The Half-Puny Priest Hopes To Retire - The Half-Puny Priest Hopes To Retire chapter 219

219 – Life Is a Flower. Love Is the Nectar of the Flower. (6)

”That’s not possible.”

Even at first glance, those firm words contained an unusual level of hostility.

A disgusting thing that should not be touched.

A line that must not be crossed.

Pandora’s box that should not be opened.

There were many examples that came to mind, but none of them felt like they were enough to fully express the ominousness that pervaded the area.

”Sorry. No matter how much it is, we cannot allow that much.”

The warrior expressed his opinion again in a calm tone.

It was a perfectly rational response, but the ominous war cloud in my thoughts did not subside, but instead became more intense than before.

It was because I had a deep understanding through my experience so far.

The fact that the warrior shows such cynical words and actions is a kind of threat signal that he is dangerously suppressing anger that threatens to explode at any moment.

”Calm down. Warrior. You just said you wanted to touch it. How can I do it…”

In place of me, whose body was frozen by the murderous intent enveloped in the film, Apis suddenly stepped in to mediate the situation.

But Downa’s bombshell announcement didn’t stop there.

”I liked it first.”

The warrior was one step ahead, and Apis followed behind, widening his eyes in shock.

Both of them seemed as if they had never dreamed such words would come out of Dowana’s mouth her her.

”I met him first… I liked it first…”

Dauna’s angry words continued without a break.

However, instead of responding to those words, everyone in the room, including me, just pondered in horrified silence.

In some ways, it was an inevitable event.

Even within the warrior party, the insensitivity of these two was truly unparalleled.

Needless to say, Apis was a race that was blind to common sense.

When it came to the hero, he boasted an empathy ability that was not even at the level of a ten-year-old child, so Big Team and I had a hard time.

Therefore, the repercussions caused by this rambling confession of Dawna were bound to be enormous.

Even I, who was subconsciously aware of Downa’s feelings her, was like this.

It was clear that the emotional shock they were feeling right now was easily beyond the scope of my imagination.

”Downa…”

Even the words she managed to squeeze out ended up being nothing more than coaxing out three letters of her name.

And the uproar caused by such a foolish response was ridiculously enormous.

”I liked it first──!!!”

Quang! It’s so bad!

An ear-splitting roar. A wild torrent of magical power fueled by its power instantly engulfed the surrounding area.

It wasn’t magic.

It’s just that the magic power circulating in her body was pushed back by the turbulent turbulence of rough emotions and leaked out.

However, no matter how messy the form was, since the person wielding that magical power was a human being, its force was sufficiently threatening.

From noble mtl dot nete

”Apis! The bride!”

”I know!”

As the warrior cried his head urgently, Apis rushed out and stood in my way.

It was right after that. The warrior who hit the ground roughly launched his body towards Dauna.

Although it was only a fleeting moment, I was able to fully guess what intention the warrior had in taking such action.

At a glance, the action of putting the knife back into its sheath and swinging it like a blunt weapon showed that the focus was on neutralization, not removal.

I don’t know the cause, but it was clear that Dauna was not in her right mind, so the hero’s decision to temporarily stun her was a good decision.

But what made me realize that it was a so-called poor judgment that was only desirable.

Quad deuk—!

This was after a bolt of lightning shot up from the tip of Dauna’s staff and passed through the warrior’s body

◈◈◈

There were many factors.

First of all, the injury caused by being defenselessly hit by Downa’s magic bullet right before confronting Raiges greatly damaged the hero’s greatest strength, his mobility.

Betrayal by a trusted colleague. A shocking declaration that fell from the colleague’s mouth.

The negative impact that the series of events had on the warrior’s mind was also at a level that could not be ignored.

In addition, there was an inevitable gap created by trying to suppress the target rather than eliminate it.

It was inevitable that the sword strike, which included the unnecessary process of putting the sword back into its sheath once drawn, would lag behind by a beat compared to usual.

As a result.

‘It’s slow!’

