Episode 47
The demonic energy covering the woman’s eyes completely disappeared.
The blackened eyeballs returned to normal human eyes.
She looked at Iden. My eyes started to get red. I looked down at my child and let out a silent cry.
The woman was not blind to begin with. It was because of the terrible magic.
Even though she was wary of Iden, she constantly repeated her gratitude and apology.
Aiden slowly opened his mouth.
“I only cut down heretics and demons. Convert to the Baranches religion. Bacheksar. This is the name of the god who saved you.”
Aiden said and picked up a rock from the floor.
He imbued it with divine power and handed it to her.
A warm, burning glow. The trembling eyes captured that warmth.
There had never been such a bright light in her life. Even the night castle built with tears of blood only faded before the noble, shimmering divinity.
Aiden spoke in a calm voice.
“Walk straight ahead for a while and you will see a horse. Wait there for people in white clothes. Show them the stone and they will protect you. There will be plenty of food in your backpack, so you can eat as much as you want.”
The woman held the stone tightly and stared at Iden. The eyes were fluctuating.
Iden asked.
“What is your name?”
She hugged her baby and opened her mouth.
“… … “Bah Bache
.” “Bacheksar.”
Aiden raised his knee, which was boiling.
Jude could not help but worry. Atonement made with words without blood or pain was not recognized except in special cases.
Aiden was in Jude’s mood . He noticed.
“I guarantee it in my name.”
Siron nodded.
“I am a witness.”
Jude, who was conflicted for a moment, swallowed his voice. He slowly raised his arm and made the sign of the cross.
“Bacheksar, you The hero burned away malice and gave birth to a lamb. Please bless me mercifully.”
Shiron also closed her eyes and prayed.
Iden showed the woman the direction she should go. The prohibition, including the demonic energy, had been lifted, so she was free. The
woman walking away kept lowering her head. Soon, she was out of sight. When they disappeared, Iden turned his gaze to the private house.
He then glanced at the Aspects.
“There are exactly three days left.”
Three days later, students from the city’s magic college came to this land of screams. The purpose was to practice magic against people. Their visit At the same time, the Holy Spirit’s operation also begins.
Iden took out a document from his pocket.
“We have arrived earlier than expected, so please review the target of each person and the overall plan once again.”
The parchment that Iden unfolded had someone’s personal information recorded in detail. . It was a record handed over by the intelligence unit.
Garvu Antimola. A nobleman of the principality and a student at the University of Magic.
His speech, family, mannerisms, behavior, hobbies, sexual preferences, relationships… etc. It contained all personal information. Even though
I studied in the carriage for 15 days, it was completely perfect. It was difficult to imitate him.
The appearance and voice could be realized with the power of the bandage, but these parts had to be prepared separately.
The Aspects also took out documents and leaned their backs on the mound.
The raised terrain was suitable for hiding their bodies.
The Aspects were gods. They skipped the record book and rechecked the plan that Aiden had revised.
They had been preparing for the assassination for a long time and had completely studied the person to copy.
Siron, who had been examining it for a while, glanced at Aiden. Then he cautiously opened his mouth. .
“Lord Iden, no matter how much I think about it, the separate escape route bothers me. It’s not efficient.”
Jude also looked towards Iden. It seemed like he agreed with Siron’s opinion.
Iden replied,
“I said before that there was something to check. If you have to, you guys should leave first.”
Siron shook his head.
“You can’t do that. For our denomination, even if we succeed in our mission, it is a loss if we lose respect. Can you tell me in a light way? What are you doing?”
It was a matter related to Kadak. I couldn’t reveal it.
“It’s impossible. However, if things go well, we may be able to save the residents.”
“But our mission is to assassinate a key figure… ”
Aiden nodded.
“So, after Confucius was executed, he was involved in an escape operation. The top priority is assassination.”
Shiron thought for a moment and said,
“Can’t we just move along with the governor? We just need to tweak the plan right after the assassination.”
Originally, the Aspects were planning to escape by land and Iden would jump into the sea.
There was a reason.
If the expected situation comes, all of those residents will be liberated.
However, they did not have the ability to pass through the Giant’s Forest and escape to the empire on their own.
They needed someone to lead them. Since Iden could not take charge, it was the role of the Aspects. This is why Siron and Jude’s escape route was diverted to the land.
Of course, the Aspects I didn’t tell them.
Because they hate infidels. However, I figured that if a situation were to come, they wouldn’t ignore the desperate residents.
Of course, I wasn’t sure. Even if the giant ate the residents, the saints might pretend not to see it. .
Aiden was ready to make such a sacrifice. If only he could solve the essential problem of ‘the scream’. But the
one who was lucky was the nine-tailed fox.
Saya dried up the seeds of the giants and paved the way for the residents to escape.
Of course, the beast It wasn’t something I did with awareness.
It was just a very consequential stroke of luck. In any case, there was no reason to let the Aspect escape to land.
Iden glanced at them.
“It’s a separate mission from the Master’s orders. Will you still follow it?”
It sounded like a joke to the saints.
Their superior was the messenger of Bacheksar. They could give opinions, but if they had to criticize them in conclusion, they had to criticize them.
Moreover, given that the mission of the church was their top priority, there was even more reason to protest. There was none.
