Chapter 218 – Crusaders

Three days have passed since the justice of this world was established.

Elise and I did our best to drive out the evil beings and save the poor in distress, but the world didn’t seem to have changed much. However, I believed that our noble sacrifice would not have been in vain, and today I stopped by the guild to seek work.

“Hey, Barbarian Shack! It’s been a while!”

Copson, who was inside, looked at me, smiled brightly, and waved his hand while teasing the chin. Such a cute kid. How long have you been seeing it?

It was so fucking amazing that my hair got better while I couldn’t see it.

“Yeah. It’s been a while.”
“What have you been doing?”
“Well, I did some good things in a while.”
“Who else have you killed!”
“No shit.”

For 3 days, they shook their hips happily, went out to shop together, and met Elise once to have a meal. It seems like I just spent all three days with girls.

How many times have you done that
I can’t count.

Elise has not yet returned to church. When she asks, she says she has a little more to sort out. Well, that’s a good thing for me. I’m sorry to break up with you

She then went to the Brass Fortress Society Church for postmortem and she reported that there was a giant’s corpse and a tunnel the cultists were digging. She said the pastor who had given her the holy water the other day came out and promised to pay her back after an investigation.

When you do good things, good things happen.

Anyway, I didn’t have to explain this to Copson, so I just skipped it.

“What, are you busy? I haven’t eaten breakfast. Shall we go get something to eat?”
“Umm, I didn’t eat anything. Let’s go eat.”
“Let’s do it.”

I went into a nearby restaurant with Copson.

What’s on the menu, do you need to eat something good with Copson? The breakfast menu, which is a stew with cheap meat and crusty bread, is enough to solve a simple meal.

I ordered something like that and sat down and cracked the cobson and nogari.

After Copson boasted of her, he finally asked how he could find a woman. When he answered to fix the chin, he started to get angry.

In that atmosphere, he talked all the time, and Copson said as if he remembered something.

“Ah, Barbarian. Do you remember the other time I said that there are bandits infesting Baron Dodens?”
“Hmm? Ah, that was him. That. Those bands of robbers who say they worship what god?”

It sounds like something we talked about while drinking.
What kind of guys were they

“It’s the rain god Ezatsu.”
“Yes, it was. But why?”

Stew came out.

Copson clumsily picked up the bread, dipped it in the stew, stuffed it into his mouth with the most bliss, and mumbled.

It is quite impressive to see his protruding jaw his move up and down.

“I heard that the army of Baron Dodens has been defeated.”
“Distant bullshit, that’s it.”

I almost spewed out the bread I was chewing.

The baron’s army, who even gave moral bread to the orcs, lost to a band of robbers?

“It’s just a story I’ve heard. I’ve heard… Yes. It’s an ominous rumor. First of all, do you know what kind of god Ezatsu is?”
“It’s called a secret god.”
“To be precise, he is the god of bandits. He is an evil god worshiped by those who enjoy murder and plunder. He is probably treated as heresy in most kingdoms.”

Copson said with a rather serious face.

No matter what the baron’s army was, it was so surprising that a professional murderous organization called the army lost to a band of robbers in the middle of the day.

What are you bullying?

“The leader of those bandits claims to be an apostle of Ezatsu. I don’t know if it’s because the baron looked down on them or because he was careless, but anyway, the army was defeated and the bandits attacked the village of Yertak near the baron’s territory. It’s news that it’s been occupied.”

Copson, who had just ordered a beer, drank half of it at once.

“Is the chief’s name Jang Gak by any chance?”
“Jiang Jak? I don’t know.”

Isn’t it a long angle?
Taiping Island believers are innocent.

To sum up the story, it sounds like the head of a band of robbers who claimed to be the apostle of evil spirits destroyed the subjugation army and took over a village without permission.

Occupied village… I decided not to think about what kind of hell road might be unfolding. Because there was no mercy for the cruel robbers of another world. It would be rather ‘lucky’ if they were killed and slaughtered.

