NOVEL NEXT Chapter 57.1
Isaac smiled brightly.
What? You have to have good grades to be an executioner? Moreover, just because it’s a team evaluation, it doesn’t mean you can be first by doing well alone?
Well, then there’s nothing to be done!
If you eliminate all competitors, even if you end up last, you’ll still be first!
‘Hehehe.’
As Isaac smiled, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Honestly, no one had dreamed that this kid would have an interest in the execution of the demon.
Of course, the competition for the execution ceremony of the one of fourteen demons was very high.
Executing the Skeleton King’s subordinates?
That was the greatest honor and glory that anyone in the priesthood would want.
‘What could be better than raising your name like this?’
Even the highest-ranking priests wanted to do it, but was this opportunity given to the new priests this year?
‘This year’s apprentices… the competition is no joke.’
Well, Isaac had defeated the curse of the Skeleton King, and there was talk at the meeting of involving him in the execution ceremony.
The Eshua family naturally tried to refuse.
Why?
Why! Because if Isaac got too close to the Skeleton King, he might take the damn dark path… No, it seemed like he might go down an irreversible path!
Now, he seemed to be managing the Skeleton King’s magic, but what if the Skeleton King’s subordinates found Isaac?
Whether Isaac falls or the demon tries to kill Isaac to consume his magic power!
It was the worst for the Eshua family!
So, the head of the Blue family also tried to refuse.
-This is a child who received a recommendation. If we involve him to that extent, there will be complaints about favoritism.
-Yes. At least he must meet the qualification conditions.
-If it’s a condition, are they the 5 virtues of faith, the
-Yes. If you achieve that, you can participate.
The Eshua family silently cheered.
Pentagon is the basic qualification evaluation for priests!
‘Isaac can’t pass that!’
‘No way. With that level of faith?’
‘He’s disqualified.’
They couldn’t do anything about Isaac’s ordination, but what if he was disqualified?
‘We have to take him home right away!’
Anyway, that was the situation.
As such, Isaac will never have to meet the Skeleton King’s subordinates in person, but how wonderful it is just to think about it!
“Yes, that’s a good idea. It’s not just about me doing well; there’s nothing I can do.”
“Yes. There’s nothing you can do.”
So, instead of my team, I’ll kill everyone in other teams.
“I’ll do my best, don’t worry.”
I’ll do my best to crush them.
Lilai was very relieved at that smile.
‘Still, it’s truly fortunate that this child is going on the right path…!’
He won’t commit a crime and become a dark priest!
Now, the only remaining problem is…
“Oh, I forgot to ask, which god chose you?”
Flinch.
At Shuri’s question, the two uncles looked at Isaac in surprise. Could it be that Isaac heard about the god?
At the same time, Isaac narrowed his eyes.
“I didn’t hear exactly what it was, but it was a sentence disgusting enough to make me vomit.”
Damn, it’s an evil god after all!
Of course, as Isaac, all the patterns of the gods were disgusting, especially the fact that the highest god came out was revolting, but people couldn’t know that.
“I received a notice later about a nameless lower god.”
Wait, how horrible must that evil god be if they didn’t even notify Isaac of his name?!
“The Golden Cardinal said he would like to see me for a moment.”
“What? That terrible human being?!”
No, why does that person call only Isaac separately?!
‘Is he trying to settle things here?’
“Ah, Isaac. If that’s true…”
“I’m not going. Why should I be summoned to the Pope?”
“Isaac…!”
Everyone looked at Isaac as if moved, but Isaac himself had a stern look.
‘Who the hell dares to tell me where to come or go.’
Ironically, what Isaac was urgent about now was the evaluation as an apprentice priest.
During the execution ceremony, it’s enough to climb up by dealing with other teams. But to enter the central headquarters of the Pope, you have to achieve a certain level of performance.
That way, you can become a Saint and show the gods a thing or two.
‘Was it the
Without faith, it was extremely important to think about how to pass, but the problem is the team’s performance.
Of course, the easiest way to win in the game is to overpower with specs. However, this year’s candidates, gathered from geniuses throughout history, were no fools. Where could he find a cheat code to cover that…?
And the best thing to do is to recruit someone with overwhelming skills…
And then it happened.
“Isaac Eshua!”
“!”
Someone appeared in front of Isaac.
“I have something to discuss with you.”
And both uncles and even Shuri were surprised by the figure that appeared.
Why is he here?
* * *
What’s this guy?
Isaac blinked at the figure in front of him. The other Eshua raised his trembling eyebrows because of a different meaning.
There was no other choice.
‘It’s Kina Berit!’
Prominent white hair. A guy who exudes ‘I come from a noble lineage’ even if he passes by on a horse from 100 meters away.
Isaac’s uncles and Shuri couldn’t help but be in an uproar.
“…Brother! Why did that kid come to see Isaac?! What happened?!”
“Don’t you know?!”
“How would I know if my brother doesn’t?!”
“Ugh! Shuri, don’t you know?”
“…I don’t know.”
They whispered and looked at Kina.
However, Kina Berit seemed not to notice them at all, almost glaring at Isaac.
No, it was more like a fighting spirit than a glare…
‘He really came to handle it himself?!’
‘Did his father tell him?’
It’s true that he has a lot of nerve to face an 8th rank paladin, but Kina Berit was already considered a little Pope.
Thinking that they can handle Isaac with an 8th rank paladin was undoubtedly wrong.
‘Indeed, before touching Isaac, we have to drive him away…’
As Lilai’s eyes grew cold and he reached for his sword-
“I thought you were just a loser.”
…What?
“But you deliberately didn’t show yourself for ten years for training. To prevent your skills from mixing with other kids.”
…What??
“I saw you at the ordination ceremony, but you’re different from other guys. You don’t need to be an apprentice. No, it’s a waste. So let’s train together under my grandfather!”
…What?!!
“We’re going straight to the world of pros!”
What is he saying now!!
Isaac’s uncles and Shuri were about to scream. Even in the abnormal situation where Kina Berit came to see Isaac.
What is he saying now?
He’s going to drive away the apprentice priest, give Isaac private lessons, and let him receive training directly from the Pope?!
“Until now, the guys I’ve seen have been trash, but you’re different. You’re the only one who can compete with me.”
“…???”
Goel held onto Lilai with an even more dumbfounded expression.
“Isaac, was he such a skilled kid?”
“…Um, well, when I tested him, his skills weren’t bad, but…”
If the genius Lilai says he’s not bad, it means he’s around the 5th or 6th rank. No, considering that this guy has an extinguished flame, he might be slightly lower.
That’s why it was even more incomprehensible.
Considering that Kina Berit usually ignores other priest children.
Of course, it wasn’t contemptuous like the rude contempt of a hostile Naiser Sephet, but rather thinking that the level was different. Like considering humans and ants as equal.
Especially the guy who had a bad opinion of Saintesses?
‘Is this a new harassment from the Pope’s family?’
No, for something like that, Kina Berit’s gaze seemed quite sincere.
“Eshua. Let’s execute the Skeleton King together and lead the Holy Empire together with me.”
And Isaac’s eyes full of disgust also seemed sincere.
‘What’s this guy saying?’
[Do you want to be executed?]
Yes, that’s how Isaac heard it.
