Paladin in Dark Fantasy - Paladin in Dark Fantasy chapter 138

Episode 138 .

Deep in the night, on the east coast of the Sanctuary. It was a polar night, but the beach was bright.

This is because the divine light consecrated with white sheep floated on the sandy beach and the water surface.

Unlike usual, it was full of people.

“You fools! Would you step on the Demonic Mantra with that? Grab this and run! Swing it!”

“I can’t afford to rest! Greg, while you rest, demons keep multiplying! Time does not wait for you!”

Military training was in full swing. The first unit to be put in for the 1st landing operation, the Dawning Corps. They burned their fighting spirit day and night.

The roar of the flying dragons crossed the night sky, and the halo of the Paladins melted the darkness.

The mermaids were preparing for an amphibious assault, and the elves were remodeling supply ships and transport ships using the World Tree.

Same with Ain. The Heilangs were engrossed in the maneuver strike rehearsal.

As such, the Dawn Legion was composed of many races. Joint training was essential.

Saya watched them silently. Sitting on the edge of a cliff with blank eyes.

whispered softly.

“…for what reason, like that.”

At the same time, a voice came from behind.

“The reasons will be different for each person.”

Saya turned her head. The uninvited guest who appeared through the bushes was Yuriel.

The saintess slightly bowed her head.

“sorry. Did you interrupt?”

“Rather than that, since when have you been there?”

Saya didn’t notice at all.

“It must have been three hours.”

Having said that, Uriel pointed to his own green cloak.

The shadow of the world tree. It was an artifact that completely erased the wearer’s presence. It only activates when stepping on grass.

Uriel added.

“His Holiness sent me to avoid the devil. But, I used it to spy on Yeha. sorry.”

Saya looked straight ahead again.

“Since you’ve seen your weakness, why don’t you try biting it like a beast?”

Yuriel came and sat down next to Saya. Their hair fluttered in the wind.

“No, not the first time.”

“what?”

“When the moon is red, Your Excellency always visits this place. You look at the sea quietly, or sometimes you cry silently. Both today.”

Saya let out a laugh.

“So, you visited me every red moon night? It must have been quite enjoyable.”

Uriel shook his head.

“I thought it would, but it didn’t. He looked so lonely, I just wanted to sit next to him.”

Saya said with an expressionless face.

“Who sympathizes with whom, it’s funny.”

“Right. His Excellency is already sitting next to His Holiness.”

There was silence for a moment. Uriel pointed to the troops being trained.

“What are you so eager for, right?”

Saya didn’t answer.

Uriel continued.

“Some struggle for wealth and glory, others for fame, and some for their convictions. For different reasons.”

Then he looked at Saya.

“Isn’t it love for Your Excellency?”

It was correct. The reason Saya was with Iden was nothing but love.

Saya opened her mouth.

“So are you. I am deceiving myself because of my faith.”

Yuriel smiled and nodded.

“Maybe. Faith is just like that. Wealth, fame, faith, and even love. You can weave in the name of faith. Religion is also the best way to package desire.”

Saya rested her chin.

“I don’t think that’s what a saintess would say.”

“It is. And you know what?”

Saya didn’t really respond.

“His Holiness must have the same thoughts as me. Even though he is a god, he does not see religion as more than a means.”

Saya, who had been silent, let out a dry voice.

“that’s right. You, me, those are just tools to Iden.”

Uriel drew an ambiguous smile.

“It’s a bit off-putting… but it’s not wrong in that it’s used for the will of His Holiness.”

“There are no words beyond that.”

Uriel looked at the troops.

“Do they think so too? It’s a tool.”

“The sword and shield of God, you talk so well.”

“There are many sincere people. But, there are as many masks as there are. Everyone believes in God, but very few humans give their lives for God.”

As confirmed by Uriel in the past, people’s driving force was mostly desire.

Faith was often an excuse.

“Your Holiness knows all of that. That’s why we don’t force our faith, but rather stimulate our desires.”

Yuriel saw the sanctuary in both eyes.

“Look here. He gave the sea to the mermaid, the volcano to the dwarf, the forest to the ain and the elf, the unknown to the dragon, the cause to the human, and the civilization to the giant. You made each of your wishes come true. Also, it was built so that it could only be enjoyed by His Holiness.”

This race did not leave the sanctuary. Because there was no place more than here. Also, in the center of the empire, there was still racial discrimination.

Only the sanctuary was a free city and a special district.

said Uriel.

“He is a very clever man. I don’t force it, but I can take it back, so I put it in everyone’s unconscious. That is why no one goes against His Holiness.”

She looked at Saya.

“Maybe the Sanctuary is just a sample? In that fertile demonic realm, all races will live together. His Holiness is showing it as a sanctuary.”

Iden was presenting a justification for participating in the war to other races.

The Divine Force Field of the Demonic Realm is destroyed. It was weak. Because it was a pretty distant future.

Another reason to unite the continent was needed. That was coexistence.

Rather than eradicating all races and recapturing the demonic realm, this would be much more efficient.

In the original game, it is determined by the user’s choice.

In this episode, Iden chose coexistence.

Saya smiled.

“It’s for the sake of a great cause, so you want me to understand? sorry but i’m not interested Even a tool like yours, I wish it were just a little bit more special. That’s it. today······,”

Saya nodded and sighed.

“done. I don’t know why I’m talking to you like this.”

Uriel shook his head.

