Because he didn't understand even a word of what Petichius said just now.Apart from knowing that his target was Emilia, and the reason was Emilia's identity as a 'silver-haired half-elf', he couldn't understand the rest at all.
'What is that 'trial'? '
"I said, can you explain a little bit more clearly?"
As if the opponent seemed to regard him as one of his own anyway, Subaru directly interrupted Petichius' self-aggrandizement.
"I don't quite understand it."
"……Well?"
Petichius was a little dazed, tilting his head in a way that normal people would never do, challenging the limits of the human cervical spine, and looked at Subaru.
As if he had discovered something incomprehensible, or as if he just figured out something that he hadn't figured out before, his eyes were full of strange expressions.
"This attitude... you are 'arrogant'!"
"This kind of strong 'fragrance' that seems to be concentrated by the love of all the witches in the world, and this attitude..."
As if realizing something, Petichius excitedly brought his face closer to Subaru, and shouted loudly, "You must be 'arrogant'!"
"Among the six archbishops of sin, only the position of 'arrogance' is still vacant, and you have such an attitude, and you are the proof that you are deeply loved by the witch."
"Ah, there is no doubt that you are arrogant!"
Petichius waved his arms excitedly, and said loudly: "When I was able to give the half-elf a trial here, at the same time, I found the only vacant 'arrogance'—"
"This is undoubtedly 'love'! It is the witch's doting on me, and it is the proof that I feel loved—!"
"Ah-"
Tears welled up in the corners of Petichius' eyes, and his words were full of madness.
"The brain is trembling—!"
Chapter 272 The Witch's Trial and Container
In charge of 'laziness', Subaru felt that he already had a deep understanding of what kind of person Petichius Romanee-Conti was.
It's not that he can't communicate, but that this person often falls into his own happy mood during the communication process, causing him to be left on the sidelines so stupidly.
Of course, this is a good thing in itself, the more Petichius is self-confident and wastes time, the more time he can create for Julius and others who are coming.
Maybe by the time the crowd surrounded the place, all the believers under Petichius would have been killed, and at that time, it would be enough to directly deal with the people in front of them in one go.
However, although he expected Petichius to continue to enjoy himself, it was clear that things could not always go as smoothly as Subaru expected.
Not to mention that he did not get the specific meaning of "trial" in Petichius's mouth, let alone that Petichius thought that he was the "arrogant" culprit, and brought him No small trouble.
Although there is a vacancy in the role of "arrogance" in the Witch Cult, and it is a coincidence that he happens to be the kind of person who is "favored" by witches in the eyes of the Witch Cultists, it makes him slightly doubt whether he will be the so-called "" arrogant'.
But obviously, facing the question suddenly raised by Petichius, this kind of old-fashioned plot that can be regarded as not used in novels, without any dramatic dramatic setting, is not worth considering at all up.
because--
"Speaking of which, you...should have received the gospel, right?"
Facing Subaru, Petichius asked strangely while leaning his body at an angle of 90 degrees.And this question can only be answered based on his "arrogance" as the Sin Archbishop of the Witch Cult.
To say why, because Subaru has never heard of such a thing as the 'gospel'.
Judging by the appearance of Petichius, it may be some kind of proof he possesses as the Archbishop of Sin, or it may be a way for him to test whether he is a companion.
But judging from Petichius's unwillingness to be fake, the 'Gospel'...is very likely to be something very important, something only bishops have.
"'Gospel'... let's not talk about that kind of stuff, my previous question hasn't been answered yet?"
Subaru raised his eyebrows, wanting to skip the Gospel and move the topic elsewhere.
"And I don't quite understand what you mean by 'arrogance'. If you say that you decide your position based on your character..."
Unexpectedly, Subaru thought of Miss System's evaluation of him when he was still in Crusch's mansion.
"'Arrogance'...what?"
If you don't look at whether there is a gospel, maybe he is really suitable for pretending to be 'arrogant', and it's not necessarily true.
'Now is not the time to think about this, and when I said you were 'arrogant' I didn't mean you could come to be the head of this MLM organization. '
Miss System's voice sounded, and the voice that only Subaru could hear was complaining about Subaru's thoughts just now.And the reason Miss System wanted Subaru to stop pretending to be 'arrogant' was because Miss System knew very well that Subaru...had really been the 'arrogant' of the Witch Cult.
Even now he doesn't remember these things at all.
'That's right...'
Subaru, who didn't know what Miss System was thinking, refocused on Sloth under Miss System's reminder.After all, it is now in the state of being deep behind enemy lines, so nothing can go wrong.
"The previous question?"
Petichius, who kept his upper body tilted at 90 degrees, looked at Subaru in confusion, as if he didn't understand what he was talking about.
"It's the trial you mentioned. You won't forget the specific meaning, right?"
At the same time as he said these words, Subaru's body tensed up, ready to fight at any moment.
After refusing to answer the question about the 'Gospel', he asked about the 'Trial' instead of telling the truth.Anyone with a sane mind will realize that something is wrong.
However, maybe Petichius was really out of his mind, he didn't realize what was wrong at all, instead he excitedly and seriously explained a series of things about the 'trial' to Subaru.
