Chapter 202 – A Precious Person in a Humble Place -1-

Three Knights of the Empire, Jurgena di Venta.

His daily life is spent in a training room where no one can watch except for special days.

The management and practice of the territory that eats up time interferes with focusing on the sword.

There was no time to deal with papers or meet customers and chat with Yurgena, who felt that the day was short and time was not enough.

So, several years ago, he entrusted the management of the estate to his eldest son.

He only feels it when he gets older. An estate, a woman, a child, a jewel, and a cumbersome thing.

A position where he can prove everything with one sword and the name of the 3 knights himself.

‘It should be more free.’

He feels the need to be freer than now in body, mind and soul.

It’s because I’ve been feeling that my thoughts and perspectives are narrow lately.

Contemplating the sword, he thought only of it all day long to see how he could rise higher.

If you can only become stronger here, it is the same as having no parents, children, wealth, or power.

That’s why he joined hands with Nema Natas to help grow both physically and mentally.

Having become one of the group’s senior officers, he does not regret the decision to this day.

Even if the black magician’s connection is discovered, there are many children who will commit the crime and jump into the fire in their place.

If it’s not enough, you can make more.

He has a strong thirst for power.

“After.”

He sat in the dark without a single light, lost in thought.

It’s a meditation that’s nothing special, but you can’t even see blood in Yulgena’s training.

After one of her offspring, who couldn’t even remember her face or what number of concubines she belonged to, opened the door to the training room without permission, and her head was blown off.

During his training, no one approached him recklessly.

‘… It’s blocked.’

What can I do here to become stronger?

She senses that just continuing to move until her muscles scream is the limit.

Even if Nema Natas provides the elixir, it is already a body that cannot see the effect of the elixir, so the growth of the sword method, not the body, is desperate.

I have a lot of thoughts, so I’ve been spending time only in meditation lately, and I’ve never drawn my sword.

“It won’t work today.”

I mumbled out of frustration.

What else should I do today to find clues to growth?

I was worried that experiencing something new would give me an answer because the things I had been doing were not the answer.

As I left the remote training room and returned to her mansion, the chamberlain cautiously approached me.

“The head of the family. This letter has arrived…”

“Hmm?”

A yellowed envelope.

Normally, it would not have even been brought into the family mansion.

It is said that a crow, not a postman, bit and left it by the window.

Along with that, the thick envelope and the uniquely patterned sealing wax and glittering stamps made the chief chamberlain’s judgment clouded.

A letter addressed to the 3 knights, but without the name of the sender.

Jjiik-

Knowing the group these stamps and sealing wax meant, I sent the chief chamberlain back and tore open her envelope.

…
…

The letter did not come only to Eugena.

Nema Natas also held a meeting because of that, but since the other party was the other party, a definite answer could not be found.

There was a lot of doubt about what those crazy things were looking for who they represented, but I wasn’t sure.

‘It’s been a while since I came out of the territory.’

Walk towards the village nestled in the Mist Nest.

The place we arrived at was a village, so the shape of the house was quite good, but there was only a gloomy atmosphere and there was no sign of people.

The one and only presence that exists.

Upon reaching it, the door of the shabby cabin opened to welcome him.

Kiik-

“Sit down.”

Naturally, from the moment I met her opponent, I sharpened her senses.

‘Morgan Blackwood…’

This was her second meeting.

An old man with a friendly smile.

Because I already know that that smile is a human without an answer, stained with madness without any impurity.

Naturally, I sat across from Morgan with her sword at my waist.

According to the contents of the letter, Morgan currently has the right to represent Mendes Pentagram.

Following that, she talked it out, and after she got acquainted with Morgan, she got the right to represent Nemanatas herself.

From now on, every single word represents the group to which it belongs.

“I need some answers on this.”

An ominous object spinning in Morgan’s hand.

She’s not a warlock herself, but she knows what’s going on inside, so she knows what it’s like.

‘…How did you get that?’

A closed group that is stuck in a corner and doing devil worship is something that can never be obtained.

There are days in my life, so I kept my expressionless even in the current situation.

As usual, her head was complicated by the situation at hand.

“Raise your right hand.”

Morgan, who saw me for a while keeping her silence, gave an order in a soft voice.

Looking at the red magic circle and the goat’s head in the center, Eugene replied while keeping her expressionless.

“I will not respond.”

“I didn’t even ask the question… Are you coolly acknowledging this without making excuses?”

I did not avoid Morgan’s murderous gaze.

“Because I, representing Nema Natas, don’t have to listen to what Mendes Pentagram tells me to do. We are not below you.”

Morgan laughed calmly at Eugena’s defiance without bursting into anger.

