Chapter 536: Chapter 429 Praise the Great “Sir Bonfire”._2 Chapter 536: Chapter 429 Praise the Great “Sir Bonfire”._2 All of these matters are of great importance.

As for the rest, such things as refugees, slaves fleeing here, are actually matters of little consequence.

Though I don’t know why the “Bonfire” Church values lowborns so highly, even treating them better than the Church of Light, it doesn’t matter.

They’re just inferiors after all…

If they’re given something, then so be it.

In this world, what is noble consists only of those extraordinary forces in possession of certain means and the nobility, not some insignificant underlings.

What could more commoners do, anyway?

Certainly, these commoners couldn’t overthrow them, could they?

It’s simply impossible.

Just like now, some refugees see them and do not humbly kneel aside, but rather some even dare to boldly stare at them, clearly not taking them seriously. Normally, they should have been whipped.

However, because of the “Bonfire” Church, they didn’t say anything.

This isn’t cowardice, but rather… when in a foreign land, one must always respect local customs.

For now, the members of the “Bonfire” Church seem very mysterious; whether they have extraordinary powers or not is mostly invisible, and one can’t discern their true strength.

And as for divination methods…

A member of the “Earth and Nature Rebirth” Church couldn’t help but recall an experience from a few days ago.

A venerated “Earth Sage” had performed a divination for them, and on the crystal, the number “3” appeared.

At that time, the situation was unclear…

They proceeded with the next step of the divination.

Then appeared the number “2”…

Still unclear, the final number became “1”.

Following that, a bolt of lightning from nowhere struck fiercely.

At the point of impact, a fire instantly ignited, sweeping away everything in the divination ritual site—yes, this flame was strange; it didn’t burn things, but like a robber, it took away most of the valuable items.

Fortunately, aside from falling into a special emotional chaos, most people had no other problems.

You have to understand, that was a sacred land of the forest, yet the adversary could come and go as they pleased…

This time, they had come to find out if there was any further blame from this side.

But all along the way here, it seemed there had been no targeting.

This made them wonder if there was a possibility of redeeming the stolen items…

“┗|｀O′|┛ Wow~~”

A strange roar came from afar. Some people turned their heads to look and, with their superhuman vision, saw on a barren piece of land in the distance, a flesh ball with two large heads wildly swinging its power, pounding on the slightly stiff ground with punch after punch, causing dust to fly…

It seemed to be… loosening the soil?

“It’s the ‘Holy Beast’ of the ‘Bonfire’ Church,” a knight explained softly.

Hearing this, people nodded. They had already gotten a rough understanding of this black, two-headed monster from earlier intelligence…

But aside from these things, what surprised them even more was that giant mechanical life form that intermittently emitted a deafening noise. This being was somewhat beyond their understanding.

In this territory, it seemed there were noticeable changes every week.

There were also a few people whispering that this thing resembled the creations of an evil church that worshiped the “God of the Shattered Gear”, an entity that had been expunged by all the churches a long time ago.

But recalling the city ruins that remained in a “hollow” state to this day, they were convinced.

The “Bonfire” Church was certainly not an evil church…

At the least, they hadn’t shown this aspect, and they had successfully prevented the descent of an Evil God. How could such a force possibly be evil?

Meanwhile, seeing several individuals who appeared to be members of the “Bonfire” Church approaching, they quickly put on smiles.

“We are here to visit Mr. Bonfire’s Agent…”

…

On the sixth day, Colin emerged from the small chapel with a somewhat haggard face, concluding his training.

“My combat power and skills have become much more proficient, and not as crude as when I first advanced to D Level. That flame, which burns my own essence and requires intense concentration, can now be released quickly…”

“Oh, and I learned a ‘Flash’ skill. Combined with ‘Time Stop’, it’s basically instant kill…”

Taking a deep breath, Colin quietly sensed his own condition.

He felt that the “tuition fee” he paid was well worth it, for under normal circumstances, it wouldn’t be easy to find someone like her willing to teach things meticulously.

Especially that “Nightmare Lantern,” which made each of his battles a life-and-death struggle.

Although each death brought a strong sense of palpitation,

it wasn’t a big problem…

Compared to the Saintess, the style of C Level Elder Brother shifted entirely, providing scornful remarks on weaknesses, giving a certain direction, while striking with heavy punches, targeting specifically…

But he wouldn’t discuss more detailed things.

His original self in that “Ghost Train” had a good impression, but this copy… was a bit stiff.

Although there were no issues with his strength…

Sometimes Colin still felt like the other party was snickering like a girly ghost, uttering taunts like “Is that all? Is that all?”

Of course, this also related to the fact that the other’s essence belonged to a certain kind of AI simulation.

As his thoughts dispersed, Colin touched his pocket and took out a golden Sun Mark.

When he acquired it…

His brain’s operational speed increased.

This time, the Saintess custom-made this one for that flame technique of his, which required tremendous energy to control. It was designed to enhance his mental capacity fully, preventing him from falling into energy exhaustion…

“With the tuition fees paid, I’ve got two Golden Marks already. This one certainly earns back its cost, and then there’s Bone Spur and the Shield Badge of Fairness and Justice, plus the teaching. It feels like I’m getting all this from her for free…”
