Wizard: I Add Points and Hunt Monsters

”Oh? So you’re awake...”

As Wei’en opened the workshop door, he saw Pavla standing in the center of the theater. A faint smile touched his lips. ”Miss Pavla, the new Saintess of the Dawn Church.”

”Heretic!”

The moment Pavla saw Wei’en, the horrific scene from the deck of the Kenzan-Frolov flashed in her mind. Her eyes filled with hatred and resolve.

Wei’en took a step forward, positioning himself in front of Shawa and Tina. His smile vanished. ”Want to do this?”

”Heretic, you killed so many people... the Lord of Judgment, Sablelo, and McCartney... Them! I... I will never forgive you!”

Pavla bit her lip. Her golden robes began to stir as if in a nonexistent wind, sometimes clinging tightly to her body and accentuating her curvaceous figure.

Then, a faint golden radiance bloomed around her. Within the light, one could vaguely make out an intricate pattern—its symmetrical lines looked very much like a golden scepter.

”You should know, you’re no match for me as you are now.”

Wei’en frowned. It wasn’t that he was worried he couldn’t win. Rather, his heart was as calm as still water; he couldn’t muster even a shred of hostility toward Pavla.

Even the slightest hint of killing intent, or even a simple malicious thought, was inexplicably twisted into feelings of friendliness and goodwill...

Clearly, he was incapable of harming Pavla!

”Sacred!”

At that moment, Pavla could feel a golden scepter lying within her Origin, its faint glow filling her body with the Power of Dawn Faith.

Such an immense Power of Faith made courage surge through her, and she burned with the desire to avenge the tragic deaths of Huberto and the others.

”Oh, great Lord of Dawn, in the name of the kind Angel, Amiraguli Xiaolong Laitening, I pray for your protection!”

Pavla’s voice was gentle and soft. Although her eyes were filled with the image of Wei’en as an evildoer, the golden radiance within her still forced a complex expression onto her face—a mixture of pity, kindness, and other conflicting emotions.

It was as if her expression and her words did not reflect the emotions she truly felt in her heart.

As her chant concluded, the faint golden radiance around her body suddenly flared, brilliantly illuminating the entire theater.

[You have been attacked by the Power of Dawn Faith. Due to your Origin Power exceeding 300, you are immune to this corruption. Evaluation: Authority is not omnipotent. Special Reward: Survival Points +50, Spirit Level +3, Resilience Level +3.]

Reading the message that appeared in his mind, Wei’en stared intently at Pavla. ’Authority is not omnipotent?’

’Then at least give me a hint! What are its specific weaknesses?’

”What a disgusting ability! But this is where it ends for you, isn’t it?”

Hm?

Pavla’s expression froze. Her dancing golden hair lifted slightly as she glanced upward.

’Why... why hadn’t the chant taught by her Authority drawn any attention from the Dawn Realm?’

’Not only that, but the Power of Faith within her was also being consumed at an alarming rate.’

”What... what did you do to me?”

”What did I do...” Wei’en breathed a sigh of relief. ’Thank goodness, the theater space really does prevent this Candidacy Saintess from connecting with her god.’ ”I’m just making you stay here quietly.”

SIZZLE...

Hm?

Wei’en glanced back and saw Miss Zombie’s body seemingly melting under the radiance, her skin starting to slough off in chunks. He quickly waved a hand. ”Tina, take Shawa and go back inside!”

A deep black glow had faintly appeared around the white-haired girl, resisting the Dawn Radiance. Hearing his command, she turned to Miss Zombie. ”Tina, understood.”

With that, she took Shawa by the hand and retreated back into the workshop.

CLICK.

The door shut.

Wei’en turned back to Pavla. ”You’d best retract that Power of Faith, Her Holiness the Candidacy Saintess Pavla!”

Pavla had also noticed what happened to Miss Zombie just now. She felt incredibly wronged. This evil Wizard had not only killed her companions and imprisoned her here, but now he was ordering her around...

”I won’t!”

Wei’en’s gaze turned cold. He raised his hand, a Revolver appearing in it, and his finger twitched, pulling the trigger.

His eyes were fixed on the spot by Pavla’s feet. He cleared his mind of everything related to her, focusing instead on his simple annoyance with that particular floorboard.

BANG, BANG-BANG!

Over a dozen bullets flew in a straight line, aimed directly at Pavla’s eyes, only to swerve at a bizarre angle just before reaching her and strike the wooden floor by her feet, shattering it.

Splinters of wood shot out in all directions. The ones that flew toward Pavla were instantly disintegrated by the Dawn Radiance.

”You...”

Pavla jumped, her heart pounding. For a terrifying moment, she thought the bullets were going to pierce her eyes. ”What are you trying to do?”

Wei’en looked at Pavla thoughtfully. ”So that’s how it works!”

’As long as she isn’t the target of the attack, and his thoughts have nothing to do with her, the collateral damage from his attacks can indeed harm the inheritor of this Goodness Authority.’

’If he could throw her into the sea and attract a school of Deep Sea Abominations, he could totally use the properties of his Corpse Explosion Skill to incidentally take her out...’

Hm?

’Can’t I even have a thought like that?’

’If I saw her fall into the water and get into trouble, would I be forced to save her?’

’Damn it, the power of this Goodness Authority is truly terrifying. Isn’t this just forcing a villain to repent and turn over a new leaf?’

Still, Wei’en now had a way to deal with Pa... hm, to deal with that woman!

The key was figuring out how to create the right environment to make his move...
