Chapter 347 – Kim Katt and the Forty Bandits

“Elijaeeeee!!!!!”

ㅡKhak!
—-What, what!
ㅡFuck!

With my eyes closed, I was literally ‘flying’ towards Elise. You feel the sense of speed with an incredible sense of floating. It felt as if a rocket was attached to the soles of my feet.

It spewed fire as fuel for the joy that filled my inner being to the point of raging. Good night! This is a collision with Elise! The Divine Synthesis Great Demon Gods, Kim Katt & Elise, descend to this place!

“Stop, Saint! Don’t fly!! You can’t do that!!”

It was so nice to see Elise embarrassed.

It was the first time I had seen her since we broke up after the temple was over. I didn’t even see his face her until I went to the sea once after slicing up the minions of Mad Ezatsu and spent the winter. Because the city is different.

Still, spring is good.

At the end of spring, like a spring breeze, Elise appeared.

“Why don’t you make friends? Ohh!!!!”

At the same time, I felt betrayed. I am already crying heartily. Why don’t you make friends? Elise…!

“I’ve been worrying about this all along! So I was going to leave immediately when the saints come, but I’m late! Such a mistake! Please lower your voice!”

In the end, Elise, who jumped out of her seat, stretched out her arm her to her astonishment and tried to cover her mouth her as she landed. Elise’s hand in a white glove tries to squeeze through my mouth.

“Dick, Dick Babaiik-!!”
“Ah, ah! Saints please!!”
“Debyeeeeein!!!!!!!!!!”
“F-Fren…! As expected, not here! We will implement emergency measures!”

—-Flash!

Elise, who suddenly showed off a technique similar to that of a wrestler, lifted me up. King David against Goliath… Ah, no!

That I am subdued so quickly!

“Kwaaaaa!! Elise!! What the hell is this!!!”
“That’s what I want to say to the saints!!”
“Let go!!!!!! Please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Unfortunately, I can’t!”

Then, with his mouth wide open, he ignoring the adventurers watching us and jumped over the table and started running outside. It was great speed.

“Eli-jeeeee!!!”

Elise, who got out of the guild in an instant, immediately put me down. She was truly a master of the art of carrying water.

Also damn strong

Anyway, after putting me down, Elise looked around me with a worried face and said,

“Haa… Saint.
“Elise. I know everything.”

I interrupted Elise who was about to give a sermon.

“Of course you shouldn’t make loud noises in such a place. It’s natural. This is a matter of basic etiquette and disrupting order. It’s breaking the promise of the breeze.”
“Well, do you understand? You’re embarrassingly right.”
“However.”

However, the world does not run with such correct order alone. Common sense is just words. So is morality.

Everyone knows common sense and morality, but the standard is different for everyone.

There is no truth in this world.

No religion can tell the truth.

So that.

“All stories. Once.”

ㅡRemember.

“It’s after shouting slogans.”

I stretched out my arms while staring at Elise with determination. Yes. If he met Elise, the first thing would be this. Anything else can be done later.

“That’s common sense.”
“That, like that…”

The sight of the surroundings was focused.

Those who were alone just watched and passed by, but those who made it in a group were whispering something. Elise, whose face turned red at the sight, hesitantly stretched out her arms her.

ㅡThe Cross.

“Ah, I see. Then.”

He made a cross.
Let’s get started.

“Okay. Then I’ll start. I’m starting. I’m starting? I’m starting! I’m starting!!!”
“Why, why do you keep raising your voice ah…! Saints!”

Raising all my strength, I shouted while looking at the sky.

「Divine!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!」

The cry of heaven and earth.

In the pure white space, as if the world had stopped, I could see Elise, who seldom opened her mouth. I took another deep breath, half-jokingly.

The only way to stop me is to speak up.

That’s what it means

Seeing my determination, Elise opened her eyes wide, and she exclaimed as if she had made up her mind. As expected, it was a shout filled with sincerity and power to the extent that it was wonderful.

