41 – The One (3)

“The Great One. Where are you heading?”

About three hours passed after Simon and Iaco decided to follow me.

When I said that I would take care of all the food and bedding, they followed me.

“Don’t call me that from now on.”

“…… Yes?”

“From now on, I will look for those who will follow me with you. And if you call me out in front of them, they’ll think it’s strange. So from now on, call me teacher. Do you understand?”

“… Ah! Sorry! I didn’t think of that! I understand, sir.”

I never pretended to be a dragon in the first place. How did this happen

Well, this is an alter ego.

It would be okay to go on an adventure with that concept.

The goal is a journey to gather strength and allies to fight against ‘chaos’. Good.

“Teacher. Then where are you heading now?”

“The destination is the territory of Capernaum.”

“…… Yes? Go, go Beonaum? Ha, but there!”

“It is a territory belonging to the Nova Empire. We know that you and Iaco are reluctant to enter the Nova Empire. But don’t be afraid As long as you are with me, you will all be safe.”

“…… I believe you, sir. I couldn’t believe it.”

I’m sorry for Simon and Iaco, but most of the colleagues I’ll be gathering in the future are in the Nova Empire.

I made them go back to a nightmare place.

But as long as you follow me, I will protect you no matter what.

Dominic Nova, the tyrannical emperor of the Nova Empire.

The enemy of Lydia and Io, and the one who caused many Nova Empire characters to suffer, including Simon and Iaco.

I plan to take care of it someday.

I’m still lacking in power, but someday I’ll normalize the Nova Empire.

But for now, I gather my colleagues first.

The main body is from the academy. The alter ego is from the Nova Empire.

Actually, originally, I wasn’t planning on going to the Nova Empire.

I was thinking of finding out who dared to touch our Dia and then running straight to the alter ego and killing it.

He was abandoned by Lydia.

The person Dia talked about….

I could never have imagined that the sponsor who gave Dia ‘Huffness’ was Lydia.

Dia calls her ‘him’ I thought, of course, that the man with the hairy legs applied to Dia like a tall man, thinking about what to do…….

Lydia replied to me that she said that various supports are given to commoner children who are religious and capable at the church level.

From noble mtl dot com

It has only been 10 years since the church was born, but thanks to Lydia’s outstanding abilities, it has become the majority religion of the Calandra Empire.

Christos Church spread throughout the country, and many children of commoners grew up receiving the help of the church.

Other religions that existed on the continent did not relieve the poor or give anything.

In terms of the earth I lived in, it should be said that it played a role similar to that of Greek or Roman temples before the advent of Christianity.

Whereas an oracle was provided, here prophecies and healing through divine power were provided.

Anyway, unlike existing religions, Christos churches gave food and treatment to the weak. At no cost.

All the church members wanted was faith in Deus.

It was only possible because Lydia had the wealth she had acquired from the main nobles of the empire through ‘gifts’.

Anyway, many commoners came to believe in Deus, and it is said that Dia also came to believe in Deus.

Dia’s mother, who had been seriously ill but was waiting for the day to die because she had no money, was able to stand up through the church’s treatment, and Dia became a faithful believer in Deus.

He was so strong that he aimed for the academy in [Deus Ex Machina], But here he says he wanted to enter the church and become a paladin under the influence of the Deus faith.

So, Dia volunteered to become a paladin and was trained as a paladin, but he received a lot of attention from the people around him because he had excellent military power, and the news reached Lydia.

In the first place, her faith is deep and her ability is given to the children of the church level, but Dia has a very outstanding faith and her arms are already at a high level, so Lydia decided to support her under her direct control. Decided.

Dia doesn’t even know who Lydia is because she contacted her through her anonymous sponsorship, but she grew up with her support, passed her academy’s first exam and qualified for the second, final exam. .

It is said that Lydia, who was deeply impressed with her ability and her faith, sent her ‘Huffness’.

