Episode 29

Carlson

Cecilia followed Rael’s words faithfully.

She ran straight to the Zenon Guild where the knights were gathered to track down the demon.

“Uh… where did everyone go?”

However, when Cecilia arrived at Zenon’s Guild, the knights were already gone.

Cecilia looked around and asked a nearby villager about the knights.

“Hello, my lord. Have you seen where the knights who were nearby went···?”

“Oh, your highness. The knights were rushed off somewhere a few minutes ago.”

“I see. Thank you.”

Cecilia slumped her shoulders.

Even without that, I’ve only shown the shameful appearance of the church to Rael, and if I can’t take the paladins with me, I won’t be able to face them.

She looked around in her own way, but still, the knights were nowhere to be seen.

“oh···!”

As I was wondering what to do, I suddenly started to feel a disgusting magic.

That’s where Cecilia had just run to.

‘The demons have appeared again!’

Instead of running away like before, Magi was running around.

It was clear that a fight had begun.

‘Rael and Carlson are fighting together.’

Cecilia headed straight to the empty lot where she had been.

I don’t know how strong Rael is, but Carlson was a Knight of the Silver Cross.

Although my skills are lacking, if I have your blessing, it will be of some help.

Hwaaaaak-!

The disgusting smell of magic grew stronger.

Cecilia ran into the empty lot, out of breath.

The first thing she saw in the empty lot was Rael, poking through the numerous magic and magic circles.

“La, Lael!”

Carlson was nowhere to be seen, and Rael was fighting the demons alone.

Cecilia used her blessing on Rael in a hurry.

But the blessing did not fall on Rael.

“uh···?”

He broke through the magic and cut off the demon’s chest without any help from the blessing.

Cecilia just blankly watched Rael’s battle.

‘You’re taking down the Lieutenant Demon all by yourself…?’

The demons resisted until the end, unleashing their magic, but Rael eventually defeated the demons without harming a single hair.

It was literally an overwhelming fight.

Cecilia turned her head and checked the demon’s horns.

Cecilia, who faithfully followed the teachings of the church, could tell that it was a mid-level demon.

Even though Cecilia had no fighting ability, she knew how amazing it was to kill a lieutenant demon all by herself.

‘Lael is the captain of the guard… but how come he is so strong?’

The Lieutenant Demon was not something a single guard could kill alone.

At the very least, a knight from the Knights of Carmen or the Knights of the Silver Cross, preferably a high-ranking knight from those, was needed.

No, they won’t be able to put up such an overwhelming fight.

Chook-

Cecilia gulped as she watched Rael cut off the demon’s neck.

She didn’t know how to act in this situation.

At that moment, Rael turned his head.

Cecilia cautiously made excuses as soon as her eyes met Rael’s.

“Ah, ah···. Lord Rael. I, I didn’t see it on purpose···.”

Blink. Blink.

Cecilia blinked and waved her hands around in embarrassment.

Rael, who was watching the scene, opened his mouth.

“Father Cecilia. Where did you start?”

Rael’s voice was strained because his head still hurt.

Cecilia began to tremble when she saw Rael like that.

“Oh, from the middle. Lord Rael, destroy all of the Demon’s magic…”

“Tsk, that’s it, you’ve seen it all.”

Rael clicked his tongue in regret.

The fewer people who know their own strength, the better… but here comes another one.

‘But still, Cecilia is the next saint. She’s guaranteed to be good.’

After you become a saint, why don’t you just ask for a place in the church?

Besides, from what I’ve seen so far, she’s been a bit tight-lipped.

There’s no need to worry about it.

Chook.

Rael pulled out the sword stuck around the demon’s neck.

Cecilia shivered as she shook off the unpleasant purple blood.

She had guessed where that sword would be pointed···.

“Sir, dead men cannot speak, right? Yes, I understand.”

“···?”

Rael looked at Cecilia, who was saying something out of the blue.

“Lael-nim’s power is something that should not be known. I have heard of it. The Imperial Knights of Carmen secretly distribute knights to patrol the civilian population… Now that I have been caught, I will die.”

“··· What did you say?”

“Well, that’s fortunate. Mr. Rael is a good person… I believe he’ll end it without any pain….”

Cecilia shut her eyes tightly.

Could this also be guidance from the god Gaia?

If I was going to die anyway, I wanted it to be as painless as possible.

‘What the hell are you talking about?’

Meanwhile, Rael put the sword he had bled out of back into its scabbard.

And then he looked at Cecilia.

She closed her eyes and waited, imagining strange things on her own.

