Chapter 134 – 134 – Hyde and Cusan’s Secret Concubine Get Into a Fight! #2
134 – Hyde gets into a fight with Kusan’s secret wife! # 2
The alter trapped in the next room said.
“Your Holiness… So, this is the story of the day His Holiness Arud Gregory was attacked by Roland. At that time, Barakhan was in chaos due to the attack by Lord Roland and the Black Knights.”
Roland said that after killing the Pope, he headed to the Barakhan dungeon and freed the prisoners in order to escape Barakhan safely.
The prisoners imprisoned in the basement of Barakhan were full of people who could be described as “Tycoons”, Whether they had committed political crimes or heresy.
Among them, there was even Sir Agileth, who was called the “Great Sin Throne.”
Even if Rust and Ras were captured, they would have been trapped underground in Barakhan.
“When Barakhan was burning in a situation where we didn’t know who was our friend and who was our enemy, it was Naive and her ‘Rose Knights’ who organized the situation. It was also Naibgo who enthroned Lord Cusan as the king.”
“In other words, Naib became the most powerful person in Barakhan along with Kusan. That’s why so many people are in prison.”
Gold Plated Knight Naib.
Before Psyche, Naive, who was the number one among the knights with the gold plate, was a typical psychopathic person.
In the first place, it was natural for a race called ‘knights’ to have psychopathic tendencies because they make their living by killing people.
In Naib’s case, she was very bad because she found pleasure in ‘locking up people and torturing them.’
Since such a guy had the freedom to imprison and torture people at will with the help of King Cusan, it was natural that the atmosphere in Barakhan became chaotic.
“Alter. “What are you doing that you’re in prison for?”
I was also curious why Alter was locked in the room next to me.
Soon Alter spoke.
“The Pope of Cusan sentenced the witch Hecate to death. I begged Hyde to wait a little while for you to come back. If you bring the Holy Grail, I can make an “Indulgence” To give to Hecate. “I guess she didn’t like that.”
“I see.”
It was said that Alter was imprisoned by Naive for rebelling against the Pope’s decision.
I was able to see how much power the current ‘Naive’ had in his hands, to the extent of imprisoning Alter, a fellow gold-plated knight.
Soon, people began to shout here and there in the prison.
“Naive, you bitch!”
“Kusan, it looks like you’re not seeing anything after rolling around with that wet-smelling brat and carrying power on your back! I am the Count of Orleans! Cash! Send me back to where the cache is!”
Count of Orléans.
Cathy.
My eyes lit up at that name.
“Aaron? “Is Lord Aaron also trapped?”
“Hyde! I, too, am imprisoned in this prison because my brother Roland murdered the king! Damn it, Roland is no longer our family or anything since he pledged to the Order! Cathy will be waiting anxiously for a call from me! Ah, what is happening!”
“I am Helamid, Baron of Palcea! I got my cousin locked up just because he lives in the royal capital! What on earth is this?”
First of all, did they put all the people they didn’t like in jail?
This may be what the world under martial law is like.
As the clamor grew louder, Alter spoke from the next room.
“So, Hyde! Did you bring the Holy Grail from the royal capital? We need the Holy Grail to create an indulgence for Hecate! Hyde! “You left here to receive the Holy Grail in the royal capital!”
Too bad I didn’t have the Holy Grail.
Due to the sudden movement of the queen’s army in the royal capital, they could not even get close to the Holy Grail.
The alter in the next room seemed greatly shocked by my story.
“That can’t be… In that case, Hecate will really die at the execution ceremony that will take place three days later. “Now in Barakhan, heretics and apostates are being executed as an example!”
I could see that the situation was urgent.
Truly chaos itself.
“No matter what other person, I can’t believe I’m putting Hyde in jail.”
What reason is there to imprison an honest and innocent person like me?
I asked a female knight of the Rose Order who was passing by.
“Guard. That Hyde is truly an innocent person without any crime. “Why on earth have you put me in this prison?”
“Hyde? Let’s see where you go─. Your crime is the crime of treachery.”
“Me?”
“Your acquaintance Miss Lucy’s friend is Watson of the Marquis Seraphine family, right? His father, Thorin, is the court wizard of false Queen Ginebit. So you are guilty of treachery.”
So does that mean that just because my friend’s friend’s father is working in a hostile country, I am also a criminal?
What kind of recklessness is this?
Even Germany under Nazi rule would not have handled things this way.
The Roman soldiers who persecuted early Christians and threw them into the lions’ den did not work this way either.
“So you’re saying my crime is because of Miss Watson here?”
“This… Yingying…”
Watson trembled. I guess she was afraid that we would be trapped and what would happen to us because of her presence.
Lucy hugs Watson in her arms.
“Are you okay. Miss Watson. Don’t worry. Hyde will do something. Because Hyde saved me. “It will definitely be able to save us even in the current situation.”
Lucy’s words were very hopeful and indeed correct.
I clearly understood the problem that was happening.
“It appears that the current denomination is strongly applying the crime of association. In that case, I would like to report another criminal. Do you know the ‘Great Sin of Jealousy’?”
“Are you talking about the criminals that the previous Pope personally suppressed? That guy is a wizard from the Onan region. 20 years ago, during the war, the Onan region sided with the Uniger royal family.”
I looked down on her because she was a prison guard, but this female knight in leather armor was more knowledgeable than I thought.
I said this while thinking of the man who was once called “The Great Sin of Jealousy.”
“What would happen if I told him that his children were now in Barakhan? Will a terrible punishment be meted out to him too? Even if he lives independently of his father and is good?”
“Sinful nature flows down from parents to children. If you are the son of a sinner, there is a high probability that he will become the same sinner. If he is the son of Red Fox, the mortal sin of jealousy, he cannot avoid beheading.”
