Is It Bad That the Main Character’s a Roleplayer? - Chapter 83
◈Episode 83 Don’t do this (8)
Ayu Hin is not a port city. It is true that it is close to the beach, but due to the topography, it was faster to go by horse than by boat from the hidden port.
However, if there are about 300 people and there is not even a word, that part is bound to be reversed.
So the pirates in the port lowered the ladder themselves. The ship’s ladder that would transport the church members and wizards to the waters off Ayu Hin.
“For what reason did you set out?”
Windson slumped down on the boat. It was a place where you could see Ayu Hin, built on a hill in the distance.
“I didn’t know you’d be the first to offer a ride. “That too to the church.”
However, there was one passenger there. Baramson handed a bottle of alcohol to leader Rahong. It was alcohol smuggled from the port.
“You… didn’t you tell me?”
Although Rahong probably did not know that fact, he accepted the drink instead of pointing it out. Strong liquor flowed out of a wine bottle made of copper.
“I couldn’t lose my family again… Let’s not make them live on top of the burned ashes… I just thought that was right.”
She gently lowered her wrinkled eyelids.
“Because children are innocent.”
“…What’s going on with that curly old lady? “Break down all your stubbornness.”
“Do you think you’ll get old?”
“I will live longer than you.”
“okay. live long “The longer you live, the more shit you see.”
“Are you cursing now?”
Frivolous stories are perfect for covering up mixed feelings and sadness. Additionally, alcohol is a means of letting go of hidden emotions before they accumulate.
“…Do you think it would have been successful?”
“Would you like to know?”
Baramson was handed a bottle of alcohol and stuffed the liquid into his own mouth. I ignored the therapist’s advice that I should not drink anything since I had a knife stuck in my stomach.
“The port is in the same shape, but if we can’t even kill Vipurit’s gang, it will be ruined.”
Among pirates, there weren’t many who listened well to doctors.
“Captain!”
At that time, the person in the watchtower shouted loudly. Rahong’s eyes were fiercely curved.
“Don’t be nervous. What if I get caught by demons…”
“A blue beacon has gone up from Ayu Hin!”
“…!”
“Vipurit is dead!”
That was quite a bit of news to shout about.
* * *
“Huh!”
The Inquisitor opened his eyes and immediately stood up. The breath I took in urgently was cold and heavy at the same time.
My lungs and all the muscles surrounding my ribs were extremely sore.
“The devil knight?!”
But this is not the time to give in to that pain. She urgently looked around. As she turned her head, only one strand of hair hit her cheek, and the surrounding scene came into view.
It was a prison. Decorated somewhat comfortably.
“…?”
Her first hypothesis was whether she was late.
But if she was truly late, she would never have woken up. So, the hypothesis is rejected.
So the demon knight has been subdued? What if she also collapsed?
Or rather, what about the safety of the people around you?
Sigh.
First of all, my life is intact. Deciding that it wouldn’t be the worst, she straightened up.
The soft cotton blanket was pushed away and fell to the floor. Although there were no beds provided in the prison, other than the blanket, other blankets were piled on top of each other to replace the bed.
“Oh, there you are.”
In addition, her eternal partner, the mace and shield, are leaning side by side on one side of the prison wall.
Looking at the armor that was handed over to the main unit neatly laid out on a piece of cloth, it doesn’t really seem like the worst situation.
“Is Vipurit really dead?”
“You saw what worked.”
“No… I have a hard time believing that the monster is Bipurit…”
It was even worse when I heard the sound of people chattering outside the hallway.
The Inquisitor blinked, then decided to change his clothes first.
As the conditions of fast movement and infiltration continued, I had to leave my armor behind, but that made me miss it even more.
“When will the hero wake up?”
“The priests said you weren’t seriously injured.”
She quickly put on her armor while overhearing the chatter. Even though there were no squires, the Iron Knight was fully armed in less than 10 minutes.
“That monster really ends with a seal…”
Squeak.
She pushed the barred door open. When something is not managed, the sound of metal moving quickly across the hallway.
The chatter that had been coming from some distance away ended.
“Hey warrior!”
“Are you awake?”
The Inquisitor saw members of the church rushing towards him. Of course, just because I said ‘characters’ doesn’t mean there were really that many.
“I will let you know!”
One of them even turned around. The remaining two people arrived in front of her.
“Yes eh.”
The Inquisitor bowed lightly to those who rushed in front of him and then checked the important things.
“What was the situation?”
The demon knights and thieves are the ones who came running at that time.
