Section 6 The Chef

Section 6 Chef

"Go to the altar," said Asovin. "Take the spoils Carlisle brings to see if she is qualified to be a full member of the tribe."

The so-called altar is actually not far from the wizard's residence, just above the clearing ground in the center of the camp. It is a very simple altar made of stone and wood. It has dark icons and signs of Stainanes on it.

Someone began to take down the spoils on the horse's back and put them on the open space in front of the altar. There were more things on the horse's back than expected. In addition to the rabbits, wolves and wild goats mentioned earlier, they also included many colorful venomous snakes. All prey were initially treated: the skin was peeled off and the meat was smoked dry. For this solo hunt, this was a very abundant harvest.

Before coming here, Ash Rufate understood that this was the so-called ritual of adulthood among the barbarians. Unlike the gods in the star field, the beliefs of evil gods influenced all aspects of the lives of the Chaos believers. Many times, they used a simple way to deal with the problem: oracles.

The oracle of the evil god of Chaos is not as rare as that of the gods of the star field. For example, in this adult ceremony, members of a tribe must use their own practical actions to be recognized by God. Becoming a formal warrior, becoming a Chaos Warrior, becoming a God-selected Warrior, a champion warrior, and even a Chaos Lord, everything needs God-sanctioned recognition.

Asovin came to the altar and began to pronounce some profound sentences in a tone that no one could understand, and then lit the flames of the sacrifice on a ball of hay.

A few seconds later, the flame suddenly expanded in an abnormal way, even higher than Ahsovin's height. After such obvious signs appeared, the flame calmed down again and slowly extinguished.

Prince Huanyu has made the final judgment.

Someone in the crowd made a surprise voice. Because most people thought Claire had no hope, after all, she missed a great opportunity. She had a good crossbow in her hand, and the traveler did not have any armor. There was no doubt that Claire's approach proved her weakness and incompetence (and perhaps stupid). Although she brought back a lot of prey in the end, this approach would undoubtedly anger the gods.

But this time, the gods expressed their opinions in the most intuitive way. Claire's ability was recognized, and she was qualified to be one of the Chaos believers, and - of course, only theoretically - to go further.

Asovin turned his head. There was not much surprise on his face. Because to be honest, the girl did a good job - putting aside the matter of Aso Ruffat, her hunting in this desert was quite outstanding - so she admitted through Slaanesia that it was originally a 55-5-bit thing.

Especially this wolf skin. He noticed just now that there was no incompleteness on this skin. Perhaps it was this rare, complete skin that won the favor of Prince Huanyu.

"Welcome, Ashu Rufate." He kept his previous smile. Then he turned to face the others. "Cheer, there is another official member in our tribe. And, there is a guest here."

Later on this day, Ashu Rufate came to Claire's tent. It was a very large tent, enough for a family of three or four to live.

"Is this your tent? Do you live alone?" Ashu Rufate was a little surprised. "Where are your parents?"

"Diet." Claire replied in a simple way. "Two years ago, he died in a battle."

"Oh? What kind of battle?"

"A battle for water." Claire replied. "Our tribe won the final victory, but many warriors died in that battle. My father was... a Chaos warrior," she emphasized the word "warrior", "the kind that gets Chaos armor."

Ashrufate already knows that Chaos Warriors are actually divided into two types. One is the plunderers with a lower status, usually in the Chaos Legion as a lightweight unit. The other is the formal Chaos Warriors. The most obvious and intuitive difference between the two is whether they have Chaos Armor - the metal armor given to human believers by the evil god.

According to the news he received before, this grant of Chaos Armor is a mysterious ritual. When a Chaos believer is recognized by God, this armor will suddenly appear next to him. A common situation is when he wakes up and finds a set of armor suddenly appear.

"But I'm not sure if he is my real father." The girl shrugged, as if she was disdainful of Ash Rufate's expression. "Because my mother... is a wizard. Although not a very clever wizard, her magic finally made a mistake and turned herself into a pile of minced meat."

Ash Rufate couldn't figure out the logical relationship behind her words for a while.

"But everyone said I had the potential to be a Chaos Warrior." She sat on the blanket - it was a very obvious wool blanket. "So no one dared to bully me. So after they died, I was still alright."

Among Chaos Warriors, women are rare. Ashu Rufate is sure of this - because he killed and captured enough Chaos Warriors on the battlefield. However, there are indeed some.

