076 Observation Class (2)
No, not this.
“I’m here today to observe, so I hope you all do as usual.”
I answered with a smile.
The primary purpose of coming here was to examine Sant’s situation.
If I went ahead and helped him, I couldn’t understand the conduct of Kristel and Prince Sedric.
“·················ogue.”
Then the prince glared at Sant with a very dissatisfied look.
It seemed to mean that you should release the ether quickly before making it into an elvan squid.
Poor Sant stretched out the sanctuary, bowing as much as possible with a round body like a bear.
I also thought that my sanctuary was very shabby compared to Cardinal Bootier’s, but Sant’s sanctuary was much smaller and less luminous than mine.
The pattern was also very simple. The difference between the bishop level and the priest level seemed to come from here.
Still, you shouldn’t bully people like this.
“Slow.”
The prince growled lowly. Sant flinched.
It seemed that he did not like the flow of the ether.
I held back what I wanted to say to the prince and looked at Kristel.
The main character was making an impression on the prince, and the face was quite familiar.
Where did I see that expression? Looking back, it was Eunseo Jeong.
When I took young Eun-seo to the dentist, he used to look like that while listening to the cry of the children who entered before him.
“I want to hear your impressions that you came to visit.”
I could hear the voice of a man higher than the prince and lower than me.
In the place where he turned his head, Sir Johann Haines stood with his snow-white hair tied down.
There was a faint curiosity in the mint-colored eyes looking at me.
He still hadn’t shaved and his hair was sticking out, but he looked less tired than he had seen from a pirate ship.
Even though the priest who accompanied him was being treated poorly, he did not care.
“······I do not know.”
I felt it, but rather than that, I wanted to point out the persecution of the three paladins.
“You are welcome to speak.”
How he interpreted my silence, Sir Haynes said, widening his eyes and opening them.
Then the wind in the auditorium suddenly stopped.
“uh? just now,”
“The door to the air is closed. Now only the four of us can hear the prince’s voice.”
I blinked my eyes.
As a paladin of the air attribute, he created a transparent closed room by blocking the medium of sound.
Benjamin, Canael, and Sant were together, but could not hear our voices.
Ganael, who was sitting next to me, who felt my gaze, smiled and said something, but only the shape of her mouth was clear and no voice was heard at all.
It was as if the mute button had been pressed.
“The air properties are amazing.”
Admiration came out of nowhere. It was really weird. Sir Haynes raised an eyebrow and smiled softly.
When I looked at the expression, it was a beauty that the person could live with.
“Prince, how did you see Dalian?”
Christel intervened naturally. His eyes were cold as he looked at Sir Haynes.
He didn’t seem that friendly yet. I opened my mouth carefully.
“Well, in my right hand…. Princess Sarnez’s growth was remarkable. However, it seems that you are inexperienced in handling ice. For example, when you do a somersault and land on an icy staircase. If it had been blown to the other side without consuming it as it is, it would have been able to distract the Duke’s attention. Even when the Duke blew up the waves, if he had frozen the steam straight away, he wouldn’t have lost momentum.”
“Ugh. Right. When you turn water into ice, you need to change the ether once more… I guess it’s a bit slow.”
Kristel bit her lip. Sir Haynes took the word with his arms crossed.
“The application of special ethers takes time. You’re doing well now, so there’s no need to rush. If you keep practicing, you will be able to do it with your eyes closed.”
“okay? Is that right?”
Kristel’s face brightened. I also agreed with Sir Haynes.
Even in the ‘Great Subjugation of Beasts’, she once used the ability to freeze without being taught by anyone.
Archduke Evelynn’s book explained that the ‘blessing of the Changhae’ that she absorbed was literally a god of blessing.
If that is true, the blessing was not enough for possessing her, it was to turn an ordinary human into a paladin, as well as gift the intuition and talent to rule the ether.
In a word, since I became a Munchkin, I would only continue to develop in the future no matter what I did.
“And the Duke…”
I shifted my gaze to the prince. As he received the ether, he swung one eyebrow.
It was a feeling of ‘I’m not in a good mood right now, but let’s talk somewhere’.
“If you are good at magic and swordsmanship, you can do that, but you tend to consume too much ether in one attack. The Paladin read that the key to efficiently managing the ether was… I think you should also consider the case where you will not be able to use the hye sword.”
don’t stare It said so in the book your father wrote.
Besides, if you lack ether… you get in trouble
“You saw it right. I was wondering what kind of person you are as a priest, but you have insight.”
At the same time as Sir Haynes said, I felt a sense of openness around me.
A cool north wind brushed my forehead once.
He had broken the back room and returned the flow of air. I was surprised and laughed out loud.
Canael leaned over to me.
“Prince, a little while ago.”
“Yeah, Sir Haynes used his powers for a while. to talk.”
“Wow!”
The boy opened his mouth in amazement.
Benjamin was also impressed by the power of the air element paladin, which he experienced for the first time in his life.
As we sat down after the conversation, Benjamin opened the picnic basket and started serving snacks and drinks.
It was break time.
Sant, who had not yet finished replenishing the Prince’s ether, was struggling.
It’s taking too long, but since I’m a priest, there’s nothing I can do about it.
“Until now, the class focused on Dalian, so that we could see what kind of position they would rise to when they were officially ordained as paladins.”
Sir Haynes said, sharing my licorice tea.
“A normal paladin starts learning as a seed at a very young age and gradually ascends from the sub-level. But if it’s the two of you, it’s a different story. In my opinion… Bishop level, if you are lucky, you will become an archbishop level paladin.”
