is the son of the Holy See, but the master of black magic

Chapter 9 What is the reward?
At this time, it has not been long since the start of the assessment in this field.

The young people participating in the assessment are basically still struggling to keep their books.

Lily, the nun favored by the professor, is also in this state.

"Peer set off", the rising clouds, therefore become particularly conspicuous.

Many people were surprised to find that the cloud represents Andy who they thought had given up before!
And when they saw the scene in the cloud group clearly, they were even more surprised.

Because the black-haired boy Andy not only remembers fast, but also writes fast!
Moreover, the font is exquisite and elegant, not scribbled at all, and the constant friction between the tip of the pen and the paper seems to be drawing a beautiful painting!
It can be said that it breaks common sense to have such quality at such a speed!
Quite surprised, everything was attributed to talent, so the exclamation continued.

"Really beautiful words, worthy of a painting genius."

"I don't quite understand. Are painting and writing connected?"

"Looking at the situation of the rising of the cloud, he is not wrong..."

Buzzing voices sounded from all areas of the auditorium one after another, and the referees in the judging booth were also whispering to each other.

"With such a good memory, it would be a pity not to be a scribe."

"Scribe? This boy can exorcise demons just by scribbling. A painter or exorcist is his career direction."

"That's why I said it's a pity. Artists don't need this level of memory talent at all..."

The chaotic conversation sounded like waves, and when it reached the second floor, it became a little more hazy.

At the VIP seat, Bishop Norman was quietly observing the "professor" across the table.

It seems to be judging what the professor who was "slapped in the face" just now is thinking.

However, the professor at this time was observing Andy's figure below with a deep expression, without any expression of anger on his face.

He didn't seem to care much about his previous misjudgment.

But not caring about this doesn't mean that the way he looked at Andy was still the same as when he first started.

"Life is like that."

After re-examining Andy, the old professor said: "No one can guarantee that his judgment is completely correct."

"But it doesn't matter."

"If you recognize a mistake, just correct it in time."

"It's actually not that exaggerated."

Bishop Norman "comforted" and said: "There is a disease called hypermemory. I think the child's behavior just now is the same as suffering from this disease."

"Tell me, that's not a good thing. If you remember everything, you will have mental problems sooner or later."

"Maybe."

The professor was noncommittal when he heard the words, thought for a while, and changed the subject: "What is the next level?"

"Willpower."

Bishop Norman replied, "Under the instigation of the voice of the devil, whoever persists the longest will win the final victory."

"The voice of the devil..."

The professor was thoughtful when he heard the words, "In the face of such a scene, if you don't have the foundation of religious theology, I'm afraid you won't be able to last long, right?"

"Yes."

Bishop Norman nodded, and said meaningfully: "And for that child, this test is extremely difficult."

"Oh? What do you say?"

"He is a young man who has experienced hardships. This kind of person is always more likely to be led astray."

……

the other side.

While the two were discussing the content of the next level, Sister Lily had already memorized most of the ledger.

She was the second fastest among all the young people who participated in the assessment.

Faster than those reserve scribes.

If it weren't for Andy's accident, her performance would definitely attract a lot of surprised eyes.

Because Lily is not "professional".

Although the profession of a nun needs to memorize various religious and theological classics, it does not need to be good at rote memorization at all.

The reason why Sister Lily can be so fast is simple.

She was born with a photographic memory.

She loved reading since she was a child, and she also subtly developed the ability to read quickly.

The girl is not a person who likes to show off, so no one knows about her specialties except herself.

But now, she felt that there was no need to hide any more.

It's not because she changed her temper, but because she wants to win the "reward" for this assessment.

"The normal assessment is just a kind of assessment. After passing, you can be baptized to join the church and become an extraordinary person."

"But if you show some kind of talent far beyond your peers in the assessment, then you may be selected."

Before coming here, her father had said this to her.

"Selected?"

Lily was puzzled at the time, "What does this mean?"

"The Starry Temple is a very special place. The special thing is not because of its past history, but because of its other name."

"What is it?"

"Hall of Valor."

My father said at the time: "Any hero who has been honored in the Starry Temple, or an extraordinary person who is baptized here to join the church, will leave some marks in the building after death."

"That is equivalent to a kind of inheritance."

"Will this make a person directly a Transcendent?"

"Of course not, but if you can obtain the approval of those brand marks in the assessment, you may be endowed with some kind of extraordinary knowledge, or some kind of extraordinary item."

"And this will make your next extraordinary journey smoother..."

This conversation changed Lily's originally intended low-key attitude.

Because the way to gain recognition is to express yourself as much as possible and strive to fit a certain brand.

If the ability is sufficient, it can even be recognized by multiple brands.

But, to be honest, she didn't have much hope for it before.

Because she didn't think the assessment would give her a chance to show her memory.

After all she was a nun, not a scribe.

In the end, who would have thought that the impossible thing actually happened!
"But I hate the attention..."

The girl who started writing silently was somewhat hesitant.

Because she didn't think that among the people who participated in the assessment this time, anyone could beat her in terms of memory.

This is not arrogance, but a kind of self-confidence in one's own strength.

She can say that she knows all the people of the same age outside the fantasy world, and she has learned the details of all of them.

The only possible accident is Andy, the outsider.

But that boy had an extremely fatal disadvantage in the assessment, especially in this first assessment.

That is, there is a huge gap between his real body and the simulated healthy body in the illusion.

Like a person who has been stuck in a quagmire for many years and suddenly falls into the sea.

Although there is no such harsh silt around, but the certain influence left in the mind due to being imprisoned all the year round does not mean that it will disappear if it disappears.

That takes a long time to get used to.

If you have poor adaptability, you may even feel dizzy and groggy for a period of time.

This is a piece of knowledge she has seen in a relatively unpopular book about the soul. In that book, there is an example very similar to Andy.

Therefore, in Sister Lily's view, Andy's threat is not great.

He might even come last!

"However, as long as he gets through this level, he should be able to adapt to the next level."

Lily thought about it.

"Is this considered luck?"

"If the first level is that he relies on his famous paintings, the ending must be bad..."

Thinking about this matter vaguely in her mind, the girl had already finished copying the ledger with two minds.

"The correct rate should be around 80.00%."

After thinking silently, she chose to quit the assessment illusion.

Then, before she had time to blink, the girl was stunned by the large amount of buzzing noises coming from the direction of the auditorium around her.

"Oh my god, I'm really not used to this kind of attention—"

"Hey?"

"It's not me?"

Lily was stunned for a few seconds because of this, and then looked in the direction the audience was pointing at.

The black-haired boy sitting quietly on the stone chair not far away appeared in her sight.

"Is he a very adaptable person?"

Lily was surprised by this, "Or, the information recorded in that book is wrong?"

The common sense in my mind seems to be challenged at this moment.

But I didn't pay more attention to this issue.

Because when she looked up at the white mist above the boy's head, she froze again.

At the end of the first level of assessment, the illusionary scene naturally disappeared in the white mist, but the height that floated to the top of the church has already revealed what Andy's grades are.

"This height..."

After a little calculation, Sister Lily looked dazed.

It is impossible to calculate how quickly it will be completed, because the height of the Starry Temple limits the rise of the white mist.

But she can still understand the accuracy of the ledger transcription.

That is obviously [-]% correct!

However, such a thick stack of ledgers...

How could he be completely right?

Is there no time to look at the eyes?

How is this done?
The girl who consciously had a superior memory and was proud of it was a little dazed at this moment, with a blank expression, like a goose.
