Chapter 83
Chapter 83
The interrogation of the evil god followers had started and it was sowhat rough .
At the beginning, I had left it to Velgord, the leader of the vampire warriors, but the results weren’t great and the number of people that were captured alive had been decreased by half .
“I am sorry . These people don’t confess easily, they would rather commit suicide instead . ” (Velgord)
We were unable to get any information . Velgord reported the result to with a tragic face .
This was not the fault of Velgord’s ability, rather it was the evil god followers who had firmly closed their mouths .
Their strong resistance to brainwashing magic was also one of the causes of our defeat as well .
As expected from evil god followers . They had preparations against brainwashing magic .
For the evil god followers, they had understood that we wouldn’t gain anything if they didn’t confess or were killed .
Since there was no other choice, we should change the thod of our approach .
First of all, we need to prepare the environnt .
Right now, the evil god followers, both male and female, were confined in one room .
After this, we will divide them by their gender with 5-6 people per group and we will completely block their communication among each other .
Next is the interrogation thod .
So far we will pick one suitable person for interrogation from each group in the room and bring them to the interrogation room, and each ti it will be the sa person interrogated .
Let’s make a trench between the man that I plan to interrogate and those who are just watching the interrogation .
And then, by approaching them one-on-one and striking at the contradictions of the evil god religion have them ntally collapse in the the form of lifting the brainwashing (overwriting the brainwashing?) .
Specifically…
If you are not an evil god follower, you will recover with the usual 【Recovery magic】 . As a genuine evil god follower you will surely go mad if you receive recovery magic (lie) .
As a evil god follower you are a freak, therefore you alone will suffer misfortune (lie) .
With these kinds of thods, it won’t be too late even if they beco unstable . They can be converted to a proper church .
And with this they are indoctrinated .
The man that was reford(?) due to the non-magical brainwashing, will be dispatched to the other evil god followers as the group’s page . The man who had been brainwashed will tell their group everything and explain that we are allies .
It seems like it won’t be long until a person who will betray their allies from the other groups will erge .
In this manner I had been busy interrogating in the village so I had not appeared in the town for a couple of days, but it seems that the priestess was looking for us from the stories of Frey and the vampires who had been registering as adventurers .
Moreover, she had even already investigated my na . It seems she made request at the Adventurer Guild of a “Contact Wanted” with my na and posted a written request of it .
At first, I had tried to ignore it, but she was so persistent .
I had decided to take it easy in the village for a while, but from where had she heard about ? And then I rembered Frey and Latia who were shopping in town .
She seed to have also questioned the Stew Uncle and barraged him with questions .
The way things were going, although Frey doesn’t care about it, but Latia will be annoyed .
I had no choice but to go to the church and complain about my decision of having nothing to do with them .

“Thank you for your help the other day, I am very sorry that I couldn’t give you a reward at that ti . ” (priestess)
When I was thinking on what I was going to complain about in the reception room of the church, the priestess ca in and she imdiately politely thanked .
“Pardon . I am the priestess of this town, I’m called Sara Coltu . ” (Sara)
******************************************
Sara Coltu 17 years old
Priestess
“Selection of the Healing God”

******************************************
“As I said before, I didn’t do anything at all . ” (Hibiki)
“There is no such thing, did you not send back to the church? This is certainly what you have done for . ” (Sara)
The Priestess gave her gratitude by bowing low which made dumbfounded .
She apologized that the reward given was small . She passed a bag which contained silver coins to .
I was going to complain about her persistent behaviour every day and I wanted to ask her to stop doing that because in the state that it had beco it was troubling when all my acquaintances in the town were being called out .
“Had sothing like that happened? I am terribly sorry . I didn’t think deeply about you all and only wanted to et and tell you my thanks . ” (Sara)
She seems to not be aware of it yet . Everyone would react excessively when they had been requested by the “Selection Priestess” .
In the current state, where the resurrection of the demon king had been released to the public, it was unavoidable that the importance of the phrase “Selection Priestess” would also rise .
“I am sorry Amy-san . I have caused trouble for you too . ” (Sara)
“No, it’s alright . ” (Amy)
After that, Amy and the priestess continued to chat for awhile .
Since their topic was too elegant, it was impossible for to follow .
I had tended to forget that Amy was born as the daughter of a wealthy rchant’s house .
This kind of conversation might be her forte .
I was sohow able to interrupt their talk and conveyed that we were leaving .
