I’m Going to Destroy this Country

Chapter 41.1



 

Around the main hall of Eshua.

The central headquarters of the Blue Faith was bustling with people for some reason.

“Did he really come?”

“Wow, I’ve never seen it with my own eyes.”

“Did he really give the Holy Spirit to young master Isaac?”

“Yeah! It’s chaos right now!”

They were Eshua’s disciples, who flocked to the news of the return of the head of the family.

In simple terms, they could be considered elites who had gone through a difficult recruitment process and became direct subordinates of Eshua.

From the 3rd rank novices called to the 1st rank mainstays called , they were all there.

They would later become Eshua’s sword, taking on missions of Blue or being dispatched to other countries or regions to cultivate the Blue faith.

Above all, they were the ones who regarded Eshua, whom they served, as their idol.

But the head of the family’s return?

A successor battle?

And especially when the other party is an infant who hasn’t even been noticed in the family?

In short, it was a significant matter where their leader could change… No, would training be possible in such a hilarious situation!

Not only novices but also 1st rank knights were gathered pretending not to be interested.

“Lord Goel, you really got into trouble? I mean, it’s not a lie.”

The events in the mansion seemed to have already spread.

The knights giggled.

“In the first place, Lord Goel was too much. Even if you say so, thinking of kicking out Eshua’s pureblood lineage, really.”

“What about the annex? He was trying to send him to the place where the Skeleton King appeared, of all places.”

“The second wife’s children are really fierce. Even if they’re half-brothers, isn’t he still his nephew? Didn’t he suggest killing young master Isaac?”

When the 2nd rank knights raised their voices, the 1st rank knights gave them a signal to be quiet.

“Enough of that. Lord Goel has half the noble blood of the precious Pope’s family, how much would he be upset? Even if he wasn’t born from Eshua, he would have received a position from the Papacy.”

“Oh, still, Eshua is a million times better than the Pope’s family!”

“Really? In terms of hierarchy, pushed back by the eldest son and surpassed by the talented youngest Lilai. At least he’s good at managing the family, that’s why they tolerate him.”

“That’s right. So, he’s trying to make young master Shuri the head of the family and take charge of the family. Well, I understand. Suddenly, in the midst of drawing a blueprint, a talented young master Isaac appeared, who has both lineage and ability… What a headache.”

The faces of the knights who were talking turned pale.

From the door connected to the wall, Goel was glaring at them.

“To the knights of Eshua with high pride, I didn’t know there was a habit of enjoying gossip.”

“N-no, it’s not that… Those guys! Ah, they ran away!”

The 1st rank knights disappeared as if they were never there.  There was no trace of them, as if they were high-ranking paladins for a reason.

In the end, the 2nd rank knights who were kicked out by Goel lowered their heads, and Goel turned around, grinding his teeth.

‘Damn eldest son’s son…!’

Now, because of Isaac, do I have to climb into the mouths of commoners?

But it was okay.

Goel remembered what happened in the mansion with the fierce eyes resembling the Pope.

Goel, who had been so cruelly broken by the head of the family, had no choice but to become mute, and the elders from the council looked at the head of the house as if they couldn’t understand it.

This was because, unlike the elders, most of the council members supported the lineage of the second wife, who is the bloodline of the Pope’s family.

Master had said a word to those people.

-I think you’re misunderstanding something. I said I would give the Holy Spirit, but I didn’t say I would just give it.

-Yes?

-I originally said I would give the Holy Spirit for a reason.

For a reason?

Because he was beautiful as the son of the eldest son?

-If you put the Skeleton King’s body in fire or water to remove it, a defect will appear in the child.

-D-Defect?!

-Because the flame and water in the Blue Temple are too powerful and reject all approaching demons. There is a problem with high-ranking priests who have to use exorcism techniques. Lilai, you probably know what I mean.

-It must be difficult to learn exorcism, which is a prerequisite for becoming a high-ranking priest.

-Yeah. After mastering, it’s right to put him in. Originally, I suggested it because it seemed like that child wouldn’t go above the 5th rank.

-S-so… Isaac has talent, but he has to be satisfied with the 4th rank for his whole life.

-So, I will let him choose one of the three. Fire, Water, Holy Spirit. If he chooses the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit will purify the Skeleton King’s magic. If he chooses fire or water, that’s his fate.

That’s right! As expected of father!

He might not have affection for his children, but as the head of the family, he really couldn’t disappoint.

It’s not bad if it’s the 4th rank, but if you’re from the five greatest families, you can’t practically be treated as a person!

Thinking of what happened in the mansion, Goel laughed.

‘Do you think a child can choose the Holy Spirit?’

The aura of the Holy Spirit is very faint for a child to feel. It required a long training to detect that aura.

And now, with everyone gathered in the Blue Temple.

“Pick one.”

The head of the family placed three balls in front of Isaac.

Isaac watched those causing a commotion a bit away.

“Isaac! Do you understand your uncle’s words? It’s the white one! If you choose that, your uncle will buy you a Skeleton King stress doll!”

“Isaac, ignore this guy. If you’re a believer of the Blue Faith, you should rightfully choose the blue one. If you choose that, I’ll buy you a doll of the great God.”

Damn bastards. Should I just kill them both?

While looking at such uncles with contempt, Isaac looked at the balls that the head of the family had laid on the floor.

A red ball imbued with the flame.

A blue ball imbued with water.

A white ball imbued with the energy of the Holy Spirit.

“Choose.”

It seemed like he had to choose from among these.
