65. Magic swordsman or not!
“Hey, hey…”
The fight is finally over. Like the elite guarding the Great War, they fought fiercely without retreating and succeeded in defeating all the monsters.
Of course, the reason none of them died was because Cream helped out a little bit. To help others with their work, be kind.
“Are you really a warrior? Why are you here…”
After taking care of his subordinates, the commander who approached Cream frowned in disapproval. Contrary to his high status, the face revealed through the helmet was unexpectedly young.
The respect and respect shown to ordinary warriors was nowhere to be found, and a slight displeasure appeared on the faces of not only the commander but also the troops under his command. It wasn’t simply because of the blood from fighting the monsters.
[Are you funny? Are you talking as if you came to a place where no hero could come?]
“Shut up! Where does the filthy seed of evil speak?”
Oh, why are you rushing? Even I was surprised to see how the commander turned his face red with anger. He showed pure hostility and intent to kill without filtering.
Cream can’t just watch that scene. Even though she is like that, she and her substitute had a bad relationship from the beginning, and it was like pouring fire on it. She put her hand on it without hesitation.
“Cheer!”
“Sir Winsle!”
With one hand, Cream grabbed the dog by the collar and lifted it up as it barked at her. As the strangled commanding officer, Winsle, struggled, the atmosphere quickly turned violent.
The servants of the Great Temple, who were more faithful to their faith than anyone else, thrust their weapons at the warriors who were protected by the three gods without hesitation. Strange, definitely strange.
[Stop!]
However, the authority of the holy sword still worked, and the soldiers stopped at her words. In the meantime, Winsle, who twisted violently, freed herself from Cream’s collar and retreated.
Even though she is a pretty girl on the outside, Cream’s strength rivals that of an ogre. Breaking free from her clutches meant that her opponents were also formidable warriors.
“Cool! Hey, what the hell is this!”
[That’s what we want to say! The lamb within the fence of faith dares to reveal its teeth to its shepherd!]
However, before they could argue, the holy sword gave off a tantrum with the trick of the enemy. Winsle flinched at the scolding, stern voice, but then she raised her head again.
His eyes glistened with inexplicable fanaticism. Ugh, that’s why I didn’t want to come to Daeshinjeon. Anyway, the fanatics are troublesome to deal with.
“Under my lord, there is only one Shepherd leading us.”
Even more so if it is a pseudo-pseudo-style interpretation of the doctrine.
I clicked my tongue as I looked at the gold rose insignia on the armor of the knights and the sun embroidery on the wide sleeves of the priests’ forms. All of these belong to the Church of the Sun.
Of course, none of the denominations are on good terms with us, but among them, the relationship with the Saint of the Sun is truly the worst. Even if it’s not, me and the saint are a historical bad relationship that has been going on for decades.
Cream also took me out of the Vigo of the Great War, and in the meantime partly destroyed the Great War. How many paladins have you killed? Even if there was no physical evidence, the heart would be overflowing.
Of course, the Church of the Sun had no choice but to hate us.
[Now, can I take that as a sign of denying the hero?]
But what are you doing because you don’t like those kind of idiots? In the first place, they were people who could not be opponents by force or power. At the bleak words of the holy sword, they immediately shrank.
“That, that’s not it…!”
[Then what did I hear? Are you born as a man and put two words in one mouth?]
The holy sword is always a warrior’s absolute ally. No matter how much she belonged to the temple, she couldn’t look good in her eyes.
As the Holy Sword cut them down and threatened them with its own authority and justification, I could feel the presence of a great power approaching from beyond.
“So much for bullying poor children.”
As her awakening as a saint is in progress, Choco, who is especially sensitive to her divine power, stiffened her ears and tail. Even Winsle’s face, which had been in trouble with the Holy Sword a while ago, was also blushing.
On the other hand, I blatantly clicked my tongue. The holy power that is dry and stuffy as if it came to the desert and heats up the surroundings. There can’t be two people with this temperament.
The saint of the sun was in front of us.
*
“My God, not a saint, but a saint?”
[Yes.]
After the Saint of the Sun joined the procession, we immediately moved to the Great Temple.
