Chapter 17 (2/2)
I was so preoccupied with searching for every zo all the funerals that I ended up gradually forgetting about the passage of time
It was only yesterday that we finally finished settling everything After our relative safety was assured once e chief sent the word out to the nearest fiefdom It usually took over a full day’s journey to travel back and forth, and yet, in just less than half a day later, these Paladins had already shown up
They perused azes to Charlotte over at a distance
“A nun?”
This monastery was empty before I showed up
They were puzzled by the appearance of a nun ostensibly studying their religion
I deliberately spoke in a sarcastic tone of voice “Yeah, she’s sent by the local village She’s also studying the faith quite diligently too Ah, she’s volunteering her services for ht either” Not to forget, she evenbreakfast, lunch, and supper, too “Well, what can I do? She’s not a servant, but a nun How can I reject a fellow believer in the Goddess, right?”
I continued to speak in a slimy tone of voice
The head Paladin looked away from Charlotte and stared at ana”
Huh! Would you look at this guy? Not even a siht to the topic, eh?
Are you taking htly just because I lost my status as the Holy Eers caught that damn woman”
“Yes, we heard,” he spoke without a hint of e his head “We heard that along with the villagers, you fought tooth and nail for their survival”
I fought tooth and nail along with the villagers?
Well, if you’re talking about the battle against zombies near the monastery, then…
“We also heard that they surrounded the King of Gluttony and fought it off with their far hundreds of zoed to defeat the undead in the end, and eventually located the Necromancer”
“…”
“Especially so for that man named Gril He said he defeated over 30 zoana, thereby driving her to a corner…”
Gril, oh dear Gril, since when did you beco bullsht to that degree? I guess the sight I witnessed of you sobbing and wailing like a little baby, unable to even properly take down a single zombie, was all a lie? I had no idea that you had tendencies like those munchkin MCs that hide their powers for one stupid reason or the other!
“I know it’s all an exaggeration, but…” The head Paladin continued on while his gaze shi+fted over to the raves that went up over the past seven days containing several hundreds of the dead “…But, it seeeration You’re supposed to be a Paladin, right? You shouldn’t just haphazardly believe every story a stranger tells you”
Of course, this guy wouldn’t even dream of a possibility that I killed all those zo of Gluttony too It erated, but the tale wasn’t a lie since the villagers really did help le
“Anyways, you probably didn’t co?” I said with a little scowl
“Were you aware that Morgana was affiliated with the Black Order?”
“Yeah, she told ated her”
What the hell? I could’ve learned that fro like it was the greatest secret in the world or so
“She was a trulyfive other villages in the past”
Wowsers, she’s actually a genocidal witch!
Oiiii, what the heck? I was fighting against such a crazy btch?
“What happened to the witch, your highness?”
“Didn’t you hear it fro in the forest”
“Did you do that, your highness?”
WuxiaWorldS i t e Only
“Nope”
I immediately denied it
Are youboy with a frail heart, do soe? My heart is as pure as a maiden’s!
Naturally, I didn’t say as really inif I did just that Which hy I ith a different routine instead
