Chapter 761 – [Parenting Expedition]

After a decent dinner, we returned to the inn again.

And as soon as she returned to her room, she seemed to feel relieved, and Mary, whose great patience had run out, cried out in a loud voice.

“That son of a bitch!!!!!”

“Yes, yes. Swear as much as you like. I’ll keep the sound from spreading outside the room.”

“Because of that bastard!!!! Because of that bastard!!!!! Because of just that bastard, my family!!!! !”

Bishop Gregory’s purpose was to be a silver witch from the beginning, not Mary’s mother. Rather, she is more like a petty false name.

However, a stone thrown carelessly kills a frog, and because of what he did, her innocent mother is accused of being a witch. She believes that a sin she is not aware of is worse than no guilt.

“Let’s take the baby. Well, we’ll be here for a few days in order to avoid doubt, but I’ll kidnap him and make it terrible as it is.”

“I want to kill that bastard a hundred times a thousand times…!!!!”

“Don’t worry. I’ll make it that way.”

“Is that possible?”

“You can do it”

If it was just a guy like that, he would have ended it with torture, but we shouldn’t kill those who were aiming for Zion so easily.

She must die realizing what she has done wrong, regretting it with pain, despairing long enough to forget who she is.

That’s why the guys who are still in the brain in the Horizon are alive and well. Ah, since a year has passed, they must have passed about 200 years.

For reference, they are tormented by repetition of torture and neglect. When they are tortured, they go crazy and torture them to the point of death, but when they are neglected, they do not allow them to commit suicide in a space where there is nothing, and they are left unattended for decades.

Boredom is poison for a being who lives for a long time. They have to do that for the next 40,000 years, but if you torture them like that, they become effective and efficient torture.

“For the perfect crime, you have to wait for the most important moment”

“When is that time?”

“When we respond to his invitation. By the way, we’ve already marked it so we can kidnap it at any time.”

We are strangers. That’s why, when a big incident happens, someone can point to us as suspects.

Well, even if you point it out, it doesn’t pose a threat, but avoiding useless troubles makes the journey easier. So, for the perfect crime, you have to kidnap him at the timing when he invites you to covet Zion and bring him on his own.

After that, even if they suspect us, they can easily get out of the line of suspicion because they have enough alibi and proved friendly at the point of invitation.

Kidnap? That’s it.

Anyway, with that planned, we waited patiently. And about two days later, a priest who seemed to be his errand boy came to the inn.

“Bishop Gregory invited you two. This is the invitation”

“Hmm”

A gilded invitation. I wondered if those two days were spent making this, but anyway, the time has come.

“I’ll get ready and go. Ah, the carriage to go to the church…”

“Of course, we will prepare it for you. Don’t worry.”

“Okay”

It seems that they are preparing a carriage over there, in case they run away, but in the end, it only adds to our alibi. If the coachman is also from the church, the testimony will be strengthened.

Before long, we rode the carriage to the church. It’s far, but it takes about 10 minutes to get there.

“Are you going to start now?”

“It’ll be over soon”

I had already figured out that Bishop Gregory was doing business alone in his room. The reason I marked him was to figure out his trend and not make witnesses, so it was a natural procedure.

Then, tearing the dimension apart, grabbing him by the back and dragging him along.

Because the wagon continues to move, the coordinates themselves continue to move, but there are times when they stop for a moment to cross the road. If you aim for that time, it’s over.

“No?!”

“Cut your mouth first”

I sighed and covered his mouth. After that, he catches the horse blood and restrains it, and throws it into a corner of the carriage.

It may sound a bit, but the coachman can’t look this way. No, because of the viewing angle, I couldn’t see Bishop Gregory there.

“……Real demons are amazing. How could they be like this?”

“Well, even normal demons can’t do this.”

“It’s possible because it’s the great demon king, the king of demons.”

“It’s not wrong”

There was some truth in Mary’s words, since it was only possible for a transcendental class at the level of the Great Demon King to freely rip through dimensions like this.

