The Priest of Corruption - Chapter 222
Conclusion.
Conclusion.
Both Pearly and Dacia didn’t come back after a long time, so when I went out to find them, I worried about what to do if I couldn’t find them because it was late at night, but it was all for nothing.
bang! bang! Quaang!!!
On the half-crushed, wreckage-filled pier, gigantic water pillars were constantly wreaking destruction like living creatures, and a woman in white clothes was evading all the attacks with her very agile movements between the gigantic water pillars.
No, I didn’t expect it to be such a big accident.
Before jumping right in and stopping them, I quickly checked how much they ate.
Fortunately, this place was at the end of a long wharf, and judging from the wreckage and the situation around it, it seemed that they did not hit the docked ship directly, even though they might have hit the pier and destroyed it.
‘Say hat!’
Mother didn’t know what was so fun, but she said, ‘Fight! Destroy it!’ and cheered the two of them.
In the meantime, the fight between the two had no sign of ending at all, and it was clear that the amount we had to repay to the Northern Empire would only increase. Plus, I don’t know much about the laws of the Northern Empire, but I’m pretty sure it would be a crime to destroy all the state-owned docks like this.
As if in response to my concerns, the flames fluttering through the darkened streets of the Northern Empire were quickly approaching this place.
Is it a security guard?
Yes, this place was not a lawless zone, so it was only natural that the public authorities would be dispatched if there was a riot like that.
what to do
‘Say hat!!!’
My mother didn’t know how quickly I was disturbed, and she was just busy enjoying the situation to the fullest.
Right now, I had two options.
First of all, dry up Pearly and Dakia and run away to catch up, or if that’s not the case, let the two of them fight for a while, block that security guard from coming in right away, and sell the name of the high-ranking person and do it right away.
Is it a fight after the line is closed or a fight after the line is closed?
I was weighing one of the two options, and soon I leaned towards the latter.
The former was an act of ignoring the public authority of the Northern Empire, and there was a high possibility that the incident would escalate for no reason. Anyway, since most of the place where the two were fighting was already crushed, it didn’t seem like there was anything more to break without stopping them right away.
“mother.”
‘killing?’
“Take a look and try again. First of all, I need to explain to those who come from the other side what they are doing and ask for their understanding. It’s difficult when things get too big.”
‘Murder…’
A word that I know. Without regret, I left behind the ‘place that used to be a wharf’ where destruction continued noisily and headed towards the fast-approaching group of lights.
It would be better to sell the name of Soldos first.

Boom!!!
The spout of a huge stream of water crashed into the floor. Pearly turned lightly to get out of the pillar’s aftermath. Soon, the floor Pearly stepped on caved in, shaking her center of gravity, and at the same time, a blunt rock shot rapidly from the other side.
“It’s kind of boring.”
Pearly twisted her back slightly and kicked off a rock the size of a man’s body. The boulder that had been hit flew away and fell helplessly to the ground.
She lowered her outstretched leg and smiled.
The crushed pier was full of artificially raised rock pillars everywhere. Pillars that Dacia raised to hide herself from Pearly.
Pearly spoke in a languid voice to Dakia, who was hiding somewhere.
“Suddenly, these thoughts will come to your mind.”
Even though there were more ways to do it, all the attacks that flew towards Pearly were blunt. High-pressure water streams and blunt rocks that have just flown in.
All of those means were closer to subduing someone rather than killing them.
Pearly made that point. She stretched out her crimson tongue and licked her lips before speaking.
“’Oh, it would be much easier to kill.’ That’s what you think.”
“I know I am you.”
A blunt word.
Dacia was nowhere to be seen, but Pearly easily located her in the direction the voice came from.
No, if you really wanted to find it, you could find the location of Dakia long ago.
But it didn’t. Because her purpose was not to crush Dakia in the first place.
“Isn’t it polite for people to show their faces when they are having a conversation?”
“Who was the first one who wasn’t polite? It’s you, Pearly. It’s like scratching people’s insides while knowing everything.”
