Chapter 564 – Assassination Family Raven 6 (11)

***

The saint of Caderal was devoted to restoration.

Each of the destroyed papal palaces and temples was filled with objects of high historical value.

The people who were supposed to organize such things were originally the Pope and the Vice-Pope, but they created a fake trust device, caused the Angel Incident, and were overthrown.

Originally, I had to join a party of hero candidates and choose a hero who would work well together to help drive out demons from the world…

‘Because this is also rewarding in its own way.’

In a way, I was filled with faith by being able to help restore the Cathedral, which was full of historical buildings that no one could touch.

“Oh… Saint.”

“Seeing the light coming from your body, did you receive an oracle?”

‘Oh my.’

The problem was that sometimes, when I was full of faith and divine power naturally flowed out of my body, I would end up in this kind of mood.

In order to receive the oracle from the Heavenly God, his body was always filled with divine power, and it only overflowed a little.

“It’s nothing. We’ll continue with the recovery.”

Rather than being a person who receives oracles and delivers them to the warrior, the saint, who was more of a work leader leading the restoration of Cathedral, spoke to the priests and paladins.

*

“Ah.”

The saint opened his eyes with the feeling of floating in the air.

The saint, who thought he felt a heavenly body looking down from the sky, corrected his posture in the air, put his hands together, and closed his eyes.

“The warriors were selected.”

The saint’s heart swelled as the voice penetrated his heart.

“Yes.”

The answer was short, and as I was thinking about what would happen if the Heavenly God felt blasphemous, I heard the voice again.

“Make it known widely, and you should focus on the restoration of Cathedral.”

“Yes, I understand.”

After answering, I opened my eyes and saw the image of a heavenly god.

The golden sun rising in the blue sky and the sacred lights floating around it.

I was afraid that I would go blind, but it was a sight that I didn’t want to close my eyes again.

*

“Whoa… Whoo…”

When the saint woke up, he rolled his head desperately to recall the heavenly oracle.

‘The warriors were selected. Concentrate on the recovery of Caderal.’

I wrote it down on the paper on her desk, desperately hoping I didn’t miss any words.

The saint cried out loudly to call the priest in charge of her outside.

“The heavenly god’s oracle has come down!”

***

“I guess he knew I didn’t want to drag on.”

The saint’s oracle began to spread throughout the continent.

Intelligence came in that the warrior candidates were confused as to who on earth would become the warrior, and it was expected that the day of rebellion would be brought forward.

I crumpled the paper with the news written on it and brought up the status window.

【2】

【Cyan Raven-(100%)+(EX 50%)】

【Level: 5】

【Combat power: 2232+(1750)】

【Holding skills: Shadow Mastery (S), Dark Spiritual Assassination (S)】

【Quest in progress (11/12)】

『Quest』

〈Kill the devil.〉

-Upon completion: Enhance Shadow Mastery (S)

I was possessed by Cyan Raven for almost a year, but I did not do anything special.

The first quest I received during this possession was to kill the Demon King.

However, as the level of Yu Xian, the main body, increased significantly, his fighting power increased even when he was just breathing.

The balance between Yin attribute mana and heat, which was almost balanced at first, was broken, and Yin attribute mana became dominant again.

‘It’s good to build up more power, but it’s difficult to make the demon lord you have to fight stronger.’

I don’t know if it means becoming stronger to a certain level, but now I have the power to reach the transcendent in an instant.

I thought that if I postponed the devil’s arrival and increased my strength, a bigger accident would occur, so I planned to quickly confront the devil, but it seems that God also noticed.

‘Now what I have to do is…’ ‘

The most important thing is to wait for the Raven family assassin to return and ask Alfgrid to move through space.

Next, will the Raven family’s assassins be further strengthened? I thought it would be good to use this opportunity to strengthen the Crow family’s intelligence agents.

Even if you cannot learn Shadow Mastery, which requires talent, you can learn the Black Spiritual Killing Method to develop strength to use in emergencies.

‘It would be a good idea to tell me about some magic circles needed to hide my identity.’

I thought that what I had to do was to prepare for the next thing, and I started recording the things I needed in the house.

***

Kwaang.

A man took a gulp of beer and hit the table with his beer glass.

“Don’t be ridiculous, a hero has suddenly been selected!”

