Apparent Expert in an Alternate World - Chapter 44

Chapter 44: Using Blood to Activate the Forbidden Spell

‘A messenger of the God of Light? The God of Light had entered his dreams?’ Everyone was in a daze. Even Shanz and Catherine who believed they understood Chu Nan the most were stunned.

Saintess Carlina blankly stared at Chu Nan. ‘Can this man, whom she could not even sense a single ounce of light energy in him, have truly obtained the mercy of the God of Light?’

‘He’s crazy! This man must have gone nuts due to the fear of death.’ That was the thought of the majority of the spectators there.

Efran was the first to recover from the shock and he immediately bellowed. “Liar! You used the name of the God of Light to lie for your own benefit! Once again, you had desecrated the God of Light and his teachings! Men!”

“Halt!” In response, Chu Nan suddenly raised his voice. Even though he wasn’t a genuine expert, he sure had a facade that was similar to one. Coupled with his otherworldly appearance and the confidence he exuded, his one shout immediately halted the knights from getting any closer.

“I haven’t lied!” Chu Nan raised [God of Light’s Gift] in his hands and shouted, “At first, I assumed it was a dream due to my pious faith in the God of Light! However, I discovered this gift right beside me when I woke up. I quickly realized that the God of Light had provided me the way of salvation for everyone in this city in my dreams. Everyone! Listen clearly, in my hands, I have something that will save us all from this devilish plague, the scroll of [God of Light’s Gift!].”

The four words were similar to a silencing spell that was instantly casted over the noisy street.

[God of Light’s Gift]! That’s a Heaven Grade forbidden spell for goodness sake! It was a top tier light magic recovery spell that even the pope might not be able to cast and yet, that man possessed the forbidden spell’s magic scroll?

It had to be known that the [God of Light’s Gift] had never appeared in the form of a scroll, as that was something even the Temple of Light did not possess.

‘However, is that a real scroll or a fake one?’ For a moment, there were only suspicions in everyone’s heart other than shock.

“Oh great God of Light! Your humble servant is grateful for your indiscriminate pity. I am willing to use my blood to express my devout faith to you!”

Chu Nan solemnly shouted and tolerated the pain as he bit his fingers. The pain from his finger had almost caused him to cry out loud.

Saintness Carlina looked at Chu Nan with an appreciative gaze. Similarly, there were dozens of soldiers who looked at Chu Nan with the same gaze.

It was possible to use light magic to activate the forbidden spell, but using blood as activation was the most pious method in the God of Light doctrine .

‘That man is a devout son of the God of Light! He must be!’ Saintness Carlina had already decided that after Chu Nan activated [God of Light’s Gift], she would safely bring him back to the Temple of Light regardless of Efran’s decision!

‘That was a man the God of Light had selected so he must be the most devout follower of the God of Light! If so, how could she possibly allow him to die in Dolunga City?’

Even though the saint knights did not have the same thoughts as Carlina to bring Chu Nan back to the Temple of Light, they were moved by Chu Nan’s pious attitude and secretly decided to give their best to protect Chu Nan’s life!

Efran cried out internally. He was rather skeptical that the scroll was a Heaven Grade forbidden spell, [God of Light’s Gift]. However, he knew all too well what it meant to use blood as an activation medium to activate a scroll! Even if it was revealed that the scroll was not [God of Light’s Gift], it would be difficult to kill that handsome fella in this situation.

Everyone in the streets stared blankly at Chu Nan as a drop of blood dripped down from his fingers onto the scroll.

All of them held their breaths as they prayed that it was a genuine and effective scroll, the Heaven Grade forbidden spell that could save their lives.

As soon as the drop of blood hit the scroll’s surface, it quickly sank into the scroll, then traces of a faint light radiated from the scroll.

The next second, the scroll released a weak holy ring of light and everyone widened their eyes in amazement with heart rates at almost 120 beats per minute.

In less than half a breath, the scroll suddenly violently shook. Under everyone’s gaze, it quickly shot up into the gloomy skies of Dolunga City.

The scroll rapidly spun in the air and before anyone could react, the faint light intensified to the extent that it was like a moon appearing in the day, clearly away from the gloomy skies to shine rays of gentle white light in every direction of the city.

This scene stunned everyone present, and Saintess Carlina even knelt down and prayed towards the display of power by her God. Even if it was not the Heaven Grade forbidden spell, [God of Light’s Gift], at the very least, it was definitely an Earth Grade forbidden recovery magic spell.

The white light radiated from the scroll did not stop as it expanded its range. In another blink of an eye, the scroll that was like the moon had become the second sun of Dolunga City.

The intense holy light instantly enveloped the entire city and every infected person felt as if the plague in their body gradually disappeared as they bathed in the light.

Chu Nan was standing in the middle of the streets. With the exception of him, Shanz, Catherine and Efran, practically everyone knelt on the ground, including those aristocrats that had followed Efran.

The Temple of Light’s Saint Knight Yashly knelt on the ground and looked up at the scroll radiating the holy light in the sky. He then exclaimed in a low voice, “Dear God, it’s really the [God of Light’s Gift]? A Heaven Grade forbidden spell! The supreme God of Light, is that you bestowing us a miracle? Your humble followers here have clearly felt the compassion that you wish to bestow on us.”

“[God of Light’s Gift]… the [God of Light’s Gift]… it’s really the [God of Light’s Gift]…” Carlina looked at the scroll up in the skies and her devout gaze was filled with excitement. “The supreme God of Light, your humble follower wishes to thank you for your mercy, and thank you for sending a messenger to save the lives of 500 thousand innocent people. I will definitely work harder to preach about your doctrine to let everyone believe in your teachings and thoroughly defeat the Temple of Darkness