I don’t know why you are doing this to me.

‘Do I look scary by any chance?’

No, it isn’t.

Clearly, Teacher Sarah and Sister Rayzel said, ‘Rael, you are the most handsome’···.

Reina told me not to be a jerk, but that’s out of the question since she’s an elf. Gent said he was handsome too…

Is everyone fooling me?

While Rael was thinking.

Cecilia cautiously opened her eyes to the sword that was not approaching.

I thought I was going to die right away, but strangely enough, it didn’t hurt.

And looking at Cecilia who was opening her eyes, Rael raised both his hands.

“Whoa.”

“Gyaaaaaaah!”

Cecilia immediately squatted down, covering her head with both arms.

The sight of it fluttering about made it look like an ostrich hiding with its head buried in the ground.

Looking at that sight, a smile came out.

Seeing how my shitty mood quickly improved, I realized that was also a talent.

“Lady Cecilia, I have no intention of doing that, so please open your eyes.”

“··· Is that true?”

Cecilia peeked her face out from between her arms.

She slowly let her guard down as she looked into Rael’s eyes.

“Yes. What kind of person do you think I am? Chapter 10, verse 2 of the teachings of the church. ‘A believer should not turn away from a sheep in need.’ Don’t you know?”

“Ha, but Lord Rael is of the Imperial Knights…”

Cecilia couldn’t hide her embarrassment.

It would have been even stranger if it weren’t for the Imperial Knights.

What kind of guards hunt demons alone?

Cecilia couldn’t understand it any more.

“Not the Knights Templar. Well, I don’t think you’ll understand, but they’re like hermits.”

“A hermit···?”

Cecilia swallowed and nodded.

I don’t know what it means, but I thought it was really great.

“Ha, you shouldn’t laugh while crying.”

Rael smiled at Cecilia’s blank expression.

Thanks to Cecilia’s antics, my hot head quickly cooled down.

“Lael, did you cry…? Oh, by the way, what about Carlson…?”

“I didn’t cry. But I feel better thanks to you, priest. Let’s go soon. I have work to do.”

That bastard was also responsible for making Carlson like this.

Rael lifted Cecilia up from her crouching position and urged her to walk faster.

Marco, the commander of the Silver Cross Knights, frowned as he looked at the corpses of the demons.

40 lower class demons.

Although the force here was part of the Knights of the Silver Cross, it wasn’t difficult to kill about 40 of the lower-level demons.

The problem is that the number 40 is too high to have accidentally invaded the capital.

‘There is something about this that I don’t know about.’

As a knight of the sect, he had no interest in politics or private power struggles.

But if the believers were harmed in this way, he could not just sit still.

As a Knight Commander of the Silver Cross, I had to make a strong protest.

“Marco-sama, I’ve cleared out all the magic around here.”

“The head is still there. Let’s gather the scattered knights and continue searching the surrounding area, leaving out the injured.”

Marco shook his head.

It is not the way of the demon race to have only lower-ranking demons.

There must be a lieutenant demon tribe leading them.

Marco led the knights and began to chase after the lieutenant demon.

However, time was delayed in an unexpected place.

This was because one of the knights who was acting alone was captured by magic and was melting.

Because it was a serious injury, a priest was needed immediately, but since this was District 4, a high-ranking priest could not be called in immediately.

Eventually, Marco, the strongest in the place, drew out his divine power and injected it into the paladin.

“Captain! We’ll take care of the treatment, so you go after the demons!”

Leon, an adjutant of the Knights of the Silver Cross, said.

The Knights of the Silver Cross present did not have the ability to track down the lieutenant demon.

“···No, just wait a moment.”

Marco shook his head at the adjutant’s words.

It’s true that Marco is the only one who can chase away the demons, but he is also the only one who can save the knight whose body has been consumed by demons.

As important as killing the demons is to save the Knights of the Silver Cross.

‘I should have aimed for the captain first… I made another mistake.’

Marco.

His weakness is that his eyes roll back whenever he sees a demon.

After killing all the demons I saw, my head finally cooled down.

“First of all, I’m going to maintain my equipment. Don’t worry, I’ll kill the demons with my own hands no matter what happens.”

Marco gave the order and focused on healing the paladin.

First, I had to save the person in front of me.

“Sir, someone is approaching from over there.”

At that moment, a man and a woman came walking towards us from the other side.

The woman was a priest, and the man was the prosecutor, Rael, whom we had seen at the church earlier.

‘···Demon?’

Marco frowned as he watched the man dragging the demon towards him.

