Episode 86. This ungodly man!!!
“Do you have any business with our church? “Why are you all gathered together like that?”
“Ah, I came here at the right time.”
The moment when the attention of the Holy Knights, who were just preparing to enter the cathedral, was focused on Ja-seong.
Soon, a flashy-dressed man, who had come across the knights’ ranks as if representing the group, began to turn his grim face towards Ja-seong.
“A warrior of the Meter Church. “Have you been stretching your legs and doing well?”
“… When I asked who it was, I was told, Cardinal Helix, “Get well soon.”
“Yes, this is Helix, the heretic inquisitor and cardinal of the Order of Frigga, the state religion of the empire. “It’s a noble status that’s on a different level from those who serve or are a petty god like you!”
Cardinal Helix shows an authoritarian attitude as soon as you meet him.
It’s not unusual for people in power to be mean-spirited, but the position he mentioned further aggravated the anxiety I felt.
Not just a cardinal, but the Inquisitor himself came by.
Isn’t it obvious what the reason is?
“And the reason I came here was to do my job as an Inquisitor. Now, do you see the warrant with the imperial seal here?”
As if to show that such a clearly predicted situation was approaching reality, he immediately took out a warrant with the imperial seal and shouted to himself.
“Hero masculinity! The entire Meter Church, including you, will be arrested on charges of colluding with the Demon King’s army! Follow me quietly and prepare for the heresy trial!”
“… Heresy trial?”
Seong-Seong lets out a helpless laugh despite the fact that he might be frightened by the coercive words.
Although he clearly revealed with his mouth that he had done something to provoke them, instead of being scared, he just shrugged his shoulders and tried to play tricks.
“You’re saying something strange. “All our denomination does is cook and distribute meals with donations and lend labor for reconstruction work.”
“Are you planning to play a role when a warrant is out?”
“Even if you come with a warrant, if the other person doesn’t understand, you have to explain it properly. If they come to arrest you blindly, should I just crawl around on my own?”
“hehehe, this is why these barbaric things that serve miscellaneous gods….”
Did the self-reflection’s words stir up anger?
Soon Helix began yelling in a harsh voice at Ja-seong.
“Listen carefully, you uncivilized pagan. “The only reason our humanity has been healthy until now is because of the protection of Frigga, who has cared for humanity with infinite love since the beginning!!!”
“It is because of Frigga’s mercy that foolish people who do not have faith in Frigga are able to settle down and live on this land, and that heretics like you are tolerated rather than immediately executed. “That’s it!”
A strong sense of being the chosen people can be felt in the lengthy speech.
Jaseong heard those words with one ear and let them out, but through those words, I was able to guess why someone as big as a cardinal had come to this place in person.
“I don’t know what god you served in other countries, but at the point when all countries except the empire stopped functioning properly, it was as if they lost the protection of God. In other words, you guys who came all the way to the empire are grateful for Frigga’s protection, and have an obligation to support Frigga as well!”
Yes, judging the superiority and inferiority of religions was something that existed to some extent in the original world as well.
However, in this world, all countries except the empire are unable to function properly, so the real power and status of the religious denominations other than Frigga, the state religion, are low.
At best, they only tolerate religions other than the Friga Order to a certain extent for the sake of ‘political convenience’ of preserving the traditions and history of each origin, uniting a certain number of people, and demonstrating the spirit of volunteer service for free.
However, some of the denominations that tolerated this may soon grow in influence, and this expansion of influence may feel like a sense of crisis to the Friga denomination.
As other denominations grow in weight, it also means that the number of believers in their own denomination also decreases.
“In such a situation, instead of showing gratitude towards Frigga, you are not only arrogant and comparing yourself to us, but you are also doing something crazy like worshiping a demon as a saint. “Isn’t that in itself the same as taking revenge on Frigga for her kindness!?”
With Frigga’s famous warrior at the head, the size of other denominations is growing, which can feel quite a sense of crisis.
In such a situation, if suspicions are discovered that the newly revered saint is in fact a demon, they will naturally use that as an opportunity to press the issue.
Regardless of whether it is true or false, the situation can be easily resolved by just inciting and accusing it of heresy.
“… “The saintess is a demon.”
And Ja-seong directly told me that the demon girl I saw two years ago had become a saint.
In fact, there was solid evidence at the point when they came in aiming for that exact point, but despite this, Ja-seong only shrugged his shoulders as if he was rejecting the accusation.
“That’s strange. The only time our denomination showed the saint to other denominations was at a religious meeting held not long ago. Did you come to suspect that she was a demon just by seeing her once?”
