Heavenly Inquisition Sword - Chapter 1108
Episode 1108. After hearing about Mana Phthras’ special blessing,
‘Charat’, Fabian said with an excited face.
“Then the rift will disappear soon?”
“They say that you can find out by removing Charat. Will the crack close or not grow any further?”
“I think it will be restored to its original state. That makes sense.”
Elio nodded as if agreeing.
Seeing that the ice wall has maintained such a shape for thousands of years, it seemed like it would be the case.
“But finding and eliminating Charat is not an easy task. Well, it’s better than building a castle.”
“why? I heard you sprayed hundreds of them around the rift? I know where and how many there are, so what’s the difficulty?”
“In Hiruhera, a blizzard strikes every day. Meteor swarm marks have also disappeared, buried in the snow. Do you think finding hundreds of bone fragments in the snow is easy?”
“ah! That’s right. Still, I think it’s much more hopeful than building a castle. Fortresses are really unanswerable, aren’t they?”
“Of course, it is easier than building a castle. But the workload has doubled, so the workers won’t be enough. Maybe even the soldiers will be mobilized to excavate the bone fragments.”
“Listening to what the Viscount said, I think it would be better to be discharged quickly.”
“Look. You think so too. It’s because I’m not taking you just to like me. It’s much better to follow me around than shivering in the cold in the garrison looking for bone fragments.”
“Yes.”
Fabian shook his head.
Wouldn’t it be better to come back from work and take a break in the barracks like in the past?
Just the thought of going around looking for bone fragments with the company members made me feel tired already.
***
Next day.
Elio met with the priest of Manapthras at Marquis Bernardo’s barracks.
Marquis Bernardo stepped forward and introduced both sides.
“Sir Elio, this is Anna Ramakrish, high priest of Mana Phras. Anna Ramakrish-sama, this is the Viscount Elio Lagoa you mentioned.”
After the introduction, Marquis Bernardo smiled and took a step back.
Anna Ramakrish looked at Viscount Elio Lagoa with strange eyes.
I heard that I was young, but I never thought I would look this young.
One could doubt whether the great nobles were related to black magic or demons.
He himself, in his thirties, is an exceptional case, but the other person was too much even in his own eyes.
Even though Viscount Elio Lagoa heard the sound of ‘high priest’, Anna Ramakrish opened her mouth first.
“I heard a lot of words. The Marquis said that he was a high-ranking priest, but in fact I am an apostle who is the representative of Mana Phthras.”
Marquis Bernardo was taken aback by the word apostle.
This is because an apostle is a greater being than a high priest or high priest.
While high priests and high priests are priests and administrators of the church at the same time, apostles follow only the will of Mana Phrases until they die.
That alone does not make the apostle an object of reverence.
Whether he was a knight or a wizard, if he was a mana user, he had no choice but to look at the apostle.
This is because if you are cursed by an apostle, the protection of Mana Phthras will disappear.
As much as Elio had studied mana, he knew what apostle meant.
‘But what should I do?’
As a Reiki practitioner, it didn’t matter much whether he was a high-ranking priest or an apostle.
“Oh, that’s right. So to speak, I am the representative of Shastra Parakti (the true spirit of the Nine Heavens). nice to meet you.”
Anna Ramakrish’s eyes widened.
I hadn’t met Shastra Parakti’s agent yet.
“Are you really Shastra Parakti’s representative?”
“Did you just buy a trick? Really, would you lie then? I don’t lie.”
“iced coffee! sorry. It wasn’t because I didn’t believe it, it was because I met Shastra Parakti’s agent for the first time.”
Anna Ramakrish felt a little strange when she apologized.
Come to think of it, it was the first apology he made after revealing his status as an apostle.
‘He’s a Reiki practitioner, so he doesn’t find it difficult for me.’
Hagiya, if it had nothing to do with Mana, there was no reason to be hard on yourself.
Anna Ramakrish looked closely at Viscount Elio Lagoa.
Then he remembered the request of Duke Escatos.
He said that Viscount Elio Lagoa had an absurdly large aura for his age, and asked to find out if it had something to do with black magic or demons.
‘Let’s see. First of all, the eyes are clear…’
The dark wizard’s eyes are cloudy, and the demons have bloody energy.
Looking at her eyes, she had nothing to do with black magic or demons.
But you can only know what it contains when you see it for yourself.
She secretly released divine power inside the barracks.
The energy of Mana Phras is in conflict with magic, so if you are a black mage or a demon, you will immediately have a seizure.
Elio, who had been sitting with a sullen face, suddenly spoke.
“Priestess, do you wear a good perfume? I like that it smells subtle.”
Anna Ramakrish forced a smile.
Judging from the fact that the divine power she sent out was the smell of perfume, it was definitely not mana.
Then she felt strange.
‘Perfume?’
It’s obvious, but divine power doesn’t smell.
I could feel the stench from the magic of the black magicians, but that wasn’t the actual stench. Something that offends is simply expressed as a stench.
But apparently Viscount Elio Lagoa said ‘smell’.
Since the beginning of history, no one has ever referred to divine power as smell.
She turned to Marquis Bernardo.
“Can you smell the perfume too, Marquis?”
“no.”
Marquis Bernardo shook his head resolutely.
I could smell the fragrance from the goddess, but it was difficult to call it perfume.
Anna Ramakrish, who was tilting her head, released a large amount of divine power.
