Episode 255
66. Requiem of Destiny (3)
“Why are you preventing me from moving?”
“This is the order of High Priest Bassanio. A curfew is being implemented not only for Elijah, but all over Paradise Island.”
“This is an obvious overreach. The magistrates of Nakwon Island and the Heretical Judgment Bureau have independent powers here, so how do they control it?”
“I am just following orders.”
Although they continued to assert their legitimate rights, the Paladins who occupied the entrance to the Heresy Judgment Bureau did not even move.
There is no reason for the old-fashioned paladins to take this attitude.
Against the same ‘heretical judge’.
Elijah had a gut feeling that something bad was happening on Paradise Island.

Maybe that’s why Theodore Lincoln thought of himself… … Did you have this situation in mind?Elijah recalled information about Theodor Lincoln and the Federal Republic of Eurasia that he had collected as a heretic judge.
Theodore Lincoln, despite his young age, was an outstanding eloquent and politician.
As it is even mentioned as a candidate for the next prime minister, he is a person of interest who is watching the Holy Empire of Acrion and the Temple of Canaan carefully.
So, there must have been a reason Theodore Lincoln attempted to contact him out of the blue.
That was the moment.
Kwaang!!
Something fell in the front yard of the Heretical Judgment Bureau and exploded, emitting dark gray smoke.
it’s a smoke bomb
“Clok choke!!”
“What, what!?”
While the paladins were horrified by the sudden attack, an arrow flew through the smoke screen quickly.
It was Yelia, who caught the arrow with her instinctive sense.
I could tell it was a ‘non-lethal’ arrow with a blunt tip.
‘This… … .’
There are no additional attacks. The only thing you did on purpose with a smoke screen was to throw non-lethal arrows?
Couldn’t that be the case?
Elijah went straight into the building with an arrow. As the rubber end was removed, a small note fell to the floor.
An information guild pattern that clearly catches the eye.
The fact that Baek San-woo had a close relationship with the back alley was already a certain established fact within the Judgment Bureau.
That is, the message was delivered indirectly.
And there was only one place where it was written in scribbled letters.
[Water Fog Lake]
It is a lake located in the forbidden area, south of Nakwon Island.
Soon, the puzzles began to fit slowly in Elijah’s head.
The high priest headed to the control area of Paradise Island late at night to reinforce the holy barrier.
The commander of the knights who secretly bit the judges that only two people should check.
Even that was not enough, the paladins blocked the entrance to the Heretical Judgment Bureau.
All the circumstances were pointing to either the high priest or the knights commander. Or, at worst, the fact that both of them were plotting some kind of conspiracy.
From the moment I was convinced, I couldn’t delay. Elijah turned around and ordered the judges who had escaped due to the commotion.
“As of this time, the Heretical Tribunal is declaring a state of emergency. Defeat the knights occupying the entrance, and move to the Water Fog Lake.”
“I will obey the command of the Redeemer.”
For the judges, no detailed explanation is necessary for their actions.
The most extreme and fanatical group in the Canaanite temple.
It was because it was an organization that thoroughly excluded any beings that were judged ‘unfair’ by their standards or that became ‘hesies’, even if they were the High Priests or the Holy Knights.
To them, Elijah’s command was absolute.
bang!!!
The heretical judges, including Elijah, rushed into the court of the Judgment Office at once.
The Paladins, who had lost their eyes for a while due to the commotion a while ago, started to stop them.
“What are you doing! Come back!”
“Get out of the way.”
A cold voice came out of the mouth of Yellia, who was clearly protecting Ye-woo. Eyes flashing red.
“… … !!”
The gaze that seemed to tighten people’s hearts, overwhelmed the paladin who stood in front of her.
He staggered back and formed a square with the other knights.
“Keep in line! Never let it go!”
“I don’t know what the hell they are blocking for, or why.”
Elijah said while spinning the armor that the other judges had brought him.
