The Returner Wants Complete Victory - The Returner Wants Complete Victory chapter 46

46 – 046. Uninvited Group (2)

The procession drew near.

Since there were only about 20 people, I was worried that they would trample us, but fortunately, the other person stopped us.

The driver standing in the lead stepped to the side.

And then someone came forward, driving a horse.

“Are you the owners of this city?”

He was an old gentleman with a rather stylish mustache.

A neat uniform and a purple cloak.

Purple is the color that symbolizes nobility.

And judging from the fact that knights were at the forefront, it is a position closer to a civil servant than a military officer… .

Are you a judge who has come to punish us?

Rick looked back at us with a puzzled expression at the old gentleman’s direct question.

Seeing Rick like that, the old gentleman added.

“I heard that there was a big war over ownership of the city. “Aren’t you the winners?”

“That’s true, but may I ask who you are?”

“Ah, the introduction is late. My name is Jorad Rogtash, a second-level administrator of the kingdom. “I don’t know if it would make more sense to introduce him as the newly appointed mayor of this city.”

market.

First of all, given the atmosphere, it didn’t seem like they had come to punish us, so we were able to relax for a while.

But soon suspicion rears its head.

There are no Kingdom citizens in this city.

At most, only a few employees of the merchant union.

The four border cities, including Kirnyu, are cities where all members are mercenaries from Earth.

And dispatching officials to a city is not a simple act of planting a flag and saying, ‘This is our land.’

There is no country that sends an official to a slash-and-burn village.

In this world, dispatching officials actually means protecting the city.

Most high-ranking officials are nobles, and it would be impossible to send them to a village without even the slightest protection.

The knights and soldiers who followed that man will reside in this city and protect it from now on.

But why?

Is this city worth it?

My mind was spinning about something that had never happened in the first place.

“And this is my secretary, Deir Elianore First Class. “This is a face you will see often in the future, so remember it.”

Jorad said, pointing to the young man on the horse next to him.

The young man pointed out bowed lightly toward us from his horse.

It was so sharp that it reminded me of a well-honed knife.

“I want to pass on the road, but can you please get out of the way?”

We quietly moved to one side.

A procession began to pass along the road we had cleared.

There was no reason or justification to stop it.

The royal family wants to send an administrator to their city, so what authority do we have to argue about that?

There were knights, kingdom soldiers, administrators and other civil servants, priests, and although it wasn’t visible due to the hills, if Eli had said, there was even a mercenary group from Emur and laborers behind it.

A wave of humans with no end in sight… .

I thought that at this rate, the number of people coming in could be greater than the population remaining in Kirnyu.

“Why don’t we just stand here idly and go back?”

I said, nudging Rick’s arm with my elbow.

“uh? Ah, that’s right. “Let’s go back first.”

Rick also answered slightly late, probably because he was thinking too much about the unknown situation.

But I really don’t know.

Dispatching an official to a city that doesn’t have an owner. Well, let’s say you can do that by making a hundred concessions.

Let’s say they dispatched an official because it was disgusting that these guys from Earth were fighting and claiming that the city was theirs without even knowing the subject.

But why are the priests and Emur’s mercenaries coming?

As it was something that had never happened even in the first round, there was too little information given to judge anything.

Anyone is welcome to ask about the situation… .

At that time, someone broke away from the procession and rode a horse towards us.

When I looked up from the top of my horse, I saw a familiar face.

A heretic inquisitor from the Celestial Church wearing a black robes with one leg open.

“It’s been a while, Apostle.”

“Oh, yes. “It’s been a while since I saw you.”

Hyril Eraesie.

“Could you please give me a moment?”

The person who got off the horse approached me and said.

The gaze of the priests passing by falls on us and then quickly falls away.

“Of course.”

Even so, there were a lot of things I wanted to ask, so I thought it went well.

After sending the kids back with Rick, I escaped to Hyril and the outskirts of the city.

Bo-kyung looked worried that she was alone with the person she fought to death last time, but when Eun-ha grabbed her hand, she was dragged away as if there was nothing she could do.

“But what are you suddenly doing, Apostle? “Why am I an apostle?”

As I was walking down the street, I asked a quick question to freshen up the mood.

“For what is the one whom Izra told me to take care of, if not an apostle?”

But the answer I received was beyond my imagination.

You told me to take care of you? Who who?

“… Well, what exactly does that mean… ?”

I managed to control my expression and asked back.

It felt like if I made the slightest mistake, they would curse me and say what kind of bullsh*t I was saying.

“It’s a revelation. The Holy Father asked me to help the Apostle. I hope to go along well.”

I stopped walking.

When I tried to ask why so many people came to this city, I heard something even more troubling.

Doesn’t that just mean that they are going to use the fact that they are offering help as an excuse to keep an eye on them?

However, it was impossible to just refuse.

Refusal itself would seem like an admission that I am your enemy, from Izra’s point of view.

It was okay for the time being as I had no intention of doing anything particularly suspicious, but being monitored was a burden in itself.

“You don’t have to do that. “I’m worried that I won’t live up to the goddess’s expectations.”

“She’s not a goddess, she’s an archangel.”

“Oh, I did.”

“I hope to go along well.”

f*ck.

He was speaking politely, but he didn’t seem to have any intention of backing down.