In any event, if Viscount Elio Lagoa was playing tricks, he planned to destroy them with divine power.
It’s cheap…
When the sacred power was filled, a refreshing sound was heard.
Intense mana and mana user, Marquis Bernardo’s eyes became dim. If you stay like this for a little while longer, your face will be in a state of trance.
Anna Ramakrish stared intently at Viscount Elio Lagoa.
An exclamation escaped from Elio’s mouth as he sniffed.
“ah! Could this be the smell of mana? good, good.”
Feeling better, Elio inadvertently made the gucheongi run around.
The dense divine power that filled the barracks was sucked into Elio.
The divine power of Mana Phthras was soon reconciled to the Nine Heavens and accumulated in his body.
When all the divine power disappeared, Anna Ramakrish asked with an absurd face.
“Have you absorbed the divine power just now, Viscount?”
“Oh sorry. It’s because it suits me so well. I didn’t know that my spirit skill and the priest’s holy power would match so well.”
“No, this isn’t a problem that can be said so simply… Divine power and the viscount’s aura match well?”
“Yes, the kids who left the house mix well as if they came back?”
“Nonsense. oh sorry The root of my divine power is mana. The Viscount is a spiritual practitioner. It’s normal when mana and aura don’t mix.”
“I can’t feel mana… but I can feel the priest’s divine power. As you can see, it suits me well. Is it because the priest is an apostle?”
“What does that have to do with it?”
“Because I once absorbed the aura of the creator god. Maybe that’s why it mixes so well? It could be that the creator god is the predecessor of Mana Phras.”
“The creator god is Mana Phrass, so you speak of the two as if they were different?”
“Ah, I meant a creator from another dimension.”
“Are you crazy?”
“Aren’t you crazy?”
Elio looked at the priestess blindly.
If another woman had said something like that, she would have blown her ears.
But he knew how his words sounded, so he listened with one ear and let it out.
Suddenly, Anna Ramakrish raised one hand.
“I command in the name of Manaptras. If Viscount Elio Lagoa has anything to dwell on, show it. Intra Luketum!”
It’s cheap…
Divine power once again waved.
But nothing happened between the two.
Elio, who was scratching his head with a frown on his face, asked cautiously.
“What are you doing?”
“What did you do? Now I will tell you the result. The Viscount has nothing to do with black magic or demons. I also confirmed that the Viscount’s aura is part of Mana Phras’s. It’s only natural that Mana Phthras is the creator of this world. So if you don’t want to be called crazy, don’t go anywhere and talk about another dimension.”
Anna Ramakrish stormed out with diagnosis results.
Elio, who was listening blankly, nodded his head thinking, ‘Anyway, it’s good that things ended well’.
“But I’ve never heard of a knight absorbing divine power until now. A spiritual prayer that overwhelms mana like the Viscount. Why do you think that is?”
“I told you. He accepted the aura of the creator god.”
Anna Ramakrish thoughtfully asked.
“Does that mean that it is not the aura that dwells in this world… but literally the aura of the creator god?”
“Yeah, I happened to receive the aura of the creator god.”
“…”
Anna Ramakrish was speechless for a moment.
Is it the Spirit of the Creator?
“Have you ever met Mana Phrass-nim in person?”
“Not at all. If so, I would have been blessed with mana. I was just lucky enough to have met the aura that the creator god had left in the world.”
“Ah…”
She shook her head.
If so, it’s understandable that his aura is superior to mana users.
In a way, that was also a blessing from Manaptras.
“I see now that you have received the ‘Special Blessing of Mana Phras’. Everything is the providence of Lord Mana Phras to save Hirhera.”
Anna Ramakrish, like an apostle, praised Mana Phras for a long time.
Elio was bored, but he held it in.
It’s because if you have to be stamped by the apostle of Manaptras, your life will only become tiring.
The interview with Anna Ramakrish ended just before lunchtime.
When Anna Ramakrish left, Marquis Bernardo smiled and said,
“Congratulations. I think the results came out better than I thought. Since Apostle Anna Ramakrish said that Sir received the ‘special blessing of Mana Phras’, no one will doubt his swordsmanship from now on.”
“Now, if anyone says anything, can I name Apostle Anna Ramakrish?”
“exactly. The authority of an apostle is absolute, so no one will raise an objection.”
“Is that enough?”
“You can lose the blessing of mana because of the apostle’s words. Whether it’s a wizard or a swordsman, the words of an apostle are absolute to mana users.”
“Then, from now on, I can wield the sword to my heart’s content without paying attention?”
“Since you have been endorsed by an apostle, it will be of great help in raising your title. The reason why the title of Lord could not be elevated was because the great nobles did not fully believe in the Lord. By the way, since the apostle was said to have received a special blessing from Manaptras… if he remains in the kingdom, he will be able to become a duke.”
Bernardo subtly emphasized ‘if you remain in the kingdom’.
Elio, quick-witted, smiled.
I know his feelings, but I don’t know if he’ll come back to the North once he leaves Hirhera.
“Thank you for your words. Oh, and how did Baron Fabian and I get discharged?”
“Ah, I told the staff about that in the morning. The vice-captain’s position will remain vacant for the time being, but Rufus Company has decided to send a new company commander in the afternoon.”
“Good for you. We will set off right after lunch. Thank you for all this time. Marquis.”
Marquis Bernardo responded to Elio’s meaningful farewell.
“I hope for good results. You are the pride and pride of the Kingdom of Escatos and the North.”
