Chapter 22 Chapter 22 An opportunity comes right to your doorstep!
"If Your Highness hadn't told me, I wouldn't have noticed that Acesi and Cecil look quite similar."
"The two of them should be about the same age."
"Could it be that these two are really brothers who have been separated from each other?"
.
Asesi looked at Cecil. For some reason, he felt dislike for Cecil from the bottom of his heart, and he had the illusion that something had been taken away from him.
At this moment, seeing the other person lose his gentleness, there is a secret sense of relief.
But after hearing Lu Chengshuang's words, he glanced at Cecil with disgust in his eyes. How could this knight with only a seventh-level cultivation level be his brother?
Cecil: “…”
How could he be so smart at this time? Although the two are related, they are not blood relatives.
He calmly denied Lu Chengshuang's words: "Your Highness, I am an orphan." I just found this body, so how could I have parents?
"What a coincidence, me too." Asesi on the side also agreed. Every Dark Saint is an orphan. It is absolutely impossible for him to have a brother, so there is absolutely no possibility that the two of them have any relationship.
But just like Lu Chengshuang said, Asesi discovered that he and Cecil were really similar in some ways.
Forget it, don’t think too much about it.
"I heard the time for the blessing has been set."
Asesi still remembers the scene of his blessing thirty years ago.
In the Dark Church, the Son of God was not revered by everyone. Because of the fate of previous Dark Sons, the Dark Church's blessing on him was more like a mission.
Although the scene was grand, it was not worth looking forward to.
Just like the Pope of their Dark Church, he is now nearly 400 years old and has seen off three Holy Sons. In two years, he may also see off the fourth one.
Most of the believers who believe in the Dark God and become followers of the Dark Church have somewhat fickle personalities.
The blessing of the Dark God is not as effective as the blessing of the Light God, so even if the number of believers increases significantly every year, it attracts more believers with psychological problems, and these believers come quickly and leave even faster.
Therefore, the reputation of the Dark Church among ordinary people is very average.
Let’s look at the Holy See of Light. Not to mention the coming-of-age ceremony a few days ago, where all the gods were present to bless, even the blessing ceremony in two days will be held with exceptional grandeur.
He still remembered the day of his coming-of-age ceremony, which was held at the Dark Church. Even their own deity, the Dark God, was absent. He simply whispered in his ear that his strength was too weak, then infused his body with divine power, forcibly raising his cultivation levels from a level 7 magician to a level 6 warrior, up to 10 and 9.
Not to mention the difference in treatment between the Sons of God, even between gods, the God of Light is indeed more gentle than their own God of Darkness.
Moreover, he still couldn't understand why the Dark God chose him as the Son of God.
When he first became the Son of God, Asesi had thought that he was the special one, but until he learned from the Pope and the elders that all the Sons of Darkness looked the same, this thought never appeared again.
Although I don’t know what the Dark God looks like, I feel a sense of rejection deep in my heart.
Because of disgust, on the day of his coming-of-age ceremony, when the Dark God made that request, he agreed without hesitation.
And now, looking at Lu Chengshuang standing by, he truly felt that he was the recipient of countless favors. Furthermore, compared to the blessing of the Dark God, the blessing of the Light God was far more effective, which was why so many people had gathered in Duke City in just a few days.
Now that the blessing time has been confirmed, more people will come to try their luck through the city and teleportation array in the next two days.
Lu Chengshuang didn't understand why the two men were so hostile to each other after only meeting a few times. However, after hearing what Asesi said, he quickly replied, "The blessing time has been set. It will be in three days."
Asesi stopped looking at Xisel, who made him feel uncomfortable, and looked at Lu Chengshuang beside him. "That's perfect. On the day of blessing, I will definitely find a good spot to receive your blessing. But blessing is also very tiring. If you need any help, you can come to me. After all, I have more experience in this matter than you."
"Your Highness, don't worry about that. As you said, blessing is a very tiring task, but the God of Light is reluctant to let our Highness suffer. When the blessing comes, I will definitely take action, so Your Highness, don't worry."
Cecil directly rejected Asesi's kindness and continued to press the issue, adding: "Your Highness Asesi, if you have the time, you should think carefully about how to deal with the situation two years from now. I think you haven't gathered all the items you need yet."
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Lu Chengshuang quickly spoke: "Cesare." His tone was a little heavy, as if with a hint of warning.
However, Lu Chengshuang did not say much. After all, he was the knight who had taken care of him for more than ten years. It was impossible for him to offend Cecil just for someone he had just known for two days.
This was the first time Lu Chengshuang had seen Cecil so aggressive. He had always thought Cecil had a good temper and was very stable. When he was a child, he would just agree with a smile when asked to do something unreasonable.
