The Munchkin Disciple Wants To Stop Being Obsessed Over - Chapter 124
124 – Why are you there?
After returning to my dorm, I lay down on the bed and thought over the conversation I had with Duran in my head.
“Anyway, these days, even if you say the right things, they don’t understand…”
I tried to persuade him by telling him various important facts.
Duran answered firmly.
-“I’m sorry, but I don’t completely trust what you say.”
If I had known how to answer like that, I wouldn’t have told you anything I know.
-“So what are you going to do? I’m going to put it on hold. “Until I see and feel for myself that what you said is true.”
Cunningly, Duran declared that he would put the car in neutral gear.
-“Aren’t you curious about the method? I’m not really curious right now. Because if what you’ve said so far is a lie, your method will also be a lie.”
He tried to offer a conciliatory hand that bordered on threats, but Duran Eunji opened his eyes brightly and declared as if he were a great detective.
It was an extremely arrogant answer that would have made me angry if I were a student or an ordinary criminal.
Maybe it’s because I have a heart as broad as the ocean, but I wasn’t angry at all, because I fully understood the position and feelings of Duran, the next saint.
If I were to become the next saint, a strict guy would suddenly say to me, ‘Those cardinals are corrupt idiots and I will kill them. So help me. If I don’t help, I won’t know how to save my sister. ‘Ebebebe.’ Are you shaking like this?
I assure you, that stern bastard would have been at least crippled by the harsh winter in our country.
Is that why? To be honest, I didn’t hate Duran for not confronting me and answered rationally and politely, but in fact, I was even grateful.
“You cocky bastard. Ugly bastard with slit eyes. “You bastard will get hit on by me later.”
I have a generous heart and I really wasn’t angry at all.
“Well, anyway…”
It doesn’t matter. The day after tomorrow, Duran will have no choice but to trust me even if he doesn’t want to.
Thinking like that, I tried to close my eyes and then jumped up. This is because my mouth felt stuffy when I went to sleep. Come to think of it, I didn’t even brush my teeth today, let alone take a shower.
I had to tilt my head as I was trying to put my hand into the bag I was carrying to take out the toiletries.
“···?”
It seemed like the bag just moved by itself.
“Am I really tired these days?”
As a munchkin, I guess I see things in vain when I’m tired. Just as I was thinking that.
-Finch.
The bag moved on its own. No, to be precise, the top of the bag rose and then sank.
“Could it be that a bug got in there?”
If so, it was a really big deal for me, who is more afraid of bugs than the devil.
-Finch. I flinch. I flinch.
I rubbed my eyes and doubted my vision, but the movement, which was as big as the woman’s fist, was becoming more violent.
If it were a bug of that size…
“You’re screwed.”
After careful consideration, such a conclusion was reached, and I had to worry deeply.
Do you decide to just burn that bag with fire magic, ready to throw away all the household items you brought with you, or do you open that bag and put your hand in it, ready to fight the devil?
“···.”
Once again, after careful consideration, the conclusion reached was the latter. Because, when I thought about it, I could just repurchase everyday items, but in order to do that, I needed a lot of money inside. I don’t know if it’s just a penny or two, but there’s as much as 500 gold in there.
“Ha, I can do it…!”
It turned out that I, a slave of capital, brainwashed myself to overcome my fear and opened the bag with trembling hands.
-Food Duck!
“Huhhh!!!!”
I was thrown backwards by a loud sound effect and a sudden warm and unfamiliar touch on my face.
I wish I had just passed out.
-Cock! Cock!
“Stop it! “You did it wrong!”
The entity that defeated me, which not even the Seven Deadly Sins could defeat, did not stop attacking me, and although it did not hurt, I had to declare surrender one after another due to the stinging and unpleasant attacks.
-Cock! Cock!
I cried so desperately to give up. I had no choice but to open my eyes in response to the barrage of attacks from the opponent who showed no sense of fair play.
Smooth shine, multiple legs, flowing mucus, ugly and disgusting face, etc. Imagine the typical appearance of a bug.
“I, I lost… Huh…?”
When I realized that what was in my field of vision was not the bug I had imagined but a blue lump, I had no choice but to blink and tilt my head.
“Tweet?”
The blue bird with its mouth full of something also tilts its head to follow me.
“Tweet!”
f*ck you. Why are you out there?
****
The words that my friend, whom I thought was eccentric and even unique, grabbed me by the collar and started talking to me constantly reverberate in my head and cannot go away.
-“Of the five cardinals and twelve crusaders, these three will definitely be waiting for us. Cardinal Theros, Baol, and Crusader Berg.”
-“For your information, the three names I just mentioned are the names of the guys I said I would kill right away on my first night in Derdic.”
-“They were faithful people? You’re talking like a dick. “They are worse than dogs in heat over there mating.”
