Chapter 394: Will You Please Go Out With Me?
"YOU?! SEEKING PERMANENT BLESSINGS?! BWAHAHAHAHA! YOU FOOL, DO YOU TRULY BELIEVE THE GODS WOULD GRANT PERMANENT BLESSINGS SO EASILY?! WE DON'T HAND THEM OUT FOR NOTHING. YOU MUST PROCURE THEM YOURSELF." The crazy priest laughed uproariously, making it difficult for Shye to resist slapping the guy's face.
'How was this bastard a priest?!' Shye inwardly raged.
Just when he was about to speak, the priest continued: "There's just no way the Gods would allow you to find a pe–?!"
Not wanting to hear more of the priest's bullshit, Shye directly took out two permanent blessings to shut the hateful bastard up once and for all.
"Y-You! Where did you get those?"
"None of your business. The Gods know that I obtained these through legal means. Now, will you grant me my blessings or should I report you to the archpriest?"
Hearing that the archpriest would be involved if he kept yapping, the priest shut his mouth with resentment.
It was evident that the guy was scared of the archpriest.
Finally obtaining what he wanted, Shye nodded in satisfaction, handing the permanent blessings to the priest before walking toward the center of the blessing magic circle.
With hints of a mild tantrum, the priest carried on with the procedures. The guy truly didn't want to do this but he had no choice.
He didn't want to be on the receiving end of the archpriest's wrath again.
After a brief pause, a soft scarlet glow bathed the entire chamber, as a bear emblem, no larger than a mung bean, began to materialize next to the raven emblem, symbolizing the blessing of... lesser intelligence.
Following that, as soon as the bear emblem finished forming, it emitted a fleeting crimson glow before dimming, ultimately resembling nothing more than a tiny black speck on Shye's back.
The familiar sensation of warmth then surged through Shye's body, eliciting a soft sigh of comfort from him.
Realizing that the ritual for the first permanent blessing had been completed successfully, the frown on the crazy priest's face deepened.
Still, he didn't dare speak as he didn't want to be reported to the archpriest. Shye had obtained a monastery pass, after all.
He had every right to be granted a blessing.
After a few more minutes, the second ritual also finished, leaving a similar-sized emblem of a cheetah's face on Shye's back.

"Haha…Hahahahaha!"
Taking one good look at his current status, Shye couldn't help but laugh uproariously, making the annoying priest flinch and slightly panic once more.
"Y-You!! Have you gone crazy!! Sh*t! This demon…I have to flee now!"
The bastard was truly a bit too crazy. It was simply impossible to know what was going through the guy's head.
Abruptly stifling his laughter, Shye watched the priest leave with a confused face.
'What the…f*ck? Oh well, saves me the trouble of thanking the guy when I actually don't want to!'
Leaving the Balkrow Monastery with a satisfied smile, Shye returned to the guild, enjoying the gazes of admiration coming his way as he ascended the stairs towards the second floor's special lounge, where Luna Gonzales, the widely recognized strongest adventurer of Raven's Blade Balkrow Branch, was waiting for him.
'Ask me out…the heck is the guild master saying?'
Shye couldn't help but take one deep breath before entering the special lounge to look for Luna.
As he did, heads inevitably turned his way.
Although most of the emeralds now looked at him with indifference, there were still quite a few who didn't acknowledge him and didn't like the fact that he was accessing the special lounge as he pleased, despite the warnings from Corvus.
Shye didn't give a single sh*t about their displeased gazes though as he could simply slap the f*ck out of most of them if they dared make a move.
He had one goal: to ask Luna Gonzales why she was looking for him.
She stood out like a sore thumb. Hence, Shye found her fairly easily.
Approaching Luna with a slightly anxious heart, he feigned indifference upon arriving in front of her and successfully capturing her attention.
"I heard you're looking for me?"
A simple question… However, it visibly incurred almost everyone's wrath. It seemed that she was not only respected in terms of strength but also beauty.
Well…she was undeniably attractive with her striking silver hair, well-defined physique, generous bosom, perky butt, and gorgeous facial features so Shye could understand their hostility.
After all, Luna's beauty could cause the downfall of an entire city.
'Hmmph! Why would I be scared of all of you? It's not like I'm trying to–'
"Will you please go out with me?"