With Lydia’s support, church education, and the powerful artifact ‘Huffness’ suitable for Dia, Dia gained strength incomparable to Dia in the early stages of [Deus Ex Machina] And eventually entered the academy as the chief (commoner). Is said to have succeeded in

It’s really absurd.

I never thought that Lydia would be giving her support to Dia.

Well, it’s fortunate that some strange man didn’t try to snatch Dia. …… Huh? Does that mean I’m jealous of Lydia?

But according to Lydia, she said Dia’s faith is sincere, so ‘that person’ could be Lydia or Deus.

Either way, it’s funny.

The next day.

As she was walking through the orientation of her new class and chatting with Sunny, she bumped into Dia Lang Amy.

“Luke? Hey Dia, don’t you have something to say to Luke?”

Amy tapped Dia with her shoulder and pushed her forward.

“Ooh… …. Oh, hello Luke?”

“Hi, Dia. Are you okay with your body? Sorry, I had something urgent to do yesterday and left before you woke up.”

Yesterday, my head was full of thoughts about catching the thief. Even if it wasn’t for that, I’d wait until Dia wakes up in the health room to make a good impression!

“Oh no! You’re not sorry! Oh, thank you. I heard that I passed out during sparring and was taken to the infirmary…. Thanks, Luke. And the body is fine! You’re perfectly fine!”

“Really? Thank god.”

There is no choice but to be fine.

The effect of the artifact I used to neutralize Dia was simply stunning.

There was no major trauma. In the midst of her fall, I supported her so she wouldn’t get hurt.

“Luke was really cool yesterday? Holding Dia down, holding her in the arms of the princess, unilaterally notifying Professor Magnus, and even taking her to the health room! You are a prince in a fairy tale! Well, I even said ‘I can’t wait’ before! aaagh! I’m so envious, Diaya!”

Tuk Tuk Tuk

“Profit! Stop it, Amy!”

Puck

“Keuk.”

Amy patted Dia while making a fuss about her, and Dia slammed her on Amy’s back, blushing.

It’s embarrassing that I lost so quickly in Dalian, but I was supported by that opponent and dragged into her treatment room unsightly…. Come to think of it, it might be very embarrassing in Dia’s situation. Of course, I was distracted by the word ‘that person’ yesterday and couldn’t think of this side.

Uh…… Anyway, Dia seems to have high stats…… Amy Is that okay?

It’s okay since you’re a commoner enough to be in the alpha class, right?

“Luke. Flirt.”

Sunny, who was watching the scene beside her, murmured softly.

Why not? Did I do nothing?

Oriath, the capital of the Nova Empire

Imperial Palace, Great War of the Emperor

A throne prepared for the leader of the lofty empire.

It was the symbol of a wise and thrifty emperor, but after the throne was usurped by his son, the emperor’s throne changed into luxury and pleasure.

A usurper, clad in fancy clothes and accessories, sat leaning against one side of the armrest of the throne.

“Is it the Holy Spirit?”

“Yes! Large groups of people in the slums are said to have received the fire of the Holy Spirit and gained unique powers!”

“Fun. So. Are the poor agreeing with this?”

“Yes! If this swarm grows bigger here, it could cause chaos in the city! How about a quick intervention….”

“Leave it.”

“…… Yes?”

“I told you to navigate.”

“Ah…… Ha, but if you do that, things may get out of control…….”

“It’s okay. After all, I was planning to burn the poor people who ruined the beauty of the city sooner or later.”

“…… Uh… that… ….”

“The damn old man said that the emperor should take care of the poor as well, and he did not drive out the poor and supported them in many ways, but the burden is different. Don’t act soft like that old man. So General?”

“… Yes? Ah yes! Your majesty!”

“Leave the poor no matter what they do. And if a large-scale riot breaks out, annihilate them silently. Got it?”

“Okay, Your Majesty! Everything according to Your Majesty’s will!”

Kikik

Kung

“It is the Holy Spirit…… Heh I look forward to that day.”

In the Great War left alone, Emperor Dominique, the usurper who betrayed humanity, grinned.