Are you talking about the inheritance of a sinful nature?
From the perspective of original sin, it is true.
I spoke to the people.
“The current King of the Church, His Holiness Kusan, is the son of the red fox who once sparred with Thorin for the royal wizard position! This is a story I heard directly from His Holiness Gregory!”
Kushan.
I was convinced that he would have an accident someday.
Why?
He flirted with Milione, a woman who was very crazy!
If there is anyone who thinks Milione is pretty, they have a crooked perspective.
And a crooked gaze means a crooked mind.
When Rehoboam had an accident, I was also on guard against Cushan.
And since Rehoboam’s origins were ‘special’, I had no doubt that his other adopted son Cushan’s origins would also be special, so I began to investigate, and Gregory was the first to tell me.
━I’m telling you this because I don’t want you to have another accident through Kusan.
Kusan was an orphan from the ‘Onan’ region, which has a culture similar to that of the East. In reality, his father was a monster who carried the deadly sin of “Jealousy.”
“Kusan is the son of the red fox?”
“I was a little suspicious when they wore fancy clothes and carried fans like the eastern humans.”
“Does Kusan himself know?”
No.
Kusan himself probably doesn’t know.
If that were the case, they wouldn’t have applied the crime of association so recklessly.
I decided to say something when the surrounding atmosphere was tense.
“And the woman here is Miss Lucy Emma Gregory, the biological daughter of His Holiness Arud Gregory! The only people who can testify to her dual lineage are Sister Midnar and Bishop Medici Archibald!”
Hwadeuljjak-.
I could feel people being surprised.
The prisoners who were lying helpless in the same prison as me got up and looked at Lucy.
“Resembles. “You look alike with pink hair!”
“Pink hair is special hair. It’s not easy to see.”
“Is she the daughter of His Holiness Gregory?”
A turbulent atmosphere in many ways.
The female knight who was a guard looked around and then ran off somewhere.
# # #
Cheolkeong-.
Finally, the bars opened and Lucy, I, and Miss Watson were released from prison.
We walked through the church hall, followed by knights wearing armor with thorns like roses.
It looked quite eerie as the entire church was destroyed and stained black as if it had been scorched by fire.
Should I say that it clearly shows how confused Barakhan and the Pope were at the time Roland murdered the Pope?
Zek-.
We were guided to the room where the high-ranking priests stayed in Barakhan.
Inside, there was an old man holding a cane, his hair growing white, and he was wearing a wooden mask on half of his face.
His right hand was a prosthetic made of hooks, and his right leg was also made of wood.
The face behind the mask was probably also hideously distorted.
Zek-.
He stood up.
Jalang-.
I lowered my head as I watched the golden cross swinging around his neck.
“Archbishop Hugo. It is an honor to meet one of the three archbishops that Barakhan is proud of. “It was a very wise decision to release us from prison.”
“Hyde. I have heard quite a bit about you from His Holiness Gregory and Archbishop Medici. The current chaos of Barakhan needs talent like you. Kahahaha!”
Although he laughed heartily, Archbishop Hugo’s voice was as horribly cracked as his twisted features.
It was because of the scars from when he was captured and tortured by the witches of Walpurgis when he was young.
“The heretics of the world are running wild with the power of the king on their backs! That shouldn’t happen! Hyde, you know what I mean, right? “Don’t you hate heretics as much as I do!”
Hugo grinning.
“There are no good heretics! Even dead heretics are objects of fear to the common people of the world! Heretics, prisoners and heretics must not even leave their names in the world!”
“I completely agree.”
Medici.
Coram Deo.
Hugo.
Among the three archbishops, it was Hugo who was the most aggressive toward opponents of the church.
His temper was like a bomb on fire, and he was the most hated by heretics among the archbishops, so he died the most violent and terrible death.
He died so horribly that I can’t even explain it in words.
Of course, in my second chance, I’m still alive.
“His Excellency Archbishop Hugo. I also agree with you. But you chose wrong. “The right leader to rid the world of heretics is Miss Lucy, not Cusan.”
“…”
Archbishop Hugo looked at Lucy with blue eyes revealed outside the mask.
“Are you Gregory’s daughter? She had a truly great father—but unlike secular kings, a pope is not hereditary by blood. She can’t become a pope just because her father is a pope. How much less is she not even a priest?”
“But she is a nun who spent her whole life in a convent. In the first place, aren’t we all church and priests who have accepted the Lord in our hearts?”
“It’s Peter’s Epistle 2:9. Peter, who was a disciple of the Savior, said to us that we are all priests, priests, and kings. “We all said it had to be like that.”
“That’s it. Miss Lucy is fully qualified to become the Pope. As the Pope, she will sit down to negotiate with Queen Guinebit and become one by exterminating all heretics.”
Think about it.
It means that the royal family and the religious order become one and work together to hunt down heretics.
“Your Majesty Yugo. According to the church’s regulations, a council can be convened under the authority of two or more gold-plated archbishops. “Please convene a council with Archbishop Medici.”
“Are you saying that you can take on His Holiness Kushan and the Gold Plated Knight Naib alone? Hyde. Don’t underestimate Kusan. There is a ‘reason’ why Gregory adopted him. There is a ‘reason’ for why we made him king, even though he is problematic in many ways.”
Zek-.
Archbishop Hugo sat down.
“Good night! But first, prove yourself! You deserve to sit at the same table as Kusan! To be honest, it’s true that the King’s ‘advisors’, including the gold-plated knight Naib, are causing chaos in Barakhan right now! Naive was the one who imprisoned you! Let’s guide them! I’ll give it a week!”
It was something that was felt during the Medici era, but the gold-plated archbishops seemed to enjoy ‘testing’ people’s qualifications.
I spread my index finger.
“One day is enough.”
Even so, Naib still had a debt to repay.