Anyway, Bishop Gregory, who was suddenly brought to a strange place, opened his eyes when he saw us. I can’t even move a single tongue because I’m sick of blood, so I can’t do anything.

I changed the hair color back to black to add to the horror. Then his pupils begin to tremble mercilessly.

Likewise, when Shion took off his hood and returned to silver hair, he almost fainted. I laugh evilly, increasing his fear and despair.

“Did you say you were going to catch my contractor, you insignificant human?”

“…………!!!!!”

“A rotten cleric, if you try to touch my contractor, you will pay the price. In hell you will suffer until your soul wears out.”

And I tore through the dimension again and tossed my body into the Horizon.

Now, I’m going to start dismantling it on its own. After discarding the rest of the body except for the central nervous system, including the brain, it is coated with spirit particles to prevent the soul from escaping, and then puts it into a vat and connects it to the brain world.

“Torture later, let’s go and make an alibi”

“Then, are you roughly done with your work here?”

“For now, he was the culprit, but… Well, that depends on the judgment of the contractor.”

The reason Mary’s family died was because of the witch hunt, and it was Bishop Gregory who ordered it, so her contract with her was no different than the end as long as she took revenge on her bastard.

However, I didn’t draw a line on the contract separately. Even if it was limited to the target of revenge, if Mary thought of the whole church as the target of revenge, she had a thought of responding to it.

“……I’ll think about it for now.”

“Anyway, all the rotten bastards die, do you need to think about it?”

“How do I know if it’s the devil instigating me?”

“Ah”

Well, even if she doesn’t think of Shion as a silver witch, at least she thinks of me as a witch and thinks of me as a devil. Normally, it would be hard to believe what the devil says.

So far, even if you are prepared to sell your soul for revenge, if there is a possibility of being free after work, it is natural that you will not cross the dangerous path.

He’s good at risk calculations.

“But I’ll think about what the devil said. After all, because the Holy Church is like that, the witch hunt took place and her mother and brothers died.”

“If you’re thinking of destroying the Holy Church, I’ll be happy to help… Hm?”

Then, something caught my eye. I stop talking and stick my head out of the carriage to look around.

Zion asks why he felt strange in my attitude.

“What’s wrong?”

“Up there”

“Another bird is watching. It’s not an eagle, but it’s kind of like that.”

“That side is more like surveillance than having a dark heart.”

I looked up at the sky and saw a small bird following the carriage. It’s just a bird, but like the eagle of Zeus before, I felt someone watching this side through the eyes of that bird.

It looks like he was caught…….. I don’t think that’s a greeting from the church. The kind of power felt over there is different.

“I think you’d better go and make an alibi and rob the other side as well.”

“……I heard that bewitching animals is a witch’s specialty. Why are you like a cat?”

“Is it familiar? Well, if you don’t have a drone or something, that’s not a bad choice either.”

Soon we arrived at the church.

The church was silent as if they hadn’t yet figured out that Bishop Gregory was gone. But soon a big commotion will break out.

It must be a lot of fun pretending to be a criminal but not pretending to be a criminal!!!!

*        *    *

We were guided to the reception room first. As I waited while serving some tea that I could taste, I sent a message to Bishop Gregory.

And maybe 10 minutes had passed… The priest returned to the condensation room again and handed us an apology.

“I’m sorry, sir. It seems that the bishop is currently absent. I’m looking for you now, so please wait a little longer.”

“Yes, I’m here to meet the bishop, and of course I should. Aren’t you very busy?”

“Thank you for your understanding”

Soon, more time passed. We order a little more tea and snacks and spend a meaningless time chatting. Waiting for a bishop without Ollie was honestly a waste of time.

And as if we couldn’t wait, we got up from our seats.

“No!!! How is there a way for you to invite yourself and then leave the seat empty like this!!!!”

“I’m sorry. He disappeared without a message, so we’re currently looking for the bishop. Please calm down your anger.”

“It’s okay. I can’t remember the invitation I gave you and I can’t keep the promised time, so I don’t intend to stay anymore. We’ll go back.”