Now he looks inexplicably strong, which is completely different from his usual expression and attitude when he is with him. Moreover, his aura is much stronger than that of Vanrod.
Is Cecil hiding something from him?
Asesi is still here now, so I can only wait until I get back and ask him about it.
"Sorry." After all, Cecil was one of his own. Although what he had just said was very rude and infuriating, he, as the master, was the only one who had to apologize.
"We have something to do in the afternoon, so we won't disturb you anymore. We'll leave first." With a slightly apologetic look and tone, Lu Chengshuang said goodbye and left the box.
Asesi watched the two men leave, still thinking about what Cecil had said before.
Cecil's identity is really suspicious, and few people know what will happen in two years.
Even in their Dark Church, only the Pope had some vague guesses, but he would not publicize such things. It was even worse for the Light Church. How could a small knight like Cessel know something that even their Pope Vanrod didn't know?
Especially the items he collected, even the guards around him didn’t know what they were used for.
But Cecil understood.
Maybe he could give it another try next time. Thinking about the item he needed in the original plan, if it was really the person he guessed, then it would be an opportunity that came right to his doorstep.
.
Lu Chengshuang took Cecil out of the restaurant. There was no expression on his face at this moment, and he looked very calm, but Cecil could feel that Lu Chengshuang was angry with him.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry." It had been a long time since he had admitted his mistake like this. After all, he had been with Lu Chengshuang for a long time, and Cecil knew very well what Lu Chengshuang would be angry about. He was impulsive just now.
Gods don't actually have too many emotions, but their current bodies are human bodies after all, so they are affected by these emotions.
Lu Chengshuang listened to Cecil's apology, stopped, and stood aside: "This is the first time I've seen you so hostile to someone. Before saying those words, you should first recognize your own identity."
Cecil didn't hear the disparagement in Lu Chengshuang's words: "So?"
"Don't you even look at your own strength? His guards are all level 8 warriors, and Asesi himself is a holy magician. If you talk to him like that, he can destroy you with just a flick of his little finger."
He stretched out his finger and poked Cecil's forehead fiercely: "You are overestimating your own abilities."
Cecil: “…” This was the second time he felt that he had not made the right choice when choosing his body.
The physical qualifications of the one he picked randomly were too poor, and Lu Chengshuang said that his strength was too low.
Looking at Cecil who was lowering his head, Lu Chengshuang thought that these words had hit him hard. He patted Cecil on the shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry. After two days of blessing, I will find you the best position and let the God of Light cheat for you. It will definitely be no problem."
"Don't you pray to the God of Light every day? As such a devout believer, you will definitely agree to my request."
Cecil listened to what Lu Chengshuang said and didn't know how to respond for a moment.
It seems that Lu Chengshuang will only be disappointed.
The difficulty of him leveling up is even greater than the difficulty of Lu Chengshuang discovering his identity.
"Your Highness, my qualifications are limited, so please don't have too high expectations." Prepare Lu Chengshuang mentally first to avoid being too disappointed later.
.
For the next two days, Cecil and Lu Chengshuang continued to play in Duke City, and they did not meet Asesi again.
As the time of blessing approaches, more and more people come to Duke City.
Even the neighboring cities of Duke City were gradually filled with people who wanted to receive blessings.
This blessing is not limited to Duke City. After all, it is a blessing on behalf of God, and the scope of the blessing will be very large, including the entire Duke Empire.
Only in Duke City, which is at the center of the blessing, can the effect of receiving the blessing be best. The farther away, the less benefit you can get from the blessing.
Finally, the day of blessing has arrived.
The blessing time was chosen in the afternoon.
During these two days, Cecil accompanied Lu Chengshuang to visit Duke City during the day.
In the evening, Lu Chengshuang stayed in the room with Da Jinren again to play single-player games.
The schedule is very tight, and I go to bed late and get up late.
If you choose to bless in the morning, Lu Chengshuang won't be able to get up at all.
Lu Chengshuang didn't get up until around noon. The difficult thing was that the big golden man was also there today. He hadn't left since last night. On the contrary, Cecil, maybe because the God of Light was there, hadn't been seen since last night.
Since he couldn’t see anyone, Lu Chengshuang could only put on his clothes by himself.
Today, he was to be blessed, and he was wearing the rather elaborate garments specially made for him by the Vatican. So Lu Chengshuang dressed himself, very slowly.
The big golden man admired it for a while before slowly walking over and saying, "I'll help you."
Each piece of clothing and each decoration was made with great skill.
Lu Chengshuang felt very familiar: "It doesn't look like this is your first time helping me put on clothes."