“It wasn’t even revealed exactly who it was, right? Even the two strong candidates said they didn’t think it was them.”

“That’s what those gods say. Or the saint lied.”

When warrior candidates come to the bar, they usually leave the priest behind, so it was natural for them to talk behind God’s back.

Since the Hero candidates were chosen for their emphasis on military power, most of them were lacking in character in general terms.

Since I’ve been paying attention to the opinions of those around me for over a year and living a healthy lifestyle that doesn’t suit my body, I’ve accumulated quite a bit in my heart.

The reason I endured such a life was to become a hero. I put aside the thought of defeating the Demon King and persevered with the intention of becoming a hero and receiving tremendous support.

“We are trying to wash away our sins by becoming Hero candidates.”

When a hero candidate brought up that story, their eyes changed slightly.

A group of assassins who could kill as much as they wanted without any sanctions, and it was very unpleasant to see them exposed in the sun.

After the last Continental Congress, there was widespread talk that the relationship between the Raven family and the empire had been severed.

Moreover, if the range of that group of crazy assassins reaches the kingdom that is their base…

“As a candidate for a hero, I would like to suggest one last thing. Aren’t they actually similar to demons? They kill people in exchange for their lives.”

One hero candidate said while looking around the hero candidates in the bar.

The Raven family’s shadow wizards are difficult enemies to deal with ordinary force.

But now, there are six Hero candidates gathered in this bar alone, and including their parties, there are almost thirty people.

“They are demons. They are worse than the demons we defeated.”

“I think it would be a good idea to get this sorted out before the devil reaches our kingdom.”

The story has come up several times, but it’s a blur, but now it’s different.

The last opportunity to freely use your status as a warrior candidate.

“Instead of just talking like this, shall we plan a proper strategy? We will punish the evil family that has existed on the continent for a long time.”

With the news that a hero no one knew about was selected, the rush of hero candidates became unstoppable.

‘Woohuhu! Done! If we make good use of this opportunity, the Demon King may descend!’

I laughed to myself as I listened to the story of the hero candidate running wild, the devil hiding his heart deep inside.

It was worth risking my life to infiltrate a bar where hero candidates gathered and endure sexual harassment.

***

“It’s a good magic circle. It’s very well processed.”

Alfgrid looked at the magic circle I copied and said.

It seems clear that the magic circles used in Yu Xian’s class, including the birth control magic circle, are more efficient compared to the magic circles of this class.

“That’s good. Can I apply it to what I asked for?”

“That’s impossible. It’s a magic circle with no frills and no sense of the creator’s will, so it’s difficult to apply it for other purposes.”

“I would like to bring some if it would be of help to you.”

“If you don’t bring something finished, it just becomes a hassle.”

Perhaps because of the dragon’s pride, Alfgrid refused to let me copy the magic circle.

As I said before, if you are treating me as a ‘foreigner’, it would be better to refrain from using magic completed outside.

“It’s about making magic tools that include all of these things. I’m sure there’s someone better suited for it than me.”

I spoke to the dragon who was trying to pass the work on to someone.

“You should complete it. Saying it was made by a dragon will make it more effective.”

“Is there no need to introduce other dragons? I think you can find them if you look for them.”

“You alone is enough.”

At those words, Alf Grid snorted once and disappeared through teleportation.

In the room where the dragon disappeared, I closed my eyes and let out a shadow from my body.

Presence detection – zero.

The performance of presence detection has greatly improved, so there is a lot more that can be read, unlike the first time when it was combined to check the level of mana contamination.

I found the only rosette in the Raven family that had mana of a different light attribute and watched for a moment what it was doing.

‘It’s not like this, just go out and look.’

Since Terrance Raven was sitting alone in the head’s room, I felt like I too had become sinister.

I immediately got up and left the long, dark room.

*

“Matriarch! The warp gate in Raven Territory has been reactivated. There is no one who has used it yet.”

The Crow family’s intelligence agent shouted as he rushed into the head office.

It was okay to skip the procedure because I made it a priority and told them to report to me.

“Alpgrid.”

I softly spoke the name of a dragon within the Raven family who could use magic close to miracles.

A man with long red hair who appeared next to me with a wave of mana said.

“Contractor, is it now?”

“Yes. The Raven family and the Crow family in the Empire disappear today.”
