While Havel was advancing relentlessly.

Barea, the spearman, and Edler were secretly looking for the keys inside the fortress.

Since Mobius had drawn so much attention outside.

They began to retrieve the keys by going around the places that Mobius had told them about.

This was a room in the fortress.

It was filled with various objects and looked like a warehouse at first glance.

However, it was a secret room where important objects were hidden away.

Baria searched the room with Changjabi.

And finally, he found a safe hidden behind the bookcase.

‘Suddenly, something is quiet.’

Meanwhile, Barria felt that it was unusually quiet outside.

Baria, who felt strange, approached the window of the room.

And soon, Baria’s body stiffened.

What he saw through the window was none other than Habel.

“Mr. Habel?”

Baria was embarrassed because he never thought he would come in person.

That’s understandable because Penbola should have come.

“Mr. Habel came?”

Then, Changjabi made a surprised expression.

Mobius made a bet with Habel.

The purpose of Mobius’s bet.

‘It is to make Mr. Habel accept the cooperative relationship with the whisperer positively.’

Changjabi didn’t know the details, but the whisperer definitely needed Habel’s power.

Then, as a subordinate, he had to prioritize orders.

‘I’d rather carry all the keys so that I can win the bet.’

The condition of the bet is to collect 50 keys first.

The number of keys in August exceeds 50.

If he takes all the keys and joins Mobius, he will win the bet.

“Don’t think about it. That’s a behavior that goes beyond the point of being obsessed with the bet.”

At that moment, Baria warned him.

It was because he noticed Changjabi’s thoughts.

“Mr. Habel is a person who repays as much as he helps. If you become blinded by the bet and go around in circles, he will be angry.”

Baria’s next advice made Changjabi’s mind clear.

As he said.

This time, it is all about gaining Habel’s favor.

He shouldn’t get annoyed instead of favor because of the bet.

“Thank you. I was short-sighted.”

So, Changjabi admitted his fault obediently.

Hearing his words of gratitude, Baria just smiled bitterly.

Many people are racking their brains because of the man named Habel.

Actually, Habel doesn’t seem to care about anything other than Banpellion.

‘I hope none of the five great families will try to touch Banpellion.’

If that happens, one of the five great families in this world will disappear forever.

“Let’s join Mr. Habel.”

So, he decided to do his best to prevent such a thing from happening.

He firmly stated that he is now the representative of Graiza.

Thud!

That was the moment.

Suddenly, the window handle flew off and embedded itself in the wall.

“Ack!”

At that instant, Varia turned his head to the situation that had unfolded in a flash.

He doubted his own eyes.

There was a single person standing there with his hand raised.

Always with a bright smile and the steady fastness of a believer.

The devout priest Edler.

He was the one who had sent the window handle flying with a single blow.

“Hmm, it seems the situation isn’t going to be very amusing.”

“Edler?”

Varia looked at him with a face full of bewilderment.

An unknown sense of disgust began to well up inside Varia.

Regardless, Edler picked up the key that was on the floor.

“Is the trial given by God falling short of expectations? It’s no fun. This isn’t what I expected.”

Edler had his usual gentle smile on his face.

Varia felt a sense of incongruity there and before he knew it, he had drawn a dagger.

At that moment, the dagger that Varia threw flew towards Edler.

Just before the dagger, which flew in a zigzag pattern, was about to pierce Edler’s neck.

From noble mtl dot com

Thud――.

The flying dagger stopped dead right before Edler’s neck.

As if an invisible hand had grabbed hold of the dagger, it trembled slightly.

“Trying to run away?”

That was the moment Edler reached out to grab Varia.

A giant spear flew towards him, smashing the furniture in the room to pieces.

It was none other than the spear from the window handle.

He, who had a good amount of grit, reacted immediately.

“Varia!”

Varia heard the cry of the window handle and understood his intentions.

He had to get out of there right away and call Havel.

From the short battle just now, both the Varia and the window handle had realized the strength of the man named Edler.

Having spent time by Havel’s side, the two of them knew better than anyone what overwhelming strength was.

So Varia immediately threw himself towards the window.

The moment he went outside along with the shattering window.

Crash!

Varia was rolling around on the floor in a corner of the room.

The surprised Varia immediately jumped to his feet.

Before his eyes the window that had been broken because of him, completely round.

‘Should I have just thrown myself out the window just now?’

Why was he rolling around inside the room again?

An eerie feeling swept through him.

He felt like something was wrong.

It was the moment when Baria threw himself toward the window once again.

BAM!

And he was facing the same situation again.

When he went through the window, he was rolling around in the same room again.

“Ugh!”

Baria threw the dagger at the window.

But the thrown dagger went through the window and returned.

It felt like this space was completely separated into a different space.

KWAANG!

