Dark Fantasy Paladin - Chapter 129

Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 129

Episode 129

Four people were sitting around a round table in the library on the second floor of the mansion with a lantern in the middle.

Saya said.

“Try making it a little brighter. “It’s too dark.”

Yuriel held her hand to the lamp. A white flame attaches to the tip of the index finger. As I waved my arm, the haze fluttered, leaving behind a long tail.

Light particles leaked out along the pure white lines and filled the interior. It was Aiden’s divinity.

The inside became softly bright.

Euron let out an exclamation.

“Saint, what on earth is your level of divinity like this?”

Yuriel said while drawing an arc.

“It would be difficult to argue. Because there are no samples. But now that it exists, why not study it at the church? “I’m also curious about the results.”

Iden’s divine power was unknown. It may be difficult to judge by human standards.

Saya said, touching the cluster of lights floating in the air.

“Is this really that big? “I don’t know.”

Yuriel nodded.

“It is a force that only works on sun believers and demons, so it will be difficult for you to feel it.”

Saya let out a hum.

“So, from your perspective, Aiden is a blessing?”

Yuriel smiled bitterly.

“In some ways, that might be the case.”

Saya chuckled.

“You are hypocrisy itself.”

Yuriel nodded slowly.

“I agree.”

Euron smiled awkwardly and looked at the two in turn.

“Haha, I can’t follow the conversation.”

Saya pointed to Aiden’s divinity.

“You said you can only handle the sun god? “What would happen if that white sun lit up more and controlled all the nights?”

“Well, no devil will show up at night.”

Yuriel opened his mouth.

“That may be true, but no one except the Varanche Christians will be allowed to leave the house at night.”

Saya drew an arc.

“that’s right. Those who cannot use Aiden’s divinity will be robbed of light and live in darkness.”

Euron spoke in a low voice.

“······I guess so. “You won’t be able to see anything, so even if you have urgent business, you won’t be able to solve it, and if you’re sick, you won’t be able to get proper treatment.”

The darkness created by the white sheep was a polar night where you could not see even an inch ahead.

Saya pointed to her eyes.

“You get the idea, right? They are forcing their faith by using their vision as collateral. If you don’t want to lose your light, convert to Varancheism. Many small creatures will have to be accepted. “Clap clap, it’s Iden’s achievement.”

Then I looked at Yuriel.

“Then what do you think, our compassionate saint? “Are you trying to say that this is the right way?”

Uriel has no answer. Saya was back.

“I clearly remember why you betrayed the sun and became the saint of Iden. Do good, help the weak, and be tolerant. These three things are the driving force behind your rationalization? But what about now? “It seems like the values you believe in and that white sheep are in conflict with each other.”

Euron, who was listening, clenched his fists and opened his mouth.

“Not serving Taekwang, recognized by the sun, is itself evil. The act of eradicating evil is good. A lesson to help the weak? Pagans are not weaklings. It’s something to build. The same goes for tolerance. It is a sin to show mercy to evil. “I think that white sheep is doing good.”

Saya smiled a subtle smile.

“Euron, I don’t have any intention of refuting. I don’t really care about your opinion. “I’m just curious about Uriel’s reaction.”

I turned my attention to Yuriel.

“Can you relate to that? You think it’s your brainwashing. “It was the reason we were always conflicted, and it eventually stuck with Iden.”

Yuriel opened his mouth.

“Saya, I know what you’re trying to say.”

“Good. Then answer me.”

Yuriel, who was lost in thought for a moment, got up and walked to the window frame. He looked down at Aiden sitting in the training hall and said.

“Taekwang and Taeyang are different. “Taekwang doesn’t say anything or express his intentions, but he embraces all religions except Demonism.”

Yuriel turned his gaze to Saya.

“Aren’t your people also moving to the sanctuary?”

“that’s right. That’s not all. It doesn’t discriminate between races such as elves, mermaids, giants, etc. Soon all the intelligent beings on the continent will gather together, right?”

