No. 8 Aitula requested excellence.
Simone suggested what it would be like to do it right now, but she looked around anxiously and then spoke in an urgent tone.
– There are a lot of ears listening here. I’ll knock on the priest’s door at the lodging this morning. Are you okay?
-Sister Aitula! what are you doing there
In the distance, her companions were waving. It was dark, so I couldn’t see who was who. She said, ‘I’ll be there soon!’ she replied, bowing to Simon and quickly disappearing.
What kind of trouble did he have that made his face look blue like that?
I was curious, but I couldn’t follow and find out, and I thought I’d have to wait at the dorm.
‘The home port system is over, and there is still time.’
I had an appointment with Aitula for a performance of excellence, and because it was a festival, I felt like I had to give up going to the library because it was going to be noisy all night.
With plenty of time left, Simon decided to enjoy a light walk along the canal.
***
“and.”
Each village in Sky Island had different types of festivals. There were people who wore flowers in their hair and drank wine, while others held group worship while burning old clothes.
Among them, there was one village that stood out.
‘mask?’
People wearing masks with rather unique appearances were dancing around the fireplace. Simon, feeling curious, is snooping around and looking around, and it turns out that this is the village Simon visited last time.
“Laus! Thank you for helping our village this time!”
A villager recognized Simon and took off his mask to greet him. Simon also welcomed ‘Laus!’ and said hello.
“Is dancing a part of the ritual?”
“Yes, it is a tradition passed down in large numbers in our village. I made a mask based on the face of a great missionary from this village.”
The villagers smiled.
“Oh, did you come to pick up your friend?”
“yes?”
“There is a teacher in our village… … I thought you were looking for me.”
Simon’s eyes suddenly sharpened.
‘A selection student came to a place like this?’
There was no reason to stay in a town like this unless you happened to stop by while taking a walk like Simon. Sensing a suspicious smell, Simon said thank you for letting him know, and then walked to the direction the villager pointed out.
‘What are you doing in a dark place like this? Maybe you can get a hint… … .’
Simon’s expression, which had thought so, cooled down in an instant.
– Ho-ho-ho!
– Knock!
A handsome black-grey haired boy was sitting on a chair with his legs spread wide, and on either side of him sat women wearing masks slanted over their heads.
Again, it was 2 sway.
‘I wanted to do something in a dark place, but as expected.’
I didn’t really want to run into that guy. Simon turns his back and tries to walk away.
“Ten times!”
Sway waved vigorously. Simon stopped, sighed, then looked back at him and smiled.
“Rousse, Sway. You look busy, so I’ll go first.”
However, Sway dared to ask for the women’s understanding and strode forward himself.
“Hey, are you here to have fun too? How else do you know that the girls in this town are the prettiest? After all, you are the same as me.”
‘Absolutely not.’
Simon wanted to chime in, but he struggled to suppress his emotions and smiled.
“Don’t you remember what Lirinet said? Dating with the opposite s*x is prohibited for the Epenel selection students.”
“It’s not a relationship of the opposite s*x.”
Sway cleared his ears.
“Fellowship is about being on an equal footing, isn’t it? They’re like slaves to my love… … .”
“Shut up, please!”
Simon, his face flushed with heat, exclaimed in horror. Who didn’t hear? He sighed deeply as he looked around him.
There’s nothing a guy who hasn’t even been in the first grade can say.
Seeing Simon’s reaction, Sway laughed loudly.
“Bastard, it’s absurd to pretend to be innocent on the outside. On the other hand, it’s the subject of the 9 times.”
“Never.”
“I heard number 9 fell in love with you.”
He lightly touched Simon’s arm with his elbow and smiled. A strong smell of alcohol came from his mouth.
Just by looking at it, it seems that he drank wine and got very drunk.
Simon, who wanted to quickly end this conversation that was not suited to his constitution, lightly put his hands together and bowed his head.
“Raus, on this sky island overlooked by your great mother, a big disaster may befall your school life because of your brother’s desire, so please be considerate.”
“Ayyyyy.”
This time, the reaction of disgust came from Sway.
“The chicken meat is all sprouting. Pretending to be a believer is filthy unsuitable.”
‘hmm.’
Simon raised his head.
Certainly, if Simon pretended to be a believer, not only the same selection students but also the Heretic Questioner would be easily fooled, but this guy was something different.
“And number 10, it’s funny how you talk about school life.”