“Well, you’re asking the obvious. “You may be able to fool other people’s eyes, but if you think you can fool your own eyes, it is a huge mistake!”
Helix shouted with confidence.
He was filled with emotions, and soon he left the side of the Holy Knights guarding behind him and began to approach Ja-seong.
“I could clearly feel it when I met the woman you brought with me who said you were a saint. “That bewitching woman is not an ordinary demon, but a dream demon with the power to possess people, even if only slightly!”
-Kuduk.
The moment when strength is applied to the shovel on your shoulder.
As if he hadn’t noticed that, Helix rolled his eyes and started shouting again as if he was pushing himself.
“The people at the scene may not have noticed, but you can’t fool my eyes! “The dizziness and ecstasy I felt just looking at that damn b*tch was faint, but it was the same as when I was seduced by the dream witches!”
“hehehe, yes. Everyone else stayed still, but I noticed the aphrodisiac spray coming from a girl who didn’t even know how to suck vital oil… ?”
A low muttering coming from under the helmet.
He raised his free hand and then began to grab the handle of the shovel he was carrying on his shoulder.
“I heard your answer well, Mr. Cardinal.”
The moment when you grasp the shovel with all your might with both hands.
He felt cold there, but Helix had no idea what would happen to him later and was only focused on reporting him.
“In short, it means that he is a ‘pedophile’ who felt that a noble believer, a ‘girl + demon’, was being approached by a being who should never feel s*xual desire, and used that as evidence to bring about a heresy trial. Army.”
“Of course…” . What?”
“You blasphemous pedo bastard!!”
-Quang!!!!!
The handle of a shovel being swung with a shout.
The cardinal’s head fell to the ground after being hit squarely in the face by the attack, and cracks spread throughout the road starting from him, causing the ground to turn over.
“Uh, huh?”
The moment when the mouths of the Heresy Inquisitors of the Frigga Church who were watching the situation opened wide.
In the silence created by that, Ja-seong lifted the shovel that had been buried in the ground and draped the handle over his shoulder.
“A pedo like you doesn’t deserve to live. “Don’t live any longer and be a b*tch, go into the fires of hell.”
None other than the state religion of the empire.
That was the moment when he turned a cardinal, whose status was above that of nobility, into an inquisitor whose job it was to punish heretics.
“aaah!”
The moment they realized that such an absurd situation had occurred in the middle of the city, the paladins began to scream and draw their swords.
“What is this crazy hero doing in the middle of the road right now!!”
“Cardinal! “I’m a cardinal!!!!”
“Punish that damn infidel immediately…” ….”
-Boom!!
A roar that suppresses the commotion.
As soon as the shovel in his hand pressed down on the ground where the body was buried, the soil rose up from him and rained down in all directions.
“Everyone be quiet and pay attention.”
Patter, debris from the road pouring down, and blood and flesh.
The realization that the powerful people of the empire had disappeared without a trace was enough to silence the faithful believers.
“I will cut off the head of anyone who dares to come forward, so from now on, stop talking and only answer questions.”
Of course, since he defined the opponent as clearly evil, he might attack again soon, but in reality, Ja-seong did not show much hostility toward the other Paladins except Helix.
Soon, he asked them while maintaining the position of putting the tip of the shovel in the ground.
“Those of you who followed this bastard to the rally recently, raise your hands.”
“… What?”
“Those who followed, please raise your hands. Like this, huh?”
He is so calm that you wouldn’t think he was the one who killed the cardinal.
The paladins exchanged glances for a moment, then some of them began to raise their hands as if they thought it would be a good idea to adapt to the situation.
“Are you guys there too?”
Immediately Ja-seong looked at them and asked.
“What?”
“Were you excited to see our saint at that time?”
I wonder if he was s*xually aroused when he saw the young dream horse he had brought in two years ago.
“Well, that can’t be possible!”
At those absurd words, the Holy Knights began to scream and shout as one.
“Yes! We are priests! There is no way that we who serve God would feel s*xual desire when we see a girl!”
“What’s more, if the target is a demon… ….”
“But they said this guy sucks.”
The moment when the mouths of the loud knights all closed in unison.
Immediately, Ja-seong carried the blood-stained shovel back onto his shoulder and explained the reason why he had done what he did to the bewildered paladins.
“It would be impossible to be sensitive to the energy of a demon that even you were unaware of, unless you were actually attracted to that girl. “It’s about a girl and a devil, something that no priest with a pure heart should ever feel that way.”
… Hey crazy guy.
I wondered why she revered her demons as saints, but it turns out that she did it for reasons that went beyond common sense than I could have imagined.
