Chapter 446: Fragments
My harassment towards the three nobles went better than I expected, and Sylph told me about it as she held her sides with laughter.
?Fufufu, I wanted to show you. That old elf who lost the Spirits’ blessings. He was trembling while they camped out for several days.?
?Well, it wasn’t even a retaliation for the attack, but I think I’m feeling slightly better.?
The little bit of information about Earl Hordia as told by the Spirit…… just that really small bit was refreshing.
At any rate, there was no direct damage from Earl Hordia, but because the attacks on the barrier to invade the Sanctuary were mainly done by Earl Hordia’s subordinates, it felt juuuust a little bit refreshing.
?So, what happened to the two from Samandour??
?I heard that the Governor of Wedgefort was troubled considerably by those two.?
If I’m not mistaken, they were Earl Sechnal and Earl Vautarc. During their stay in Wedgefort, they seem to have done whatever they pleased, and the Governor was greatly burdened by entertaining them.
?Fufu, those two were also considerably panicked. Well, the carriages they were forced to buy for lots of money in Wedgefort were safe, so they were still in a better position compared to that elf.?
?The Lomarian fort wasn’t that far, after all. They’re doing better than Earl Hordia whose carriage broke down <em>for some reason> at the halfway point to Yggurle Kingdom.?
Earl Sechnal and Earl Vautarc planned on using the route from Lomaria Kingdom to Triaria Kingdom for their return trip to Samandour Kingdom. I didn’t think it would take morethan five days even with a normal horse-drawn carriage to get from Wedgefort to the fort at Lomaria Kingdom’s border. Actually, I haven’t been on a normal carriage in a very long time, so I don’t really know off the bat.
?For the time being, I will have the Spirits around Takumi keep watch.?
?Thank you, Sylph. I won’t be careless either.?
It was almost nothing as punishment for attacking to try to kill me and make Sophia and the others as slaves, but as a commoner who had no interest in count ranks, I could do nothing but harass them.
I wonder if this would be enough.

After the collapse of the Divine Empire of Sydnia, the once devastated country was being revived under the initiative of the Trination, the alliance of Valkyra Kingdom, Lomaria Kingdom, and Yggurle Kingdom.
In the former Divine Empire of Sydnia, there were still a few people who believed in the Light God Faith.
Even in the former Sydnia, there was a church that existed at the border.
The building was extravagantly large, speaking of its former prosperity.
However, the inside of that church was abnormal.
The fact that they were not allowed to join the escape into the Demon Continent, the people gathered here were all lower ranks within the Light God Faith. However, while that may be true, it did not mean they were not encroached by miasma.
After the collapse of the Divine Empire of Sydnia, it was a series of hardships for the believers of the Light God Faith. When the support ran out from the head church in the imperial capital, the churches built in cities and villages lost offerings too.
Until now, the priests who exploited the people grew resentful.
It was such a time. The priests who gathered to flee to the borders were carrying what they consider a holy relic from the Demon Continent with them.
It was a fragment containing sinister magic power.
The boss of the dark guild ?Moonlight Owl?, Forbach, got one of them, the fragment which was the wicked reason for the creation of the Black Ogre.
If they were normal people, they would not be able to maintain their sanity from the miasma and that sinister magic power.
However, the people encroached by miasma feel something sacred from those fragments.
Was it just a coincidence or an inevitability that those fragments reached their hands?
Before Takumi and his companions knew it, the seeds of calamity were beginning to sprout.
Silently, slowly, and with certainty……