Sway grinned.
“You know number three, right?”
“Maricello?”
“Yeah, before the festival, she was cutting a hole in your boat.”

Upon hearing this, Simon’s eyes widened.
“Please explain in detail.”
“Uh, what. What happened? After drilling a hole, he closed it with his holy magic and covered it with wood. They’re probably trying to get the ship to sink just at the planned time. Did you know that monsters live in the big lake in the middle of the waterway? If the boat had sunk by the time it passed the lake, you were in danger.”
said Simon, locked in thought with his arms crossed.
“By the way, my boat. Were you fine until the end?”
“That’s because I sneakily switched to another boat in the middle.”
Did you do that?
is that guy?
Sway giggled as Simon looked dumbfounded.
“I like you, number 10. The people on this f*cking island, their classmates, their seniors, and even the bishops, are all fanatics who are obsessed with the goddess. But you maintain your own ego.”
“… … Ego?”
“It is said that you move according to your heart’s contention. like me. Faith is a dog.”
Sway, who had muttered to himself like that, slowly crouched down in place.
woo woo woo-
Then he let out a long breath.
The guy who seemed like he was about to live without any worries in this world, at this moment, was making a complicated expression.
“Ah-faith. trust. trust. His faith!”
“You’re very drunk, Sway.”
“It’s a bitch to be drunk.”
He shook his head.
“Hey, number 10.”
“why.”
“Do you believe in God?”
It seemed that he was properly drunk. Did you just ask Priest if he believes in God?
When Simon is about to take Sway drunk.
“I know that?”
That moment.
Sway’s mood has changed.
Simon, who suddenly had chills running down his spine, was on guard, but Sway squatted and raised his index finger slowly.
Hwareuk.
Then, on his index finger, he ignited the divinity in the form of a flame.
“Goddess don’t exist.”
That moment.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
The flame at the tip of the index finger expanded enormously and burned with terrifying momentum.
Bright and dazzling, as if to prove the remark he just made.
Simon took a step back, feeling goosebumps running through his body.
“You, how… … .”
“There is no goddess. This is my belief.”
Sway laughed out loud.
“You know our kkondae, right?”
The head of the interrogation office, Leight. There is no one on this continent who does not know its name.
Sway shook his head.
“That kid is really crazy. If you feel bad, grab someone on the road and hang them on a cross. Hang it if it annoys you, hang it if it’s unpleasant, and it doesn’t matter if you’re guilty or not, whether you’re a heretic or not. If the baby holds torture tools and pulls out her nail claws, everyone shed tears and said, ‘Yeah, I’m heresy!’ and confess.”
Sway spread his arms out.
“I say it every time! ‘purple. I was right!’ You really are a crazy bastard! A lunatic suspicious seed bastard! However, there was a separate time when the human’s suspicious disease reached its final stage. Do you know when that time will be?”
big.
Hehehe.
ぅ.
Sway let out a laugh from his throat and tore his mouth open.
“When he hanged his wife with his own hands.”
“!”
“Even though I was young, I still have clear memories. Her mother begged the old man hanging on her cross. ‘Honey, save me, it’s me’. But I guess the damn old man didn’t hear that voice. 그 개새끼가 한번 의심하면 되돌릴 수 없거든. In the end, my mother died of blood loss right in front of my eyes. The high-ranking people heard her words and instead of punishing her, they praised her. He was a human being who could become heartless in order to carry out the will of the goddess no matter how much he was in his family. She is the true apostle of the goddess.”
Hehe.
Heh heh heh
He swayed and laughed like a broken doll, then stretched out his arms.
“Isn’t that strange? If, as they say, the goddess exists, and the goddess judges sinners for their mistakes. why!”
he cried out.
“Why in the world are our kkondaes still alive and well!”
Kururrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Divinity welled up from his body.
“Even the possessor of infinite divinity? is that lunatic? The suspicious man who killed his wife? So I came to a conclusion. There are no goddesses in this world.”
He groaned and stood up.
“And until I kill that old man with my own hands, I won’t stop.”
“… … Sway.”
He looked back and screamed angrily. He poured out terrible, obscene curses against the goddess.
However, paradoxically, the divinity that bloomed from his body grew bigger and bigger.
like the bright sun.
“Okay, number 10.”
He looked back at Simon with glistening eyes.
“This is me.”
***
The story with Sway is over.
