155 – The Champion on Sanctuary
“What the hell is this… .”
The landscape that the pope saw after recovering from a neck wound was a mountain of corpses.
The corpses had been scattered in the sea from earlier, but now the corpses formed a small hill with one place as the center.
“What the hell is going on with that!!”
The pope raised his voice, pointing at the hill of corpses.
I’m here to go to war Of course, death follows, and the death of the priests was natural given that the opponents were the demon king, the fallen warrior, and their party members.
He expected the deaths of the Paladins, and prepared himself from the moment Neros, the special spirit, appeared to the death of the Cardinal.
And as they were determined, the clergy scattered like autumn leaves, and the paladins fell helplessly in front of Neros’s command. The cardinals only cut off the opponent’s strength while holding on, but dying did not change.
The reason why the Pope was not seriously shaken even in the face of numerous deaths was because he was confident in the quantity.
It was a large army of over 10,000 priests alone.
It was a figure prepared in only two days, but under the order of the pope, there was no priest who could refuse the word, and as a result, a large army of 15,000 rushed to the small island.
Over 1000 people were killed in half a day, but there were still too many troops on our side.
On the other hand, no matter how great the people were, there were less than 10 of them.
Killing 5,000 people is the limit. In the middle, he was seriously injured in an attack by Prin, but he ran back within an hour as if he hadn’t just received the title of Pope.
However, the problem was that the number of people who died in that hour was far greater than the number of people from the church who died in half a day.
“I got it, but… A fallen warrior has appeared.”
“So what are you saying!!”
A fallen warrior came out?
So it would be a little annoying if the war situation went bad for a while, but that’s it.
Even if he is a warrior, he is only one. Besides, if he had fallen, since he had possessed the demonic spirit, what could he do in this place full of priests?
“A mere warrior! Are you seriously telling me that that many died for one young chick named Ryan Primal?!”
“Yeah, but other than that nothing has changed.”
There are only warriors who have fallen from the sky.
Thousands of priests returned to the bosom of God, hundreds of paladins scattered their blood into the sea, and dozens of cardinals whose bodies lay on the floor.
Originally, each and every one of them should have faced death under the blessings of thousands of people on the mountain owned by the cult, to the brave. It also dies at the hands of the fallen hero.
“It can’t be! This shouldn’t happen!!!”
After massively subjugating the demon king and the fallen warriors, he announced that he would bring a true hero.
But look at it now.
“aaa!!”
The Pope, unable to hold back his anger, throws the wine glass next to him to the floor.
Clink!!
A sharp glass shattered and red wine seeped into the bow.
The wine, which was usually stored under the church’s head to save it, tumbled on the floor, but the pope’s gaze was directed at the warrior in the distance.
“Damn it!!”
When the holy power burst out of the pope’s body, the clergy there realized what the pope was trying to do and raised their holy power to help him.
“From now on, I will declare sanctuary here.”
At one word from the pope, all the people waiting on the ship erupted with divine power.
The divine powers spewed out for miracles that would not have come true originally appeared in the sky as a huge magic circle.
The pope’s face did not distort even though he was performing an inhumane act of extracting divine power from a dead body.
Filled with rage, it simply unleashes divine power endlessly.
“It is a punishment from God.”
White wings fall to the island.
And the blood where the wing fell off disappeared in an instant, and the dark clouds disappeared, revealing a deep blue sky.
“… ah.”
The priest behind the pope sighed.
As the clump of divine power gathered in one place turns into wings and scatters across the island, the island and the island’s sea, which were covered with blood and corpses, are instantly purified.
“Ahh… !!”
The priests knelt in joy and began to pray.
All the priests were delighted with the sacred sight they had never seen before, and with their eyes closed, they continued to shout the name of the goddess Neiros and praise her.
The corpses disappear into the light, and the bloody sea turns back into a beautiful emerald light.
An island that has become so tidy that you can’t believe it’s an island where a war has been going on until just now… There were only three people screaming there.
“Keah!!”
