The investigation of the underground temple is currently almost monopolized by the Minerva Empire.
Lina told me that other countries are also busy with their own problems, and secrets, that is, that the summoning ceremony was successful, could be leaked.
For now, it was the truth that had to be hidden as much as possible, so it was receiving only slight support from the Minerva Empire and the Savior.
Only a few know the secret, and right now, only the Imperial Family and I know only on the Minerva Empire side.
This is also true of savior. Unlike the Minerva Empire, the Savior dispatched only a small number of people, so few people knew about it.
Even if it was someone I knew, I wouldn’t say anything reckless because they know the seriousness of the situation.
Above all, Lina said that she would bring each leadership group together to have a meeting on this matter, so an official announcement will be made soon.
“Luminus-sama told you to go?”
“yes.”
So, it was a little strange for me that Kate was going. Luminus told me to go, so I can’t help it, but I wonder if something’s going to happen.
“What did Luminous say?”
“You said to take the distinguished guests there.”
“A VIP? Did you really say you were a VIP?”
“yes.”
I rolled my eyes. It is said that Luminus is very important to be called a VIP.
What the hell is going on at the temple so that Kate has to go pick it up herself? a little curious
You can also retrieve the remains of the grandfather, Clark, who is sleeping in the Temple of Death and Death, so it’s not a bad idea to go with him.
“If I go with you…”
“no.”
So when I asked carefully, only a knife-like answer came back. By the way, that answer came not from Kate, but from Adelaide next door.
Adelia listened to my answer and looked at me with a childish gaze. There is a will to never do it.
The distance from the Hagiya dormitory to the underground temple is long, and only a small number of investigation teams have been dispatched, so there are hardly any high-level personnel.
In other words, it means that you have to use a wagon, and the probability of being attacked by using the wagon up to that point increases significantly.
I nodded reluctantly as I had a gut feeling that no matter what I said, persuasion would not work.
“Okay, then, Kate. May I ask you one thing?”
“What are you asking for?”
“If the temple…”
I explained slowly based on the situation I had seen in the dream. First up, Clark.
Is Clark’s ashes really in the underground temple as I dreamed, and if so, can they be retrieved?
This was the situation that I had told my father in advance, but he was surprised, but the reaction was that he did not believe it.
Because you said you’ve never heard of anything like that.
The reason he trained his father so harshly was because he didn’t want to go anywhere and die.
Even I’m not really sure right now, so I’m asking Kate.
“…Isak’s grandfather sleeping in the temple?”
As soon as Kate heard my story, her eyes widened in surprise. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen her surprised like that.
But, as I said before, I’m not sure. After all, it could have been a dog dream that came out of my imagination.
Even if it’s a dog dream, it doesn’t matter because the number of delicious ingredients has increased, but it’s just for confirmation.
Why Clark didn’t tell his father the truth, or how he found out about the existence of the underground temple, is unknown at this time, but he will soon find out.
He even left a message saying that he would come here directly when he performed the spell. We have no idea in what form it will come, but we have Ariel.
She can see the soul, so she’ll signal first if Clark comes here.
“I’m not sure. I saw it in a dream too. So, please check it once in a while.”
“Um. I see. Maybe it’s a revelation from the gods.”
“Stay here…”
A rough guess is that it is highly probable that it was the situation when I had just crossed over to this world.
The summoning itself was successful, but an unexpected soul came over, and he must have watched the situation in that state.
I don’t know if I should call this a revelation, but it doesn’t really matter since I know Clark’s whereabouts.
“Maybe it is. Is it possible anyway? Instead, don’t bring the ashes, check it a few times and let me know. There may be some conflicts.”
“Of course. But your grandfather also killed a demon worshiper. Maybe Lord Hawke…”
Kate muttered behind her in a soft voice. You’re probably asking if my father has had any experience of subjugating demon worshipers on a massive scale.
They seem to think that the subjugation of demon worshipers is the mission of our family that has been passed down from our ancestors.
To be honest, I can’t help but think that way. Even if it was me right now, I made a huge contribution to slaying the demon worshipers.
