Chapter 237 – Crusaders

“The Righteous Ones! At last the end of the Crusade is at hand! The defeated heathen after defeat are retreating, and at last there is only one village left!”

The time is early in the morning.

Sera climbed onto the podium and shouted loudly.

All the troops were lined up in the plaza, just like at the execution ceremony last time, and they were listening to Sera’s speech of her with infinitely serious faces.

Yes.

It will finally advance.
To Yertag, the last village occupied by cultists.

“That’s where the angel of the rain god, Ezatsu, nests!”
“Apostle!”
“Apostle of evil spirits!”

Apostle.

Come to think of it, this division was born because of that one guy.

The cause is that the self-proclaimed apostle of Ezatsu gathered bandits and invaded the village. There was no way to know why the madman did that, but that was over as of today.

“I will punish him and set right the twisted justice!”

ㅡWow!!!
ㅡWowaaaaa!!!
ㅡDiscipline! Punishment!

The morale of the Crusaders greatly increased.

After Sera’s speech her, his troops her formed a march in moderation. First, the Light Star Cross Association departed, followed by the Brass Holy Angel Society. And then soldiers and adventurers. Lastly, the Salvation Heaven Conference followed.

We just stuck to the adventurer side this time.
Because it seemed a bit dangerous to be in the lead.

Because they left behind a few defenders, the procession was smaller than when they first came to this village. Most of all, most of the civilians who had followed them fled. After seeing the six towers, he probably didn’t want to go all the way to the battlefield.

“Bastard… I’m just fucking having a hard time, so can’t I just go back? There’s a movie about wealth and fame. Go all the way there. I made a lot of money, so let’s just go back .”

Winia, who was walking next to her, complained.
If it had been Kim Katt until now, of course, he would have gone back without even looking back.

However.

“I am Saint Kim Katt.”

I am a saint

“You’re talking nonsense again.”
“The saint never looks at the suffering people. You have to save them so you can go back, Winia.”
“I’m crazy, really. Ao. I’m a naked baby these days.
“Look at Hamman. We have to establish justice in this land.”

It was a kind of duty.

First of all, money is the first goal, but as a pacifist and saint, I have no choice but to go to end the war.

“You said something like justice and fell asleep.
“Sorry.”
“If you’re sorry, I’ll pick you up.”
“No because of the backpack.”
“It’s fucking annoying. When I go back, I’m really lost, very. Be prepared.”
“I’m really sorry. I’ll do everything you ask when I get back.”

Sorry, I begged you.

“…If you repeat that word, you’ll find out.”

I don’t know what to do, but when I go back, I can do anything.
I’ll be resting for a while.

“The cut was so exciting, so why don’t you look at it this time.”
“Unnie, really… Look at something. A bastard is a guy who goes crazy the moment you look at him. It’s only because I put the brakes on that.”
“Yeah…That’s right. But let’s take a look at it?”
“I can’t say anything.”

The march went smoothly.

There was no fighting, and it was not even raining, so I was able to move without difficulty in the cool weather. Everything was fine except for the fact that I was dazed from just continuing to walk.

Come to think of it, it’s time to go back.

The Crusaders marched for three days.

There were no major problems, but it was a rather rough journey. It was very difficult to sleep outside while marching for three days.

Thinking that all this suffering came from the heretics made it impossible to judge normally because of the rage that erupted like mad.

—-Stop!

The place they arrived at was a large camp where the subjugation party of the lords was stationed. Judging from the map, it is said to be quite close to Yertak, a village occupied by pagans.

A considerable number of soldiers were stationed in tents. It appeared to have arrived ahead of the Crusade and was waiting.

“I’m finally breathing, Sibel.”

Actually, it was just the beginning, but just arriving at the destination made me feel quite comfortable. Wouldn’t it be better to take a break and go when the advance trumpet blows?

“Bastard, I’m really fucking hard. I really need to kill a bastard.”
“Please take a look. I really didn’t know it would turn out like this.”
“You don’t know what you don’t know, you fucking bastard.”

Anyway, I found a seat on one side and sat down. Except for a little soreness in the neck, there was no major problem with the body. At this level, there is no shortage of fighting.

Is it because the mana pain increased a little?

The mana that seeped into his muscles and bones dramatically increased his stamina. The increased mana was only a very small amount, but my mana management ability had already reached its limit.

The body his was still full of strength.

“Ah, my body feels sluggish just from walking. Did I mention that there are many people blessed by Ezatsu? I’m looking forward to it. I was a little disappointed that I could only kill idiots last time.”
“You said that was a pity?”
“Because they were easy to kill.”

It was an unimaginable statement from a woman who literally grinded dozens of pagans like a blender.

“It’s a little short.”

It seemed that she was suffering from the urge to cut down the strong one… What a terrible woman she was. But that part is good too.

She was sitting there, eating, and resting for a while with her eyes closed,

ㅡPuuu!!

Her horn sounded her. I’m not sure, but it must mean starting something now. At the same time as the trumpet sounded, the commanders of the soldiers who had been moving together clapped their hands and shouted loudly!

“I’m going to besiege the village from now on! So please follow the soldiers in moderation!”

—Jeolgeureok, Jeolgeureuk.
ㅡkiggik, kiggik.

As if the commanders had made a strategic agreement among themselves, everyone started to move busily. The village was not yet in sight, but as the author said, it seemed that he was planning to encircle it from the beginning and advance.

You have to do it

I followed the long procession of soldiers.

The soldiers moving in a row and the paladins moving in a different direction. In terms of experience, the troops, which could be said to be the size of a small regiment, moved in perfect order.

So it went towards its destination.

“…Bastard, isn’t that a little dangerous?”

