I Will Smash Everything With My Passive Skills

073. Faith (3)

How would you feel if your lifelong faith was denied?

Take Earth’s religious people as an example.

They go on a rampage even if there is no evidence of their faith in front of them.

Then, how will the religious people living in Veris react?

“…… Why?”

Unapint Lunaciel. It was now that her faith, who was born in the Holy Land and lived her entire life in the Holy Land, was denied.

She did not doubt the supreme will of her existence, which gave her orders.

She thought she was fulfilling the will of the great god who gave her powers.

But.

“What are you doing?”

At the sight of Veris asking while holding a sword, Yuna Pint’s golden pupils trembled sharply.

“This, this… ….”

She knew it too.

A divine power wielded by a high-ranking priest, a miracle.

What does the existence of the opponent that the miracle cannot reach mean?

“I know you were trying to do something annoying.”

Veris slowly walked towards Yuna Pint.

As if she had no means of resistance other than the ‘miracle’ she possessed, she was slowly backing away with a blank face at Veris’ appearance.

“Everyone, don’t come closer.”

“hahahaha.”

It was only natural to burst out laughing at such a reaction.

If what she just heard is correct, it is she who offered her prayers to take away Veris’ sight.

But what?

Just because you’re finally showing that kind of reaction, did Veris have any obligation to listen to you?

“Why me?”

Raising her mana, Veris was standing in a brilliant pure white light.

It was too sacred and beautiful to be dismissed as an ordinary academy student, so Yuna Pint, who had been wielding a miracle until just now, seemed to have gone out of his mind.

“Mr. Berris!”

But there was someone who painfully stopped Verice.

Cecilia, a girl who was aware of the danger and urged Veris to spread her distance.

“I know I’m not one to dare to say that. But…… This is the person we need right now!”

“Necessary?”

Verys couldn’t understand.

Normally, she is Cecilia who trusts and follows Veris. But now, as if she knew something about her, she was shouting with her face full of determination.

“Ser, no way… ….”

To my surprise, it was Yuna Pint who responded to Cecilia’s confident voice.

For some reason, she was looking at Veris and Cecilia alternately.

“It is forbidden to use in peacetime, but priests can wield the power of truth.”

“The power of truth?”

“My first priority is to subdue her with the miracle of her truth, her strength, and to dig up her information.”

Cecilia sounds scary at first glance, as if the divine mana used by the priests also had other powers.

Veris, able to understand what Cecilia meant, nodded her head.

“The most fundamental power in divine mana is the power to determine the truth. This is possible because the god of light presides over justice and judgment.”

“Does that mean you will use your powers against that priest?”

“That’s right. Especially the miracle of truth that I deal with as a saint is even more powerful.”

“The priest is not permitted to use that power! Isn’t it Cecilia who doesn’t know that?”

Cecilia shook her head slowly at the sight of Yuna Pint shouting in protest.

The reason was simple. She had so many reasons to ask her for her information.

“All we need to do is find out why Yunafint is trying to harm Veris. Simple, right? Of course, I’ll have to deal with them first.”

Tadadak!

A group of people were running towards the place where Cecilia’s gaze reached, emitting ferocious momentum.

A sticky black mana. It was a self-evident fact that their affiliation was not the academy.

“Good idea. There are so many things we still don’t know.”

Veris smiled coolly at them.

For some reason, it felt like things were easily resolved.

It was then.

“This, I was almost late for the banquet.”

The face of the priestess, Yunafint, turned gray at the relaxed voice of an old man who couldn’t grasp the situation.

It’s been a long time since her composure disappeared from her. It was thanks to the fact that Veris saw the fragments of her power with her own two eyes right in front of her.

“I will help the apostle!”

At the first appearance of the group, including the old man, Veris immediately looked at them with an absurd expression.

First of all, it was very clear that the identity of these people, led by the old man who had just appeared, was the Demon Cult.

“…… Why are the priests of the Holy Land and the Demon Cult moving together?”

The mana full of filth felt from the old man is definitely black mana like the symbol of the Demonic Cult.

The golden glowing mana felt by Yuna Pint is definitely the sacred mana of the priests of the Holy Kingdom.

That means…….

“These are crazy people.”

Verys’ short and honest voice resonated throughout the hall.

Berris had no intention of avoiding the impending battle or hiding it anyway.

But isn’t this a story that has crossed the line for a long time?

The Devil’s Cult, it was definitely not a normal situation for those terrible bastards to have some sort of connection with the Holy Kingdom.

“Cecilia, now I understand what you are saying.”

“…… Even though I belong to the Seongguk, there were many things I couldn’t understand at times. Even if the Heretic Questioner came to catch Veris-sama in the past.”

