Chapter 913! Priestess
Chapter 913! Priestess
……
At the end of the main road in Taber Village is the Temple of Mafa, the Earth Mother Goddess, a white building made of marble.
The snow-white building sparkled in the early spring sunshine, and this scene made every believer who came to worship stop and watch, and then they entered the temple from the entrance with excitement and sincerity.
On the main road, Shen Ye and the dwarf Jim walked "side by side" towards the temple not far away. It seemed that the white-bearded dwarf felt that the young man Shen Ye was very much to his liking, and he even mentioned his past to him.
"Nice is a beautiful and kind lady. In the mining accident seven years ago, Ms. Nis personally went to the scene to rescue me when I was seriously injured. Therefore, I respect her very much."
"But at the same time, Ms. Niss is also a pitiful mother, because right after she left the temple, her daughter, Lelia, was kidnapped by a mysterious person... I always thought it was my fault. If it weren't for me, Ms. Niss's daughter wouldn't have gotten into trouble."
"That's why I stayed here and became Ms. Nisi's assistant to atone for my sins, but Ms. Nisi never thought so and she never blamed me, which made me feel very guilty."
"So I have a new plan. I plan to leave here in a few days and find Ms. Nisi's daughter."
After saying this, the dwarf Jim's tone changed from sadness to determination. Given the dwarf's character, he was determined to achieve this goal.
Listening to the dwarf's words, Shen Ye smiled slightly and then deliberately asked: "Jim, where are you going first?"
"Saxony, a border village, I have a friend there, his name is Slein, he is a magician..." Jim answered honestly, then looked up at Shen Ye and continued: "Speaking of which, Shen, you just said that you are an adventurer, how about it, are you interested in going together?"
Shen Ye was waiting for this sentence, and nodded: "Okay, it's a bit boring to go on adventures alone anyway."
"Yes, it's more fun to adventure in a group, and it's also very dangerous to adventure alone... Shen, what's your profession?" Jim said, and suddenly asked again.
"As for profession, I don't know either, because I know a little bit of everything. Magic, tricks, swordsmanship, physical skills, anyway, it's very diverse." Now that Shen Ye has the abilities of all three professions, warrior, mage and priest, he naturally answered like this.
"It sounds like a ranger or a bard, but that's not good. Knowing everything means being proficient in nothing. You should specialize in one profession. Why not become a warrior like me? You are brave and domineering, and you can also please girls. After all, girls like strong men." The white-bearded dwarf patted his chest hard, making a thumping sound: "Just like me."
Someone like you can only attract female dwarves... After taking a glance, Shen Ye shook his head: "I'm fine this way."
"Okay, as long as you like it." Although the dwarf was stubborn, he was not the kind of person who talked a lot, so Jim did not continue to persuade him.
As they chatted, the two of them had already arrived at the entrance of the temple. After greeting the young priestess at the entrance, he asked, "Is Ms. Niss here?"
"Priest Niss is blessing the believers in the main hall now." The young priest said: "There are a lot of people these days."
"Because spring is here!" Jim laughed, and then said to Shen Ye: "Shen, let's go over and take a look too."
"Ok!"
Afterwards, the two of them walked through the wide corridor at the entrance of the temple and soon arrived at the main hall of the temple.
At this time, on the high platform of the main hall, a holy middle-aged woman in a white robe was telling something to the believers below...
The dwarf Jim whispered to Shen Ye: "She is Ms. Niss, the priestess of this temple."
Shen Ye nodded, then frowned and said: "This lady doesn't seem to be in good health."
Even without watching the plot, Shen Ye could see that the priestess was in poor health.
"Because Ms. Niss was one of the heroes who participated in the war against the demons. In order to seal the demons, she had to pray to the goddess Marfa, and the goddess Marfa responded to her. However, because the goddess had almost fallen into an eternal sleep, she could not directly exert her divine power, and finally could only possess Ms. Niss's body." Jim sighed, "The power of God is so great, and Ms. Niss consumed too much of her vitality, so she is in poor health and looks very old. In fact, she was very beautiful when she was young."
Jim paused here, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, he continued, "It is precisely because Ms. Nisi is in poor health that I want to find her daughter as soon as possible."
Shen Ye glanced at him and asked in a tone as if he knew nothing: "Then do you know the whereabouts of her daughter?"
"I don't know, but it doesn't matter. We can find her if we keep looking." The white-bearded dwarf smiled and said, "Dwarves are not short of patience... Well, at least I am."
Then he heard the priestess quiet down, and then he said to Shen Ye: "Come with me, let's go to the back hall, Ms. Nis will go there to rest."
As the name suggests, the back hall is naturally behind the main hall and can be reached by just turning a corner. When Shen Ye followed the white-bearded dwarf over, he happened to see the priestess drinking water next to the table.
Seeing the stranger next to Jim, the priestess was slightly stunned, but soon returned to normal. After putting down the cup in her hand, she said: "Jim, thank you for your hard work. You have to travel a long way."
"It's okay. I'm as confident in my physical strength as I am in my strength." Jim said, "It's Ms. Nisi who has been working hard these days."
"It's okay, I just opened my mouth to talk." Niss shook her head: "Also, Jim, I don't know how many times I have told you, just call me Niss."
"Sorry, I'm used to it."
"I'm very frustrated by your habit. After all, we've known each other for so many years, and we can be considered friends." Nis sighed, and only then did she focus her eyes on Shen Ye: "Is he your friend?"
"A new friend, whom I just met. When I met him, he was almost cheated by a profiteer. He sold him a sword worth only one silver coin for five silver coins. How could that piece of junk be worth five silver coins..." Jim's tone became irritable as he spoke.
"After all, you are a master of casting, and everything you make is exquisite..." Niss smiled, and then looked at Shen Ye with soft eyes: "Hello, my name is Niss, nice to meet you."
"My name is Shen Ye, Ms. Nis." Shen Ye nodded slightly to Nis: "Likewise, I am also very happy to meet you."
