I’m Going to Destroy this Country

Kina was surprised.

‘Mimic Beetle.’

It looked like a pattern similar to the surroundings, but there was something wriggling. It was aiming for students hiding against the wall.

“It’s trying to poison them. The skeleton guy said it before, ‘to stop the seed’. The seeds of this country are the students who have just been ordained priests.”

Perhaps that fake Skeleton King aimed for that. He gloriously appeared as a decoy, and maybe his true purpose was the students. Besides, it even secretly planted spies through poisoning.

‘There might already be someone affected.’

Well, it was clearly seen in Isaac’s eyes.

“Anyway, if you’re going to do something, get rid of that bug.”

Kina Berit chuckled and flicked his finger.

“What’s so great about that bug…?”

Still, it was annoying, so he thought about getting rid of it.

Thud! Bang!

-Kuek!

As Kina Berit burned the bug, the demon that had been growing larger in front of them disappeared like ashes in an instant.

Astonished, Kina Berit grabbed Isaac.

“Where the hell did you learn this strategy?!”

“Where… well…”

But as Isaac was about to answer, he smirked.

Wait a minute. Calm down.

Come to think of it, there’s a much easier and simpler way to be recognized as a Saint than dealing with those demons.

‘What if I poison these students and then cure them? Easy, right?’

That’s it! Why bother running around here and there!

Poison!!

This body was born with the perfect Purification sacred technique that was surprisingly compatible with poisons!

Rather than dirtying his hands with killing the priests, he can just make them suffer until they’re about to die!

Moreover, if it’s a level of poisoning that even high-ranking priests find hard to detoxify, his treatment will shine even more, right?

Right! Becoming a Saint was so easy!

As Isaac started to laugh while looking at the students, the head of the Blue family was surprised.

What the hell is that kid trying to do, laughing like a pervert?

But either way, Kina Berit urgently grabbed Isaac’s shoulder.

“Hey, are you listening to me? Where did you learn that?”

However, Isaac, holding back his laughter, picked up a stone, ignoring Kina Berit’s words.

“Ah, forget it, just catch that bug!”

“??”

Isaac threw the stone at another hidden bug.

Thud!

The bug that the stone brushed against started to run away in surprise.

Kina Berit started to draw a symbol for the attack sacred technique. With the bug escaping like that, it would require the use of a more extensive magical strategy.

At that moment, a bug buzzed and trembled-

-Caught you!

Isaac’s eyes turned into a sinister crescent moon.

Yes, exactly!

Caught!

From the beginning, that demon emitted a toxic gas when its main body was discovered and destroyed. Therefore, the real strategy is to make it disappear at once without others noticing.

There’s no need to reveal the true method, right? After all, if he used the poison spell, the priests here weren’t fools and would definitely notice.

So, to put it simply-

‘Isn’t it best to take advantage of someone else’s poison?’

Even if it goes wrong here, it becomes the Pope’s grandson’s aiming mistake.

So, now!

‘Let’s all get hit by the poison gas!’

As soon as the words were uttered, the bug hit by Kina Berit’s sacred technique exploded, emitting poisonous gas…

Kugugung!!

…Unable to survive, it disappeared due to the spell. What a bastard.

Well, the first goal was achieved, and everything went as expected.

Let’s stick to the original plan.

Isaac clenched his fist and his eyes flashed. Then, an amazing thing happened.

Flash!

A light of holy power centered around Isaac overturned the entire banquet hall, corridors, and everywhere else, extending to every hidden Skeleton King’s magic power, erasing them.

Kugugung!

It was the moment when the magic power of the Skeleton King covering the symbols and buildings was completely erased.

Well, there were persistent ones.

-Those who defy the great king…! I won’t forgive you!

Ah, well! I know you’re impatient, but can you ease up a bit?

The surroundings seemed to be quite high-level, as they didn’t easily disappear in the light of purification. Even the shadows wriggling on the wall secretly eyed the students, climbing up to Isaac’s legs.

-You damn priest! According to the orders of the great king, I’ll take one more with me!

Is this guy crawling up?

‘Just like that.’

Isaac, with his eyes flashing, met the gaze of the creature.

Whoops!

-!

The shadow froze completely.

-This, this power…?!

As if sensing something, the shadow turned into a haze and fled trembling.

Kina Berit, who saw the scene, was taken aback.

‘He chased a demon with his eyes?’

And just as Kina Berit was about to confirm it properly…

Flash!

Finally, with the light, all demons scattered, and people were astonished. Students were also in awe.

“To control the power of Purification to this extent!”

“Isn’t this the same level as the Pope’s grandson?”

“Shh!”

The students closed their mouths as they looked at the Golden Cardinal.

But ironically, it was the Golden Cardinal who was surprised.

“At this level, wouldn’t it be looking down on the 6th rank?”

“I’m curious about which faith he will choose.”

“Isn’t that what Cardinal Berit thinks too?”

Cardinal Berit looked like he had chewed on a bug at the words of the Red Cardinal.

‘6th rank? These snakes can see clearly.’

Just by looking at Purification, he was already at the 8th rank. Everyone noticed that, but they purposely mentioned it as if it was downgraded.

‘It’s definitely to take him to their own faith.’

So now, they’re deliberately making smoke to reveal his true feelings.

But it seems like these petty tricks won’t work.

“Well, that’s right. Occasionally, there’s a child with talent only in ‘specific’ sacred techniques, but I was surprised to see a child who can compete with Kina.”

“Well, Kina is already at the 8th rank, isn’t he? The next Pope has already been decided. Hahaha.”

Hearing that, Kina Berit tightly bit his lips.

His hands were trembling.

No.

That bastard, he’s not at the level where he can be distinguished by a few ranks…!

He saw the scene just now very clearly. Isaac chasing away demons with just his eyes!

And that was the ultimate area that Kina wanted to touch even ten years ago and still wants.

‘That’s grandfather’s technique.’

It was something that only the Pope could do.
