Only I Am Immune to Magic - Only I Am Immune to Magic chapter 125
Episode 125. It’s not possible
“Everybody is welcome.”
the next morning. Pope’s office.
Pope Barante greeted the people seated around the table.
At the table sat Aaron and his party, as well as cardinals who looked like the heads of Zeros.
The pope and cardinals acknowledged all their sins and expressed their infinite gratitude to the party who dealt with Belial.
“Your achievements will remain in the history of the continent. All priests and citizens of Zeros… … .”
“I was grateful to hear your warm words. His Holiness.”
As the pope continued to speak, a tall old man sitting next to Aaron made a sharp remark.
Count Bares Arnin.
He is guilty of rampaging the city to bring out the Divine Guard, but no one has ever held him accountable.
He used Markut to issue an emergency evacuation order to the city center and then performed the most spectacular magic he could.
The people who lived in the city were struck by lightning out of nowhere, but it was done under the orders of the Divine Guard anyway, so restoration of the damage was completely up to the Holy See.
“His Holiness. I’m sorry to say, but Zeros almost brought a great disaster to Delor. If you don’t mind, I’d like to talk about it.”
As people’s eyes focused, Bares continued.
His blatant words and actions to put aside useless words and come up with a compensation plan.
The cardinals’ faces contorted rapidly, but none of them expressed dissatisfaction.
The Pope tried to drive Aaron’s party into a corner by risking the archbishop’s life.
A major incident involving even a high-ranking aristocrat, Count Arnin, that cannot be taken lightly.
If the count informed the central nobility of Delor about this situation, protests could come from the kingdom level.
“hahahaha. Strictly speaking, Belial, not Zeros, brought about the disaster. Anyway, it’s true that you subjugated Belial, so the reward is sufficient… … .”
“We are not fools. His Holiness.”
Barres interrupted the pope once again.
“count. Be careful with your speech.”
“This is not the Kingdom of Delor.”
This time, the cardinals also did not hold back and spoke one word at a time.
Of course, Barres didn’t even pretend to hear.
“Everyone here knows that it was the Holy Spirit who brought Belial.”
Even before he was consumed by Belial, the pope, along with some cardinals, plotted to kill the archbishop.
Belial did not do such a thing because of Belial, but Belial came because of the sense of immorality.
“count. There are limits to patience. That I called Belial. Can you take responsibility for that?”
The pope’s face, which had not been shaken by any words, finally contorted slightly.
The Count was about to refute something, but someone sitting next to him spoke first.
“Don’t fool the goddess any more. His Holiness.”
From noble mtl dot com
Nesti glared at the Pope with a hard face.
The pope trembled at the sad blue eyes.
“No matter how much you try to deny it, you can’t hide the truth.”
Aaron took something out of his pocket and placed it on the table.
It was a handwritten order from the pope to Inquisitor Varus, with a seal on it.
“This… Isn’t it His Holiness’ seal?”
“… … .”
The cardinals who did not know the truth looked shocked, and the cardinals who worked with the pope stared at the directive in silence.
“What do you want? saver.”
The Pope finally raised the white flag.
In fact, the moment the Divine Guard took Aaron’s side, the story was no different.
The Divine Guard is the will of the Goddess.
The crime was not small because he tried to discredit the savior who was recognized by the goddess.
“For now, please announce to everyone the crimes committed by the Church a thousand years ago and restore the honor of the Dark Elves.”
Aaron said softly.
The reason this happened in the first place was because of the interests surrounding the Dark Elves.
Until now, it was something that the church had been hiding for fear of losing money, but now it was time to reveal the truth.
“… … Will that be enough?”
“His Holiness!”
“Are you sure you want to do that?”
At the words of the pope, who seemed to have given up everything, the cardinals screamed in horror.
The Pope looked at them and frowned.
“You and I have shown too many embarrassing faces to the goddess. Stop now.”
“… … .”
The cardinals then shut up.
“If there’s nothing more to say… … .”
“And one more.”
As the pope was about to clear his seat, Aaron spoke again.
The pope and the cardinals looked at him nervously.
“Please allow me to use the entire force of Zeros, including the Divine Guard, for once.”
“… … .”
The priests of Zeros, as well as the people watching from the side, opened their mouths wide.
Zeroth is a small city-state, but if you combine the divine guards, paladins, and battle priests, it becomes a force equal to that of a small kingdom.
Right now, Aaron made a statement that he would use the power of a kingdom privately.
“… … May I ask your purpose?”
The pope asked with a face that looked like he had aged 10 years.
Aaron firmly shook his head.
“It’s not possible.”
* * *
After a while.
Pope Barante revealed with his own mouth the error of the church that occurred a thousand years ago, and released the secretly kept data to the world at the time.
And congratulating the party who saved Zeroth from Belial’s beast, Aaron was given the position of honorary cardinal, and the others were given the position of honorary priest.
“Dark elves are not renegades?”
“I heard the pope said it himself?”
“They say they released all the related materials in the Zeroth Great Library.”
“This nonsense… … .”
When the truth that had been hidden for a thousand years was revealed, people in the world were shocked.
Zeroth’s reputation fell into the abyss, while Aaron’s name quickly spread across the continent.
“Is this why we became so famous?”
a few days after the incident. Annex next to the Holy See.
Raast said at the accommodation prepared for guests.
He and the others stayed here for a few days at Aaron’s words to take a rest and go.
“It’s not just about being famous. You should make good use of it.”
“Nothing. He was even recognized as a savior in an unprecedented honorary cardinal position, so there will be nothing he can’t do.”
Rhaast nodded.
