Origin Legend: Heroic Hymn

“Hey, we’re here!”

Ling Feng raised his head and saw an ancient mansion in front of him. On the gate hung a sign with five large characters "Embroidery of Wings". Next to the characters was a round badge made up of a pair of angel wings. Is this the guild?

"What are you doing? Let's go!"

Dong Yu ran over and pulled Ling Feng into the mansion. The style of the mansion was the opposite of its simple and quaint exterior, and it gave people a feeling of blood boiling after entering.

All kinds of people were drinking, chatting about what happened during their missions, and occasionally bursting into hearty laughter.

"how do you feel?"

Dong Yu stood beside Ling Feng, with a smile on her face. Ling Feng looked at Dong Yu. Is this the guild? He asked himself for the second time.

"fine……"

"Stop right there! I'm not done with you. You stole my dessert again! Dong Yu? You're just in time. Catch Kurt. I'll treat you to a new dessert!"

A sturdy middle-aged man in his forties who looked like a chef was running towards Dong Yu with a kitchen knife in his hand, chasing a young man in a white magic robe with dessert residue on his mouth.

The young man named Kurt obviously also saw Dong Yu and immediately hid behind Dong Yu.

"Xiaoyu, help!!!"

"President, you didn't steal Uncle Bruder's dessert again, did you?"

"Uh... it smells so good... I can't help it..."

The young man scratched his head. At this time, Bruder also caught up here, and Kurt immediately hid behind Dong Yu again.

"Don't think that I can do nothing if you hide behind Xiaoyu. Come out and don't block Xiaoyu."

"Uh...Uncle Bruder, it's just a piece of dessert. Don't be like this. He is the president after all."

Dong Yu hurriedly stopped Bruder and snatched the kitchen knife from his hand.

"President? Have you ever seen such a greedy president? Well, I'll let you go today for your sake. Kurt, if you eat again, I'll show you how I'll deal with you. Humph! Xiaoyu, when you leave later, come to my place and get some desserts to eat."

"Why! It's not fair!"

"How dare you say it's unfair? Just tell me how much you ate!"

"Um... not much... just a little bit! Ahahaha!"

"Not enough? You ate a week's supply of desserts!"

As Bruder said this, he was about to rush over again. Dong Yu quickly played the good guy and hugged the furious Bruder.

"Ah, Uncle Bruder, calm down, you go first, I have something else to talk to the president about."

Dong Yu pushed Bruder to the kitchen, continuing to comfort him along the way.

"President, you are still so unreliable..."

"Hey hey... by the way, what do you want to talk to me about? What about this?"

Kurt then realized that there was someone standing next to him. He looked at Ling Feng in confusion. Ling Feng looked at Kurt helplessly. Is my presence so low?

"Um, this is a man who is a cat summoner, um, probably! By the way, this guy is called Ling Feng, please give him more guidance in the future!"

"Cat Summoner? Oh! Irelia! Yeah! I get it!"

Kurt was thinking about it and enjoying himself, with an ambiguous smile on his face. When Ling Feng saw him like this, he knew that someone had misunderstood him again, and he hurriedly explained in a panic.

"I say... that... Mr. President, it's actually not what you think... This matter is a bit complicated, and I can't explain it clearly at the moment. I will explain it to you slowly when I have time."

"It's okay, take your time. I'm very interested and I have plenty of time. Where should I start? Why don't we sit over there and chat slowly! Bruder, make me a pot of tea."

Kurt brought the two of them to the bar. Ling Feng's hands hung limply, and he sat next to the president. Then he told the president what had happened in detail.

"Well, in a sense, he is indeed Irelia's man."

"Just accept your fate!"

Dong Yu patted Ling Feng on the shoulder and Ling Feng sighed deeply.

"I'm tired, I don't want to say anything more, ah——"

"Hmm! Big news! Big news! Starting today, we have a new guild member joining us! His name is Ling Feng! Please take good care of the new guy!"

Kurt used telepathy to release this news to the minds of all guild members.

Ling Feng's eyes were filled with tears, unable to hide his gratitude. The cheers coming from all directions echoed in his ears, making him deeply feel the enthusiasm of this guild.

For a homeless child, the warm atmosphere of the guild can be said to be his greatest comfort! Just when Ling Feng wanted to thank the president, the president's next words completely stunned him:

"Oh, by the way, Ling Feng is Irelia's man, so everyone should give him guidance in all aspects in the future!"

“Ohhhhh~”

The surroundings suddenly became lively!

"Irelia? Is that the summoner?"

"The new guy is pretty good! He managed to get her right after he came in!"

"Damn it! I'm a step too late! That guy got there first!"

"Ah! My goddess... that guy actually defiled the existence of the goddess!"

"Irelia's personal guards! Assemble! Assemble! The hunt is about to begin! Everyone, hurry up! Move faster!"

"Look at those stupid men, what stupid things are they doing?"

Ling Feng, who had just joined the guild, immediately became the target of public criticism. A feeling of powerlessness instantly invaded his whole body, causing Ling Feng to helplessly lie down on the bar, with the thought of committing suicide coming to his mind. There was only one thing left in his mind: "Why am I so miserable?"

"Haha, it's okay! Everyone is still the same as before, just talking about it."

