Episode 33. Persuasion.

My shadow sways.

And there, Emma sticks out her face.

“How did you know?”

“If you help me, I will let you know.”

“Why should I help with that?”

“Because it would be super fun.”

“Hmm….”

To seek her help, you don’t need the justification to save the world or the clichéd saying that it has to be you.

Just fun.

The most important thing for her is whether the job is fun or not.

If it’s not interesting, even if the world perishes, it’s just that. And a woman who will die

“I, who was kicked out of the Kruger family, strike the Kruger family. Isn’t this fun?”

“Yes, but….”

“How about a little secret from Maya?”

“That might be a little appetizing.”

What she’s most worried about is that since she broke Maya’s order, she might be punished for it, but she thinks that if only me and her Emma keep her mouth shut, she won’t even know Maya?

“What is this woman? Only the head sticks out.”

“Now we are colleagues. Saintess.”

“Wait a minute, I’m still doing…” .”

“Are you really not going to do it? Would be so much fun Won’t you tell me what happened later?”

“…You can just do it.”

What. She is not difficult

She’s praying so she’s the easiest woman to capture.

She is always recommended as the number one strategy for newbies.

“E. Is it Nicola Cat?”

“Yes. Saintess.”

“Now loosen this rope. Sell or die.”

“Aren’t you going to run away?”

“Let go first. Gramun….”

“If you don’t run away and say you will help me, I will release you.”

“…”

Also shut her mouth.

Johanna does not lie.

She can’t tell a lie in the first place.

I know what I’m saying is true, but I don’t believe it completely.

Because there’s a chance that I’m crazy.

You should know that the mansion is strange.

However, he must be coming back with more trustworthy people than me.

So, Johanna’s choice is to run away and watch the transition. Will be

I would have left it as it was.

As long as we have the same purpose, we will definitely become allies later.

But now I really don’t have time.

To the point where I have to run right now.

“Johanna. Do you know what will happen if a foreign god descends on this land?”

Then I have no choice but to convince you.

By using the information that only I know.

********************************

“Is this the end of the operation?”

“The simpler the strategy, the better.”

“… Dude, I don’t know if I can really believe this.”

It didn’t take long to convince Johanna.

It didn’t take a particularly long time to plan.

Me and Emma ran to the mansion, broke down the door, and moved on.

Go up to the 3rd floor and ‘rescue’ the Countess and her brother, and deal with the ‘Pagans’ who come out.

I will deal with Bishop, and Johanna will deal with other enemies.

From noble mtl dot com

Her Emma’s ability is specialized in dealing with those weaker than her, so she chose the strategy.

“Ni. Can you really stand against the bishop? That’s not human.”

I know why Johanna is worried.

She is the only person who has ever dealt with a pagan bishop.

She knows that the Bishop is insanely strong, and no one knows better than she does.

“You don’t have to worry.”

“… I’m not worried, it’s wrong because if you die, we all die too.”

What. That’s a lie

If Emma runs away into the shadows, she will stop, and if Yohanna tries to run away, she will not be able to catch her even if the bishop directly steps forward.

Just say you’re worried.

“… Give me a holy relic.”

The relic, one of the key points of this operation.

Originally, she must have had a sacred object, but she doesn’t have it right now, so I have to procure it.

To be exact, I’m going to make it now.

He takes out a pill from his chest and swallows it.

Now I have to focus.

Dark limited release.

(Darkness 限定開放)

Overcome the rush of elation.

I feel Johanna and Emma falling apart nervously at the change in their bodies.

Ah.

The world is so futile.

The pendant that was selected as a sacred item was given to me by a nanny.

If it’s this pendant I’ve been wearing all my life, my aura must be familiar.

Inject darkness into the pendant little by little.

Never be in a hurry.

Slowly…. Slowly….

The blue jewel on the pendant is losing its color.

Little by little…. Gradually….

Soon, the blue jewel embraces the brilliant darkness.