Could have been worse.

“Well, by the way, are the robbers that strong? No matter how careless they are, they must be the army. They’re not the ones who go to war once or twice, and there’s no reason to lose.”

It was very suspicious.

Of course, the army is not an all-round group, and it is a group of idiots who do a lot of stupid things, but… Huh? Oh, come to think of it, I might lose.

Because the army is almost all idiots.
Even if an orc wins, a person of similar intelligence might lose.

ㅡPercussion!

Copson smacked the bread hard with his fork.
It was a gesture that seemed to imply something.

“It seems that they have been blessed by Ezatsu. It is said that each of the bandits possesses considerable strength. It is not for nothing that their leader claimed to be an apostle… They have become an army of pagans who are running out of control.”
“It’s so damn scary. Isn’t this going to be fucked up here too?”
Hehe, it can’t be.”

I also drank beer.
It’s a chilling story.

Cloudy would love it, but if war broke out he would have no choice but to move to another city. War is too dangerous. I was a person who hated war so intensely that I was active in the Internet pacifist community.

I am very aware of the risks.

Hitler… Stalin… Fascism, imperialism…
Just putting it in your mouth is terrifying.

—-War is an absolute sin that shouldn’t exist.

“There are already rumors that the surrounding churches are gathering crusaders, and there are rumors that the lords of Isvant and Krasheim are also sending reinforcements. ‘S smell. This is an opportunity.”

Copson started sniffing the money without knowing the subject.

“No, you bastard. The army has been dumped, but the adventurer is going to punish me for what money.”
“Hehe, you don’t know. It’s Baron Dodens who was defeated, not us. The crusaders and the lord’s army. And if all the mercenaries and adventurers in the vicinity go, Ezatsu and nothing else will be no opponent.”
“You’re 10 years old with groundless confidence.”
“Well, it’s definitely dangerous, but wouldn’t there be a reward like that? No matter how strong you are, you can’t use the one that stands in front of the number of heads. It’s not very groundless.”

As the saying goes, historically, it was true that there were not one or two armies who were fooled by their head count.

Apart from that, it seems that if a punitive force of that size is formed, there will be many corners where money will come rolling in.

Well, I should talk to Cloudy.
Hearing Copson’s words makes me feel a little harsh.

If a large-scale punitive force is organized, it wouldn’t be bad to jump on the bandwagon. Due to the nature of people in another world who are crazy about money, if something like this happens, they will jump in without hesitation.

The power of capital is beyond imagination.

As a joke in another world, there is even a saying that if you get a bounty, even a dragon nestled in the back mountain will be caught the next day.

I finished the stew and stood up.

“Keep it. I ate well. Well, if you have nothing to do, would you like to go to a gambling house with me?”
“Then you disgrace the group, you gambler bastard.”
“The homicidal maniac talks a lot.”
Hehe… Who’s the homicidal maniac?”
“To deny it. So are you going?”
“I’m not going.”
“Oh, why aren’t you going? You need someone to kick you if you lose money.”
“Sounds crazy.”
“Well, bye. See you next time.”
“Yes.”

That’s how I broke up with Copson.
You gambler addict.

I had a strong hunt that someday I would bleed because of that. Because there is no hogu that is easier to cook than an adventurer who is addicted to gambling and hungry for women.

“Oh, Shiva. I’m full.”

…Ezathra, the god of bandits.

It’s not that I’m not interested.
Well, if something happens to that, you’ll find out naturally.

On the way back, let’s tell Elise and we’ll go.

It was when he was on his way to Eligene’s lodging.

ㅡ Tak Tak Tak Tak!

Footsteps heard.

It wasn’t uncommon to see someone running around in the streets, but people always have to be careful. Could that jumping out be a pickpocket? I didn’t want to cause any misfortune, so I leaned against the wall and looked back.

“There! Swordsman! Stop!”
“Well?”

When I turned around, a blonde woman was running towards me. She yelled out loud as she pointed at me.