The development of events after she fell.
The priests were silent for a moment in response to the Inquisitor’s question. Although she had little experience interacting with people and couldn’t pick up on delicate emotions, she didn’t feel that negative about it.
“First… let me explain from the beginning.”
“I will listen.”
After a while, they started explaining.
How did the main unit arrive here at the right time? Why were there only so many people? How many casualties were there? How did they recover afterward? etc.
“We were able to get up here quickly with the help of the pirates in the port. “I considered the possibility that it would turn out to be hostile, but everyone was cooperative.”
“In the process of entering the city, we saw that the enemies were confused and divided our personnel to suppress them.”
“Of the 38 people who came to the castle, 0 died and 35 were injured. Among them, four people were seriously injured, but priests treated them on the spot and their lives survived. “I am currently recovering.”
“Of the 264 people who remained outside, 19 were killed and 37 were injured. The enemies all fought like a ragtag group and there was no significant damage. Most of the deaths occurred while resisting the devil.”
“Currently, wizards are forming a safe zone centered around castles and dungeons, and we are focusing our efforts on dealing with demons and rescuing people.”
The Inquisitor quietly listened to the report. Then, when my curiosity got a bit overwhelming, I asked questions from time to time.
“The pirates didn’t come?”
“Due to the danger, we remained on the beach. “After they succeeded in retaking it, they sent a signal, so they would have returned to the port to pick up supplies as promised.”
“What do you mean the enemy was confused?”
“There seemed to be trouble, and the demons attacked the Vipurit group. There was almost no command rank in sight, so I was completely confused. “I think the Archmage decided that he could easily subdue us by splitting up the number of people.”
“Oh, that’s probably because all the demon contractees in the castle died and the demons ran amok.”
“yes. “After investigating the situation, we came to the same conclusion.”
“What happened to Vipurit?”
“His death has been confirmed. “The body has now been disposed of.”
However, the last question that was put off was this.
“…What happened to the demon knight?”
One possibility is explained by the fact that among the 38 people who faced the demon knight, there were no deaths but only injuries. But there’s no way to say that’s necessarily true.
After procrastinating and putting it off, the Inquisitor finally asked about him. As a warrior, I shouldn’t say things like this, but… I think I was a little afraid of what the priest would say.
“He is…”
And the priest’s expression darkened.
“…The bishop advocated for the death penalty, but after the Archmage opposed it, it was concluded with temporary sealing.”
The Inquisitor’s eyes widened.
* * *
“It’s hard to get old….”
The Archmage massaged the back of his neck for a moment as he looked at the list of things that would never end.
She brought 300 people with her, but it took her breath away that even that wasn’t enough. This was not a problem that could be solved even with the knowledge of a wise man.
“Is it fortunate that no one was swept away by the disaster?…”
Old Shaggy briefly looked back at the moment when the Great Devil possessed the Demon Knight blew up the castle.
Thinking about it again, it was a very fortunate choice to bring only 40 people in and not bring the rest close to the castle.
If they had been dragged to the entrance of the castle, they would have died together when the castle was blown away.
“…maybe no one.”
Of course, the luck would end there. There was no way to find out because it disappeared without a trace, and she didn’t think there was really anyone there.
Coincidence was too much for the survival of those she led and the Inquisitor Rogue.
“Was the attack deflected… or was it deflected?”
The Archmage looked back at the castle. The castle has an open top, as if it had been dug out with a trowel, leaving a little bit of the bottom.
That was exactly the mark of the Inquisitor blocking the attack and the mark of the sword striking aimed a little higher than them.
This is also the reason why I worry between what was avoided and what was allowed to be avoided. The height of the remaining wall is almost the same height as when a person was lying down.
That was why, instead of raising the possibility that someone might have been caught up in the cult, she concluded that there were no victims.
If the demon knight wakes up fine and can control the demon as he showed his potential.
He can save more lives than he would have killed this time.
“…If there are people who die, I feel sorry for them.”
The moment you use relative value as a standard, goodness becomes meaningless. But wisdom does not necessarily consist in goodness.
As a wise woman, she did her best. It may not be the right decision, but it was a decision I have no regrets about.
“hmm.”
…I have no regrets, but I am a little afraid.
She relaxed her stiff fingers after just a moment of reminding herself. The devil was a devil. How can you intimidate people like this with just one blow?
“Arch Mage!!”
Then a loud voice called her. When I heard the voice, I thought that something had finally come.
Rather than saying I particularly like it or dislike it, it’s closer to recognizing that the work that should have been done has now arrived.
