Chapter. 11. Wizard’s Wizard (26)

“Puhaaaaa! Cluck, cluck, cluck!”
The feeling of being covered in something wet and sticky. My breath was filled with the smell of blood, and my whole body throbbed as if I had been beaten.
‘The smell of blood? I’m sick?’

lived Did you live? He survived!! Hey, I’m alive! It’s good to be alive!
What about existence and what about ego? After tightening my heart once, I was completely cured. After all, when people are full, useless thoughts flood their heads. You’re done with the bourgeoisie just because you made a little money, Professor Park.
Of course, the place where I lost consciousness and bounced out of the conscious space was in the game, the space where I made a mess with the ghost knight and got into a fight with my party members.
Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
‘Ah, this is what it feels like. It’s been a long time since Roman threw me into the well back in the lab. The air tastes so good.’
While Professor Park, who had overcome both his ego and his physical crisis, was enjoying the joy of his return, the situation around him gradually began to come into view.
‘What is this?’
Uh… first of all, it hurts a little. His whole body aches. It’s probably because he’s been pounding that drum and his insides have become soggy.
No matter how good it may be to have very large nails stuck in your hands and feet, it would be difficult to regard it as part of treatment, right?
‘Furthermore, this subtle divine power… Isn’t this the wooden board that the church uses to interrogate heretics?’
Seeing that there is a pulling sensation at the top of the part where the stake was driven in, it means that gravity is acting towards the foot, and that means that it was not driven in by lying down somewhere, but rather was driven into a very standard wooden board and hung there.
First of all, one situation I found out. I am now experiencing Jesus against my will.
At first glance, the stake with my hands and feet stuck in it seemed like an unusual object as it was inlaid with all kinds of sacred patterns, and to top it off, my body was restrained by an iron chain that could be used to lower a drawbridge.
I would understand if I were in that monster state. First of all, you’ve returned to being human now, right? Just because you’re used to it doesn’t mean it won’t hurt. It hurts so bad. If something like this happens, even Jesus will lose his love for the world. There is no doubt about it.
good. First of all, I understand the level of my treatment. So what happened to my group besides me?
The last scene I remember was of Aldrich’s mug pressing down on my face in a rain full of sunlight. I remember that Otman, Aldrich, Borka, Notum, and even Hydrasil were all there. Why can’t I see it now?
“hey-”
Cheaeng!
Screw it!
“The monster has awakened!”
“My lord! “Bring the lord!”
“A voice that sounds like it’s going up the river of the underworld! “I’d better hit his head right now before it’s too late…!”
hmm. I tried to ask nearby soldiers where they had gone, but it had the opposite effect because my voice was completely hoarse and cracked.
Judging by the atmosphere, I felt like a completely possessed monster. The same goes for the soldiers who immediately thrust their spears but slowly put their butts back. The same goes for knights with fire burning in their eyes.
This reaction is completely understandable when you look at the surrounding scenery, which looks like it was sprayed with red paint from a fire helicopter… but how can I convince you of this?
Many angles. Many angles. Many angles. Many angles.
While the professor’s head, which had just finished booting, began to spin, the soldiers surrounding him parted like the ebb and flow, and the horse ridden by the Margrave approached me.
Ugh!
The horse stood in front of me, hanging and nailed to the ground, and the Margrave’s sword, with its subtle aura, touched me between the eyes.
“You gave me one chance to appeal. I’ll give you one chance too. “Please explain.”
The head of the family clearly looks tired, but her sharp eyes do not waver at all.
This kind of person is a person who will do something if he can do it. The holy relic still hangs around my neck without any problems, and that means I have proven myself as a warrior of Ro Haram.
If you look at the matriarch’s eyes now, the meaning is full of ‘I don’t care about that, just try to convince me quickly.’
‘Let’s see. What should I explain first? You were a hero of the church this morning, and you invaded and declared a heresy? Did he transform into a monster that reached the ceiling of the spacious living room right before his eyes? Mute’s attack happened at an incredible timing after I came to visit?’
Now that I think about it, there are more than one or two things I’ve done, right?
“There are no words. Since you treated us according to the rules of the church, I will treat you according to the rules of the Vigilen family. In Sig Finland, if a criminal closes his mouth, he is considered to have admitted his crime and is executed on the spot.
‘Damn it! At least give me some time to think-!’
“For what? “Do you want to judge me?”
Tsutsutsu!
When I saw the sword blade filled with aura cutting through the chains wrapped around my body without any hesitation, my mouth moved before I thought.
‘Image, the image must be solidified. The story the head of the family told me as soon as he arrived was when I gave him a chance to appeal as an overbearing religious person. In their eyes, I am a grotesque being who was once a warrior of an oppressive religious order, but then turned into a monster and ate monsters. If it turns out that even the religious concept was an act, no matter what I say, they won’t believe anything. You’re acting, Professor Park! ‘I’m wearing a thin glass mask on my face!’
