Episode 232. Beliefs and Questions (2)
‘This is the power of people?!’
Schurz, who experienced the power of the Holy Sword for the first time, was completely dumbfounded.
Is this really the power of God’s weapon?
It was truly incomparably stronger than the opponents he had fought so far.
Of course, that strength did not come from the holy sword alone.
In the first place, the knights that Schurz is currently dealing with are high-ranking knights who are considered to be among the best in the empire.
It was close to impossible from the beginning for a young prosecutor who had previously been a mercenary to deal with them.
Even if the attack itself is somehow prevented,
-Whoop!
There was no room for a counterattack at all.
If I hadn’t just used my reflexes to bend down, my neck would have been cut in two.
If you don’t hold on tight, you will find yourself at the door of the underworld at some point.
I hurriedly widened the distance to get my bearings again, but
“Don’t miss it!”
The Knight of the Holy Sword followed right away, as if not even giving him a chance.
-visor!
Brian stepped in to prevent this.
Brian fiercely attacked the knight with his swordsmanship, which was as fast as that of a senior knight.
At this, the knight stepped aside for a moment to take a breather.
“Are you okay?”
“Oh, it still is!”
“Please hold on just a little longer! “Young master will sort out the situation soon!”
“I’ll try… … .”
Schurz honestly wasn’t confident.
But you can’t just sit down on the ground and say you can’t do it.
Schurz cried and raised his sword again as if he were eating mustard.
Brian also said the same thing, but he didn’t know that the situation was more serious than he thought.
The knights of the holy sword who tirelessly push forward,
The Mist members were unable to handle the momentum and were being pushed back, and the siege against them was gradually narrowing.
At first glance, I thought I should ask for support from Sian, but
Brian immediately gave up his thoughts.
He is clearly a knight of Xi’an.
It was not right to ask for support when the lord’s support was not enough, as was the stated duty.
The best thing we can do now is to fight as hard as we can to keep Xian from turning his attention to this side.
The moment I once again strengthened my heart toward my lord and grabbed my sword,
“… … ?”
Suddenly, a group of knights came out in front of Brian.
First of all, if you look at the armed forces, they are the imperial army, but there are also some mercenary-like people whose affiliation is unclear.
For a moment, I wondered something about the sudden appearance.
They soon began a battle with the knights facing them.
“Cover the assassins!”
It looked like reinforcements had come to support the assassins.
Jereon soon came to the side of Brian and Schurz, who were rolling their eyes because they did not understand the situation.
“Looking at your behavior, it seems like you are not related to those dark friends.”
“Uh, why are you helping us?”
“Isn’t that a good reason? For now, just think of us as reinforcements who have come to help you.”
Jereon shrugged his shoulders as if it was no big deal.
“All those who oppose the new order will be eradicated!”
On the other hand, the Knights of the Holy Sword showed no concern at all even though their colleagues from the same organization were facing each other as enemies.
On the contrary, they swung their swords saying that they too would be considered evil, so those who faced them could not help but have more doubts.
“Why on earth are you doing this?”
“We are knights who protect the empire and the continent according to the orders of His Majesty the Emperor. Why are you guys following His Majesty’s orders… … !”
“His Majesty the Emperor has fallen!”
Soon, an urgent message alerting people to the chaotic situation rang out.
At this, the eyes of the knights all turned to one place.
The appearance of the emperor, who had given orders in a dignified and dignified manner, had already disappeared.
The only thing that exists is a sickly person who cannot even open his eyes and is held in a limp state in the arms of Princess Arin.
“Please take Abama Ma! Come on!”
Arin supported the emperor and asked for help.
The emperor soon left the scene under the protection of other knights and servants.
People were taken aback by what happened so quickly.
However, the knights of the Holy Sword did not even waver at all.
Their goal is to punish reactionaries who oppose the new order.
“How can you not have questions when you see that?”
Jereon shook his head and then resumed the battle with the knights.

In that short period of time, the situation changed drastically in many ways.

However, this trend was never aggressive for the owner of this holy sword.
I smiled involuntarily at his noticeably darker complexion.
“Your complexion has darkened considerably.”
“… … !”
“It looks like something isn’t going your way, right?”
He frowned slightly, but then answered with an awkward smile.
“This is truly a difficult matter. Obviously, the future that Boris and I saw was not like this, but things that we couldn’t see are continuing to unfold… … .”
Support from the imperial army and mercenaries of unknown affiliation, the emperor’s departure, etc.
This was definitely not planned for you.
“But it doesn’t matter. No matter how it goes, the end is fixed. In the end, everything will go back to normal. “Then the one who will have the last laugh will be me!”
A definite end.
An unchanging future.
He appeared to boast that he would be the one to smile in the end anyway.
“under… … .”
A sigh naturally came out of my mouth.
How can it be so consistent?
Now I feel so bad that I even feel pity.
“How do you think the given future will continue as it is?”
“Because it is a future that has no choice but to continue.”
“It is said that the flapping of a butterfly’s small wings can cause storms in the distant sea. “Do you really not know that one small change can change your future?”
