Chapter 15: Is This Really Green Tea?

The two sat together, Ailina started asking Karoso about Demon Blood.

"Brother Karoso, why can Demon Blood be used in the Pastor Card group? Aren’t demons supposed to be evil?" Ailina pointed to the contents of the book.

This question is very profound, those with high and low levels of understanding may have different interpretations, and there is no absolute correct answer.

Even if Karoso is not very good at studying, he can still come up with a clever answer.

In just a few minutes, Ailina found the best topic to break the ice.

"In this world, there is no absolute justice or evil," explained Karoso. "Demon Blood is of the dark attribute, while the Pastor Card group leans towards light, causing them to be in absolute opposition, like water and fire."

"Nowadays, cards don’t have attributes like earth, water, fire, wind, thunder, light, or darkness anymore, right?" Ailina blinked her eyes.

"That’s right, the new cards are more versatile, but they can’t handle too much text display. But just because it’s not shown doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist." Karoso nodded. "After the end of the War of the Gods, the Pastor Card group leaned towards light because the victorious one was the Aurora Goddess, and the Church of Dawn Goddess spread throughout the entire continent. The systems of Pastors and Paladins were established during that time."

"Pastors and Paladins use the power of the Holy Light, adding a touch of divinity to the normal light attribute. In my opinion, this touch of divinity is a kind of shackle. They can quickly access the power of the light attribute but their limits are restricted, unable to break free from the constraints of the Aurora Goddess. Except for The Favored One, it’s very difficult to reach even the eighth-tier, let alone pursue the distant Light of Origins."

"Light of Origins?" Ailina was truly intrigued this time.

No one had ever told her about what Karoso mentioned before.

Those familiar with medieval history probably know about the Church’s position in the kingdom.

What Karoso mentioned was completely disrespectful to the Aurora Goddess.

In the hearts of many, the Aurora Goddess is revered, and receiving her power is an honor.

A shackle? This is blasphemy!

Of course, Karoso can say that now because the gods have been gone for three hundred years, the power of the church is not as strong as before, and with the rise of various small churches, the position of the Church of Dawn Goddess is being challenged.

But if Ailina reports Karoso, he will also face some troubles.

Dealing with this trouble is simple, just don’t admit it, the church won’t use spells on someone like Karoso for such a small matter.

Simply put, you can now discuss the gods, but quietly, to save face for everyone…

If the impact is too negative, then Karoso will have to face the church’s punishment.

"Well, the Light of Origins, that is the light from the beginning, the light emitted by the creator god." Karoso said, "It’s a bit too early for you to explore that, let’s talk about Demon Blood first."

"After the position of Aurora Goddess was established, those creatures with dark attributes were labelled as demons. To put it simply, it’s just survival of the fittest, we are the victors, so they are evil. If they were the victors, then we would be evil."

"In this world, where there is light, there is darkness, where there is light, there are shadows. When making the Pastor Card, adding Demon Blood serves two purposes."

"One is to slightly suppress the power of light to prevent ‘card explosions’, the other is to activate the instinctual conflict between light and darkness, allowing the power of light to be more effective…"

Karoso stopped suddenly.

He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw Ailina lean towards him, pointing to a place in the book, saying, "But, it’s not written like this in the book…"

Karoso felt a strange sensation at his elbow, making his heart beat faster.

When people are focused, they find it hard to notice their subconscious actions.

Ailina looked very serious, not adoring, as if she truly wanted knowledge from Karoso, sparking his desire to guide her.

"I think there’s an issue with what’s written in the book, this textbook should have been checked by teachers…"

Karoso took a deep breath and began speaking seriously.

Time flew by quickly, and when the dinner bell rang after two hours, Ailina still wanted more.

"Brother Karoso, let’s go eat?" Ailina pointed outside, saying, "I’ve been here before, let me take you to the best cafeteria, okay?"

"Next time." Karoso’s face turned red. "I’m not feeling well today."

Ailina leaned forward and instinctively touched Karoso’s forehead with the back of her hand.

"Hmm, your forehead feels hot. Are you sick? Let me take you to the school infirmary."

"No need, I just need to calm down." Karoso refused.

"Okay then, I’ll go eat first and come back to check on you later." Ailina muttered, "My brother probably made many new friends today. He should introduce them to me. I don’t like playing with them. They all look at me with strange … um…"

Karoso replied, "It’s just normal socializing that we can’t avoid."

"Well, okay, goodbye!"

Ailina waved and disappeared from Karoso’s room like a gust of wind.

Karoso stared blankly at the spot where she vanished, feeling a bit absent-minded.

Even though there were warnings from netizens, Karoso’s heart felt a bit restless.

Earlier, Karoso didn’t interact much with girls, the one he interacted with the most was Neymar.

Neymar’s timidity, obedience, and similarity to the household servants didn’t leave much of an impression on Karoso.

Ailina was different, her status was equal to Karoso’s, strictly speaking, even a notch higher than Karoso.

She wasn’t just a pretty face, she had the qualifications of a Card Maker as well.

During the teaching just now, Karoso could see that her foundation was not weak, and even surpassed others of the same age.

[Gosh, is this really green tea?]

[No, I need to review the plot again, could Ailina have been possessed?]

[Dang, why is Ailina so cute, even I’m falling for her, not to mention Master Karoso!]

[Isn’t this my ideal female classmate?]

[Ohhh, I miss the days of my school life.]

[Can’t you guys tell? Just now, her touching her hair like that is a sure sign! You see, Karoso mentioned ‘fiancée’ today, a normal girl wouldn’t like that! Alright, bonus points for Karoso’s charm…Honey Karoso.]

[There’s a clue that can wake you all up directly, what Ailina said about meeting new friends is actually pushing Honey Karoso to make a move, without a certain level, it’s impossible.]

[You guys really can’t tell a high-level green tea, can you, guys?]

[Oh no, will Honey Karoso get carried away?]