In less than half a year, Aaron captured three dragons and three demons, liberated Death Landing, and saved the Kingdom of Zeroth from danger.
This was an unconventional move that no hero has ever shown.
It’s a shame because they’ve been together until now. If they had heard the news from afar, even Rhaast wouldn’t have believed that these achievements were true.
“I’m going to ask the king for a title first.”
Aaron looked out the window and sipped his tea.
Now that winter is over and spring has arrived, the warm sunlight is shining in the room.
“A title?”
Raast tilted his head.
A chivalrous title given by aristocrats is also a title, but Aaron was talking about a title bestowed by the king, not by nobles.
“Well, to rule Death Landing, His Excellency’s support is not enough. At least the Baron should be in order… … .”
“Peacock.”
“… … yes?”
“I’m going to ask for a dukedom.”
“… … ?”
Raast, who was always laughing and arguing, looked at Aaron as if he were a madman.
“Why are you looking at me like that? I’m serious.”
“I’m looking at it with these eyes because I think it’s sincere. No, do you know whose dog the duke is?”
The peacock ranks highest among the five ranks of the human aristocracy, and a peacock with a large land could stand shoulder to shoulder with the king of a country.
“Right now there is no duke in Delor.”
Aaron shrugged his shoulders as if there was anything he couldn’t do.
As he said, there were no dukes in the Kingdom of Delore at present.
It was because there was no land suitable for a duke, and even if there was land, there was no talent capable of governing it.
“It’s not that simple, is it?”
Raast shook his head.
A duke is a special title bestowed upon a founding person who established a country with the king, a vassal the king cherishes the most, or a hero who has made great contributions to the country.
Although Aaron had made great achievements that made his name known on the continent, it did not directly help the kingdom of Dellore.
If it was at the level of a baron, it could be given in the name of raising the country’s prestige, but if you wanted a duke, you had to make an appropriate contribution.
“ball? You just have to stand up.”
“Lord.”
“Ah Okay. Come and see.”
Aaron waved his hand at Raast, who was expressing frustration.
And as he approached, he opened the map against the window frame.
It was a map of the Kingdom of Dellore, as if it had been drawn recently.
“This is Oddhaken, this is Arnin, this is Death Landing. And here. Where I will eat soon.”
Aaron, pointing at the map with his finger, finally pointed to the southwest end of the kingdom.
“how is it? If I eat here, I can be called a public figure, too, right?”
“… … What are you eating?”
Raast salivated at the red marked area on the map.
It was the realm of the high elves.
* * *
The representative trouble of the Kingdom of Delor was, of course, Death Landing, but in fact, there was one more trouble attached to it.
Navik, a small city south of Death Landing.
This city, which houses the ivory tower of the Kingdom of Delor, recently fell into a colony of high elves who came up from the Southern Great Forest.
Delor was angry at the elves who broke the peace and invaded the territory, and dispatched recapture troops several times.
However, the recaptured army suffered from the elves’ fighting style, which involved guerrilla warfare in the dense forest and the circulation that went around Blade Canyon and Death Landing.
After several local battles, it was Delor who eventually raised the white flag.
This is because the damage suffered from continuing the war was greater than the gains from reclaiming Navik.
Of course, they didn’t hand over Navik officially, and they sent letters of protest from time to time, but naturally, the high elves didn’t even listen.
“Why do you want to become a duke? As long as you receive my support, there will be no problem with territorial domination.”
After hearing Aaron’s outline, Bares asked with a nonchalant face.
He made up his mind not to panic at anything Aaron said.
I had finally gotten used to the ways of this young tyrant.
“Now there will be no problem. But it won’t be long before wild dogs aiming for bean curd will come running at you, salivating. It takes a fair amount of strength to stop it.”
Aaron pointed to the numerous territories adjacent to Death Landing.
The owners of the indicated territory were all nobles with strong influence who had their feet in the central aristocratic aristocracy.
“Who covets a land where there is nothing like that?”
Gaos asked this time.
Even though it was purified by Azazel’s death, Death Landing was still a wasteland.
It would take half a year for the energy of the water of life in the Shadow Forest to melt into the ground and start farming, but I wondered who would covet such a place.
“It has been encroached on by demons for a thousand years. And thanks to the recently resurrected Water of Life, he is rapidly recovering his intellect.”
“Isn’t that a fact everyone knows?”
“So that’s a problem.”
daughter-
Aaron threw a purple stone the size of a fist onto the table.
“This… … .”
“It’s obsidian.”
As soon as they saw the stone, Gaos and Bares showed interest.
Obsidian is a special mineral that is properly mixed with mana and magic. It is a magic material that is very rarely found in areas that have been contaminated by magic and then purified.
There were many places where it was used, such as chimera conversion, high-end artifact production, and magic equipment production, but the supply was so short that it was worth calling.
“Where did this come from? It’s just not that expensive.”
Gaos asked as he picked up the obsidian.
Obsidian, like other jewels, differs in value depending on its purity, but this one was so pure that you could clearly see the other side even if you held it up to your eyes.
With such a large size and near-perfect purity, it could be offered as a gift to the imperial family, but it was questionable how the hell it was obtained.
“okay. It’s just not expensive.”
Aaron nodded, picked up the sack that was lying next to him, and spilled it upside down on the table.
rumbling-
Dozens of obsidian, similar to the one Gaos held in his hand, spread out in all directions.
“… … .”
Everyone in the party, including Gaos and Bares, opened their mouths wide.
Aaron picked up an obsidian that had fallen on the ground and placed it on the table.
“Why did I purify Death Landing?”
