Absolutely Do Not Touch Eldmia Egga - Chapter 386
He looked at the human bomb in front of his eyes without taking his hand off the handle of his sword and pondered for a long time before finally understanding the situation belatedly.
Although she is a human with a few screws missing from her head, Tennea has no prejudice against demons, and that she completely trusts the effectiveness of the sex method to determine lies. As a result, you can spit out such bizarre answers casually.
In the first place, it is contradictory to consider the possibility of threatening the hero when it is not assumed that the demon champion will unconditionally help the demon king. In that sense, everyone in the world is a potential hero-slayer. However, if you assume that I did not come here because I was certain that I might threaten Siegfried, but simply to believe in the Holy Law and to check whether there is a ‘possibility’ of doing so, it makes sense.
I don’t know what mechanism that is rolling, but it must have exhibited a near-perfect hit rate in reading the other person’s sincerity. That’s why you’re doing that shit, and that’s why, at the point of conversation, Saint Tennea said, ‘This might be like this.’ The same assumption becomes meaningless.
Because you can know for sure that it won’t be more than a conversation.
It was a sensation that I could never understand… It was meaningless even if I, who couldn’t even understand the world where I felt mana and aura and guessed the strength and weakness, tried to think about it. I was completely out of energy for a moment, and I was in a state of collapse, but then Tennea carefully took out something and handed it to me.
That attitude was also strangely timid and gave off the nuance of being really sorry, so I wanted to punch him without realizing it.
“I’m giving you this as an apology for the rudeness that just happened.”
“This will end with the expression rude… Ha, what is this again?”
Upon receiving it, I found that I was holding three objects that looked like glass marbles wrapped in some elaborate silver artifacts. Something glowed inside, but I couldn’t tell what it was. Looking at this with a gaze demanding an explanation, Tennea scratched the back of her head shyly and said,
It was also a strangely embarrassing attitude, so I got annoyed at the moment. I couldn’t find any tension in her anymore.
“It’s a kind of potion made by gathering my holy power. It’s not using holy water as a medium, it’s the condensation of the holy power itself, so it can be used anytime as long as the holy thing protecting the outside is not damaged.”
Her explanation really started to make me think of arrogance. Even if it’s a crazy bitch, a saint is a saint. If it was a specially processed potion made by Tenneas himself, it would be as good as the blue potion.
“How effective is it?”
“To the point where I can save him if he doesn’t die…?”
I let out a deep sigh when I saw that the silver was missing from Tennea’s eyes.
It is understandable that he was prepared to give his life to protect his precious person. If the country had a similar thing, I would have worried a lot. However, I did not threaten Siegfried’s life, but rather helped him, and it was an obvious leap to repay him with self-destruction.
If I had tried to kill him, I had several chances. It is undoubtedly Tennea’s fault for forgetting and skipping all of that because of a moment’s anxiety.
It may look similar to what I’ve done so far, but I can swear in front of Epaga that I’ve never done anything like this to anyone who helped me in my fucking life.
That’s why you can’t just skip it. At least you have to pay for your rashness. So I was worried, but thanks to this, I didn’t have to worry.
“It should be.”
That’s why I drew my sword with the acceleration obtained by momentarily exploding the magical power that was flowing through my body.
Her nerves, which were already on edge, were strengthened by magic power, and even the blinking of her eyes without knowing the world was seen as slow motion.
And at that moment, the tip of the sword came out of the scabbard and swung toward her neck.
“uh…?”
With her eyes wide open, Tennessee didn’t have time to panic or react before blood gushed from the carotid artery on the left side of her neck.
◈
Generally, potions of religious orders are based on holy water. It has the efficacy that pseudo drug dealers would claim to heal wounds when applied and internal injuries when drunk, but that is only an acceleration of recovery, not a way to recreate what has been lost.
For example, the blood that escaped from the body. That’s why no matter how many potions you have, you can’t fight while drinking them like water.
What makes the difference is the quality of the potion. The structure itself that draws on the body’s resilience is the same, but the difference is how much more efficiently it recovers without burdening it. Furthermore, the class is divided into whether or not it can be completely restored as if it had received the healing method.
In that sense, the blue potion belongs to the higher class.
