Chapter 71.2
Well, in the first place, Goel had an inferiority complex in his bloodline. It was natural for him to explode when he heard such words.
And inevitably.
“Don’t shut up?! Even if you don’t say it, I will definitely raise my son to be the head of Eshua! Isaac Eshua and the like!”
Yeah. That’s right.
A guy who loves his child so much that he would raise him to be the head, such a guy wouldn’t pass on information advantageous to Isaac.
“Become a beetle as a beetle should. Papilio. Even if you devote yourself to Eshua, do you think the Pope will think of the bloodline of the Papacy?”
Goel went to the main gate while swearing and cursing.
The head maid jumped out in surprise.
“Master Goel!”
“Don’t catch me.”
“…!”
When Cardinal Berit entered the mansion coldly, Goel burst into a bitter laugh.
‘Really, did a Supreme God come out?’
Isaac chose a Supreme God!
Goel couldn’t believe it.
Even after seeing the emblem, he wasn’t sure, but seeing Cardinal Berit’s attitude, Goel was completely convinced.
As if Cardinal Berit knew Goel’s personality well, Goel also knew that guy’s personality well.
Really, if a lower god came out, there was no way he would provoke him like this.
He probably let him misunderstand on his own.
Even if it wasn’t, that reaction indicated that there was really something.
And the Supreme God?
Then the story becomes simple.
‘If I raise Isaac well, can’t I turn the tables and devour Berit in reverse?’
Goel went straight to the Blue House.
And on the other hand. Cardinal Berit, who returned to the mansion, headed to his office as if annoyed.
In fact, Cardinal Berit didn’t come to his house for another reason.
-I heard that Isaac Eshua chose a very valuable deity at the ordination ceremony. Are you planning to intercept it, Gold?
Because the Red Cardinal came to pick a fight.
And if they find out which god Isaac chose, everyone from the Blue to the Red will be curious and try to pursue Isaac.
He remembered what Isaac had said with the same face as his mother.
-I will never go to the Papacy.
Cardinal Berit took out a small blue pouch from the drawer. It was none other than the belongings of Isaac’s mother, the Saintess, who disappeared ten years ago.
He narrowed his eyes.
‘If you can’t have it, destroying it is also a solution.’

“…What is this?”
The Blue tram gathered in front of the dormitory, doubting their eyes.
So what’s piled up like a tower on the dormitory playground…
“Sandbags?”
“What is this tacky thing?”
When Shuri suddenly asked them to gather, they came wondering what it was.
“Why is something that smells like knights’ training ground here?”
“Why? Because you guys have to carry it and run.”
“???”
The Blue team members looked at Isaac as if saying, ‘What nonsense is this?’ With bandages wrapped around one hand, Isaac cleared his throat.
“Well, brothers should know, but the Pentagon test is coming up soon.
“I know. But why do such a tacky thing? It’s enough to hire paladins for physical activities.”
“That’s right. What’s important to priests is the sacred techniques! It’s the communion with the gods that came out during the ordination ceremony! If you pray every day and raise your faith…”
Isaac smacked the back of their heads.
Ahh, come on!
These naive, immature noble brats!
It’s so ridiculous that I feel like my neck is going to snap!
What? To pray?
Hire paladins?
“Hey, you guys. Even after all that, do you discuss the execution?”
“!”
Isaac’s eyes gleamed like a mad dog.
“Is the subordinate of the Skeleton King so easy? Is the Skeleton King easy?”
“??!”
Well, it’s common for priests to hire paladins. It was like a magician hiring a mercenary swordsman.
In fact, even at the Academy, there seemed to be active exchanges between
It was the same after graduation. Even now, isn’t there a scheduled time for the
But that’s useless in a war!
Why?
The Skeleton King knew it too!
He knew it so well that he deliberately kept the paladins and priests separate and started the game like that!
He even taught the demons to be so hard on themselves!
‘I know, wouldn’t they do that dirty thing even better?’
Was it him, or were those stupid priests helpless?
Did they think that the Blue, who fights demons directly, emphasized this training for no reason?
“Hey, Isaac. What god did you choose? Ah, forget it, judging by what you haven’t said so far, we’ll find out soon enough. It’s all right now, so don’t worry and trust your older brother. This time, I picked a good god even if I say so myself. Just pray well, and that’s enough… Ack!”
Isaac flicked away the priests, who were talking nonsense, with a sandbag.
“Just praying well, and the pervert Cardinal bastards who are in the prayer room every day are already gods! You guys! Do you think the test is a joke?!”
“B-But in the next turn, the direct combat in the Gold Pentagon will be handled by the paladins. Because it’s a mission that requires using your head…”
“Ah, the Gold Pentagon you’re talking about, the one that uses your head, has been pushed back. We’ll do the Red Pentagon first.”
“What?!”
They were greatly surprised.
The Red Pentagon is a task for a large-scale battle. It’s a physical test.
“Did the schedule change?”
“Yeah, due to personal reasons, I’ll advance the Red Pentagon. The exam assignments will also change.”
…What?
Advancing due to personal reasons… What nonsense is this? Does the schedule go as you please?
And changing the task?
However, in the eyes of the apprentices, Isaac smiled slyly.
The holy power needed to turn the hand back to its original state?
For collecting such a trivial thing, why pray?
‘Just take it away! Pfft!’
And by the way, doesn’t the term ‘large-scale battle’ mean the time to legitimately beat and plunder the enemy’s power?
It might not be at all, but Isaac cleared his throat.
“Now! In that sense, all of you will run 50 laps around the dormitory. Practice!”
“What?!”
“You’ve been working at the Papacy until now?”
“More importantly, what are you…”
Isaac pulled out a whistle.
“…You should run. All of you.”
“If you are from the Blue, it’s not 50 laps but 100 laps.”
The Blue team started running with tears in their eyes.
It must be a delusion that the sky felt misty.
