76 – Come to my room at night

Jackel, who was very nervous, tried to smile and answer.

“How do I know that?”

“···I was close with you.”

“We were just business partners. “I even thought Carmel had taken her own life.”

“Take your own life?”

“Yes, the miser-like guy suddenly brought me a bunch of presents and told me to take care of myself. “What can I say, he looked like an old man who was about to clean up his surroundings and go into his grave.”

“···.”

Jackel was embarrassed. She thought that this woman might do something, so she only told the truth, but instead, the woman’s expression suddenly darkened.

“Not long ago, I thought that was really the case.”

So she continued talking without stopping.

As if this was the correct answer, the woman’s complexion began to brighten again.

“Tell me in detail.”

“I thought Carmel had really taken her life. So she didn’t deposit the money she promised. No, but what? She took money from our joint account. “She seems like a toxic bastard.”

“Joint account?”

“Yes. This is an account I had no choice but to create because my friend was so suspicious, but I also forgot about it. Haha···.”

Jackel smiled bitterly and answered. Not surprisingly, the amount that Carmel, who she thought was dead, took out of her joint account was more than twice what she had promised.

‘Next time, I’ll give it to you accurately.’

If I don’t, I’m sure I’ll get robbed even more.

After thinking that, Jaquel looked at the woman who was lost in her thoughts.

Did she say her name was Daphne?

She was definitely a rare beauty. So much so that she dares not find anything to compare it to.

If she had to look for someone, the only one she had seen was a saint and the Viscountess’s daughter, Rose, whom she had seen only once in her life.

“I suddenly had a question…”

“Ask me anything.”

“How much money did Camel take in a month?”

“She took home 400 gold a week. “If you calculate it in one month, she earned more than 1,000 gold.”

“Really? “They said my monthly salary was only 100 gold.”

“···You can’t believe you lied like that to your heavenly teacher. Camel, I guess that guy is really me. Haha!”

“···.”

After Jaquel, who had tried to burst out in laughter, saw the woman’s hardening expression, she immediately scratched the back of her head and lowered her head.

“···Which store is it?”

“We use Armad Trading Company, but why are you asking this?”

“I’m going to go and ask. “Where did you get the money from?”

“Hey, what kind of company taught you that? “If you beat up the owner of the store, you won’t know…”

Jaquel stopped what she was saying and looked at the woman sipping her coffee in front of her.

“Thanks for letting me know.”

For some reason, she had the brightest expression that Jaquel had seen today.

****

Inside a magnificent temple in Magyeong.

A man in black robes and an old man in dark priestly robes were having a conversation.

From Noble mtl dot com

Did her man’s words really appeal to her?

The old man with a face full of age spots was laughing and continuing his words.

“As we live, days like this come. The warrior who was pointing his sword at us came here himself and asked for my help. “Khaha!”

“···.”

“Okay, I will prepare whatever you want. “Mr. Mort is a brother who has walked the same path as us, so it’s okay…”

The old man who was talking cheerfully had to stop what he was saying.

This is because the sword the man had drawn was already touching his uvula.

“Brother? “If you say something like that one more time, I will cut out your tongue.”

“Haha, I understand. Mr. Mort. So, could you please put this sword away? Because I’m so old, I don’t want to sweat in a strict environment. And we don’t just give you what you want. “There are conditions.”

“···Conditions?”

The Archbishop of the Chaos Church, Mandara, wiped the blood trickling down from his uvula and looked at the warrior who was pretending to be noble.

‘It’s soon.’

Mandala didn’t like the way this arrogant hero was acting arrogantly, but he was able to smile happily.

This is because this hero, who had constantly tormented him for decades, was soon to become completely corrupted and move only by the will of Bulginus.

“Anyway, this old man is strange. “With Mort’s level of inaction, he could burn down the empire all by himself.”

“···Just tell me the conditions.”

“I understand. First, you need to sleep for about a month and leave your body to me. I am going to perform a ritual on Mort’s body. “Is that okay?”

“···How can I trust you?”

“Don’t you know? I, of low rank, cannot do any harm to you. To be honest, this ritual is also a big loss to me. “Because it is no different from giving this church’s entire assets.”

“···.”

“So, once the ceremony is over, please do me one favor. “Can you do that?”

The old man raised the corners of his mouth like a cunning snake and asked the fallen warrior, and Mort frowned and answered.

“···Listen and judge.”

