Mystery: The Star Key - v2 Chapter 71
“Mystery: Key of the Star(
Is she the believer you said?
Igna looked at Canterbury and blinked, but said nothing.
Canterbury nodded lightly in affirmation.
The two did not say these words publicly.
This was also at Canterbury’s request.
Canterbury also explained the specific reasons for Ignatius.
Mainly because, in the villages of the Rorsted Islands, beliefs are not open, nor pluralistic.
Generally speaking, the same tribe or village maintains the same beliefs. Their beliefs do not necessarily correspond to specific gods. However, it must be unified. If someone publicly declares that they have different beliefs in a village or village, they will definitely be discriminated against and excluded.
Therefore, the believers in the development of Canterbury are also hidden in secret.
Ignatius understands this, because belief is to some extent a product of society, a tool to unite tribes.
In terms of the current level of civilization development in the Rhodes Islands, obedience to “belief” is also an important part of maintaining local relations.
Therefore, Igna smiled at the little girl, drew a prayer gesture of the Church of Fools in his heart, and said softly in the giant language that only two people could hear: “Praise Mr. Fool.”
The little girl’s eyes lit up.
She looked up at Canterbury. Seeing Canterbury nod, she turned her head again, smiled at Igna, and gave Igna a response.
She said silently, “Praise Mr. Fool.”

Ignatius and Canterbury didn’t have too many chats with the little girl.
Ignat, who was holding the linguist, only heard Canterbury’s simple greeting about the little girl’s current situation. And after getting good feedback, he gave the girl a small package folded with oiled paper.
Canterbury did not dismiss other onlookers. And when she raised her head to look at them, the children didn’t even run away.
“Sister Demon Hunter, they also want some powder that can ‘protect the house from ghouls and wolves’, okay?” the little girl asked softly.
“They also want to protect their families.”
Canterbury nodded and said, “Of course.”
At this time, Igna realized what Canterbury gave the little girl.
The powder that “protects the home from ghouls and wolves” is scientifically called “ghoul expelling powder”.
In the past few days, when Igna and Canterbury were camping out in the suburbs, they had seen the Guardian take out the same powder and sprinkle it outside their camp.
Igna asked about the use of the powder.
Canterbury also explained that this is the powder she brought from the City of Silver. Able to expel ghouls, as well as most carrion beasts.
Although the Sequence 4 of the Warrior Path is the witcher, the medicine made by the witcher is not the “patent” of the witcher.
This is a trait of the witcher’s ability.
In general, witchers’ abilities make them aware of the uses of various materials. Moreover, these materials can be used to formulate medicines, holy ointments, essential oils, etc., and achieve the effect of defeating the enemy. (Note 1)
Of course, without reaching demigods, warriors cannot withstand the poison of the witcher’s potion.
However, medicines that do not directly act on the human body, such as essential oils, holy ointments, and expelling powders, can also be used by ordinary warriors.
There are only two conditions required to make it. One is the ability to identify materials. Second, the safe recipe that the Sequence 4 demigod witchers are willing to share generously.
The City of Silver can survive in the Land Abandoned by God, and the holy ointment and essential oils that ordinary people can use have also made a great contribution to improving the survival rate.
Therefore, Canterbury did not refuse the children’s request.
The expression on her face, which had always been lacking in expression, did not even change.
She still maintained the posture of squatting and lying down to talk to the girl, not smiling. But she meticulously took out several oil paper bags from the cloth bag she was carrying, and spread them out in her hands.
“You can all come and get it,” Canterbury said to the children with a blank expression.
The few children who didn’t run away dawdled forward. When these children held out their hands, Canterbury raised his hand and said to them with a cold face.
“But there is a premise for the use of powder. You need to say ‘thank Mr. Fool’s kindness’ or ‘praise Mr. Fool’ when using it.”
At the end of the words, Canterbury replaced the words of praise for the gods with the language of giants.
Compared with Dutan, Giant language is basically the language of another world. But these indigenous children all nodded.
The first boy to go forward said to Canterbury: “We all know that Harena has taught us.”
“Zami Fool has appeared.” He said confidently and loudly.
“Xian Sen, the Fool.” The little girl behind also said inarticulately.
The children who followed behind also used non-standard giant language to express that they had learned the “spell” of using powder.
“Ok……”
Canterbury patiently corrected the pronunciation of several children, and then said to the children in Dutan: “These powders come from ‘Mr. Fool’. So, remember to say ‘Praise Mr. Fool’ before using it. .”
“Mr. Fool” and “Praise for Mister Fool” Canterbury both said in Giant language.
Ignatius, who was watching from the side, raised his eyebrows involuntarily.
Canterbury’s way of preaching is a bit new.
First, give education and charity from the point where the people in the village need it the most~www.mtlnovel.com~ Second, persuade children who have little faith in gods. This is obviously much easier than persuading adults who are already ingrained in their beliefs.
Third, use “Mr. Fool” as the source of the medicine. On the one hand, it’s obviously more receptive to kids. On the other hand, it also allows their praise to reach Mr. Fool.
Giant language is a language that can communicate with gods. Every time the children are protected by powder, their praise to Mr. Fool must be sincere, and their “spell” can also make their gratitude “reach to heaven”.
Yes, Ignat remembered this method in his heart, and felt that it could be used as a replicable case.
The change of belief cannot be done in an instant, the important thing is to be subtle and “slowly plan”.

“Hey. Half-giant, I heard you can hunt monsters, right?”
Just as Ignatius and Canterbury were saying goodbye to their children and preparing to leave the village to complete their mission, they were stopped by an old woman.
“Yes.” Canterbury paused amiably, looked down at the old woman, and nodded. “But you have to pay.”
“I will pay 5 soli, which is the same as the payment given by the mayor.” The old woman said, “Help me find the monster that attacked my house.”

Note 1: The witcher ability comes from the second volume, The Faceless, Chapter 232 “Live”.
The content of holy ointment, essential oils, and potions can hardly be considered as a secondary design. Because although it is not mentioned in the original text, this is the setting of the professional content of “Witcher” in “The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt”, the professional prototype of “Witcher”. (like a tongue twister)
Roughly in the fourth volume, The Undead, Chapter 164 Daly’s Temptation, there is a vague mention that ordinary people can also use ointments and essential oils.
