I Became a Fake Priest the Saintess Is Obsessed With

Chapter 103

103 – Selection of Heroes (2)

Treasure Hunt.

It is a very simple game where you just have to find a specific object in a designated place.

However, the place where the treasure is hidden is endless, and even more so, the treasure is not in a fixed location and is constantly moving.

As an analogy, it’s like having to find fleas moving on a sandy beach.

So what I’m trying to say is that the difficulty level of the hero selection test is extremely high.

“How do you find a branch in such a large forest…? “

Once you enter the forest, there is no way to find the treasure.

Of course, there is a way to search the forest…

Asokrak is a forest as large as a continent, so searching the forest blindly is not a good idea.

But there was no other way, so I guessed that the branch would have the same magical power as the World Tree, and used magic to detect the World Tree’s magical power, and searched the forest with Dorothy, but if I continued like this, I would collapse from exhaustion or get bored. I think I’ll either go crazy or do one of the two.

‘If I at least find out exactly what the branches of the World Tree look like, I can try using other magic… ‘

Among tracking magics, there are several magics that allow you to find out the location of an object as long as you know its shape.

It’s not magic used in this world… It’s something I learned in my past life, but I can’t use it unless I know what the branches of the World Tree look like.

In the end, the only way is to wander around blindly…

If the elves aren’t crazy, there must be another way…

“Yes, priest? Look at that… !”

While walking, thinking about how to find the branch, Dorothy, who was leading the way, stopped and pointed at something.

She stuttered her words, as if she was nervous at something in front of her.

“Why are you saying that?” Heh… “

I looked in the direction Dorothy pointed and saw the monster there and quickly shut her mouth.

In the bushes far away, there was something in the shape of a huge lizard.

However, it cannot be called an ordinary lizard, but its strange appearance, with tentacles attached to its body and hundreds of eyes moving flexibly, is far removed from the form of a simple lizard.

As a lizard expert who has raised Silly for ten years and who has observed dragons many times, I can confidently say this.

That is definitely not a lizard.

“What, what is that? He swings his tentacles with eyes very actively… Yuck! “Just looking at it makes me feel like something is rising inside me!”

“It is probably a demonic beast infected with contaminated mana.”

“Uh… “How do you know that?”

“Everything that looked like that was like that.”

After meeting the fusion created by Count Akid and the Shadow Charybdis created by Rekooks, I realized that such disgusting looking things were creatures infected with contaminated mana.

The same goes for that monster.

I’m not sure what’s infected, but the contaminated mana that can be felt from afar supports my thoughts.

‘Why is there something like that near the World Tree that purifies polluted mana…? ‘

First of all, it seems like the monster hasn’t found us, so we have to run away from here.

If you detect the magic power of the World Tree and then run towards it…

Uh… hmm…

Why can the magic power of the World Tree be sensed by that monster?

“Miss Dorothy. “The elf named Sylvia said that a monster ran away with a branch of the World Tree, right?”

“Uh… “I think it was like that?”

“So that means that monster could have branches?”

“Huh?!”

Dorothy was quite surprised by what I said and shouted loudly.

Thanks to this, the bizarre tentacle monster became interested in this area.

I hurriedly covered Dorothy’s mouth and hid among the bushes.

The monster sensed its presence and began to squirm, or rather, squirm?

Anyway, it came nearby, wriggling its tentacles.

“……”

I swallowed my saliva and hid my presence.

The monster wandered around us for a while, but luckily it fell without finding us.

After confirming that the monster was far away, I took a deep breath and let go of Dorothy who was covering her mouth.

“Ha… Are you okay, Miss Dorothy?”

“N-nenenene!”

“?. Are you okay? My cheeks are really red… “

“Gwae, it’s okay! “I was definitely not surprised when the priest suddenly hugged me!!!”

… What?

It was an emergency situation, so it happened to be like that… I never thought I would misunderstand this like this…

Well, she seems to understand that I hugged her because she was in an emergency, so let’s not explain it because it’s annoying.

