164 Lesson 34: The Divine Son and the God Killer (1/2)

”My name is Noah Carnelius. I hold the position of pope in the Kingdom of Caritas”

When I said that and the girl in front of me lowered her head with a pepper, I didn't know what to answer and looked around the room without meaning.

Black Corpse Ghost Now I'm in a command room on the Fourth Defensive Wall. room with the Seals before the onset of the raid. By the way, the other faces are out of their seats. Nothing else, because the girl in front of her wanted it.

Having buried the undead, supposedly my best balls in the Black Corpse Ghost Titis Forest, I returned to the Fourth Defensive Wall while protecting the Miroslavs and their advance party. I didn't know when there was going to be the next raid, so I couldn't afford to listen to the circumstances on the road, and I don't know any details.

However, by introducing myself to the girl, I think I've figured out the purpose of that well-spoken skeleton.

From the feel of eating my soul, that skeleton felt ”though not as fantastic a species”. In fact, the level hasn't risen from '30' either. One or so of them might have gone up before eating the gods on the island, but whatever, they were to that extent opponents to me.

However, it is certain that the city there was a force that could be destroyed on a single horseback. I don't think such a demon was wandering through the Titis forest without meaning. I don't care if he decides he was after the Pope.

The question is, why is the Pope here - and why is His Holiness here? If my memory is certain, the Holy See should be on its way to Horus, the king's capital, by now.

In the first place, is this girl really holy?

I don't know anyone under the Holy See. Before he was banished the swordsman, he had spoken to his father, Lord Carnelius, on a banquet in the presence of his father's deputy, but by that time, His Holiness had already moved from empire to holy kingdom.

However, I hear rumors of the world even if I've never met them. Some of the rumors surrounding the Holy See refer to appearance, the most famous of which is that ”the contemporary Pope's Holiness is a ship's eye”.

Eyes. Indeed, the girl in front of me is well equipped with gemstones - and when I thought about it so much, you guessed this suspicion, and the girl said a word ”excuse me” and then turned her back on me.

And with his hands on his face and hair, he's doing something nasty.

Slightly, when the girl turned to me, her hand was gripped like a round pebble. Her hair has also changed and her forehead covers the area around her left eye.

You admitted the color of understanding to my gaze, the girl moves her hair one way or the other to show her left eye. I found a cavity there. I exhaled small.

”I see, you were prosthetic”

Nested ”Yes, Lord Swordsman. It is an item that is granted magic, so once it is done, it will not be noticed by others. However, some of you with excellent observation seem to feel uncomfortable looking at me. My lord and my lord did.”

History Girl - That's what Pope Noah Carnelius of the Holy Kingdom said, blinking two or three times to get his sight in order before beginning to explain this one.

According to that, the Holy King predicted from the beginning the enemy raid.

Usually, the Holy Capital where the Pope lives (the King's Capital of the Holy Kingdom) is physically and magically laid with a strong guard, and the demons of immortality are not even easy to break into. This case of the Pope leaving the Sacred Capital is an excellent opportunity for the enemy.

Having thought so, the Holy Kingdom considered taking this situation backwards. In other words, it was decided that it was a good opportunity to exhaust the enemies that were usually lurking in the dark.

Rehearsal Depending on this judgment, the Holy King has planned to lurk personnel to Canary and return the enemies he raids. Of course, the Pope is a shadow fighter. It is this group that is now aiming for the King's Capital from the south.

In the meantime, the real Pope enters the Kingdom of Canaries one foot away with the advance party. That was the whole plan.

If there is a ship-eyed cleric in the advance party, there is a risk that he will be spotted by a well-behaved enemy. It seems the prosthetic eye was a measure to avoid it.

Having heard a series from the mouth of the late Pope, I was convinced that there was one question at the same time.

”Normally, when operating like that, I think the general is waiting for the success of the operation in a safe sacred capital.”

”If I hadn't moved from the Holy Capital, they would have seen through the operation. Besides, if you wait for the success of the operation before you leave, you will probably be delayed in building that junctional magic.”

Then inevitably the poison damage spreads as well. Conversely, if we go in first with the advance party, we can devote only that much time to building the junction.

After explaining that much, the Pope got sick of feeling sorry for himself.

”In the end, after everything had been spotted, it even damaged the people of this country. If you make a mistake, even your fellow swordsmen... no apologies.”
