“Yes? My, did you know I could do that?”
Acting sucks!
“yes! At that time, you helped the Prince and Sir John by moving the golem as he wanted. It was the night when I defeated a mythical beast. How did you do it?”
‘I’ll do anything to help, so please cooperate!’ I earnestly asked for it, and even at that moment, the giant golem was getting closer one step at a time.
Carme, who had turned pale, shook her chin and looked up at him.
“Can’t we just run away? Everyone is just as scary!”
“He’s chasing us and we don’t know where we’re going. You can aim for an unarmed new country village, or attack the Imperial Army, and things will get worse. We don’t know where we are right now, so we should stop here if possible!”
– Kugu-woong!
The monster was so large that it almost looked like its head was caught in the clouds.
The one I met in the Duchy of Blanquer was an elementary school student, and the one I met on the way to the border was a parent.
I wanted to be like your grandmother over there.
woo… Goo… Every time his slow steps broke the ground, his ribs rang and his ears hurt.
It was surprising why there were so many ‘Judges of the Lord’.
Fabrice prayed, trying not to bite her tongue.
This was led by Sir Elisabeth of Akmun.
“We chase the fleeing horde! Even if you’re stunned, bring him along, and don’t miss it!”
“Yes! Commander of the neighborhood!”
-Kwagga River…!
As they dispersed, Sir John and François hurriedly landed on the Holy Land.
I quickly supported the staggering marquis.
He and the paladin’s clothes were stained with blood.
For a moment, I felt the blood draining out of my body. An ominous, fishy smell pierced his nostrils.
“Oh my gosh. Are you hurt? I’ll treat you right away. The Holy Land cannot be unlocked, but there is a first aid kit. Once you see the wound,”
“No, Marquis. It wasn’t us who got hurt…”
François, drenched in cold sweat, pulled a small object from his arms.
I groaned and clasped my trembling hands. No, it’s a blood clot with breath.
it’s a living animal.
“It’s like a divine beast, Marquis. My energy is so weak, I don’t know its attributes.”
Sir John, who looked at the disciples first, looked at me and explained. I was speechless in shock.
François calmly listened.
“A horrific experiment was going on underground. There were people in the corner who looked like test subjects, but the golems attacked them first…”
“Yes?”
“You must be crazy. What do you mean, babe?”
Astonished, Carme opened her mouth.
Kwaaang, Kwagwagang…! The golem, who was completely out of the castle, was now smashing the walls with his huge arms.
It’s so brutal that you get terrified just by looking at it.
So loud and horrendous that the heavens and the earth vibrated.
In the prison where he was imprisoned, as if he was angering himself.
Considering the fact that we had four sick creatures on our side, it was a surprising move.
“Now that we have the drug used for the experiment, we will be able to find out what kind of drug it is when we return to the military base.”
“Are you saying there was a living experiment going on? secretly over there?”
– Damn it! Aww!
In the indiscriminate noise, I asked in a whisper.
Kristel and the Crown Prince were looking at this and doubting their ears.
Please, I hoped it wasn’t real. please.
However, the pale pink eyes that were covered by the bangs looked very sad.
“Yes. It didn’t discriminate between men and women. The youngest child looked to be about seven years old.”
“I can’t…”
– Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
“High-ranking wizards and various magical tools, which are rare in the new country, were mobilized, and judging by the size of the facility, it did not happen in a day or two. The resources seemed plentiful. I also mentioned a person called ‘Master’. There is a clear head and backbone.”
– Koo! woohoo! Whoops…!
I barely accepted the child François handed me with a cold hand.
The divine water in both palms looked like a kitten at first glance.
The little boat went up and down with thin breaths, and her blood-soaked eyes were closed as if dead.
It was so terrifying and terrifying that I couldn’t believe it.
I knew that the worldview of ＜A Princess from Another World After Retiring> was not a happy and beautiful fairy tale, but this is…
-Cheap, Kwagwagwagwang—!
Isn’t this really too much? Do you really need to be this evil?
“······I’ll do it.”
At that moment, a firm voice came from behind. We looked around Carme at once.
She bit so hard that bright red blood flowed from her lips.