Even if I give you a hundred rejections, they will all come back as ‘Please take care of me in the future.’

Crazy psychopath fanatic b*tch… .

Even if I refuse until the end, I will follow you and not give up.

If you try to kill this woman or force her away, you will only raise Irene’s suspicions.

I gave up and decided to dig up the information I needed.

“But do you know why an official was suddenly dispatched to this city? A group of priests are coming in, and I heard that Emur’s mercenary group is also coming in… .”

“The order of precedence is wrong.”

“yes?”

“It’s not like an official was dispatched and a group of priests and mercenaries followed. “Because the church decided to build a temple here and spread the will of Proa, officials and knights were dispatched from the Kingdom of Euphrines.”

“A temple? why?”

“It’s a revelation.”

I kept my mouth shut at the rainbow-like logic.

“Temple dedicated to the god Proa will be built not only in Kirnyu but also in Estis, Croza, and Yumari. “Isn’t this truly a blessing?”

They said that they would monitor the entire city because attaching just one person would not provide peace of mind.

They even say they might run away to another city, so they’ll plant a turret there in advance as well.

“It’s a gracious thing.”

“Let’s pray.”

Hyril said that and then closed his eyes and prayed.

It was sh*t.

“But why do you talk like that? “It’s different than when I first saw it.”

I guess I don’t have any questions anymore, so I asked about something that had been strangely annoying from the beginning.

Hyril certainly seemed to have a strange way of speaking that irritated people.

“Because you are an Apostle. “We just take the examples that fit.”

Okay, do whatever you want.

I walked towards Rick’s inn, and Hyril followed behind me like a baby bird.

I felt like I was already getting tired.

*

Just because a market was established in the city, nothing changed immediately.

Numerous empty buildings were demolished and workers erected new ones.

In the process, the territory of Kirnyu’s existing forces, including Rick, was not invaded.

Compared to before the war, the city’s population had fallen to less than 1/5, so it was only natural.

Rather, the problem arose right away on my side.

“Apostle, this is what you eat. “Wouldn’t it be better to get a little more nutrients?”

“These people are the Apostle’s colleagues. I saw you last time, but you didn’t look particularly strong… Is there a special reason for being together? “If there is, I’d like to know.”

“Don’t worry. Just follow along. “My heart is already shaking at the thought of being able to see the Apostle punishing a group of evildoers.”

When eating, when training, and when going out to catch chimeras for achievements.

Hyril always appeared from somewhere and followed me like a ghost.

At this point, I was wondering if a tracking spell had been engraved on my body without my knowledge.

“… What is that girl? “I’ve been in a bad mood for a few days now”

Bokyung whispered when she saw Hyril chasing us as usual.

I came out after making sure it wasn’t in the lobby.

“This is Hyril Eraesie. Her rank is a senior nun, and her affiliation is the Heresy Inquisition.”

“Hmph—!”

Before we knew it, Hyril was standing right behind us and spoke in a whisper.

Bo-kyung was so shocked that it seemed like a match was going to start.

Hiccup─

I was so surprised that I even started hiccuping.

Hyril grinned at the sight and widened the distance again.

A vicious act that cannot be trusted by a priest who believes in God… .

To this extent, isn’t there a problem with Izra itself before Irene?

He doesn’t even know that the God he believed in has been replaced, but he’s doing something like that.

“Isn’t love and mercy the most important thing for Izra?”

“Of course.”

“But why would you surprise someone like that just because they asked who the kid was?”

Crash.

As soon as my question was finished, the flail that was neatly folded and hanging on her waist made a clanking sound.

… No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like it was intentional for it to suddenly do that without making any sound until now, right?

From noble mtl dot com

So, is it mercy that you just say it without breaking your head?

Crazy b*tch… .

“You are already putting your teachings into practice wonderfully.”

“I am thrilled that the Apostle recognizes me.”

While we were continuing our uncomfortable journey together, I noticed a group of people heading somewhere.

They were all wearing different outfits, but they all had a pattern depicting a wild beast’s teeth somewhere on their clothes.

The name… Wild Fang? I think it was a name like this.

This was a mercenary group from Emur, and it would not have been a very powerful mercenary group within Emur.

Of course, this is based on Emur, and things may be different in Kirnyu.

Emur’s mercenary group itself means that it is a group with at least 100 people with Noah-level skills.

For such a strong group, they stayed calm and didn’t make much of a fuss, so they were attracting attention.

But where is everyone going?

“Do you know anything?”

“What do you mean?”

Hyril expressed doubts about my sudden words.

I thought I could understand it at a glance, but it wasn’t that much.

“Those people. “Where did everyone go together like that?”

“well… . I’m not sure because I haven’t heard anything either. “Would you like me to find out?”

“Yes, I would appreciate it if you could. “Please do me a favor.”

I quickly expressed my gratitude to Hyril’s words.

Wouldn’t you have to go somewhere to find out?

Please f*ck off!

“Oh, yes. Father. I am a senior nun in Eraeshi, Hyril. It’s no different—.”

However, Hyril seemed to have a communication device and immediately started talking to somewhere.

“Plague.”

“yes?”

“no. let’s go.”

Bo-kyung next to me questioned the sudden swearing, but I just gave a cursory answer and continued walking.
