168 – Behemoth – 5
In-young’s true identity was Selene.
Selene, who was walking down the hallway with the same dazed expression as Stella, trembled as soon as our eyes met and asked a question in a slightly wet voice.
“… … Honored guest, was it a miracle you performed?”
“What?”
“The question was whether the pillar of light that appeared in the sky was a miracle caused by an honored guest.”
‘Also.’
I thought I saw Selene too.
And if you’ve seen Selene, you’ve definitely seen the rest of the combat nuns in this city. It was a fact that I had already expected, but it felt strange to receive a definite answer.
“That’s right.”
When I answered yes, his eyes widened. Selene froze for a long time in that state, then stammered to open her mouth.
“Sorry, sorry… … sorry. dear guest I was so surprised… … .”
“it’s okay. Because I fully understand. The Heretic Judge also had that kind of reaction.”
“Even the heresy judge… … .”
Selene muttered blankly.
“By the way, how did you get here? Did the Heretic Questioner come because of the Behemoth?”
To be honest, I didn’t expect to meet Selene here. It’s true because I saw Stella in the game, but Selene wasn’t. This also seemed to be the aftermath of catching a creature abandoned by God.
“… … Yes. I, too, following the orders of the Holy Father, have come to capture that blasphemous demon.”
Even in the middle of a dazed expression, Selene answered meekly. She was much calmer than Stella, who was so startled that she couldn’t even answer my questions properly.
“Then it’s just fine. His body should be in the top room of this mansion. I left it to the Heretic Inquisitor to take care of the cleanup, but if the Heretic Inquisitor was also with us, it would be over much faster. I still have work to do, so I’ll go first.”
After that, just before I passed by, Selene, who had been pursed lips, glanced back at me.
“… … You are an honored guest.”
“Yes?”
I stopped. It was the sight that had something to say.
“… … I know it’s rude, but for a moment… … Is it okay if I cause trouble?”
His eyes were slightly wet. I hesitated for a moment, wondering if she was going to burst into tears, but upon closer inspection, it seemed that she wasn’t intending to.
When I didn’t answer, Selene, perhaps taking it as an expression of acceptance, began approaching me with both hands folded in front of her chest with a flushed face.
He said it was rude, but he didn’t seem to have any intention of stopping it.
I inadvertently lowered my gaze because the eyes that were gradually wetting toward me were quite burdensome. Through the translucent tights, a pink bump stood up stiffly from the tip of her chest.
He hurriedly raised his gaze up again. Rather than staring at nipples, it is better to make eye contact.
From Selene’s cherry-colored lips, an excited moan of ha-ha flowed. Her breath mixed with the scent of a woman touched my lips. It was wet and warm.
Selene came right in front of me, put her hand on her left chest, and closed her eyes.
“What are you going to do?”
“… … I’m sorry, honored guest.”
In response to my question, Selene just stood still, giving me an apology. I couldn’t quite figure out what the hell I was going to do.
Selene, who had been closing her eyes with her hand raised near my heart for a while, opened her eyes slowly only after a considerable amount of time had passed. The wet eyes were back to normal.
“It is done. I’m really, really sorry. You are an honored guest.”
“There is nothing to be sorry about. I would appreciate it if you could tell me why you did that.”
“… … Sorry. I want to find out how faithful the honored guests are to have made the pillar of light… … I did it even though I knew that it was extremely disrespectful to measure someone’s faith. If you want to be punished, I will accept it sweetly.”
Selene bowed her head and apologized again. It was an attitude that I was really really sorry and didn’t know what to do.
But I, the person in charge, didn’t care. I don’t know what Selene thinks, but first of all, I don’t believe in God. Faithfulness to me was just a stat that goes up when you score points.
‘It wouldn’t be much if I measured it anyway.’
And even if I were to measure my sincerity, it would probably fall short of even the average of the Holy Land. My faith stat was only 4, and my divine power stat was only 10.
‘Ah, then I’d think it would be even more amazing to hear that such a miracle was performed with only a handful of faith.’
Either way, it was a go-to.
“I understand for now. Instead, may I ask the Heretic Questioner just one question?”
I decided not to ask how the measurements came out.
Either way, the outcome would be interpreted in my favor, and since Selene was feeling so guilty, I also wanted to change the subject as quickly as possible.
“… … Yes, honored guest. What are you curious about?”
“Have you seen where the knight named Helga is? He’s a lot shorter than me, with bobbed hair that goes down to his shoulders—”
“Ah, if you mean the knights under the VIP, I see. It’s not what I found, but it’s a collection of people who wore the knights’ uniforms in one place in the process of identifying heretics by the Battle Sisters. Among those knights, there was also a female knight who said she was the second-in-command of the Knights of the Jet Dark Night.”
I was relieved at the thought that I had already found Helga, but when I heard that I had identified heresy, I asked with a slightly nervous expression.
“By the way, is it possible that he identified heresy… … ?”
Selene shook her head, as if she had read my concerns with her expression.
“Among the knights who introduced themselves as members of the Knights of the Jet Dark Night, not a single soul was identified as a heretic. And even if the area is expanded to cover the entire city, it is safe to say that no one has lost their souls, perhaps because the VIPs quickly killed the demons.”
