The Paladin Owns the Relic

146 – Ancient Forest (6)

Screams were heard outside. Amar hugged the blanket.

I woke up on the way. I didn’t sleep well. The first time I tried alcohol, it tasted dizzy, and it was weaker than I thought, so I broke it quickly.

Sleep did not come even when I closed my eyes. Rather, her mind became clearer.

People’s screams.

I didn’t hate it. She also knew it was an unavoidable sound. However, as I listened to that sound, the memory of being experimented on passed by.

The scream he uttered. Emotions mixed in with a bit of intoxication lowered my mood to the bottom.

“Come on… Hard.”

When will you come back? Amar hugged her knees under her blanket. She quietly waited for him to return.

But then.

Something crawled under the covers.

“Hmm.”

Something small and soft. The blinking girl slipped between Amar’s arms.

The expressionless eyes. But for some reason, the shoulders seemed to tremble.

“……”

Amar, whose eyes met under the blanket, opened his mouth slightly.

For some reason, the cheeks look appetizing.

“Yum.”

I put the soft cheek in my mouth and mumbled.

The girl who came under the blanket, Maya made her face.

“Don’t do it. Load.”

“…A subordinate?”

“Yes. Load. The boss saw Maya and said that. A good boss must protect his subordinates.”

Maya stretched out her hand. Amar turned to her side and patted her on the head.

“Good. Kind.”

“……”

Did you come because you were shaking?

Amar widened his eyes. Then she quietly took Maya into her arms.

It’s a different feeling from holding Zahard. It’s soft and fits snugly in the bosom, it’s like hugging a pleasant doll.

I felt a slight tremor. Amar asked Maya sneakily.

“Maya…Right?”

“Yes. That’s right.”

“Maya. Do you know my name?”

“Subordinates. Amar. Remembering the names of subordinates is also the role of the boss.”

“Isn’t Maya… scared?”

“…Slightly.”

Maya groaned in her arms.

“It was like this before. There was always only screaming. The only things I remember are the painful ones.”

“…What do you mean?”

“My friends are going to grind to pieces. I have to clean it up with my own hands. Because Maya…Was a slave.”

Slaves.

Amar looked down at Maya. Her little head was shaking.

But even so, I could feel that she had given strength to her body, as if she did not want to show it.

“But not anymore. Maya is the boss. The second person of Zahard Company.”

“……”

“I am not afraid of screaming. There is only one thing that scares me the most.”

“…What is it?”

“Not having the boss next to you.”

Amar blinked his eyes. She hugged Maya even tighter.

“…Me too.”

I was saved because he held out his hand.

Because of him, he was able to stand here.

Eat a lot of delicious food, sleep in a soft place, and wash your body when you want to.

All.

It’s all he did.

But material things don’t matter. If it’s by Zahard’s side, I like mud baths. It’s okay even if it rains in the middle of the night.

I can stand a house with a hole in the ceiling. It doesn’t matter if you only eat meat once a week.

Stop it.

If only it would stop.

“…You…”

Amar murmured.

“Similar to me.”

“Maya and Amarga?”

“Yes. Similar Because I was a demon too. I’ve been stuck in jail all along Except for the blurry memories, it’s all memories in prison.”

“…Poor subordinate.”

“Still, Zahard is by my side. He stretched out his hand Me too… me too.”

The screaming stopped. Amar stroked Maya’s hair.

“…Sergeant Maya.”

“Huh?”

“Please take good care of me.”

“…Yeah!”

Maya rubbed her face. She was so cute that Amar laughed a little.

A brief exchange of warmth.

And that ended when Zahard opened the door and entered.

“Aren’t you sleeping yet?”

“Zahard!”

Thrown down, Maya rolled across the floor of her room. As she slammed into the wall, she looked at Amar clinging to Zahad.

“Ehehehe. I love you… I love you…”

“What’s up? You don’t look good.”

“Nothing happened! Are you okay. As long as I have you, I’m fine…”

Maya rubbed her red forehead.

“Maya is not okay.”

“Maya? What are you doing not sleeping?”

“President. Maya will become a tyrant. He knew it was useless to be nice to him.”

“What are you talking about?”

“The world is ugly.”

. . .

Pelacan opened her eyes early in the morning. She jumped up and opened the door and went out.

