This Holy Knight is So Despicable!
Chapter 628 547: You Are Not Devout Enough!
Subvert cognition?
At first, Holy Daughter Aloe didn't quite believe it.
As the Holy Daughter, she had the opportunity to follow the Church Court's large entourage to patrol neighboring countries twice a year.
Although she was not very old, she could be considered well-traveled, and not just once.
Aloe didn't dare claim she has seen all the world's wonders, but the places she visited were the most prosperous and developed cities of each country.
What kind of novelty hadn't she seen before?
But when she, along with Knight Captain Terry, stepped into the Holy Land, she was instantly stunned by everything she saw.
Alright, she really hadn't seen these things before.
"Uncle Terry! What kind of flowers are growing on the roofs of these houses?"
"Oh, those are Light Sunflowers, they can store sunlight in the form of energy."
"Store, store it for what purpose?"
"Of course, it's for the functions of other magical plants inside the entire house."
The Knight Captain pointed to one of the houses, "Look, inside there are Magic Light Flowers for illumination, Fiery Flame Fire Lotuses that can release flames as stoves, and Light Pattern Morning Glories that can receive broadcasts from the Holy Mountain..."
Terry introduced over a dozen light plants used by the locals in their daily household life, leaving Aloe wide-eyed.
"These, these are all plants?"
"They are Magic Plants! Simply called Magic Plants. These are all bestowed to us by the Divine Envoy."
After hearing this, Aloe waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, no, he, the Divine Envoy isn't an envoy of Light? How does he have so many bizarre magical plants?"
Terry had an expression of obviousness, "Why can't an envoy of Light have magical plants?"
"It's not about why not, it's just... it's like..."
Aloe rubbed her temples, feeling her mind in chaos.
Right, why can't he have them? But having them feels so strange!
"Ah! Yes! It's like an Earth Element Mage being able to use Fire Element Magic! It's very strange!"
The Knight Captain spread his hands, "If he knows Fire Element Magic, it doesn't stop him from being an Earth Element Mage!"
Aloe was stunned for a moment; that seemed reasonable, but also absurd.
"No, no, no, if he knows Fire Element Magic, then he can't be called just an Earth Element Mage, at least he should be called a Flame and Earth Dual Element Mage, right?"
The Knight Captain was very angry, "Aloe, how can we deprive an Earth Element Mage of his rights because he can use Fire Element Magic?
We hope the Earth Element Mage can master not only Fire Element but more elements of magic!
Thus, the Earth Element Mage will become more powerful.
Isn't that what we want? Don't you want the Earth Element Mage to become stronger?"
Aloe was left speechless, feeling that something was wrong but unable to articulate it.
In the end, she still came around to this point.
"No way! He is an envoy of Light! He should devote himself to Light! How can he be proficient in things like Life Magic at the same time?"
The Knight Captain smiled slightly, "Aloe, I remember when you were young you loved dolls, and even as you grew older you often crafted them yourself.
In fact, in your little circle, you were quite famous, right?"
Aloe was a bit dumbfounded, "Uncle Terry, why did you suddenly bring this up?"
"According to your logic, as the Holy Daughter, you should devote everything to the Light, so how can you grasp excellent sewing skills while being the Holy Daughter of Light?"
"This, this, this is completely different!"
"Why?"
"What... why?"
The Knight Captain widened his eyes, "Why is sewing okay, but Life Magic is not?
What is your standard for this boundary?"
Aloe opened her mouth, finally filled with confusion in her eyes, "This, because sewing is just a skill... Life Element is... magic, so..."
"Aloe! Such desecration!"
The Knight Captain suddenly rebuked, "Do you mean that, in your heart, Life Magic is comparable to Light?"
"No! It's not! Light is grander, Light is holier! Light is unique!"
"Isn't that settled?"
The Knight Captain raised both hands, full of devout expression, "Light is supreme! For the supreme Light, Life Magic and Elemental Magic are actually like sewing and forging; they cannot be compared.
If you can tolerate sewing, why can't you tolerate Life Magic?
The reason is simple!
Because your faith in Light is not pure!
Subconsciously, you regard Light and so-called Life Magic as equivalent!
That's why you have such a desecrating view!"
"Yes! Sorry!!!"
After listening to the Knight Captain's reprimand, Aloe, as the Holy Daughter, almost cried.
So that's how it is?
No, after hearing the Knight Captain's words, that's exactly how it is!
How can Life Magic be comparable to the supreme Light?
Since there's such a vast difference, not on the same level at all.
How could Life Magic possibly affect the commitment to the Light?
I shouldn't have had such a question!
Having such a question itself compares Life Magic with the supreme Light!
That, indeed, is desecration!
Once she figured this out, Aloe felt a sudden clarity of thought.
Previously, she was very resistant to the clergy of the Light Church using magic.
In her eyes, those mages were opponents of the church.
But now it seems her thinking was too narrow!
Her narrow-minded thinking inhibited the spreading of Light!
It turns out there were so many who could have been future believers of the Light Church, yet because of her narrow-minded thoughts, they were turned away.
I am guilty!
Seeing the expression of repentance on Aloe's face, the Knight Captain nodded in satisfaction.
"Aloe, do you know why I understand all of this?"
"Uncle Terry, your understanding of Light surpasses mine, isn't that normal?"
"No, it was all taught to us by the Divine Envoy."
The Knight Captain sighed, "Previously, I also questioned the great Divine Envoy due to similar confusion, but rather than blame me, he patiently explained everything to me.
That time, I truly had an Awakening, completed my Enlightenment, and experienced Conversion to the Light Path!
That feeling was like being reborn!
Aloe, you must seize this opportunity!"
The Knight Captain spoke while looking towards the direction of the Holy Mountain, "Not everyone has the chance to be personally enlightened by the Divine Envoy.
You must work hard, see your true self, and understand the Light!
With your talent, Uncle believes you will achieve Enlightenment."
Although she didn't quite understand the peculiar terminology used by Uncle Terry, Aloe at this moment was filled with longing for the Divine Envoy on the Holy Mountain!