After talking with him and about to part ways, the women who saw the vast divinity rising from Sway came running with thrilled expressions and said, ‘I’ve never seen such great faith in my life! The Goddess must care about Sway!’ she said.
Sway pursed his lips with a philosophical expression and said, ‘Yeah, f*ck. I care for you like a dog,’ he replied, wrapping the women around their waists and taking them away.
Simon felt his head pounding at the extreme contradiction.
‘There are priests like that in the world.’
The possibility that Sway was the murderer was always in mind. In particular, if you look at those crazy actions, you won’t even blink an eye to the extent of killing at least one person.
But is he really a murderer and does he intend to kill the saintess?
Most of the murders of saints happen because of ‘power’, and it is highly likely that the murderer who killed Euclid also colluded with people of higher rank. However, Sway is a person who hates the system of the Holy Federation and blind faith.
It feels a little far from the allegations. She thought it best to focus on investigating other glandular outbreaks rather than on Sway.
Of course, as long as humans are human, we can’t be careless.
‘Rather than that, Maricello No. 3 said he drilled a hole in my boat.’
When passing through a waterway and passing a lake in the middle, monsters also live in that lake. It crossed the line to be intended as a trick.
I thought I should dig this up properly.
‘Let’s go home early today. Because No. 8 Aitula asked me for an Excellence Sacrament.’
Thinking about it again, there was not much contact with Aitula. She doesn’t look like a murderer, and to say she’s a saint, she doesn’t do much compared to other conspicuous linemen.
Then, she suddenly requested an excellent speech. It wouldn’t be simply for the purpose of fulfilling Lirinet’s quota of one excellent sacrament per day.
‘perhaps.’
Simon crossed his arms.
‘Did Aitul also see something like Sway?’
***
“… … … … .”
Eventually, Eighth Aitula came home early and lay down on the bed.
My head was pounding and I felt unpleasant because I had drunk wine during the festival. Of course, it occurred to me that this feeling was not just because of the alcohol.
swish
Her pupils moved busily, examining the interior of the room. She then pulled the blanket over her shoulders even further to cover her nose and mouth.
‘I’m anxious.’
She closed her eyes slowly and took a deep breath.
Anxiety.
– Are you really going to tell me?
A chill of unknown reason took over his body. My heart pounded and I broke out in a cold sweat.
Dreuk. Dreuk.
She was barely asleep when she opened her eyes.
Dreuk. Dreuk. Dreuk.
A strange sound I had heard before.
At first, it was just a little bit intermittent, but now it’s quite long and it bothers me.
‘I can’t sleep because of that sound.’
She turned to her side.
I still couldn’t sleep. I had no choice but to scribble down on my empty notebook what I would say if I met Euclid.
Drooling, drooling, drooling, drooling.
‘eww! What the hell! who is this?’
She jumped up.
I was still concerned.
‘No, it’s better. Priest Euclid must have arrived by now, right? let’s talk. I’m talking about everything.’
In order to find out the identity of the sound, she breathed in slowly.
Grab the doorknob right away.
He opened the door very quietly and cautiously.
profit.
The sound of the door opening is so low that it is almost silent. Soon I peek through the crack in the door.
Deuk deuk deuk dedeuk dedeuk dedeuk dedeuk dedeuk.
there was a monster
By the door on the other side, a naked woman turned around and scratched the wall.
On the skinny back, the limbs were covered with skin like a mummy, and the bones were exposed. His skin was wriggling like red muscle.
‘Ahhh. Ah ah ah ah ah.’
If you’re too surprised, you won’t even say a word.
Such was the state of Aitula now.
It was the most terrifying and grotesque thing she had ever seen in her life.
The moment Aitula was about to close the door, shedding tears.
Shuk.
The woman who had been scratching the wall stopped her arm and looked back.
“!!!!”
Terrified Aitula hurriedly closed the door.
thud!!
I hear the woman banging on the door.
Aitula was so startled that he let out a choking scream! omg! screamed and locked the door. thud! thud! thud! The sound continues to resonate.
“Ah, ah! What is that! What! What is what what is what!”
Then the sound at the door stopped.
it got quiet
Aitula, who had stepped back, stopped moving and trembled, then suddenly realized something.
window.
It was too hot, so I left it open.
had to close
The moment she creaked and turned her head.
Whoaaaaagh!
The woman’s withered arm leaped through the open window, grabbed Aitula’s body, and disappeared.
