Episode 234
Berita’s throat is sore… … . … Of course, I didn’t get cut.
Even so, it wasn’t just a slight scratch.
The blade succeeded in carving fatal marks on the nun’s body from her left collarbone to her right side.
Blood spurted out from the pitch black nun’s clothes.
“That crazy guy… … !”
Chain Scythe was faithful to its mission even though it was swearing. The jar was secured by throwing the chain with unusual control.
“… … !”
Then the eyes of those in the crowd focused on the chain scythe. A few guys who were quick to grasp the situation had already started running toward the chain scythe.
I shouted.
“Jump!”
Chain Scythe, who had just held the jar in her arms, ran towards the entrance from which she had just walked.
At the same time, I braced my knees and entered the battlefield.
Quaaa!
The slightly rough landing caused dust and stone fragments to fly in all directions.
I stood as if blocking the entrance and raised the corners of my mouth.
“Where are you going in such a hurry?”
“… … .”
If the chain scythe returns to the starting point and delivers the jar, our group wins.
In fact, it is not a victory, but you will receive the highest evaluation score anyway.
‘But now that I think about it, why do I have to say this shit?’
I just need to pass this test.
It’s none of my business how Heros evaluates me. This means that you only need to secure B-class hero qualifications.
However, when I came to my senses, I was acting like someone who was risking his life on the evaluation… … .
I clicked my tongue, but I couldn’t bite my tongue once the situation had come to this point.
‘There are six opponents.’
First of all, it would be correct to see them all as C-level heroes. There is no particular merit in promotion battles for B-class heroes or higher.
Except for special cases like Erudi.
Of course, this does not mean we can let down our guard.
These guys were a pretty good team, and they knew how to take advantage of multiple things.
This means that unlike the low-intelligence bats we just encountered, it is difficult to respond with the Seven Deadly Swords alone.
Instead of being overconfident, I decided to face it with all my might.
The presence of veins extending throughout the body, centered around the heart, was clearly felt.
Run through this passage.
Good luck!
The flames that rose from the Danjeon spread throughout the entire body in an instant.
As a result of coming to Tefer and resting my mind and body for a few days, my internal skills have improved significantly compared to before.
‘If I just refine this a little more… … .’
I might be able to decide for myself when to enter the whitening state.
The dwarf standing in front swung his ax sharply at me.
The momentum of the ax blade was strong, but it was a surprisingly powerful attack. Even if it inflicted fatal injuries, did they apply just enough force to not kill them?
Of course, because this proportion of power was abstract, it had to be guessed based on the opponent’s mood or facial expression rather than the force contained in the actual weapon.
‘First of all, there is no way all six of us will survive.’
Could it be that Verita was able to survive because they also did not use weeds?
Rather than that, Verita seemed to be conserving his strength for some reason.
Since the other person wasn’t sincere, I also went on the defensive and took a peek at Verita’s side.
Although she suffered injuries that would have been surprising if she fell down immediately, Verita was standing unharmed, and no pain could be seen even on her expression.
Rather, with his characteristic faint smile on his face, he said this to the knight wielding the blade.
“Have you calmed down?”
“what?”
“I apologize for what happened during the first exam. “But I didn’t have much time left, so it was the best I could do at the time.”
“Best? “Do you know what happened to my teacher because of your crazy behavior?”
“By the gift, do you mean Erudi?”
“Yes! There will be no peace for the rest of His life! “You will be chased for your whole life and will eventually meet a miserable end, torn to pieces by your pursuers!”
“Well… I’m sorry. Certainly, the Dark Church will never forgive apostates. So how about this? “It’s about protecting your gifts at our school.”
“… what?”
The knight stopped at the unexpected words.
“I know very well what kind of person Erudi is. I heard his confession during the first exam. You seem to sincerely regret the past and focus on the present. He has also proven that attitude to be true during his time at Heros over the past several decades. It was such a great edification that I wanted to use it as a textbook! “I also don’t want someone like that to die at the hands of the cult.”
Berita smiled gently and placed her hand on her heart.
Blood seeped into my pure white fingers.
“Since Erudi’s inclinations are moderate, he could walk the path of a monk like me. “I am a poor person, but I have enough influence to recommend an old man who regrets his past to the church.”
“… … .”
The knight looked at Verita with tired eyes.
Even though he was bleeding profusely, his complexion was fine, his breathing was calm, and his eyes were sparkling like stars.
Perhaps the knight is feeling some kind of fear right now? To that mysterious nun.
