The Munchkin Disciple Wants To Stop Being Obsessed Over - Chapter 153

153 – Lake (2)

The day before the pilgrimage ceremony begins.

Through my connected consciousness, I was asking Tweet, who was with Lily, about Lily’s condition.

[I’m just staring blankly at the window.]

[It doesn’t even create a cloud of smoke, and it stays like that all day.]

As expected, Lily was worrying about her tomorrow and the future and was giving up eating and drinking.

Is it because I saw through the monitor how trashy the pilgrimage ritual was? I had some idea of how Lily was feeling right now.

‘You must be afraid.’

Despite experiencing the process and pain of death countless and vividly, one cannot die. This is truly terrible.

Having not experienced the process and pain myself, I cannot fully sympathize with her feelings.

However, I think I know this one thing. The process and pain are not something that one person can endure.

No matter how strong your spirit is, the moment you dip into that lake, it will collapse and break down, and one day it will flow away.

‘You might be worried.’

Lily is smart and quick-witted. So she, Lily, she knows why I came along on this pilgrimage.

No matter how much she tried to stop him,

No matter how much I say no and that I will not do anything,

I also know that a person like me will not stay still tomorrow.

“After tomorrow…”

I can save Lily from the abyss of her pain.

The process may not be easy, but

It is true that I am afraid of the pain I must go through to save Lily,

“It’s going to be okay.”

Everything was fine.

If only Lily wouldn’t get sick.

If only Lily, who wasn’t sick, could smile in front of me.

****

Even though I knew it would flow away anyway.

Wearing meaningless makeup,

I wore pure white clothes that had no meaning.

Then she turned her head and looked once again at the window she had been looking at all day yesterday.

No matter how high the window was, I thought of someone who would jump out of that window without hesitation, even though he would make a funny expression, just by nodding his head.

“Puh-huh.”

When I think of his face, an innocent smile escapes me.

This is probably the first time.

On the day I headed to the abyssal lake where I wanted to die but couldn’t, I’ve never laughed so hard as I did now.

“···.”

The laughter lasts only for a moment, and the feeling of worry begins to dig into my heart again.

I’m afraid. A time of consciousness when the body flows down in pain and my existence is teased and denied in the abyss.

I’m worried. One of my people who is clearly trying to deny the time of consciousness that denies my existence.

“Please…”

The Carmel I know, she always walks around with a smile on her face, but she is a person who thinks deeper than anyone else.

He was that kind of person.

A person who does not make decisions without thinking.

A person who does not act without certainty.

A person who is not broken by injustice.

She is a person who never ignores the pain of others, even if it means breaking down herself.

“···I hope you don’t get sick.”

That’s why I desperately hope and hope.

I hope that she doesn’t get hurt by that ignorant man who is sure to do as he pleases even if he smashes her head with a mace.

Knock knock.

“Lily, it’s time to go.”

Just as I was hoping so, I heard a knock on the door and the voice of Michelan, the leader of the Crusaders.

“Because just me being in pain is enough.”

It’s okay even if it hurts. It’s okay to break down and be broken.

Because, unlike in the past when I was in endless pain, I know what I am now.

After the painful days pass, there will also come a day when I can smile, and also, the fact that I can smile when I see someone who smiles at me.

I muttered to myself and got up.

For a day when you can smile,

It was time to fall into the abyss for a moment.

****

A wide plain with only green grass shining in the sunlight.

Some of the 46 Crusaders gathered in line were quietly complaining.

“But why is everyone being summoned this time? “It’s never been like this before.”

“That’s right. “No one is going to come anyway, so why bother protecting this place where so many people are not sleeping and there is nothing to protect?”

“The thought of standing around without sleep for several days makes me feel exhausted already.”

“No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand.”

What he didn’t understand was the same thing for Michelan, who was standing firm and silently eavesdropping on their complaints.

The Pope gave instructions to Michelan. Guard this place with all the Crusaders until the pilgrimage ceremony is over.

This was not the only instruction that was not understood.

-“···No matter what the circumstances, never kill that child.”

The Pope spoke secretly to Michelan.