“Haha!! Whoa!!!”
“Kweeek!!!”
Neros, the lord, Clema, the bloodline of the succubus, and Ciel, the former demon lord.
As soon as the wings made of divine power fall from the sky, only those three suffer. Unfortunately or fortunately, all three of them weren’t ordinary spirits or demons, so they didn’t die right away, but that’s why they were suffering more.
If you’re weak… No, even if it was an ordinary spirit, he would have died without being able to use his power properly in front of the divine power.
“done! With this, even the fallen hero won’t be able to use his full power!!”
The figure of the warrior, who was clearly visible after the corpse had disappeared, was slightly different.
It wasn’t like Ciel or Clema suffered.
It doesn’t even look like it’s barely holding back from passing out on the floor like Neros.

Just different from before.
He was just staring at the smiling pope with golden hair and golden eyes.
“M-What is it?”
Wasn’t it completely corrupted with black hair and black eyes?
No, it must have been a curse written there in the first place, right?
Even after proclaiming his sanctuary, the pope could not properly look at what was happening right in front of his eyes.
“ah… .”
And when he came to his senses
A warrior holding a shiny golden holy sword was destroying a ship.
*****
“I made a sanctuary proclamation.”
Mountains of corpses that had disappeared neatly before I knew it and the blood that had polluted the whole body were neatly purified.
[The sanctuary has been declared.]
[The use of curses is prohibited.]
[The use of magic is prohibited.]
[Status: Ageing has been canceled.]
[Status: Minification is canceled.]
[The sacred power of the Church of Neiros and the holy power of the warriors are strengthened.]
“… The potion price is gone.”
I sighed and headed to the place where Neros and Ciel, who were still suffering, were declared.
As the magic of destruction was quickly applied to Neros, Ciel, and Clema, the three people’s breaths began to stabilize rapidly.
No matter how much I say it’s a sanctuary declaration, it’s not a real god declaring it as a sanctuary, but it’s a magic magic created by randomly hitting the holy power, so my destructive magic is enough.
Why do you know this?
“… I never thought I would go through this twice.”
I used it once when fighting Ciel in my second life.
“By the way, warrior… Are you okay?”
As she moved toward me, she asked how I was doing, but I think I should ask her how she is before asking me now.
“Did you write an over hit?”
flinch!
The wriggling Prinne looked away from me, but I’m not stupid enough to not know that.
I also created a technique called Overheat, and I know about the aftereffects of the technique I created.
“If you see your hands and feet trembling, your legs shaking, and your skin red hot, who wouldn’t know?”
“Warrior… .”
Looking at Prin, who bowed at my words, I spat out a word while pointing my finger at the pope, who was opening his mouth like a goldfish.
“Clean up and come.”
At my words, Prine did not hesitate and ran towards the vessel where the Pope was.
Watching Prin, who quietly ran away, I put Nemesis into the scabbard and raised my familiar sacred sword.
“Are you listening?”
＜… yes.＞
A woman’s voice was heard in a low tone.
I didn’t even have time to laugh at the voice of the Holy Sword I had heard for the first time in 100 years, and I poured my holy power into the Holy Sword.
“To be honest, I really hate using you, but… ”
＜Due to the declaration of the sanctuary, the attack power and recovery power of the Neiros Church’s divine power and the warrior’s divine power increase by 200%.＞
I have to write him this time.
“Listen. If you do something strange again, I’ll throw you right into the deep sea over there.”
＜Yes!!＞
Hearing the voice of the Holy Sword, which seemed to be slightly uplifted, I quickly put my holy power into the Holy Sword.
Whoa… !!
And soon, the true power of my Holy Sword was revealed.
＜Holy Sword: The restraint of the Holy Sword of Benevolence is released.＞
＜Divine magic: Destruction rays are manifested.＞
My Holy Sword, which consumed the orange divine power, emitted golden light and erased a large ship.
[‘I didn’t want to live as a virgin’ asked why the holy magic name was Destruction Ray.]
… why are you questioning me
