Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga

Chapter 545

With the departure of the Special Operations Department and the appearance of the Church, the situation in Leitor began to be sorted out in an instant, but the clean-up was not as smooth as the erosion they left behind.

Even though they are weaker than the corroding bodies of Rengi and Epaga Sierra, which cause great damage just by running amok, they are stronger than ordinary demons. It was fortunate that this place had a much higher percentage of Asmodians and other races than Humans, so it was fortunate that if they ran rampant among the Humans, they would not have been smooth, but would have suffered enormous damage.

Of course, because of its unique contamination ability, it was always the same thing for the demons to suffer damage if they were not dealt with, but we were able to overcome it somehow because we had Count Leitor and his troops, who had already become accustomed to dealing with them several times.

He was not nervous even in the process of knocking out the Special Operations Division, and he was aware of the possibility that the Special Operations Division would escape using the rampage of the erosion body as the last shield, and as soon as the Demon King’s supporters were wrapped up with the church, he prepared for this. He boldly divided his forces and joined the Order.

As a result, the situation went as he expected, and with the help of the proficient Count, the church was able to drive out the corroding body with minimal human casualties.

That was already five days ago.

“Count Leitor is very competent. As expected, it seems that rumors are not easy to believe.”

Lady Deoni, who kindly explained the whole process to me, put the document she was holding on the table and stared at me with eyes full of will to rebuke.

The saintess’ face, looking at me who was lying on the bed and unable to move, showed little concern for a while, as if she was trying to prove that the saintess had a strong will and the power to act that did not hesitate to act at the same time. He continued to speak in an absent tone.

“Of course, as the hero ‘forcefully’ dealt with the Special Operations Department and Soha Shinore, and even attempted to chase ‘alone’, capturing the main figure presumed to be his lieutenant and a number of Special Operations members, it is infinitely insufficient and indolent to say that it is a great achievement. It will be the result.”

correction.

It is a tone that contains very little irritation, anger, and sadness.

“Well, that’s probably a bit of an erroneous assessment…” ”
No, you don’t have to be humble. After dealing with the so-called ‘infectious body’, led by Earl Leitor and his soldiers, we decided to call it ‘infectious body’. It is true that the situation was completed with only a small number of deaths and minor injuries, but if the hero considered this as an ‘achievement’, it would not have happened that he ran into the Special Operations Division alone without cooperation with them. It’s just compensation for what made it move.”

You could see the saintess trying to imitate that she was very, very angry, as she spoke while spinning the words ‘Why did you move alone and forced yourself to lie down like this?’ From my point of view, who witnessed how angry he was, it was just a lot of clumsy acting.

That said, I don’t think her words are wrong. Because my actions were very arbitrary. If I had only watched and waited for the allies to join, I might have been able to catch or punish Soha.

“sorry.”

If my arms were still intact, I would have shamelessly scratched the back of my head, but now it was literally difficult to even lift a finger, so all I could do was to roll my eyes and sincerely apologize. Then, along with a deep sigh, the saintess’ face relaxed a little.

“…Haha, why the hell did you move alone?”

‘Because it was a surprise attack’ in one word containing more worries and concerns than rebuke. couldn’t say

Apart from the success of the surprise attack, after a head-on confrontation with the variable named Soha Shinore, it was all overturned because he was saved and sent.

The situation of confronting him, his skills, the runaway of divine power and magical power I belatedly tried, and the power of the dagger his lieutenant used, none of my predictions came true. This is no different from just closing your eyes and hoping that the sword you swung will hit the enemy.

How can you confidently say that things went according to plan? It’s a pity that even the mediocre achievement of capturing the special operations department was achieved, but without that, a heartbreaking situation would have unfolded in which only the bluffing I had been working so hard for was exposed.

Even a real big problem occurred after joining the church.

“There are things that only the hero can do, and there are things that cannot be done. According to what I have heard, it was only possible with the hero’s ability to naturally step in the back of the Special Operations Department, but things that happened after that were not like that. Do you not believe in those who are dedicated to following the hero, and jump like a moth into an uncertain danger?”

