Chapter 1108: Sacred item


    ?


    The moment that this happened, I looked at the priest to see if he knew what was happening. It was just that all I saw was him looking intently at my hand and the glowing ring.


    The look on his face showed that he knew what was happening, only I had no idea why he was acting this way. With the trace of excitement that was in his eyes, it seemed like he had discovered something that he was very happy to see.


    At the same time, the way that he looked at the glowing ring was almost as if he had expected this to happen.


    After looking for a bit, it seemed that he turned to look at the Mark of God that was on the back of my hand.


    I didn''t hide it as I waited for him to calm down since I knew that it would be meaningless to ask him a question like this.


    Only when he seemed a bit calmer did I ask, "What is this thing?"


    The priest didn''t look up at me as he continued looking at the Mark of God that was on my hand. As he looked at it, he said, "It''s very simple, this is a sacred item."


    "Sacred item?" I repeated in a confused voice before suddenly realizing something.


    I knew what he was talking about since I had a sacred item as well.


    It was the Staff of Earth that the dwarves had given me, though they called it a relic instead of a sacred item.


    Though it didn''t matter what they called it since it had the same meaning.


    It meant that this item was something that was bestowed upon this world by the gods.


    While I didn''t know which god this sacred item was rted to, I could guess if it was activated by the Mark of God on my hand.


    After a moment of silence, the priest looked up at me and said with a smile, "It''s easier if I show you. Can you take your hand off the ring for a moment?"


    I nodded before following his instructions.


    Once my hand came off the ring, the priest reached out to grab it.


    However, the moment that his hand came in contact...he didn''t actually make contact with the ring. His hand seemed to go right through the ring, as if the ring wasn''t even there.


    After moving his hand through the ring for a while, he pulled his hand back and grabbed the cloth that was around the ring to lift it up.


    Holding that ring on the cloth in his palm, he looked at me to say, "As you can see, this ring isn''t an object of this world. It is an object that was bestowed upon us by the lords in heaven themselves, so it cannot be touched by a mortal. That is why it''s a sacred item."


    Then as if he felt like he should exin, the priest added, "Of course, I can touch it since this cloth is a special cloth that is imbued with holy energy that allows us to touch this sacred item."


    In a more excited voice, the priest continued by saying, "As for you...you have the ability to touch it without the cloth because of the mark that is on your hand. It''s a sign that you are the one that was chosen by the lord."


    The way that he said this, it was almost as if there was a trace of fanaticism in his voice. Especially with the way that he looked at the Mark of God that was on the back of my hand. I knew that I had been tricked in a sense.


    This was an item that would react to the power of god, which meant that it would react to the Mark of God that was on my hand. The moment that I touched it, it would draw on the power of the Mark of God to reveal its true powers like that.


    Though I didn''t really know what kind of powers it had since it didn''te to me like with the Staff of Earth.


    I would have needed to check this ring in depth to understand what powers it held.


    But there was no need for that as the priest actually exined what kind of sacred relic this


    was.


    It was a ring that was bestowed upon them by Solista, a ring that contained the power of the


    sun.


    By that, it meant that this ring contained the power of purification and the power of mes. If one had the holy energy needed to activate this ring, they would be able to conjure the purifying light and the purifying mes of Solista.


    Just based on this, there was no doubting the power of this ring.


    Though from my experience with the Staff of Earth, I was almost certain that the mileage on this thing wouldn''t be good. It would be just like the Staff of Earth, where it would take a lot of mana to activate.


    Still, this was certainly a very good relic to have if I could have it.


    If this was still the world of the game, there was no doubt that this thing would be considered a S Rank item.


    So there was a part of me that wanted this thing for myself.


    Though I knew that this wouldn''t be possible since it was a special sacred item that belonged to the Holy Empire. Or it was better to say that this was a special sacred item that belonged to the Solista Religion.


    It was not something that they would give up that easily.


    After he finished exining what the powers of the ring were, the priest suddenly looked up at me which caught me off guard.


    Looking at me with a serious look, he said, "Your majesty, do you want to try it out?"


    I looked at him with a confused and surprised look, but the expression on his face made it seem like he wasn''t joking about this.N?v(el)B\\jnn


    So my curiosity overwhelmed me and I slowly gave a nod.


    "Then let''s find a ce to test this out." The priest said while revealing a smile.