At this, I shook my head from side to side, denying her thoughts head-on.
“No. My father said he hadn’t heard anything. Really, if my grandfather had closed his eyes there, the mission would have ceased from when he was a grandparent.”
“You seem to have a pretty complicated story.”
“I want to investigate myself, but things are not going well. First, we need to make sure that Grandpa is really there.”
According to the dream, Clark gave up on his heroic mission. No one knows if it’s because of the intense pressure or helplessness.
Also, for whatever reason, my father has never been directly harmed by a demon worshiper.
Even with red hair, he would stand out wherever he went. This is not just a story about my father, but my whole family.
He fought fiercely with the barbarians in the border area and suffered physically and mentally, but as a result, he gained a brilliant honor.
There was no ‘mission’ inherited from the previous generation in it, and it was in contrast to Clark, who closed her eyes lonely.
“Okay. What would you do if it was confirmed? I wonder if you’ll let everyone know what he’s been up to.”
“I’m going to write a similar story in a book first. I don’t know if my grandfather really did it, but there are many heroes who have passed on to the world.”
It also imposes a probability on Zeno’s heroic deeds. It can be expressed as a will that continues even after death.
However, it is a motif to the last, and it is planned to adapt it to some extent without fully capturing his story.
“It’s a hero who passed by… Surely it will be as Isaac-sama wants it to be.”
At my words, Kate smiled brightly and quietly closed her eyes and drew her name. You can feel reverence just by drawing your surname.
I smiled bitterly, knowing what she was thinking.

No one knows, but Kate will give you all kinds of meanings no matter what I say, so whatever you say is useless.
“Will the communication bead reach you there by any chance?”
“No. The entrance to the underground temple is deep in the mountains, so most communications will not reach you.”
“Can’t you even teleport?”
“It’s not an official visit, so permission won’t be issued. You should probably use Jeonseo-gu.”
“carrier pigeon?”
I put on a puzzled expression when I said that I used Jeonseo-gu. As you know, Jeon Seo-gu is a means of communication created using pigeons’ homing instinct.
However, it takes a lot of time and money, and even catching birds is hard work. If there is a place where it is used, it is about the military.
Even today, even the military uses teleports for important things. Speed, security, and finally, even the effective distance, teleport is overwhelming, so of course it has to disappear.
So for now, I don’t use it very often unless it’s a special case. So I was puzzled.
“Yes. Just in case, there is a Jeon Seo-gu trained by the denomination. It was trained to prepare for the worst situation, but the underground temple is not even able to teleport.”
“Okay. Who gets the letter?”
“Originally, I’m the one who receives it, but as of today, since I’m not there, the denomination will deliver it. I’d like to send it to Isaac’s dormitory, but demon worshipers can use it.”
it’s tight I nodded as I listened to Kate’s explanation.
I didn’t even think of Jeonseo-gu, but even if it’s not now, it might be useful in the future.
“Can I check it out? It’s my first time in Jeonseo-gu.”
“Okay. Please wait a minute.”
Kate said so and left for a while. Jeon Seo-gu is in her room, so it won’t take long.
And not long after, she came back. With a dove shining brightly of pure white fur on her hand.
Unlike her pure white body, her golden eyes are shining like a legend.
“Wow. It’s really pretty. Is this really a pigeon?”
“Yes. It is a pigeon that grew up eating plenty of the denomination’s sacred power.”
“Gugugugu.”
Food gain-
As soon as Kate finished speaking, the dove flapped its wings vigorously. I shuddered greatly at Jeonseo-gu’s sudden, sudden action.
However, the pigeon only landed on my shoulder when spraying, and no further action was taken.

No. It pecked my cheek with its beak a few times, as if it was aegyo, and then started rubbing my face.
“Gugugugu!”
“uh······”
“Gugugu! Gugu!”
Could this be because of the pure blessings I received from Hirt? There is a high possibility that this is the case, and it is certain to see them act so aegyo even when they first see them.
Pure blessing is really close to power and is loved by animals and plants. However, except for those classified as monsters.
I looked at Jeon Seo-gu rubbing my face and gently stroked my hair with my fingers. Then the dove came closer to me and cried cutely.