The silver chrysento.
Blue flames cover the scythe, and the other heretical judges draw their own weapons and face the Paladins head-on.
A roaring blue flame engulfed the court of judgment in an instant.
“I will start the heresy judgment from now on! Purify evil with the flames of light-!!”
The heretical judges responded to Elijah’s cry in unison.
“Amina!! light! They will wither like straw!”
For the first time in the history of the temple of Canaan.
The forces of the Heretical Judgment Bureau and the Holy Knights clashed.
* * *
The Paladin Platoon, which controlled the Heretical Judgment Bureau, collapsed helplessly.
In front of the blue flame that burned everything, the flashes of the Paladins were too powerless.
“Captain Kochon! The mood of the judges is not serious. The news is that, after breaking through the Inquisition Bureau in an instant, even the troops standing on the guard of the Central Terrier and the South Terrier are being suppressed one after another.”
“Does that mean that you won’t be quietly caught on the leash?”
The Canaanite priests had already subdued them. It was thanks to the mixing of powerful sleeping medicines at the banquet prepared for the successful end of the event.
But the judges were basically abstaining from drinking, so they couldn’t control it in a moderate way.
In the end, these four months have come to an end.
“It is somewhat of an expected result. We must gather all our troops here to stop the Heretical Judgment Bureau.”
“Amina!”
Kochon, the commander of the 1st Division of the Holy Knights, who was in charge of controlling the borders of the southern forest, thought it was going well.
Due to the commotion of the Heretical Judgment Bureau, some troops of the Holy Knights, who were in charge of the high priest’s escort, had no choice but to escape.
As a result, you could use the excuse that the high priest was killed by the demonic beast, leading to a terrible tragedy.
After the Holy Knights completed some maintenance.
Finally, the Heretical Judges reached the border of the forest.
I’ve only brought in some really good-looking people, but I would have subdued them all.
‘It is truly a monstrous force.’
Kochon swallowed dry saliva.
I’ve been hearing about the Heretical Judgment Bureau on Paradise Island.
Among the troops dispatched outside the Holy Empire, they boast the most powerful force.
This island, where demons are still hiding, and where the dungeon is still operating, was the forefront of all the demons.
It is only natural that only the most elite among the judges are gathered.
In particular, the rumors about the redeemer, Elijah, who leads the Heresy Judgment Bureau… … .
There were a lot of things that were hard to believe.
‘You have to deal with long and short things to know.’
One, don’t back down.
It was obvious what kind of future awaited him if he had retreated from here.
Although it was a pity for the innocent paladins, the day will come when they too will understand their cause.
“Listen, all knights. I declare a sanctuary here!”
thump thump.
The paladins rolled their feet in unison.
An intense flash of light that seemed to eat even the shimmering blue flames covered the floor.
A divine light was scattered from the golden sacrum.
“Look only at your own convictions. Our goal is to stop them here!”
A kind of holy barrier that amplifies the power of paladins within range by dozens of times.
The moment the sanctuary is declared, the place becomes entirely the territory of the paladin.
“Power Charge!!”
Kochon drew his holy sword and rushed in.
At the same time, Elijah disappeared from his sight. Even he, who was in charge of the 1st Division of the Holy Knights, was unable to catch up with the move.
But.
Kagang!!
A huge shock wave came in. The sword strike that accurately dug into the scythe’s trajectory exploded divine power and pushed Yelia away.
“You cannot pass.”
“… … .”
A few parts of her clothes were torn by the sword that flew with the shock wave, but she didn’t care at all.
Rather, it only burned the blue flame even more.
Elijah ran like the wind. In the blow from below, the divine power that covered Kochon’s body was shattered in the form of a crescent moon.
‘Shallow!’
Kochon clenched his fist. Suddenly, with the sound of bones being crushed, Yelia fell backwards.
Paladins are excellent warriors who literally crush the camp by exploding divine power at the forefront of the front line.
