Episode 36. Pagan Hunt. (3)

If you are a normal person, you will go out of your mind after falling into the shadows for a while, but is it because you are a trained military man? My mother and father were in better condition than I thought.

“Do you know what you just did!!”

Especially, my father was correct enough to yell at me like that.

Still, my mother is a little distraught…. That’s great.

“You ruined everything! The future of the count family!! Your brother’s future too!!”

“Stop talking bullsh*t. Isn’t the count’s future ruined by his father who joined hands with a heretic, and his older brother’s future is because he lost to me?”

If you feel unfair, you should have won.

Isn’t it?

“You idiot! That’s why you were abandoned!! It’s like a thunderclap that runs rampant without knowing how scary the world is!”

Certainly, I think it’s a bit correct to say that the world runs rampant without knowing how scary it is.

But that’s not what he said.

“I don’t think you know much, so I’ll tell you just once. Count Kruger is ruined. The Goddess Church will start an investigation tomorrow and say that my father joined hands with the heretics.”

Even if you’re lucky, you won’t escape the death penalty.

“Hyung, I think it will be over. If you go anywhere and mention the Kruger family name, you will be treated as a heretic.”

However, I will not abandon my brother in the empire.

At best, it’s about whispering behind your back.

A person with abilities is such a position.

Still, it won’t be able to achieve as much prosperity as the current count family.

I will have to prove it endlessly.

He knows that he is not a heretic.

“Mother, if you do well, you will be able to save her.”

I can’t guarantee this.

If the father wraps around her mother and testifies that he was just alone, she might live if she’s really lucky.

“Keugh…. This guy….”

My father’s face is stained with despair.

You should be familiar with it.

He describes what he has done and the results of his failure.

To be honest, I knew it would turn out like this.

The fact that the Count’s family will join hands with the heretics, and that it could cause great danger.

That the count’s family would be ruined as a result.

Even though I knew it, I didn’t stop it.

I wasn’t part of the family from the moment they took my nanny from me.

“I am! I just wanted to get revenge on the central guys who put us in this wallpaper!!”

That sounds really stupid.

“Is that revenge the end of the world?”

“Bussing!!”

Well, I thought you didn’t know.

“In your mansion, what would you do if a bunch of ants were making circles?”

“…”

“After cleaning them up, they’ll find their base and make it a mess.”

“They have the ability to talk to foreign media….”

“What would you do if the ant was shouting your father’s name? You should go and listen to what they have to say.”

“And please give me some sugar, I think you can listen to it as long as it asks for a snack.”

“But, I love other ants, so let them love me. What would you do if I said that?”

“If it were me, I would kill all but two ants and then go and talk.”

“Now that ant has no other ant to love but you.”

At my words, my father seemed shocked and he didn’t say anything.

“To foreign media, we are just ants.”

Well, we are not ants.

Rather, it is described as a very delicious meal to foreign media.

The moment the attention of the foreign media is focused on this place, it is to the extent that destruction is scheduled.

“But…. We…. As a descendant of the dragon slayer….”

Are you still out of your mind?

You’re talking nonsense…

“That is a lie too.”

“… What?”

“We are neither descendants of the dragon slayer nor anything else.”

Well, this is a long story.

To put it simply, it is a legend created by political maneuvering.

A legend created to solve political problems in the old days.

This is the secret of the Kruger family that comes out while playing the game.

Even my father and mother didn’t know about it.

“Don’t talk bullsh*t!!!!”

“You don’t have to believe it if you don’t want to believe it.”

I can’t show you the evidence right now.

Unsurprisingly, this fact is revealed in the princess route.

In the depths of the Imperial Palace Library, there is a book with that fact written on it.

My older brother and the princess found it and went through various things.

Later on, the older brother actually becomes a dragon slayer.

“… What are Leon and Arya going to do?”

Aria.

My younger brother.

Actually, I haven’t even seen her face a few times.

“Hyung, well, I’ll take care of it. My brother…. Where did you put them?”

“… Arya is innocent.”

“I know. What would a 4-year-old know now? So, where is Arya?”

“It is in…. Aria please….”

Your father probably knows.

At least I’m the only one left who can take care of Arya.

It’s impossible for an older brother.

Because you won’t be able to abandon Kruger Castle.

Honestly, I don’t know either.

Is it right for me to take care of Arya?