“hmm. I guess you can’t easily believe me? I understand. Our first meeting wasn’t that pleasant. What I did to you has not gone away. “If this doesn’t heal your broken heart.”
When I heard a loud sound.
I couldn’t believe my ears. Verita was standing with her back to me, so I couldn’t see her movements clearly.

Judging from the angle and posture of the hand and the sound… … .
It seemed clear that Berita was sticking her fingers into her own eyes.
“… uh?”
“Wait. Well, this isn’t really being chosen. Um, ah, oh, that’s it.”
With a loud thud, Verita pulled out her own eye. And she held it out to the driver and said,
“As a result, I seriously injured my left shoulder and also felt the pain of having one of my eyes gouged out!! ‘… Know the other person’s pain. That would be the first step to understanding.’ It is a pity that the words of the great God can only be carried out in such a simple way.”
“What on earth… … ?”
“Of course, pain is relative, and I am not particularly impressed by these physical scars… “I hope you understand my feelings.”
“You, you… how… … .”
“This is Sister Razvet. ah. Rather… … .”
Berita, who was dripping blood, turned around and looked at the place where the chain scythe had disappeared.
“Wow, the situation has become difficult… … .”
“It’s just as you said.”
The wizard, who had kept his mouth shut the whole time, spoke for the first time.
“So you said it from the beginning, right? “They don’t understand what I’m saying, so it’s right to force them into submission.”
“hmm… I can’t help it. Koraris and the Baron. “Can you please chase down the person who took the jar?”
“ha. “I can’t help it.”
“Sure.”
The wizard and the baron nodded.
These two were also looking at Verita with bored eyes, probably having witnessed such antics several times on their way here.
‘Should we stop them?’
I was a little worried, but some time had passed since the chain scythe departed.
From now on, I won’t be slow enough to catch up with my pursuers, so I decided to leave it alone.
In fact, the current situation where we were fighting six to one did not allow us to afford it.
And Verita, who was left alone, clapped and shouted.
“ruler! The rest of you, please gather here for a moment! I have a disclaimer! “This is not the time to fight amongst ourselves!”
“… … .”
Of course, if those words had stopped the fight, the first sight I encountered in this space would not have been a fight.
Berita, who was standing as if embarrassed, muttered.
“This is it. there’s nothing we can do.”
That’s the moment.
My senses rang the alarm once again. It was a similar feeling to the last time Verita launched an unexpected attack.
Suuuuu… … .
Immediately after the scent of peach wafted from somewhere, Verita disappeared from sight.
However, I didn’t miss it this time.
Although she disappeared from sight, Verita’s presence remained in my senses. It was absurd, but Verita didn’t use any special tricks or strategies.
It was just fast.
It glides across the ground and fights its way through the heroes.
Puff puff puff!
The five heroes couldn’t react.
These guys didn’t even realize what was happening until the moment they allowed themselves to hit a vital spot.
The moment I fell to the floor was the same.
And the dwarf warrior who was pressing me at the very front.
Actually, this guy’s level was quite high.
If you’re only looking at ability, wouldn’t it be a B-level pull-up?
Puff!
So it seemed like this sum of numbers was exchanged.
I didn’t realize Verita’s movements, but the moment my fellow heroes fell, I immediately protected the vital area and held on… … .
He then reflexively swung the ax and attacked.
In other words, that was the limit.
Paang!
Immediately after that, Verita’s palm struck the dwarf’s forehead.
“Ugh… … .”
And the dwarf’s eyes turned white and he fell down.
“… hmm.”
Would that be at least A level by Heros standards? If you only look at his physical abilities, he may be more than that.
I took a moment to gauge my chances of victory when I fought Verita.
I will be honest.
As of now, it’s pretty slim.
“If you can subdue it so easily, why didn’t you do it sooner?”
When I asked, Verita answered.
“Behemoth’s feather.”
“what?”
“This is the name of the jar that your colleague just took!”
“… “If it’s Behemoth.”
Of course, I’m talking about the Great Devil.
The wave of the apocalypse, the protagonist of the apocalypse, the absolute god of the dark church.
“This place is a seal, and that jar is a seal! Of course, if you leave the designated area, the seal on the jar will be released, and the demon trapped inside will be released. Behemoth’s Feather is one of the dark cult’s relics.”
“Wait a moment. That means… … .”
