Witcher: I Can Extract Everything
Chapter 154 - Mass
In Caleru City, the sun was shining. The Sun had yet to rise.
The Cathedral of Caleru.
The old stone temple had been replaced by a majestic hall.
In the square in front of this hall, there was a sea of people.
After several months of relentless publicity and spread, the Holy Church had gathered a group of believers who believed in it. Under the lead of this group of believers, more people gathered around it.
Since last night, a crowd had gathered around the cathedral. By this morning, it had already completely surrounded the place.
The crowd was like a sea!
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The morning bell rang, its voice solemn and bright.
Along with that sound, there was a creak, and the tall and big cathedral door opened on both sides.
Two rows of Knights of equal height walked out from the door first, one on the left and one on the right. They were all wearing bright armor with silver-white hollowed patterns, their helmets had red feathers on them, and they held long spears in their hands. Their bodies were emitting an invisible power.
The square could not help but whisper to each other:
“Where did these Knights come from? They’re so mighty!”
“Holy Knights! They’re the church’s paladins, the Holy Knights!”
The Knights stood on both sides of the door. Then, the sound of footsteps came from the church. Not long after, someone walked out again.
It was a group of beautiful young girls. They were wearing white ceremonial robes with a golden foundation and a flawless white veil on their heads. Their exquisite faces and the holy clothes made them look like the legendary angels. They were extremely eye-catching.
The square was in an uproar.
“Are… are… are they angels? Are they angels?”
“They are the priests of the Holy Church! They are the most devout servants of God! They are angels!”
“Really, is there really a God…”
At the same time, Irene, who was standing in front of the door, was stunned.
The crowd in front of the door was far beyond her imagination. Thousands of eyes were staring at her and talking about her as an angel. As a female slave, she had never felt this before, and she didn’t even dare to think about it.
What… What was going on?
‘Didn’t they say that it was just a show? I… I was just… completing Master’s task, wasn’t I?’
‘But… But why is my heart racing… I can’t breathe…’
‘I… What should I do now?’
The same problem happened to the other priests. In the past, they were just lowly female slaves. They were the smallest type in the world. Now, under the gaze of so many people, everyone felt pressure of varying degrees.
They were short of breath, unable to breathe, and their minds were blank.
In their eyes, they were just female slaves. How could they receive so much attention and respect from so many people?
Seeing that they were going to mess up, they heard a voice in their ears.
The voice said, “Don’t be afraid. God is watching you.”
It was like the sound of nature.
It gave people an inexplicable sense of peace.
Suddenly, the nervous female slaves calmed down and slowly walked forward. Their expressions became solemn and cautious, as if they had become one with the priest robes they were wearing. Naturally, they brought with them a holy aura.
The priests were also divided into two rows. They came to the front of the Knights and stood in two opposite rows.
Standing still, Irene looked at the sea of people below and wondered, ‘Is there really… is there really a God?’
If there wasn’t a God… Then how could a person like her stand here? How could she be the center of attention?
Her gaze inadvertently glanced at the priest robe on her body. The priest robe that they had worn earlier made them feel funny, but now she felt an inexplicable sense of honor.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The ceremonial bell that was filled with a holy aura rang at this moment.
The noisy square fell silent.
The commoners, the nobles, the Holy Knights, the Light Priests, everyone stopped talking.
Everyone turned their heads in unison and looked towards the church’s main door.
Da…
Da, da…
Da, da, da…
Crisp footsteps sounded from afar and approached. The sound was not loud, but at this moment, it was exceptionally clear.
A few people walked out of the door, five men and a woman.
Walking at the front were four young men. They wore red robes with golden threads embroidered on their sleeves and the totem of the Holy Spirit Flower as the base.
Walking at the back was a kind-looking old man and a young and beautiful girl. The old man wore a white robe with golden edges and a golden crown on his head. He held a cross-shaped golden scepter in his hand. The girl’s clothes were similar to those of the priests, but the patterns were more complicated.
