The Inquisitor is the Lord of Another World
Chapter 1
Eslonian was a small city located in the center of Helia. It was an area where the industries of the surrounding cities grew rapidly.
After the development of the Delo Beta industrial area, the population increased. However, due to the decline of the industrial area and the invasion of the vampires, there were very few people in the area.
Now, the area had been divided into several large areas. Most of the area had fallen. It was not until the humans formed the three major guilds and built a human base to fight against the vampires in the northwest of Eslonian that the situation improved.
That place was called the Field Headquarters.
The three big guilds that stood out in Eslonian were tall, glorious, and unique.
The Military Guild used all kinds of firearms, artillery, and chariots. The Warrior Guild used all kinds of swords and knives. The Clergy Guild used scepters and crosses.
Everyone had different standpoints. For example, the Military Guild was established by the government and mainly listened to the government's arrangements. The Warrior Guild was jointly established by various martial artists. The entry requirements were not as strict as the Military Guild. The Clergy Guild was the most special.
Clergy were divided into two major branches: healing and blessing. They listened to the oracle, purified the filth, removed the curse of the vampires, and could also enhance the abilities of their companions.
Therefore, clergy was a very popular profession in the world.
However, not everyone could join the Clergy Guild. Magic power was the criterion. Only those with innate magic power were qualified to join the Clergy Guild because they could use the magic skills of the clergy without any hindrance.
Those with innate magic power would be sent to the Clergy Guild after they were born. Clergy were too few in number, and those with powerful magic power were even rarer.
However, only clergy with healing abilities could heal the wounds and curses caused by the vampires.
As a member of the clergy whose name spread far and wide, Ivan was very bored at the moment. He yawned loudly and stroked the patterns on the cross again and again out of boredom.
"Bored?"
The black-haired young man blinked at him. His dark purple eyes gave him a mysterious feeling.
The young man was not old. There was a scar on his left face that extended from his forehead to his entire face. It looked a little scary, but in fact, the young man was very gentle.
"Karen, I regret becoming a senior member of the guild." Ivan's serious expression made the young man smile.
"You are an authoritative figure. Even if you don't want to, you will definitely be in this position. Aren't I the same? If I could, I wouldn't want to be a cadre."
Seeing her friend's sad face, Karen couldn't help but mischievously say, "I heard that President Rakhmanov is going to let you take over his position."
There were two presidents of the Clergy Guild. One was Rakhmanov, who was a healer and was also Ivan's teacher. The other was Hannibal, who was a blesser. Both of them were old men in their sixties, and it was indeed time for them to look for successors.
Ivan's eyes widened. "Stop joking. Who wants that lousy position? I can't stand it. Being a cadre is driving me crazy."
Below the president were five elders, and below them were ten deacons. The rest were divided into high-ranking believers, mid-ranking believers, and disciples according to their rank and reputation.
Positions had always been occupied by the capable, and this was even more so in this era of constant war. Not only did it represent power and honor, but it was also a symbol of strength.
Ivan's rank and reputation were almost full. Last month, he was the first to undergo the third class advancement of a clergy. He should have been an elder long ago, but he was only allowed to be a deacon after he cried and threw a tantrum.
After becoming a cadre, there were naturally more things to do. His time in offline dungeons was squeezed out, countless paperwork increased, and he also had to deal with disputes. The most troublesome thing for him was attending boring meetings like this. He felt like he was going to explode on the spot.
Although Ivan was a healer, he had a very bellicose personality. He was always the first to open up a path in dungeons, causing swordsmen and swordsmen to lose their jobs, but no one dared to say anything.
What a joke. The reputation of the most violent clergy of mankind was not just for show. When he fought, those swordsmen and swordsmen with thick skin and high defense would complain incessantly.
Not only was his strength, but even his financial resources were also one of the best.
The equipment dropped from high-level dungeons could be sold for a lot of money, not to mention the rare materials dropped. The healer clergy itself was the most economical profession. They did not need to bring medicine when they went out. They could bring equipment with automatic mana regeneration and even save on blue potions.