She’s still a little sister, but she’s innocent.

Should I reject him just by the name Kruger?

One day, if I hadn’t grown up like this, would that child have rejected me as well?

Like other families?

Maybe it was.

Still, it is a future that has not yet come.

A future that will never come.

I have no choice but to take care of it, at least for the time being.

“For the time being.”

“…”

The conversation is over.

Just waiting for Johanna to call the Goddess Cult members.

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

“Hmm…. Do you think I’ve lost money?”

“What are you so dissatisfied with?”

“Is it okay if I just end it like that?”

“… My hands only hurt when I hit them.”

Emma has expressed some displeasure with me, but I don’t particularly want to hit people like that.

Even if you leave it alone, the Goddess Church will take care of it for me anyway.

It’s fortunate that my older brother isn’t there.

If that were the case, it would have been complicated for me to find mine again.

I should be back in a few months.

If possible, as soon as the second semester begins.

I’ve used up all of my abilities that I’ve accumulated over the years, and the monsters I’ll be dealing with from the second semester are impossible without abilities.

You can’t just trust the weapons you’ve developed and the people you’ve raised.

You don’t know when or how something will happen like this time, so I need to develop my strength as much as possible.

“All that remains is to go to the Meyer family?”

“Before that, we will have to stop by the imperial palace.”

I’ll have to report on this incident.

A count family colluded with the heathen.

It won’t end easily.

“What. Don’t be too late.”

“It won’t be that late. Almost all of them were credited to the saintess anyway.”

“Hmm….”

I’m just a supporting character who accidentally helped Johanna.

That’s how it was decided.

Because the emperor is also in collusion with the cultists.

That’s also with the pagan pope, who is not an ordinary priest.

It is fortunate that the bishop here was greedy and carried out the work alone.

I would have risked everything I had, but I don’t know how possible for a cardinal, but the Pope is impossible.

It wouldn’t have happened since the cultists were fighting among themselves.

“So, will you follow me?”

“Because that’s an order, lady.”

“… What. All right.”

The Count’s work is over.

So simply, Leon was eliminated as the main character.

In order for him to become the main character, he had to get involved in this and get it equal to the castle.

Now, at best, I am just a ‘competent person’.

It came into my hands.

A day or so later, Johanna, accompanied by numerous priests and paladins, stormed into the Count’s house.

The entire county was searched, his father and mother were arrested and dragged away, and there was an uproar all day long.

The Goddess Church came out to purify the traces of paganism and also investigated the surrounding territories.

Well, I was just grateful that he even did my job for me.

The only thing left now is to report this to the imperial family.

Please, I hope it ends easily.

Even this.

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

The report itself ended quickly.

The report itself….

“Nico Schheiser, then, I, the Imperial Princess Florence Alfonso Alois Fabian Maurice Amadeus De Sean Almagne, confer upon you the title of baron on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor.”

“God, Nico Schheiser, by the command of your Emperor.”

I became a noble.

Knights are treated as quasi-nobles, but now they have become real nobility.

There are only titles, but no domains.

Surprisingly, it is said that the Emperor was greatly moved by me for helping the Goddess Church and crushing the conspiracy of the Kruger family.

After further investigation, he thanked me and even gave me the title of baron.

I don’t know what the emperor’s ulterior motive is.

“Are you frowning at her even at a moment like this?”

“… Sorry.”

“Tsk. Lighten up your face. Didn’t you pay as modestly as you wanted?”

“I appreciate that.”

“Tsk. That’s it.”

Thanks to the princess, I was able to avoid receiving the title directly from the emperor, but with this, rumors will spread that I am the person of the princess.

“The emperor won’t think much of it.”

From noble mtl dot com

“… How does the princess know that?”

“I guess it was her who sealed you as her baron.”

“…How….”

“Tsk. It’s a secret. If you’re curious, ask Elias.”

“…I understand.”

In that case, it’s a bit fortunate.

I don’t want to stand out from the emperor yet.

Until I get a stronger, stronger power.

“By the way, I heard you are going to Mayer’s estate.”

“Yes. We are leaving right away.”

“Hmm. I see.”

No matter how quickly it ended, I have already spent four days in the capital.

If you start right away, you will be able to meet the time just in time.

“Be careful. Duke Mayer is the most suitable person for the term old monster.”

“Okay.”

I’m worried too.

The problem is, there is no answer.
