‘Shut up!’
Ethan’s eyes widened as if they were about to pop out.
Stella returned to a state of tears again and brushed up on Ethan.
“Ethan, shall we talk again? How the hell did you become so reckless? I never raised you like that.”
“… … .”
“Why is there no answer? Are you ignoring me now?”
“… … .”
Ethan tried to get around something.
But there was a reason it couldn’t.
‘shoulder! shoulder!’
It was because the vital point of the shoulder was being pressed.
‘Damn it! Are you really going to kill people?’
Due to Stella’s superpower and the pain of the vital point, Ethan passed out as it was.
* * *
“Ugh… … .”
Ethan woke up in pain.
‘Where are you?’
Looking around, he found himself in a temporary barracks near the treatment center.
Ethan, who remembered the last memory before he lost consciousness, sharpened his teeth.
‘Damn it. Counting power uselessly.’
However, when I think of Stella’s fist, complaints enter the room.
‘It’s never too late to take revenge next time.’
Ethan rationalized himself like that.
And looked around the barracks for signs.
‘It seems that the Dark Followers and monsters have disappeared.’
The moans of the patients did not stop around Ethan.
“Priest, please save me.”
“I need to replenish the potion quickly.”
“wait please. I’ll treat you right away.”
Priests and healers were also busy walking around.
Now that Ethan is awake, anyone can talk to him, but everyone seems to have lost his mind.
In the gap between the barracks, the administrative building where the round table was to be held was visible.
‘Seeing the knights and wizards in and out, it seems that they have entered into an investigation.’
That was then.
“Ouch!”
One of the knights receiving treatment in the seat next to Ethan woke up screaming.
The knight, who had been watching for a while, came to his senses and asked the priest.
“Hey, how have you been?”
“All the kings of the United Kingdom have been rescued safely. Don’t worry.”
It was good news to hear.
Ethan was able to breathe.
In any case, the attack of the Dark Follower was prevented with minimal damage.
‘yes?’
At that moment, Ethan’s eyes saw a person who had been strongly tainted with toxic magic.
Ethan got up from his seat and headed for it.
Investigating magical power was as simple as breathing to him.
Ethan slowly raised his hand.
“Ethan!”
I heard someone’s voice behind my back.
It was Stella.
‘Eight, damn it.’
Ethan swallowed the curse and turned back.
“That’s fortunate. You woke up!”
Stella hugged Ethan tightly.
Ethan shuddered as he remembered the time when he passed out by the shoulder.
“You’re lying down because you’re hurt. Why are you awake?”
Ethan was taken aback by those words.
‘Hey man! You stunned me!’
It was true that the battle with the predator of fear was a bit overkill.
But he wasn’t injured enough to lose consciousness.
Ethan’s downfall was purely because of Stella.
“Oh, maybe?”
Stella looked at the patient who was contaminated with magic and Ethan alternately.
“Oh my gosh! You’re only trying to heal the patient, even though you’ve only just come to your senses. Ethan, I’m sorry I called you rude earlier. You still remember Pars-sama’s teachings.”
Ethan burst out laughing in shock.
Stella laughed at what he thought of Ethan’s smile.
Ethan wanted to smack Stella in the back of the head right away.
But it didn’t.
No, I couldn’t.
It was absolutely not because he was afraid of Stella’s anger and superhuman strength.
never.

“Oh, look at my mind. I talked too much about sick people. Have a good rest. I’ll just go.”
Stella left after a long riot after that.
Excited, Ethan crawled into the outdoor bed.
‘It wasn’t like this even when the fierce battle was fought during the Anti-Magic War.’
Even thinking about it again, he didn’t seem to have a good compatibility with the people of the Pars Church.
Ethan sat down and closed his eyes.
That was then.
“Priest Ethan!”
“Priest!”
My eyes widened at the familiar voice.
were twins
‘It bothered me. Let’s just pretend we’re sleeping.’
Ethan didn’t respond.
If I had been awake, I would have run away somewhere else.
But fortunately, he was now a patient.
It is an identity that people understand because people are sick even when they are lying down and sleeping.
But it was Ethan’s mistake.
The twins were more tenacious than expected.
“uh? Are you sleeping?”
“no way. Looking through the barracks earlier, you were talking to Stella-sama at the time?”
“Hmm, you sleep so deep in the meantime?”
“It’s absurd.”
king! king!
It seemed that he was brought to Fenrir.
It was more of a kick.
“Hmm, then, shall we use the newly developed magic?”
“great! It’s my first time dealing with people, but if it’s Priest Ethan, it’ll be fine.”
king king king!
As the twins’ conversation progressed, Ethan’s eyebrows twitched.
If it went on like this, something ominous was about to happen.
Ethan finally opened his eyes.
“What kind of experimenter do you consider me to be?”
“Wow! Success in waking the priest!”
“I was still awake.”
turn it off
Fenrir wiped his mouth as if it were a pity.
‘That damn bastard.’
Ethan looked at Fenrir.
Chloe and Charlotte furrowed their eyebrows in disappointment.
“Why do you pretend to sleep when we come? I am so sad.”
“Actually, Priest, I knew you would be tired, so I was just trying to talk in moderation, didn’t I? But pretending to sleep makes me want to play more.”
“It’s all the priest’s fault.”
Jeokban was also oily, and now I blamed Ethan.
