Chapter 113: Far Up the Cold Mountain Stone Path (Part 1)
"Hey? There are guests." Not long after, the door suddenly opened, and a young man dressed very well with a black-haired woman walked in. He saw Sonia sitting at the table and said in surprise. Looking at the man in front of him, Sonia always felt that this not strong man should not live here, but should be a scholar in a certain library.
"Dear, you are back, please wait a moment, lunch will be ready soon." The young woman's voice came from the kitchen.
"It's okay, don't worry." The young man smiled softly and then asked, "Eureka, can you introduce our guests?"
"My name is Sonya, I am a wanderer. For some reasons, I hope to find a place to settle down." After coming in, Sonya did not introduce herself, so she answered first this time, but she asked for something to be reserved. As for what "some reasons" are, it seems that there is no need to say it explicitly.
"We also hope to have a neighbor." The young man said with a gentle smile.
The next day, the young husband went out again, and the young wife claimed to build a cottage for Sonia. Of course, Sonia was skeptical, but soon Sonia understood why the young couple lived in this remote place.
"Please don't be surprised." The young wife said so.
Then, in Sonya's puzzled eyes, the young wife began to sing. Her singing was beautiful, as if it was some kind of aria, but it was obvious that singing was not the purpose, and this was the way the young wife built a house. As she sang, the trees around her rose up one after another, shattering in the air, forming materials such as wooden pillars and wooden boards. The open space without trees was constantly compacted by an invisible hand. Finally, the materials fell down one after another and combined into a small wooden house without glass.
(Glass first appeared in Rome in the fourth century and was popularized in the twelfth century. Although some of this article does not conform to history, it is a fan after all...)
"It's so simple," the young wife said apologetically, "My husband will install glass for you when he comes back at noon, and I will make some simple furniture for you in a while."
‘So that’s it. Are those furniture that are not gorgeous but carefully made, actually from the hands of this young wife?’ Sonya thought.
"Do you... just believe me like that?" Sonia asked this question by some reason.
"Miss Sonia, you are also a person with special power, right?" the young wife said with a smile. "As a person with special power, we certainly know your pain, so we won't say anything about trust and give you the best of our ability to help you."
Since that's the case, what else can I say? Sonia lived here. Three months later, with the help of her young wife, Sonia successfully gave birth to a healthy baby boy, who was named Ralph by Sonia.
Time, when you don't pay attention, it's like this. In a blink of an eye, more than twenty years have passed, and Ralph has grown into a handsome young man, and Sonya has trained him early. Of course, there are some young couples that have made great contributions to this. After more than twenty years of dating, Sonya has already put down her guard and told the secrets of her family... Jack and the others.
"Swoosh--bang!"
In the clearing ground in the distance, the whip kept ringing. It was Yuriko (Roman sound Eureka) training for Ralph. Yuriko used her mind power to control the flying objects to continuously impact Ralph, and Ralph kept knocking these flying objects with her whip, and of course, some flash movements were indispensable.
As a mother, Sonia stood not far away, looking at her son who was practicing hard, her pride was beyond words. More than 20 years of time did not deprive her of beauty, but instead gave her a bit of maturity. However, time always took away something. Now, Sonia can no longer wield the holy whip she passed down from her family.
"Sister Sonia!"
"Oh? It's Jack." Sonya turned around and came, another person who had not changed his appearance for more than 20 years. That was Jack. Sonya was just a little surprised about the "abnormal" phenomenon of Jack and his wife, but when she thought of the more "strange" power of the two, she felt relieved.
"Sister Sonya, I have almost studied these things, and now the original items are returned." Jack said, taking out a necklace with a cross, a double-edged axe-shaped ornament, a silver knife, an exquisite crystal bottle, and a silver pocket watch and handed it to Sonya.
"How is the research?" As a result, these things were closed separately, Sonya seemed to be very interested in asking.
"The role and power of these things are relatively easy to understand. The biggest gain this time is to roughly understand what the holy power and dark power are." Jack replied, "The so-called great dark power is just a special energy that can absorb the surrounding energy and convert it into one's own. So as long as there is a little seed, the dark power will grow infinitely.