“Ah, anyway, what does that mean? That monster is biting a branch… “

“The world tree’s magic can be sensed near that monster. “I thought about it, and it looks like that monster stole the branch.”

“I see… But what is the identity of that magical beast? Such a bizarre demon appears in Asokrak, a place famous for not having demons appear… “

“Uh… I’m fine too… “

[Tsar]

“Tea… le? “You say?”

As I stared at the monster wandering in the distance, the system popped out and told me the name of the monster.

But the tsar is a monster I’ve never heard of before… ?

[Char: A demonic beast born after being infected by contaminated mana from the divine beast that protected the World Tree. In the past, it was a fairy with thousands of wings, but it became infected with contaminated mana and its wings became bizarre tentacles.]

Nice System.

I was curious about the Tsar again, so the system kindly explained it to me.

“Tsar? “What kind of magical beast does that do?”

“I don’t know exactly, but judging from the magic power and fighting spirit, it definitely seems like a strong magical beast.”

“Is that so? Because Sylvia said she had to kill a monster to get her eggplant… “

“Yes. “I have to kill that thing.”

“Umm… okay… “

Dorothy looked visibly dispirited, as if she were frightened.

Why did the person who ran into the living flame with his bare body act like that?

I sensed a strange contradiction in her.

Has there been any change of heart? So she looked at Dorothy and realized that she didn’t have the ax she usually carried.

Dorothy’s ax is in my bag.

Before she entered the forest, she was asked by Dorothy to keep her axe.

Are you psychologically unstable because you don’t have a weapon?

Thinking it was no big deal, I took the ax out of my bag and handed it to Dorothy.

“Take this, Miss Dorothy.”

“Ah! “My axe!”

When Dorothy received the axe, her vitality came back.

And then a surprising change came to Dorothy.

“Then let’s go! “I will tear apart the limbs of that demonic beast called Tsar!”

It is said that he suddenly tried to rush to the tsar.

“Wait! “I need to hear a plan to catch that thing!”

I grabbed Dorothy’s ankles with my whole body and stopped her as she tried to run away.

“Plan?”

“Yes. It’s just something made hastily… “Wouldn’t it be much better than rushing in blindly?”

“What is that plan?”

“That’s… “

I calmly explained the plan to Dorothy.

When Dorothy heard the plan, she tilted her head as if she didn’t trust me.

“Could that be the case…? ? It would be better to attack head on… “

“Don’t worry, I am well aware of the weaknesses of the demon beasts infected with contaminated mana. “I’m sure this method will work.”

”I understand! Let’s trust the priest!”

Dorothy, holding a small hatchet high in the sky, looks ready to pounce on the witch at any moment.

Has another personality been implanted in the axe?

Why did your personality change 180 degrees just by grabbing an axe?

‘Isn’t it better than being scared and not being able to do anything? ‘For now, let’s not worry about it and focus on the tsar’

I decided to put aside all the miscellaneous thoughts and focus only on subjugating the Tsar.

The Tsar is now turned around, unaware of our existence.

If you want to make a surprise attack, now would be your chance.

“Miss Dorothy, when I give you the signal, you run right in.”

“Yes!”

“Just wait… Just take out a few things… “

I picked up the items needed for the operation from my bag and aimed for the optimal timing for a raid.

-Rustly…

At that moment, we heard a rustling sound in the bushes, as if there was a wild animal in the direction opposite to us, and the Tsar’s attention was drawn to that place.

“Now!”

Dorothy received the signal and rushed out as quickly as a cannonball.

Dorothy’s acceleration is faster than expected.

If that’s the case, I’ll make a trick in advance…

“?”

Dorothy lost momentum when an unidentified object suddenly appeared.

“hahahaha! “I finally found my prey!”

The man who appeared with flowing blue hair was a man famous for hunting in the cold.

This is Letin Kal Crushid, the Prince of the North, who, like us, is a candidate to become a hero.

Retin is ready to pierce the Tsar’s torso with the huge spear he has at any moment.

-!!!

However, the Tsar immediately reacted to Letin’s movements, perhaps as a tycoon.
