“Everyone stop!”
Dio turned his head to the person shouting urgently.
‘Athes? Wasn’t Kalko taking you there?’
Artes, who was running hurriedly as if he was in such a hurry, came right in front of Dio and fell off in an unsightly manner.
“What are you doing?”
“Captain…”
Artes seemed to have made up his mind, but the sight of his broken nose bleeding was quite unsightly.
“Kalko, is that bastard gone? “I didn’t go with you, did I?”
“That…”
Ates seemed a little angry at Calco, but was a little embarrassed at Dio, who treated him the same way.
Even if he deserted the battlefield because of Calco, Ates was a person who abandoned his comrades and ran away.
In fact, wasn’t he afraid of the warlock so he couldn’t come forward?
Ates was prepared to get a slap for pointing this out, but Dio’s attitude, which seemed completely unconcerned, made Ates’ eyes turn red.
Of course, Dio, who had no way of knowing how Ates felt, was only relieved that the second son of the Bertio family was now here.
“Kalko… no, it’s okay. Please speak carefully. “It would be better for you to talk than for us.”
Dio pointed to the Luna Church, which was making a fuss.
“You ignorant people, how dare you stand in the way of someone!”
The current scene was complete chaos.
Everyone was exhausted, and Telzia did not attend to the injured or collect the dead.
They were even arresting the villagers one by one who had lost their souls due to being Mana Eater by Luave.
Everyone, regardless of whether they are elderly or children.
Among them were children with whom Ates often played, so he came out indignant.
“Oh my! Damn you guys! “Can’t you solve it right now?”
“…It’s the church’s job. The Bertio family must no longer interfere in our affairs.”
One of the Holy Knights pushed away the charging Ates, and the Vertio knights who saw this did not stay still.
“Master Ates!”
“I know who he is!”
The knights who joined the Ox as a latecomer immediately looked at Ates and rushed towards the paladin to protect his safety.
“People enchanted by black magic must be evacuated to the Holy Kingdom. “This means they are no longer civilians.”
“Anyone wants!”
“These are the guidelines of the Luna Church.”
“Ox is the land of the East! Don’t you know that what happens here is the Bertio family’s business?”
“Since the opponent is a warlock, the intervention of the Luna Church takes priority. Even if it is the Bertio family.”
To the paladins and priests dispatched from the Holy Kingdom of Atra, Telzia’s shout was not just an excessive force.
It doesn’t matter to them whether the villagers of Oaks cooperated with the warlock or were merely victims.
This is because it was an order from the Holy Kingdom of Atra to place those who were innocently harmed by warlocks in the category of heretics.
“Didn’t you guys see it too? “Haven’t you seen the magic of Luave yourself!”
“It doesn’t matter. The saint’s words are the doctrine of the Luna Church. “We just carry out orders.”
“It wasn’t the saint who ordered it, but the inspector!”
“…The inspector is the saint’s representative.”
How on earth was he brainwashed? Ates was speechless due to the firmness of the Holy Knights from the Holy Kingdom.
Dio watched this and sighed.
I tried it just in case, but Bertio didn’t even flinch from his second son’s words.
‘I knew a long time ago that it was tight and inflexible, but…’
Dio recalled the time when he joined hands with the Luna Church to fight against the Demon King.
Even back then, Dio stuck out his tongue at the paladins who unconditionally followed the words of Saint Kaleina.
If a saint tells them to take their own lives, they are the ones who will obey that order.
If you are an ally, it would be nice to have blindly loyal subordinates, but if you confront them as enemies, there is no answer.
“Catch that guy first! That rotten thing!”
Dio looked at Telzia who was making a fuss and pointing at him.
Fortunately, the knights Attes and Bertio were blocking the gap between them, so the paladins did not rush in easily.
They were always ready to capture Dio.
‘What happens if we fight the Luna Church now?’
The casualties of the Ox Allied Forces due to Luave were more than half.
However, the priests led by Telzia only healed the paladins with their remaining divine power.
Thanks to this, the Paladins’ power is superior to that of the Bertio family’s knights.
However, even if Dio fought the Luna Church head-on here, it seemed unlikely that he would lose.
Even though he is exhausted, that number is not enough to be a problem for Dio.
Plus, there’s Calliope who killed Luave, so what’s there to be afraid of?
However, although it is easy to kill, it is difficult to subdue it.
No matter how hostile Telzia is, they are priests.
It was better to persuade them than to kill the priest and settle the matter later.
‘It’s complicated. Still, rather than running away like this…’
Dio took a close look at one person in the midst of the confrontation between the knights and paladins that had reached a critical situation.
A person who is restless and unable to stand on anyone’s side.
He was none other than Conrad, the head of the Holy Knights of the Eastern Diocese.
“Lord Conrad!”
Dio called him without delay.
Then he was startled and looked at Dio, who had called him.
“Do you really think the church’s actions are right?”
“….”
During the fight with the demonic beasts, Dio understood Konrad’s personality.
Unlike the clergy of the Holy Kingdom, he is not a person whose religious beliefs border on brainwashing.
A person who possesses a lot of divine power, but strangely, his faith is not strong and he is realistic.
Even because of Conrad’s presence, Dio was unable to kill the Luna Church in front of him.
This means that at least one person in the group is normal.
‘It’s best to suppress them without killing them.’
Until the continent learns Luna’s true nature, excessive actions must be avoided as much as possible.
The crime of murdering a priest is a very dangerous thing.