“Keep working.”
“yes.”
He glanced at what he was working on as he approached the wizard. A demon knight is imprisoned in the middle of an empty lot created by demolishing a building.
What the wizards do under her supervision is to strengthen the restraint magic circle.
“You are sealing the demon knight…”
Meanwhile, the person who approached with the sound of metal immediately dilated his pupils. Her gaze lands on the sealed man.
However, the Inquisitor is not only inflexible, but he is also quite brilliant and knows how sealing works.
There is no way she would have been surprised by the new seal. The part that surprised the Inquisitor was…
“What is that sword?”
It was probably because of the sword that pierced the demon knight’s abdomen.
“He put it in himself.”
“self…?”
The Archmage roughly guessed where the Inquisitor’s memories were interrupted.
If he had remembered that the demon knight left the thief alive and instead harmed himself, he wouldn’t have asked about it like this.
“Yes himself.”
“So…” The
Inquisitor’s eyes trembled after hearing that the Demon Knight had killed himself.
However, since he was not a person who could not guess the intention of self-harm, the Inquisitor eventually calmed down the shaking in his eyes.
“But if you leave it like that, you will die from excessive bleeding.”
“Would you really leave it like that? Don’t worry. “We are providing treatment.”
no. It is questionable whether treatment is even necessary in the first place. Not only did he not fully recover from the knife injury, but his recovery did not require much treatment.
Even though he did not have the level of regenerative power shown by the Inquisitor, his natural healing power clearly surpassed that of ordinary people.
“But that’s too much. He shouldn’t be treated like this.”
well. Is that really true?
The Archmage followed the Inquisitor and stared at the sealed person again.
Even though he was a man whose limbs were not only restrained, but even his eyes and mouth were tied tightly with wet cloth, it still seemed inadequate to her.
That was something completely different from her trusting the demon knight.
The Demon Knight’s strength clearly exceeded the average human and was that much more dangerous.
Even if the probability of a demon waking up instead of a demon knight is limited to 0.01%, the damage they will endure the moment they break through that probability is too overwhelming.
In addition, she was also the general manager of this site. There are too many lives for which she is responsible to consider only one person’s situation.
“No matter what the Inquisitor says, I cannot compromise on this. “The Inquisitor knows his power best.”
“I am not trying to prevent arrest. “I’m just asking if it’s okay to remove the knife stuck in my abdomen.”
However, the Inquisitor did not back down easily. It was more difficult because she is an inflexible person.
How can you persuade someone who agrees with the seal because he has a history of rampage, but wants to remove the sword because he thinks ‘it is not right’? It’s also true that I’m not being unreasonable.
“I didn’t know you even stuck your sword in, but I heard at least that the demon knight voluntarily attacked at the last moment. There were no deaths other than demon followers or pirates. “I don’t think it’s a coincidence.”
“I also don’t believe it was a coincidence. However…”
“I am not asking you to weaken or release the binding ceremony. All I can do is ask for at least humane treatment. Is even that impossible?”
“…we still don’t have enough hands. “When the situation becomes more stable, will it be okay to start treatment?”
“…If that’s the case.”
In the end, the Archmage decided to give in. In fact, she also felt uncomfortable with this treatment.
Just as we cannot criticize the sacrifice of cows for the greater good and say, ‘That shouldn’t be done,’ we can’t say that it is right either.
“Instead, there is something I would like to ask the Inquisitor for.”
Above all, there was something she needed the Inquisitor’s cooperation for.
Just because you refuse a favor doesn’t mean you’re a great person who won’t accept a favor, but human relationships are smooth when there are comings and goings.
“What is?”
“It’s nothing special. “We just need the power of the Inquisitor to catch the demons in the city.”
No, is that it? Although I didn’t mention it, there are quite a few places that require the power of an Inquisitor.
Purifying the corpses and unclean lands spread throughout the city, transporting people who are still trapped here, and clearing a path by dealing with demons outside the city only become easier when the Inquisitor steps in.
Of course, the Archmage could solve the problem to some extent… but unfortunately, she had more work to do.
From comforting the survivors and preparing their food, clothing, and shelter, to requesting supplies to the rear, hunting down devil followers who may have been hiding among the people, deciding on the treatment of those who surrendered when an aura of defeat was seen, organizing the bodies of dead devil followers, etc.
Because of this, she had no choice but to leave the rest of the work to the Inquisitor, who must have been too busy attacking this city. There was too little manpower.
“That’s not something you should ask for. “It’s something I should definitely do.”
