Chapter 404
Rumors spread that there was a second attack by the demon king’s minions and demonists in Lazierne, resulting in a huge number of casualties.
The story of the dead resurrecting to devour the living, and the curse of the demon god who resurrected and devours the living, tinged people with fear.
In the ecliptic, there were no extreme situations such as gathering pagans like Lazierne, but people were terrified just to learn how heinous things they could do if they drew their swords instead of being oppressed.
The story that even the name of the fearsome Death Knights appeared in the city where people live increased people’s fear.
Of course, it wasn’t just the story that spread.
The story spread that two warriors holding sacred relics appeared at the place where the confusion occurred.
A man with an Alsbringer.
A woman with a Tiamata.
At the same time, the story spread that the Apostle of Als and the Apostle of Tuan appeared and slaughtered the revived corpses, demonists, and Death Knights in Lazierne, who fell into despair.
Actually, what Reinhardt and Olivia did was right.
However, it was the Empire’s support troops and Shanapell who decisively sorted out the situation. The Empire exaggerated Reinhardt and Olivia’s achievements more than they actually were.
– If it’s Alsbringer, it’s the warrior’s sword!
-And to Tiamata… … .
-The gods didn’t abandon us!
As fear spreads, so does hope.
If the raids of the remnants of the Pandemonium so far only scattered fear, the two champions who appeared in the Raziern raid instilled hope that was stronger than fear in the public.
A warrior appeared to deal with the demon king. two of them too.
Their direct identities are not known. But rumors spread without knowing.
Some know that the man is a 2nd year Temple Royal class student named Reinhardt, and the woman is a 6th year Temple Royal class student.
The truth known by the few soon becomes the truth known by all.
It was a situation where the hearts of those who were about to sink were held by two champions who suddenly appeared.
That’s why people were more relieved than fearful about rumors from distant countries about the Raziern raid.
The demonic cult attack incident was even accepted as news of hope, not news of disaster. After all, in an unknown place, unknown people died.
The rumor that the devil king’s adversary has appeared will expand to the rumor that the devil king will soon be subdued.
Those who know the reality know that no matter how strong Reinhardt and Olivia are, they cannot be opponents of the Demon King. Of course, even this is not true.
However, whether the hope is fake or real is not important.
If peace persists because of false hope, it is not much different from real hope.
As if preventing people from falling into confusion in the belief that the cult of warriors could not be realized.
Whether or not the opponents of the demon king can actually compete with the demon king, people can endure the present just by believing that they will defeat the demon king.
after a few days like that.
winter palace.
“… … .”
Bertus was contemplating as he sat in his office.
Although the emperor’s approval was given, the Raziern raid was planned by Bertus. Of course, Bertus was aware that there would be situations in which civilians would inevitably die.
However, it was not expected that the subsequent damage would occur.
also in this way.
Being a demon king is inevitably hostile to the imperial family. In a way, it was natural to be angry that the connection with the revolutionary forces was broken and even used.
Demonic cults appear.
Their purpose was to complete the demon king’s unfinished plan.
In the first place, since the Raziern raid was not the work of the Demon King, it is nonsense to say that the plan was completed.
If the demonists were the power of the demon king, they should have known that the Razierne incident was not the devil’s plan.
So, the demonists would not have direct contact with the demon lord.
‘Is it really irrelevant?’
But only one.
The demon king, enraged at what happened last time, may have done this on purpose.
The Raziern raid was disguised as the devil’s work, but the actual damage was not that great. Although very important figures have been killed, a significant number of civilians focus on the numbers.
The number of deaths was not so high, and the Raziern raid was a failure.
So, the demon king was deceived, and he could have been angry because the damage done by his disguise was not so great.
You might have thought that it seemed ridiculous that the demon king’s forces could barely destroy even one small country like that.
So it’s possible that he did this to let you know what happens if you seriously try to raid somewhere. It was rumored that they had pulled out their swords, but the fact that such a simple result came out, in itself, could cause people to ignore the demon king.
Therefore, it is not impossible for the demonists to claim that they are carrying out the orders of the demon king.
It is possible to give instructions to actually appear at the disguised raid location and make Rajien devastated.
To warn Bertus that this kind of thing will happen if we recklessly sell our names.
The Demon King sent Owen de Getmora alive, but took revenge by destroying Lazierne.
If this was the devil’s intention, Bertus would have paid the price.