The iris, which had been drained of water, was a brown color that was commonly found anywhere on the continent. like me.
“Mana, you just need to know the location of the mana core. It would be better if you could take it out and give it to me. Yes, all restraints must be released. I honestly think I’m going to die from manipulating a size like that, but what should I do?”
From the rumbling voice and eyes, I read her sincerity.
The anger that grew like wild grass was conquering the primordial fear.
Red pandas ran to me and wept bitterly.
I said ether to the unconscious cat (presumably).
“thank you very much. We will support you with anything you need. How do you know where the nuclear weapons are?”
“I know it as mana because it is made of mana. If you pour out a huge amount of mana, there will be a reaction. The area with the nucleus glows red? But never attack. You just have to drenched him with pure mana to get the answer.”
“Doesn’t the golem absorb mana and become stronger?”
“Of course, honey jar.”
François asked, and Carme answered with a trembling under her eyes. So······.
“You can use someone’s magic to figure out the location of the mana core, the golem will gain power from it, and we just need to cut the strong guy’s core and put it in front of you. It’s simple.”
It’s simple asshole! Even as I said it, it was dark in front of my eyes.
It was fortunate if the core was on the golem’s hand or foot, but if it was on the stomach or back, he had no choice but to fight until his mana ran out.

Otherwise, he had to bet everything on Sir John.
I was busy exchanging glances with my friends.
The prince has just returned to his form, and the Marquis has been overworked for the past few days.
Although Carme is a wizard, she has to stock up on energy in case she gets the core.
So, if two men are forced to join forces—
“You only have one chance, my lord.”
The marquis smiled sweetly and looked back at the prince. The boy quietly clenched his chin.
The two knew each other well.
– Koo! Koo! Kuwoong…!
“Now come this way! The castle must have been destroyed!”
‘Even if the two of you fall, we’ll be there, so don’t worry!’ Christel made a remarkably reassuring remark.
François took off his red coat and stepped forward in a shirt.
I moved the shape of my mouth as I looked at the prince for the last time.
‘Believe, stay strong.’ Unfortunately, there was nothing else I could say.
The shadow of a majestic golem like a building was casting over the back of the two of them.
The rocky ground groaned and cracked at the heavy footsteps.
Before long, the two dolls started emitting red mana.
– Whoops!
-Paaah…!
‘Cheeky, kiddy.’ I kept my mouth shut while soothing the weeping gods.
Why the hell was such a monster lurking in the castle?
Could it be that you sealed it?
What the hell did this cat have to do to have to suffer like this?
Those who couldn’t even get out of there and closed their eyes, their families…
– Quarre!
“Look out!”
I was startled and turned my head.
Part of the ruins of the collapsed castle were rolling down the hill.
It was a ‘non-malignant’ disaster that the Holy Land could not prevent.
Sir John, who warned me, quickly moved the blade of his hand and sent out a wave like a blade. Papa Papa!
-Orrrr…!
In an instant, rocks that had turned into fragments fluttered over the dead grass.
While the cardinal was destroying Carme’s restraints, I glanced at the stone that had rolled into the inner sanctuary.
Gorgeous reliefs on the broken moss-covered cornerstone—
“Wait, that one.”
There was a sudden shudder.
I blinked several times thinking I was seeing it wrong.
I fumbled in my head frantically wondering if I was misunderstanding something or if it was mixed with other memories.
But it wasn’t. No matter how many times I think about it, there is only one scene that comes to mind.
beautiful smile. Her hair was transparent and blue like a lake in the moonlight.
A woman who was shattered into pieces with tears in her eyes.
“My mother’s ambitions were so great and broad that even God blasphemed. A mind like that cannot sleep easily.”
Juliet Statia.
The sleeves of the luxurious priest’s uniform she wore were clearly embroidered with the same pattern.
The coat of arms of Count Statia.
“Oh my God, it seems to be the lord of Count Statia!”
“yes?!”
I shouted, and my friends turned around with their flags.
“It is said that the Statia plains were transferred to the Duke of Sneijder after the death of Juliter. If this is part of a vast plain, and it’s owned by the dukes today, everything makes sense! So Juliet,”
I paused for a moment. The blue-grey eyes that were one step ahead widened wide. I see.