She lay down on the blanket in the tent. She had been very tired these days, and then she felt exhausted and rushed up uncontrollably.

"I really don't understand what you southerners are thinking," she said suddenly.

"ah?"

"You just need...I said, you just need to find out your thing, the pendant blessed by the Prince of Joy. Everyone here will welcome you. Maybe the wizard will also ask you to be the leader of the tribe." She said. She really doesn't understand what the southern swordsman is thinking about. What is this? This is a shortcut to becoming a champion warrior! Thinking about the benefits he can get...but he doesn't seem to care at all. "It's a request!"

"If I become the leader of the tribe, I must bear the corresponding responsibility." Ashu Rufate sighed. "This is not what I want." I already have enough wealth and power in the southern kingdom, and I have no intention of staying in such a place where birds do not shit for a long time! He wanted to say this, but in the end he thought it would be better not to say it.

In the final analysis, he just came to save Xingke, not to build a country here - this is a meaningless adventure. There are three possibilities here. The first is that the Lord of Blood Tooth always brings Xingke with him. In this way, it is meaningless to take a tribal army to challenge him, because even the terror-torn lord will not be so mentally retarded that he does not know how to use hostages. The second is that the Lord of Blood Tooth handed over Xingke to someone. Or the third type, she was killed. No matter which one he had to face, his becoming the leader of a tribe will only have a negative impact on the action of saving people.

The only positive impact may be to inquire about news. Being a leader of a tribe will have considerable convenience for inquire about news. However, Ashu Rufat does not feel that he will encounter too much difficulty in inquiring about news, because he already knew before he set out that Lord Blood Tooth is a famous figure even among Lord Chaos.

So he planned it at the beginning. In fact, he heard from the prisoners that even in the northern wilderness, there would be some ascetics. Of course, the ascetics of the evil gods are different from those of the civilized world. The latter is generally seclusion and asceticism to prove his piety, while the former is to carry out challenges to please the gods of Chaos. In other words, there are actually some people wandering alone in the wilderness. At least when Ash Rufate acts alone, it will not cause too much problem. Because even the Chaos tribes maintain a respect for these people who can live alone.

This has been confirmed from Claire. In addition, she also said another thing, that is, this kind of "asceticism" is actually a shortcut to gaining a higher reputation. If the Gods of Chaos can be pleased, they will easily be promoted to the level of Chaos Champion or even Chaos Lord.

"You really don't like fighting?"

"Yes." Ashu Rufate said with the most sincere expression. It should be noted that this expression was learned from Ajin - he learned it specifically, because Ajin used facts to prove that this expression is really effective. Every time he looked at Ajin's sincere expression, Ashu Rufate couldn't understand whether the other party was telling the truth or lies, or half-true. Of course, Ajin did not notice this. Even if he noticed it, he didn't mind Ashu Rufate learning these tips from him.

"But you said you've experienced many battles." Claire still didn't give up.

"It's all for self-defense." Ash Rufate said. "Actually, I don't want to have so many battles myself."

While speaking, voices came from outside. Then, a man appeared at the door of the tent.

According to the standards of the southerners, this kind of behavior of not asking for help is very impolite, but Ashu Rufate did not understand the chaotic rules, so he did not protest against this behavior.

"Your name is Ashu Rufat?" The man looked at the two people in the tent and showed a smile. "They said you are a chef?"

"Yeah." Ashu Rufate admitted frankly.

"That's great. During dinner, everyone just needed a chef." The man said. He walked in without hesitation at this time. Although Claire showed a very obvious expression of displeasure on his face, he didn't say anything.

"But," he looked at Ashu Rufate. In fact, everyone could perceive the temperament of this stranger named Ashu Rufate. Although he claimed to be a chef, this was by no means the temperament of a chef. "A chef... is not worthy of Claire."

"Um..." Ashu Rufat looked back at Claire beside him. To be honest, he had never considered this issue at all. To be specific, he had not even considered this direction at all.

"Even Asovin thinks she has the potential to become a Chaos Warrior... or even go further." The man continued. "Everyone can detect the favor of Prince Huanyu. She is also the daughter of a wizard. In time, she may be able to show her talent."

"Okay, the conversation ends here. Chef. Now, it's time for you to show off your talents."