Then the problem becomes very big.
Bertus estimated that the remnants of the Pandemonium were very few.
Each force is very strong, but never many. I’ve been guessing so
‘But if there are even demons… … .’
The number of Demonic Protestants is by no means comparable to the Five Great Priests.
However, the highest level undead, the Death Knights, and the priests who believed in the five demons were included.
Although it is a small country, there is a powerful demonic high priest who can cast a curse that covers the entire capital city.
Terrorism at the city level.
It is tantamount to proving that the Pandemonium remnants have already been able to wage war. Being able to command demonic powers is like saying that the demon king has acquired an army.
What if the dead resurrected and the curse of biting the living unfolds in the middle of the battlefield? No matter what the actual combat power is, the morale-important nature of all-out war will cause shocked soldiers to faint or flee.
‘It doesn’t matter whether there is an order from the demon king or not.’
It doesn’t matter.

Demonic religion itself is already a very serious security threat to the Empire and must be eliminated.
Bertus did not feel guilty that this was his mistake.
‘It’s rather good. I knew before it was too late that these guys were somewhere in the Empire.’
It is fortunate that we found out that there was an anti-imperialist, anti-semitic force hiding somewhere that could do this, before their forces became even stronger.
In the current situation of the continent, where rumors are spreading that the cult of demonic religion is expanding due to the demon king’s actions, there are people who have fallen in fear and rather believe in the demon god and the demon king and seek salvation from them.
The tumor, which would have grown larger had it been left alone, had revealed itself.
not a crisis
This is an opportunity that will never come again, and we must grab the tails of the Demonic Cults that have revealed their magic and pluck them out and throw them away.
-smart
-Your Highness, this is a request for an interview from Owen de Getmora.
At the knocking sound that followed, Bertus caught his breath.
“Ask me to come in.”
The door opened at Bertus’ simple instructions, and the old man in a bowler hat bowed his head deeply toward Bertus.
“Meet Your Highness the Prince.”
“Sit down for now.”
Owen had quite a few things to come to visit him, but Bertus seemed to know to some extent what kind of business he had brought.
Owen de Getmora, sitting on the sofa, looks at Bertus with a serious expression.
“Your Highness, the tribes of the Demon Realm have conveyed their opinions.”
“It’s an opinion… … ?”
“They said this was not their fault. Of course, I’m not sure if this is true or not, but… … .”
There is no connection between the Demonic Church and the Demon Realm.
That claim may be false, but it is clear that the Pandemonium forces are reluctant to lose their connection with the imperial family because of this incident.
If that statement is true and the demon king has nothing to do with the demon cultists, what position does the current demon king take toward the demon cult?
“If what he said is true, he will try to find the Demonic Church and put it under him.
It’s impossible to be sure, but what you need to do is simple.
Finding and eradicating the demon religion faster than the demon king was the top priority right now.
If it’s even a little late, it will lead to the demon lord swallowing up the Demon God’s forces.

“Tiamatha… … .”
The commander’s office of the commander of the Knights Templar.
The current commander of the Knights Templar, Ileion Boelton, opened his eyes wide at the sight of a sword with a milky white blade in front of him.
It was none other than Olivia Ranze who brought it.
Olivia took the mouse that had shown Tiamata with a calm expression in her hand again.
“It’s welcome that you changed your mind, but to think you were chosen by Tiamata… … .”
“This is enough qualifications to be ordained a priest, right?”
Was the appointment as a priest a problem? Even if Tiamata didn’t exist, Olivia could do more than that.
There, Tiamatara became the owner of a powerful and great symbol. Strictly speaking, there were people who would support him even if he pushed out the current commander of the Knights Templar and took the position.
Ileion Bolton stares at Olivia Ranze with a determined expression.
“May I ask how you changed your mind?”
“… … .”
Not to protect everyone, but to protect one person.
Since Reinhardt saved his life, he only uses it for Reinhardt.
But Olivia, of course, knew that she shouldn’t say such a thing.
“I saw the demonists.”
“… … The rumors that you were in Lazierne seem to be true.”
“I thought I couldn’t just watch humans messing up the world when it wasn’t enough even if humans came together.”
Olivia cites a universal reason.
Olivia, who did not want to be forced to the universal standard, and Olivia, who suffered from being forced to fulfill her duties as a saint, goes round and round and eventually returns to her place.