“Yes, I will prepare a carriage for you to return to.”

Coming out of the church, I noticed that priests and nuns around were busy looking for Bishop Gregory.

But they won’t find it Literally in a different dimension, how do you find someone like that? Unless they get information from us, they can’t even find transcendental ones.

Well, the owner of the little bird familiar who was watching over us seems to have noticed that we kidnapped him… But that’s probably because he’s been watching over Bishop Gregory from the beginning. Or left something else to be found.

We took our temper with the priests and returned to the inn again. Order a separate dish, eat a full dinner, and pass the time.

“Ah, I’ve been contacted saying that the brain processing in the vat has been completed.”

“Really? Then you just need a separate connector. It’s a little bit difficult to send him there, and you can torture him as long as you have a connector.”

“What are you talking about?”

Instead of answering Mary’s question, Shion and I received a connector from Horizon. A head-mounted connector. It was a device that made it possible to torture him in the cyber world by connecting to Horizon’s server through a dimensional repeater.

“Now, if you put this on and press this button, you’ll be able to meet him.”

“What is this tool for?”

“Um… I think it’s a device that sends your soul to Hell.”

“What?! Isn’t that dangerous?!”

“It’s dangerous to die and go. If you use this and go, you’ll go as a guest. There he won’t die and will obey everything you say, so torture him as you please.”

“Um……”

For once, Mary put her connector on her head while doubting. And as soon as I press her button, she loses consciousness and collapses.

I put her on her bed and this time I opened her window to work on her side.

Good food!

I hear the sound of birds flapping their wings. However, that was not the sound of trying to fly away, but the sound of struggling to be caught by me.

The bird dragged by telekinesis was a small and common bird. If you hit it in Korea, it’s about a pigeon or a sparrow. It’s not for ornamental use, and it’s small enough to eat it for food, so it was such a bird that anyone would pass by.

“Hey, are you watching? Oh, speak well. Or I might twist your neck with this and give you a pretty big shock.”

“……How did you know?”

Considering camouflage, stealth, etc., The familiar is better than a fairly small drone, but if there is one drawback beyond that, it is that if the familiar dies, the main body will also be hit hard.

It’s because they’re connected psychically, but it’s a matter of the soul, so it’s better to just die. If there is a problem with the soul, it will affect the body in the next life, and there is a high probability of having a disability independent of genes.

Anyway, the little bird’s voice came out fluently, even though it wasn’t even a parrot. Seeing how he handles familiars at this level, it seems that the opponent is also a person with a few strands.

“I felt the gaze. A simple bird cannot see enough to feel the gaze of a person.”

“However, in the end, it’s a bird’s eye. You’re not an ordinary human when you feel that kind of gaze.”

“How about this?”

As I changed my hair back to black, the bird in my grasp wriggled. A fairly large agitation is transmitted this way.

“Devil…….?”

“What do you think?”

“The devil the church says existed? What the hell are you…”

“It’s not just a devil, it’s the church’s devil. That means you know what the devil means here.”

The devil spoken of in the church is a being who makes a pact with witches and gives them power.

However, if the existence of the devil was clearly identified and denied, it was only natural that the other party was a witch. Well, I was half sure at the time I sent the familiar, but now I’m whole.

“There’s a lot to talk about, but let’s talk while looking at each other’s faces. It’s probably the same as being rejected by the church anyway.”

“……….Okay, I’ll visit you myself sometime tomorrow. Please free my people instead.”

“If you try to run away just because the hostage has been released, I won’t talk so nicely next time. You don’t think that there’s no way to track anything down either, do you?”

To be honest, I already knew where my opponent was through that spiritual link when I got the familiar.

It’s just to see if the other person is going to deceive me or if he’s a trustworthy guy. If you do it, even the main body will die.

“I’ll try to trust you too. I don’t know what your intentions are, but you’re the one protecting my nephew.”

“…… Huh? What?”

No, wait. Of these, only Mary could be called a niece?

Could it be that Mary’s mother was a real witch?