"Are you worried about the 'trial' going on...it doesn't matter."
Subaru raised his eyebrows. Petichius seemed to regard him as concerned about the progress and success of the trial, but Subaru was not prepared to refute this.
"It may take a long time for the news of the street blockade to spread. The trial is the same, there is still plenty of time!"
While biting his finger hard in such a way that Subaru felt pain just by looking at it, Petichius explained to Subaru without any doubts and with good intentions.
"Blocking the streets... exactly what measures have been taken?"
Although he already knew it in his heart, Subaru asked the question accordingly, and Petichius answered without hesitation.
"It's very simple. The word 'fog' should be used to explain everything."
"And over there, there are 'lust' and 'gluttony' guards. For the sake of the trial, our actions can be said to be diligent—!"
"That's it, I kind of understand."
The reason why the white whale appeared on the side of the big tree in Flügel was precisely because it was the only way from the king's capital to the territory of Roswaal Mezas. As long as it was blocked, the territory would be completely closed. Side can be said to be isolated and helpless.
And just like what Crusch was worried about, the two archbishops who will meet on the way back to the capital are not a coincidence, but will definitely appear there.
If you think about it this way, it is indeed the best choice for Reinhardt and Crusch to return to the capital together, so that the two bishops can be dealt with in advance, otherwise they will probably face the siege of three bishops Happening.
'Is this the benefit of being reborn? It can be said that everything was within Crusch's expectations, right? '
Subaru even felt that there was no need to work hard to obtain information. Anyway, Crusch and the others are all reborn. No matter what problems happen, just ask them at that time and they will definitely be able to solve them. ?
However, the moment this thought first arose, Subaru suppressed it.
This behavior of completely relying on others and doing nothing by himself is not acceptable to him, not to mention that just like the rebirth of Emilia Crusch and the others, no one can guarantee that there will be no changes in the future.
Gathering his mind, Subaru looked at Petichius.
"Using the 'fog' to block the streets to prevent people from obstructing the 'trial'...is it really effective?"
"Yes, trials are sacred and inviolable!"
When Petichius mentioned the test, Subaru's incomprehensible desire filled his whole body as if burning from within his body. He stretched his arms with all his strength, leaned back, and stared straight at the sky with bloodshot eyeballs. shouted.
"No matter how hard it is, if you don't overcome all difficulties to test, then you are insincere in love! Yes, for love! For the love that has been invested! For the love that has been given! We must repay it!"
Obviously, Petichius once again entered the realm of ecstasy, immersed in the "crazy" that only he himself could understand.
"All for love, die for love!"
"To the silver half-demon whose existence itself is blasphemy, ask the depth of the sin of its birth! Whether it is qualified to bear this sin, and test it!"
Speaking of this, Petichius seemed to have calmed down again, and stood up straight again, and retracted the tongue that had been protruded, but no matter whether it was the bloodshot eyeballs or the waving arms, there was nothing left. It proved that he was actually very excited.
"Yes, we must go to the test! Test whether it is not laziness, but diligence! Before everyone else, I will do it myself!"
"That is to say..."
Subaru interrupted Petichius, and asked with a frown, "The so-called 'trial' is, like she asked about the sin, and then tested whether she can bear the sin?"
Subaru couldn't figure out what crime Emilia had committed.After all, from what he said before, he can also hear that the reason why Petichius, or the Witch Cult, is eyeing Emilia is because she is a "silver-haired half-elf" who is related to "jealousy". Witches' exist with 'the same appearance'.
But, in the final analysis, it was all just writing rumors, and because of these rumors, the Witch Cult was going to do the so-called 'questioning' trial?
"That's right, the silver half-demon, who has the same figure as our 'witch', is going to test her..."
"This proves to us whether it is possible to become a 'container'—"
"container?"
Subaru suddenly felt something was wrong.
Although it is not clear what the "vessel" in Petichius's mouth specifically stands for, just this word is already very bad.
Containers are used to hold things. If Emilia is a container, then what is to be put into Emilia?
'Witch—'
Miss System gave a hint, and Subaru came up with an answer at the same time.
The "witch I'm waiting for" in the mouth of Petichius must be the witch of jealousy, and if Emilia is the container, then the only one who can hold it is the witch of jealousy who has been sealed for 400 years .
'Are these guys planning to resurrect the Witch of Envy? '
Subaru finally understood how crazy the Witch Cult really was.
"Now that I've gotten to know about it..."
Just when Subaru thought that the time was almost up, and the others should have arrived, Petichius also refocused his attention on Subaru.
"Speaking of...about 'arrogance' and 'witch factor'..."
Subaru raised his eyebrows, and he heard a new word.At least before that, he hadn't heard of such a thing as the 'witch factor'.
So for the reason of wanting to know more information, he didn't move, but continued to stand where he was.
"Must, listen..."
"Listen to the revelation of the Gospel, and only then—"
Tilting his head and staring at Subaru in a daze, Petichius suddenly took out a black book from his pocket.Instead of his crazy appearance before, Subaru realized that he was lovingly touching the book in his hand.
