The man looked to be in his older years and lacked a tier 3 class Not everyone that was old possessed a high level This priest probably gave up on huntingthe word of God which would hinder any progress A priest was a battle class, it required experience points fro class that could still continue by fashi+oning ites like strength or power They had a co was provided for theer tier 2 priests would be sent to the dungeons but after going past the hundredth level they would have an option of quitting

This was his first tiure of this church, Kassia was also a tier 2 priest but her level was inferior After seeing the knocked-out Jasper for ahis nose

“This younghim but Sister, you will explain yourself to etic fashi+on before they carried Jasper to the infire, it only had about ten s Soh free roo to happen to him?”

“I’m not sure, I think the larva should have been killed by the healing spell…”

“You think?”

“I’m sorry, I don’t know much about these creatures…”

Lobelia raised her voice at Roland as she de-term effects of these monsters on a person’s mind were The creature should have been dead and Jasper didn’t turn into a tentacle monster either His complexion also looked better now

“I… Renny, you need to get exa?”

“What? I could be sick too?”

“He's probably fine, didn’t you notice how your other friend started acting after we stepped inside the church?”

“Now that you say it…”

Everyone started thinking back to the h there was no holy barrier inside of this building, healing spells were cast constantly and holy water was being made as well These Abyssal Larvae couldn’t stomach even the faintest of the divine arts Now Roland was sure about it, if so some side effects

“But to be on the safe side, he should be exa Renny by his hand and dragging hi exa with Kassia that would probably have a long talk with hi the abyssal parasite problem

‘I’m not sure I can trust these people with this issue’

Yet this wasn’t quite over, there was one important person in this city that needed to know the full story, this was the city lord His brother was the city lord of Reeka and the fiasco would probably be pushed on hi the cult to sneak into their midst

‘That is if they actually tell them the truth, he could try to pass it off as a conflict between cultists and religious zealots that the city was caught between…’

“There you are, where are Armand and Lobelia?”

“They are in the church, we had a problem…”

“You don’t mean that one of them…”

“Calm down and let me explain, both of them are fine but one of Lobelia’s friends…”

Roland was done with the church for now so he decided to go outside There he parted ith the four-man adventurer party that needed to find an inn for the day They all agreed to meet up on another day after the commotion died down The four also needed to decide if they actually wanted to stay here, after seeing another infected person it wouldn’t be odd to leave

After they were gone Lobelia showed up along with Agni Due to the accident with Jasper, he had spent a lot ive her an explanation that her siblings were just keeping their friends company

“T-this is horrible, so it really reached our city… e do?”

Elodia was shocked by the revelation, it was one thing to hear about a troubling fact and then another to be involved in it If one person was afflicted by the parasite then more of thes that we could do, but I’ll need to get soh-quality potions…”

“You need to buy potions?”

“Yes, for now, you better return to the orphanage, I don’t think that any of theht? The idiot is inside with Lobelia, it'll be safer if you wait for the two first, before going back”

Elodia nodded and didn’t argue the fact Roland knew her well enough to know that she wouldn’t be able to sleep through the night knowing that one of her fae creature She was soon gone and he was left with a confused ruby wolf that just wanted to go ho to a close as the sun inched down the horizon There wasn’t o to the shops to buy proper stock for what he was planning This problem with the cult wasn’t an easy issue to handle but it needed to be prioritized While the church fought with the cult they would probably funnel their forces to that forest which gave him and others tiot that larva frouild it wouldn’t be surprising if all of theotten it froe…’

He had a tiny theory when it cae and the parasites They could have a limited nuh that area, they couldn't infect everyone Instead, those people would be held up by an illusion of the village and just pass through without being harather information to sell it off as a side job

“The nuht…”

“Infected?”

“Hh a few potential strategies a familiar voice called out to him When he turned his face he saoman in a maid uniform Her cat ears were pointed towards hi about For people from beast tribes like her, it wasn’t hard to hear what he hispering, all thanks to their enhanced senses

‘I need to stopto myself…’

“Good day, Mr Wayland, the Lord would like to have a ith you”

“Oh?”

Not that much ti along with Agni and the rest did he actually go through a proper checkpoint Perhaps the guards had sent word to Arthur that he had returned

‘Did he order the?’

“Is there so that Lord Arthur requires of me that can’t wait until tomorrow?”

“You really like to joke around Mr Wayland, I’m sure that you knohy the lord would like to see you”

Roland just shrugged while showing a weak smile, he wanted to see if it was really about the incident in Reeka or just soe for Arthur to be interested in what happened in the city but it was surprising that he knew that Roland was there to begin with

‘Did he put souild?’

Arthur Valerian didn’t possess much power in the city but as a noble, he did have some money It wouldn’t be hard to bribe so themselves to the ain so his net of influence inside the city

“I wasto visit him, I do think that we have a lot to talk about It won’t be a probleni that was looking at Mary with perked-up ears The ave a nod Soon the two and one large alking towards the city lord's mansion There Roland would need to explain the situation that the island they were on had found itself in
