027. Spirit Sword (4)
“You mean like this?”
“As expected, Arwen is quick to understand. Because the teacher makes it easy.”
“That’s too much praise.”
“Me too! Please see me too.”
‘Damn it.’
The Heretic Questioner couldn’t understand why he was being fooled under the pretext of physical training in the backyard of the mansion.
In addition, seeing a man and two women conversing affectionately there, abusive words that were not appropriate for a priest walking the path of faith came out.
‘A f*cking bastard.’
In fact, it was also something that he himself had brought on by declaring surrender without confronting head-on. But it wasn’t a sack of barley that I had borrowed, and if I was going to treat it like this, why did I call it the mansion?
“Oh, you must be having a hard time. What should I do?”
In addition, the existence that made him suffer even more was the existence of a beautiful woman with green hair. She was covering her mouth as she looked at his trembling arm, but instead of her words, her eyes were full of laughter.
Saint Cecilia. Seongguk, furthermore, why is she, the pride of the continent, together with this monster? Even though the two were very close, the distance was oddly close.
…… To be precise, the feeling that Cecilia was clinging to a man named Veris was strong.
“Is it hard?”
“Oh no!”
As Veris, who had been helping Arwen and Cecilia practice for a while, approached him, the Heretic Questioner suddenly changed his posture.
Yeah, do you really have to stick around? Even if he just moved one step, he could feel the processed mana piercing his skin.
“Your man, last night I saw him having a blast in the business district.”
Fast deuk.
The Heretic Questioner gritted his teeth at Veris, who calmly told the truth. The Holy Knights, the pride of the Holy Kingdom, drank alcohol when they came to another country for a mission?
‘f*ck you bastards.’
I would be lying if I said that my superiors are being humiliated like this and they are not annoyed because they are drinking.
But the unfortunate reality is that whether they do or not, Veris has his leash on him.
“What should I do with you? I am very worried.”
“…… How are you doing? What does that mean?”
“It’s useless. I can’t just send it because I’m annoyed.”
“… ….”
The Heretic Questioner shut his mouth at Veris’ terrifying voice.
It’s because I felt that the more I talked to this erratic man, the more I would lose.
“Ah!”
“…… ?”
“It would be appropriate to use it as a training tool.”
“What, what?”
“Recently, Arwen has hit a wall and has a lot of worries. Are you going to have to suffer?”
The Heretic Inquisitor’s face started to turn red at the peaceful voice of Veris.
I am someone.
He is the Heretic Inquisitor. As a priest from the Holy Land, the highest rank among the field positions held was himself.
But what? Using the great priest himself as a tool for training?
It’s a sound that makes the veins rise in the neck. Moreover, the opponent is a pagan elf swordsman. Naturally, he couldn’t accept this reality.
“No! I will refuse How can I help a wicked pagan to train!”
“Don’t like it?”
“Yes. I am also proud of being a member of the Seongguk!”
“…… You say so? Cecilia.”
“Oh, this person doesn’t seem to know. The Bible says not to distinguish between pagans and heretics, but to embrace them with inclusiveness.”
“…… Keugh! Whose side is the saintess on?”
“I am always on the side of justice.”
“What? Then, are you saying that I, who is fulfilling the duties of the Holy Kingdom, am not justice?”
Even if she is a saint with a ceremonial rank second only to the pope, she cannot criticize a priest who sits in the seat of the Heretic Inquisitor so easily. Looking at the heretic inquisitor with her sullen face, Cecilia nodded her head without a moment’s thought.
“Isn’t it justice to falsely frame an innocent academy student and plan to send him back to the Holy Land?”
Despite her young age, the heretic inquisitor shut her mouth at Cecilia’s eloquence, who made a family of her theology. She couldn’t believe that she knew so many saints who were close to honorary positions without any power.
“Then, let’s prepare soon.”
─Giying.
After Veris’ words, a vast amount of mana began to emanate from his body.
A majestic sight literally like a tidal wave of mana. The mana, powerful and huge enough to feel the bizarreness, soon engulfed the entire backyard where they were located.
“Oh, Lord.”
The Heretic Inquisitor looked for God because of his abnormal appearance, which made him feel dizzy.
As expected, I didn’t have to check my skills with my body. Just by looking at that scene, he realized that even if the best of the Holy Kingdom stepped forward, he would not be able to compete with Veris.
“What are you doing?”
“…… ?”
“Without preparation.”
Perhaps it has already been decided that he and the elf swordsman will fight, and Veris’ calm voice makes the heretic inquisitor lose his mind.
This guy is sincere. He was trying to use himself as a tool to help the elves train!
So, now the Heretic Questioner was in a position to feel unfair. It is true that he entered the academy with unclean intentions. However, there is even a saying called the principle of presumption of innocence, so how can you persecute yourself like this!
“Isn’t it fine if you help that elf train?”
In the end, the Heretic Questioner, who could not stand it, protested to Veris in a voice full of resentment.
Actually, it was a theory. Berris is strong. Therefore, it was only reasonable for a master with advanced skills to teach.
“I can’t fight Arwen. My flat hit is a flat hit that will really pierce the sky.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“And look. Is it possible to wield a weapon against that cute guy?”
The Heretic Inquisitor frowned and turned his head away.
At the end of his gaze, a blonde elf was standing with an old iron sword, but he also had eyes, so I could tell that his off-white color wasn’t normal at all.
“Ears are cute…… You are too playful.”
“It’s true, what should I hide?”
“Huh.”
The Heretic Inquisitor laughed at the sight of the sesame seeds pouring out again. Damn it How do you think they’re going to be newlyweds?
“To the location.”
Because of Veris’ jaw, the Heretic Questioner eventually had no choice but to stand face to face with the elf in the backyard. Looking up at his proud giant scythe, I could see that the elf’s skills weren’t low.