The six of them were shining with a faint golden light. They were particularly eye-catching in this dark moment. From the inside to the outside, from the top to the bottom, they exuded a holy aura.
On the square, one could hear the sound of a needle falling. Both the commoners and the nobles were stunned at this moment.
Looking at the six people who came, they felt an indescribable authority spread in the depths of their hearts, making them want to bow down and worship.
Finally.
Pa!
On the square, a man who could not take it anymore kneeled on the ground. His hands were on the ground, and his forehead was barely touching the ground.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa…
As if he was infected, the people on the square knelt down in groups, whether they were the original believers, the people who joined in the fun, the commoners, or the nobles.
Regardless of whether they believed it or not, they all knelt down in front of the six people.
Seeing this scene, Heath, who was in the team, could not help but feel a little surprised. Due to the cost of Magic Stones, he did not prepare any large-scale spirit-type spells to bewitch people. In other words, these people all knelt down on their own accord.
‘This… isn’t this a little too much…’
Looking at those pairs of devout and fanatical eyes, Heath once again felt a chill in his heart. It was as if he had accidentally created an invisible monster…
“Hey! Heath! Why are you in a daze!? Hurry up!” An urging voice interrupted Heath’s train of thought.
It was the Pope of Light, Peter.
According to their plan, Peter would be preaching during the mass this time. In order to have a more shocking effect, everyone decided to let him fly in the air to preach. However, Peter was only a middle-level Apprentice and did not know how to fly… He needed Heath’s help.
At this moment, seeing Heath in a daze, he seemed to be a little anxious.
“Oh!”
Hearing Peter’s low voice, Heath quickly came back to his senses.
‘Calm down! It’s nothing!’
‘This is a good thing. The more fanatical and enthusiastic they are, the more productive they will be!’
‘I can hold on!’
After comforting himself in his heart, Heath walked forward.
Then, the remaining three cardinals and the Holy Maiden of Light moved aside, leaving a separate space for the Pope of Light, Peter.
Heath came to Peter’s side and softly chanted a spell while secretly releasing magic power. Together with the ‘Light Body’ potion that was given to Peter in advance, he finally slowly floated off the ground and rose into the air.
The believers were indeed shocked. They lowered their heads even more.
Peter continued to rise until he reached the height of the cathedral.
At this moment, he stood in the air and looked down at the crowd on the ground. His pope’s robe fluttered in the wind, causing him to release an inexplicable power.
It was as if something was really pushing him.
It was neither too early nor too late. The dawn arrived at this moment, and the sun rose from the other side of the mountain.
The first ray of morning light of the day pierced through the clouds above and shot straight into the square. It hit Peter’s body without any deviation.
Patter! Patter!
The crisp sound of wings flapping could be heard.
A pure white pigeon appeared out of nowhere. It flapped its wings and flew straight up along the ray of light, winding around Peter’s body.
After taking a light breath, Peter opened his mouth.
“Heaven! Earth!”
At this moment, there was a solemn silence.
There was only one voice left in the world!
“God said: Let there be light!”
…
On this day, the first mass of the Holy Church of Light was successfully held in the Cathedral of Caleru. The Holy Church of Light was also completely pushed to the front stage.
The effect on the mass was obvious.
Before this, although the people here were called people, they were actually no different from animals. But now, the appearance of the Holy Church of Light had used a complete system to redefine ‘people’, giving them a brand new meaning to life.
It told them that they could not cohabit with livestock, could not eat raw food, could not be naked, and so on…
More importantly, mass told them that they were not tools of the nobles and could have their own value of existence. Everyone was serving God and there was no distinction between nobility and inferiority in front of God.
He told them…
In short, a new set of order was established in Caleru City. This was a new set of order that was different from all the previous ones in this world…
…
Shortly after the end of mass, Heath made the next decision —
He was going back to his hometown.
