chapter 50
Episode 50. Leon chase. (2)
“Ha…. Sifal.”
I found my brother.
This goddamn bastard was found on the corner of a rural village.
However, there is a problem.
Elias came with bad news.
“Two?”
“Yes. Bishops and cardinals are together.”
“I’m going crazy.”
Pagans never unite.
To be precise, it means that no one above the bishop level will ever unite, but bishops and cardinals are together?
“It’s a bit difficult to deal with both of them.”
In fact, out of the current staff, only me and the princess can deal with pagans of bishop level or higher in a one-on-one fight.
However, my ability is close to zero, so I can barely do defensive battles, and the actual combat power is only the princess, but it is too difficult to deal with two of them.
Of course, I won’t lose easily.
The damage will be enormous on our side.
Besides…. Maybe I should deal with my brother as well.
“Why the hell are you doing that there? Leon c Kruger.”
Damn the butterfly effect.
Still, does the protagonist hold hands with the heretics? Are you crazy?
“How do I do it?”
“Let’s think about it for a moment.”
If there were Schlageter children, it would have been easier.
If the general pagans were attacked by the mercenaries, the bishop by the Schlageter children, the cardinal by the princess, and Johanna together, there would be some damage, but it would not have been difficult.
In the meantime, I was dealing with my brother.
I can’t do that now, so it’s a problem.
“Is the North very dangerous if the Schlageter children are taken away?”
“Yes. Dozens of villages will disappear.”
“What the hell are these crazy Imperial bastards doing?”
This rotten empire doesn’t care about the north at all, perhaps because it’s oversized and slow to judge the situation.
What’s more, the military authority is concentrated in only one emperor, so it seems that it is not easy for even the princess to solve it.
This is a problem that cannot be postponed.
It wouldn’t have been a problem if he had just left it and dealt with it when he came back, but since it’s related to paganism, we can’t just leave it alone.
Because you never know when or how you’re going to destroy this damn world.
“For now, can I keep watching?”
“It’s too much.”
“Damn it, really.”
“Can’t I call Maya or Emma?”
“No.”
Maya hasn’t even awakened yet.
Emma has to stay by Maya’s side.
The last time Emma helped me was luck that comes once in a while.
Besides, the dukehouse is not functioning properly right now.
Emma should be by Maya’s side.
“If the damn demons are after Maya, there’s no one else to protect her but Emma.”
It is very likely that the demons are aware of the existence of Emma and Maya.
Both of them are suitable prey for demons in their own way.
The other day, the Duke’s family was protecting them, so the two demons couldn’t do anything.
If they had food as delicious as mine, they might have risked being exposed.
If you bring in those two, you may have to deal with the heretics and demons at the same time, and it will be rather dangerous….
The best thing is for the two of them to just stay in the academy.
If it’s inside the academy, and if Emma is guarding it, the demons won’t recklessly attack those two.
“It’s a real pile-up. f*ck.”
I swear involuntarily.
There is no place to get support.
Damn it….
************************
She didn’t have any proper countermeasures for the princess who visited just in case.
“Is it impossible to mobilize my knights?”
“It’s too much. Florence.”
The two knights beside the princess knew that with simple force, they might be stronger than me without using their abilities.
Even hyung won’t win easily.
However, it is different for pagans.
Because fighting close to those guys who use special abilities is just an act of increasing the number of enemies.
It’s just a matter of compatibility.
“According to what you said, no one but your mercenaries can help….”
The mercenaries can deal with the heretics more easily than the knights thanks to their experience and guns that have already dealt with the heretics several times.
Of course, it’s impossible to be above the bishop level.
“Ha ha. Thanks to that, things got messed up for a while.”
“Tsk. It’s all your karma.”
“That’s right.”
Than the karma created by my laziness.
As soon as I returned to the academy, I lured him in, caught him, locked him up, and made it difficult for him to do something that would have been easy with Johanna’s support.
“What about giving up the core? I think it would be better to just receive support from the Goddess Church.”
“Then it will be a little easier.”
If the Holy Knights of the Goddess Church or the Heretic Inquisitor help, things will be incredibly easy.