“Be careful of the Penetian royal family, you who are loved by the Lord.”
So you said that.
‘Are you saying that the Penetian royal family is intertwined with the decline of Count Statia?’
‘It would be strange not to be entangled. Because Yulitter was the count’s daughter and the source of the war between the two countries.’
‘Few people know the story of the fallen Statia family, Prince.’
therefore······. led us here
At the end of the fictitious space, beyond the rift, I purposely placed the Statia lord’s castle.
To show what the royal family was planning at the time.
And perhaps to let you know that the present Sneijder may have inherited that legacy.
Even without asking for forgiveness until the very end.
“It was on purpose and sent us here. I don’t know if they even knew the existence of golems!”
“Wow, it came out somewhere I had never heard of!”
Ga-in shouted with a surprised face.
Around that time, the giant in front was showering with mana wet from head to toe.
-Shoot!
-Woo…
At the clean power pouring from all directions, the faceless golem blatantly ‘rejoiced.’
Red energy erupted from every corner of his heavy body.
The monster, drunk with ecstasy, stood with its arms outstretched, neither guarding against us nor attacking us.
But the two men who made the golem happy seemed to be the limit.
“Ugh.”
“François!”
The wizard fell first, and I ran to him and hugged him.
Next, Kristel, who had lost consciousness, laid her body on the floor, supporting her with her whole body.
The people who were worried about the cat god helped me by growing strong tree trunks.
In the meantime, amazing things have happened in the heights.
– Saaah!
“Ha, really…”
A dazzling crimson light was emanating from the golem’s body, which had lost its mana.
It was a splendor that did not match the terrifying existence of judging humans.
Quang-! Kristel and Sir John immediately jumped out as one body.
As I sat down, I cared for my cat and my friends and brushed my teeth.
The mana core was located at the ‘vertebrae’ of it!
“Carme! Are you watching?”
“Even if you don’t want to see it, you can see it too well, babe!”
“They will be decapitating you two soon! He’ll try to attach himself to the body again, so hurry up and grab it!”
“I will try! It’s the first time I’ve ever had such a large nucleus!”
“Don’t worry. You can! Perhaps it was your ancestors who sealed those golems!”
“·······What!?”
The startled woman’s voice cracked.
Awesome, Kuwoong! In the air, the cooperative operation of the two paladins was in full swing.
Sorry for letting you know the secret of birth this way!
“You are the bloodline of the fallen Count Statia! I don’t know, but it seems like a family with a talent for magic. So be confident!”
“Oh my God, my horse! I’m so confused right now!”
-Kwakakakakan-!
At the same time, a harsh, sharp noise like sandpaper ripped the air.
I tilted my head back.
A whip wrapped in sharp winds was moving like a sickle, cutting off the golem’s neck.
It was the result of Sir John putting his powers into the disciple’s weapon.
Christel’s ice then created a large ‘fake’ head on the nape of the neck, preventing regeneration. Awkward-!
Then, the head the size of a house slowly tilted like a collapsing building.

Our eyes widened as if they were about to pop out.
-Quick profit…
“Down, Carme! Ready to run!”
“You mean I’ve become the count’s fool?!”
“Calm down and focus!”
Whee! The head, unable to defy gravity, fell with full speed.
The direction was very good. Almost done, just grab that one…!
– Whoa!
About 5 meters above the sky, the golem’s head stopped, spraying blood-colored energy.
Damn, recovery is so fast!
-Woo…
“No, no, no.”
Then it started moving towards the body again.
Lord Johan pressed the air against it, but he resisted it with formidable magical powers.
I frantically moved my eyeballs and tapped the calculator.
Mana, who has been stagnant for many years with such a body, may not be able to be suppressed by the cardinal’s general power.
In the worst case, he has to wear stigmata.
But that is too difficult for the person concerned, and the military is far from here.
If Sir John were weary, the safety of all of us could be threatened—
– Flash!
At that moment, lightning struck the sky. I’m raging and hugging the gods,
– Quarreung! blah blah!
A thunderbolt that fell like a bee smashed into the head of the golem.
-widely!
The appearance of a man I saw for the first time in my life was a bonus!