Would I have walked a long time again?

On the other side, I began to see a village surrounded by wooden fences.

However, the atmosphere was unusual. Black smoke. So, it wasn’t the smoke from lighting a fire or a fire, it was literally a black energy rising from the village.

“What the fuck is that?”

And that wasn’t all.

Compared to the sunny weather, only the sky above the village was dark. As if a black hole had been drilled only there.

The gathered black energies created black clouds!

What the heck!

Could it be that he is invoking some kind of wicked, large-scale enchantment or something! The soldiers who had arrived under the darkened sky were agitated. It feels like the temperature has dropped somehow. It seemed that there was an ominous energy there.

“Oh, Cloudy! I’m so scared!”

Frightened, I grabbed Cloudy’s hand hers.

“Kat, are you scared?”
“I’m so scared!”
“Huh, really? Actually. It’s a bit peculiar. That way… It’s got a lot of strange energy.”

Strange aura.
Cloudy was feeling strange too.

Gnya added, running her finger across my face.

“What is really going on inside?”

What happened?

Like octopus tentacles, ominous thoughts began to cling to my body. Oh… Oh…!! Oh oh!!!!! No!! A heart that seems to fall into the abyss!

Simma was about to come again!

“Huh!”

I used my superhuman mental strength to hold on to the shaking town.
There is no need to go crazy here again.

“…A terrible thing. That must be happening. I’m not sure.”
“You don’t have to be afraid, Kat. Just like you’ve always been. You’re going to do well this time, right?”

Cloudy held my face with a benevolent smile.

Yes.

“There is nothing to be afraid of.”

Because I am a saint, Kim Katt.

Anyway, it was an overwhelming form with close to a thousand troops surrounding a village. In the first place, the wooden fence in front of the Paladins was meaningless.

You can just think of it as rushing in while surrounded by no obstacles.

The Paladins standing in the front row would clean up most of them, and we only had to pick up and eat the beans in the back.

“…Uh?”

But it was strange.
While looking at the wooden fence, I was seized by a strange sensation.

There was no one on the fence.

That common vigilante troops, there was no archers. No. It’s not just on the fence. How to say, there was no sign of any enemy as if the village was empty.

If they knew we were going to attack, they would of course have defended themselves.
But you don’t even have a guard stationed?

No matter how much the bandits are free-spirited and behave as they please, that doesn’t seem like much. Could it be that he abandoned the village and ripped it all apart? Then, of course, the subjugation team would know…

ㅡPuuu!!

Thoughts were erased by the sound of the trumpet.

“Let’s go, Kat. Winia. Should we take good care of Katt so that he doesn’t do anything strange?”
“It’s crazy, really. What kind of a bastard is that? No, he’s a kid.”
“Thank you for your concern. But Saint Kim Kat is invincible.”

Saint Kim Katt never falls down.

“I’m going to turn around. Sister, what should I do?”
“Um… What should I do?”
“Damn it. These.”

The front line advanced first, and those of us in the rear stepped forward shortly after the attack was executed. ㅡWaaaaa!!! A mighty shout erupted from the front. No, the sound just resonated across the whole area.

ㅡDoo-doo-doo-doo!

Forward and forward again. When the Paladins on the front line reached the wooden fence, —-Rumble! A roar was heard.

It started

The paladin’s fence breaking.

ㅡ It’s crazy!

Huge wooden fences broke and fell like sorghum cans. And so the walls disappeared. It was truly superhuman power. Those thick, high, wooden walls were smashed to pieces as they chewed.

Because the barriers were knocked down from all directions, the village soon turned into a shabby looking blue crab with its shell peeled off. I thought I would be able to eat the marinated crab inside soon.

—-Attack!

Troops entered between the half-destroyed barriers.
It was our turn to go inside the village… By the way.

ㅡ…

Paladins were stopped at the entrance of the village. The soldiers who saw it also stopped, and the adventurers and mercenaries who were moving randomly also stopped.

“Mm, mr? Why did you stop?”

No one opened their mouths.

At a glance, there was nothing inside the village.

No one is here?

What? After all, did all the bandits run away?

So you stopped because you lost your pulse?

“Kat. Open your ears and focus on the sound.”
“Sound?”

I listened to what Cloudy said.

OK..

ㅡ…Kung.
ㅡ…Kung.

I heard something like the sound of something falling.

“Evil aura!”

At the same time, a paladin shouted ferociously. And!

ㅡKung!

Something huge is starting to come running from inside the town!

“Huh!!!”
“What is that!!!”
“Kyaaaaa”

It was a man who had swelled up to become a giant, no monster!

He said It’s not like the muscular macho giant you saw last time! Dark monsters with no unity in the form of a human taking off their human nature and being reborn as a monster!

Daemon!

The monsters were running like crazy!

“Uh, uhhhhh!!! What is that!!!”

The adventurers screamed in confusion!

But the soldiers roared and the paladins burst into brilliance!

“Goddess!”

Brilliant light flashed—-pain! Paladins kicked the ground.
Warriors of light rushing towards the monster!

The monster certainly looks terrifying, but with paladins it could be defeated! I shouted, “Fear not! The gods of heaven are with us! Long live Eisermart! Long live Verde! Long live Serto!” Let out a saint’s cry!

ㅡ aaaaa!!!
ㅡaaaaa!!!
ㅡwooooo!!

At the same time, the troops charged with morale shouted!

ㅡKung!

Paladins clashed with monsters!

All the while, I couldn’t understand.

“Where are these fucking heretics going and what kind of monster scabs are coming out of them— you bastards!!!!!!”

These conscience-stricken Ezatsu bastards!
This proves that they do not have parents!!!!!
