Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1362
Only Noblemtl
1362 times. I received a request, but it is not a religious order.
Elio laughed bitterly at King Raoul Brosnan’s words.
right.
Considering the current war, it is not a wrong choice to worship Ushas Undra as a god, as he provides practical help to the southern kingdom.
However, Ushas Undra’s supply of new weapons to the Southern Kingdom is not to help the people of the Southern Kingdom.
He just hopes this war gets a little more intense and lasts longer.
If you follow him, it may seem good at the moment, but you will be plunged into deeper despair.
“I think Your Majesty has forgotten what I said a moment ago?”
King Raoul Brosnan tilted his head.
“Ushas Undra’s purpose is not the victory of the Southern Kingdom, but the continuation of this war. If this world is devastated by endless war… … . “In the end, the evil spirit Shaitin may descend, creating a greater chaos that humans cannot handle.”
“Did the priests of Manaptras say that?”
“no. “For now, it’s just my opinion.”
“Why should you worry when you have the creator god Mana Phrass and his loyal paladins? and… … .”
The King glanced around and continued speaking.
“It is better to continue this war than to be dominated by the Imperial Army. “Nothing lasts forever, so won’t it end someday?”
Elio had nothing to say.
The King seemed to be more afraid of ‘losing the war’ than ‘the future of this world’.
“All right. “Then just tell me where Magenta, the black market manager, is.”
“Why are you looking for him?”
“If he is Ushas Undra, I will kill him.”
King Raoul Brosnan was shocked at the idea of killing God.
“I’m sorry if it hurts him, but I can’t tell you. As you know, the Southern Kingdom desperately needs his help.”
“And what if this world is destroyed?”
“The evil god Shaitin will be stopped by the creator god Mana Prass.”
‘Hey man, wake up from your dream. If that were possible, Mana Prass wouldn’t have called me.’
But Elio couldn’t bear to say those words to the king.
That is because it is also a blasphemous and heretical claim.
Elio, who was looking at the king with complicated eyes, spoke calmly.
“Let me ask you one last question. Where is magenta? If possible, try to answer it yourself. “You know that I am a magic swordsman, right?”
“no way… … Are you planning to use mental magic on me, the king of Adria? If that were to happen, wouldn’t it be a credit to the southern kingdoms?”
King Raoul Brosnan’s angry words became a little shorter.
As the king’s expression hardened, the atmosphere in the central hall became cold for an instant.
The eyes of the great nobles who were chatting were focused on the head table.
“It’s not mental magic. Should I just tell the truth? Of course, there are no side effects. All you have to do is experience the mind and mouth playing separately. how? Do you want to experience that?”
The King spoke while gritting his teeth and glaring at Count Elio Lagoa.
“There is no need for that. “I’ll give you the answer you want.”
King Raoul Brosnan did not completely believe Count Lagoa’s words that there were no side effects.
I was thinking of just telling you rather than revealing that I was under a mental spell.
“He is currently in the Islands at the request of the Southern Kingdom.”
“When you say it’s a system, it’s too broad in scope.”
“I am meeting with the magic tower owners except the three great magic towers.”
“The magic tower owners?”
King Raoul Brosnan looked at Count Lagoa with a sullen expression.
Looking at his expression, it seemed like he was debating whether to say more or not.
Elio waited for the king to speak.
This is because pushing further may have the opposite effect.
As if he had finally decided, King Raoul Brosnan opened his mouth.
“Hmm! This is something that is somewhat related to Count Lagoa, so I will teach you. We have received intelligence that the imperial army is being reorganized around musketeers. “It looks like the first thing to happen is to change the swordsmen into riflemen.”
“Is that possible during a war?”
“We are reorganizing the troops in the imperial territory, not the expeditionary force… … What could be difficult? “All we have to do is reorganize the mainland troops and exchange the expeditionary force and the mainland musketeers.”
“ah!”
An exclamation flowed from Elio’s mouth.
Until now, I thought of myself as too centered on the expeditionary force.
There were far more troops left in the imperial territory than the expeditionary force.
The idea was to train those units into rifle units and then replace them with the expeditionary force.
“But what does that have to do with me?”
What does it matter to you whether the Imperial Army’s army turns into musketeers or not?
At that moment, King Raoul Brosnan’s expression changed slightly.
If it was unpleasant just a moment ago, it now looks interesting.
“The crown prince plans to arm the empire’s musketeers with Exitium. He said he would give Exitium, which had been given only to one or two special operations units, to all riflemen. “It could be said that something catastrophic happened to the knights and wizards.”
“Does the Empire have that much money?”
“Who knows what’s going on? However, it is true that the Three Great Magic Towers have begun mass production of Exitium.”
“Why is Magenta meeting with the magic tower owners?”
“Why would you do that? If the Three Great Magic Towers start selling Exitium in earnest, the other Magic Towers will slowly go down the path of extinction. So I asked them to meet the alienated magic tower owners and persuade them. Sell Exitium to the Southern Kingdom. Magenta is carrying out such an important mission. “The Count told us to pass on that magenta.”
“I apologize for that. but… … .”
“That’s it. For my part, I just hope Magenta is not Ushas Undra.”
King Raoul Brosnan disliked Count Lagoa’s pursuit of Magenta, but he sympathized with him to some extent.
If he got even slightly involved with the evil god Shaitin, it would be a problem later on.