The enormous amount is also a lot, but the Goddess Church, which has a far superiority over pagans in terms of characteristics, is a group that can easily deal with pagans once they find them.
“However, if you are the princess, if you completely give up your physical abilities and return to normal, can you go back?”
“I will never give up.”
“Me too…. But where did you hear about that core?”
The story came out so naturally that even I almost skipped it.
“You would be surprised to know how close I am to Elias.”
“Is that so….”
Oh…. It seems that we have become close to the point of jealousy.
“Anyway, it’s impossible for me. Find another way.”
“Ha ha. All right.”
In the end, the princess couldn’t find an answer.
***************************
“Is it only for 15 days?”
“Yes. I’m a bit busy in the meantime.”
Maya, whom I hadn’t seen in a long time, seemed calm.
“Nico. Now I’ve caught all the fish. Is this it? You know the old alignment is gone, right?”
“… That’s not it.”
Catching all the fish is just getting more difficult.
I like Maya, but…. A little difficult.
How to treat me, what Maya thinks of me.
Besides, because I was overlapping with my older brother’s work, I couldn’t find time.
” Are you busy? I must understand.”
“Thank you. Maya.”
“So, why are you here today?”
“There is nothing special about it. I just came to see Maya’s face.”
“Hmm…. You came to see Florence unnie, and you didn’t see me as a bonus, did you?”
“… No.”
“Well, I will believe you.”
When Maya said that, she didn’t have an expression of faith.
“Take Emma.”
“Yes?”
I was perplexed.
She thought there was no way Maya knew what was going on with me, but she suddenly said she was taking Emma away.
“I heard the conversation I had with Florence, so don’t worry, she said take Emma.”
Are you Emma….
She didn’t even notice when it stuck.
“… Maya may be in danger.”
“Don’t worry.”
Pig support weave.
“…”
Electricity rushes through Maya’s hands.
It is not Jeong Eui-bong.
Her pure power.
“From the Duke to yesterday. I was constantly thinking and thinking. After all, our ducal family was powerless. Oh, we were stupid.”
“That…. Maya?”
“It was difficult. The devil, to say that the Duke of Mayer was played by the devil. Furthermore…. Ah, I realized that the power of our ducal family was an illusion that even a single baron could not defeat.”
“…”
“After thinking so much, I came across something like this on my hand. Nico, do you know what this is?”
“…”
“Do you know what was the first thought that came to me after I had this power?”
“I don’t know… It is.”
Maya has awakened.
It doesn’t seem like she’s fully awakened, but she’s able to use her abilities.
That’s just the beginning.
When you finally achieve complete awakening….
“I wanted to ask Nico about this.”
“What… ?”
“Nico…. Why did you kiss Emma?”
“Yes?”
“I’m asking why you kissed Emma.”
Maya’s eyes were just shining.
Although she was shaking her righteous hand, her power four times stronger than before.
************
Really, I almost died.
Of all the dangers of death I felt after being born here, I was truly most afraid.
Fortunately, it seems that they understood after desperate excuses….
Did you understand? Right?
Haa….
“Puff….”
“Don’t laugh.”
Although Emma was laughing beside her.
“I’ve never seen him so desperate.”
“…Why did you say things that would misunderstand Maya….”
Besides, he didn’t even help me when I made excuses.
Perhaps it was because it looked fun.
Still, I got one ally.
Now, you can go catch her brother.
The princess and Johanna are cardinals, Emma is a bishop, and I am the older brother.
The mercenary corps took the rest.
“Are you confident, Nico?”
“Of course, I always win.”
If you just attack with your bare body, I’ll lose.
But, it’s different from the time of martial arts.
On the contrary, you can win more easily.
“Is that possible, Emma?”
“Well, it won’t take long if she’s the kind of person I saw last time.”
I’m not a person who bluffs with things like this, so I can trust you.
“If there is no one around and it is just the two of you.”
“That won’t be a problem.”
Because the mercenaries will deal with the losers.
It is not difficult to sort out the opponent.
“Then, should I kiss you again?”
“… That’s it.”
No need.
There will be none.
Perhaps.
Seriously…….
As expected, maybe….