“I know you’ll say that. However… aren’t you in a situation where you can’t even rest properly? “Only eight hours have passed since you collapsed.”
“it’s okay. I’m not the only one who couldn’t rest. “I can’t ignore my duty in a situation like that.”
“Is that so?”
“yes. The Demon Knight must have been like this too.”
The Archmage saw that even though his hair had been cut off once again, it was still shining.
Although I thought it was a good thing that they didn’t try to attack the Demon Knight due to this incident, I was slightly worried about the excessive respect for the Demon Knight.
This is because I wondered where that longing would go if the demon knight did not wake up.
“You shouldn’t overdo it.”
“Don’t worry. I don’t plan on applying too much force. “I know that I can save more people by moving forward rather than falling down.”
“…That is very correct.”
But even if that happens, the Inquisitor will not be lost. No, in the first place, I don’t think the devil knight will wake up.
She had no choice but to trust that man.
“…Now that I think about it, where did the thief go?”
Then, the Inquisitor, who seemed to be about to leave for a moment, turned around again. It was a question she might ask.
I’m just having a hard time answering it.
“Oh, he is… doing the job I gave him to do.”
“Is that so? “Then do you know where it is?”
“…I don’t know. Why are you looking for him?”
Considering the mission that the Archmage entrusted to the thief, it is not something that the Inquisitor would be happy to do.
If you explain the situation, they will understand, but the distance between the two will increase. We’ve barely become friends these days, so there’s no need to put a candle to that.
She pretended not to know.
“That’s…”
On the contrary, the Inquisitor looked like he was at a loss for an answer. The Archmage guessed why that was the case.
“I need to say thank you.”
The answer came quickly. A helpless, happy smile appeared on the Archmage’s face.
“I see. However, the work I asked him to do is very secret, so I advise you not to look for it now, Inquisitor. “He hasn’t left the city, so how about we tell him later… after he’s done what he has to do?”
“okay. All right.”
I still can’t let them meet separately.
“Then I will go.”
“please.”
She waved her hand and sent the Inquisitor off. And when the Inquisitor walked away, she turned her head back to her own business.
“Arch Mage! “There is a problem with the safe zone barrier!”
“This one comes first! We have discovered objects and materials developed by demon followers! “It’s like a study in mutant zombies and curse jars!”
…I didn’t realize in advance that additional work was coming.
maybe.
* * *
While the Archmage was busy with his own work, the Deathbringer hid himself in an alley. It was for the mission entrusted to him by the Archmage.
『I’m sorry.』
But that doesn’t mean he’s only focused on the mission.
He leaned against the wall and pondered the memories. The eyelashes of the dawn glow and the gray eyes that were dimly twinkling beneath them continued to overlap over the figure of the man who was tightly bound and was currently being sealed.
『I’m so sorry.』
Could there be an apology that feels so different in this world? It’s as incongruous as the word ‘glorious death’, but can there be a change that isn’t awkward?
Deathbringer’s feelings became complicated just thinking about that moment.
The demon knight at that time was clearly not a demon… but at the same time, it seemed like he was not the man he knew either. If he was a demon knight he knew, he would have left only a firm word instead of such a soft apology.
However, despite this, why does that subtle sense of discomfort not come across as a complete sense of discomfort?
Maybe that’s why the smiling face looked so harmless.
I will never hurt you. I’m sorry for hurting you. Because it was a smile that conveyed that sentence solely through facial expressions…
And yet.
He couldn’t do anything. Just because I don’t have the strength, honor, or power to make others follow me.
“Ha….”
I couldn’t even put the fallen person down, so I couldn’t treat him because his posture was so awkward.
I couldn’t say anything to the bishop who was running around saying I should be killed–thanks to his intentional ignoring–and when the sealing decision was made after the Archmage had barely persuaded me, I had no say whatsoever.
At the very least, no one listened to my appeal to remove only Karl.
I was helpless.
Just as he was unable to resist the moment the demon knight tried to kill him.
“shit.”
Tuk.
Deathbringer hit his head against the wall in anger just thinking about it.
A shallow sense of self-destruction settled in a corner of my head and I waved my hands. It was a feeling I had never felt before joining this journey.
Anyway, before he joined them, he was a person who was considered a ‘predator’.
He had no fame or power, but he could exist as an executioner of all kinds of trash when night and silence were together, so that was certainly the case.
But now? Gathering information and finding out the truth are some of his talents, but he cannot exist as an executioner.
