Chapter 506
The man seed to like the atmosphere of this unfamiliar space.
“How long has it been since I took a break?…”
A man mutters quietly with his eyes closed.
Kang Seol unconsciously tapped the table with her fingers before the food she ordered ca out.
The man sitting next to spoke again, probably thinking it was an expression of boredom.
“Do you, Gentile, believe that the devil exists in this world?”
Even though he wasn’t drunk, the other person’s tongue was quite twisted.
‘The devil…’
It definitely exists.
However, the devil the other person spoke of seed different from the devil Kang Seol had in mind.
“Because there is evil, there will also be devils.”
“Hehehe… That’s a good answer. I really had to see it. … That being called the devil.”
Sreuk…
A rosary popped out from the man’s arms.
“… They make sweet promises casually. Is it to see ourselves falling into a trap and struggling? “Puhuhuh.”
A man speaks while rolling a rosary between his fingertips. There seed to be so story.
“Do you have faith?”
“Well… I have always despised religion. “It’s just the struggles of people who can’t achieve anything on their own… But now I can understand them.”
The man chuckled.
“If it is truly an unattainable dream, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to pray to an infinite being like this.”
“If you don’t mind, what happened to you…”
When Kang Seol asked, the man showed a skeptical attitude.
“It’s not sothing worth telling anyone. Still… I was grateful for the interest.”
As the opponent becos defensive, Kang Seol’s curiosity ends here.
When the food ca out, Kang Seol and his group concentrated on eating.
Rattling…
Karuna made a sound with his spoon and looked at Snowfall.
Nod…
Kangseol slightly nodded, indicating that it was okay.
‘You’re being targeted.’
I felt like quite a few people were watching this store.
It seems they are the ones who followed Chali.
‘… It’s pretty good, isn’t it?’
The opponent’s level was not that low. Of course, not all people were like that, but only so were like that.
If you do anything here, everyone will get caught up.
While eating, Kang Seol thought about how best to deal with them.
The best thing is to leave the village and arrive at the eting point without incident.
That’s exactly what Kangseol promised to Chali. If you leave the village and the enemies attack you, you will have to make them pay the price.
After finishing their al, Chali and his group stood up first.
Grrrr…
“I ate well, mister!”
“Oh really?”
Karen and Karuna also said hello to the store owner and left.
Before leaving, Kang Seol said goodbye to the man sitting next to her.
“I hope you find your friend.”
“ah? thank you! I also want to say sothing morable to a stranger… Um… Ah! “I rembered!”
The man said while looking at the snowfall.
“This is what my friend told when I faced great despair! “Please take note!”
“… yes.”
“No human being can be perfect. So, humans… um… I think there was sothing more behind it, but I rember it well…” “
… Is that the end? “I think I heard this sowhere…”
“How dare you belittle what my friend said? “My friend is the best in the world… Well, anyway… Was this helpful?”
Kang Seol looked at the man and smiled.
“enough. Then…”
As he left, the man smiled bitterly.
“He’s a good person…”
The strange man sat there quietly and spent so ti.
* * *
Two days have passed since I stopped by the small town. Chali and Kangseol’s group were heading to their destination without much trouble.
“I’ll be there soon.”
When Kang Seol spoke, Chali laughed. She didn’t know how to express her gratitude to him for bringing Chali here safely out of pure kindness.
said one of the pilgrims.
“I think you may have taken a step for nothing, brother.”
Chali didn’t react to those words.
The pilgrim did not an to be rude, but was stating a simple fact. Kang Seol ca all the way here to escort them, but nothing actually happened.
Kang Seol grinned, wondering what his plan was.
And after a while, the presence of the Relic Society was felt.
“Is this the right place, Chali?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Let’s stop the carriage.”
Kkeeeeeek…
The carriage stopped.
A eting place with the relic society.
Five or six people took off their hoods.
“Bishop.”
“… You ca.”
“Of course, I promised.”
Sigh…
Those who take out the certificate and show it.
Chali checked the certificate of the Relic Society and was confident that they were people of Mael.