“Lucky is…”
“The appointment of a paladin is at the discretion of the cardinals. At least now that the Pope is not present.”
Sir Haynes answered my question lightly.
Unlike the priests, whose positions are clearly divided in the evolutionary form of the etheric circle, it was difficult for the paladin to clearly distinguish the superiority and inferiority of their abilities.
It was even more so because there were differences in their properties.
It must have meant that the position could be changed according to the judgment of the cardinals.
“Of course, if you open the ‘Sacred Scars’, you can go straight up to the rank of Cardinal. Unless you are from commoners.”
Even though the corners of his eyes were drooping, the eyes of Lord Haines who spoke those words were very cold.
The voice, which seemed to have subsided as if it were sleepy, felt like it had lost its strength in a different way.
“How long will it take for the stigma to open?”
asked the prince.
The stigma was a skill that was unique to each paladin and the ultimate special move if compared to the game.
There are a lot of related theories, but I didn’t read it hard because it wasn’t my job.
However, not all paladins can open the stigmata, and he said that his hard work and the grace of the Lord must be together.
But the prince was acting as if he already had it.
It wasn’t wrong, so it was a bit silly.
“The youngest cardinal-level paladin in history is His Majesty, Crown Princess Elissa of the Penetian New Kingdom. He opened his stigma at twenty-six. I know you were ordained a priest at the age of six.”
Then the prince stared at me. If it was Crown Princess Elissa, she was Prince Jesse’s older sister.
I knew she was a paladin, but I didn’t know that she was such a great person, so I was a little embarrassed.
Even after shooting like that, there was no information I could give.
“A servant?”
“bell? Oh, I have.”
The prince suddenly made a different noise. I always carry it with me, so I put it in my pocket.
After all, I have to say thank you. Ask for the exact usage.
-dump!
“Priest!”
Canael stood up in surprise. Suddenly, the other side of the table became noisy.
Sant, who had fainted, was scattered like barley sacks on the floor.
Feeling a chill in my head, I quickly approached him and sat down.
When I opened the healing circle and checked it, there was nothing wrong with it other than losing consciousness, whether it was unfortunate or fortunate.
It was a typical symptom of ether depletion. But so quickly?
“It’s not because there’s a particular lack of Priest Sant. Rather, His Majesty and the Princess need a lot of ether.”
Sir Haynes described it as calmly as if he were narrating a documentary.
It seemed that only me, Benjamin, and Canael were disturbed. I immediately turned my attention to the prince.
“Duke, have you come into contact with the priest?”
He frowned as if he heard something he couldn’t hear.
Like a statue, the sitting posture was not changed at all.
“I have no hobbies of touching other human bodies.”
My face was wrinkled. What do you mean, Ether Pig? So am I not human?

The door opened. A ray of light as bright as the sun permeated the dark bedroom.
The intruder moved cautiously to avoid waking the child.
The magic light that was turned on for the second princess who was afraid of the dark was emitting a dim light next to the bed.
In-young picked up toys and dolls that had fallen on the way to the bed one by one.
It was not because the discipline of the royal servants had become lax.
Because she had an order.
Second, even the day before leaving the castle, the youngest’s toys were put in a box and organized.
The reason was simple.
That way, he said, he could find out what the youngest played with that day, what he liked the most and what he was tired of.
Elither Penetian was now digesting the friendly routine.
No matter how busy and tired I was, I couldn’t forget.
Because I didn’t want the youngest to feel the vacancy of the second.
“Sir, I will help you.”
The Crown Princess’s attendant, who quietly followed her, began to clean up the messy room with her.
A familiar silence passed between the two. After moving for a while, the box was filled with various soothers.
Elisha sat quietly on the edge of the bed, looking at the pig statue on top of the box.
It was a gift from Jesse to Cornelisser.
“Have you not heard from Sir Haynes?”
“Yes. But there was no bad news, so we probably delivered it safely.”
To the Crown Princess’ low question, the servant quickly gave an answer.
Elisha nodded once and looked into the sleeping Cornelisser.
seven years old. I was old enough to know nothing.
The Crown Princess wanted to get everything right before the youngest learns the frightening and terrifying reality.
But the most urgent thing was to protect the second.
To make a sword for my brother, even if I had to line up with the Holy See and spend more than half of my slush funds.
Elissa was the Crown Princess of a great new kingdom, but there were still more things she couldn’t do than she could do.
The mother, who lost her lover, often lost judgment due to madness, and her father expanded his footsteps by acting as the king’s representative each time.
It felt like I was really missing out on my brother if I went.
Jesse ate his father’s poison and fell down in front of Elither, and there were times where he almost got shot.
It was not rational judgment that made his father act, but the madness of inferiority and jealousy.
She had no options at all.
So it was. What made me think that I should live by sending that child as a hostage.
“Don’t worry too much, my lord. His Majesty the Prince must be doing well.”
“The prince has awakened into a paladin. Any princess.”
“·················ogue.”
“And my brother. Wasn’t it said that the ether was manifested there? Such miracles are rare.”
The princess bowed her head.
Her long, dark golden hair swept down onto the serpentine sheet.
Elisha briefly kissed the forehead of the sleeping youngest.
“I am anxious. I thought the Lord might have placed the child in the Empire.”
“majesty.”
She had to ascend the throne safely and bring her sister.
The three had to meet again in the new country.
That was the promise of Elither, Jesse, and Cornelissa.
If the relationship breaks down due to the whim of the god, if the Empire does not let the child go…
no.
“You will definitely get it back.”
The princess whispered.
A bright yellow flame rose from her fingertips and then quickly disappeared.