Stop the child who is expected to come here, but do not kill him at all costs.

“Don’t kill me…”

Michelan tilted her head and remembered the request the saint had made to her for the first time in her life.

-“Please. If someone tries to come to me and commits the unholy sin of charging at Sir Michelan and the Crusader with his sword drawn,

Please subdue me, but please forgive me. “Please…don’t kill him.”

No one knows who will come, but he refers to him as ‘him’ and asks them not to kill him.

“I am so…”

I was embarrassed. As he is doing his duty for the Holy Kingdom, he asks that he not kill sinners who try to interfere with the Holy Kingdom’s rituals.

Michelan had a vague guess as to who the criminal the Pope and the Saint had asked not to kill was.

Camel.

A saint’s guard cadet from Aden Academy.

According to information that only a very small number of people in the Holy Kingdom have access to, that child was a being that controlled starlight and was also a vessel of sin, a being that could not exist in the first place.

Is that all? It is also estimated that the child has cut down five sins.

“Stop!”

“Throw away your sword and go back. This is a sanctuary where sacred ceremonies are performed, and no one is allowed to approach.

In the meantime, loud voices were heard in Michelan’s ears, and a youthful voice whose presence was felt.

“I only say this once. If you don’t want to get hurt, get out of the way. Oh, by the way, ungodly people with demonic energy do not need to get out of the way. “You’re going to kill me anyway.”

Michelan’s eyes turn to the source of the voice.

A boy walking leisurely, wearing a strange mask, appears in Michelan’s eyes.

Michelan, the leader of the Crusaders, rolled his eyes and measured the boy approaching with his black hair flowing.

It looks defenseless, but there isn’t a single gap in sight.

He appears weak, but the starlight and haze that flicker around him prove that he is by no means weak.

“···I looked like I was going to die.”

Michelan, who could immediately guess the level of achievement the boy had achieved, swallowed dry saliva and drew his sword.

****

One, two, three… Forty-six.

I couldn’t help but be a little surprised when I counted the number of Crusaders guarding the plain.

‘I didn’t know they had gathered all the Crusaders…’

In the game, at most there were only about ten people guarding this place, but there were a whopping forty-six crusaders.

Compared to the game, the difficulty level has not just increased, but has increased significantly.

I don’t know who gave these instructions.

‘Thank goodness.’

It was sincere. That’s because among them, the twelve men who were particularly hostile toward me were corrupt people who I should have killed anyway.

It was already a hassle to go there one by one,

I was worried that he might run away and I wouldn’t be able to kill him.

With all of us gathered in one place like this, there was no way I couldn’t be thankful.

“Stop!”

“Throw away your sword and go back. “This is a sanctuary where sacred ceremonies are performed, and no one is allowed to approach.”

The two Crusaders standing in front drew their swords and took a threatening stance.

You can see it through the celestial eye. They do not possess magical energy.

“I only say this once. If you don’t want to get hurt, get out of the way. Oh, by the way, ungodly people with demonic energy do not need to get out of the way. “You’re going to kill me anyway.”

So I spoke kindly.

If you don’t want to get hurt, get out of my way. There is no need to get out of the way of those who are going to die anyway.

“What nonsense are you talking about!”

“You brought this on yourself!”

Unfortunately, the two guys in front kicked my favor and rushed at me to kick me.

So, I kicked him in the shin once.

Bad!

“Wow!”

Bad!

“Keuheuk…!”

Then, the two Crusaders fell to their seats, clutching their shins.

“I’m sorry. “Please rest well.”

I whispered softly to the two Crusaders who were in pain, clutching their horribly broken legs.

Even though they were not corrupt beings, the reason why they were overly dependent on them was simple.

To show those who are not corrupted how strong I am.

I want to set an example and reduce the number of unnecessary victims, and I don’t want to waste my energy unnecessarily.

I said so.

“Hit!”

“Suppress it!”

Unfortunately, the Crusaders didn’t seem to realize my intention, so each and every one of them drew their swords and started charging at me.

Crash.

I had no choice but to pull the two swords out of their sheaths.
