Episode 109 – Continuing Question (2)
Xian took out his smart phone from his bosom.
And when I checked the notification window that popped up, my mind went blank.
Kendrick’s words that Muriel took his own life.
At the same time, the story unexpected quest was cleared.
And a newly emerging story-linked quest.
“This is what it is…”
dizzy mind.
Xian first confirmed the cleared story quest.
Hold on.
『[Story Sudden Quest] – ‘The Truth Hidden in the Truth’ (Clear!)』
▶The source of the plague that was located in Muriel’s ruins!
A thousand years ago, Muriel had a long conversation with Kyle.
Muriel has hidden something related to the secret in the ruins.
And the secret is Muriel himself.
Demon 7 Lords. It was Luciria, the demon of lust.
Muriel foresaw that the devil would one day be resurrected.
At the end, he foresaw that his body would become an irreplaceable evil in the world.
So Muriel decides to bury the secret deep in the ruins.
I decided to lock myself in a place where no one could find me.
By killing yourself.
But now, a thousand years have passed.
Someone uncovered the secret and resurrected the demon.
The moment when an evil that will never exist again was about to be born!
You succeed in driving out that evil with your amazing wit!
And even to save Muriel, who was suffering from being trapped in a thousand years!
Ahh!
What a fairy tale!
You are truly a prince on a white horse!
Be honest!
you! ‘If only Muriel was a thousand years younger…’ I was thinking!”
＜Reward: Kendrick＞
.
.
“…?”
Xian wanted something.
Do you want Muriel to be a thousand years younger?
What if Muriel was a thousand years younger?
Xian really wanted something.
And I’ve been feeling it all this time.
“Aren’t you crazy?”
After all, the mobile lord seemed to be out of his mind.
well, anyway.
As Xian thought, Muriel seemed to have foreseen this situation.
But one thing.
-Saint Muriel had no reason to end her own life.
Was there any reason to kill myself?
Of course, Muriel knew that Lushria, the demon of lust, was targeting him.
That’s why, after Muriel’s death, he left behind a special power so that Luchuria could not easily dominate.
In doing so, Luchuria was able to obtain Muriel’s rotten body.
But that is literally after Muriel’s death.
In a word, there was no need to hasten his death.
He could have prepared another way while he was alive.
If it didn’t work out, it didn’t matter if I did it right before I died.
However, Muriel dared to take his own life.
As if it must be done.
-And… the order the previous lord left was also strange.
Kendrick said with blue eyes.
A thousand years ago, the order Kyle gave to the Knights of the Black Lion was as follows.
‘Kill the people of the Vatican.’
And for that reason, Kyle said:
‘The only thing I can tell you is that the powers of the Holy See are related to the devil.’
-However, at that time… it was after all the demons had already been annihilated.
A thousand years ago, demons invaded the continent and threw it into chaos.
All the demons disappeared by the 6 Arnaises.
After the final battle in the dark forest.
Demons completely disappeared from the continent.
Kyle’s order came shortly after the final battle.
In a word, the forces of the Holy See could not have anything to do with the devil.
However, Kyle gave such an order to the Black Lion Knights.
– I was also very doubtful, but the former lord seemed convinced. And when I saw Saint Muriel’s suicide, I thought of this.
The fight against the devil is not over yet.
At that moment, Kendrick’s dark blue eyes burned deep.
– I… I still can’t forget it. The demons who brutally slaughtered my family. And me who couldn’t do anything.
I felt an indescribable rage.
Master Kendrick’s rage.
It was truly indescribably horrible.
and this anger.
-The previous lord… taught me how to fight demons. And yet the devil is not gone, my grudge is still there.
It was the grudge that brought Kendrick back to life as a Death Knight.
“·······”
Xian had nothing to say.
I can feel Kendrick’s rage right now.
However, hidden in that anger, Xian could feel a greater sadness than that anger.
A thousand years have passed, but Kendrick has not forgotten.
How did Kendrick live through those distant years?
-Please allow me to follow the lord.
Xian did not dare to say ‘understanding’.
Sian nodded slowly.
Honestly, what is the reason for refusal?
Kendrick is a skill comparable to the advanced master.
It was safe to say that it was the second sword on the continent that would not easily be pushed back even if it fought Durak.
They even follow Xian as their lord.
It was pointless to explain any more reasons.
Xian calmly looked down at the smartphone screen.
A newly emerging story-linked quest.
Xian touched the screen again.
Hold on.
『[Story Linked Quest] – ‘Finding the Continuing Truth’
▶A thousand years ago, after the final battle.
Demons disappear from the continent.
But Kyle knew.
that demons are not extinct.
that one day they will rise again.
And even the fact that the Holy See has something to do with the devil.
That’s why Kyle ordered the knights who followed him to kill the people of the Vatican.
But… something is strange.