“Then, we will going . ” (Hibiki)
“Yes, you will always be welco to co here . ” (Sara)
“If there is a chance . ” (Hibiki)
We managed to escape from the church before we made any promises .
Although Sara was not a bad girl, but I felt a great deal of uneasiness about the presences of the others in the reception room .
“As expected, was the cause of cautiousness the “Selection Priestess”?” (Hibiki)
“If I had to say it, it’s supposed to be Sara-san’s Hero candidate, isn’t it?” (Hibiki)
«YES» (Oracle)
The first 【Oracle】 showed up after a long ti . Was it because the talk was related to the church?
«YES» (Oracle)
There was an answer . By the way, are you the “Healing God” who is selecting the Hero?
«…» (Oracle)
It seems that was inconvenient question .
Then, let’s change the question . Is it only the surrounding people who think that he/she is the Hero candidate? (Darknari: I don’t think Sara has chosen her candidate yet)
«YES» (Oracle)
Does Sara herself feel that way? Is it because you have already decided your Hero candidate?
«NO» (Oracle)
Sara isn’t interested in the Hero selection?
«YES» (Oracle)
It seems that I have to be careful not with Sara, but with the people around her .
I should stop coming to the church from now on . (Darknari: If I rember correctly he doesn’t want to be the hero)
==========
“I want your help in collecting dical herbs . ” (Sara)
My decision had been destroyed after two days .
Sara Coltu told us her request with a smile without any ill intent .
There seed to have been more of a push from her superior in the church than I expected .
Perhaps they had predicted that we will be shaken if Sara was the one who requested it of us .
«YES» (Oracle)
Surely, the leader of the church in the town had been greedy for success .
The place’s location was nearby the “Attack the Goblin Village quest” .
Even if all the Adventurers of this town attacked together they themselves would have to be avenged, the rits are too lacking here .
«YES»
Lately, the information that I don’t know has been increasing .
Please teach the location of the herbs .
«NO»
Good for nothing .
Well, the request from Sara this ti seems to be the collection of the dicinal herb, which will be the raw material for the “Demon Killer Drug”, in the forest .
As we had used the “Demon Killer Drug” like it was water in the battle the other day, there was no more stock left .
“That’s why, please help”, that was what she had said .
Although I could refuse it, but I was concerned about the dicinal herbs that beca the source of the “Demon Killer Drug”, so I said “OK” to her request .
The reward for going to the forest was one of the reasons I felt like accepting it even though it would be quite a thing to just return ho .
Currently, we were lacking money in the Goblin Village . Although we would be able to recover after Sai’s group returned, I still felt uneasy .
It will also take a little bit more ti for the vampires to get work by themselves too .
In this way, since we were accustod to the interior of the forest we were naturally not attacked by monsters and were able to easily collect the dical herbs .
“The forest is very quiet today . ” (Sara)
“Well, monsters don’t always cos out . ” (Hibiki)
“Is that so? The people in the city said that we wouldn’t leave alive if we entered the forest . ” (Sara)
“I guess so, there are tis when it is dangerous, so don’t let your guard down . ” (Hibiki)
“Yes, I understand . ” (Sara)
Sara was now confirming the dical herbs we had gathered . Even with the sa kind of dicinal herbs, there seems to be so of them that can be used for the “Demon Killer Drug” and so that could not be used .
It seems that about 60% of the dicinal herbs that we gathered could not be used .
“How do you differ between them?” (Hibiki)
“I have divided them into those that can be used and cannot according to their accumulated energy . ” (Sara)
Although it should be a trade secret, she told about it easily .
In other words, the identification should not be difficult . I confird the status of the dical herbs when I thought about it .
******************************************
Pool Grass (Dark)
Effect
It absorbs the magic in the air for its growth .
The unnecessary magic power will be gathered in the leaves .
******************************************
Apparently, this pool grass will absorb magic power and accumulate the unnecessary magic power in its leaves .
Sara distinguished the pool grass by the gathered light magic power on the leaf .
The ones that are dark and unmarked cannot be used .
That is to say, the “Demon Killer Drug” also deals damage to demons with the light magic power .
“Sara-san, may I have these unusable grasses?” (Hibiki)
“Well, I do not mind, even if I take them back they have no use . ” (Sara)
After having finished collecting the necessary amount of dicinal herbs, I sent Sara back to the church .
This grass was able to concentrate specific magic power, it can surely be used for sothing .
