Chapter 141 – Where did …

Chapter 139

This is the border town of Diana Kingdom. We safely passed the border of Diana Kingdom and arrived here.

The process of passing through the border zone was the fastest I’ve ever been through. It was because this was the headquarters of the Lunarian Church, so the border guards immediately recognized Saint Cynthia, the saintess of the Lunaria Church.

{ Come right in! }

Well, they let us in without asking our identities. I wondered if this was okay, but Estelle explained it.

“The status of the Church of Lunaria in the Kingdom of Diana is similar to that of the Church of Solaria in the Kingdom of Apollo. I get treated like this when I go to the Apollo kingdom.”

“Aha.”

So now we were in the border town of Diana Kingdom, the so-called Luria Village. It was a bit late when we passed the border, so we decided to stay at an inn in the village…

“…Young man, what kind of woman do you wear like that? As someone who has outlived me, my advice would be to wear too many women in your life…”

“…Not like that.”

I refuted the innkeeper who had a strange misunderstanding and took three rooms. One in my room. One was for Estelle and Celine, and the other was for Elfriede and Saint Cynthia.

The question now is where to put Alicia to sleep.

“You will sleep with me tonight.”

“Ugh, huh?”

“Abel, are you trying to lay a hand on Alicia as well~? There is no such thing as a demon♡”

“No, the handling has been strange since last time!”

When I screamed out loud, Estelle, who had been teasing me, smiled and said,

“It’s a joke♡”

…Don’t joke with me. When people hear it, they misunderstand it.

“…A young man, even a child like that…”

“No!!”

Look at that, you misunderstood! I looked at Estelle resentfully, but she only chuckled as if she was having fun.

Estelle asked me with her smile faded.

“But are you really going to sleep with Alicia?”

“I will.”

Estelle and Celine could have done it, but for her, it’s more spacious and better to sleep with two rather than three. I can’t entrust it to Elfriede.

So it was best for me to take him with me. That’s what I was thinking, but Estelle said in a slightly regretful voice.

“I see…”

…It’s obvious that I’m sorry. To be honest, I also want to sleep with Estelle and Celine, but I notice it. It was because the two of them, Elfriede and Saint Cynthia, had joined together.

Since the situation is the situation, I think it can’t be helped. I gently stroked Estelle’s head and whispered softly.

“Let’s sleep together later.”

“…You promised?”

“Yes.”

Estel and Celine quietly withdrew. As they went up to the room and I was about to take Alicia upstairs, Elfriede said.

“…Abel, are you going to sleep right away?”

“Yes?”

“Wouldn’t you like to swing your sword for a while? It looks like this inn has a backyard as well.”

Since it is a small inn in a border village, the structure is not much different from ordinary houses. So there was a front yard and a back yard, and it was a proposal to practice for a while in the empty back yard.

“Is that so?”

It was an offer that I had no reason to refuse. It was because recently training with Elfriede was fun.

If I hadn’t been an opponent to Elfriede in sparring in the past, after learning swordsmanship, I could compete to some extent.

In terms of simple technique, Elfriede was superior to me, so the opponent’s record was still behind. If I roughly count, I think I’m doing about 10-19.

…I counted and lost a lot.

“Then leave your luggage and leave. Don’t wait.”

“Yes.”

I took Alicia into the room and unpacked her things. Then she said Alicia.

“I, too, want to take a look.”

“Huh?”

“Because being alone is boring…”

I asked Alicia.

“I’m going to fight with the holy sword, is that okay?”

“Isn’t it swinging at me? So it’s okay.”

“…Yes, then.”

What’s wrong with that guy who freaked out just by showing the holy sword? There was no reason for me to lock her up in her room, so I took her Alicia out into the backyard.

There was Elfriede, who had come and waited for me beforehand. Her blonde hair, which seemed to shine brighter today, was blowing in the wind.

“Ah, Abel. You are here.”

“I brought Alicia because she wanted to take a look, isn’t it okay?”

“…Yes, it doesn’t matter.”

After telling Alicia to stay away from her to avoid getting hurt, I drew her holy sword. In recent training, of course, neither of them carried iron swords for sparring, so they sparred with holy swords.

But this is worth doing again. Since I was a great swordsman, the fact that I had an advantage over Elfriede’s rapier made up for the difference in skills to some extent. Thanks to that, I was able to win at least 10 wins.

Of course, the rules are the same as the usual sparring, but we had to be very careful as they were a real sword. It’s a big deal if you get hurt.

It was a sparring where a momentary distraction could bring great danger, but we did not hesitate to engage in sparring. After all, what we’re going through is worse than this.

I pointed the holy sword at Elfriede and said.

“I’ll go.”

“As much as you like.”

Elfriede always gave me the first attack. Of course, having the right to take the first shot doesn’t necessarily give you an advantage… But having the right to take the first shot meant that there would be an opportunity to collide at the maximum speed I could.

But Elfriede always reads my movements. That meant that my unblessed speed was within her eyes. Even now.

Chaeeng!

“It’s a bit faster.”

“…Really?”