The holy power is just the opposite. It is an extremely powerful and highly concentrated energy. As long as this power reaches a certain level, it can easily dispel dark power, because the transformation ability of dark power is also limited, and once it exceeds this limit, it will quickly dissipate."
"Then, what does this have to do with these holy artifacts?" Sonia continued.
"After my research, your four holy weapons are not actually complete holy weapons, because... they use holy power when attacking, but the conditions for activation are dark powers." Jack replied, "So, now when the dark forces are dormant, these holy weapons cannot be activated."
"It sounds quite reasonable," Sonia nodded, "But with these remarks, if those people in the church know, it's enough to put you on the stolen stand?"
"So, compared to the profession of doctor, I should be a heretic scholar." Jack shrugged.
"That's right, so you can become a couple with Eureka." Sonia said lightly, "If I hadn't lived with you for more than ten years and knew you well, I would definitely think Eureka was a banshees."
Sonia actually said this without any insulting. Her personality is actually like this. The more familiar the person she is, the more she is, the more she is, and she is right. When Eureka first came to this world, she discovered that singing could allow her to use her power better, but in this case, she was indeed very similar to a banshee.
"There are some rumors outside recently, such as the resurrected dead people, the ghouls in the cemetery, etc. It seems that the dark forces are about to rise again." As if they don't want to continue this topic, Jack talked about something else.
"I know," Sonia smiled, and then changed the subject. "Although I can no longer use the Holy Whip now, I still have the ability to sense the power of darkness, but I am not going to let Ralph set out so early. After all, as a woman, I am very cautious."
In fact, in the past ten years, Jack has studied Sonia's equipment all over the past ten years. In addition to those holy tools, Jack also studied the ancestral holy whip of the Belmont family. According to Jack's research, this holy whip seems to be able to exert its strongest power only in the hands of the Belmont family, because in addition to physical attacks and holy power attacks, it can defeat the vampire with infinite recovery ability.
However, this kind of soul attack is not without cost, that is, it will consume the user's soul power while attacking, so Ralph only uses an ordinary leather whip when practicing, so Sonia is only in her early forties now, but she can no longer use the holy whip - if she uses it again, it will really kill people.
Back to the topic, because of someone's scrupulousness, Ralph, who was supposed to be a savior, is still nestled in the mountains and preparing, but humans are a very tough creature. If this tough quality is present in a few people, people generally call this person a brave man.
Gulant Danatis, a resident of Transylvania area, is a famous local thief. Because his hometown was ravaged by the demons and the undead legion, the agile thief took his usual flying knife and went to the Demon Castle alone. Although he entered the timing tower with his agility, as a mortal, he was not Dracula's opponent. Not only was he defeated in a few seconds, he was also transformed into the flea male king by Dracula using dark magic to guard the timing tower.
Sefa Fernandez, a member of the great magician family to which the church belongs, was a genius who was twenty years old and was commissioned by the church. Sefa went to the Castle of Demons to fight vampires, but unfortunately, he encountered a cyclops with extremely high magic resistance in the forest outside the city. Although he fought hard, the enemy's restraint was too strong and he was eventually defeated and turned into a stone statue in the forest.
The brave are the essence of human beings. Since it is the essence, there will not be too many. Moreover, there were very few humans in Europe in the fifteenth century. Therefore, after these brave men were speechless, human beings really felt a little desperate. However, because of this, people finally remembered the Belmont family, but...
The Holy See, the leaders of human beings at that time, of course they knew the glorious deeds of the Belmont family. It is precisely because of this that they found it difficult to deal with it. As a hero who once saved the world, he was expelled by the people she saved when he needed help the most. Anyone would feel very uncomfortable with this experience, right?
"I'll go and invite them back in person." The Pope suddenly said while everyone was at a loss.
This of course was opposed by almost everyone.
"Since we already know that we have made a mistake, we cannot let the mistake continue." In the face of opposition from everyone, the Pope said this.