Ling Feng slowly raised his head when he heard the president's words, but what he saw was not the scene he had imagined:

Everyone in the guild had a friendly smile on their face, and some picked up their glasses to celebrate the new partners joining;

Some talked about what the cat had done before;

Some people appear unmoved on the surface, but their mouth corners clearly show an upward curve;

Even the men who were cursing grinned and patted their companions on the shoulders heroically.

Everyone was celebrating the arrival of the new partner in their own unique way. Ling Feng was stunned looking at everyone in the guild. At this time, a sigh came from an older woman beside him.

"Really? None of you can restrain yourself! Aren't you afraid of scaring off the newcomers?"

Ling Feng turned around and saw a 40-year-old dwarf woman standing next to him. She was wearing a sleeveless long skirt, with strong muscles showing on her skin exposed to the air. She was holding a thick book in her hand, and the black-framed glasses she wore showed that she was well-read.

"Hello! Young man, my name is Lily. As you can see, my race is dwarf, and I currently serve as the secretary of the guild. Now please follow me, I will take you through the membership procedures!"

"Okay, please give me your guidance, Aunt Lily."

When Lily heard Ling Feng's name, an expression of obvious dissatisfaction appeared on her face, which made Ling Feng feel timid.

"Ah? Auntie? Who are you calling? It's Sister Lily! Sister, do you know? Remember it!"

"Yes! Sister Lily, I remember it!"

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

Just like that, Ling Feng was brought into a room with distinct light and dark. A square table was placed vertically at the junction of light and dark in the room, and long chairs were placed at both ends of the table, in the light and dark areas.

Lily walked around the table to the other side, stood at the boundary between light and darkness, and spoke to Ling Feng with a smile on her face.

"Okay, please take a seat wherever you feel comfortable."

Ling Feng looked at the benches on both sides of the table, hesitating which side to sit on. Hearing Lily's urging, he took a deep breath, walked to the dark bench and sat down. Lily nodded in satisfaction and sat on the bench opposite Ling Feng.

"Haha, I like straightforward kids like you. Okay! Then I'll mainly tell you about the deeds of the Dark God!"

"Hmm? Why the Dark God?"

"This is your inner choice! This room can reflect your inner self, and it also serves as our guild's prayer room.

The prayers here can be conveyed to the two creator gods of this world, the God of Light and the God of Darkness.

When praying, the believers of the God of Light will sit on the well-lit chairs on this side, while the believers of the God of Darkness will sit on the poorly lit chairs on your side.

So, with your inner choice, you chose to believe in the Dark God! And the Dark God will grant you his grace after you join the guild."

"Oh! I see. To cultivate faith, you need to know more about the Dark God. Am I right?"

"Yes, that's right. That's why I like smart children. Legend has it that..."

After the explanation, Lily began to tell the legend of the Dark God. Ling Feng listened carefully and gradually began to develop faith in the Dark God in his heart.

"In short, the Dark God is the god who guides the ending of life and provides rebirth for life. He is in charge of the concept of "darkness" in this world! And light and darkness are the origin of the world."

"Well, I roughly understand it! Thank you, Sister Lily."

"Then let's go through the initiation formalities! Come and put your hands on this parchment!"

Ling Feng followed Lily's instructions and covered his hands with the parchment.

"Recite the following words silently in your heart: 'I, Ling Feng, hereby swear to become a believer of the Dark God! And from today on, I will join the emblem of the Wings. I will work together with my brothers and sisters in the guild, support each other, and become a member of this big family!' Okay, please close your eyes and carve your oath with your heart!"

Ling Feng followed Lily's instructions without hesitation. Just as he silently recited the last word, he vaguely felt an unexpected heat on the back of his hand.

When he opened his eyes, he saw the guild emblem on the back of his hand. Ling Feng looked at Lily curiously.

"This is the guild's emblem! Did I successfully join the guild?"

"Yes, the membership fee can be paid after completing the commissioned task. It's okay."

"So what do I do next?"

Lily took out a round object and handed it to Ling Feng.

"First, please accept this! This is the badge of our guild. With the president's message, you can hear it within 50,000 miles. Also, do you see the button in the center of the badge? Press it and see!"

Ling Feng followed Lily's instructions and pressed the button. A blue light panel appeared in front of him. His basic information was on the panel.

"Come, let me see your basic attributes after receiving the favor! This is the basis for you to choose a combat profession in the future!"

"Okay, please!"

After saying that, Ling Feng made way and let Lily sit next to him.

“我看看噢，力量：12、魔力：45、体力：268、耐力：21、抗性：32、敏捷：68、精力:194、幸运：1695？恩？为什么你幸运值这么高？

Never mind. This has nothing to do with career choice, so it doesn’t matter. But it is indeed so unusual that I can’t help but say something. Maybe you are born lucky! "

"You're such an exaggeration! What kind of career can I choose with my attributes?"

"Looking at your stats, your main attribute is agility, and your secondary attribute is magic. So that's it! I suggest you try the magic swordsman profession! It should be just right for you!"

"Okay then! I'll choose the Magic Swordsman! So what should I do next?"

"Hey, you're really anxious, young man! It's getting late now, you should go back and rest first. When you come over tomorrow, I'll take you to see your trainer!"

"Yes, okay! Thank you, Sister Lily. I'll take care of it tomorrow!"

Lily raised the corner of her mouth, looked at the polite young man and nodded with satisfaction, then led him out of the prayer room.
