Episode 725 God’s Witness (3) The
demonic temple where the battle with the Black Room took place.
Because Ray made magic tools and didn’t properly collect them, his mana was scattered all over the temple.
Among those who passed by, those who were particularly sensitive to mana shuddered at the enormous amount of mana that they felt.
“Hmm.”
“Just…”
“Did you feel it too? It was a really great energy.”
A group of well-to-do adventurers looked around.
When I focused on the senses, I saw that mana was flowing from the demonic temple.
said the sorceress woman in the robe.
“It’s a sign that’s hard to notice. But… strangely powerful.”
Originally, it is common knowledge that the weaker the presence, the less the force of mana.
However, the energy felt within the temple was both secretive and overbearing.
They were curious because it was a type of energy they had never seen before.
“Would you like to go?”
“I don’t mean to investigate the temple at will… but if I think it’s not a good thing, I have no choice but to step in.”
Others seem to agree.
When the decision seemed to be made, they headed for the temple without delay.
The scenery of the temple seen up close was desolate.
A yard that somehow smells of blood and a stone statue that is almost all broken.
The place where the gate used to be was empty.
It was said that the Demonic Church’s position in the kingdom was decreasing, but I couldn’t imagine that it would be like this, so I was even more surprised.
The female wizard frowned at the faint smell of blood.
“Was there a fight?”
“Maybe it was just a sacrifice.”
It was because the Demonic Church periodically offered up sacrifices.
They decided to look around the temple a little more.
yard and outhouse.
The beautiful sculptures were destroyed and spread out haphazardly, reminiscent of ruins.
The woman in the robe murmured while looking at the memorized fragments glimpsed in the bush.
“It looks like it was attacked. If you look here, do you see fragments falling?”
“Really. But it’s a memorization that I haven’t seen around here…”
“It must have been a new Assassin Guild or a memorization I made myself. At this level, it would have been difficult for the temple priests to hold on.”
A fellow prosecutor agreed to that.
“I think so too. It doesn’t seem like something that can be overlooked.”
“But there is something that worries me.”
She looked into the center of the temple.
A presence so weak that you can’t even feel it if you don’t concentrate.
But at the same time, a mass of pure mana was felt in the cabinet, enough to make the whole body shudder.
‘At this level of mana, Circle 5… no, Circle 6 or higher magic would have to be manifested.’
If you use magic, there will surely be traces of mana left there.
Some territories even have secrets that have been passed down from generation to generation in order not to reveal their traces.
However, even with that vision, there was a limit to erasing the remnants.
Such were the 5th circle or higher magics that drew and used huge mana.
And judging from the mana he felt right now, this must have been a great magic on the 6th circle scale.
In addition to that, even mana that is pure enough to be believed to be holy power.
It was hard to think of it as human energy.
Then who?
She said, feeling the mana slowly dissipating.
“Maybe we are seeing a miracle of God.”
“What do you mean by God all of a sudden?”
“I’ve never seen or heard that mana so pure and refined exists. It’s strange that there was no body after being attacked there. If the capital was attacked, the guards couldn’t have stayed silent.”
Her companions also seemed to agree to some extent.
“Well, that’s right.”
“If the temple is destroyed like this, it’s normal for the guards to come in.”
The woman continued, not knowing even in her dreams that the royal knights would have attacked instead of the guards.
“Moreover, even though it must have been a long time since the magic was manifested, the mana is maintaining its shape. Have you ever seen mana this intense?”
“…none.”
“It’s hard to believe that it’s definitely human mana.”
“Yes? At most, if the remnants of magic were at this level, it would have been more tremendous at the time of using magic.”
In other words, it could not have been human magic.
Does that mean that God moved directly?
It was a story that was hard to believe, but they couldn’t help but nod their heads gradually at her words.
It was also because the remnants of mana felt through the skin were too strong even though they were strong.
To the extent that I can’t imagine that this would be possible with human ability.
At first, they couldn’t believe it easily, but they gradually agreed to her words one by one.
“God. So, are we seeing proof of God now?”
“I guess you could say that.”
“ha ha ha. That sounds lucky.”
“This is not the time. If this is really a sign of God, shouldn’t we inform the Demonic Church?”
At the young man’s words, the middle-aged man waved his hand.
“Now, there is no demonic religion left in the kingdom, so where are they going to tell us? Arthur. Is there anything wrong with going out and being punished?”
Demonicism is a dying year within the Kingdom of Gleiman.
After the fact that he was injecting demonic energy into people’s bodies was discovered, it collapsed irreversibly.
If he carelessly helped, he could have been disciplined by the adventurer’s guild.
“Ugh. So what about satellite bridges?
“A satellite bridge?”
“yes. I heard that a new branch has been established nearby.”
“Notifying the Satellite Church of what happened in the Demonic Church…”
“What do you think? We are not priests either.”