If only Kyle had known that the Holy See had something to do with the devil.
if that’s really certain.
Why didn’t Kyle kill the people of the Vatican himself?
That would have been more certain.
Was there any reason why it had to be so?
Or was there a reason not to do so?
Could it have to do with some truth that Kyle had to leave his co-workers?
Also, what did Kyle say when he met Muriel?
Could that also have something to do with why Muriel committed suicide?
The question still persists!
Find the truth that continues!
Let’s Go Go~! Hoobigogo!!』
＜Reward:???＞
.
.
“·······”
Xian was at a loss for words.
Should it be called the frivolity of the mobile lord?
Or should I say it’s a joke?
I really can’t get used to it…
And I thought I had somehow uncovered the truth.
Somehow, it felt like the questions only grew more numerous.
Right then.
“Stop, saintess!!”
A loud cry came from one side.
the place you looked at.
There, a woman who appeared to be a woman was running in a hurry.
For a moment, I wanted someone.
It was also because his face was swollen and distorted.
But Xian soon knew who the woman was.
It was none other than Laura, the priestess who assisted Arya.
Thankfully, I didn’t see the madness I felt, and it seemed like I was coming back to my senses thanks to that.
Well, it was natural since Lucuria, the source of the plague, had disappeared.
However, the face swollen due to the plague was a little… grotesque.
but what about that
It was not a big problem because it could be healed quickly with divine power.
anyway.
The question continues, but the work here is finished.
So, I needed to clear things up a bit.
“Kendrick. Just get inside.”
-All right.
Kendrick became dark for an instant and seeped into Xian’s bracelet.
#
A plague that swept the South.
The plague, which could not be controlled even with the priest’s holy power, literally swept through the South.
It was a plague that was hard to find even in the history of the past.
So no one thought that the plague could be cured.
And that’s just one person.
The Holy Son of the South, Xian.
Xian swept the plague that swept the south.
It was a plague that even prestigious high-ranking priests could not do anything about.
It was a plague that even the best healers were afraid of.
However, when Xian touches the patient, he wakes up.
Truly a divine being, the saint of the South.
Of course, once rumors spread, they were bound to come to life and spread on their own.
Xian only removed the seeds of the plague.
The patient jumped up and down, and everything that happened could be attributed to Aria.
But for people, that’s what it is.
Rumors continued to come to life and spread in waves.
Even with the disappearance of Luchuria, the source of the plague, all the plagues that covered the south also disappeared.
In just a few weeks, the plague that had engulfed the South was eliminated.
“The Holy Son of Xian saved our family…”
“My son’s mother-in-law is so lively these days!”
“If there was no Holy Son, we would…”
Xian’s name was boiling all over the south.
From nob le mt l. co m
Just one thing.
The source of the plague spreading in the south and the demon of lust, Lucuria.
The truth about it is unknown.
He would, and only Xian, Arya, and the Holy Knights knew the truth about him.
At least there was Laura.
However, Laura was unable to remember properly due to madness.
But the Holy Knights are all dead.
The demon of lust, Lucuria, also disappeared.
All that’s left is Xian and Aria.
It could be said that only the two of them knew the truth.
However, there was no law saying that only the two of them would know each other.
The heart of the Holy Empire, the Holy See.
A large number of priests gathered in the conference hall inside the Vatican.
All of them were priests of the rank of archbishop or higher.
It was a meeting in which the pope attended to decide important matters of the Holy Empire.
“Mo, this is Moham!”
“How are you slandering me like this?”
“Anyway, this isn’t it!”
Among them, a group of priests raised their voices and shouted.
As all the priests of the Twilight sect, they shouted as if they were unfair.
One reason.
“To think we’re following the devil…!”
“What nonsense is that!”
The priests of the Twilight sect are following the devil.
It was because those words came out at the meeting.
and the person who said it.
“No matter how saintly you are, this is not the case!”
The Saint, Aria.
The twilight sect priests shouted loudly towards Arya.
And Aria facing those priests.
Arya slowly stepped forward.
Haughty gestures and grace that leaks out of the temple.
Platinum hair gently flowed down her steps, adding to her dignity.
In that aura, the priests of the twilight sect hesitated.
A sense of quality and elegance.
The transcendent beauty that supports him had an unspoken power that alone overwhelmed the atmosphere.
Arya quietly raised her gaze and looked at the priests of the Twilight Church.
To be honest… there was no hard evidence.
There were only two witnesses, Xian and Arya, rather than evidence.
And the divine priest is following the devil.
To be honest, I couldn’t easily believe Arya’s words.
That’s why I didn’t have anything to say if I insisted on it.
“Holy knights led by Sir Garrett. No, the word “gyeong” is a waste. You must have seen the corpses of Garrett and his men.”
There were elements that could not be argued because they were forced.
The corpses of none other than Garrett and the Holy Knights.
Those who followed Lucuria were amplified by madness before they died.