Puzzle-!

By the time Apis realized the shocking truth, the situation was already over.

”Wow!”

Slurp.

The warrior, groaning as he was cut to pieces, kneeled helplessly on the floor.

Even within the hero party, which only had so-called superhumans, there was not a single person who could keep up with the speed of the sincere warrior.

It is the first time since the creation of the Hero Party that such a hero is robbed of a player on the battlefield.

It would not be wrong to call it an unprecedented situation.

”Hero─!”

With a breathless shout, Apis quickly placed his hand on the arrow.

Even at first glance, a deep look of astonishment was evident in those fluffy eyes that were constantly shaking like a candle in the wind.

As it was a chantless magic that emphasized speed rather than power, the lightning strike that Dauna used on the hero cost her her life.

She couldn’t reach the source.

As evidence, there was only a little soot and beautiful convulsions on the warrior’s body, and it was difficult to find any life-threatening injuries.

But there is no time to be complacent about that fact.

In a split second, Apis concluded his judgment.

”The rising sun and moon. A life lost helplessly. After going into exile, the endless cycle of reincarnation, all that remains is the bondage called mission…”

Chuck!

Apis looked at the hero who was momentarily incapacitated and aimed an arrow at Dauna, who began chanting again.

The arrowhead was aimed once at his head, then pointed at the staff, and then pointed at his head again.

Those aimless movements clearly showed how extremely agitated Apis was right now.

If you aim for the wand, you may be able to soften the power of the magic, but you cannot stop the magic itself.

Then, there was only one surefire way to stop the current Downa.

Killing Dauna.

”Hey! Downa! Stop! Right now!”

That desperate cry was not a warning, but a plea.

Although the two were close friends as if drawn from a picture, they did not hate each other deep in their hearts.

If that had been the case, there wouldn’t even have been a fight between these two.

It was clear that I didn’t want to see it, but that didn’t mean I wanted to die.

Before being an enemy of Cheolcheon, he was a precious colleague.

I don’t know Dauna’s feelings his, but at least to Apis, Dauna was that kind of being.

”Ugh!”

Understand!

Apis nervously threw the arrow she was holding on the floor and blocked Dauna’s path.

Stop.

Downa, who had always been outspoken, faltered for the first time, but only for a moment.

Downa, whose eyebrows and mouth were twitching beautifully, was about to continue chanting.

”Destruction. Guide me─.”

”Hey! You crazy b*tch! Aren’t you coming to your senses!?”

It was Apis’ angry shout that cut the words into pieces.

Approaching a mage who was chanting a long chant, and even disrupting his spell, was an act as dangerous as sticking your hand into a box full of explosives.

Moreover, Apis, who is dozens of times more sensitive to mana than the Human race, was bound to be exposed to such threats more easily than others.

Very little. Even if something went a little wrong, Apis’ life could not be guaranteed.

Nevertheless, Apis refused to take the safe path and chose a dangerous path that risked his life.

And it wasn’t just Apis who jumped into that difficult situation.

”Dow… Me!”

The main character of that unsightly voice accompanied by extremely disorganized breathing was none other than Lazys.

Even at first glance, Apis was barely able to support her body using her thrown bow as a staff.

A precarious position that makes you feel as if you will fall off immediately if you touch it with her finger.

However, contrary to his anxious demeanor her her her, his her pure white eyes her her her, which were looking straight into Dawna’s eyes her, were surprisingly resolute.

”Downa… Stop it now… Stop it…”

”That’s right! Do as much as you can!”

How long did that solemn silence last?

”Ah, Apis… Low… Bill…”

At that moment, the whitish light of reason dwelled in the eyes that were as cloudy as a bleak fog.

That light engraved a certain confidence into their seemingly vague actions.

The fact that there is still room for their comrades to return to their original state.

It was right then.

Kwaang!

”I waited for a while but there was no news. I asked what was going on. You were doing this here.”

An annoying guest who had been put aside for a moment out of consciousness announced the beginning of another trouble.