I’m glad it’s increased. Still, it wasn’t enough.

…It should be enough to be invisible to Elfriede. That way, no matter what enemy comes, you will be able to overcome it.

#

The Dalian ended with Elfriede’s victory. In the end, Elfriede’s trick was properly caught. I got 1 more…

“You worked hard, Abel.”

“I need to practice putting tricks between attacks, too.”

“Not bad. It also works well against knight-type monsters.”

“Ooh.”

I guess so. The fighting style of knight-type monsters is similar to that of real human knights. I should keep in mind

Then Alicia called me.

“…Ah, Abel.”

“Why?”

“Why are you the demon lord…So you are trying to defeat your father?”

Why do you want to subdue the Demon King?

“That way the monster disappears.”

“…Something is misunderstood. Defeating my father won’t make the monster disappear.”

“Huh?”

“My father doesn’t create monsters himself. He only makes us, the queens. These are the ones you call ‘Mother’.”

…Ah. Does that mean that if you want to make the monsters disappear, you have to kill all the mothers?

“But anyway, the need to subdue the demon lord doesn’t change. If Mother doesn’t want to increase.”

“…That’s true, but I said it in case you didn’t know.”

“Yeah, thanks for letting me know.”

From noble mtl dot com.

I asked Alicia one more question.

“So you’re saying that killing the demon lord won’t stop the activities of the mothers?”

“There is no reason for that. We are not connected organisms… We are separate organisms.”

“Really? I thought it might be because he gave orders directly in his head.”

“That is only the father’s ability.”

So even if you subdue the demon king, you have to find and kill all mothers. Or vice versa

The annoyance has multiplied.

“Let’s go in first. We should go to sleep, wake up tomorrow.”

“Oh, I got it.”

“I do.”

As we took Elfriede and Alicia back to the inn, the innkeeper said as he tidied up the shop.

“Did you fully relax your body?”

“Yes, thank you for renting the backyard.”

“It’s okay since you are the only customers anyway.”

“Heh heh.”

Since it’s an inn job in a border town, it would be difficult to do business unless you’re an occasional visitor like us.

Suddenly, I looked away and saw the back of the innkeeper’s hand. There was a tattoo on his hand as he wiped the window with a clean towel.

“…!”

I hurriedly grabbed the innkeeper’s wrist. Then he looked at me with a bewildered expression.

“Go, suddenly something?”

“…Elders, what is this?”

The tattoo on the back of the old man’s hand was a painting that made him feel deja vu. It was a black spider. It was a tattoo reminiscent of the ‘Black Pandinus’, a group that distributed magic stones and traded slaves in Athens and Bonaparte.

Of course, the animals were a little different. Their tattoo was a scorpion, and this one was a spider. However, it bothered me that they were both venomous arthropods and, of course, that the tattoo was a “Black” Spider.

Spiders don’t usually make a good impression on people, so there’s no reason to get them as tattoos.

“What?…Oh, this tattoo? This is the symbol of the Church of Adelia. I am an Adelian.”

“Yes?”

Cult of Adelia?

I was a little taken aback by the name of the church I had never heard of, but Elfriede explained it next to me.

“Goddess Adelia. She is one of the Six Lords of this land. She is the goddess who presides over chaos.”

“…Chaos?”

“However, it is difficult to say that it is a good scene, as it is managed. Because of that, the church itself is true…”

Elfriede stopped talking about her, and she came closer to me. It’s a bit burdensome when you suddenly approach me, Elfriede.

She whispered in my ear.

“…Close to heresy.”

“Yes?”

There was no time to panic at the sound of Elfriede’s breath touching my ears. It was because the word ‘heresy’ came to me that impressively.

Elfriede added an explanation.

“Because the doctrine is not normal. Perhaps because it is a church dedicated to the goddess of chaos, its doctrine is chaos itself.”

“…The symbol of Adelianism is the black spider?”

“I guess so. I didn’t even know that.”

…A black spider, and a black scorpion. Aren’t there too many similarities?

I would believe it if Black Pandinus copied the tattoo of the Church of Adelia and only slightly modified it. It’s similar to the point where he wears his tattoos to indicate his affiliation.

First of all, I let go of the innkeeper’s wrist. And talked

“Sorry for the rudeness. I was mistaken because the tattoo was similar to the one I saw.”

“Oh, I see. It’s okay, you can.”

People seem kind, but I can’t believe that they are from a denomination whose doctrines are not normal. Originally, people who believe in pseudo-religions seem fine on the outside…

I set aside my uneasy feelings and went up to my room. While climbing the stairs, Elfriede asked me.

“Abel, do you think the Church of Adelia has something to do with the Black Pandinus?”

“…Did Elfriede feel that way too?”

“A bit. It’s not like they dare to show their affiliation with tattoos, and there are also similarities between tattoos.”

“For now, let’s take care of each other.”

“I got it.”

And the next day, I couldn’t help but sigh.

“…Where did you go?”

Estelle, Celine, Elfriede, and Saint Cynthia, who were sleeping in another room, all disappeared.