It was an unbelievable story. So I tried to ignore it and erase it from my mind.
However, the words that my eccentric friend said will not leave my mind and will only continue to play rough with my mind.
Just in case, just in case.
What if everything Camel said was true…?
‘Definitely not…’
No matter how much I think about it, I can’t imagine it.
The three people who gave us a hand and treated us with unusual warmth when we were wandering the streets after losing our parents to a monster have long since become corrupted. I can’t believe he would even try to do such an ugly thing to his sister.
-“If you don’t believe me, get this and check for yourself. “It is an artifact that allows you to sense demon energy.”
Why was he able to speak so confidently? Carmel’s eyes and voice were full of confidence.
“Priest Barhal. When will we arrive in Derdik?”
“hehehe, we’re almost there. Ah, I want this old man to tell me a little more about the cardinals and crusaders who are waiting for him in that city of Derdic…”
As I was lost in thought, I heard the voices of priests Kamel and Barhal in my ears.
Naturally, my eyes turn to the face of Camel sitting in front of me.
Did he feel my gaze like that? Camel’s expression, which seemed as if she would close her ears and fall into a world of meditation, changes strangely, and her closed lips begin to open.
“I will soon find out who the people who will be waiting for me are.”
“Yes, that’s right. Those who guide and protect must thoroughly cover their bodies and minds for their calling and journey until they begin the journey, but from the moment they begin their journey, they must attach more importance to their calling. “Let me explain a little more here…”
It’s definitely a lie. That couldn’t be possible.
Strangely enough, Kamel’s expression is full of confidence.
Is that why? I start to think a lot.
We will arrive at Derdik soon. The carriage door will open, and the faces of those waiting will be visible directly to my eyes.
I start to feel anxious.
What if their names came out of Camel’s mouth? What should I do?
Conversely, what if everything Camel said was a lie? So how should I, her next saint, treat Carmel? Should I draw my sword? Or should they really be sent to the Inquisition?
-Drur.
While I was thinking for a while, the carriage door opened.
Then, an old man who was holding the saint’s hand looked at her and smiled warmly.
“Oh, my saint who is like my son. “Welcome.”
“···It’s been a long time. “Cardinal Theros.”
One.
“Duran! No, the next saint. “Thank you for your hard work to get here.”
“···Thank you, Cardinal Paul, for your hard work.”
Two.
“It seems like only yesterday that I was looking after the sword, but seeing it grow so proudly gives me immense emotion. Long time no see. Brother Duran.”
“It’s been a while. “Brother Berg.”
Three.
“Nice to meet you. “My name is Camel.”
“hehehe, it looks like you made a very close friend in that short period of time. “I see you arm-in-arm with your brother without any pretense.”
“To that extent…”
I was about to reply after pushing away her arm that was wrapped around her neck.
I couldn’t say anything when I saw something held in Camel’s palm.
Because, what I could see on the palm of her hand, which was visible only to me under the pretext of being on her shoulder, was a necklace that was gradually turning black.
To be precise, it was an artifact that Camel had hung around her neck, asking me to check it out for myself.
****
At the very front of a long line of carriages.
Two old men leading a carriage on white horses and a middle-aged man were talking in voices that only they could hear.
“A while ago, that kid. He felt like he was a vessel of words.”
“It seemed like he had noticed something. What do you think about that? “Brother Berg.”
“That kid. She pretended to hold her shoulder earlier and used her palm to cover the necklace Duran was wearing. “The color of the jewel in the necklace was clearly yellow at first, but later I saw that it had changed to black.”
“It’s black… It’s an artifact that questions our sincerity. Emmanuel…”
Cardinal Theros prayed devoutly and quietly closed his eyes.
How long has it been like that?
“I guess…He already expected this.”
Lord Theros opened his eyes and smiled warmly and opened his lips.
“This time… You left me an unusually large gift.”
“A gift…”
“I guess today is the right time to open that wrapping paper. This old man needs to pray again. “For that poor little vessel… Ah, do you want to do it together?”
“Of course. Emmanuel.”
“Immanuel.”
They prayed with more reverence than ever before.
****
Is it because I faced the laughter of people I was not happy with?
Lily, who was closing her eyes in the shaking carriage, felt particularly tight in her chest today.
Why is she so frustrated? Even when she pretended, it wasn’t to this extent.
As she thought that, Lily opened her eyes and tried to pound her chest, but she couldn’t.
“···Huh?”
From Noble mtl dot com
Because pounding her chest would hurt the little creature staring at her from her own cleavage.
“Tweet?”
The blue bird that was looking at her tilted its little head, and then went deep into her clothes.
“Tweet!”
Then it pecked somewhere with its beak.
“Ha, hahahaha…!”
Lily’s thighs closed reflexively.