“coo!”
“It’s cute. Do you have a name for him?”
“·······”
I asked while stroking my hair, but Kate didn’t answer. He just stared at Jeonseo-gu with some strange eyes.
The expression on his face was also unusual, as his mouth was closed in a single character and he had no emotion whatsoever.
It’s rare for Kate to make that kind of expression, so when something creeps in her, she mumbles in a low voice.
“I’m envious.”
“Me… Kate?”
“I’ll be like that asap…”
You’re jealous of animals because of how many desires you have.
******
similar time. An underground temple where there was an uproar.
[····································· I didn’t even hurt you. Even if I look like this, my reason is intact. Because I am not the father of all things, but the existence that Hirt-sama allowed. Okay?]
“Woo!”
[Well, I can understand you. But what do you do? My son wants to bury my body. This is the only way.]
Currently, the temple is in a state of lull. The manpower dispatched to the investigation team was elitist and actually strong.
Clark was just stronger. A great man who not only slaughtered all the top demon worshipers during his lifetime, but also interfered with the summoning ceremony.
In terms of power, it is equivalent to or greater than that of an elf warrior, so it is natural for the investigation team to be helplessly suppressed.
[hey. Is it hard?]
Clark tapped the knight below and asked. The knight he is using as a substitute for a chair (?) was now humiliatingly lying on his stomach.
The knight trembled at him, but didn’t even respond. Only the sound of grinding teeth in the middle can be heard.
Clark snorted at the will of the knight, who didn’t know whether to say he was courageous or stubborn.
[The article is the same even after the passage of time. You’re just being stubborn.]
“That confidence won’t last long…!”
[Yes. Yes. Believe it or not, I don’t care because you’re free.]
In the vicinity, the investigation team that Clark had suppressed was in a state of fainting. Anyone who sees it can believe that it is the scene of a massacre.
However, there was not a single person who passed out one by one through the overwhelming difference in power and died.
Even the knight who is currently using it as a chair was a person who endured to the end, so it caught Clarke’s eyes.
It could be said that it was bad luck in many ways, but the knight decided that this was better and endured until the end.
As long as you hold on, the comrades who ran away will come to call reinforcements. Until then, he is biting his teeth with the mindset of holding out.
“Uhhh…”
[Sorry. Now that there are only bones, it should be light.]
read at https://noblemtl.com
Not harsh It’s so heavy it looks like it’s going to fall over. That’s the article’s lie.
It really had only bones, but even those bones boasted a tremendous weight. In addition to being bones, he is also wearing the armor he wore while he was still alive.
Clark, completely unaware of that fact, thought that the knight was just a weak guy and was enjoying his leisure time.
I really want to get out of there, but the situation is like this, so I can’t move around recklessly.
It’s perfectly fine to go out and be mistaken for a monster, and in extreme cases, the Empire might lead an army.
So, for now, we have no choice but to wait until someone we can talk to.
Behind-the-back-
Clark rummaged through the pockets of his pants. But there is nothing in the pockets of the worn-out pants.
At this, he licked his tongue and looked at the article lying underneath.
[hey. Are you… no, no.]
Clark then shook his head. Then he looked around.
[Hey. there you.]
“·······”
[Answer me because I am not awake.]
“Yes, yes!”
A man raises his head among the crowd when Clark asks in a threatening voice.
Before the incident, he was one of the archaeologists who analyzed and studied Clark’s body.
Originally, he was going to pretend to pass out until the incident was over, but somehow Clark realized that he had regained consciousness.
Clarke looked at the archaeologist and asked in a serious voice.
[Do you have any cigarettes?]
“Dam… a ship?”
[okay. tobacco.]
Clark suddenly asks for a cigarette. While the archaeologist was bewildered when he heard this, he said in a voice of deep regret.
[It was a pity that I did not have cigarettes before I died.]
“·······”
[ah. Would you like to ask your grandchildren to put them in a book? By sucking one cool cigarette right before you die. big How cool!]
It’s a skeleton that’s really out of sync with something. The archaeologist had no choice but to think so.