It was true. The heavenly armies have already left to recruit.

Yuriel nodded.

“Yes. Nor does he treat them as slaves. You say we are equal to humans. “Even though from our point of view they are nothing more than pagans.”

Yuriel looked at Euron.

“So I can’t agree with Euron’s opinion.”

Euron swallows his voice. The saint continued.

“You know, right? “His Holiness does not treat other faiths as sins.”

Daryl, who was pale with fear of having his liver taken away, finally came to his senses and opened his mouth.

“······Well, actually, it’s the same for Euron and me. “There is no such thing as faith.”

Euron was startled and covered Daryl’s mouth with his hand.

“Deril!”

Daryl quickly dodged it and spoke again.

“Hey hey. These sisters know everything anyway, bitch. “What are you trying to hide again?”

He looked at Saya.

“Isn’t that right?”

Saya said, resting her chin.

“I guess it’s loyalty rather than faith.”

Daryl snapped his fingers.

“bingo. It doesn’t matter whether it’s good or evil. Taekwang… No. I just follow my lead. I don’t know anything about beliefs or causes. The grace that saved my siblings. “He allowed us to live as human beings, so it is only our duty as human beings to repay.”

Then he pointed to Euron.

“This guy will be similar to me. What about evil, what about good, what about tolerance? “It’s obvious that all that nonsense was said to defend Nauri.”

Daryl nudged Euron.

“Hey, isn’t that right? “Honestly, we’re not sitting here because we have any special intentions.”

Euron sighed and nodded.

“Actually, Daryl is right. If I, a failed recruit from boot camp, knew about faith, how much more would I know? “I am just my master’s sword.”

While saying that, he suddenly waved his hand.

“Of course, it doesn’t perform the role of a sword properly, but…”

Saya opened her mouth with a chuckle.

“At least we can’t say that the owner’s beliefs are wrong.”

“That’s right. “The sword does not judge.”

Saya pointed to Daryl and Euron and looked at Uriel.

“That’s the difference between you and these guys. You’re not following the person called Iden, are you? His actions and values are persuasive. You must have judged these things by your own standards. Of course it would have come out as a line.”

Yuriel nodded.

“that’s right. “I think all his actions are for good.”

Saya smiled a subtle smile.

“Then what if there are cases where things don’t match?”

Yuriel looked at Baekyang through the window.

“It’s a leap. “That one white sheep does not represent Taekwang’s feelings.”

“that’s right. Because none of us know how to use that. But you can predict it, right? Iden could force conversion through Baekyang.”

Yuriel shook his head.

“You know Taekwang’s actions, but how can you come up with such a hypothesis? If Taekwang had intended to do it by force, he would have stained the continent with blood a long time ago. “But you didn’t do that.”

Saya chuckled.

“I called you a hypocrite. You say you agree? Here is evidence that you were conflicted. What should I do if Iden wields a violent weapon with White Yang? You must have thought something like that. So what is the conclusion?”

Yuriel looked down at Aiden.

“The premise was wrong from the beginning. First of all, Taekwang will not force conversion. There is no way someone who hates the ways of the church more than anyone else would do that. However, unintended cases may arise.”

Yuriel paused and then spoke again.

“Indirect damage. Since he has Baekyang, Taekwang will definitely use it, and there will be adverse effects. Saya, as you said, everyone except the sun believers will be deprived of the freedom of the night.”

Yuriel turned his gaze to Saya.

“But there is no way Taekwang would intentionally lead to such a result. It’s literally just indirect damage. “The reason I responded that I was a hypocrite is not because of His Holiness Taekwang.”

Yuriel pointed to himself.

“It’s me. I made a compromise inadvertently. Since it is a major task to monitor the devil, it cannot be helped even if other religions experience inconvenience. In the meantime, there must be many intelligent beings who harbor the will to convert. Is this a good thing? Regardless of whether it is right or wrong, it contradicts the gospel I preached. So I agreed with being called a hypocrite.”