“P-Friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Ah.”

Right away.

That’s it.

“I was relieved.”

I was relieved that you didn’t change.

So the fuss was over. Elise too. If you had just shouted ‘friend’ as soon as you saw me, this misfortune would not have happened.

Hehe, nice to meet you, Elise. How have you been?”
“Sir, saint… It’s so embarrassing…! Isn’t everyone staring at you because of you!”

As she released her cross posture, Elise made a fuss about her as if she was almost out of breath. Of course, I was fully aware that Elise was shy.

“Elise… Didn’t I tell you about the irresistible impulse the other day?”
“If you’re thinking of shouting ‘dejaaaaa’, you have no choice but to stop it! I know everything, saint! You’re thinking of screaming while pretending to say that!”

No, how did you know that?

Elise… As expected, you know Kim Katt well.

“How the hell did you know?”
“I’d rather ask why you think you wouldn’t know!!”
“Sorry… Hehe.”

As if it was harmless, she exhaled and laughed, and only then did Elise reassure her and let out a sigh. I’m a little sorry. My heart is beating like this, but I can’t burst it.

Kim Katt’s four major needs are not satisfied.

“Saints… This is what I’ve been worried about ever since I came to this city. Maybe the saints will shout at me or make strange noises. Maybe that will draw the attention of passers-by? I was trembling with anxiety because of the thought, but I devised countermeasures.”

Elise spoke of her anxiety about her.

“I couldn’t stop it in the end.”
“I can’t… I’m sorry, Elise. I didn’t know.”

I fell to my knees.

And she shed tears and begged for forgiveness like a penitent sinner.

“Ah! Wake up! Quit the eccentricity! Didn’t I mean to repent!”
“Keuheuk…! I’m sorry, Elise…! It was nice to meet you!”
“Of course I’m glad too! Oh my God, you’re crying!”
“It’s a joke.”

I got up and wiped away tears.

Well, Elise is a soul brother and a divine friend. And she is my sister in the true sense of the word.

This level of pleasure goes beyond the obvious and belongs to universal common sense.

I can’t even imagine that this is wrong.

“Nu, even the tears are a joke… Saints don’t change after all.”
“So are you. You’re so ashamed of me.”
“It’s natural to be ashamed of yourself for doing something like that. It’s really embarrassing.”

Elyze’s tone her, freed from her excitement her, began to grow calmer. An expressionless expression settled on her reddened face her at some point.

“Anyway.”

Only then did I properly say goodbye.

“It’s very nice to see you after a long time. I’m also happy. Saints, how have you been?”
“I was getting along really well. Killing monsters and beating all the robbers to death. It was quite a fulfilling life.”
“Hehe, I’m relieved to think you’ve been pious.”

I didn’t know where in the world I could find piety in my story, but I decided to do it.

“It’s admirable that you always take the lead in punishing evil with overflowing bravery. It’s truly a holy life like the martyrs. It seems like you have a lot to imitate.”
“Is that so?”

Suddenly, you even earned the title of a martyr.

In this era, beating robbers to death and taking property belonged to the sacred business.

After all, there is no such thing as truth in this world.

“I also spent the winter on a mission near Krasheim.”
“What mission was it?”
“It was a mission to investigate a dungeon discovered in an unexplored area with my brothers and sisters. But I didn’t find anything special.”

A dungeon was discovered over there… The only dungeon I remember is the dark Kobold Dungeon from the F-rank days.

How is the atmosphere in the neighborhood these days?

“Hehe, is that so? I’m sorry about that. Then, shall we go eat?”
“All right.”

We decided to go to a nearby restaurant and talk.

The fact that Elise left Krasheim and came to Isvan means that she came because something happened. Because she usually does a lot of her dispatch missions for Elise.

Perhaps something went wrong, so she sent Elise to come and fix it.

The restaurant was roughly chosen as a stew house. She sat down, ordered two moderately meaty stews, and continued.