“So, without going through a trial, I judged him to be a piece of trash that should not exist in this world and killed him. Is there something wrong?”
But even his ridiculous beliefs, he proudly presents them in front of the Holy Knights.
It is obvious, but there was no way that execution without proper logic or procedures would be accepted as normal.
“Well, that’s what I meant… ….”
“Oh! Hero! “You’ve come to the right place!”
It is also a moment to express the planned backlash.
Soon, believers of the Meter Church who had heard the commotion inside the cathedral came out and showed what they were holding in front of him as if they had been waiting.
“Hero, Helix came and hid for a while. Can I show him here?”
“Okay~! “Let’s just reveal it here without wasting time!”
-Too-duk, tuk.
Congregants coming out of the cathedral repeatedly dropped what they were holding onto the floor, which became a mess.
Jaseong, who opened the enormous amount of data one by one, began to present the contents in front of the Holy Knights as if to show off.
“Come on, brothers, before you rush in, read this first.”
“… This?”
“A man named Cardinal embezzles donations, gambles, and engages in illegal prostitution… …. Wow, there is even a record of receiving bribes from a human trafficking group targeting orphans under the pretext of confession?”
Evidence of all kinds of corruption and injustice committed by the heretic inquisitor, who was supposed to be a candidate for the Pope and suppress heresy…….
It is hard to say that it was just fabricated data, but the details were very detailed and seemed to be largely consistent with real events.
“Yo, the hero’s masculinity. Where on earth do you get all this…….”
“It is easy to save as much as you have committed. “If you try to make it public, it will be shut down as heresy, so it hasn’t been revealed until now.”
The two eyes under the helmet glowed coolly, and their gaze gradually turned downward to the pieces of the cardinal’s body spread throughout the overturned street.
“So, I was wondering when to reveal it, and then, oh my god, that person crawled all the way to me on their own. Wouldn’t it be better to just deal with it without wasting time? “The dead have no words anyway, so attempts at public discussion will not be blocked.”
“Oh, no. Still, if punishment is imposed, it must be after a strict trial…….”
“That bastard’s trial is on its way…. If it drags on and the evidence gets destroyed just because you waited, will you be held responsible? I’m sure you all noticed this while you were talking about this bastard. “What kind of person is this guy and what kind of things is he doing?”
“… ….”
“… After all, what power can there be in low-level people who just do what they are told?”
He used a shovel to knock away the materials hanging on the floor, and gestured at the believers coming out of the cathedral.
Even though he killed a man as big as a cardinal, he did not feel any guilt and was ready to settle the situation.
“I’ll attach someone from our side, so if you’re not part of the same group, take all the materials here and hand them over to the judiciary. “After that, I will take care of it if I get a warrant, whether it’s returning the warrior’s ticket or accusing me of heresy.”
“… Yes yes. All right.”
“Okay, the job is done. Hyosung, let’s go~!”
Seong-seong waves his hand at me and urges me to follow him into the cathedral.
I was a little appalled by the sight of him covered in blood, but in the end I didn’t care and wanted to follow him.
It was embarrassing in many ways, but I still thought it was natural for him to act like this.
I’m just worried about whether or not he can handle what he’s done.
“I’m sorry, Hyosung. “I had to deal with it while you were away, but I was surprised that you suddenly showed me something dirty, right?”
“No, it’s okay because I’m used to it.”
Seeing people die doesn’t last for a day or two, so there’s nothing to be surprised about anymore.
However, this was the first time I saw someone in power, not a warrior roaming a lawless area, die in a law-abiding empire.
“But Ja-seong, even if the cardinal is trash, is it okay to do this?”
“That’s why I made that girl her saint. There’s no way that a bug who feels s*xual desire for a kid who can’t handle aphrodisiacs properly, let alone a regular harvest, is a proper human being. In fact, if you dig up those guys, you’ll find various things.”
“No, but the responsibility is… ….”
“Hey, now that I think about it, Hyosung. “It was too late to ask.”
As I was trying to express my concerns about him, Ja-seong immediately turned to me and asked a question.
“When you see that kid, maybe…”
“Don’t be crazy. “I told you about my preferences several times while we were eating together, but you really forgot?”
My preference is for older sisters who listen well.
No matter how crazy he is, there’s no way he would turn his eyes to a child and do something crazy, right?
“Forget it. “Even though I just left, my memory isn’t that bad, guy.”
The self-reflection of patting myself on the back and moving forward.
As I felt the dependability coming from his back, I felt my worries about him gradually disappearing.
No matter how reckless he may be, beating a corrupt person in power to death without regard for law or authority is something that only a ‘true warrior’ would be able to do.