“There was a priest I cared about, and I heard he was executed not long ago. “From what I heard, he was defeated and captured by some child.”

“···.”

“Please capture that child alive and bring him to me. “I really need to ask you something.”

After saying that, Mandara smiled happily and handed Mort a portrait of the child who was presumed to have killed his priest.

“···.”

Is there even a friendship?

After receiving the portrait, Mort’s expression crumpled.

“I understand that you are listening. Please follow me.”

After saying that, Mandala was laughing out loud inside.

It was worth it. This hero was so foolish that he didn’t seem to know that the choice he had chosen would lead to his complete corruption.

More than anything.

Mandala was confident. The child this foolish hero will capture is a vessel of the sins he lost a long time ago.

****

Aderit Village, the closest village to Aden Academy, boasts a population and size large enough to be called a city.

Is that why? A large number of people were gathering at the Aderit Temple, where members of the volunteer club ‘Right Love’ were busy.

And the victims of this situation were very clear.

Those were the members of ‘Right Love’ who had once joined the club by mistake and were being treated like slaves.

“I have to leave after just this week. What kind of volunteer work is this? “It’s just hard work.”

“You look like you died from overwork while trying to get some extra points.”

“Wow, I really feel like I’m going to die. “Why are so many people flocking here?”

As I secretly listened to the victims’ complaints, I felt very empathetic.

Because, I too was being exploited by the temple priests.

The only good thing was that I was sitting down and doing chores.

“Ugh, my friends are so dissatisfied these days that it’s a problem. Cadet Carmel, who is actually dealing with people, is working without any complaints, and she doesn’t even know how to thank him.”

An angry voice coming from next to me.

When she turns her head, she sees a nun with a fresh expression.

‘Honestly, isn’t that what you should say when you’re sitting comfortably handing out waiting tickets?’

Those words welled up in my throat, but I had to endure them with great effort.

This is because this freckled nun was a powerful person with absolute authority over personnel matters here.

‘If you say you’ll bring me honey and refuse, then you’re an asshole.’

Thinking like that, I looked pitifully at the members who were being treated like dogs.

I don’t know why they are needed.

Some members are carrying rocks the size of a human body on their backs, while others are seen building a barracks the size of a temple.

I wanted to help out in some way.

I had no choice as I had to save my strength for tomorrow, which was Sunday.

“That’s right. “Nesia is dealing with people at the expense of her neck, but he’s complaining that he’s using up a little effort.”

She has no choice but to show off to Sister Necia, who holds the authority over her personnel, to conserve her strength and pour it into her tomorrow’s battle.

‘I’m sorry, kids. There is nothing we can do for the sake of the world.’

Actually, I wasn’t sorry at all, but I made excuses and turned away from the members.

But that didn’t mean I was just sitting still and sucking honey.

I also had my own difficulties.

“Right? Cadet Carmel is certainly nice to hear from her. “This is also fate, but perhaps tonight…”

“Oh my, look how hoarse your voice is. Just wait. “I’ll bring you some water.”

That was like hitting an iron wall. I don’t know why, but Nesia was showing a very proactive attitude towards me.

‘I’m not ugly.’

As I got up from her seat and headed into the temple, I remembered Nesia’s face.

That’s because she’s full of freckles. To be honest, Nesia’s appearance was pretty, but I didn’t feel like she was a woman.

‘Why is that so?’

The worries did not last long. That’s because, after entering the temple, I discovered one of the reasons and was immediately able to understand it.

“To be able to see the saint in person, I think she will have no regrets even if she dies.”

“You are so pretty, it feels like seeing an angel who came down from heaven.”

“Oh my gosh, don’t even talk. I’m not sick, but I’ve been waiting since dawn to see the saint. But, I think she did a good job. Lol.”

Pedestrians in line are sticking their heads out and looking ahead. My gaze is also directed in that direction.

“Oh my, saint. Thank you so much!”

“Please don’t overexert yourself and take a break for about a week. Emmanuel.”

At the source of the gaze, Lily, with long light purple hair, was treating people in line one by one.

As I was looking at that, I couldn’t help but nod my head.

There is a person with such a pretty appearance nearby, so how could a woman like Necia catch her eye?

In fact, the reason why people were flocking to the temple was also consistent with this. To see the face of the saint, Lily, even just once.

“Oh, Mr. Caramel.”

She was in a daze for a moment, and then Lily, who spotted me, smiled shallowly and greeted me with the shape of her mouth.

“Please come to my room at night.”
