordinary profession, there is no chance to change it.

Only the priest profession is somewhat special.

All people can be baptized in different churches and thus obtain a priest rank.

If a priest has an extraordinary profession, his level cannot be upgraded and his strength cannot be enhanced.

But this priest level means that you have become a believer of God on earth and can preach.

No matter what your profession is, you can always become a missionary.

Deya came to the statue of the goddess in the cathedral and knelt on the ground, lowering his head with a pious look on his face.

"Great Lady of the Morning, may your light shine upon the earth, may your mercy spread throughout the world. You are the rising sun, and you bring true light to this world!"

Pope Corcardi II stood in front of Deya, holding a canon in his hand.

He recited scriptures and prayed devoutly.

As the Pope finished speaking, all the believers in the cathedral bowed their heads, clasped their hands together, and prayed in unison.

"Great Lady of the Morning, may your light shine upon the earth..."

In that holy, magnificent, echoing prayer, Cardinal Angus came before the Pope with a bottle in his hands.

The bottle is transparent, and inside is the church's holy water, shining with a faint golden luster, as warm as the sun.

This is actually just ordinary water, but with the effect of magic added.

Lady Dawn possesses powers in the realms of light and life, and can even cause harm to undead creatures.

Deya was now secretly resentful in his heart that he, a mage from the School of Necromancer, had actually joined the Church of the Goddess of Dawn.

All I can say is that this is a political necessity, and sometimes it is more important than faith.

Deya was not worried that the entry "Cardinal of the Dark Moon Goddess" on his panel would be discovered by the gods.

The Church of Dawn has a secret, a secret that perhaps only Deya and Pope Kirkadi II in front of him know.

She is the goddess of dawn who has completely dominated the faith of this continental island for seven hundred years. This lady who is still granting divine powers to believers has actually fallen long ago!
This secret will become the fuse of the war between England and Sussetani in the near future.

Although he knew that Pope Corcardi II did not have the ability to read minds, Deya still suppressed his thoughts and did not let himself have any wild thoughts.

He closed his eyes and let the holy water pour down on his head.

The Pope came to Deya and gently touched Deya's forehead with his finger.

[You have been baptized by the 'Church of the Dawn Goddess' and have become a priest of the Dawn Goddess]

[You have obtained the level of a level 1 priest (this level cannot be upgraded)]

[You have obtained the 1st level divine spell 'Divine Guidance']

This is the only spell a multi-class priest can obtain.

As the name implies, it is not a technology that God gives you a catheter.

If used by a part-time priest, its function is similar to showing God's teachings to others, and it is a missionary magic.

If used by a true priest, the recipient would receive a bonus to their attribute checks, which would be a very useful ability.

To Deya, this useless magic is not important. What is important is the identity of the 'Priest of the Goddess of Dawn'.

Because he wanted to play the 'Undead Scourge' style, he must have a priest identity, and it can only be the Goddess of Dawn, no other gods will do.

Now, he finally has all the prerequisite elements!
"Deya, from today on, you are the goddess' priest on earth and the bridge between God and man.

I hope you will follow the goddess' teachings and spread her teachings throughout this mundane world."

Kirkadi II said with a smile on his face.

Deya also laughed happily.

Now everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.

……

That night, Deya observed the sky and all the stars seemed to be trying to break free from their restraints and change their positions.

The day when the stars change is coming!
