13: Chapter 4: Lawful Good Mor_1
What would be the consequence if an undead mage drank holy water?
Boom!
“Ah!!!!” ddy suddenly scread loudly.
But because of the barrier activated earlier, his sound obviously couldn’t leave the cabin.
Pale flas ignited within his body, burning his flesh and soul.
In other words, his health was rapidly declining.
At this point, Motan’s plan was already 90% complete.
Previously, when he left the street, he didn’t rush here imdiately.
Instead, he found a small shop and bought a flask using the money in the grocer’s wallet.
Then he filled it with plain water and began praying earnestly, successfully creating a simple version of [Holy Water].
Then he managed to glean a lot of information about ddy from the town’s folk under various pretexts before he set off.
One hour later, the forr priest, now an undead mage – ddy Leven, was in his own cabin, burning, and it seed like he was soon going to be at death’s door.
But…
“You despicable…
vile…
bastard!
Maggot!
Trash!” ddy croaked, struggling step by step towards Motan, “Pay the price!
You think you can kill
just by tricking
into drinking so holy water?
You should know that I am…”
“A forr priest, right?
I gathered from others that you preached to so children every Sunday.” Motan’s voice sounded devilish in ddy’s ears, and he chuckled softly, “Your knowledge of Holy Light is much stronger than your study of undead magic.
This is why you have not been ‘purified’ for so many years, and also the reason why you’re confident that you won’t be destroyed by holy water, but…”
Thud!
ddy fell to his knees, spitting out streaks of black blood from his mouth.
“Who told you this is just holy water?”
[Fake Holy Water]
One-ti consumable
Effect: Unknown
[Note: made from a hypocritical prayer from an unbeliever]
ddy attempted to dissolve the effect of holy water with the power of his faith and in doing so, took a second hit, one that was spiritual.
If consuming holy water would cause significant damage to a creature with an undead-friendly constitution, then this bottle of fake holy water has both the effect of the forr while also causing any powers granted by a deity to backlash.
Of course, it’s useless to high-level beings such as the head of a priesthood (at least level 35 of the Holy Light School) or a zealous believer, but ddy clearly did not co under that category.
Hence, monts later, he was on his last breath…
“Mana…” The fallen old man reached out his arm, mumbling in a feeble voice as if trying to grasp sothing.
The agony on his face from earlier had turned into relief at this final mont.
He smiled.
“She has been waiting for you for a long ti.” Motan crouched in front of ddy.
His voice was unprecedentedly gentle,”You can rest now, Mr.
ddy.”
“I’ve waited…
waited too long for this mont…”
The mont ddy Leven stopped breathing, he turned into a heap of black ash.
The next second, the system’s voice echoed in Motan’s mind:
[You’ve unlocked the job: Fraud, level 2, experience 77/150]
[You’ve obtained a new skill]
[You’ve obtained the talent: Unbeliever]
[Guided tasks completed; you may choose a reward job: Thief/Warrior/Mage, and gain 60 experience points.]
[Task completion 300%, reward: one equipnt, optional 150 experience points.]
[Unlocked Itemography, Characterography, Storyography]
[Holy water, Fake Holy Water, ddy Leven, ‘The Love of ddy’ have been added to itemography]
[You’ve gained a unique mission, unique tasks unlocked]
“Well, that was beneficial…” Motan mumbled distractedly, and then picked up a ring from the pile of ashes on the ground.
As expected, it was an item of pretty decent quality.
[ddy’s Wedding Ring]
Type: Ring – Set
Quality: Fine – Unique
Attributes: Intelligence
5, Constitution
5, Strength -1, Undead Knowledge
1
Traits: Additional Skill: ddy’s Perseverance
Equipnt Requirents: None
Set Effect: [ddy’s Wedding Ring]/[Mana’s Wedding Ring] – Increase Constitution by 10%
[Note: The pair of rings exchanged at the wedding of ddy Leven and Mana Aine.
Mana Aine’s soul once resided in it, and it has never been removed.]
Literally, this ring of fine quality is an excellent piece of equipnt for the early stages of the ga.
It’s sothing to show off for sure, also being part of a set.
Given Motan’s wisdom, it wasn’t difficult for him to guess where the other item was.
Without a doubt, the counterpart [Mana’s Wedding Ring] would definitely be beneath the tombstone in the backyard that didn’t have anyone buried below it.
But…
Motan didn’t put it on his finger.
Instead, he found a jar in the cabin to store the ashes left by ddy, then brought both the ashes and the ring to the backyard.
After digging up another ring, he reburied the pair along with the jar.
This move was sothing that most people couldn’t understand, just as they felt puzzled about how Motan could kill the infatuated undead mage without any remorse.
But he didn’t care, or rather, this personality known as Tan Mo didn’t care.
He simply wanted to do it, and so he did.
As for losing two good pieces of equipnt, whether the deceased NPC could ‘rest in peace’ or not, those things didn’t bother him.
We can see from here that there are no words that can describe him better than [Neutral Chaos].
