Chapter 8 You can rest assured

There is no free lunch in the world, let alone sharing the flesh and blood of God, which is not as simple as imagined.

"This is my blood, my flesh, I will turn it into food and share it with you." This sentence is not just a saying.

Although it is not a true holy word, once things related to gods are spoken out and the gods do not object, they are recognized by the laws of the world and have symbolic meanings. Therefore, the communion at the rituals really symbolizes the flesh and blood of the gods.

When believers eat the Holy Communion, they are equivalent to eating the flesh and blood of the gods, and relying on the flesh and blood of the gods to continue their lives. Then these believers will be with the gods as mentioned in the prayer.

If they always believe in the Dark Moon Goddess in the future, of course there will be no problem. Even if their belief in the Dark Moon becomes weaker over time, they will not be affected in any way. The gods are loving and will not blame them for their faith downplaying their faith.

However, once these believers betray the Dark Moon's faith, stand on the opposite side of the Dark Moon, and become the power to fight against the Dark Moon, the role of the Holy Communion is reflected. Relying on the flesh and blood of the gods to continue their lives, but also to betray the gods. This is the true blasphemy and the most serious crime. It is not determined by anyone, nor is it executed, but the laws of the world will judge it as a blasphemy and use the power of the law to bring down God's punishment.

This so-called divine punishment does not rely on violence to punish someone, but a person who betrays a god will be rejected by the laws of the world, and everything in the world will become his enemies. In layman's terms, he will become very, very unlucky, be hit by a carriage when he goes out, bitten by a dog when he goes home, and may break his legs when he goes up and down the stairs.

Most people don’t understand why they suddenly become so unlucky. They usually attribute it to the reason for betraying their faith, so there are many rumors that they cannot betray their faith, otherwise they will not even favor you. I’m afraid they will never know that the key to the problem is not betraying their faith, but just a few short prayers.

Shuer knew that with the increase of believers in the future, some cases of betraying faith for various reasons will definitely appear. It is understandable, but it cannot be tolerated. Therefore, he set up such a tacit trap among the priests, striving to kill betrayal in the bud.

"Thank you for giving us food and receiving the flesh and blood of the Lord, we will always be loyal." Confirm that every believer ate the food, the girl then ate the portion of her own, her mouth slightly raised, and she recited the last prayer with great pleasure.

In fact, she didn't understand the principle of doing this, but after Shuer explained, she became the most staunch supporter, even more so than Shuer herself, and she had to watch the believers receive the communion and establish symbolic connections with the goddess before she could feel at ease.

"Hey? Don't you go and eat?"

The small door that Talinna and Meria just walked out was gently closed. Shur did not attend the ceremony, but kept hiding here to observe. Unlike the priests of the Bishop, Shur, as a fighting priest, did not have a rigid rule to participate in similar rituals. Although most church priests and guards are used to participating, it is actually okay not to participate. Shur has the identity of the Gold-Eating Beast of the Rose Capital, and is unwilling and really not suitable to appear in such a solemn occasion, so he simply hid aside and watched. As soon as he turned around, he saw Moria had already run in at some point.

"Ha." Shul shook his head with a smile, without answering the question.

Like Lisa, it is just to set an example for the believers. Eating or not eating is meaningless to the priests.

As a priest, there is no need to eat the sacrament. Compared with the sacrament, the priest's soul oath is actually more effective. From the moment when the swears to become a priest to serve the gods for life, the destiny of the priest has been closely linked to the gods. Not only fate, but even the souls are closely linked. Unless other gods intervene, no priest will turn aside their faith, and there will be no future.

"Why did you come?" Although Moria is keen on making trouble, she is very good at placing a position. She will never do anything inappropriate in this crucial occasion (Odin:??). Besides, the opportunity of the Dark Moon believer, it is not convenient for her to appear as the offspring of Lord Anika. According to the previously agreed plan, she will not participate at all today. Therefore, Shuer was very surprised why she suddenly appeared here.

"Sasa temporarily deals with the school's affairs and drives me out." Lin Jing curled his lips aggrievedly. As the reputation of the Darkmoon Church spread widely, the schools jointly established by both sides also ushered in a wave of freshmen. Over the past month, Saf was so busy that he had almost no time to eat. Moria actually wanted to make trouble for her. No wonder she was bombarded. However, Moria's grievance lasted for less than three seconds, and she was attracted by the prayers outside. She simply lay beside Shul and looked through the crack of the door with him. "Lisa has done a good job and looks like a qualified priest."

Yes, Lisa did a perfect job. The whole prayer meeting was impeccable from beginning to end. Shuer believed that even the goddess who had been peeping secretly was quite satisfied. Yes, she must have been peeping with the stone that had just hit her head. This prayer meeting was a sacrifice that all the priests had spent years of energy to finally offer. No matter how calm she was and how little she didn't care, she could not ignore it.

"In the name of the Lord, I will bless you, praise the merciful Lord, praise the lightless moon, holy." Lisa raised her hand, and a dim holy light shone on the venue, and the dusty light spots sprinkled on the believers, which made their bodies quickly regain their energy after a day of hard work. "Today's prayer ends here. The children of the Lord, in their future lives, please always remember the teachings of the Goddess, and remember that the Lord is with us."

"The Lord is with me." Under the atmosphere, the believers around the icon seemed to have entered a state of spiritual resonance. No one organized them, but the voices of the believers were unexpectedly neat, "Holy."

"Perfect." Shuer took a few steps back and let the doorstep of Ai let out a long sigh, as if he had removed the heaviest burden in his heart. When he turned to face Moria, even the smile on his face was different from usual, "So, besides boredom, there are other things."

"It seems you can finally feel relieved." Moria tilted her head, smiling simple and brilliantly, but the words she said were creepy, "Can you die with confidence?"

"Yes." Shur was calm and looked at Moria with a calm smile, "You can die with confidence."

"That's good." Lin Jing nodded, "Everyone is gathered tonight."

"ha?"

"Mia and I gathered." Lin Jingli said for granted, "I have been an old friend for so long. Since I can't accompany you, I should send you there."
