Wizard: Surviving in the Steam Age with Points for Demon Hunter

Chapter 44 Your Majesty

"Wein, it seems you don't know much about Dawn's deeds?" Carly looked at him suspiciously. "Then how did you embark on the path of faith in Dawn?"

"This is the path of faith..."

Without bothering to search for the forbidden item, Wei En's mind raced, and he blurted out, "Yes, it was that day, that night."

"That night? When... oh, you mean that day?"

Carly's face turned bright red, like a red apple, and even her fair neck turned pink.

"Yes, it was the favored one that night. That favored one was fair-skinned... cough cough, her divine figure has been etched in my mind ever since."

As Wayne spoke, he became more and more fluent, as if he were truly moved by the sacred ceremony, looking devoutly at the sculpture of dawn: "Praise be to dawn, for letting me see that scene."

"Is that so?"

"Yes, I really wish I could meet her. I would thank her in person for her guidance..."

Carly turned her head away, avoiding his gaze, and stammered, "Actually, I..."

"Carly, why is your face red?"

Seeing her expression, Wei En asked in confusion.

"No, no," Carly shook her head and said, "I, I'm fine, I just..."

"Do you also wish to see that favored one?"

Wei En stroked his chin, recalling the figure from that night... He had long, silver-white hair, his eyes were closed, and he looked very mature.

In comparison, she is about the same size as Carly and looks to be about the same age as Lacey.

"Yes, yes."

Carly nodded hastily, clutching her chest, and said, "I also hope to become a chosen one, so that I can get closer to dawn..."

"I see," Wayne smiled and said, "I believe Carly can definitely do it."

"Um,"

Carly breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't ask any more questions, touching her still slightly flushed cheeks. "Let's go out. Didn't you say you had to go to work later?"

How could she possibly bring herself to ask?

That look was too revealing...

"it is good."

As soon as Wayne turned around, he saw a tall, slender man appear at the entrance of the chapel.

He wore a silver-white hat embroidered with gold patterns. The hat was triangular, with the pointed part obscuring his face, and two feathers were stuck in the brim.

He wore a mask that covered his entire upper body, revealing only his sharply defined chin.

He wore a long golden robe, which, unlike the loose robes worn by the guards in the main hall, fit him perfectly and looked extremely magnificent.

A black cloak was draped over his back, and his shoulders were covered in fur.

He wore a black short jacket underneath, somewhat similar to the uniform of the Secret Service, with a double-breasted design.

When Carly saw him appear, she asked awkwardly, "Melbel, what brings you here?"

"Your Majesty,"

The mysterious and handsome man knelt on one knee, placed his fingers together between his eyebrows in a gesture of respect, and said, "Bishop Andrews, I invite you to the City Council Hall."

Wayne looked at Carly in surprise, "Your Majesty, Bishop, Council Chamber... Sister Carly?"

If he still can't find anything unusual when these words are combined, he would really be a fool.

Could it be that the person favored by the saint that night... was her?

"It's...it's what you think," Carly blushed again, "Actually, I...I was the chosen one that night."

She had just lied and was immediately exposed; now she wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground...

I hope Leon Lai can forgive her and pardon her.

Wayne opened his mouth, "But her hair is..."

He clearly didn't see Carly that night. The hair color, the looks, the figure—so white and big…

"Well, I don't know either, I..."

"Your Majesty, leave this to me. Please proceed to the council chamber immediately," the person at the door interrupted, still kneeling on one knee.

Carly glanced at him, then at Wayne, who looked on with surprise, and bit her lip, saying, "I'll explain when I get back, okay?"

Wayne took a deep breath. "...Okay."

The facts were undeniable, leaving him no choice but to believe them.

But he thought about more—

If that's the case, then any extraordinary person he encounters in the future might be completely different.

Wouldn't he have to carefully discern and be cautious about everything he sees and hears, because it might not be true?

"Well, then I'll be leaving now. Don't be late for work."

After saying that, Carly ran towards the door, her face flushed with embarrassment.

This is so embarrassing, so incredibly embarrassing.

Although many people saw her at the time, no more than ten people in the entire city of Castor knew her true identity.

Most of them were elders from the Dawn Church, except for him...

After Carly left, Melbell, who was standing by the door, stood up and calmly asked, "A new believer?"

Wayne nodded subconsciously. "I should leave too. I heard from Sister Carly that His Majesty said only devout believers are allowed to enter here, and I'm not one yet."

He was still a little unaccustomed to Carly going from a kind girl next door to a favored one.

Especially this Your Majesty, he has never addressed anyone else that way.

"It's alright. Under the glorious light of dawn, you will become a devout believer and—a loyal guardian."

Melbell's gaze pierced through the mask as she looked at Wayne, a golden light flashing within her. "Bruno." (Holy.)

"Me? A guardian? I don't..."

Just as Wei En was about to try to fool everyone, everything in front of him suddenly turned white, and there was nothing else in his sight.

"The night will pass, but the dawn will endure."

"May the light of the Lord of Dawn forever shine upon the world, and may all things be good..."

"May you have devout faith, be faithful to the dawn, and protect the holy favor..."

May you be brave, wise, and kind...

A sacred and magnificent hymn rang in his ears.

What is this?

But before he could think it through, his consciousness faded, leaving only one thought in his mind: save...

Melbell calmly watched Wayne stand there, motionless, until she was certain that he had been corrupted by the Dawn Faith, before turning and leaving.

"The saint is sacred and inviolable."

It is not for the unclean to touch—all uncleanliness must be purified!

……

……

At this moment, in the Dumitru district, at the Logistics and Investigation Department of the Secret Investigation Division.

Marco stared wide-eyed at Tina, who had suddenly collapsed to the ground, and cried out, "Lassie, Lassie!"

"You're shouting so loudly... Tina?!"

Lacey rushed over to check on the white-haired girl. "Unconscious? When did she become like this?"

"Just now, she suddenly stood up," Marco said anxiously. "I saw her open her mouth, and I thought she was going to say something, and then I saw her fall to the ground."

"Oh no, something must have happened to Wayne!"

Lacey's expression turned serious. She picked up Tina and rushed out of the office.

Marco followed closely, "So what do we do now?"

"Go find Yegor."
