Chapter 153: Holy Power (4)
“Holy power can also be channeled into weapons. I believe you’re already somewhat familiar with that concept,” Rakuza said.
“Of course,” Ketal replied. He remembered how Kalosia’s blessing had imbued his axe with divine energy.
“The method is essentially the same as when you try to infuse your body with holy power, except you direct it into a weapon rather than your flesh.”
“Hmm.” Ketal closed his eyes and prayed, wishing in his heart for his weapon to hold the power of the divine. Almost immediately, a golden aura began to coat his axe.
“Wow!” Ketal exclaimed. The axe’s pitch-black surface took on a shimmering gold, the contrast of colors making it look strikingly beautiful.
Rakuza murmured in admiration, “You adapt quickly. Plenty of believers struggle with this.”
“Doesn’t seem too hard,” Ketal remarked with a grin. “So, with this, I can vanquish evil, right?”
“Yes. Of course, demons will defend themselves, but if you can break through their defenses and strike their essence, it will work.”
“I see,” Ketal said, his eyes beaming with intrigue. At last, he could fight demons on his own.
Rakuza continued explaining, “Beyond simply imbuing weapons, you can do many other things with holy power. For example, you can impose constraints or agreements.”
“Constraints and agreements?”
“Yes. With the other party’s consent, you can place a restriction that prevents them from lying, or create a bell that rings whenever deceit is spoken. Things like that,” Rakuza explained.
