Chapter 74.2
However, Isaac was laughing heartily.
Priests wouldn’t understand!
When the
‘Do you think I increased their stamina for no reason?’
From the beginning, he raised their stamina for this purpose. If they entered in this state, they would need more stamina than usual.
Well, despite not knowing anything, the Blue team was happy during training.
-Still, thanks to Isaac, it became worth fighting against the Red! We’ve definitely gotten stronger!
-Yeah! That’s right! Let’s trust Isaac!
-Great! The important things are mental strength and unwavering faith!
Isaac grinned.
‘Huh, thinking they can deal with the Red just because they trained a bit. Innocent babies.’
They hadn’t even undergone formation training, command training, or proper education, and they thought they could defeat the Red in just a month?!
Friendship and hard work?
It’s laughable!
If these chicks, who trained their stamina a bit, could easily beat those who had been working hard for years, that would be truly unfair.
Yeah, that’s why to make it fair, he should break them with the accumulated experience of hundreds of years on this side.
The Demon King’s eyes twinkled.
Isaac had tried to control the priests by turning them into beasts.
At the same time, the priests of the White seemed to have sensed something and protested. They had noticed that the Blue team members were chewing on something.
“Aren’t those the vitality herbs grown in the White’s garden?!”
“They were stolen not too long ago!”
Stolen…? The Blue engaged in theft?
Everyone was shocked and looked at Isaac, but Isaac just flicked his ears.
“Originally, I was planning to use it on the divine beings of the White to escape from their cages. Well, using it on humans is more beneficial in many ways.”
…What, escape?!
“Since the divine beings of the White will be delicious when pulled out.”
As soon as the priests of the White heard that, they collapsed.
“Oh…! Bishop! Bishop has fainted again!”
“That impudent heathen!”
The White expressed anger, protested, and looked at Lilai, the Blue’s representative, as if asking if everything was okay. However, Lilai just smiled.
“…It hasn’t worked as a full course yet.”
“Sir Lilai!!”
In other faiths, people were curious about what method was used to achieve such effects, but the Blue knights broke into a cold sweat.
“More importantly, all the team members are noble disciples… Is it okay to handle them so roughly…?”
Instead of answering, Lilai laughed.
‘It’s fortunate that Father isn’t here.’
If he was here, he would have grabbed his neck and collapsed.
Asili also smiled.
“It’s fortunate that there are no high nobles.”
People around them broke into a cold sweat.
‘Even though Molech, a member of Isaac’s team, seems like he could be a high noble…’
Especially Molech’s father. If it was Count Molech, it would have been chaotic.
‘If he intentionally took Molech out as a hostage to prevent internal conflict, he’s quite clever.’
It means he has political sense.
Lilai was positive about that aspect as well.
“It was clever to take Molech out. It would be troublesome if the Count got involved.”
“…What about Count Simon…?”
Simon’s son, Amon Eiji, had also completely turned into a beast. Moreover, the heir to the Count acted like a beast by lifting one foot and urinating on the arena…
“Ah! Stop him! Stop him!”
“It’s a relief! He didn’t pull his pants down! His actions were just like that!”
Seeing that sight, the knights glanced at Lilai, but Lilai turned his gaze away.
“Simon… you can deal with him however you want.”
…Really?
“Well, it’s okay. This is the strategy.”
Strategy? Is that a strategy?
“Yes, winning is important.”
…The Blue, are these guys really okay?
Weren’t they supposed to treat their comrades like family?
Instead, they’re ignoring their comrades and even turning them into dogs?
While priests and knights of other faiths had their pupils shaking, the ground soon shook.
Kugung!
“!”
The appearance of the arena began to change.
Priests of the Red, positioned in the north, south, east, and west, were drawing signals and using summoning sacred techniques.
Kugugugu!
In the vast Colosseum, natural elements began to fill the empty space.
Ponds resembling gemstones, waterfalls, rocks, and trees surrounding the pond. Beautiful and gigantic statues and sculptures were there too.
However, the shapes of plants and rocks were somewhat bizarre.
They were shapes that could never be seen on the human continent.
“Oh, is that the divine garden…!”
“It seems to be allowed by the Red God!”
Sincere exclamations erupted from various places.
All the summoned elements of nature were brought from the divine realm. Priests could obtain permission from the god they served, and the god, in turn, could lend some approved locations.
It was a fantastic and solemn scene that could only be seen at the Pentagon.
Naiser and the Red apprentices shrugged their shoulders at the admiration around them.
Soon, when the Red Cardinal recited a phrase, a gigantic statue rose from the ground.
“Oh! You’ve summoned that!”
The Red Bishop gestured first.
“Thanks to the Red God for allowing us to borrow this place!”
People, regardless of their faith, climbed onto the ≪God of Criminal Justice≫ statue that had appeared in the garden and prayed.
All gods were objects of worship, and, especially, a god of the high god was an object of worship regardless of the faith.
The Red apprentices, too, changed their eyes and joined their hands. It wasn’t an ordinary sight.
“Hurry and pray with your faith! The higher your faith, the more blessings the Red God will bestow! It will give you an advantage in the match!”
“Oh!”
Shuri, who joined his hands, also bit his lips at the majestic scene.
‘Isaac actually said that he could do that to me.’
So, believing in that guy, he wanted to show everything in this test…
Boom!
The explosion sound echoed.
The face of the deity statue that had risen in the garden was shattered. Everyone who was praying to the god doubted their eyes and ears.
Shuri, horrified, looked at the perpetrator who had blown up the stone’s face.
‘Isaaaaaaac!’
It was Isaac who couldn’t stand it and blew up the face of the god they were praying to.
Isaac, as if realizing his mistake, twitched his eyebrows.
“It accidentally was a conditioned reflex…”
You crazy bastard!
Everyone’s astonished gaze turned to Isaac.
Shuri wanted to faint.
Is this guy… Can he really be trusted?
