Chapter 298 – Chapter 298-the Guardian Saint

Olivia had many conversations with Marne over the next few days.

Difficulties in everyday conversation and when squeezing divine power.
Thanks to God as the same clergyman and so on.

Olivia remembered the times when she would enjoy talking to nuns her age her.

She became so close to Marne that she called Mr. Olivia. Olivia instead of her saintess her.

And during a conversation between the two of them at the Saint’s Party, she heard that Olivia was very surprised.

In just under a year.
It was said that Marne had a level of divine power that was slightly lower than that of an ordinary priest.

“Is that… Really?”

“Haha, yes… Actually, I was very worried about that. I couldn’t properly treat my precious comrades due to my inability to come back several times… To the point where I really hated myself.”

“But now Marne-sama is…”

“Yes, hehe. I have quite a lot of holy power now!”

‘Not quite. Divine power far greater than mine…… It’s really like being called a saint.’

“Actually, this is also thanks to my enlightenment.”

“Enlightenment… Is it?”

“Yes! It was very simple and obvious, but it was a realization that everyone turned away from. I learned it while receiving counseling from someone.”

Each person’s standard of enlightenment is different.

Even if it was the words Marne gained her realization, it was unclear whether they would work for her.

Still, Olivia wanted to know what Marne’s realization was.

“What is that realization?”

“Ah, that’s right. It’s just being thankful. When there are happy things, when there are happy things. It’s giving thanks to God for letting me meet these moments.”

“That… Is that all?”

“Yes! Even just for that… I really sincerely thanked him and believed in God, so my divine power really increased.”

“Okay.”

And as Olivia expected, Maren’s realization did not inspire Olivia much.

Thanks to god.

That was what Olivia and all her priests she were doing.

After Olivia also slaughtered her monsters, she was offering her prayers of thanks to Alteil Racine, saying that she was grateful for allowing her to safely fulfill her role as a saint this time.

Even so, Olivia’s divine power did not rise.

‘My thanks… Is she not good enough as a saint? ….’

It was fun to talk to Marne, but it only increased Olivia’s anxiety about her.

However, I couldn’t tell Marne about it.

The saintess of a country in charge of defeating the demon king cannot speak weakly.
It was because she thought that she did not fit in as a saint.

‘Still…….’

If Marne is praised as her saint her, would n’t she at least listen to her own troubles her and come up with some solution to her her?

It was time for her to think about it and open her mouth.

Woo woo woo woo!

“”… !!””

I could feel her very ominous magic and presence of her.

It is a phenomenon that has always been written even in literature that has been passed down from ancient times to the present.

It coincided with the phenomenon felt by people all over the country when the demon king descended.

“Oh, Mr. Olivia, this is…”

“Looks like the time has come.”

A person who thinks he is immature.
Even now, I doubt that I am qualified.
The self who trembles with anxiety just by feeling the demon lord’s magical power and presence.

The time has come for her to work with the hero as a saint.

Unstable.
That you are not doing your job properly.
As a result, loved ones get hurt.

Nonetheless, Olivia.
Now that the Demon King has descended, she has made up her mind to face the Demon King, at least doing what she can.

“Mr. Marne. I will go to the Pope from now on. I am still lacking in body, but I will immediately leave for the capital and join the hero.”

“Oh, Mr. Olivia…”

Seeing Olivia resolving her resolve, Marne nodded and moved her head.

“Please let me go with you to the Pope’s room at least.”

Although she only talked for a few days, Marne thought she had become friends with Olivia.

So she wanted to be with her as much as possible.

Marne’s heart made Olivia happy.

“Yes, thank you. Then…”

As they step forward to go to Marne and the Pope’s room together.

Woo woo woo woo woo woo!

“Hey!”

“Ugh! Ugh!”

Her ominous mana and presence of her, incomparable to when she first felt it, swept over the entire Zest.

Intense magical power and presence, as if the demon king had descended right in front of his eyes.

Marne sat down, wrapping her head around her, and Olivia also wrapped her arms around her, causing her to tremble and lose her strength in her legs.

‘This…… Is this the devil? The descent of the demon king…… ? No. No. This…… This really doesn’t work. I can’t subdue you. If you’re this strong, you can’t compete with me at all.’

Olivia trembled and exhaled heavily.

To enhance her divine power her.
And Olivia, who has gone through numerous subjugation missions to realize that she is her saint her, was able to intuitively gauge the strength of her opponent her.

The first time she felt it, she could still hold on.
Together with the hero and his companions, she endures trials and practices, becoming stronger together and taking on challenges.

While thinking about that situation, she fulfills her role as her as a saint herself.
With that mindset she could hold on.

But this time was different.

Levels were different.
The dimension was different.

Her Olivia’s intuition her was telling.

Even if this is with the dragon.
She says that no matter how strong she becomes, she is an opponent she will never be able to defeat.

See
Didn’t her body her tremble and her legs sag like a lamb frightened by the difference in strength?

The fact that her own body had already given up made her desperate for Olivia.

However.

‘Still…… Go, I have to go. Because I’m a saint…… Have to go…… Yo. This.’

As a saint of hers, she always tormented herself whether she was suitable or not, but in a rather overwhelming and hopeless situation, she was raising Olivia’s body her on the contrary.

