#828. Shall I correct the misunderstanding?

* * *

The Ten Lords.

An absolute being born in the age of iron.

Although the majority are now dead, they were all extraordinary beings.

It wasn’t just because of the absolute skill.

In fact, over the past 33 years, there have been dozens of players with unique skills comparable to them.

Even so, the reason why only ten monarchs were born was simple.

died in a dungeon.

because he gave up

The 100th floor of the dungeon is a place where even the absolute must risk their lives.

No matter how great the skills, faithfully equipped, and fully prepared, most of the challengers were dead limbs.

Having cleared the 100th floor of such a dungeon and reached level 100.

By itself, the monarchs could be called special regardless of the strength of their skills.

But among those ten lords.

The divine lord was uniquely special.

In that she was the Pope of Rome before she became a player.

Even though she believed in God, her church, which did not belong to the Holy Alliance and operated independently, had been in decline for hundreds of years.

Even a young woman in her early twenties could have become Pope.

But after Johanna became Pope.

The situation has turned.

She made all the church members into players by making it a doctrine to raid dungeons every weekend.

Of course there was backlash.

A dungeon is a place where life is dangerous.

Few could jump to the limb for the sake of their faith.

However, on the other hand, in any religion, there are only a few people who can risk their lives for their faith.

Of course, they were recognized by the Constellation by willingly jumping into the dungeon and fighting to the death and proving their faith by raising their own level.

He willingly donated what he obtained from the dungeon to the church and shared it with other disciples.

And at the forefront of them was Johanna.

Even if the name is the pope of one religion.

Whether it was to prove a self-made doctrine or because of deep faith.

Johanna raised her level quickly as she navigated the dungeon more diligently than any other instructor and overcame life and death.

As much as that, the number of people who positively regard the new doctrine has also increased.

Your level is proof of your faith.

A trend was created in which it was natural for a prisoner to go into a dungeon and share what he gained there.

As the number of teachers who became players increased and the overall level increased, the church gradually became richer.

And the moment when Johanna finally cleared the 100th floor of the dungeon and reached level 100.

The school population has also increased explosively.

The religion that more than 80% of healers believe in.

By doing so, the great pope made his church enjoy a prosperity comparable to that of the Holy League.

That is Holy Lord Johanna.

Prior to becoming the Master of the Saint Guild, he was an unprecedented religious leader in history.

“It’s been a while. Swordsmith.”

So it was.

smiling brightly

The reason why Limon couldn’t help but slightly frown when he saw her calmly greeted him.

“Well… if I remember, our last meeting wouldn’t have been pleasant enough to say hello to each other like this?”

Limon’s point was right.

The Amazon where he last met Johanna.

She, who was trying to mass-produce potions, and Maia, who was trying to make nectar, were fighting to get their hands on millennial flowers first.

Thanks to fighting Johanna and other sword masters at that time, Limon fell into a drunken spell and went berserk.

It was something that Limon could never be happy about.

However, Johanna did not erase her smile.

“Well, even if it wasn’t pleasant, you must have been happy with the parting gift I left you.”

“…yes, it wasn’t bad.”

Limon’s brow narrowed even more.

When Maia runs away with him in a dying state.

It was true that she dared to capture the poison dragon squad that was left behind to prevent Johanna’s pursuit and leave it with a [GIFT] card.

“Did you admit that you owed me?”

“It is each individual’s choice whether or not to repay the debt that was forcibly erased.”

“But at least the swordsman isn’t someone who can ignore that, right?”

“…”

“Right, Guardian of Humanity?”

smile.

As if you are convinced that your thoughts are right.

At the end of looking at her with unwavering eyes and a bright smile.

Limon sighed.

“That’s why I am here.”

“Whoops, you’re really sincere.”

“There is no need for empty words. It was just something I had to do anyway.”

To Johanna, who smiled softly.

Limon cut it off and said.

Even if he didn’t ask for an interview, he still needed to talk to Johanna since he had already been captured.

Whether the conversation was going to be an interrogation or a meeting was another matter.

So, Limon asked directly.

“What is the story you wanted to talk about when you met me?”

“You have such an impatient personality.”

“Sorry, but I don’t have time for small talk right now.”

“—Are you talking about Seven Arcs?”

That moment.

Limon narrowed his eyes.

Information regarding the Seven Arcs has not been disclosed to the World Federation.

Even so, Johanna’s knowledge of the Seven Arcs was by no means something to be taken lightly, so

“Did you belong to the Liberation Brigade?”

“Please. I am a priest after all.”

“Then how do you know about Seven Arcs?”

“Now you seem to be interested in talking to me.”

“You start with the answer.”

“It’s simple. How did the people of the Liberation Brigade find out about Seven Arcs in the first place?”

“…”

“And another one.”

“…”

“Swordsmith, what kind of existence do you think a constellation is?”

Limon’s face hardened.

Where did Johanna come from… no, who exactly did she hear about the Seven Arcs from?

Because that question was enough to know.

“…How far do you know?”