“So Elise. What happened to her in Isvant?”
“Ah, I was waiting for a saint at the Adventurer’s Guild to tell that story.”
“What? Me? Just came today?”

If so, the timing is amazing.

“It is not.”
“Then?”
“For the past three days, I’ve waited for the saints at the adventurer’s guild from morning to afternoon… Unfortunately.”
“Ah, I don’t go every day. I’m sorry about something.”
“No. It doesn’t matter too much because I was collecting information for those three days anyway. Rather, it’s really fortunate that I met you today.”

It seems that Elise has been waiting for me for the past three days as well as collecting information. I’m glad she came out today. If I made a mistake, I would have been unable to see Elise, who had come.

“Now I’ll tell you why I came. Saints, have you heard the news that bandits are on the move in the area?”
“Huh? No? It’s the first time I’ve heard of it?”

I don’t know because I’m not going to the adventurer’s guild these days.

Are these crazy criminals on the move again? Elise deserves to roll her eyes.

“Then let me explain. We have obtained information that bandits have appeared between Krasheim and Isvant. They say that the damage to small merchants and tourists is already severe.”
“Like these bastards. They’re taking other people’s money.”

These guys are the most damned guys.

“That’s right.”

It is okay for ordinary people to catch bandits, brutally kill them, and take their money. However, if a bandit kills an ordinary person and steals money, it is a serious crime that will make the people angry enough to not be able to do it.

“So I came here along with the company to find out about it and find out the truth… Unfortunately, the bandits didn’t show up when I came. That’s why I couldn’t go back alone, so I came to Isvan .”

I’m sure I can’t go back to Krasheim alone.

“Okay?”

But a question arises.

In this turbid world, the borders of the kingdom, monsters run amok and pagans conspire to overthrow the world. The poor are starving, people are suspicious of each other and look for opportunities to rob their pockets.

It is full of bandits.

Did Elise really need to solve that?

“But don’t bandits always show up? I don’t think that’s the reason for Elise to come?”
“Yes, even churches do not investigate such matters separately. However, in this case, our thoughts are a little different.”

Just then, Stew came out, stopped talking for a while, and said goodbye. They tasted each other’s mouthful and continued talking.

“The saints will remember the last temple.”
“Of course I remember. It’s something I can’t forget.”
“I can’t forget either.”

Because it was terrible.

“It is judged that the bandits are the pagans who had fled at the time of the crusade, gathered again, and began their activities in earnest after raising their rent.”

No it can’t be!

Any evidence found?

When I asked that question, Elise answered.

“Such cultists are evil and despicable who cannot survive without committing crimes anyway. The location, timing, and brutality are similar. The evidence is sufficient.”

If so, it’s almost certain.

It’s cruel, because there are no criminals other than heretics.

In fact, except heretics, bandits are not practiced.

No, in a broad sense, it’s just that each individual has no awareness, but all thieves are no different from heretics. It is even worse in that there is no self-awareness and requires aggravated punishment.

You fucking heretic bastards!

I still remember the tower made of corpses and the cries of women. I mean remember that black monster!

“It’s still in the stage of light suspicion, so the church can’t act directly, so the cardinal has given me the task of investigating. It’s just something you don’t know, but it’s true, and a lot of blood will flow again. It’s something you have to prevent in advance.”

I think I know what Elise is trying to say.

After hesitating for a moment, Elise hesitated and said.

“That’s why I came here to get help from the Saints… Saints.”
“Elise.”

I cut off Elise’s words.

Dear Divine Friend, no words are needed.

“Elise’s work is no different from mine. Let’s go, Elise. We can’t leave the evil ones unattended, whether they be pagans or not! We have to purify them all!”
“Stand up, saint!”
“And take away all their property and extinguish their evil deeds!”
“That’s right! You’re right! Alas, of course! You did well to wait for the saint! What a pious man you are!”

That’s how the bandit extermination with Elise was decided.