Is it because it’s been a while since I’ve been shaking my brain with Hyde? In a split second, it occurred to me what I should do.
The rough, hoarse, cracked voice became even lower, like a wounded animal.
The blood-filled eyes are red and open, with a look filled with deep meaning.
The blood was soaking the surroundings and flowing in small streams, and the spear blades of the surrounding soldiers were hanging quite high and pointed at me, nailed to the ground.
First of all, it was a perfect environment to set the mood.
If the environment is provided, of course you should use it.
Quickly!
As if I wasn’t paying attention to the matriarch’s sword between my eyes, I leaned forward and pulled the chains that bound me tight. The tip of the aura-covered sword lightly touched my forehead, and drops of blood flowed.
“It’s a sin. Because I am a sinner. If so, I’d like to hear about the crime. The only thing I did as a warrior of the church was to serve Roharam and tear down the heresy. “For what reason is the head of the family persecuting me?”
“I never said you committed a sin. I just said I needed an explanation. As a guardian of the frontier, I have been fighting monsters all my life. In the morning, I beheaded a monster wearing my son’s skin, and now I am facing someone who has returned from a monster the size of a house to a human being. Is it not possible to think that preparing this much to ask about my identity is too much? first of all. “I want to start by asking whether you are a human being or something like that beast.”
“I am a moth chasing the light in the deepest darkness, a sprout blinded by the light and unable to see anything else. Wrong question, matriarch. “Those are not the things that matter to me.”
A cracked, unwavering voice came from the huge man hanging on the wooden board. Anger appeared on the head of the family’s forehead at the meaningless answer.
“…don’t test my patience. What I want to hear is not a Zen question or answer, but clear facts. Are you really saying that you guys had nothing to do with that large-scale airstrike? Even though they attacked the city as soon as you arrived, less than two days later?”
“It is natural that when you light a torch, the rats disperse. “Is it so difficult to understand that the Inquisitors are uncovering heresy and they are struggling?”
Sreung-!
In response to my answer, the lord’s auror dug into his forehead a little more. It also probably means that you didn’t like the answer. This means that if it bothers you any more, I will just hit your head.

“…Cheongsan Flowing Waterway. good night. I can’t believe it, but according to the reports of the people, even though an entire section of the territory was ruined by your hands, no one died, so I guess I can believe it to some extent. good night. I’ll skip the first two questions. Please answer one last question. “That body… was it really created by the church?”
The voice is softer than before. I think I’m trying to hide it, but if you want to play with me, you have to be the president of the dome, the archbishop of light, or an elf who is a 300-year-old hero warrior. It was only in the last question that I could faintly see the real emotion.
‘…You idiot. Even though he’s a martial artist, he knows how to pull off some tricks just because he’s a noble.’
I received reports of my actions through the people of the territory. From those words, I could tell that the lord had already obtained some necessary information about me. Even when he was crazy, he didn’t kill as many people as he did, so of course there’s no need to make such a fuss now that he’s back to his original form. So, this grandiose judge with bad tastes, the flashing spear blade, and the auror digging into the forehead are all devices to create pressure for the final question.
‘A margrave can be considered the king of a small town. ‘You must have this level of political sense.’
Of course, it didn’t work out because the other person was me.
“…I’ll just say that even in the deepest darkness, there was a ray of light.”
To the person who wanted the clearest facts, I answered with the most uncertain. To the uncertain, yet untouchable realm of religion. The answer is appropriately atmospheric so that you can roughly guess the meaning.
‘Actually, I was deliberately using the frame of a religious person because I was afraid this question would come up. ‘Because if you ask me this, I don’t have a good answer.’
In fact, if you say, ‘My body is being corroded by mutes, and I don’t know when it will attack me~’, they will drive a stake into it like a sewing machine and put it in an underground warehouse or something. If you say, as Roderick said, ‘This is a poor experiment born from a wizard’s experiment~’, you might say, ‘Is the magic of the three eastern countries so advanced? ‘To the extent of creating such a magic weapon.’ They will quickly capture them and hand them over to the Imperial Magic Tower or the Academy as test subjects.
I think the answer the Margrave wanted was the second one. He was a ghost knight who had to struggle even against one of the few master-level swordsmen in the empire, and the guy running rampant next to him knocked him to the ground with a force I had never seen before. We can communicate. The power of a powerful monster with no aggression toward humans. For the Margrave, who had lived his entire life facing monsters coming down from the mountains, my power must have been truly coveted.
That’s probably why they held this strange aristocratic trial to somehow expose the source of this power. In fact, the answer was [Ro Haram], which was nothing but invincible ignorance and logic-less evasion. Anyway, it is the grace of Haram. It was something like, “If God did it, then so be it.”
Tsutsutsu side-
In the end, the margrave, who frowned heavily in front of me and didn’t give any other answer than ‘I said it because he was a religious person’, was thinking about it.