She said, “She shuddered like this even now and looked totally undeserving…… It always has been. I’m always the one who doubts whether I’m worthy of being a saint. So at least…… Even if I lose to the devil in the end, I have to go to the Pope now.’

The one who was chosen as a saint by the god.
The one who is called a saint by those around her.

If you sit here and do nothing, in the end, countless people, precious people will die in vain.

◈

After that.

Olivia went to the Pope’s chambers.

The Pope also told Olivia to prepare her, looking very nervous at the huge and ominous magic power and presence of the demon lord who attacked her second.

Due to the advent of the demon king, she had to join the warriors right away, but she couldn’t send the saint alone without any preparation.

On the way, she had to organize a paladin and battle nuns to protect her saint her.

In addition to that, the Pope also judged that he should put his heart and soul into preparation for this very unusual coming of the demon king.

Her strong demon lord’s magic and presence her did not only shake Olivia’s mind.
She gave a great shock even to the paladins and combat nuns who had been on numerous missions.

They needed time to come to their senses and get up again before organizing.

And after a few days.

The paladins and battle nuns were all in their spirits, and Olivia was preparing her heart her, and it was time for her face-to-face confrontation with the Pope, which might be her last her.

“Pope… I’m going.”

“I will pray for the blessing of Saint Altela-sama to be upon you…”

“The Pope! The Saint!”

Jump! Paladin Blank breathed heavily and opened the Pope’s door.

“Paladin Blank? Why are you doing that?”

When the normally polite and well-reputed paladin Blank acted rudely, the Pope had his doubts.

“I’m talking to the saintess right now. If it’s not too urgent…”

“That, that… That… ! Ma, the Demon King!”

“Demon King… Could it be that the Demon King’s army came all the way to the vicinity of Alteilia?”

“Ugh…!”

Olivia’s expression hardened at the Pope’s guess.

Now that I haven’t joined the hero yet.

If the pope’s predictions were correct, it was a very big crisis.

“Ah, no. The demon king… The demon king… !”

Taking a deep breath, Paladin Blanc headed towards the Pope and Olivia.

“The Demon King has been subdued!”

He delivered the news of the demon lord’s subjugation.

“I beg your pardon?”

“Is that really…?”

“Yes! This is the news from Gamney. It is said that the Demon Lord Tempil… Was subjugated by the heroic Heaven Demon Hypno who stole the title of Demon King!”

“Are you accurate, Paladin Blank?”

“Exactly! Heo-eok… Heo-eok… This is the proof!”

Blank took the shooting orb he was wearing around his waist and activated it with magic.

A picture reflected on the wall.

It was the corpse of the huge demon king Tempil, whose head had been cut off.

“Demon King… Tempil.”

Even without a head, the patterns and decorations engraved on the huge corpse were as they appeared in the literature.

“Really, the Demon Lord Tempil… Was attacked by a Tempil called the Heavenly Demon? How? When the hell… “

“According to the report… On the way, the adventurer Hypno, who was at the place of the Demon King’s descent, immediately encountered the Demon King and subdued him on the spot.”

“Huh…”

The pope slumps over the absurd report and leans on his back.

The report that it was as if he met and killed a goblin on the road did not enter the Pope’s mind properly.

“And the hero… The Heavenly Demon Hypno said that he had a video he had taken when he subdued the Demon King at the time. The video was also shown in Gamney, and the Demon King’s corpse was also confirmed, so I think it must be true.”

“Okay.”

‘The Demon King has been subjugated. So simply and quickly…….’

“Where is Paladin Blank, the hero, Hypno, the Heavenly Demon?”

“Currently, it is said that he is still in Gamney.”

“Then, hurry up and send someone to tell the hero, the Heavenly Demon, Hypno. Please stop by Alteilia.”

“Oh, I see!”

Paladin Blanca immediately left the Pope’s room.

And the Pope and Olivia are left alone.

The Pope let out a sigh and spoke to Olivia.

“Saintess, first… Go back and rest.”

“Yes… The Pope.”

Olivia nodded and left her room with her head down.

Olivia, walking down her aisle, went to the Saint’s Party.

‘Why was the Demon King subdued? Why…….’

While walking, Olivia still couldn’t accept the idea of ​​subjugating the demon lord.

It was a demon emitting such powerful energy.

She was a demon king who had no choice but to sit down and think about defeat.

The hero who was just passing by such a demon king easily defeated him.

It is said that in order to defeat the demon king, the warrior moved to the capital from an early age and built up training.
She and she herself have built up her training her as a saint since she was a child so that she can be worthy of her saint.

However, with the demon lord subdued, the day when the daily results of his training his would bloom was gone.

“Why…”

Why.
Why.
Why.

Why did he go through so much agony and toil?
She was able to believe in herself as a saint.
He was able to admit that he was a saint.

Is it that the days I worked hard for have no place to show off?

I am happy that the Demon King was subdued.
It’s such a blessing, and I can only thank the hero who subjugated it.

But apart from that, I couldn’t help but feel empty.

‘If the demon lord is going to be subdued like this, why was I chosen by God…… Ah.’

Then Olivia came to an idea.

‘Is that so, Lord Alteila? I…… I…….’

It was a thought that made Olivia’s troubles even worse.

‘Because I don’t fit in as a saint… Did he send down a hero because he was too weak to defeat the demon lord?’

Alteilasin did not give an answer to Olivia’s question.