“At least to the extent that you won’t regret the time you spend talking to me.”

“Prove it.”

Arms folded while pretending.

A chair tilted backwards.

However, looking at Limon, whose eyes were extremely sharp, he decided to believe it or not after hearing it.

Johanna tinkered with the teacup before opening her mouth.

“well. I’m very worried about where to start, but… First of all, let me correct the most important misunderstanding.”

“What misunderstanding are you talking about?”

“It’s about the misunderstanding that all Constellations are enemies.”

“….”

“Because their purpose is the same as yours.”

Was it because it was so stupid?

Limon had blatant disbelief in his eyes, but Johanna did not change her words.

twirling

with a soft smile

I just said it without hesitation.

“It is to save the world.”

Headquarters of the World Federation.

the most severe of these.

Originally, it was a place where the Seven Lords gathered and held meetings.

But it was not the monarch who now occupied that place.

Charlotte Yekatrice Rose Hasneti Maia Ainsha Liqingwee and Limon.

The fact that the princess of the Seven Dragons is at the core of this World Federation, which was originally formed to fight the Seven Dragons.

It was a very ironic situation, but at the same time, it was also the clearest proof that the Seven Dragons had won this war in the end.

But at this very moment.

The mood of the victors was by no means bright.

Rather, it was even more serious.

At most, the World Federation was destroyed and occupied.

It wasn’t just because of the disappointment of not being able to capture the sword master, including the regressive lord and commander lord, who were the core.

It’s because the story the divine lord told Limon complicated their minds.

How should I take this information?

In the middle of silence while struggling.

In the end, it was a cheerful voice that broke the stillness.

“Here, brother. I have a question.”

“What do you mean?”

“Do you believe that bullshit?”

“Well….”

A smiling face.

However, instead of a smile in those silver eyes, there was a sharp light.

At the end of looking at Yekathrice, who, like her, openly brought up the question that everyone was thinking about but couldn’t bear to say.

Limon calmly opened his mouth.

“Probably one of three.”

“I’d like to know which three you mean.”

“One is that the Holy Lord is a liar who can fool even me.”

“…do you believe Divine Lord Lee?”

I didn’t like that word.

With an expressionless face as usual.

But to Ainsha, who asked in a particularly blunt voice, Limon answered calmly.

“I don’t really believe in her. But at least to my eyes, it didn’t look like the Holy Lord was lying.”

Unfortunately, Limon’s answer made the atmosphere in the meeting room even heavier.

He is Noh Kang-ho, who has lived hundreds of years, is a sword master with superhuman intuition, and a superman with the eighth dragon psionic.

How difficult it is to deceive such a limon.

because everyone knew

That’s why Rose calmly suggested an alternative instead of denying Limon’s feelings.

“Then, the second possibility is that the Holy Lord himself is being deceived by the Constellations.”

“Things like that happen, too.”

Limon calmly agreed.

Just because you believe it to be true doesn’t necessarily mean it is true.

Like a soldier who believes it is a war that will bring peace to the world and causes a massacre at the will of a great leader.

Or like a scholar who only sees one statistic that is favorable to him and instead claims that a hundred unfavorable statistics are false.

No matter who sees it, there are many people who believe that what is wrong is the truth.

And if Johanna had only been fooled by a lie, the whole situation would have been most tidy.

But…

“The last one would be if what she said was true.”

“….”

In the usual pessimistic manner.

However, Limon frowned at Maia’s remark, which was colder than usual.

It wasn’t just that.

That the purpose of the constellations is the salvation of the world.

That absurd claim was in contradiction with the actions of the World Federation, especially the Liberation Brigade.

Especially when I think of the truth about the destruction of the fairies and dragons that I heard from the Fairy Queen.

“It’s not impossible to be true.”

Nevertheless, Hasneti did not unconditionally deny Johanna’s claim.

After swallowing a sip of cigarette smoke.

He vomited deeply and spoke in a muddy voice.

“At least in terms of the fact that the Constellation is divided into moderates and radicals.”

“Do you believe the assertion that the Constellations of the Holy Lord are representative of the moderate faction, and the Constellations of the Liberation Brigade, including the Regressive Lord, are the representatives of the radical faction?”

“Because if there are many of any beings, it is natural for division and conflict to occur.”

“You’re not really wrong.”

As the Red Dragon Princess, who knows war better than anyone else and believes that trouble cannot be eliminated.

To Hasneti’s cold words.

Charlotte languidly agreed.

Even companies that deal with money.

A country for the people.

even the gods.

When three or more gather, it is natural for each to fight for their own power or profit.

Right now, even with the Seven Dragons, each clan couldn’t achieve complete cooperation.

Even more so, it would have been rather surprising if there were so many beings that were as powerful as the constellations, but were really united and moving as one.

Knowing that fact, Limon, who had been immersed in thought for a long time, eventually turned his head.

And now I can give you the most appropriate advice.

Even so, he quietly asked the black-haired girl, who had a heavier atmosphere than anyone else in the conference room, keeping silent.

“What do you think, Princess?”