Saya shrugged her shoulders.

“To you, Aiden is quite sturdy.”

“He is the god I chose.”

“So what is your conclusion?”

Yuriel drew a bitter line.

“I don’t know what’s right. If that white sheep grows huge and covers the world in the future, there will definitely be people who suffer. “They will be a minority and will remain the underdogs who are endlessly oppressed under the name of Taekwang.”

Saya smiled slightly.

“Isn’t that only indirect damage? “Iden’s intentions have nothing to do with it.”

“You can probably ask about responsibility. However, it was not His Holiness Taekwang’s intention.”

Saya said in a low voice.

“Is that really the case?”

Yuriel did not know Iden’s purpose. One God. Aiden vacates all the thrones and seeks to become a unique being.

It won’t be a very beautiful road.

Iden even declared that if there was a god who did not hand over the throne, he would kill him.

Saya now knew Aiden’s true intentions.

‘Baekyang represents Iden.’

I had no choice but to see it that way.

What if Uriel also realizes Aiden’s purpose? Saya was very curious about her reaction.

There may be cracks in your unbreakable trust.

I thought about telling him, but decided not to. Because the trust between Aiden and Saya will be broken. He had no hobby of spreading overheard words.

Saya stared at Yuriel.

“Make sure you live long.”

Yuriel tilted his head as if he was puzzled.

“···yes? “What is that all of a sudden?”

“I just want to see your expression later.”

Aiden’s predicted defeat. Yuriel will be broken as she looks at a history filled with the blood of countless gods and their followers.

I might leave Aiden before that happens.

No matter what the outcome would be, Saya was just curious.

Yuriel muttered as if he didn’t know.

“If it’s the facial expression…”

Daryl said with a smile.

“This, this, these two sisters have finally reconciled. Now applaud. “What are you doing, you bastard?”

Euron smiled awkwardly and clapped his hands after Daryl.

Saya also smiled.

“You are too weak, so use this yourself.”

I took out the Shinsungganro from under the table.

“I was originally going to give it to Iden, but I changed my mind. “Wouldn’t it be difficult if I suddenly died on the way?”

After saying that, he got up and approached Yuriel.

Yuriel couldn’t understand Saya’s sudden favor.

“Saya you…”

“Aiden are you okay? If you don’t like it, tell me now. “You can hear it anyway.”

There was no answer back.

“Now, Iden gave permission too.”

Saya smiled and placed the shield on Uriel’s wrist.

Changing liver road. It was changed to a smaller wrist protector shape to fit the owner’s body. It was radiating golden brilliance.

Yuriel stared at the shield that blocked everything for a long time.

After a while, he smiled gently and said.

“······Saya, don’t expect too much. “I won’t break down.”

Their gazes intertwined for a moment in the air. Saya spoke first.

“Well, that could be possible.”

Then I turned around and walked towards the library exit. I said as I passed Daryl.

“Oh, by the way, I memorized everything. “The Book of Phaedna.”

Daryl shouted in a fit of rage.

“What are you talking about?”

“Really. I looked through it all during the conversation. If you don’t believe me, ask. Instead, you have to answer as well.”

I couldn’t believe it, but it didn’t seem like a lie.

Daryl shook his head and let out a desperate voice.

“Void. “I didn’t say it was the beginning…”

“Start.”

Saya chuckled.

“I’ll give you three hours as a handicap. See you later. “Wipe your stomach.”

Saying that, he left the library.

Yuriel looked at Aiden outside the window for a long time.

The paladin approached Aiden.

“Your Holiness suddenly became serious. What are you thinking? Tell everything to this old man. I will lend you the wisdom of time. Haha!”

Iden said with his eyes fixed on Baekyang.

“I have no idea.”

The path had already been decided.