The reason why it is not the highest grade is that it cannot keep up with the efficacy of the highest grade potion produced by each church. Since they are items close to the realm of miracles, there are not many of them, but since they exert an effect worthy of being called Tier 0, even wizards who produce blue potions do not raise any objections. However, it has the advantage of being able to preserve the effect semi-permanently and has a sufficiently excellent recovery ability, so it can be said to be the highest level among the upper classes.
Even if the performance of the object Tenneas gave me was just that much, it would be enough to solve this situation. After making that judgment, the sword he swung cut her carotid artery without an inch of error.
The wound is shallow. Of course, if you leave it alone, you will die within a few seconds. The saintess, who belatedly confirmed the blood gushing from her neck in sync with the pulse, instinctively blocked it with her hand, and looked at me with trembling eyes. Those eyes were shining silver, unlike a moment ago.
It was not a healing spell to treat the subject, but a lie detector spell.
Thanks to that, I was convinced of the hypothesis that she had only relied on the lie detector technique, and after inserting my sword, I explained briefly and quickly.
“This is a warning.”
I didn’t believe that I would understand all of my intentions with that one word. I just said it because he just needed to know that I didn’t intend to kill him right now. Then he took one of the marbles she had handed her around the bewildered neck of Tennessee and asked a belated question.
“But how do you use this?”
Tennea’s eyes, which had been moving back and forth, quickly regained their composure, as if worrying about what I said and did. Even if it rots, it seems that she is not very ignorant since she has been living as a saint of a church called Junchi.
“…Heh, if you hold it with force.”
“It’s a structure where the handiwork breaks the glass and activates it. I understand.”
It’s good that the risk of injuring your hand is low. I crushed the marble faster than Tennea could nod in agreement with my murmur.
A huge halo of light! and did not spread. If I had to compare it, it was close to a silvery, sparkling fog. At the same time, I felt the beads in my hand slowly disappear, as if they were melting into mist.
“Is this… the realm of authority?”
“First of all, she’s a saint.”
It was a crazy conversation. He slashed his carotid artery with his own hands and healed it, and it was not an answer he would say calmly after being treated like that. But Tennea, as if he had already understood why I had moved this way, showed no hostility and kept his composure as he lowered his hand from the blocked carotid artery.
And the source of his composure seems to have been his confidence in the bead potion. In fact, I was deeply admiring the strength of the saintess I had met for the first time.
Perhaps the expression “excellent effect” is used in such a case.
“Can anyone?”
“Not really.”
The spurted blood disappears. But that doesn’t mean it’s going back to her neck again. However, it was clear what the meaning of the blood disappearing in the process of wound healing was clear.
“It’s like rewinding time.”
It is unknown what process it goes through, but her healing technique even restores human blood. Well, that’s the realm of authority.
“…It’s interesting. Zeke said the same thing.”
Thanks to this, I was scheduled to do a general cleaning in the afternoon to wipe away the blood, but I was able to nod my head in satisfaction as I looked at the clean professor room and her neck. With this level of performance, you can escape from the danger of death twice, so it is a level that can be extenuated. That’s why I gave notice as calmly as possible.
“I don’t really care how much the saintess depends on the hero or how much she values it. But don’t forget that if you do something like this again out of stupid suspicion, even if you get struck by lightning from the Ete of Light, it won’t go over as well as this time. It was an act that the very existence of the saintess could be the reason that made me hostile to the hero.”
Tennea didn’t show any obvious behavior like getting angry at me, staring at me, or looking at me. Rather, he seemed to hesitate again as if nothing had happened and only bowed and apologized over and over again. His brow furrowed involuntarily at the attitude of the screw missing, but he roughly waved his hand and sorted it out.
“Really, what kind of heartache is this? So, are you done with your business?”
“Ah! My business is over, but I still have business that the first princess asked me to do.”
oh my god. I guess you’re really crazy
You said you were prepared to commit suicide with me, but you’ve been asked for a favor for when it’s over? It was the moment when my evaluation of the Holy Spirit of the Holy Spirit of the Empire changed from a timid timidity to a genuine yandere psychopath.
This is the saint you chose, Siegfried. I don’t know, so endure with evil.