Dakia appeared from behind a pillar with a muffled voice. Seeing that, Pearly smiled a little thicker.
“Huh. Would it be okay if I showed up like that? Then what if you get scolded by me? huh? huh?”
“Iknow, right.”
low cerebral palsy. Along with the flow of magical power, a very sharp spear of ice appeared on Dakia’s shoulder. The spear of ice was shot at Pearly without an inch of delay. Pearly still smiled and just quietly held out one palm.
fast.
The spear of ice, which flew in quickly, could not pierce even one of Pearly’s white gloves and shattered into pieces. The scattered ice powder glistened in the moonlight.
Pearly brushed her hands and laughed bashfully.
“Are you sneaking around to see if it’s okay to go this far?”
Dacia quietly looked at Pearly’s condition and smiled.
“No matter what I do, it won’t be easy to kill you in one blow.”
“that’s right! My body is pretty strong! Hi-Hi.”
“Even if it’s a real body, if it doesn’t die, I can take it to the priest of the Restoration Church and save it.”
“Hoo.”
Pearly smiled wider than any smile she had ever shown.
“You finally have the heart to do it right! Tired of waiting for me, I almost pouted!”
Dacia responded to Pearly’s smile with a cool smile.
“Shut up. Because you are really unlucky.”
“You talk too much! Hi-Hi!”
After those words, the two began to act at the same time as if they had been waiting.
Pearly spurned her seat and quickly closed the distance with Dakia. As if in response, Dacia hid herself behind the rock pillar she had exposed herself to.
“Hi-Hi! Are you covering your eyes and screaming?”
Purley moved forward without hesitation, swinging her leg like a whip and kicking the thick pillar of rock to break it.
Quaang!
Beyond the collapsing pillar, I could see the figure of Dakia, her lips constantly moving. Pearly aimed at Dacia with the tip of her finger, then withdrew her finger again.
“You can’t kill me. cancer. No way.”
In the current situation, right before seizing the vessel of the gods, she shouldn’t have been hated by Marnak yet. In addition, I don’t know if that Dakia knows, but if you put your life and Dakia’s lives on each end of the scale on the scale in Marnak’s heart and weigh them, the scale will tilt in the direction of Dakia’s weight.
So Dacia shouldn’t have been seriously hurt. It was not her purpose to offend Marnak.
“As expected, killing is much easier and simpler. Whatever it is.”
Perley decided to take a little more hassle. So far, everything has been going as expected.
In the distance, she could see Dakia quickly touching the ground.
A far greater amount of mana than ever before fluctuated. Dacia’s golden eyes shone brightly, and the river that ran across the Northern Empire vomited itself out.
The water spewed out by the river turned into a huge waterspout and soared into the sky. Pearly admired a little.
“Come on. This is… unexpected.”
The rising dragon current turned its head. A huge column of water was bending to slam my head into the ground like a living being.
Woo woo woo.
A low cry from the curved dragon current spread with a deep resonance.
If I run right now, can I get out of that range?
Pearly shook her head as she calculated the size of the waterspout.
‘It won’t be fun if I avoid it.’
dismissal.
Flashes of light flew out. It was after Dakia completed another spell while Pearly lost an eye for a while. She grinned as she held the fluctuating lightning bolt like a spear in one hand.
“If you really die, it will be very difficult, so please don’t die.”
Just when Pearly was about to say something, Dakia let go of the lightning bolt she was holding. As soon as it escaped her hands, the large stem of the two-pronged lightning bolted into the falling waterspout.
While the tornado embraced the lightning, the remaining small lightning streak crushed the tip of Pearly’s finger, which he quickly spread to block Dakia’s thunderbolt.
Pearly grinned at her stingy fingers.
“This is a big deal…”
Quaaaaaang!!!
A thunderbolt-laden dragon current engulfed Pearly. Dacia finished the spell she had memorized to avoid being caught up in the aftermath she created. As the streamlined rocks rose from the floor and wrapped around Dakia, the aftermath of the dragon’s current awaited them and hit the rocks roughly.