I heard it and it is true.
Isn’t it enough to be loved by God just by handing it on?
“Good idea. It may be that we came here with God’s guidance.”
The woman also agreed.
“Then it’s decided. Let’s go to the satellite bridge for a while before we start the subjugation request.”
“yes.”
After looking at the temple for a while, they soon turned to the satellite bridge.

The receptionist, who spent his daily life gathering leisurely information in the royal castle, straightened his posture as soon as he felt a familiar presence.
As always, they were hiding their presence, but seeing them walking in a straight line, it seemed that the other party had already noticed them.
After tidying up their clothes once, the receptionist and Zeke stood straight toward the door.
Click –
the door opens.
Rey, carrying a huge backpack on her back, waved her hand.
“long time no see. I didn’t expect you to follow me all the way to the Kingdom of Gleiman.”
familiar voice.
Seeing his unchanging appearance, for some reason, relief came over me.
Hongyoung bowed politely.
“Reception Committee Hongyeong sees the saint.”
“Cheongyeong sees the saint.”
“Soyeong meets the saint.”
.
.
.
At the endlessly long greeting, Ray finally stuck out his tongue.
“Because I couldn’t see you, I lost more flexibility.”
“Holy Son, with all due respect, courtesy is a serious matter in the hierarchy.”
Seeing his hardened expression makes me feel frustrated.
Their loyalty is already known.
I knew that hierarchical order was important in an organization, but I didn’t want to remain in that relationship with them.
Isn’t that the relationship that has been built since the Holy Land?
As they were together in both happy and sad times, they did not want a relationship that was only bound by formality.
Ray stretched out Hongyoung’s cheeks.
Embarrassed, her eyes widened like rabbits.
“to?”
“This is…”
“Huh.”
The receivers looked at the amount Ray was doing with interest.
Normally, it wouldn’t have been strange to get angry, but it’s really cute to see him wandering about without knowing what to do because he’s the person he’s supposed to serve.
Hongyoung closed her mouth and spoke desperately without disturbing her pronunciation.
“…Saint.”
“huh?”
“Stop it now…”
It is impressive that only the ears are dyed red with an expressionless face.
Ray soon took his hand away from Hongyoung and said.
“Don’t be too rigid. It’s between me and you.”
“…We exist to assist the Holy Son. Even this is a minimal example…”
So-young, who seemed to be the most flexible among them, also agreed with Hong-young’s words.
“Young Hong is right. I think the saint should pay more attention to his position.”
Then Zeke, who had been still, stepped out.
“Do you dare to give advice to Lord Soyeong?”
“This isn’t advice, it’s advice, you idiot.”
“You’re an idiot, that’s something you can’t afford to say.”
now it’s very shitty
When the two of them growled at the mere sight of their eyes, the atmosphere gradually matured as they met their eyes once.
If you’re going to set an example, I’d like you to set it up in this part.
Ray lightly tapped the desk a couple of times.
Bangtan-!
“I have something to say, but are you going to keep fighting?”
Zeke, who was fixing the scabbard, hit the knife.
“I don’t mind fighting. Please tell me I only played with you a little.”
Soyoung also accepted without losing.
“If you don’t tease me like this, I’m a guy who won’t talk all day, so I just accepted it in moderation. Please speak.”
It is a very good sum.
Ray said he didn’t care.
“I will leave the Kingdom of Gleiman soon. First of all, I want to go to the kingdom of Celia, but I want you to leak information before entering the royal castle.”
Among the receiving committee, Soyoung, who is well versed in information procurement, reacted immediately.
“What information?”
“Information about the magic tools I gave to the Kingdom of Greyman. And the fact that I received a letter of alliance in return.”
After explaining that far, So-yeong realized her purpose without asking further.
“I intend to provoke you.”
“okay. The surrounding kingdoms that coveted magic tools would flock to them, and the Black Room, feeling a sense of danger, had no choice but to hurry. Preparations for war are in full swing in the duchy, so now is the right time.”
“Are you really going to be okay?”
It was a guard who was horribly defeated once while in the principality.
It was hard to imagine how much damage would be caused if an all-out war broke out with only a small amount of power in the black room.
Ray nodded.
“are you okay. They probably don’t have the guts to start an all-out war from the start.”
Celia, which holds the maritime zone tightly enough to act as an intermediary trading country, has the Principality of Soleil below it, and the Devon Kingdom and the Glaman Kingdom are located in the area surrounding it.
Even with this much power, it was worth fighting against the Lessian Empire, but if the kingdoms possessed by magic tools joined in, it would be possible to discuss an all-out war with the Black Room.
Looking at Ray’s confident face, she knelt down on one knee.
“…So-Young of the receiving committee accepts the order.”
It was their first opportunity to take the initiative, who had been dragged around by the Heukbang until now.
