I have to say that John's declaration of "hell" and the harsh environment of South Georgia really scared Harry and Hermione at the beginning.
Especially during this period at the end of July, Antarctica is the coldest polar night period.
Although South Georgia Island is not within the Antarctic Circle, it is only in the sub-Antarctic region.
But because it was only after seven in the morning when John came with his two children, it was still pitch black on the island, and the temperature was only minus ten degrees! There was also a blizzard blowing.
Having just suddenly switched from the warm summer to this extreme weather, Hermione and Harry, who were unprepared and thinly dressed, almost froze into popsicles.
However, the two of them only felt the biting cold wind for a few seconds before being enveloped by a warm holy light.
"Feel this power Harry, as for you, Hermione, your reaction is a bit too slow! You should have opened the Holy Light Shield as soon as possible!" John brought two children here, so naturally it is impossible for him to have true intentions. To torment them.
It's just that in extreme environments, it is indeed more conducive to the understanding of the Holy Light, and the Holy Light is indeed miraculous in resisting regular external harsh environments.
In other words, the two children were indeed too young, otherwise John would have come to South Georgia and went directly to the Antarctic. In order to train himself, John also stayed alone in the Antarctic polar night for a long time for two years.
"What I know is that the change of environment was too sudden. You did it on purpose!" Hermione had already activated the Holy Light at this time. Although she had not recovered immediately, she was no longer affected by the severe cold.
"Yes, I did do it on purpose! But if you are facing an enemy now, do you think he will greet you in advance?" John asked while continuing to use the holy light to drive away the cold for Harry.
Hermione was speechless. Although the little girl had a little ego, she was a smart person and she was also reasonable.
So when John said this, she recognized that what he said was reasonable, so she just started to pray to the Holy Light silently.
As she prayed, the holy light on her body became more and more dazzling, and the severe cold gradually left her.
"Is this magic? It feels so warm!" After Hermione stopped talking, Harry asked John curiously.
Compared to Hermione, who had already made some achievements in the Holy Light, Harry, who had no strength at all, should have been more seriously affected by the cold.
But John had already anticipated this, so he paid more attention to Harry than Hermione, who already mastered the Holy Light. In addition, the intensity of his Holy Light was not comparable to that of Hermione, so in his After using the Holy Light to drive away the cold, Harry recovered faster than Hermione, and now he doesn't feel any discomfort.
"No, this is not magic, but holy light. Like magic, it is a kind of extraordinary power!" John explained.
"Ah? So in this world, besides magic, are there many different kinds of extraordinary powers?" Harry was puzzled. "And aren't you wizards? How can you use this power called Holy Light?"
"That's not true. In fact, before I discovered the Holy Light, this world did only have one extraordinary power: magic! And it's true that we are wizards, but there is no rule that says a person can only master one extraordinary power. The only difference lies in the emphasis - just like being a wizard, some wizards focus on casting spells, and some focus on alchemy or potions." As the first person in the world to possess the power of Holy Light, John said that he There is nothing wrong with discovering the Holy Light, and this is also said within the church.
As for why a person can be a wizard, a knight, or a priest - reality is not a game. Just like no one has ever stipulated that a person can only engage in one profession, there is no saying that he can only master one kind of energy. .
Only games will characterize each profession for the sake of playability and balance. Otherwise, the Paladin is a profession transformed from a priest. How could he not have the abilities of a priest?
The difference, as John said, is just a matter of emphasis.
"I see, so Mr. Capet, you have discovered a new supernatural power alone? How amazing!" As a newbie who has never been exposed to the supernatural world before, Harry nodded in understanding and naturally used He looked at John with admiring eyes - even if he didn't quite understand the true meaning of it.
"Can I do that too?" Harry's eyes suddenly lit up.
Although he already knew that he would become a wizard in the future, wasn't that something in the future? It hasn't even been two days since I touched the wand, and I don't even know how to spell. It's still more than a month before school starts.
But this holy light is actually right in front of you, and the holy light spell is shining with golden light, which makes you look very handsome.
So... I want to learn!
"What's not possible? In my opinion, you have enough potential to become an excellent Paladin!" John said with a smile. I'm not afraid that you won't be able to learn, but I'm afraid that you won't learn. Harry Potter Children's shoes!
"Paladin? Is this the name you give a user of Holy Light? It sounds very majestic!" Harry sighed.
"Yes, to be precise, I named the Holy Light users two professional titles. One is the Paladin who can take into account both spell casting and close combat, and the other is a pure spell caster like a wizard, named Priest. , Hermione is a priest!" John said.
"Priest? Isn't that the name of Protestantism?" Harry asked doubtfully. Because he had been in constant contact with Father Thomas for some time in the past, Harry was now able to distinguish the difference between the church and Protestantism to a certain extent.
"Not entirely. In fact, the title pastor originally came from the church and was used to refer to people who perform sacramental ceremonies. It was only after the emergence of Protestantism that in order to distinguish itself from the Roman Church, it deliberately used this word instead. Father, it's not that this word is exclusive to Protestants. Moreover, the current church has also established that this word will be a special term for Holy Light casters in the future!" John explained patiently.
"I see, then why do you think I will become a paladin instead of a priest? According to you, paladin needs close combat, but I am so thin..." Harry nodded and wondered.
"Harry, first of all, I have to make it clear to you that casting spells and fighting are only the abilities of the Paladin, not requirements. In order to become a Paladin, in addition to a firm belief and the concept of doing good, you also need to follow The virtues represented by the Holy Light... humility, integrity, mercy, bravery, justice, sacrifice, honor, soul!" John said in a deceptive way.
Hermione, who was praying to maintain the intensity of the Holy Light, almost collapsed when she heard John deceiving Harry.
She already understood the nature of the Holy Light, although John had already vaccinated her and said that he would use different methods when preaching the Holy Light to different people - after all, for most people, persuading people Universal values of kindness are important.
But when she actually saw John do this, she was still a little dazed.
But she wouldn't say anything more because of it.
One is that her relationship with Harry is not that close.
Secondly, she felt that using this method to induce people to do good was not a bad thing. After all, if the master of the Holy Light went astray, it would be much worse than ordinary people. There are a lot of negative examples in the magic world. After reading so many Through the book, Hermione also learned a lot about the cruel behavior of the dark wizards in the magical world.
"...I see...but aren't these eight virtues the virtues of knights in the Middle Ages?" Although Harry has little knowledge due to his living environment, it does not mean that he does not understand anything. The eight virtues of knights and the round table He has heard some of the knight's regulations.
"Is this so strange? The Paladin is also a knight, but it represents the Holy Light, so it is named Holy! And unlike those knights in history, most of them only used these eight virtues as slogans. If the Holy Knight Knights who cannot follow these virtues will really be abandoned by the Holy Light!" John said to Harry solemnly, "So Harry, you want to become a paladin who can hoe the strong and help the weak, punish evil and promote good. ?"