The morning she greeted rubbing her eyes was the same as any other morning. But she was different.

I didn’t see the village adults who always happen at the same time and in the same place.

“…Weird…”

Pelacan went around diligently. She checked all over town. She had many empty houses. Since she was wiped out once by the Witchbeast, there was nothing she could do about it.

But she was on the contrary, she survived but there were invisible ones. Most of the village youth.

They couldn’t be seen. She barely knocked on the dangling door and asked, but there was no answer. With pale faces, everyone is just burrowing into the futon.

Pelacan, who fell asleep early last night, was unaware of the circumstances. While everyone was silent, he headed to the town square alone.

In front of the village chief’s house. Spacious vacant lot.

All the villagers I was looking for were there. All broken somewhere.

“Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk::

“Keep…Ah…”

The crushed blood splattered everywhere. Those who could not speak were wriggling and suffering.

The body was all wet from the dew, and the bones protruding from the damp air seemed to be broken at the ends and could never be repaired.

Pelacan looked at them trembling. Those who were obviously fine until yesterday.

Someone was sitting in front of them. A face hidden in the shadow of a building.

But it was recognizable only by its appearance. Gorgeous appearance. Big stature.

I was carrying a different long spear than yesterday, but there is no doubt-

“Hey. Little.”

The priest who saved him.

“Call all the village elders. Everyone, even those who are locked in the house.”

“Ah… Ah…”

“Don’t say it twice.”

He nodded. Unlike the expressionless face I had seen the day before, he was very calm.

“A.”

Pelacan jumped. He gave all the voices he could. It went from house to house, croaking in a voice mixed with crying.

“The priest…All…All…”

It was different from what I had dreamed of. The gaze looking down at the village youth with expressionless eyes was not the hero’s.

A ruthless tyrant.

The punishment itself.

All the village elders hesitantly walked out. Pushing each other, they walked forward and stopped in front of the plaza.

The majority of people vomit because they can’t stand the rising nausea. Some held on to the building and shed tears.

“My God… My God…”

“Ah… What the hell is this…”

The priest stood up. He thrust his long spear into the ground and prayed faithfully.

“O sun. Look over.”

There was determination buried in the coolness.

The tone was not nice at all.

“These guys were the ones who attacked last night, aiming for our money and party.”

Everybody froze. Not a word came out. Pelacan broke through the adults and moved forward.

“Attack the party of the church. The liver was also large. Originally, I should have buried them all in the ground as a guilt-by-association…”

I leaned against the spear that the priest had driven into the ground.

“Since you are the priest of Ra, shouldn’t you follow the teachings of Ra? As a priest, I will show mercy. But I can’t help but warn you… Watch everything you do from now on.”

One of the village elders opened his mouth. Last night, the man he didn’t take part in.

The voice of a man who was old but not that old was trembling.

“What, what are you talking about…?”

“It is literally. See, hear, see. Block the eyes and ears of children, and adults just have to watch.”

Somewhere is broken, but his life is attached. Pelarcan, who broke through the adults, gasped for his breath.

I just saw it, but it’s still an intense sight. The incomprehensible sentence made me even more dizzy.

As if representing the boy’s opinion, the village elder asked, trembling with fear.

“That, that word…”

“I plan to end my sins from now on.”

“Yes, yes?”

“Did you think it would be safe to touch the priest of the church? We did a favor, but what returned was a sword. It was a group of people led by a man called the village chief. I’m sure most of you knew this.”

“Ha, but…”

“I know. Well, I have no intention of asking for the sin of neglect. But what we suffered is what we suffered. Shouldn’t you be responsible for that too? Even if I avert my eyes, I can’t let it come back now.”

The priest’s voice lowered.

“Last night, if even one person had tipped us off, we wouldn’t have gone this far. But what has already happened is what has already happened. Everyone. Now, open your eyes wide. Just look at the eyes you turned away last night without avoiding it this time. That’s all.”

“What are you going to do with them…?”

“Ra is.”

Recites the doctrine calmly.

“I told them to take care of the poor, but they didn’t even tell me to reap the animals. A beast that bit a human has only one end. Butcher it, cut it up, and dump the meat in the field.”

“Come on, cruel…”

“It is cruel to brutes who did not even know the human beings who gave them grace. Or not…”

The man stretches out his leg. The trampled village chief screams.

“Do you really think they did the right thing?”