“Get started.”
“Tahab!”
The Heretic Inquisitor started running toward the heretics to relieve his resentment.
Anyway, the venue is dominated by that monster with mana. Even if he unleashes a bit of a trickle, it’s clear that that man will stop it before it happens, so what’s hesitating?
“Die!”
─Huung!
The Heretic Inquisitor approached Arwen and cut it with a scythe.
From noble mtl dot com
Impact is the law in which the speed and weight of an object are transmitted together. Knowing that fact to the bone, he put all his energy into his first attack.
Kang!
“Huh?”
But Arwen’s response was also very gentle.
Rather than confronting her strength with strength, she simply deflected the impact of her scythe by raising her sword at an angle.
“You dare!”
He is a Heretic Inquisitor who has already defined his opponent as an evil heretic. He cried out as his attack in vain cut away his ground.
The divine mana began to fluctuate in response to his will. Since this space itself was already occupied by Veris, it couldn’t exert much power, but it was a different way compared to attacks that do not contain mana.
“Be careful! That person has mastered divine mana. Divine mana has stronger properties than ordinary mana!”
The Heretic Inquisitor cried at the voice of Cecilia, who now openly supported the elves.
This was not a place for her to set foot on.
* * *
“Whoa.”
Arwen looked at the opponent of the duel that started out of nowhere.
A tall enemy who wields a scythe as tall as a man. If she hadn’t had Berry’s strong back, she might have been frightened of her strong enemy.
But beside her was Veris, who gave her warm eyes. That’s why Arwen couldn’t give up.
“Hot!”
A heretic inquisitor with a golden glow that comes crashing through. Ever since he found out that what he was originally aiming for was Berry’s neck, he’s a person I can’t get enough of.
─Hung!
Avoid the scythe that cuts horizontally. And Arwen’s stab, like a thunderbolt.
It happened in the blink of an eye, but as if he was already familiar with the attack, he avoided the attack by slightly turning his head.
A situation where it is difficult to land a valid attack even if the attack hits. Arwen thought.
‘How?’
It is a mighty enemy like Mount Tai. She knew that even though she was not able to show her spirit under the power of Veris, she was not at a level that she would think easily.
“Like a fly!”
The Heretic Inquisitor, who continues to attack fiercely, as if he felt that the fact that he was exchanging fierce battles was humiliating.
With his specialty, quick movement, he let it go and avoided it, but thanks to the lack of visibility of a counterattack, Arwen had no choice but to allow the attack in the end.
─Puck!
“Wow!”
“Keukkeuk. A mediocre academy student dares to deal with me?”
Could be called misfortune or good fortune to be hit by the hilt rather than the blade of the sharp sickle. The throbbing pain in his beaten arm was unbearable.
But Arwen did not lose focus even in the pain.
Veris showed her mercy to a man who appeared out of nowhere and sought her own life. And having him duel and trying to solve Arwen’s troubles is good in his eyes, but how can he give up so easily?
“I’ll give you credit for your mental strength!”
At Arwen’s counterattack, which allowed the attack, the heretic inquisitor, who had distanced himself, began to attack again with a fierce roar.
Even at this moment, the golden divine mana was hovering around her scythe to cut Arwen, and the aura she felt reminded her of her fear.
─Kagagak! Phut!
“Wow!”
In the end, things started to go even worse.
It’s Arwen who has noticeably slowed down since he’s already allowed her blows. However, contrary to her, the Heretic Inquisitor’s attack was stronger and faster, and eventually, after another collision between mana and mana, the shock that blew away Arwen’s body.
“That mental power is imaginary.”
“… ….”
At his confident voice, Arwen swallowed her dry saliva.
If this had been a real battle, Arwen would have run into a situation where she would have lost her life, needless to say. Fortunately for her, the fact that now is a real battle that doesn’t feel like a real battle.
When her thoughts reached that point, Arwen’s complexion quickly darkened.
From the moment she was captured by a slave trader when she was young and taken to the Wittelsbach estate until now, Arwen has grown up with Veris’ unconditional care.
She thought of herself as a flower in a greenhouse.
It would be more appropriate to describe it as a burden, as it puts all my lifelong effort to stand proudly by his side and is at such a disastrous level.
Her bitter melancholy was eating away at her. Perhaps, if she feared hurting herself again, Veris would stop her duel and comfort her with his warm, caring words.
‘I hate it.’
It wasn’t that I didn’t like Veris’ warm voice.
Just, just…… She just wanted to stand by him as someone who wasn’t lacking.
Staggering up, Arwen looked around and saw Veris looking at her warm eyes from her corner of the backyard.
Looking at that figure, I don’t know why, but I feel that her whole body is full of vitality and her fighting spirit is burning again.
─Puuong!
“Awesome!”
However, the will and reality build a wall that is terribly large.
The Heretic Inquisitor seemed to have no intention of stopping Arwen’s offensive at the changed atmosphere.
Fishing.
Eventually, the shrapnel from the giant scythe that was cutting her land began to make tiny scars on Arwen’s body.
In a way, it was also a miracle that despite this clear difference in power, she didn’t get any noticeable scars.
‘…… Uh?’
When Arwen’s pupils begin to tremble violently at the complexity of despair and hope coexisting.
Even though he could see the heretic inquisitor slowly approaching, Arwen could only keep his mouth open in a daze.
What caught her eyes was a whitish halo of light.
At first, there was only one cluster of lights, but soon there were dozens of them, and then it became a gigantic feast of light enough to fill the space.
But when I looked around, neither Veris, nor Cecilia, who looked worried, nor her enemy, the Heretic Inquisitor, seemed the same as before.
‘What…… ?’
Now, he is a close opponent.
But not seeming to mind his presence, Arwen blankly reached out and touched the light.