Since the holy man joined us, there have been no quarrels with the rest of the guitarists, but the mere fact that the old monster was walking by our side was already uncomfortable enough.
Besides, that old monster is also a saint, so he must be feeling the divine power sleeping in Choco’s body. It was impossible to fake the purpose of our visit to Daeshinjeon.
[So stop interfering, Pasta.]
“How could this old man interfere with God’s work? I’m just curious.”
Contrary to what he said like a kind old man, the eyes of the saint of the sun sparkled beautifully. Cream also met that gaze without losing.
Cream was also on the short side, but the saint of the sun was also old and his dignified appearance had shrunk. At the same eye level, the two gazes sparked.
“I wonder if a person who has fallen into demons can be called a hero.”
[Please refrain from talking!]
The saint’s gaze was directed directly at me. An active volcano of fury seemed to burst out of his eyes, but his voice, on the contrary, was extremely calm, which made it more frightening.
[Only the will of the three gods can bring the hero to the stern judgment. No matter how good God is, you shouldn’t be mistaken for where you stand.]
“Because it is a place to stand…. Yes, I have a good idea of where I am. Isn’t that why you are still standing right in front of the beast that took the life of my friend?”
[It must be a place to lie down, not a place to stand. This senile grandpa. Aren’t you old enough to be crowned already?]
However, even the saint, who was fairly calm in accepting the holy sword’s fierce criticism, frowned when I intervened and sarcastically sneered at him. No, why do you hate me so much?
At most what I did was to cut down and kill the saint’s colleagues and acquaintances. Well, maybe that’s what happens when you live. I still have it in my heart like that.
“This disproportionate thing…! Hero, are you still going to protect that evil thing?”
[Didn’t it be announced during the announcement ceremony? Since the demonic sword will become the seed of a huge disaster in the future, the warrior carries it and manages it himself.]
“Do you think you will be fooled by such a shameless excuse? Rumors have already spread in the streets that the demonic sword replaces the mouth of the warrior, but if this is not evidence of corruption, then what is it!”
[Wow, pervert? Why are you stalking others?]

However, despite his anger, the saint did not dare to attack us. The flames blazed around him, then subsided over and over again. It meant that his emotions fluctuated violently.
In the meantime, Cream just looked at the saint without saying anything. As the flames around the saint’s body faded, Cream slowly opened his mouth.
“My, go away,”
In the end, there was only one reason why the saint couldn’t touch us. Because the warrior is afraid.
It is a serious crime even for a saint favored by one god to attack a warrior favored by three gods, much less the result of a battle between an old saint and a younger warrior.
Even if the saint wins, all that will come after that is the destruction of the supporters and the division of the Great War. On the other hand, the damage to the warriors who are active without any basis in the first place is not great.
“Don’t touch me.”
Above all, the gods do not stand by.
The Demon King does not appear without a hero.
And if the Demon King does not appear, the darkness of the world grows thicker.
Therefore, no matter how corrupt the hero is, no matter how much he abuses his power and authority, the world cannot punish him. Until the demon king falls.
“······ Champion, last warning.”
However, if the hero were truly invincible, I wouldn’t have laughed at his stupidity when he had to fight with the Great War.
“Throw away the demonic sword. No, with your power, it would be possible to completely destroy the demonic sword. Destroy that evil existence with your own hands.”
And then, a flash of light erupted from Cream’s hand.
In exchange for the divine power that didn’t work properly for the saint, a dagger he pulled out before he knew it tore the saint’s wrinkled cheek. His blood dripping, the saint continued in a calm tone.
“Is this your answer?”
“f*ck, kka.”
And Cream made a very rude gesture. The knights in the procession hurriedly tried to separate the cream and the warrior, but the saint waved his hand to stop them.
The saint of the sun also knew how to use the divine power of the source. Healing my torn cheek, he sentenced.
“This was my last chance.”
“I never asked for it, never asked for it.”
The hero does not die until the demon king appears. He doesn’t fall Since the three gods protect the brave, that is the fate of the world that cannot be changed.
But there are many more terrible things than death. Even if it happened again later, the scars once engraved on the body and mind were never erased.
In the uncomfortable silence, the procession started moving again.
Daeshinjeon was right in front of us.