“Yeah, since I’m still a student, I won’t have much to do. However, as an honorary position, I can give you any title, authority, or mission. Of course, we can also provide manpower support for what you want to do.”
Ileion Bolton looks at Olivia and asks.
“Do you have anything in mind?”
Olivia has a high reputation as a saint.
A champion of Tuan can make a significant impact just by spreading hope in the Temple of the Five Great Gods. Because she was sincere and eager to help people and save someone.
Ileion Boelton believes that just talking about hope to those in distress will give them peace of mind.
As if she had something in mind, Olivia answered the question right away as soon as it came up.
“I want to work as a heretic inquisitor.”
“… … .”
At those words, Ileion Bolton’s expression hardened.
A saintess of Eredian.
I thought I would be engaged in saving, helping, and protecting something.
Upon returning, he volunteers to torture and kill someone and hunt down the infidel.
Since he came back to the church after seeing the terrible things the demonists were doing, it’s not that strange to volunteer for the mission to hunt down heretics.
The commander of the Knights Templar sees Tiamata in Olivia’s right hand.
Generation after generation, Tuan’s champions killed humans, not demons, monsters, or undead.
Hunting demonists is what the champion of Tuan has been doing.
Couldn’t Olivia Ranze escape from that bondage?
The saintess of Eredian, who seemed like she would kill even an ant, decided to become a heathen hunter for some reason.
“good night.”
Ileion Bolton believed that this was Tuan’s will.

Rumors are fast like wildfire. Even the rumors were being spread intentionally by the imperial family, so the speed had to be even faster.
Raziern attack by the demonists.
The Champion of Tuan and the Champion of Ars appeared there.
up to their names.
It spread really quickly. Usually, it wasn’t to this extent, but since the demon king was being mentioned on the continent, the name of the opponent had to spread like wildfire.
The inside of the royal class knew this from the beginning, but the important thing was outside the royal class.
-That person is that… … .
-I’m the champion of Ars… … .
Me and Ellen are taking lessons from Saviolin Tana, but of course we were also taking regular classes.
Because the name Reinhardt was on the attendance list, it was inevitable that he would receive many people’s attention.
Not only did the general class students in the same class have completely different gazes, but both men and women as well as teachers were all staring at them with awe.
It’s not just in class.
“… … .”
“Hey you… … . It’s popular… … .”
Liana muttered blankly as she and I walked down the street.
I didn’t come out to play somewhere, it was just on my way back to the dormitory after the psychic class.
– male voice
Like that, Riana and I were walking together now, and a number of students were following the two of us whispering behind us.
-Looks like you’re dating.
– Even a warrior should have a relationship.
– Could be friends.
-is it?
-No, that person was dating Miss Temple last year too? i spring
-really?
“… … .”
It’s like an idol dragging a fan club, with people following behind them at a distance, so it’s indescribable… … .
Feeling like a dog was holding in real time.
Liana also seemed to be dumbfounded in real time by this amount of attention.
Why are you following me?
why?
It doesn’t matter what follows you!
– Warrior! Please look at this!
What is called the warrior.
When I actually listened to it, I felt like I was going to get goosebumps all over my body.
“Hey, you bastards! Go home and wipe your feet! Why are you following me! uh?!”
Eventually, it exploded.
I’m going to add a line of rumors as a brave warrior with a burst of personality, but this.
Liana went back to the dormitory and declared that she would no longer be able to go out with you.
* * *
It was a horrible feeling when people casually called me the hero. I didn’t think that I would be mentally damaged in this way.
It was very difficult to endure that people’s expectations of me turned into interest and hovered around me. There were even sasaeng fans who followed him around regardless of class.
even.
“Let’s bet Alsbringer and compete.”
Even madmen who came together with unfounded confidence and asked for a match appeared.
“I will test you to see if you are worthy to become the owner of Alsbringer.”
I don’t know if he’s hungry for attention or full of confidence.
“What is this bastard?”
– Pleasant!
“Gagging!”
“If you’re hungry for attention, poop in the Main Street fountain, you crazy bastard. Because you will be able to eat up all the attention you’ve had for the rest of your life.”
-F*ck!
“Keuk!”
Apparently, I didn’t look tough, so there were even people trying to do something about it.
-Kyaaak! so cool!
“… … I want to commit suicide.”
being a warrior
In a slightly different sense, I felt in real time that mentality is an important occupational group.
