290 – Champagne Supernova (5)
Theo gazed at the attendants of light.
Although the attendants of light were all raising their weapons, Theo’s expression was calm.
It’s not because of facial expression management. He had expected this situation to come.
‘I knew it, you bastards.’
This was the method of the practitioners of light that also appeared in this work.
They take the most efficient method to achieve clear goals. I don’t care about morals and ethics. They commit serious crimes such as murder, arson, and kidnapping without hesitation.
The fact that all practitioners of light used pseudonyms during missions was closely related to this. This is part of their effort to prevent their ugly and cruel work practices from becoming known.
Simple religious people should only know them as heroes of justice. It is a time-honored method of the leadership of the religious denomination that has been passed down from the past. This makes it easier to govern the ignorant subjects who make up the majority.
Theo spoke to the attendants of light without even unsheathing his sword.
“Wait a moment.”
He loosened his body by moving his neck, waist, and wrists around.
“You guys, relax a little. That way, it will be easier to fight.”
Theo spoke to the other party members in a calm manner, as if he had just gone for a walk.
Then the other party members also began to warm up.
The practitioners of light laughed with dumbfounded expressions.
Billy said.
“That’s right, Sarah?”
“······Hiccup. “Say so.”

Gulp.
Sarah put her mouth to the silver champagne he was holding in his hand and took a sip.
Mike muttered as he watched Theo calmly relax his body.
“Wow… I’m falling behind on romance. “I’ll have to use it next time too.”
His voice dripped with sincerity.
Adrien secretly shook his head.
‘······I feel like I’m going crazy being among them. Ugh.’
After some time, Theo, who had completely recovered, spoke to his companions.
“I will take charge of Sarah and Adrienne. “Take charge of the remaining three, one by one.”
P.L. Pointed his finger at Britney.
“He’s mine. “I have to see the final result.”
“hehehe, that’s not possible. “I’m also interested in that lemon-colored kid?”
“Why suddenly?”
“You just bitten Theo’s hand without my permission, right? “I think I need to give him a brief admonition.”
Piel shook her head.
“······Well, I admit it. “Then let’s decide to be fair and play rock, paper, scissors.”
“hehehe, good.”
Piel and Sienna started playing rock, paper, scissors.
“Ah, why do you keep following me!”
“It’s pretty good, P.L.?”
The winner did not come easily.
Both had excellent visual acuity, so they continued to draw.
When Billy saw that, he burst into laughter.
“Hey, Britney, you’re popular?”
Adrien received the message.
“You probably want to stick with the weakest one. “Because Britney is the weakest among us.”
“Oh my, who was the person who got robbed last month?”
“······After this, we’ll have a round.”
Britney responded with her natural face.
“Yes~ I don’t like it~”
“Mr. Lee…!”
The practitioners of light were noisy.
A lack of tension that cannot be seen even during combat operations.
Team leader Sarah didn’t stop them, but gulped down the remaining champagne.
Before we knew it, Piel and Sienna’s rock, paper, scissors had come to an end.
Winner Sienna said.
“hehehe, that lemon-colored child is mine. “No complaints, right~?”
“There are so many. Hey, you used a spirit, right? At some point, my fingers stopped straightening. “That’s why the rock was created.”
“You’re a naughty child to be suspicious of people just because of your suspicions~? “Do you have any proof?”
“······I’ll find you from now on.”
When Piel took a step closer to Sienna, frowning at her.
“Stop it. “It’s time to move on.”
Theo said, holding the [Demon Sword] In her hand.
“······Ugh. See you later.”
Piel withdrew his gaze from Sienna and pulled out her sword.
P.L. Asked Jang Woo-hee next to her.
“Hey, Jang Woo-hee. Who do you want to take charge of? Crooked legs? Dwarf?”
“······It doesn’t matter to anyone.”
“Then I’ll take charge of the legs. Since you are short, it would be easier for you to take on the role of a dwarf.”
Jang Woo-hee glanced at P.L.
“······You and me. “There isn’t much of a difference in height.”
In reality, P.L. And Jang Woo-hee were only about 5 cm tall.
The car where an angry P.L. Was trying to protest something.
Shuuuk──
Theo ran towards the attendants of light.
“······Mr.!”
Piel swallowed what she was about to say and ran towards the microphone.

