Chapter 6, Sacred Sound

"I apologize for troubling you, Father Jim," Adam said with a smile as he turned to leave

The relationships between different churches vary; some are relatively harmonious, while others are as antagonistic as fire and water

In the end, I covered the scar beneath the left corner of my eye with half-long bangs. Perhaps Vlad is too young to understand this, but the other monks in the southern district church may not be entirely unaware of it

The next morning, Adam was pleased to see Brother Vlas at the door.

Does painting require the use of strong liquor? It must be that messy painter who casually mentioned it; you must have misheard, go back and ask for clarification before returning. Upon hearing that an additional bottle of strong liquor was needed, the fat man nearly exclaimed to just get lost.

Ghouls and Wendigos are similar, but they cannot long conceal themselves among human populations. Upon reaching adulthood or a certain stage of development, they must distance themselves from crowds, as they can no longer hide their abnormalities. Banshees, on the other hand, live in the mountains and forests.

"Brother Flah, you may go about your business; just leave him here." Alva did not put down the task at hand, continuing to feel along the wall, occasionally tapping on the wall with his hand, listening to the sound.

The monk forced a smile and said, "I have made arrangements with the painter Alva; later, you will accompany me to meet him, and he will take you on as an apprentice"

"How could it be so impressive?" Vlad smiled shyly, completely lacking the decisiveness he had shown when he struck with that sword earlier

Is it true that the structures of the Holy Sound Church are all quite similar? Adam slowly committed the structure of the church to memory

I confirm that I did not mishear, please..." Adam said after glancing at some documents on the table: "Please have Brother Jim add this material. If there are any questions, you may consult the teacher.

The only God of the formal church is the Creator God "Noah", who is depicted in the "Divine Word"

Adam saw a middle-aged man squatting in the corner, slowly tracing the patterns on the wall with his fingers from a distance

Too young. Adam curiously surveyed the interior of the church, catching a glimpse of Vlad's awkward demeanor, which also stirred a sense of guilt within him

For Adam, what he needs to do is to stay away from the Holy Sound Church; of course, before that, he needs to acquire more things here

Alva Ratu!" Vlad whispered to Adam, introducing him: "The great painter who settled in Roya a few years ago.

The most common types of otherworldly beings include werewolves, ghouls, wendigos, and banshees, as well as sea monsters along the coast, and of course, there are other types such as vampires.

Setting those thoughts aside for the time being, Vlad led Adam towards the South District Church

The church's purchaser is a middle-aged man of considerable girth, who displayed great impatience regarding Adam's suggestion to add materials, even revealing a sense of disdain towards Adam.

With the departure of Vra, it seems that this corner is left with only Adam and Alva, although Alva has no intention of speaking to Adam and continues to observe the wall.

For a significant period, apprentices essentially serve as free labor, and what they are taught largely depends on luck

"Whoever it is, go tell whoever to procure an additional bottle of spirits from the materials." Alva said nonsensically

Perhaps Vlad's bottom line will continue to lower over time, but that is his own affair. Under his own guidance, lowering a person's bottom line still allows Adam to recognize the fact that he is indeed a scoundrel.

At this moment, Jim began to seriously examine Adam, pulling out a document from one side and noting a bottle of strong liquor on it

"Yes, I am dealing with some trouble," said Vlad.

Back in that corner, Alva was still there. The following day, Adam followed closely behind Alva, observing as Alva continuously measured various parts of the church

What Adam did not expect was that as he walked down the corridor, intending to exit through the side door, someone called out to him

"Are those the monsters?" Adam steered the conversation. "That day, I saw Brother Vlas kill that monster with a single sword strike. Those monsters should have all been eliminated by Brother Vlas by now"

It is not surprising that, although the Church of the Holy Sound has not actively hunted down sorcerers or witches—these gray professions—over the years, it still remains quite hostile towards them. Therefore, the items from the church are at best of good quality, lacking any extraordinary powers.

Adam looked around and saw that he was the only one there, so he did not say anything more. He walked towards another area, found a passing monk, and inquired about who was responsible for the church's procurement, then went to find that person himself

There exists a profound relationship between the two in this world

Therefore, among human groups, the most hidden and the most harmful are still the werewolves

"Master Alva, this is Adam." As they approached, Vlara introduced Adam.

The God seen by different churches is merely a different aspect of God; therefore, the churches that have developed from this, in terms of doctrine and the image of God, are all distinct from one another

Adam followed Alva and found Alva's observations to be quite peculiar, touching, gazing, listening, and even bringing his nose close to sniff.

"Whoever that is, come early tomorrow!" As the sky gradually darkened, Alva finally turned to Adam and spoke, still not having remembered Adam's name

Unkempt beard, dry long hair tied into a simple ponytail, wearing a long robe that has changed from white to brown, yet there is no unpleasant odor, and the hands are stained with various colors of paint

The churches in the Holy Sound Kingdom are primarily the Holy Sound Church, which adheres to the belief in the Holy Sound. This type of church is considered relatively accessible to the public and, following the various churches on the mainland, it is also relatively large in scale

Vla did not provide an in-depth explanation, but merely outlined the characteristics of these different species.

Adam was not concerned about this; he took the opportunity to walk around the church more, listening to some of the church's secrets

"You go back first, I will add the materials for you later." Brother Jim, unable to tolerate your demeanor, waved his hand as if to agree with Adam, only to find that Adam remained motionless, still standing there.

Adam did not go out that evening, as his abilities were still too lacking, and his understanding of the extraordinary was also insufficient

Adam was also not idle, observing alongside. The murals depict the deeds of God creating the world and saving all beings as described in the "Word of God". Currently, these murals have experienced some fading and flaking.

Brother Flah is seemingly very busy lately Adam is fiddling with his hair as if to make a good impression on the teacher he is about to meet

What intrigued Adam the most was the vampire, as according to some legends from his past life, vampires are the arch-enemies of werewolves

Although most people generally refer to it simply as the church, there are indeed differences between various churches

Thank you, Brother Vlas. Adam was very happy, and seeing the smile on Adam's face, Vlas let out a sigh of relief. Perhaps he had been too inflexible before

The church always emphasizes communication with God; as long as communication is convenient, one can obtain more divine skills

He plans to first go to the church to gather more information about the other species before starting his own plan, as he is more familiar with the church's methods than with the other species themselves.

As he entered through the side door, Vlad could feel everyone's astonished gaze upon him, which made him feel an urge to lower his head and hide his face

"Father Jim, Sir Rupert has arrived," someone at the door knocked and said, which made the middle-aged fat man even more impatient with Adam

At that moment, he appeared kind and benevolent, waving at Adam, squinting his eyes and smiling as he said, "You are Adam, right? I would like to ask you a few things."

Then I will take my leave, Adam, study diligently, and if you have any matters, just come find me!" Vlad patted Adam on the shoulder and turned to walk inside, as he also had many matters to attend to

Initially, vampires did not exist; the birth of vampires was the result of certain human sorcerers' pursuit of eternal life through their research on werewolves. The birth of each pure vampire involves the sacrifice of a werewolf, thus the two are not harmonious.

Vera briefly introduced the characteristics of common alien species to Adam, so that he could be more cautious, and did not elaborate further, as they had already arrived at the South District Cathedral

The white-bearded monk who announced the punishment at the scene of the burning execution that night

Extinction of the异种 is not so easy. Adam, you should still be cautious when you see some suspicious individuals. " Vlad raised his hand and looked at his palm, saying, " Those monsters are too dangerous.