In the end, only Konrad is the one who can capture Telzia in a just cause here.
‘He tends to avoid responsibility, but that doesn’t mean he’s irresponsible for what happens…’
Dio approached Konrad, who was still hesitant, and opened his mouth once again.
“Aren’t you in charge of this place? You can choose. “Act on what you see and feel!”
“Whew-”
Conrad sighed.
He is a person who pursues an easy life.
However, I couldn’t ignore the events that occurred here just for my own sake.
No, on the contrary, I would feel uncomfortable if I evaded responsibility and went back.
Because he was the leader of the Holy Knights, but before that he was a human.
Sreung-
Conrad put the sword stained with the blood of the demon beasts in his belt and opened his mouth to the paladins.
“Everyone, lower your weapons.”
“Lord Conrad!”
Telzia shouted at Conrad’s remarks.
However, Conrad did not back down from Telzia’s words this time.
“Inspector Telzia! The person in charge here is me. We killed the warlock Luav here and there are no more enemies. “This is my judgment.”
“….”
In response to Konrad’s resolute will, several of the paladins and priests who had risked life and death in this fight also lowered their weapons.
“Iik! Don’t be funny! This is treason! How dare you go against the saint’s orders!”
“If you don’t listen to me with this nonsense, I will enforce it by force.”
“Just the leader of the Holy Knights of the Eastern Diocese! “If you can, do it!”
“Arrest Inspector Telzia for disobeying orders!”
Half of the paladins who followed Telzia’s orders from Conrad followed his words.
This was because they were also impressed by Dio’s group who were active in this battle.
The problem is the holy knights and priests who were dispatched to the east with Telzia.
They stood on Telzia’s side until the end, and soon a fight broke out between the Luna Church, which was divided into two groups.
“Help them!”
Artes also did not stay still.
He instructed the knights who were still able to move to help Conrad.
“Hold Telzia!”
“How dare you do something like an eastern flutter!”
Puck! Puck!
Craddangtang!
The two camps quickly developed into a gang fight.
The good news is that they did not use weapons because they had no intention of killing each other.
Thanks to this, the crude fistfight between the paladins and knights made the arena even more chaotic.
“Tsk, just put the restraints on me and leave.”
Dio, who was watching their fight, grumbled about Calliope, who was with him just moments ago.
She drew a magic circle on the floor and disappeared in an instant.
“Dio. No, boss. I will take responsibility for this. “Why don’t you leave?”
Ates approached Dio and spoke to him.
“That’s not a bad choice, but wouldn’t it make them look more suspicious?”
“Don’t worry. The captain protected Ox. “I saw firsthand the extermination of warlocks.”
Ates tapped his chest hard as if asking him to leave it to him.
“We will do our best to protect the captain from the Luna Church as much as possible.”
“I know you’re Bertio’s second son, but…you ran away from home.”
Artes spoke confidently to give his own trust.
However, contrary to his intentions, Dio could not hide his distrustful expression.
It cannot be said that Ates has no influence, but it is true that he does not seem to be very trustworthy considering his position within the family.
“…Of course, I don’t think they will necessarily listen to me running away from home and causing accidents. but! “The head of the family doesn’t like the Luna Church very much.”
Ates said, thinking of the head of Bertio, that is, her father.
The reason why the Luna Church’s power is smaller in the eastern region than in other regions is also because of Bertio’s headship.
‘Indeed… if it is Bertio who was uncooperative with Ates’s words and Luna from the beginning.’
Dio thought that Artes’ recommendation to leave immediately was not a bad idea.
All the errands here have already been completed.
Ates is responsible for and defends everything that goes beyond the eyes of the Luna Church.
‘Even so, I don’t think we can easily put that mess to rest.’
Dio made a decision as he saw Telzia’s group gnashing their teeth and making a mess.
Aside from impersonating the Moonwalker of the Luna Church, if you encounter additional members of the Luna Church while possessing the power of the sun, the problem will increase.
Rumbling!
The moment Dio was about to say goodbye to Ates, the ground shook and a storm of mana raged around him.
“What is it?”
“Could it be another warlock?”
The knights and paladins who were fist fighting also stopped their actions due to this tremendous energy.
And amazing things began to happen in the places they focused on.
Wow –
a huge arch door created in an instant out of nowhere.
The arch door opened and fully armed knights began to walk out.
They were all wearing fancy blue cloaks, and on their shoulders were lion-shaped brooches that appeared to be made of silver.
“First Knight Commander?”
“Even the 3rd Knight Commander! “What about here?”
Bertio’s soldiers each shouted at the appearance of a knight commander rather than an ordinary knight.
Among the knights who were each giving off tremendous force, there was one who boasted an overwhelming presence.
Among the knights wearing armor with the lion symbol engraved on it, there was one who boasted an overwhelming presence.
“father?”
Artes opened his mouth as he looked at the dignified man walking forward.
Not only Ates was surprised by this, but Dio was also surprised.
It was surprising that the head of the family of Bertio came in person, but I was once again surprised by Calliope, who appeared escorted by the so-called king of the East.
A magic circle created by Calliope.
It was clear that the magic circle had summoned that arch door.
‘Whew, was the reason you were late to call them over?’
Dio sighed as he saw Calliope, who noticed his gaze, playfully waving her hand.
I guess I won’t be able to plan to leave.
The good news, though, is that Telzia can’t go on a rampage anymore since the head of the family has appeared in person.
‘It’ll be solved pretty easily.’