“yes. We had to work together to defeat that demon from the beginning! “If anyone is blinded by the effort and tries to secure the jar alone, he or she will be killed in an instant by the unleashed devil.”
“Why are you saying that now?”
Then Berita said somewhat aggrievedly.
“I kept saying! “No one believed it!”
“… … .”
It has to be that way.
This girl had the appearance of a faithful nun at first, but now she was giving off a somewhat dangerous aura.
It feels like I don’t want to get involved easily.
For some reason, I feel like the reason is because of contact with me, so I am in a very uncomfortable situation.
Anyway, if things continue like this, Rokhan is in danger.
“It’s not time for us to fight among ourselves. Then, let’s go-”
“Ah, ah. “Wait, wait, wait!”
Verita urgently called me.
And he kept tilting his head and examining my behavior.
“Excuse me, brother. “How did you get that wound?”
“wound? ah.”
I answered, touching the slightly stinging wound on my cheek.
“I had some trouble with that driver earlier. It’s just a little scratch, so it’s okay. “More than that.”
I looked at Verita as if I was rather dumbfounded.
“My wounds aren’t the problem, are you? It seems to be moving normally, but is it okay? Also, why did you take out her well-placed eyeballs? “Is it possible to treat that?”
“… “It’s my fault.”
The knight standing behind spoke in a lowered tone.
“I literally lost my reason. Sister, I am truly sorry. “I will accept this sin after the test is over.”
At those words, Verita turned her back.
It was just this moment.
“… … ?”
For some reason, goosebumps appeared on my forearms.
The air inside the cave was somehow cool and touched the back of my neck.
“… wealth.”
No big deal.
A cracked voice came out from Verita as she walked towards the knight.
“Boo, boo, boo, boo-.”
Am I reciting a spell or something?
“Nun?”
The driver called out in a suspicious manner… … .
“this.”
What happened the next moment was probably something no one present could have predicted.
“You blasphemous bastard!”
Verita’s eyes rolled back and she smashed the knight’s head with a blunt object.
Kwasik!
“… … .”
I looked at it blankly.
The knight’s face resembled a crushed can, with bulging eyeballs oozing out like mucus.
It didn’t feel real.
“… no.”
The moment I muttered without thinking, veins appeared on the back of Verita’s hand, which was holding the blunt weapon.
“Dare, dare, dare, dare, dare, dare! 썩을 놈의 개새끼가! Garbage no worse than food waste, no worse than sewage that cannot be recycled! “How dare you harm someone’s existence!”
Kwasik! Kwasik!
Although I didn’t really want to, I got to watch a person’s head being smashed into his shoulder in real time from a special seat.
“I don’t know the topic, I don’t even dare to know the topic… … ! With those disgusting, dirty, disgusting, grime-covered fingers! How dare you touch the very being of a holy priest! die! die! Damn it! die! “It’s a joke!”
Verita swung the blunt weapon.
It looked like a child who had lost his temper was swinging the bat at random.
It’s random, but that thought occurred to me.
Even if what was in that hand was not a blunt weapon, but a thick scripture… … .
Wouldn’t Verita have smashed the knight’s head with that?
“Die and atone! Atone with death! Atone even when you die! Regret today’s events until your bastard’s soul is worn away and not even its original form remains! “You disgusting heretic who can’t even be used as pig feed!”
Kwasik… … .
Verita, who was frantically striking the blunt object, soon stopped moving. It was at this point that the knight’s head sank to his waist.
“Haha, haha… … .”
Berita gasped.
It wasn’t like I had wasted my strength because of the chaos I had just experienced.
When a person truly loses their senses and enters a state of excitement, they become out of breath even without any particularly strenuous exercise.
“… … .”
Only then did I realize that my mouth was half open.
Even though I realized it, no words came out of my open mouth.
I was almost embarrassed myself.
I had the confidence to flutter my muzzle in any situation, but now that confidence has been shattered.
Meanwhile, Berita, who was out of breath, finally calmed down and wiped the blood that had spattered on her face.
North North.
North North.
North North.
Again and again.
Wipe it several times.
Verita’s disordered breathing became calm. When she looked at me again, her face was smeared with dried blood.
And this woman smiled shyly with a scared face, afraid she would appear in a dream.
“… “I was very rude.”
“… … .”
“But, priest. “I have destroyed the thing that dared to harm the priest’s being.”
Looking at that smile, I was reminded of the scholar’s mutterings right after the first exam.
Did you say she was crazy?
It’s an accurate assessment.
This woman is truly crazy.