Thinking of the old man's hints, Ivan frowned. "Although the teacher has that intention, I don't think it's possible."
Karen's smile paused for a moment and slowly disappeared. "That's true. After all, your bloodline … Sigh, this is the thinking of those old fogeys. But I think it's better not to be the president."
Ivan's strength was indeed the strongest in the guild, but this strength was inseparable from his bloodline.
Who asked him to be a hybrid between a demonic spirit and a human?
The demonic spirit race was created in the 15th century in the northern part of Eslonia, when the Ladkia region was ruled by vampires, by the witch Kalisas.
The victims who were sucked by vampires were born as demonic spirits through her magic power. Therefore, some people called them "half-vampires."
Although demonic spirits fought against vampires like humans, they could not be recognized by humans because of the vampire bloodline in their bodies. Therefore, they could only rely on their own strength to create their own home.
They believed in the witch Kalisas, worshipped the power of nature, and admired the four elemental spirits of nature. They were friends with the spirits and trusted each other and gave each other strength. Therefore, their magic power was strong.
Although they stood on the side of humans, because they were a race born of vampires, for humans who hated vampires, it was still difficult to accept.
Towards demonic spirits, humans had always maintained three attitudes: acceptance, rejection, and neutrality.
In this era, people who rejected demonic spirits accounted for 70% of the population. This was because humans were getting stronger day by day and began to be blindly confident. They disdained the power of demonic spirits and even occasionally fought with them.
Because of this, demonic spirits gradually began to distance themselves from humans. It was quite a tripartite situation.
As a mixed-blood, Ivan's position in the guild was actually very subtle. However, because of his strong human bloodline, he did not have the symbol of a demonic spirit (long ears), and he was born with great magic power, he was a powerful force that could not be ignored.
Rather than being accepted, it was more accurate to say that he was being used.
Some of the more stubborn ones would even give him a hard time.
And this meeting was a debate between the old and new factions of the various large guilds about demonic spirits. It was really boring.
Karen and Ivan grew up together and had a very good relationship. They were always together in dungeons and fights, so they had great chemistry.
As a Swordsman with high HP and defense, he never cared about Ivan stealing his job. Instead, he always supported Ivan from behind, allowing him to fight at the frontlines without worry.
"Let's sneak away later and make a trip to Bartoli Palace?"
"No, I have all my equipment, and I promised to catch a pet for Mies later."
There were two types of pets. One was a wild wolf cub that could be tamed by all three races, and the other was a race's unique pet that had been obtained through many trials.
Demonic spirits had fairies, humans had smart tanks, and vampires had blood bats.
Pets could be given attributes at level 10, and they could choose one of the fourteen attributes. As for what was given, it depended on your luck.
If there was an attribute that you did not want, you could either catch a new one to nurture or exchange it with someone else.
Of course, you could sell it for money, but some of the attributes were too trashy, such as HP or MP, so they could only be set free.
Occasionally, there would be trades between races, so very few people would get a race's pet. Besides, the trials were still quite difficult.
Although pets had spirituality, they would only be loyal to the person who had the corresponding summoning stone. They would help warn enemies, pick up equipment and gold coins, and do more work, so they would grow faster. Of course, they could also be set free to grow slowly, but that speed would be much, much slower.
"Mies?
Ah, that little guy has been pestering you recently. "
The face of a shota appeared in his mind. It was a little guy who had just joined the guild and was Ivan's die-hard fan.
"He's very cute."
The smile on Ivan's lips widened. The little guy wanted to act coquettishly with him, but he was very respectful and did not dare to offend him. It was very cute. What Ivan liked the most was that pair of clear eyes.
Worship, yearning, without a trace of impurity.
"You accepted him as your disciple?"
Ivan nodded. Karen laughed mockingly. "You're not a pedophile, are you?"
Ivan's face darkened, and he hit Karen's head with the cross. "Get lost, what are you thinking?"