Who is it?
Something left a lasting impression in my memory.

Blond hair with a voluminous back.

The bangs were cut in a straight line, so it gave off a strong feeling. Her eyes of her were blue, and her breasts were barely visible. Small breasts? Are there no breasts at all? The dress she was wearing was a white uniform that looked like a cheongsam.

Uniform.

A white cheongsam with gold embroidery.

What was visible below was her thighs, which looked as sturdy as her healthy horse, and long white boots that looked like they were matched with a uniform.

Something… Something… I’m trying to remember!

“Martial arts master!”

He shouted hysterically and drew his sword!
That bastard who gave a fuck to me!

Could it be revenge for what happened then!

“You bitch! Are you here for revenge!”

She immediately took a combat stance by unleashing a murderous herbivore of the chief swordsman. Passers-by who were walking nearby ran away from the sudden uproar, and they ended up standing alone with the martial arts master on the street.

“Haa… Haa… I finally found you, you barbarian swordsman!”

She said as she let out her wild breath, as if she had been sprinting.

“Who are you!”
“What, what! Could it be that you forgot me!”
“Yes! Who are you!”

She timed her ambush by licking her mouth just right.

It seemed clear that she had come to see the end of her life or to make a life-and-death decision, if she even came to seek revenge. He was a bitch to the point that I already had a cat crush once, but his kicks were quite fierce, so he was a tricky opponent.

Will you fight!

“My name is Mariel! Didn’t she tell you last time that Mutou is a guild’s low-ranking instructor!”

Was it that name?

Mari El shouted her ferociously and she began to whimper. Her straight hair in the back is very full compared to her bangs her. She had the impression of a lion.

Although her thighs were her words her.

“Are those thighs beautiful! They’re like you cowardly motherfuckers!”
“Huh, thighs… Huh, stop talking nonsense and say your name!”

My Name…!

“An out-of-this-world existence.”

If so, it makes sense to inform.
Holding the sword, I spoke heavily while adopting the most murderous stance.

“The Heavenly Demon.”

Because that “Name” Was very heavy.

The name of the Heavenly Demon.

Never light

“I’m a thousand.”

At the same time, the internal power was released. Perhaps overwhelmed by that momentum, Mariel also repeated my name with a serious expression.

“Yes… Do you call me the Heavenly Demon?”

She stood up straight as if she had regained her composure.

What?
Are you not planning on attacking?

“Heavenly Demon, I came to challenge you to a duel.”

Then he pointed at me with a bold attitude.

“What? A duel?”
“At that time, we couldn’t have a proper match. Aren’t you also a warrior? I’ve been looking for you for the past few days to make a proper match and cover up the wrongs.”

It seemed that he was looking for me because he was outraged that he had been punished at that time.
No, this kid?

“No, if you lose, you have to admit it.

If my memory is not wrong, I remember that I was thrown into the gutter without even resisting in front of my flamboyant real estate law.

“No! It’s not!”
“Ha. It’s ugly after losing it? Get out of here. I’m a fucking busy body.”

Not interested in weak opponents.
I waved my hand while pinching my nose.

“It’s impossible to say defeat!”
“What isn’t it… I’m going to go out.
“Such an insult…!”

As I brushed her teeth, Marielle, her face her completely red, screamed hysterically.

“Are you going to avoid the match! Cowardly! Barbarians!”
“…What?”

Win.

Avoid?

“The Heavenly Demon.”

It felt like something in her head her was disconnecting.

A bigger taboo than calling me a barbarian.

“Never avoid a fight.”
“…”

Erase your mischievous mind.
The Heavenly Demon shouldn’t be light.

With an extremely sincere heart, I look at the challenger in front of me.

“I’ll make you regret teasing Mouth. Come on.”
“…Quit.”

Will it be slightly chewy?
It is also a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of a bit of

Mariel hesitated for a moment, then continued.

“I’ll make a condition before that.”
“Condition?”