Theo’s opponents are two people, Adrien and Sarah.
But Theo didn’t even look at Adrien. She only had her sights set on Sarah.
Theo slashed Sarah with his sword with the intention of cutting her to pieces.
Sarah crossed her dual swords and blocked Theo’s downward slash.
Jang──!
The resounding sound of metal hitting metal.
It was a slash using all of her weight and acceleration, but Sarah was able to defend herself without a problem.
The height difference between Sarah and Theo is approximately 20cm. The weight difference is more than 20 kg.
But Sarah didn’t seem to be having much trouble. She is proof that her skills and physical strength are special.
‘Hmm, I don’t think I’ve used [Liberation] Yet. As expected, they are of a different class from other practitioners of light.’
Theo decided to raise the tempo.
Boom, boom, boom—!
After using [Overlord], He slashed his sword repeatedly.
It was effective. The fact that Sara’s posture was collapsing with each strike was conveyed through the hand holding her sword.
“Hap!”
Meanwhile, Adrien aimed at Theo’s back.
Theo didn’t even look at Adrienne, and gave her a back kick. Her feet were pointed towards her face.
Adrien easily dodged Theo’s kick.
“Hmph, your martial arts skills are terrible! “It’s just this much… Ugh!”
Adrien’s one knee was bent. Theo’s foot moved at a strange angle and landed on her thigh.
But it is not enough for her to subdue her with her simple kicks, not even her blades.
“Haap!”
Adrienne immediately recovered and stabbed her sword towards Theo’s abdomen.
At the same time, Sarah also moved. Sarah swung her dual swords, aiming for Theo’s calves.
“What is this…”
But their swords did not reach Theo.
Theo jumped in place. He flew up about 1.5 Meters from the ground without any preparatory movements.
Netting─
As Theo fell from the air, he held his sword tightly with both hands. Then he hit Sarah.
A powerful strike combining gravity and body weight.
Sarah crossed her dual swords in an X shape and took her defensive stance.
“Ugh.”
Changgang─
Both of Sarah’s swords were broken. It was not enough to block Theo’s blow.
Adrien aimed at Theo’s chest, which was defenseless after the attack.
Theo leaned back and avoided it. Then he touched the surface with both his palms and kicked Adrien with both feet.
Bang!
Adrien, who defended, was pushed back more than 5 steps.
Theo calmly checked his surroundings. His group was doing well against the Acolytes of Light. No one was hurt.
‘······The practitioners of light did not use [Liberation].’
If they had used [Liberation], His comrades would have been rolling around on the floor, covered in blood.
‘But practitioners of light are those who live according to the stream of consciousness.’
You may suddenly use [Liberation] Arbitrarily.
[Liberation] Grants the user enormous power. There are many similarities to the [Demonization] Of the devil. The more [Liberation] Is used, the less human it becomes.
Theo put the [Demon Sword] Back into its scabbard.
Then he spoke to Adrienne and Sarah, who were looking at him.
“Let’s leave it at this. Unless you want to use [Liberation].”
Sarah responded.
“I can’t do this because you have too many suspicious qualities. His skills are so outstanding that he is not an academy student. He seems smart, so I don’t think he’ll give me a straight answer. “No matter how much the media says it’s a supernova, it’s strange.”
“I learned about you through my special ability.”
“Is that special ability a prophecy?”
“Yes.”
Sarah’s expression hardened.
“What nonsense. “Theo Lin Walderk, you’re the Pope?”
The pope of the church has prophetic abilities. Of course, only a very small number of people within the church know this fact.
At the same time, Sarah remembered the prophecy that the Pope had told only to her.
─Soon, the continent will suffer from numerous demonic threats.
─A warrior with the energy of silver, shining softly like a crescent moon, will save the continent.
─Find that person, Sarah.
Theo raised one corner of her mouth and smiled rottenly.
“Don’t compare yourself to the Pope or something like that. “The Pope sees a random future, but I was able to see the future I wanted.”
“Can you prove it?”
“It is impossible now that the ability has disappeared. Of course, I know that you are not a martial artist because I have seen it before.”
“······!”
Sarah glared at Theo.
What he said was true.
Sarah is not a fighter. Her main weapon is not dual swords, but a divine spell. She has enormous divine power, even greater than that of Saint Isabella.
Theo continued.
“Anyway… Proof? If you think about it a little, you’ll understand. “Do you wear your hair as an ornament?”
Sarah frowned for a moment at Theo’s provocation, but opened her mouth in an obedient manner.
“Make me understand.”
“How did I, a student at an academy, know that there was a Great Demon Shrine in the northern magic city?”
“······.”
“If I were the devil, how would I have hunted down the person in charge of the northern magic city that even you crazy people don’t know about?”

Sarah was lost in thought for a moment.
She said, pointing her finger at Theo.
“Are you a devil who will destroy the continent, or an angel who will save it? ······I just don’t know. “It’s not up to me to judge.”
Then she raised her right arm up.
“All personnel ready for [Liberation]. Secure Theo Lin Walderk at all costs. “If I die, I will hand that guy over to the Pope.”
“······Do you want to see blood in the end?”
Theo drew the [Demon Sword] Again and spoke to the group.
“Everyone, stay away. “You could get swept away.”
Theo immediately raised his energy from the depths of the Danjeon. He then placed a raised flag around his sword.
Wow~
The silver flag covering the body of the sword flickered. The shape was like a cool, gentle crescent moon.
“!”
Sarah’s eyes widened as if they were about to explode.
‘That guy wasn’t just a supernova. ‘Ugh… I’m a silver warrior!’
Tuk.
The broken blade that was pointed at her heart fell to the floor.
Other practitioners of light lowered their weapons and expressed doubt as they tried to stab her heart.
“What is it, Sarah? “Wasn’t that what you were doing?”
“That’s right. Why did you drop your sword and make such a fuss? “Oh, Sarah, your expression is so funny right now.”
Either way, no words reached Sarah’s ears right now. Only the sword covered in silver that Theo was holding was visible.
Sarah shouted.
“Ugh, Eungi… Eungi!”
Silver Hero, sounds cool cuz his body radiated silver