“Keugh. Haaah···. Gasp. Why was I lying down?!”

Even the seriously injured knight survived the critical moment.

Marco, who had handed over the treatment to the other knights, stood up and approached the couple.

“Did you kill Lieutenant Majok yourself?”

Marco looked over the corpse of the demon that Rael had dragged in.

It was the lieutenant demon who judged that he had run away.

“Yes. One of the demons ran away, so I followed him and took care of him.”

“You two just took care of the lieutenant demon?”

“Yes. I can’t see where the knights are.”

Lael put the demon he had been dragging down down in front of Marco.

The demon that had died not long ago was still leaking magic energy.

‘··· Did this man catch the lieutenant demon?’

Marco looked at Rael.

The magical power felt was certainly ordinary, but he did not show the look in his eyes typical of the weak.

Don’t be impressed by the strong, don’t cower, and don’t pretend to be strong.

Just make eye contact and try to figure out what the other person is thinking.

This was the characteristic of the strong.

“Thank you for taking care of the demons. The church will reward you. I will put my name on it.”

Marco made the sign of the cross and thanked his benefactor.

As the Grand Master of the Knights of the Silver Cross, I am grateful.

“The Knights’ damage···.”

“··· hmm?”

“What about the damage to the Knights?”

Rael asked cautiously.

Even though I knew I shouldn’t have any expectations, I couldn’t help but have some.

Because Carlson’s body was not in Kuchelen’s arms.

“1 dead. 2 seriously injured. Considering we dealt with 40 demons, this is a good result.”

“··· Ha. Shit. You fell asleep talking like it was a good achievement.”

But the result was the same.

Rael clenched his fists without realizing it.

It seemed as if the thread of reason that had been briefly connected because of Cecilia was about to break again.

“Hey you! How dare you swear at the Commander of the Silver Cross in front of such low-level insults…!”

“It’s getting warmer!”

Rael’s fists were shaking.

Uncontrollable anger boiled up from within me.

“Ugh···.”

The adjutant approached Rael, and Leon flinched in surprise and took a step back.

He instinctively reached for his scabbard.

‘Wh, what kind of life is this···.’

However, Leon, looking into Rael’s cold eyes, could not bring himself to draw his sword.

His senses, honed through long experience, were screaming.

Die.

The moment he draws his sword, he dies.

Leon froze in place, feeling his jaw drop.

“You, the commander of the knights.”

Rael continued to spit out words, his gaze fixed on Marco.

It reminded me of my days as a street bounty hunter.

Even though he was the commander of the knights and all, I felt like I couldn’t stand it if I didn’t say a word.

“The person who should be the one to protect the Knights Templar more than anyone else…. He was distracted by the demons in front of him, missed the lieutenant demons, and caused the knights to die. Is that a good result? Is that what you mean?”

It is human nature to show courtesy even to a person you have never met before who dies.

A member of the same order died because of his own fault.

But you’re saying that it’s a good result?

“If you are a true knight commander…! At least, at least… you should take responsibility for at least one knight under you…!”

Rael gritted his teeth.

I remember the demon with Carlson’s face writhing in pain and cursing.

Carlson must have died like that too.

The knight who returned to his beloved hometown would have died buried in the magic without even being able to set foot on the orphanage where he grew up.

“······ sorry.”

Marco, seeing Rael’s face, quietly lowered his head.

When Marco, the Grand Master, bows his head, it means that the Knights of the Silver Cross bow their heads, and that means that the Order bows its head.

The knights behind him could be heard exclaiming in surprise, but Marco felt guilty as he said.

“Ha, haaah··· What the fuck···.”

The strength drained from Rael’s body as he received the apple.

I wanted to draw my sword and start a fight right away, but that wouldn’t change anything.

Because Carlson isn’t coming back anymore.

“He was killed instantly by the surprise attack of 15 lower-ranking demons. Although I ran as soon as I heard the sound… Yes. This is also an excuse. I am truly sorry.”

Marco was the commander of the knights.

The role of the leader is not to take the lead and cut down the demons.

A being that unites and leads the Knights.

Although he knew that saving the Knights of the Silver Cross was important, he prioritized killing the Demons.

He forgot his role while killing the demons.

Marco realized his mistake thanks to Rael.

“··· 15 lower level demons?”

And Rael felt something strange.

Apparently, Kuchelen had buried Carlson in the magi and killed him.

What about the raid by 15 lower-ranking demons?

“Coolook, kekeke. Huh? Brother Rael. What are you doing here?”

At that moment, an indifferent voice was heard from behind Marco.