When I decided to go with them, I thought I could do it… but it was a complete illusion.
The world they live in and the world he lives in are completely different.
It’s not that he can kill them because they’re human, just like he can only kill those who are human.
“Why the fuck did this happen?”
Then, for a moment, a sound broke him out of his thoughts from outside the alley where he was hiding.
The lethargy that was climbing up and trying to wet my brain was instantly suppressed and my cold reason focused on my five senses. He focused on his assigned duties.
“Be quiet if you don’t want to die.”
“Damn it. “I didn’t know that the demon followers would suffer…”
He melted into the shadows and listened to their conversation.
The complaints of those who removed the corpses from the castle and moved the remains of the collapsed building were very long.
“I can’t even enjoy it properly!”
“Where did you survive at least?”
“That’s true, but…”
As for their identity, they are pirates who followed the devil followers and surrendered like ghosts when they were defeated.
It seems like they will lose after selling their hometown, so they raise the flag. There are two types of sets, from traitors to traitors.
“Hurry up and move it. “If we don’t work, they might kill us.”
If you ask why such non-recyclable trash is still alive even after the main unit arrives, well, no.
I would answer that there were too many pirates left alive to threaten to execute them. If you want to kill them all, you have to be prepared to suffer quite a bit of damage.
“You really want to kill me? “How many of us are there?”
So, in order to buy time for additional support to arrive, the Archmage negotiated a temporary truce with a false bait – an amnesty – as he once did… and decided to keep them alive and use them as labor.
“You’re doing what you’re told to do! “You can’t kill us even though it’s like this!”
The result is the idiots, including the two people passing by.
Idiots who do not think about the sins they have committed and confidently say, ‘We have surrendered and are even doing some hard labor as you tell us, so we can live!’
“If we have to, we can just take ordinary people hostage and run away.”
There are even people who think like that.
They were such funny guys. It is wise to plan a retreat route in advance, but what shame do they have for planning a retreat route? Even if I die obediently, it’s not enough.
The Archmage who expected this would happen and asked for observation and surveillance was right.
Really evil people often think that even when they do something wrong, it is someone else’s problem.
“Access to places where civilians are is prohibited.”
“are you okay. Some of the guys I know are hiding there. Just tell them to take hostages.”
“You’re so quick to notice. “When did you hide?”
“I don’t know. “Maybe those pale bastards sneaked in while they were going around trying to save people.”
“Damn, I would too.”
Why are they pretending to be the ordinary people they slaughtered in order to live up to what they confessed to themselves?
“Unfortunately…”
But in this matter, he and the thieves who came with him were one step ahead.
“They’ve all been caught.”
Most of the pirates hiding among the civilians have already been hunted down.
What they are looking for now are dissatisfied seeds who can catch wind and lead a riot in an emergency situation. Since we are already so unstable, isn’t there a need to keep those who could ignite a time bomb alive?
Therefore, those guys are also subject to liquidation.
Deathbringer put his hand on his waist, pressing down the information. The fact that Kukri had been shattered by the demon knight was realized half a beat later.
“hmm.”
It’s unfortunate, but it doesn’t matter. It wasn’t a weapon he cared for very much… He could kill people even without a weapon.
Since he spent almost half of his short life doing such things.
“If Wall and Window found out, they would turn a blind eye…”
Deathbringer realized one thing at that point.
It is true that he is not helpful in the battle of superhumans, but… this kind of weeding out is impossible for demon knights, warriors, and arch mages. Only he can do this.
“But what are you going to do?”
And since only he can, he will not be left out of this party. I don’t want to be nagged, so I’ll keep it a secret from the hero, but anyway.
Deathbringer perked up his ears, feeling much better than before.
There is only one goal. Organize all of those things in advance so that the demon knight wakes up and doesn’t have to do anything more.
“Ah, it’s been a while since I cleaned out the trash.”
It was the moment when DeathBringe, a name given to very few even in the Information Guild, descended on the city.
The time has come for the wicked to be judged.
* * *
“…?”
“Why are you doing that?”
“Um… I think I just heard a scream.”
However, this back area is where wizards have installed a barrier to prevent the devil from entering.
Since it was hastily constructed, it would have broken through even if the devils gathered just a little, but it was structured so that wizards could notice if the barrier was broken.
If it is true that the devil broke through the barrier and killed people, there is no way he would be quiet.
“I didn’t hear it…”
“Yes, I think it’s because of my mood.”
So I guess I just heard it wrong. To begin with, it wasn’t a squealing sound, it was more of a cracking sound… like the sound of the wind being knocked out.