Shiron answered with a somewhat puzzled look.
“Of course I should follow that…” ?”
Jude and Goth also glanced at Iden.
“I will revise the escape route. Sir Iden.”
Iden nodded.
“Do it that way.”
*
The day of the adult magic field experience study at the University of Magic.
Garvu Antimola was in a much better mood these days.
It was because the devil ‘Sophon’ had made a direct contract with him. Sophon was a high-ranking devil served by the Antimola family.
Although he was not an archdemon like ‘Gusian’ worshiped by the Trapelga Dukes, the level of magic that Sophon bestowed was sufficiently high. Sophon is a descendant of Gusian
,
the primordial despair.
Serve him. The future of Garvu was bright. Even his family praised him as a born Kirin child. Having
even received the Antimola family’s secret book, he had a smile on his face due to the anticipation of testing a new magic spell and the excitement of improving his skills through sacrifice. It was
a drawbridge connecting the artificial island and the Land of Screams.
Students were crossing the bridge under the control of a professor from the University of Magic.
Garvu’s height and size were larger than anyone else’s. Enough to rival Aiden’s.
Therefore, large crowds of people also obstructed his view. He couldn’t do it.
He walked in line and saw the Land of Screams.
Low-income people were doing meaningless labor over and over again. Their screams and cries reached the drawbridge through the desolate fields. A
small female student who was walking alongside Garbu asked him: .
“How about Garvu? Are you really carrying something that looks like a rock? Does it look difficult?”
Garbu made a grumbling noise and slightly tilted his head.
“Well, I’m not sure. I think it would be much better if I laid thin needles on the ground. I guess it just feels okay. There’s nothing special.”
The woman burst out laughing.
“Are you stupid? Then you’ll die right away. We need to make it last as long as possible. The point is the amount of despair that can be extracted as much as possible from one lowly person.”
It was difficult for Garbu to sympathize with her opinion.
“Of course, the amount is also important. But the 3rd tier and above are determined by the ‘quality of despair’ anyway.”
“Supply is the problem. If quality is prioritized, the low-income people will die quickly, and won’t their reproductive power not be able to keep up? To begin with, there aren’t that many magicians who can use the 3rd rank or higher.”
The female student’s words were a straight argument. However, there was a loophole.
The moment Garbuu was about to refute, the professor focused her attention.
“Now, now. fist! Leave the small talk later and focus now!”
The professor slowly turned his head and looked at the students.
“This is probably the first time for most of us outside the city. I completely understand the excitement, and it’s okay to be a little excited. However, unexpected accidents should not occur. The reason we conduct training individually is because we trust you. Don’t disappoint me.”
The students of the University of Magic answered loudly.
The professor continued again.
“I will tell you some precautions. They never touch anything other than the one low-income person paid per person. They are the pillars that support the principality. Always respect and cherish. If there is a student who behaves selfishly, we will impose penalty points.”
The cries of cadets were heard from all over.
Garbu also frowned.
“Professor, that’s an old guy anyway. What’s one? I heard my seniors got two or three last year.”
“It’s not the professor’s fault. I heard it’s a policy from above, so what should I do?”
“Yes, you are always right.”
The professor looked at the time and nodded.
“Alright then, gentlemen. So that you can spend the next six hours worthily.”
The door blocking the passage clanked upwards. Students began moving in a line.
They waited for their turn and moved one by one to the Land of Screams.
How to rush out . Because there was no one, they seemed like the intellectuals of the principality. The professor looked at them and smiled with satisfaction. As soon as
Garbuu stepped on the red-brown ground, his eyes turned in all directions.
The guy who looked the most lively was his target.
A bent old man crouching on the bare ground? No. The girl who built the pagoda and then tore it down was also very thin. As she turned around
with a frown on her face, she saw a man scooping up dirt and filling up the sea. He
looked quite sturdy, so it wasn’t bad.
Before anyone could intercept her, she ran straight up and shackled the man’s neck. He filled it and pulled it tightly.
With a crash, he fell down. The man screamed but tried to get up to continue working.
Garbu ignored his actions and grabbed the chain again.
The man being dragged to the floor was himself. As if he knew his fate, he cried without stopping.
Feeling satisfied, Garvu walked to the makeshift training center set up in the Land of Screams. The
training center was the residence of low-income people.
Even the only resting place where they ate and slept for only 4 hours a day was a terrible torture chamber.
Garbu chose a house that was falling down.
Just as he was about to go in, he heard the sound of something falling behind him. He
immediately turned his head and saw a man carrying a huge rock alone.
He was enormous and had a lively face. He didn’t seem to be human. The strength was really attractive.
Garbu took off the man’s shackles and kicked him. He
then slowly approached the large man.
He was the same size as Garbu. He had the best experience of being at eye level with someone. .
He opened his mouth wide and laughed.
“I decided on you.”
Without hesitation, Garbu fastened the shackles around the man’s neck.
The taste of his hand as he snatched them away was extraordinary. He swung open the door of the private house and pushed the man in first. Before it is taken away by someone.
He felt very lucky these days.
Because he signed a direct contract with Sophon, inherited the family’s secret book, and obtained a higher quality offering than anyone else.
He grinned and slammed the door.
The space was closed on all sides. Garbuu was left alone with Aiden.