Tororok-
Drops of blood flowed from my forehead and ran down the blade of the sword, and a fat man with sweaty hair whispered something into the lord’s ear.
Swoosh, bang!
The lord’s sword, which seemed as if it would cut my head in two at any moment, was sucked into the scabbard.
“A shadow of light. okay. I’ve heard the rumors. There are people who serve God but do unbelievable things. “It looks like Ro Haram’s shadow has a longer tail than I thought.”
“…If the light is bright, the repercussions are also vast.”
“……”
Quickly!
The lord swept his eyes for a moment with an expression full of agony and fatigue, then turned his back on me and spoke to one of the other knights next to him. Once he became convinced that he was a monster created by the church, he probably decided that it was beyond his control.
“Let him be released. “The restraint of the group being monitored separately and the magician’s mana control structure.”
“…I dare to advise you, I hope you will reconsider. According to the testimony, the author was so drunk with blood that he could not tell the difference between a friend and a friend.”
“Don’t make me say it twice, Knight Rodel. No matter the process, in the end, the warrior did not cause any damage to the allies, and stood shoulder to shoulder against the enemy’s attack. “Since when did Vigilen ignore his comrades?”
The knight did not ask any more questions at the head of the family’s frost-like voice.
‘At this level… I think I’ve passed the passing line, right?’
The head of the family confirmed that they were not enemies. Because I have sufficiently appealed to the public that Robak is a fanatic…
“Hmph!”
Kkuddeuk-deuk-teeing!
Lastly, I had to show that I was not detained and made an excuse, but that I was ‘captured’ in order to have a conversation.
When I applied force to my shoulder, the thick chains as big as a child’s wrist could not withstand the force and broke one by one, and the hands and feet stuck in the wooden board were pulled out just like that.
“Uuuuu….”
“Monster, monster….”
Although the soldiers around me were a bit scared. Since he would have been known as a blood-sucking monster in the whole neighborhood anyway, wouldn’t it be better to be known as a strong guy?
Jeez. Jeez. Jeez.
With holes in his hands and feet, I was headed to the bishop in white robes, who was trembling with his hands clasped, watching from above.
“Latura.”
“Oh, oh oh oh… Ratura, Ratura lo haram! “Saint, you who illuminate the darkness at the forefront…!”
The bishop is trembling like an aspen tree. But unlike other residents, his tremors were not due to fear.
I saved him from the temple that was collapsing along with the barrier with my own hands, and the holy relic that was hanging tightly like a shackle around the blood-stained monster’s neck proved that I was qualified to be a tool of Ro Haram, despite its appearance. .
The bishop who saw this knelt down and prayed in the midst of the chaos, without even thinking about wiping the blood flowing from his forehead.
In his eyes, didn’t I seem to be ‘a true member of the church who, despite his evil birth, deeply followed Haram’s will and was recognized for it and chosen as his tool’? This may be the reason why he, who should be answering the endless divine message magic coming from the headquarters of the Light Church, is here instead of at the temple. He would try to persuade the lord somehow, and if that didn’t work, he would have been waiting here to save the city against heresy and see me executed by the lord’s hands with his own eyes and canonize me.
“bishop.”
“My name is Malleus, a lowly instrument of light!”
“Okay. Brother Malleus. A group of heretics have crossed the Blue Line and reached the Empire, and the city has been covered in blood, so it needs to be purified immediately. Contact the church immediately….”
“The acolytes have already connected the ‘Eye of Light’. Priests and paladins have departed from nearby territories, and under the instructions of the headquarters, earth-type wizards have been hired to monitor the underground areas of all territories located in the eastern part of the empire. together….”
The bishop, who was almost in tears, looked around with emotion and said, as if he was very proud of this bloody scene.
“This city does not need purification, saint. “Your blood has purified the city.”
‘What kind of dog is eating grass?’
As I frowned as much as I could, the bishop, unable to control his anger, knelt down in front of me and put his hands together, shedding tears like chicken droppings.
“The measures against that evil spirit’s ‘blood infection’ have already been completed. It has been proven that, except for the territory residents in some areas that You could not reach, no symptoms of infection were found in all the areas where You sprinkled the Precious Blood! This is truly the clearest proof that you are a saint! No evil spirit’s cunning tricks can harm those who are touched by Haram! Isn’t this exactly the same as the case in the battle? Oooh, Roharam…. You will always be the first to reach where it is most needed! Alas, punish me. Please punish this foolish priest who failed to attend the saint because he could not understand his great meaning sooner…!”
“Lord, Bishop. Say it again. “My blood… what?”
“Latura, Latura… Ugh!”
Without even thinking about maintaining a solemn expression, he urgently shook the shoulder of the kneeling bishop, but the spirit of the bishop, who was already immersed in religious joy and praying, was rushing to the faraway place of Roharam.
‘My blood… suppresses Mute’s infectious agent?’
The professor swallowed his saliva as he looked at the city dyed bright red.
Something very important was happening.