“Kuh….”

As soon as the pendant completely discolors, it seals the darkness.

As expected, I am reminded again that this ability is a dangerous power that should not be used recklessly unless I become perfect.

If it wasn’t urgent, I would never have used it.

“Whoa…. Please confirm it. You should be able to use it two or three times.”

“…”

Johanna didn’t say anything while accepting the pendant.

She just stares at the pendant with her trembling hands.

“Let’s go. Emma.”

“Can I just leave it there?”

“It will work.”

Johanna was only a little shocked.

Holy relics are supposed to be items bestowed by the gods, but humans probably didn’t know that they could make them like this.

In the first place, almost all sacred objects in the world must have been made by humans.

She would have just noticed that.

Still, I’m not particularly worried.

I’m sure he’ll just shake it off and move on.

I’ve already seen it like that many times.

I didn’t actually see it, I just played it.

Because Johanna would always stand up again.

“As planned, when you reach the third floor and see the Count and his wife, just push them into the shadows.”

“I will, but I don’t know if the two of them go crazy, right?”

“You don’t have to worry about that.”

To be honest, it’s true that it doesn’t matter if you’re crazy or not.

“What will your brother do?”

“I have to hide it somehow, or else I will have no choice but to push the child into the shadows.”

“… I’ll get it right away.”

I don’t want to do that to a child if possible, but it’s better than dying.

It is not possible to obtain all of them one by one.

I already know that very well.

Even if it’s my family, saving the world comes first.

“It must be less fun than I thought.”

“Would you like to see me fight with my family?”

“Well, yes. To be honest.”

“You will be able to watch it to your heart’s content when it is finished.”

“Hmm….”

I will do my best even if I want to see it.

Emma is a big fan of the last stage play.

I watch every last play in the capital.

“Nico. Let’s talk about it later.”

“As much as you like.”

You must be wondering how I know that.

But today, work comes first.

You must save the world first.

***************************

The light flows down.

He is finally coming.

“I need more sacrifices.”

“Damn how much more….”

“It doesn’t matter anyway, does it? When He descends, there will be an offering more than enough to compensate for all that.”

As a bishop, rather, these ignorant people could not understand.

If only he descends, the seeds of false light will disappear and the world will be filled with only love.

“…What is lacking?”

“Golden.”

“How much?”

“The more the better.”

“… I’ll bring it to you tomorrow.”

The count disappeared, and the bishop began to pray again.

I feel that he is coming closer.

Three steps left.

He longed for Him endlessly, piled up sacrifices for Him endlessly, and finally came this far.

The moment has come when we can step into the sun, dropping the hateful seeds of light that have persecuted us.

He believed that.

“Our god, ─────── please descend here.”

Cry out the name of God.

All offerings are offered to the gods.

I gradually feel that God is approaching.

Three steps forward.

Outside the recognizable universe, there are only three steps left.

God is coming.

“Dear Bishop.”

“Don’t call me. May God be coming.”

“A relic has appeared.”

“…”

The bishop paused in his prayer.

If it is a sacred object, it can hasten the coming of a god far more than a day’s prayer.

“Where are you?”

“Nearby.”

“Bring it.”

“The holy relic is with the light.”

The bishop’s face frowned.

Surely, it could be dangerous as a normal priest if you are with the light.

“Talk to the Count to borrow soldiers.”

“Okay.”

A count would surely lend a soldier.

If you fail, don’t worry too much.

Even if there is no holy relic, at most one week.

God will descend.

“Take care of yourself.”

I was only worried about the young priest in front of me.

I was only worried that he wouldn’t be able to see the gods descend and drive away the false light.

“Okay.”

However, the young priest could not be stopped.

He is also a priest who worships God.

As a bishop who knew that his faith was higher than anyone else, he could not be stopped.

After the priest left, the bishop again began to pray to God.

May God descend.

May God protect the priest.