“… … That’s good.”
I sighed inwardly. If even one of the Knights of the Dark Night had been swept away by demons and ‘saved’ by the Battle Sisters, it would have been a bit bitter.
I decided not to worry about the method of determining heresy. It’s the same woman, so it could be. Wouldn’t it be less ashamed of what I’ve been through?
“Do you know where the knights are gathered?”
“of course. I will guide you, so I would appreciate it if you would follow me, honored guest.”
Selene turned and started walking down the hallway. Because of the way she was dressed, her buttocks, which were wrapped in translucent tights, were visible. Her long ponytail swayed back and forth at her hips.
It was extremely erotic with the way women walk and the way they dress, emphasizing their buttocks. I followed her, fixing my gaze on the back of Selene’s head as much as possible.
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Selene, but that outfit was the same.
It’s already been three days since Stella and Selene came to this city.
The Heretic Inquisitor, the Heretic Questioner, and the combat nuns under them, as well as the Dark Night Knights, were still staying in Cassandra’s city.
Originally, I was going to go right back. Stella and Selene would take care of the rest, and above all, because Nyx was still waiting for me in the forest.
However, he changed his mind after hearing an earnest request that he would please help, as the combat nuns he brought would not be enough to maintain the city’s security.
‘Even though the insides are slightly different.’
It was obvious why Seongguk wanted to leave me here. It seems that he was very surprised to see the pillar of light I created, so he probably wants to have me next to him as much as possible.
I also needed the help of the Popes to find out what had happened, so I was going to return to Aurora’s territory anyway and leave for the Holy Land.
However, if Stella and Selene were there, they could send Nyx back with the Knights of the Dark Night and head straight to the Holy Land, so the interests of both sides were aligned.
‘It looks like you’re seriously mistaken about something… … .’
However, there was a side effect that wasn’t the side effect that the people on the Seongguk side started to worship me strangely.
In particular, the combat nuns looked at me much more than Stella and Selene.
Previously, it was just ‘He is a precious guest of His Holiness, so you must serve him well’, but now it has changed to ‘He is a person who has done something close to a miracle, so you must serve him desperately, even if it means costing your soul and life’.
Because of such an absurd mindset, I was rather dying even though I was the one receiving the treatment.
They said they would do it for me and made a fuss so much that I couldn’t even drink a glass of water properly, so I said everything.
In the meantime, it was even more absurd to say that the general members treated me normally well.
‘… … how about helga We never met again after that. I’m sure he’s not in a similar position to me.’
To begin with, Helga clearly remembered what she had done.
From the time she was enchanted and seduced me by massaging her breasts, to the time she buried her face in my shoulder and sniffed me, to the time she begged me to mix with her, everything.
Maybe the shyness was too great, I haven’t seen her face once since I barely heard a few words from her when we first met. Even the report was posted by a regular member instead.
I fully understood why. Even if it was me, I would have been on the verge of dying because I was ashamed.
If I gave an order, I could bring it to me, but I decided not to. There is nothing to lose by waiting until the shame goes away.
Instead, I told all the general members.
It’s because I don’t like a stiff atmosphere, so I’m loosening up, because there is a hierarchy in the Knights of the Dark Night. It’s unacceptable to do something like that without a good reason.
As expected, the general members smirked when they heard why Helga suddenly acted like that, saying that they would understand if that was the case.
I told them not to tell the others, but I don’t know if they will keep it a secret from the rest of their colleagues. From now on, Helga will have to handle it alone.
Who wants to avoid my face out of shame?
‘Anyway, I just need to recover until someone arrives from the imperial palace. I don’t know who will come this time. It is unlikely that Caicilia will come again in person.’
While sending a letter to Aurora saying that she would have to stay here a little longer because of the incident, she also sent a letter to the imperial palace.
It is said that he subdued a demon named Behemoth. I didn’t even think about it at all, but somehow it turned out that I was keeping my promise to make Kaicilia’s wish come true.
“Kee hee hee… … I’m ready.”
Nyx, a short-haired horse who was cutting trees with magic, came next to me with a proud expression. In the place where Nyx had been sitting just before, there was a crudely carved human figure.
“okay. In case you don’t know, would you like to stay a little farther away?”
“Hi-Hi. yes.”
Nyx’s chest jumped, and the dodo backed away. Then he hid behind a tree and looked this way with only his face and chest sticking out.
It doesn’t seem like she intentionally pushed her breasts out, but because they were so large, they came out on their own.
The wingless nightmare emitted a brilliant light. He raised his sword, shining brilliantly in gold and silver, high into the sky.
From now on, I was going to test the special ability of the divine attribute of the nightmare that had lost its wings. It was necessary to find out whether it was a temporary phenomenon or a continuously applied phenomenon.
This was already the second time. The first was in the god-forsaken creature boss fight, and the second was in the Behemoth boss fight.
The contents were almost identical. When I attack using divine power, the damage of the attack is amplified to an enormous level.
‘It’s worth a try.’
If this is not a temporary effect but a permanent effect, you can just switch to the cleric build.
It’s limited to once per play, but I know of a place that resets the stats so you can shoot again, so there was no problem even if you changed the build now.
I took a deep breath, struck the wingless nightmare, and activated its special ability.