The dynasty may change after the war ends.
It was better to follow Count Lagoa’s words.
To be honest, it wasn’t something I could refuse just because I was against it.
“We thank His Majesty the King for his cooperation.”
“If you would be grateful, would you mind doing your best for our ally, the Southern Kingdom?”
“I’d like to, but right now, the priority is to break the evil Shaitin’s plot… … . sorry.”
“It’s a conspiracy by the evil god Shaitin… … . What is the Manaptras Church doing that the Count is doing? Have you ever received a request from the church?”
“I received a request, but it is not a religious order.”
“That’s bizarre. That’s not something an individual can do, no matter how grand master he is. Anyway, I understand. “Now that things have come to this, can I ask you a favor?”
“If there’s anything I can do, I’ll do it.”
Elio responded positively to maintain good relations with the southern kingdoms.
“Unless Magenta is Ushas Undra…” … . “I hope you can help the Count at least while he is in the islands.”
“I have no intention of doing anything related to war.”
“Oh, I guess you misunderstood. “I asked you to protect him from death.”
“I have urgent work to do, so I don’t have time to look for him. But I will not let him be killed in front of me. “That’s all the help I can promise you.”
“That’s enough.”
King Raoul Brosnan nodded with a satisfied face.
Although it didn’t start well, it could be said to be a satisfactory result.
‘Now I just have to pray that Magenta is not Ushas Undra.’
King Raoul Brosnan let out a long sigh.
We have done everything that humans can do, and what remains is the realm of God.
‘Mana Ptras. If Magenta is Ushas Und, the Southern Kingdom will fall. Please just stop something like that from happening.’
The great nobles, who were watching the King and Count Lagoa, resumed their paused chat.

Londinium Empire.
Jung-gu, the capital city of Petropolis.
The main temple of Manaptras Bridge.
Almatio, the only priest in the main temple, looked at the priests with a solemn face.
“His Holiness said that he recently heard a strange story from a great nobleman. The gods were involved in the war between the Empire and the Southern Kingdom. “Does anyone know anything about it?”
Priest Protaus shook his head.
At that time, Chief Priest Deftero, who was tilting his head, spoke cautiously.
“Mr. Almatio. I think I heard something similar to that a while ago. At that time, he thought it was just nonsense and ignored it. But if His Holiness would even mention it… … . “Isn’t this a serious problem?”
“I guess Chief Priest Deftero knew. Why didn’t you report that to me? “I couldn’t say anything in front of His Holiness and just listened.”
When Priest Almatio spoke reproachfully, Chief Priest Deftero quickly made an excuse.
“sorry. It sounds so absurd… … “I thought it would die down soon.”
Then, Chief Priest Protaus asked Chief Priest Deftero.
“What kind of content is it that makes you say it’s nonsense?”
“It is exactly as the priest said. It is said that the gods are behind the war between the Empire and the Southern Kingdom. It is said that the evil god Shaitin used humans to take revenge on the creator god… … .”
“The evil god Shaitin has been sealed forever beyond Scutum (the northern ice wall). By what means?”
“that is… … It is said that the home of the evil god Shaitin is not Tameon beyond Skutum but the Abyss. That’s why there are monsters in the Abyss… … .”
“That’s crazy. Abyss is the abode of Ushas Undra. But how could the evil spirit Shaitin be there? It’s a heretic’s theory! “Who on earth would say something like that?”
In the Manaptras cult, Ushas Undra is one of several gods who follow Manaptras.
The statement that the evil spirit Shaitin exists in the Abyss, the abode of Ushas Undra, was a gross misconception.
As the chief priest raised his voice, Priest Almatio lightly tapped the table with his palm.
“quiet. This is a rumor that came from the southern expeditionary force. Now, it is said that whenever the great nobles of the system gather, they talk about this topic. “It appears that the imperial family hopes that the church will clear up the rumors.”
Then Priest Protaus asked:
“If it’s a rumor that came from the expeditionary force, wouldn’t it be quicker for the imperial family to sort it out?”
“There is a problem with the original source of the rumor. The first person to say that was Count Elio Lagoa. They say they explored the unexplored areas of the Abyss… … “It seems like it had a bigger ripple effect.”
The priests were speechless when they heard that it was Count Elio Lagoa.
When I think of the horrific incidents and accidents committed by Grand Master Count Elio Lagoa from the North, the sound of heresy was raised, but it was also accepted.
When the noisy priests became quiet for a moment, Priest Almatio said, ‘Tsk!’ and clicked his tongue.
Of course, it’s not something you can’t understand.
However, it’s a bit annoying to see that they can’t even open their mouths when there’s no one involved.
“Priest, send an order to Paladin Metatron to investigate Count Lagoa. “It has not been confirmed that he spread heretical theories, so please be polite.”
It was a special request added because Metatron was cruel to Ethan.
“yes.”
Priest Protaus did not say anything.
Metatron is a strong man who is somewhere between a Sword Master and a Grand Master.
Since he uses divine power, he is a magic swordsman by worldly standards, and there is a reasonable argument that his actual skills are higher than that of a grand master.
Since I have no chance to meet Archduke Knauf, this is still only a vague guess.
Therefore, there is no one suitable for Count Lagoa’s investigation.
I was a little concerned about Metatron, who was particularly harsh when it came to heretics, but I had no doubt that he would handle himself well since he was his opponent.