Ethan sighed and waved his hand.
“Okay. Please tell me something.”
“You know, Priest Ethan saved you, Count Cozy. Thank you.”
“Actually, he’s my father’s best friend. If he had been sacrificed there, we would not have been able to see him.”
“It’s not enough to be greeted. Is that the only purpose?”
I mean, did you just wake up pretending to be asleep over something like that?
But the twins just smiled without noticing.
“There is another dragon.”
“I have a question about Stella-sama.”
“Are Count Cozy like a father to us, and Stella-sama a mother to Priest Ethan?”
It was a bullshit that would never happen again in the world.
Ethan had a blank face as if he had been hit in the back of the head.
But Chloe and Charlotte looked at Ethan with a wretched look, wondering if they had misunderstood.
“You must be very tired, Priest. Your eyes are out of focus!”
“We were so rude. Let’s go back quickly.”
“Next time, please tell me about Stella-sama!”
“rest!”
The twins turned inside out of Ethan and disappeared.
Ethan clenched his fists for a while.

It was late at night.
It was a dark night street, but temporary tents were installed everywhere.
There were many collapsed buildings.
The damage to the buildings that were in charge of administrative work was also severe.
For this reason, there were many cases in which temporary tents were in charge of the work of buildings that had ceased to function.
However, the main role of the temporary tent was as a shelter.
Many refugees lost their homes or were injured in the raid.
They needed a place to treat them right away.
In addition, there were people who had no place to go because their residences were destroyed, so temporary tents were playing a big role.
“After all, the denominations are the ones who can’t deal with each other.”
Ethan muttered as he sat in the dark corner between the makeshift tents.
Even originally, Ethan’s thoughts on the Church of Pars were firm.
They always emphasized frugality.
If there was no private money, the clothes had to be worn in rags.
The meal was terribly poor.
‘It’s probably because of the difference in size between the priests who fought during the Anti-Magic War and the kids now.’
Ethan clicked his tongue.
Over a hundred years have passed.
Meanwhile, several magical and alchemical techniques were developed that would increase the yields of agriculture.
In fact, it can be seen that people’s lives have become more prosperous than in the past.
Nevertheless, in Ethan’s eyes, the life of the priests was the same.
Nothing has changed from a hundred years ago.
‘Certainly, dirty clothes must be made in the upper part of the church.’
Ethan was so sure.
Wearing clothes did not end with just food and wealth.
The exploitation of the labor force could not be ignored either.
Under the doctrine that it is impossible to ignore the wounded, the priests of the church were brutally beaten with tens of hours of work.
“These filthy bastards… … .”
Ethan stuck out his tongue.
The denominations, even Ethan, were putting in treatment.
A person who had just passed out because of Stella and was lying in bed not too long ago.
Of course, there was a high probability that Ethan was recognized as an injured person in classification.
However, the Pars Church ignored it and even Ethan put it into the treatment of the wounded.
It was a treatment that could only be considered unfair.
Of course, Ethan was fine except for a stomach ache from the aftereffects.
It was also a problem due to excessive consumption of the magical powers of the spoils, so Ethan was well aware that he was not wounded.
‘But the denomination must think that I am wounded.’
Ethan thought that was the case.
“Vile and poisonous bastards.”
Ethan muttered a curse.
At that moment, I felt a sign of approaching Ethan from a nearby place.
Ethan turned his head.
Its owner was Robert.
“I was here. Why is the main character who saved Central from the raid alone in a place like this?”
Robert asked, seemingly absurd.
On the contrary, Ethan was more absurd.
‘Even if I hide, if I don’t rest, I’m going to find out right away and treat at least one more person. Do I want to go out?’
After all, it was clear that Robert had exchanged his eyes with swordsmanship.
“Anyway, you shouldn’t hold on to a busy person too much. Actually, I have something I want to tell you.”
“What?”
“At that time, I was able to live thanks to you. Thank you. I owe my life.”
“ah. You mean then?”
The battle between the Dread Predator and Robert flashed through Ethan’s mind.
At the time, Ethan’s judgment was correct.
Of course, Stella’s performance could have avoided the worst.
Although Stella has superpowers, she is not used to reading the flow of battles.
So, seeing Robert’s situation, Ethan acted first.
Although Stella could be a one-on-one move, it couldn’t be the best move.
A white wolf with thick bones on the battlefield, Robert knew it well.
That’s why I came to find Ethan and say thank you.
“I’m ashamed of myself for treating you like a kid. How the heck did the priest succeed in the will of nothingness?”
As an uninhabited man, he seemed curious.
Robert’s question seemed meaningless.
But Ethan was offended by the question.
Carrying on the will to invincibility?
What does that mean?
‘You’re going to carry on the will of a crazy fool with that muscle? I?’
It was a disgrace for Ethan.
“ha ha ha. Do you keep your will? I only had the opportunity to meet his disciple and compete with radish.”
Ethan drew a line with a smile.
‘Is that muscle idiot my teacher? Where do you dare get such a haircut?’
There was not a single lie in Ethan’s words.
There was only one reason why Ethan had mastered Kayden Hanson’s knuckle.
‘Because he’s the most useful for his knuckles!’
There was no room for sentimental words such as will or disciple to intervene in such a pragmatic thought.
But Robert didn’t believe it.