After a short time, Dakia suddenly became frightened.
She gathered everything that was swept away by the atmosphere and crashed into it, but the worry of what to do if Pearly was seriously injured or something crept into her mind.
Dacia hurriedly came out of the shelter she had created to examine the situation.
The water that had not yet drained from the pier sat down as if it had been dug up by a huge dragon, and the water was up to the ankles.
“Pearly…?”
The water covered the floor and the brightly shining moon above it. I couldn’t see Pearly anywhere.
Dakia, who was about to call Pearly once again, staggered from the momentary vertigo and managed to regain her balance.
I’ve used too many large-scale magic tonight. A feeling of exhaustion ran through her body. Dacia intuitively understood the current situation.
He couldn’t use even one more spell.
Then, a cold, hard touch pressed against her earlobe.
“Hi-Hi.”
Dakia, who suddenly bit her ear lobe, tried to distance herself in disgust, but a hand covered with a white glove grabbed her neck. Pearly, wet and muddy, smirked.
“If so, did I win?”
Dacia closed her eyes and sighed.
“is it so. you won What to do now…”
He groaned.
The sound of someone falling. Dacia opened her eyes again as the grip on her neck was released.
Only then did she see Pearly properly. A red liquid trickling down through the muddy white clothes. A long shard of rock protruded through Pearly’s side.
“Pur furly! Are you okay?”
“I’m so sick I think I’ve already died twice…”
“I’ll take you where I can heal you! Just a little bit of Joe.”
Dakia picked up Pearly and ran to the corner of the pier where not even a shape was left. Dacia constantly talked to Pearly throughout the run.
“Are you still awake?”
“…No, I think he’s already half-dead…”
“I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I don’t think it would hurt much if it was Fur Pearly… It shouldn’t be so bad between co-workers…” ”
…Are you sorry for me?”
“I’m so sorry.”
Pearly said weakly with her eyes closed.
“Then get closer to me from now on…”
Pearly’s words didn’t quite end.
“What are we supposed to do when we see a wizard who destroys the docks all by himself? I’ve never seen a wizard as great as that.”
“If it’s black, what can I do? Besides, since that mage is also a living creature, there must be limits. Unless it’s God, if he’s set up like that, at least he won’t be able to run wild tonight.”
Five masked men walked out as if they had waited impatiently to leave the pier. Armed with well-groomed leather armor and swords, the men drew their swords.
Dacia frowned as she hugged Pearly.
“Who are you?”
“Someone has something to do with the guys who flirted with you during the day and got crushed.”
“I’ll compensate you with money for hurting them, so can you step aside for now?”
For now, the priority was to treat the injured Pearly. Despite Dakia’s polite request, the men shook their heads.
“We also want to get money in our hearts, but our boss seems to have a slightly different idea. You ordered us to bring you with you.”
“As you can see, there is a person who is in urgent need of treatment right now. Why don’t we leave the treatment first and talk?”
“Not even that.”
One of the men pointed the tip of her sword over Dacia’s shoulder at the scene of destruction she had created.
“Honestly, I want to give you time, but the problem is that we don’t have the confidence to overpower you who aren’t tired. Just ask me to follow you nicely. wizard girl.”
“If I follow you, what will Pearly do?”
He checked Pearly’s condition with a glance and shook his head.
“It looks like it’s already half-dead, so I’ll just leave it alone.”
“wait a minute.”
“Yes, if we follow each other well, it’s comfortable and good for each other. I’m glad the words went well.”
Dacia carefully leaned Pearl against the wall and whispered.
“It won’t take long.”
“Huh.”
“You make stupid choices.”
Dacia quietly drew her sword and lowered her stance.
“There’s no time, so hurry up.”
“knife? I’m sure I can’t use magic any more…”
“Bread!”
A head exploded like a firecracker. Surprised Dacia turned her head, and Pearly smiled weakly and wiggled her index finger.
“I still have one step left. Hee hee. I’ll shoot you if you think you’re in a lot of danger.”