A loud noise echoed from behind him along with the wind.

The books that were torn by the wind were whirling around the room.

The window frame was lying down among the rising smoke.

His window, which was split in half, could no longer exert its power.

Baria’s eyes slowly turned back to Edler.

Edler smiled, showing the jingling key.

“Lord Baria, why are you in such a hurry to leave?”

“…Edler, what is your true identity?”

The Grazia family is one of the best families in terms of information.

Of course, Grazia was the one who had all the information about the Golden Generation.

Edler was clearly an ordinary and faithful priest.

There was no other information but now he couldn’t figure him out at all.

Edler, who heard Baria’s question, kept silent and soon laughed.

“I am a faithful believer.”

It seemed like he had no intention of telling him.

“What do you think you’re doing? You must have seen Lord Havel right next to you.”

Havel is right in front of us.

If he does this, he won’t be safe either.

When asked if he knew that, Edler just laughed out loud.

“I’m doing this because I want to test him.”

Test.

Hearing that, Baria’s eyes narrowed.

He used the word ‘test’ against Havel.

Does that mean he’s that confident in his skills?

However, there was another question apart from that.

‘Lord Havel has never had any doubts about Edler either.’

Havel is definitely someone who sees the world differently from others.

Even he didn’t notice anything about Edler.

Edler might be that strong.

Baria gripped the dagger tightly.

‘I didn’t kill the spearhead.’

Does that mean I can assume he had no intention of killing her?

Baria calmly assessed the situation.

What can she do here and now?

‘Extract information.’

She’ll pretend to respond and waste time.

She hoped that Habell would notice this place.

“Lady Baria always thinks on her feet.”

However, Edler had also spent time with Baria.

“I hope you were able to get as much information as you expected.”

Baria bit her lip as she watched his leisurely appearance.

She’s really unlucky.

‘I’ll do it while I still can.’

Just as Baria was about to throw the dagger again,

BAM!

She heard the sound of something twisting from beyond the severed space.

Edler also turned his head in that direction.

This space was one that Edler had arbitrarily severed.

Someone was now intruding through it.

“…This quickly?”

At that moment, even Edler’s expression was one of surprise.

BAM! CRASH!

The space shattered with a resounding noise.

“I thought I could smell a whiff of bad luck.”

The shattered space poured down like shards of glass.

In the meantime, someone stood there, their sword draped in pure white dawn.

The one with silver hair almost white was none other than Habell.

“Were you hiding like a rat?”

While threatening the adjutant outside, Habell got a tingling sensation in his nose.

It was a phenomenon that occurred when bad luck was nearby.

Habell rushed over after sensing the bad luck, and what did he find?

He found a distorted space right before his eyes.

So he immediately broke it and entered.

Edler, who always smiled, looked slightly surprised this time.

“I thought I’d be able to hold out for at least 10 minutes. How did you do it?”

It was Edler’s special severance space, created by layering bad luck and distorting the space.

Once trapped, one could never escape.

And conversely, it was impossible to get out.

Habel had broken through it in just a few seconds.

However, the response he received was even more amazing.

“I just broke in.”

Even Edler was a little stunned by those words.

He had thought that his isolated space could only be resolved with force.

Habel glanced at Baria, who was holding a dagger, and then at the fallen spear shaft.

Then he turned back to Edler and asked,

“So Edler.”

Habel asked, stretching his neck.

“What’s your relationship with the Poison of God?”

Edler, who had been so relaxed and stiffened for the first time.

Habel could feel the intense murder intent in his eyes.

This was because letters were once again lined up before him.

[The apostle of the ‘Poison of God’ looks at you with a hardened expression.]

Others may not know, but Habel could tell.

The Evil Omens were all made known to him by the Demon God dwelling in his body.

This Edler bastard was an apostle sent by another guy called the Poison of God.

‘A new guy has appeared after the Whisperer.’

Habel looked at Edler and became certain.

Following the Whisperer, the masters of other Evil Omens were also showing interest.

And the Poison of God must have also sent an apostle because he couldn’t see him.

He must have sent Edler to find out about him.

‘It means that the Demon God is still blocking their eyes.’

Habel lowered his sword as he thought this.

Was this guy really the master of the Evil Omen that the Whisperer had spoken of?

Or was the Poison of God also bolstering his forces to fight against the enemy, like the Whisperer?

One thing was for sure: Habel was not feeling very good right now.

He had never seen a single good guy who did things like this behind the scenes.

[The ‘Poison of God’ looks at you covetously.]

At least the covetousness of the words appearing before his eyes was unpleasant.

“Whatever.”

A dawn shone fiercely from Habel’s sword.

Accordingly, a twisted smile spread across Edler’s face.

“Let’s talk after we fight a little.”

He had to make the apostle of the Poison of God kneel.