“That is not what I want to say.”

Her eyes darkened seriously.

“You are always smart, but only clumsy with Saya-nim. Do you know why?”

“You must have no experience with women.”

“No, because I am sincere in love. Like other people’s beliefs, if the relationship with you was viewed only as a means, His Holiness would have used that feeling much more skillfully.”

Saya stared at Uriel without a word. Uriel smiled lightly.

“I don’t know what happened today, but I am sure of one thing. Didn’t His Holiness openly hurt you?”

I hit a nail directly in my chest. The despair of having killed Iden with my own hands. It left a lasting scar in my heart. will never be erased The subject who planted such frustration was also Iden. The sense of betrayal and disappointment was indescribable.

I cried so much that no more tears came out.

Yuriel examined Saya’s expression and nodded.

“He probably intended to shoulder his faults and bear your anger with his naked body. Even if you remain a sinner. I believe so.”

Saya, who pondered for a moment, stood up from her seat.

“I don’t know. No matter how you wrap it up, I don’t want to see your face for a while.”

Uriel drew a calm line.

“Yes, you have to show me.”

Saya looked down at Uriel.

“What do you mean…”

Then he shook his head.

“no.”

said as he turned around.

“Just remember one thing. You say you don’t want to break? If you keep denying and ignoring your feelings, the results will be obvious.”

“Don’t worry about me. I have already reserved my seat.”

Saya paused for a moment.

“okay? Wherever you are, do your best.”

“Yes, then go in carefully.”

Uriel stayed there for a long time.

Aiden was sitting on the bed, looking at the silver bottle.

stuff that fell from the sky. It was a lunar artifact.

The dragon god, Belphegis, was locked in a thought stone and said.

“Do you know what it is used for?”

“Roughly.”

“It’s the golden palace of Nakru.”

In a word, it was the tears of the moon. It was an artifact that completely erased memories, and it was difficult to obtain.

“Your mother must have manipulated the extinction timeline as well.”

With this item, Saya’s painful memories could be erased.

Since the phenomenon of ten tails remains, Geumgyeong Nakru would be the best solution to the current situation.

Aiden nodded.

“I guess so.”

“What do you do when you know everything? Hurry up and go find ten tails.”

Aiden put the silver bottle into his bosom.

“Don’t use it.”

As a dragon god, I couldn’t understand it.

“Are you serious?”

“I mean it.”

“The wounds in the heart are not easily erased. Nakru could be cured, but how?”

“I just hate writing. That’s all.”

“The possibility of control is much higher.”

“Already decided.”

“Somehow, is there a better use?”

“If you look for it, you will find it.”

“under! Oh, uh-huh.”

Aiden looked out the window.

“I will ask for forgiveness. After that, feed them according to Saya’s choice. Say no more.”

I thought it was pursuing extreme efficiency, but now it’s a little different. The dragon god was frustrated, but just kept his mouth shut.

I’ll take care of it.

just changed the subject.

“Whatever it is, aren’t you almost done with the preparations? I also got ten tails.”

“The foundation has been laid. I plan to advance the departure by half a year.”

“I skimmed through the outline, but it turned out that the first restoration was a Kyu-hwan system. The superheat system would be advantageous in many ways.”

First of all, the superheat system was geographically closest to the sanctuary. Occupying it would make supply and transportation much easier.

Hana Aiden chose the Kyushuan system, which required a little more voyage.

Chiron, Kadak, Murciella. because of these three. There were other reasons, but they had the biggest effect.

Also, since the sea god was recruited, there was no great difficulty in sailing. The waterway that Shaylan manipulated will safely tow the allied warship to the Devil’s Landing.

In a word, the best route could be tailored to one’s taste.

Aiden gave a rough explanation of the situation.

Of course, there was no way that the Dragon God of Mango Jijwa didn’t know.

“Nevertheless, the fact that superthermal systems are better doesn’t change. If I had chosen the Kyu-hwan line, the advance guard I just mentioned would have played a pretty important role.”

“It is like that.”

The dragon god groaned.

“The rest was plausible. As for the Dragoons, you’ve already formed an air raid unit. How long has it been since the dragons arrived? Anyway, you humans are quick to act.”

It was true. The number of knights who succeeded in communicating with the dragons continued to increase.

Aiden’s unexpected event. I was very happy to be able to operate an air raid unit for the first landing operation.

Since the leader of the dragoons is Bentham, there will be no mistakes.

Aiden opened his mouth.

“All initiative is with us. An amphibious operation will always succeed if it succeeds.”

Demons cannot cross over to the continent, and no information is handed over.

It was because the Demonic Church was eradicated.

“the problem is······”

The moment the dragon god was about to say something, a black figure flew in and sat on the window sill.

“His Holiness, please forgive the rudeness.”

He was a member of the Aspect Intelligence Unit.

Aiden looked at the shadow.

“What’s going on?”

It was rare for the Aspect Intelligence Corps to report directly to Aiden.

In the midst of feeling uneasy, In-young said.

“Nine heads floated away in a box. After checking their identities, they turned out to be members of the Aspect Execution Squadron. It looks like it was sent from the Devil’s Realm.”

Three years ago, the Aspects, including Shiron, headed for the Demonic Realm first. will be them

Aiden hurriedly raised his upper body.

“Where are you?”

“Survey Corps barracks…”

Before he could finish his words, Aiden’s model disappeared.
