Chapter 225: Loo threat
“Hey, nah bad haven't I seen ye soination…”
Roland shi+fted hi to hide his face His decision to not wear his helmet caused an old acquaintance to ask some questions It turned out that the woman that was this shi+p's captain was so at hi her lips and this was not the only proble sis, can I 'ave this one, he be kind o'hireater proble multiplied Previously he only had to deal with only one strange pirate lady now there were three of them
They were clearly sisters that weren’t that e Perhaps after the oldest becas into the trade One of these sisters was now leaning against his shoulder and grinning like sooing and if he took the shi+p then the trip would probably be somewhat uncomfortable
“Nah fair, ye looted the last one, it'sfor his opinion, it was as if it was a given that he would consent to whatever they were feeling Roland decided to leave the two pirate-like ladies to their fight while focusing on the shi+p’s captain She was still the decision-o by shi+p
“Excuse me…”
“See, he likes me more, can nah compete wit' yer cap'n”
“No…, I just… When is the shi+p leaving?”
The captain seemed somewhat happy that he came over to her It seemed that these three sisters liked to coers For some reason, they weren’t that interested in the sailors around theed men Roland’s frame wasn’t that ed and his skin was more fair compared to the tanned men of the sea
“We be leavin' in about a week but I wouldna ht…”
“Uh, I’ll have to pass on that…”
“Well, ye be no fun If ye change yer mind ye knohere t' find me, 'til then ye'll 'ave t' wait The shi+prab won't be dockin' fer a few days”
“Thank you, I’ll be back then”
Roland already knew that only when the shi+p was about to leave would he be able to pay for the trip Until that day came he would need to remain here in this city While the cult problem was unresolved this was the safest place to be Solaria’s church was here along with a prohts, and adventurers even the cult would not be able to storm the city
‘This doesn’t oin' handsorab some ru else to do, I’ll have to excuse er sisters tried yanking hi her off he backed away and headed back The women seemed maddened by the fact that they were rejected but soon they turned towards so down from the stationed shi+ps, it seeet drunk and party
Having fun was not on his mind, he needed to stay here for almost an entire week if he wanted to take the shi+p towards Vita Before leaving the docks though he paid another visit to the infor sooner and if a probleoing towards Albrook, I’m really unlucky to come at this ti cargo at this time and the earliest he could leave was in four days Even then the shi+p was leaving to the other side of the island and the one after it was going towards the ry sea creature spotted lately which was blocking the way A group of shi+ps was for to clear it out but it would also take a few days for them to complete the mission
‘What should I do for an entire week?’
There was nothis thu he wanted to do For so a whole week doing nothing would beHe had repaired his armor’s runes already and the rest of his equipe, even his runic rod only needed to get bent back to shape
‘Maybe I should go to the church and get soet my hands on an empyrean crystal…’
The cult was still on his mind and the best way to counter their corruption was divine energy He had witnessed firsthand how a divine blade e parasitic creatures to turn to vapor Regretfully he was not soy, it was a skill locked behind worshi+ping classes
Yet there ays of storing this energy, one of such items was called an e on the divinity it could even turn black to produce evil energies that dey that he required to counter the dark ritual, with its help he ed to decode them with his Runic Eyes
From the literature that he read it was stated that these crystals fors This could be achieved in many ways, one of them was actually a secret of the church that was able to produce these iteabsorbed by so that would later become an empyrean crystal These would then be used in the production of various holy items, even weapons like swords
‘Would be nice if I could just e to the church every tiave out a sigh while looking into his purse He needed to get some supplies like h for food and the shi+p fare This didn’t leave much for him to buy an elixir that could cure curses on the fly They were one-time use items that could put a person in-dept quite fast
Back in Albrook, the church was not advanced enough to produce any but here in Reeka, he should be able to get one vial for the road Thus for the tiotten some supplies for his trip he was hasty Noith h the list slower
First, he visited the church of Solaria, while he was interested in getting his hands on soo there With the cultists buzzing around there could be some information that he could receive there
‘So this is the church, it makes the Albrook one look like a little shrine…’
This te the sun Goddess could be seen froht as the castle that belonged to the lord and was probably founded by the noble hiion very seriously in this world and nobles liked to be in good graces with the high priests fro a reality, they could assure theh-level priest if a need ever arose
It looked e cathedral than a church, in the front there were two large towers and between thee stairs led up to it and the circular ith stained glass above it was fashi+oned to look like the sun Above this , he could see a statue of a woman that resembled what the people here believed Solaria to look like
Roland wasn’t sure if these Gods really existed or were just a representation of soe, this representation of solaria was created after some pope used some powerful skill that apparently suainst some demon in the past Was it an actual God or was it just some summoned creature similar to the ones summoners could call doas the question
No one was stupid enough to call the believers out on their Gods The worshi+pers were lunatics in Roland’s eyes but even he could not deny the existence of supernatural creatures He was proof of so as he came to this world froical arts that went against everything he had learned there
‘It looks quite busy, is it norhts to be here?’