Just because he was deeply religious and knew how to wield a sword was not an honor that was allowed.
No matter how much the substitute Elijah was, it was not something he could easily resist.
After allowing Cochon to strike, Yeliya tried to pick up Cresento again.
“… … ?”
The left arm did not move as intended. Did he even break his bones with a single blow a while ago?
Without hesitation, she ripped her clothes off.
The skirt of the priest’s uniform was torn, revealing her two white legs, but Yelia was not a person to care about that.

Madness colored her eyes.Elijah wrapped the cloth of the priest’s uniform tightly around his shoulders and chest. The dislocated bone was forcibly immobilized.
In a way that even a few knights would not dare to dare, Kochon had no choice but to stick his tongue out.
‘Crazy.’
Despite the fact that there was an official armed group called the Order of the Holy Knights, the seat of the ‘strongest’ in the temple always belonged to the Redeemer Elijah.
It was Cochon, who had many questions about the power of the Heretical Tribunal, which was merely an interrogation or craft agency.
Now I had to admit it.
Concentrates divine power on the sword. The absolute divine power that rose from Kochon’s beliefs wrapped around the sword.
“The Judiciary will rule you as a heretic and completely exclude you.”
“Whether I am a cult or you are a cult will be judged by history and the light will judge. Don’t insult my beliefs!”
Tsutsu.
The air was churning. Despite the fierce battle, no one entered the battlefield between Yelia and Kochon.
“Fate Demolition!”
The holy sword answered Kochon’s cry. The beam of light splits into seven branches and strikes Elijah.
In a fleeting moment, seven slashes made with minimal movement.
Elijah the Redeemer did not escape. Instead, he held his breath calmly and swung his chrysento.
The divine power and the divine power cancel each other out. Just as Magi is, so is the divine power.
If you calmly grasp the trajectory of the sword and twist the angle to match that trajectory.
No matter how powerful a slash was, he could not cut through the body of Elijah.
Kagak-! Kang!

Move forward slowly and swing the scythe. It was like a waltz, enough to make viewers forget that this was a battlefield.beautiful. Also holy
Even the intense holy power that the Paladins radiated was nothing more than a handful of crumbling lights in front of the Redeemer Elijah.
“Aaah!!”
The cochon roared like a wild beast and rushed in. The moment his wicked hand grabbed Yelia’s head.
Whoa!
The red blood that spurted out wet Yelia’s silver hair.
“Fall to hell, heretic.”
The sacrum that covered Cochon’s body was split in half and fell to the floor.
The end of the belief that he had been loyal to all his life was sublimated to a tragic death.
It was the moment when the Order of the Holy Knights completely collapsed.
* * *
‘I lived.’
I sighed in relief and looked at Elijah.
Just in case, I told Swallow to contact Yelia as well.
It seemed to have arrived on time.
‘If I hadn’t called, it would have been a disaster.’
Senior Lorna Aztel must have been watching the situation from above, but nevertheless, the safety of other personnel could not be guaranteed.
In the worst case, Yura Esther and Theodore Lincoln might have been involved.
“… … Amina, light. How did you lead me to such a future?”
High Priest Bassanius sighed and sat down in his seat.
Looking at the body of his old comrade who had been cut off, he put his hands together and offered a prayer.
Since Judas Ahaman, the commander of the Paladins, had already died, the surrender of the Paladins was also natural.
They threw down their weapons one by one, and knelt before the heretical judges who appeared with Jeliyah.
“It’s over.”
I said so and put the yam in it. The assassination of the high priest, which would have put the entire island of paradise on hold due to unprecedented chaos.
It should have ended like this… … .
“Yes, Elijah!! As a candidate for the Holy Flame of the Holy Empire of Acryon, this is an official request!”
“Yura Esther?”
“I’m going to arrest Baek San-woo on the charge of heresy!”
Suddenly, Yura started to make a sudden acceleration.