Verice nodded her head at Cecilia’s voice with her hard expression on her face.

Speaking of the Holy Kingdom, it was Veris, who knew almost nothing except Cecilia.

I don’t know if it’s part deviation or if it’s corrupted to the bone.

“As you said, only the two of us need to be alive to dig up information.”

It was funny that she had appeared so cheerfully, and those who greeted Veris with a cold expression flinched.

Contrary to what I thought she was a slightly gifted academy student, it was because the power she felt was huge like a tidal wave.

“You came like ants. I never thought there would be so many Demonic Cultists hiding there.”

The pure white mana of Veris spewed out light.

What they faced was the cold smile of Veris.

“No, that is too much to ask.”

“Don’t you know the dean anyway? Neither Berrys-sama nor I am a person who is not fit for an ordinary class.”

“Okay… ….”

The dean made a sound of anguish that made it hard to believe that he was a powerful person in this gigantic Academy City.

The reason was simple.

It was because a girl and a boy who came to him unexpectedly demanded that Verice be promoted to the S class.

Of course, the dean also agreed to promote his partner Berrys to the S class.

“However, if a student from Class B is promoted to Class S at once, there will definitely be complaints from all over the place! If you do it slowly, they will promote you on their own!”

In the end, the dean spat out a scream like scream at the young students.

The dean’s position has been in jeopardy ever since the devil’s cult, those filthy, chewy bastards went on a rampage.

It’s obvious that the professors who stumble over a trivial matter right now will find fault with it.

“Dean. Trust me, Gunther. Hasn’t Veris already proven his abilities?”

Beatrice and Gunther’s request was simple.

Please upgrade Beatrice and Veris to the S class.

Actually, it wasn’t a difficult request. Transfer students and current students are all those who have proven their abilities in the midterm evaluation.

However, a practical problem was holding back the dean. The dean was very uncomfortable with the noisy professors.

“Your… ….”

Thump!

“Dean!”

The dean, who was about to say his thoughts, frowned.

This guy and that guy have recently entered, and they knock loudly on the door, as if the respect for the dean has completely disappeared.

Thump!

“It is urgent!”

A voice erupted from outside the door once again.

At that, the dean shouted with an incomprehensible expression.

“Come in!”

Kiki!

The door to the dean’s office opened and the man who entered was a man the dean knew well.

A professor of elemental science who teaches class A students. He was in such a hurry that he had cold sweat all over his face.

“What’s your business?”

“That…… !”

A professor who alternately looks at the dean and students as if the existence of the two students is uncomfortable.

The dean shook his head and said.

“It doesn’t matter, if it’s urgent, tell me right away.”

“…… !”

Hearing the dean’s strong will, the professor made a surprised face.

It was a rather hot decision to go to school, who was terribly aware of other people’s notice.

“Currently there is a battle in the commercial district. Horror Beasts are a group presumed to be the Demon Cult. The winner of the midterm evaluation, Veris von Wittelsbach, and Saint Cecilia de Frey!”

The dean’s face contorted once again at the professor’s cry that made him lose his sense of reality.

“Students and faculty must be evacuated, and professors capable of using force must be dispatched!”

How has your position weakened so much? It was thanks to the incident when those damn bastards occupied the dormitory building. But again?

Amidst the expression of whether he was crying or laughing, the dean gathered the anger boiling deep inside and shouted in a low voice.

“The Devil’s Cult, you bastards!”

Whether he did it or not, the brother and sister who heard the news together quietly rose from their seats.

Dreuk!

“Let’s go first.”

The two men and women with hardened faces do not hesitate at the information.

The road from the administrative district where the dean’s office was located to the commercial district was not far.

I couldn’t even sense the slightest hesitation in the steps of Gunther and Beatrice as they hurriedly left.

It’s been a while since Arwen asked the spirits to find Veris.

Thanks to the fact that she heard soon, she had no choice but to harden her face.

“It is urgent.”

“My dear, tell me in an easy-to-understand way.”

Arwen’s voice moving with the Grand Duke.

The Grand Duke was pounding his chest as if he was frustrated.

“A battle has broken out. It’s not too far from here. Berrys-sama is also there.”

“Who is that person?”

“Demonicism. They were still there in the academy.”

Awesome!

The Grand Duke gritted his teeth at Arwen’s brief explanation.

The enemies of her father, whom she thought were tumors to be removed from this world, were also living and breathing nearby, just as she expected.

It is unknown whether those who are fighting now are the leaders of the Demonic Cult, as reported, or if they are just their henchmen.

But the certainty was that Archduke Evangeline had no intention of letting them live. Even if she crumbles all over her body.

“Eggplant.”

After the archduke’s low voice, the two women began to move.

The destination was said to be close.

There was no need to wait.