Listening to the saintess who was silent for a while, pouring out her words again, despite the fact that it is difficult to lift a finger, I feel my whole body shriveling with regret. As he said that, he kept pouring his divine power to check my body, so the guilt grew even more.

“Even looking at this situation, it is the same. It is the first time that this has happened to other high-ranking clergymen as well as me, who is proud to have read a lot of church records. No one knows what might have happened.”

While saying that, the saintess absorbed the divine power emanating from my body. Fortunately, unlike the first time I lay down, the amount has decreased to some extent, so it seems that I can handle it alone.

“It looks like it has stabilized to some extent. The leaking divine power has decreased a lot.”
“…Sorry for the inconvenience.”
“If you know, don’t do that again. If even magic power overflows, people will die. How on earth can you come up with the idea of gaining power by exploding divine power?”

The fact that I missed Soha Shinore and all my bluffing was in vain is a real big problem.

Right now, I am close to a human divine power bomb or sanctuary generator.

It was the result and aftereffect of using divine power like a mana runaway. On the first day, I thought I was suffering from overwork, but it turned out that the divine power flowing excessively from within was eating away at my body.

It seemed to be the result of a fantastic synergy between the fragment of divinity that Ephaga had spoken about and the authority He had arranged for me. Until now, no one had attempted this, and since there had been no cases, no one was sure… but I, the person involved, could vaguely know.

That the warrior’s power dwelling within me was a kind of divine power faucet. Even this is not an accurate metaphor, but it is the most plausible metaphor.

When this faucet is opened, power is manifested through the process of water called divine power flowing in from the water source called Epaga-nim. Of course, originally there was a safety device that only allowed mortals to handle it, but I broke it this time.

Up to that point, it can be said that it was not much different from what was expected, but the real problem was that the piece of divinity that dwelled in me that I had to simply break the lock and end it was that I pulled out the entire faucet.

No matter how much divine power a mortal can handle, it’s just a small gap, but it continues to flow as long as the water source doesn’t dry up. By the time I noticed the abnormality, Este had already let out a grotesque moan in a state where she couldn’t do her job like me.

As the saintess said, it was a shame because there were a lot of high-ranking priests by my side.

“I didn’t know it was like this.”
“…We’ll understand this time. It’s the first time we’ve known it, too.”

He seemed to have a lot to say, but the saintess held it in. But let’s stay still, so maybe he was trying to nag me, and after hesitating for a while, he changed the topic with a deep sigh.

“Most of the Demon King’s supporters in Leitor have been wiped out. Now we are looking into other areas that can be moved through the gate.”
“Hasn’t the next destination been decided?”

I remembered the plan to go to the gate of a small city near the mountain range and move to the front line on foot.

“It was, but more and more people changed their attitude after realizing that our size remained largely unchanged. Thanks to Count Leitor, who quickly spread rumors as soon as he took control of the city. It seems to be moving.”
“…Can I move by then?”
“Wagons are not decorative.”

The saintess muttered, ‘I’d like to put her on a cart, but…’ and she cautiously averted her gaze.

After taking care of the divine power that flowed from me in silence for a while, the saintess immediately withdrew her hand and quietly stood up and opened her mouth.

“Even though Siegfried, the hero possessed by Ete of Light, can drive out the demon lord and bring peace to the human race, the stigma of the demon tribe, church, and demon god created by the apostates is a problem that can only be resolved with Eldmia-sama’s cooperation. Please remember that.”

If it was Siegfried, who was arbitrarily summoned and faced with the pleasureless responsibility, it would have been impossible, but since I was the one who voluntarily decided to become a hero that Epaga-sama had told me not to do in the first place, the saintess’ words were completely correct.

“I’ll keep that in mind.”

Thanks to that, I had nothing to say even if I had ten mouths, so I just kept crouching and seeing the saintess go out the door, at least with my eyes.