A person who appeared to be an important figure in the Relic Society spoke.
“Bishop, but that person…”
“Ah, this person…”
Kang Seol said.
“I was asked to escort you here. Fortunately, nothing happened.”
Chali caught Kang Seol as she was about to leave.
“I…”
“Tell .”
“That promise…”
Chali’s pupils wavered.
Kang Seol has already decided on the answer.
“If you feel anxious, please consider that I am always by your side.”
Kang Seol spits out words that don’t make sense.
However, Chali clearly understood what he said.
Chali smiles brightly.
Ugh…
Snowfall, Karen, and Karuna walked away from Chali’s carriage and disappeared at so point.
“Chaff please guide us.”
“It’s not a place you’d want to take a carriage to. “There will be a trace left, so pack your bags and follow .”
“… of course.”
The na of the man who appears to be leading the mbers of the Relic Society is Chap. He was a trustworthy person. Since it was a place with thick bushes, it seed like the secret place that the relic society had ntioned would be nearby.
While the Chaf and the mbers of the Relic Society were looking around and keeping watch, one of the pilgrims who was packing up his luggage spoke.
“I’m so glad…”
“What do you an?”
“You arrived safely at the eting point.”
“It’s still too early to let down your guard. Chasers may be nearby. Our destination is…”
Before Chali could finish speaking, a pilgrim who was serving him spoke.
“No, my destination is here?”
“… yes?”
“Thank goodness everyone. “That man left and the Relic Association didn’t send that many people.”
“… you.”
The pilgrim grinned.
“Ethan… you will die here, rotten witch.”
Pak-!
A pilgrim took out a dagger from his chest and rushed at Chali.
“dare!”
The man who was Chali’s closest associate took out a mace and hit the pilgrim on the head.
Kwajiiiikik-!
The scene of a person’s head exploding in front of my eyes was not very beautiful.
Patter…
brain matter was splattered everywhere along with blood.
“Chaff! “It’s an attack!”
“I will prepare! “Gather around the carriage!”
“yes!”
Pabababat…
The relics gathering gathers in unison.
“… I can’t believe it’s like this even though I chose the safest person possible. “I’m sorry, Bishop.”
“It’s not your fault. It must be that the darkness in the church is that deep…”
A group of figures walked out of a forest full of trees. What is shining at a glance through the shabby robes is the brilliant colors of Baranoa.
Chap asked.
“They are…”
“They are the Inquisitor’s minions…”
“Why? The interrogators were certainly…”
“They were fair and just. But… not anymore.”
Chali looked sad.
Even she couldn’t manage her facial expressions in this situation.
“I beca a servant of old raccoons. “I don’t know exactly what the church elders are planning, but now heresy is just a justification for weeding out those who go against them.”
At that ti, there was soone coming from between the trees, making a loud voice.
“stop. “Please don’t talk too much, Bishop.”
“… Inquisitor Kayas.”
Sionel Kayas, the 16th inquisitor of Baranoa.
He was soone who suddenly beca stronger due to sothing that happened after the war.
“You are a heretic, Chali.”
“On what basis….”
“Because I made that judgnt.”
Sigh…
A young man with waist-length blond hair.
The white jade-like skin was bloodless and felt cool.
Sreung…
Kayas takes out a sword decorated with jewels.
“A strange hybrid got in the way and almost ruined the mission.”
“What are you planning to do with us?”
“I wasn’t even told that I had to put my life on the line.”
Chali bit her lip as if she had made a firm decision.
“In that case, we have no choice but to respond strongly.”
“Strong line? how?”
A chilling wind blew as Kayasu continued to hold his stomach as if he was bursting out in laughter.
Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss…
When the wind stopped, the snowfall disappeared and the two knights were riding on Chali’s carriage.
Kayas’s eyes narrowed.
“… Did you trick us?”
“To be exact, you were probably deceived.”
When Snowfall reunited with Chali, she said:
– As long as you’re safe by my side, you’ll be fine, right?
– of course.
And after arriving at the eting point, in a situation where he couldn’t let his guard down, Chali asked once again.