“Is there anything uncomfortable about it….”
“That’s not true.”
It’s true that I’ve been running this far without any proper rest since I arrived on this land, but that’s true for everyone. Even though she went to the front lines and had a particularly hard time, I don’t want to step back.
“Be prepared instead. “I see the devil.”
Instead, she took up arms to deal with the remaining demons and followers in the city center. At that moment, I saw a gargoyle hiding in the shadows of the city.
“Don’t overdo it.”
“This arrangement is okay.”
I can’t say my physical condition is perfect, but it’s not to the point where I can’t control my body or raise my divine power. The maximum available is only temporarily reduced.
“I will go alone.”
Still, it is not necessary to reach the usual maximum in order to kill the remaining remnants.
The Inquisitor adjusted the airway to prevent overload. Her body was imbued with less than 1/8 of the amount of energy compared to when she faced the demon knight.
A slight feeling of heat was added to the muscle pain that had not yet improved.
“Are you sure you’re okay? “You’ve only just woken up…”
“It’s really okay.”
It is true that divine power causes pain to the user, but if it is not used excessively, it often ends up causing body aches.
For a woman who can endure even the pain that causes her to become dizzy, it is not even possible for her to endure this pain. If you think about the demon knight who is fighting to the death with the demon wrapped in layers of seals, it is even more severe.
The Inquisitor strongly blocked out his worries and proceeded alone.
Squeak!
But maybe that’s why he wasn’t good at sneaking up on people. The gargoyle woke up.
At that point, she thought of Rogue for a moment. Since he was even behind the Great Devil, he would have been able to move without even being noticed by this guy.
I felt envious for a moment, but it quickly dissipated.
Although she may not have the talent to walk stealthily, this is rather comfortable for her. There are also things I want to try.
“Sigh!”
The Inquisitor swung his mace at the creature that came down to the ground and bared its teeth at her. thud. The ground in front of the mace shook.
Sigh!
The gargoyle hurriedly tried to fly up, but it was impossible to attempt flight on the ground that had suddenly turned off. The divine power that radiated from the mace and flowed through the earth swept the gargoyle’s place.
“amazing…!”
“I can’t believe something like that is possible…”
The priests and heresy inquisitors behind him were astonished. It wasn’t something I couldn’t understand.
Even in a church with a long history, there was no one who used divine power in this way. More precisely, it’s the one that had no need to write like this.
“Hero, that’s….”
“It’s nothing special.”
“It’s a new usage. “It’s amazing.”
After all, divine power is a power specialized for protection, protection, and healing.
Moreover, those with a lot of divine power moved towards priests who could heal people and purify the land rather than heretic inquisitors.
There is no way that the Heretic Questioners, who have a hard time protecting and protecting their own bodies, could develop such technology. This was possible purely because, as a Heretic Questioner, she was able to handle sacred powers outside of the standards.
It was only after she saw what the demon knight did that she thought, ‘Couldn’t I do that too?’ It’s just something I came up with based on my concerns.
“If you do it well… it will be a great weapon.”
“I think so too.”
But not right now. It required too much sacred power and was not standardized.
I needed to use it more and in different ways to get a feel for it. This incident made her realize her own shortcomings very much.
“If you need help, please let me know anytime.”
“Thank you for your kindness.”
The Inquisitor advanced again, constantly assessing the amount likely to be available.
Besides helping others, she had another reason not to collapse.
“There’s a devil there too!”
“I will kill you. And one of you, please go inside the red-roofed house over there. There will be a person inside. “If I tell you that I came back after catching the dragon, they will understand.”
“All right.”
Most priests, including the bishop, are afraid of demon knights. And if she overdoes it and falls again… they might sentence her to death because there is no one to stop the demon knight.
Even if she asked for it. The title of warrior only makes it easier to persuade church members, but is not their superior.
If they ignore her requests, there is nothing she can do to stop them.
That just has to be stopped.
So the Inquisitor suppressed his impatience and moved forward step by step. Although I wasn’t able to rest properly, I was able to endure the accumulated fatigue as I adjusted my speed and moved forward.
At this rate, we will be able to clean up the city and save the people by tomorrow morning.
Also, if this happens before the Demon Knight awakens…she may be able to protect the Demon Knight’s seal.
If that happens, even the bishop won’t want to harm him just because there’s no one to stop him.
The green eyes that had achieved the perfect goal sparkled.
It was immediately after that that demons began to disappear from the city.
Each day began to pass by quickly.