“Ah… Ah…”

Women rushed out from among the villagers. Clinging in front of the priest, he begged for her hand.

“Yes, Priest! Priest! My, please…! He-he was just dragged away!”

“Don’t do this! Don’t do this…Well, I’ll do anything…Only for me, my husband…”

“Oops! Not my children! Priest! Please! Please!”

“Mo, please save my life! Please! I-I have a good nature!”

The priest sighed. His cold words melted slightly.

“…What.”

A straw fell in front of those who begged.

“I can’t help it if you beg that much.”

“Are you sure?”

“However, there is no choice but to follow the teachings of Ra. What would be the priest’s position if he violated the doctrine of seeing injustice and not putting up with it?”

“That, that word…”

“Since it is such a mess, even if it is a rough punishment…”

Among those who are half assholes, these are the least of them with clean bodies.

“These four were the ones who planned the job in the first place.”

Four men. The faces of the villagers became angry at the faces of the village chief and the three bandits.

“Me, those f*cking bastards!”

“Oh, Priest! Those bastards will seduce our innocent son!”

“My, my husband just passed over! I, we are not guilty of anything!”

Pelacan swallowed dry saliva at the shouting voices of adults.

Something is strange.

Public opinion changed at once, and the dissatisfaction with the priest passed to those four.

“No one can avoid taking responsibility.”

The priest pushed the back of the village chief who had been raised up. The village chief’s tongue was cut in half as he opened his mouth with a creak.

Words that don’t come out right. Broken cross section.

“If you are afraid of Ra’s wrath, you can stand up for yourself.”

Someone walks out from behind the priest. Female. A long snake-like tongue whispered in her beautiful face.

“Prove your innocence before God. It is to save someone’s husband and son with blood on their own hands. By doing so, you can prove that you are completely innocent. Stand up The sin of turning a blind eye is washed away by getting your hands dirty.”

Pelarcan stared at her blankly at her. The adults who turned around were trembling and muttering.

“Yeah, that’s right…we are not guilty of anything…”

“That guy with the long tongue seduced us…”

“Ra, in front of Ra… Prove that you are innocent… The priest has shown mercy…”

“If we…We have to step in…”

Hands picked up broken weapons. The villagers flocked to the village chief.

The village chief struggled. The priest suddenly pushed his back through the crowd.

“Everything will return to the flame.”

The village chief and the bandits were buried in the shadows.

“According to Ra’s will.”

There were no screams. I couldn’t even get it out because my tongue was cut.

Pelarcan hesitated and pulled back behind her.

Strength and whispers.

Pelarcan ran through her adults and out. He covered his ears to the unpleasant sound and ran out of town as if rolling.

D.

The name of compassion and fear.

The boy was terrified. And he promised

I decided to live as a farmer for the rest of my life. Not to set foot beyond that strange world.

From noble mtl dot com

“The church touched us? What denomination?”

“That’s…”

“I heard that all the guys sent to Folton are dead.”

“My brother is dead! Boss!”

“From what I asked, I heard that he is a great paladin.”

“He said he was a man.”

“Everyone spoke as if possessed.”

“A messenger of God who slaughtered countless demons.”

“Since all of them are making noise, I grabbed a child and asked him.”

“There is only one answer.”

“What do you say?”

The great thief ‘Kalvid’.

The executive whispered.

“They say that only the flame of Ra will purify all evil.”

Silence ate them all.

“…Cult of Ra?”

Kalvid’s boss, Bunny muttered.

“Damn the Sun God Church in my district?”

“Boss. I hear stories that mercenaries look down on our bandits these days.”

“All the guys who tried to rob the top were caught.”

“The name of Calvid is crying.”

Bunny wiped his face. He stroked his scarred right eye.

He spat.

“Did I ask for your name?”

“That’s why…Everyone seems possessed by something, priest…Just with the priest…”

“The word “Scorched ash” Came out.”

“Scorched…What? What is that?”

“We don’t know either. It was the first group I had heard of.”

Well, I don’t even have to know.

After all, there is only one male paladin of the Sun God Church that is incredibly strong.

“…Get your tools.”

Kalvid moved.

“It’s not another church, it’s the Sun God. I must kill them all. On top of that, he’s an incredibly strong male paladin… He’s the only one. I will absolutely cut you in half.”
