Saikyou Juzoku Tensei ~Cheat Majutsushi no Slow Life~ Chapter 340 - Episode Forty - Pope Sateria (5)

Chapter 340 - Episode Forty - Pope Sateria (5)

I, along with Peter and a, set off for the holy city of Rivualin in the Riveras Kingdom aboard the small wooden dragon tsutori.

The small wooden dragon tsutori is an automaton that I commanded to be built as a substitute for the wooden dragon Quetzalcoatl.

It is about seven ters long and has the overall appearance of a crunchy dragon.

The wooden figure Quetzalcoatl was designed with red as its base color to represent the sun, and the small wooden figure of tsutori was designed with blue as its base color to represent the moon.

It can fly by generating strong buoyancy from a spherical lump of magic ore embedded in its chest, which is engraved with a magic formula.

It has wings, but they are mostly just for decoration, and they do not move.

In addition, the wards deployed from the magic ore blocks headwinds and creates a force field that cancels out the inertial force when accelerating or decelerating.

Peter looked down at the ground far below with dead-looking eyes and let out a sigh.

“…… Abel-chan, it can’t be helped that the situation is what it is, but using teleporation magic, golems, or dragons to travel outside of your country is considered taboo, so please don’t do it when I’m not around. “

“So you’re saying I should take Peter-san with every ti?”

“If possible, today should be the last ti.”

But Peter’s words would not co true.

According to Peter, Count Julem was turning the four creator gods against the country, leading them to attack the Dinrat Kingdom.

It hasn’t surfaced yet, but if it does in earnest, relations with the Galshard Kingdom, the Maharaun Kingdom, and even the floating continent of the High Elves, Alfheim, will deteriorate and skirmishes will begin.

There will be more opportunities like this in the future.

“I’m so tired of this …… Maybe I’ll just leave it all to Abel-chan and retire ……”

“Myunhi-san will cry, you know. I don’t know anything about politics, and I don’t want to get involved in anything too dangerous.”

“Abel-chan can handle everything by force. I think the Sateria is crying because not only because Abel-chan alone was able to overturn the almost finished takeover on the Fage territory, but he also sent all three major leaders to jail together.”

Peter says with a sigh.

However, just the other day, while I was away, a was targeted by Rathboutt, an assassin of the Levi Church.

Today, as well, I don’t know how I’m supposed to handle unexpected situations, so I’ve asked Peter to accompany .

I also brought a along so that she wouldn’t be targeted by soone like Rathboutt, but I can’t say whether it’s really the right thing to do to take her into the middle of enemy territory or not.

There was a little silence, then Peter opened his mouth.

“The purpose of this mission is to kidnap Pope Sateria and take down Levi. You understand that, right?”

“…………”

Once again, it was a heavy task.

There may be many casualties, and Peter predicts that after Levi is lost, the country will lose its unity and civil war will rage as to which sect will be next in charge of the Holy Land.

The story goes that there will be more than ten or twenty branches of the Levi Church, if you include the smaller ones.

“I don’t an to scare you, but if Abel-chan doesn’t do it, you’ll just do the sa thing with even more deaths when the war eventually cos. This country is already out of control. Sateria is undoubtedly a fool for continuing to ss with us while we’re on the edge, but Sateria and Levi aren’t the only bad factors. The flow of blood from the dragon’s veins and faith will never cease.”

“…… I want to do this as smart as possible. You said that Pope Sateria is in the palace of the Holy City of Rivualin, but is it possible that she is away on so kind of business?”

If Sateria is not in the Holy City of Rivualin, then this raid itself will be aningless.

“That’s not possible. From what I’ve heard from my scout in Riveras Kingdom, in at least two years, Sateria has never left the Holy City of Rivualin, let alone the palace, the Holy City is covered by high walls, and the palace in the center of the city is surrounded by a huge canal, so there is no way to get in and out. The bridge is still up, but it’s hardly used.”

Peter unfolded the map and explained.

a, who had been listening to the conversation between Peter and forlornly, stretched out her head to the side and looked at the map.

“…… not even once, is it? She’s a very spirited recluse, isn’t she?”

“Yes, and you know why, don’t you?”

To protect the dragon veins of the holy city of Rivualin, I suppose.

It is said that other than Sateria, they cannot draw magic from the dragon vein.

For the dragon vein, Sateria is a shield, and for Sateria, the dragon vein is a weapon.

In the absence of Sateria, the Holy City is attacked by other sects, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to retake the city.

And since Sateria herself is defenseless while she is not in the Holy City, it is expected that she will be attacked by those from other sects.

“…… It would be nice to have Sateria in the palace all the ti because it would make it easier to launch raids, but then Sateria wouldn’t be able to leave the palace for the rest of her life. In addition, if there is no one else to take over, won’t the country be in trouble again?”

“I suppose so. That place is truly a cursed land. I don’t think there will ever be peace there. The only thing we can do is to interfere so that the people who don’t bother us will stand at the head.”

Peter said in a bored tone.

Peter said he could handle it by force, but there are so things in the world that cannot be solved by force alone.

For example, if Kudor wanted to, he might be able to destroy the Riveras Kingdom, but it might be impossible for anyone to bring peace to the Riveras Kingdom.

The Holy City of Rivualin begins to appear in the distance.

The city is within a high wall.

In the center of the city, there is a land surrounded by a large waterway, and there is a tall, large tower.

That must be the palace where Sateria is.

Finally, it’s ti to settle the score with Levi, the Water God.