It was mercilessly swept away by the Death Knights.
Even though the dead don’t speak.
There was no way that the priests would not be able to sense the madness and malice shown in the corpse.
More than anything.
“Cardinal Rachel disappeared?”
Rachel is gone.
The leader of the Twilight Sect, Cardinal Rachel.
Rachel didn’t show up for some reason.
Rachel met at the source of the plague.
That was the last thing Arya saw of Rachel.
Right now, the Twilight sect is being accused of following demons, but they have disappeared without explanation.
It must mean that there is something kangaroo.
“That, that’s…”
“You have some urgent business…”
At Arya’s words, the priests of the Twilight Church had nothing to say.
“I guess…”
An old voice heard at that moment.
There, the Pope of the Holy Empire was spatting out his voice.
“I think we’re going to have to do a full-scale investigation into the Twilight Cult.”
At the Pope’s words, the Twilight Cult priests were still silent.
The pope spoke once more.
“Concerning the devil’s resurrection… I will hold the meeting again after the investigation is over. And I hope you don’t tell me that fact yet. This isn’t just a matter of the Holy Empire.”
The resurrection of a demon that disappeared a thousand years ago.
This was a continent-wide problem.
The Holy Empire as well as the Charlotte Empire.
And it was a matter to be discussed with people from various kingdoms on the continent.
“For now, we will prioritize dealing with matters related to the Twilight Cult.”
So the meeting went on and on.
#
“Whoa…”
Arya let out a long sigh.
A meeting that lasted a long time.
In the process, I was busy expressing various opinions.
If you’re not paying attention, the priests of the Twilight Church will come out.
A man called the Pope… No, the Pope just nodded.
Arya couldn’t stay still.
what though
Fortunately, things turned out better than expected.
Arya walked weakly back to her abode inside the Vatican.
Click.
When I opened the door and went inside, there was a couple of men and women inside.
It was none other than Laura and Sian.
“Are you here?”
“Are you here?”
Laura and Xian welcomed Aria’s appearance.
Laura looked the same as before.
Although it was a grotesque appearance due to the plague.
It was because Arya healed him with divine power.
Arya moved slowly.
As soon as I sat down in the right place, Xian started talking to me.
“How is it?”
“I decided to investigate the priests of the twilight sect. I think I’ll be a little busy because of that.”
Arya sighed deeply.
My head was already pounding.
I don’t know if I know how Arya feels.
Xian shook his head and spoke again.
“No, not that.”
“Not that?”
“My settlement amount.”
“ah.”
Aria spit out the words unconsciously.
At the same time, a sigh escaped automatically.
A deal between Xian and Arya.
It was a deal in which Xian agreed to receive money as a condition of helping Arya.
And that amount is deferred.
So, I decided to vary the amount depending on how things were resolved.
If it works out, a lot of money.
If it is solved, the appropriate amount.
In this way.
But now.
“·······”
Arya didn’t know what to say about this.
First of all, Xian wiped out all the plagues that had swept the south.
A plague that even Arya couldn’t help.
And that’s all.
Rachel’s secret was revealed.
Even Lushria, the demon of lust, was defeated.
Even saving Arya’s life in the process.
It was not something that could be defined to the extent that things worked out well.
It was not enough to extract the property of the Holy See as it is.
It was because the Holy Empire, including the Holy See, was almost swallowed up entirely by stupid words.
so that.
“I brought it up at the meeting anyway.”
Arya prepared the reward in a slightly different way.
“Rachel has suddenly disappeared. I’ll have to do some research… But as you said, Rachel is probably a demon follower. So I’m going to confiscate Rachel’s property, and I’ll give it to you.”
“Rachel’s fortune?”
At Aria’s words, Xian tilted his head.
And at the same time, Xian felt a great disappointment.
Even so, how much would it be if it became Rachel’s property?
Although he is a demon follower, he is basically a priest.
That is also a high-ranking priest who becomes a cardinal.
Even if the clergy had property, how much would it be—.
“The current estimated property value is about 12 million gold.”
Aria’s words heard in an instant.
“what? 1.2 million gold?”
“No, 12 million gold.”
Arya shook her head and said.
Xian’s thoughts stopped for a moment, and his expression and mind went blank.
And Aria, who was looking at Xian.
“Can’t we just look at it like this…?”
Arya said with an apologetic expression and fidgeted.
But Xian didn’t hear.
I couldn’t even hear it.
12 million gold. 12 million gold.
It’s not 1.2 million gold, it’s 12 million gold!
Far, the whole body trembled on the street.
‘crazy!!!!!!!’
Xi’an was busy suppressing the joy!
And maybe it wasn’t just Xi’an?
Tring!
《I must be crazy oh oh oh oh !!!!!!!!!!》
Along with the smartphone notification sound that is heard in an instant.
The mobile lord also began to faint.