– That promise…
– If you feel anxious, please consider that I am by your side at any ti.
Kang Seol’s answer sent a signal of its own to her. He said it would be okay to rest assured that he would give a mont.
“The inquisitor is targeting the head of the diocese. The hierarchy of the Holy Kingdom has collapsed.”
“Cheeky…”
“Wait a minute… but sothing’s strange…”
Kang Seol put her hand on her chin and tilted her head.
“… Is this all?”
“what?”
“There were definitely more, lots of them. “Sothing…”
The number of pursuers was about twenty.
The number identified in the village was much higher than this.
It was also much stronger than this.
‘I’m missing sothing…’
At that mont, a thought passed through Kang Seol’s mind.
‘…Aren’t we part of the sa gang?’
Now I think I understand why the gap in skill between the pursuers was so extre.
‘… These people didn’t know.’
That there are more pursuers.
“What are you talking about?”
They are not here.
At so point, I lost sight of him, so I thought I had chosen to wait and watch from a little further away.
‘If you weren’t targeting Chali, then who…’
The unusual man who was with at that ti suddenly ca to mind. His way of speaking and the information he secretly spilled.
“Oh… oh my.”
I get it.
I wasn’t sure, but I felt like I knew the man’s identity.
And just because of that possibility, Kang Seol should not have been here.
Because maybe the person the man was looking for was himself.
“Karen please co here.”
“huh? ? Uh… okay!”
“…Chali, I’ll explain later.”
“Brother…?”
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss22222228
)) ” seen
He disappeared so quickly that it was doubtful whether Kang Seol’s new form was even here.
Everyone flinched at the overwhelming speed, but Kayasu grinned.
“If you were scared, you shouldn’t have stood in front of . “Isn’t that right?”
“Khahahahahaha!”
Karen twirled one arm around.
“pilgrim?”
“… yes.”
“What do you want to do?”
“….”
When Chali didn’t answer, Karen blurted out.
“Once the ti is up, do it my way.”
Sigh…
As an unusual energy rose from Karen’s body, a barrier was erected in front of Kayas.
The interrogator’s subordinates stood in front of him, holding weapons.
Kayas admired Karen’s sword.
“Ho… That’s a good sword. What I’m getting drunk on is…”
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa?
“Aaaahhh!”
“Wow….”
A huge wild boar.
Kayas feels fear as if a wild boar, which is dozens of tis the size of a person, is approaching from the front.
The barrier was instantly shattered and scattered into pieces.
Pit –
A red solid line was drawn on Kayas’ neck.
“Huh…don’t be so fussy!”
Karen widened her eyes.
Carving a solid line on my neck wasn’t an attempt to scare .
“You got cut?”
Oh my…
a wound that heals in an instant.
Kayas’ body was not that of an ordinary human.
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Karen’s hand grabbed Kayas’ face.
But she hasn’t dealt with people like this once or twice before.
“So what?”
“Ugh….”
Quaaaaaaaaa!
The thunderbolt of fire swirling from his grasp burned even Kayas’ terminal horse.
* * *
“Whoa… whoa….”
Snowfall traveling at high speed through a deserted road. He was now going back the way he ca. And that too with all my might.
There was only one reason why he was in such a hurry.
This is to et again the strange man I encountered on a peaceful day.
Perhaps he was being chased by those who gave off a dangerous scent and would soon encounter great hardships.
“… I can’t believe I finally rember.”
– This is what my friend told when I faced great despair! Take note!
These are words left by a close friend of a man I t in the village.
– No human can be perfect. So, humans… well… I think there was sothing more behind it, but I rember it well…
Kang Seol recalled the exact sentence of what the man said.
No human can be perfect. Therefore, humans must move toward perfection through relationships.
– For you, Grizz. If you need help at any ti, let know.
– Hmm… Hmph! The great Grizz doesn’t need anyone’s help!
– Really? Are you planning to say that you don’t need as a close friend?
– Well… it might be different in Milan…
I eventually rembered that unusual way of speaking.
The inventor of the century who shook Pandea.
“Damn… Grizz!”