“Well, the future of the Bible is not something that can be changed by such a small change.”
He stuttered without realizing it while answering.
I shook my head in pity and continued.
“Well, you’ve always been like that. Rather than solving a given challenge on his own, he always relied on others or outside sources.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Do not deny it. Have you ever overcome an obstacle with your own strength? He always got there with the help and support of others, not just himself. “He accomplished nothing alone.”
Eshel could not deny it.
“So this time, rely on yourself instead of others. You still don’t know, do you? I wonder if such a change in my brother can change the given future… … .”
However, I know very well that it is absolutely impossible.
It is human nature to remain unchanged even at the very last moment when the shadow of death approaches us.
I had no expectation that his nature would change in that short period of time.
Eshel couldn’t say anything back, so she just twitched her lips.
-Geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesss
At that moment, a brighter golden light than before arose from the blade of the holy sword that was in contact with Kayram.
“… … ?”
Eshel and I were embarrassed at the same time, and we stared at the light in silence for a moment.
“okay! “It’s like this!”
Eshel reacted first.
“It doesn’t matter how the middle goes! In the end, the future at the end does not change!”
He struck down Kairam and simultaneously raised the holy sword high into the sky.
-Woe!
The brilliance of the holy sword soared into the air once again.
The swords of the knights that received that light also glowed brighter.
“Whoa whoa!”
The knights, who felt their strength increasing, let out a loud roar.
The assassins, pushed by the momentum, hesitated without even realizing it, and the knights pushed the assassins with even greater force.
-visor!
He also swung his sword at me as if showing off.
“… … !”
The moment I struck back with my sword, my brow furrowed.
The power is noticeably different from before.
I don’t know which serpent sent the power from an unseen place, but the power of the holy sword was even more powerful than before.
“Do you see it, Xian? This is the power of faith! “I don’t have the strength to overcome trivial questions!”
This is absurd.
How can someone who doesn’t even give the slightest trust to others talk about faith?
Even if you don’t believe it yourself, you won’t know if others say it’s okay because they believe it.
However, even the strength I gained in that way just feels different to me.
but,
“Ugh!”
“Be careful Schurz!”
Others seemed not to.
The crew lacked the strength to stop the knights of the Holy Sword who were pushing forward at great speed.
At best, they are just busy maintaining their position.
It would be too much to do anything more.
So I quickly turned around to help them for a moment, but
“Where are you going, Sian?”
-visor!
The owner of the returned holy sword blocked me.
“It’s not them you have to protect. “It’s you!”
Because I felt uncomfortable, I unconsciously narrowed my eyes.
“In order to protect myself, I must do whatever it takes to protect myself! Even if it means relying on others! “That’s what it means to build a life for me!”
It’s truly disgusting.
It’s ridiculous to even discuss it now.
You are the one who thoroughly uses others for your own success, but then mercilessly abandons them.
Even though I am also doing this to build a life for myself,
I’m different from you.
At the moment when I was unable to suppress the rising emotions, an uncontrollable force surged within me.
‘Can you hear me, Sian?’
A familiar voice rang in my head.
This is definitely Hastia’s voice.
I suddenly responded with the same telepathy.
‘What’s happening all of a sudden?’
‘This must be an urgent situation, and I’m really sorry! However, I have something to tell you!’
Urgent situation?
What, where are you watching me right now?
Isn’t he in my subspace right now?
Well, since Brian is here right now, there’s no reason why she shouldn’t be somewhere else… … .
‘Lunab will support you soon!’
what? who?
I didn’t hear it wrong, right?
‘What does that mean? Are you really with Lunav right now?’
‘yes! But right now, I’m not in a situation where I can convey Lunav’s voice… … !’
It looks like this irresistible junior has done something again somewhere.
I’m sure I told you not to even go to the imperial castle.
For some reason, I thought he was listening obediently, but then he came back again… … .
-sssss
Suddenly, fog rose from the keiram I was holding in my hand.
This is not a fog that appears in response to my will.
“What are you doing, Kayram?”
[I didn’t do it.]
Kayram responded bluntly, saying he didn’t do anything.
I wondered if that bastard god was doing some trick somewhere, but if that was the case, I had to at least feel some energy.
However, currently, there was no feeling of Aer’s energy or even a similar energy at all around him.
Rather, it was a new energy that I had never encountered before… … !
-visor! visor! visor!
The cheerful sound of sword dance carried by the wind to my ears.
I naturally looked away.
The assassins, who had only focused on defense rather than counterattacking just a few seconds ago, suddenly regained their momentum and began to overwhelm the knights of the Holy Sword.
It wasn’t just the crew.
“Ha!”
Brian and the unknown man suddenly began to gain strength and drove the knights away with their own strength.
Instead of the power of the fog, their swords were surging with magic power that was almost at its peak.
[Does our owner have many blessings?]
“what?”
[You even get help from that idiot?]
“What are you talking about? “Say it so I can understand!”
Out of impatience, I urged Kayram.
[Maseo Remi Haram.]
“… … ?”
[That guy is around here.]
The accident stopped for about a second because I couldn’t understand the situation.
What’s around here?