“Kuh-kuh… Just because you’ve had children and grown a little beard, your tongue, tired of worldliness and power, moves like a snake.”

“Can you belittle me? This is an act that cannot be laughed off.”

Morgan’s eyes and mouth went up and drew a terrifying figure.

“Even when Nema Natas coveted the Brights, we passed on quietly.”

“…”

In the center of her unholy mana and madness, I casually took a calm stance with her arms crossed.

“I expected the purpose, but since he didn’t show any action, he didn’t move. Little boy.”

Coo goo goo-

Her cabin screamed and shook as the ominous mana began to stir.

Eugenely I put her hand on her sword at her waist and kept her tension on her leg.

Thud!

A hideous offering box appeared next to Morgan.

His ship was in such a shape that the humans of the church would roll over his eyes and pass out when they saw him.

A sacrificial box hanging upside down with an angel weeping and weeping blood pierced by his sword and spear.

Yurgena’s hand, which held her sword, became stronger.

“Put the offering box in now. Are you trying to fight Nema Natas?”

“If you’re going to say that, you shouldn’t have made this in the first place.”

Knock-!!

“This is a declaration of war. This is the way forward for our Mendes Pentagram.”

The synthetic demon’s flesh crumbled and scattered from Morgan’s hand.

“You’re crazy…”

Yulgena’s face distorted when she saw the powder being blown away.

At the word ‘crazy’, Morgan was happy to be acknowledged for his faith.

“Our intermediary will not sit idly by this matter. Call your heads.”

Intermediary.

It meant the actual head of the Mendes Pentagram who served as a window to the devil.

*****

Today, on a rare occasion, work is over when the sun is up.

Returning to her church with Magella, Atra went into her private room and tried to rest a little, but met her welcome face.

“Saint!”

“Shuel! Is it okay if I don’t rest more?”

The nun, who had not yet lost her breasts, proved herself healthy by twirling her shoulders in an inappropriate way for her age.

“I’m really fine now! If I rest, everyone will have a lot of work…”

“But can’t you overdo it?”

You’ve grown a lot mentally with just one job.

Atra was delighted with her, but she felt an indescribable bitterness.

“Holy Lady, when are you leaving this time?”

“Well, I don’t have any plans yet.”

After hearing Atra’s words, Shuel’s eyes shone with joy.

“I wish I could stay longer…!”

There are still parts

A time when she craved affection and attention, she walked through the church holding hands with Shuel.

From the interrogation of the Free Miller Family Head to the interrogation of the aristocrats who are openly known to be close.

The cult continued its investigation with the mission to exterminate the unclean and the power of the imperial family.

It’s not that there’s a shortage of manpower, but proving innocence isn’t something that can be done in a short time.

Atra is stranded in her capital city, unable to embark on her usual pilgrimage and evangelism journey.

“I’m worried that my letter reached you well… I want to say thank you properly…”

How much platinum.

She knows a little bit about how great she is from the point of view of Shuel, who has lived a short adventurer life.

She was unsure whether she would arrive well no matter how much she went through the church.

“Umm~ Shall we go to the adventurer’s guild and ask?”

“Really?!”

Marzella, who had been silent behind the two of them without interfering in their conversation, opened her mouth.

“Suel. The saintess should take a break from now on.”

“I’m sorry…”

Shuel shrank at the words of Magella, who stood behind Atra, but the saintess persuaded Magella with a smile saying that it was okay.

“Don’t worry. It’s not far, so I’ll be back soon.”

I couldn’t allow it because it was a situation that couldn’t be left unattended from the point of view of escort and assistant.

“No. You didn’t sleep well last night, so you should.”

In terms of her physical strength, the physical condition of the saintess, who is weaker than the general public, is reaching its limit.

She and most of the Paladins and Priests could endure it with only a heavy feeling that her head wouldn’t turn even if she didn’t sleep for a day or two if she used her holy power.

The saintess must sleep.

With such a body, he was forcibly following the church’s schedule, so his stamina was rapidly declining and he was currently suffering from lack of sleep.

“The probability that there will be an adventurer who is a platinum level is absurdly low.

“…”

If this was a valid reason, would Magella have gone beyond a little?

Magella’s hard expression, showing no room for permission.

The saintess thought about it with Shuel before saying another word.

“I’ll be right back without falling into the side. Can’t Majella go with me?”

“Majella-sama…! Please!”

The desperate gaze of two women looking up.

Magella tightly closed her eyes to avoid the glare.

‘As soon as I get there, the time is…’

Simplifying her calculations in her head, Magella let out a deep sigh and shook her head.

“Haa… I’m just checking to see if the letter has arrived.”

“”Yeah~””

Atra and Shuel did it, gave her a high five and giggled.
