< 24 : Corrupting Sword (2) >

Evan Allamere.

Evan, the Heretic Inquisitor of Crossbridge and the eldest son of the Alemir family, was returning to Crossbridge after a short vacation.

The information Evan found out during this vacation could be a big shock to the Holy Land.

Jundong of the Evil Spirit Church.

And the advent of the upcoming hero.

Either way, it was undoubtedly more difficult as time went on.

So, even if Evan was a bit overworked, he chose the method of returning to the Holy Land as quickly as possible.

He started moving along the shortcut he had been told through his younger brother, Huss.

“The road is quite rough.”

Tackle- tuck–.

Evan, who was urging the horse he was riding, looked around and opened his mouth.

The shortcut Huss was talking about was more difficult than the road he normally took.

It wasn’t enough to cause a problem if I ran with care, but it was a part where I could understand why people didn’t pass by it often.

If Evan had had enough time, he would not have chosen such an adventure.

It’s been several hours since I ran down the road, dusting the dirt.

Evan, who was determined to change his horse when he arrived at the border, found others on the road around the time the summer sun was setting at noon.

“…is there anyone?”

On top of the shabby looking wagon, a few people were visible.

Since there were still quite a few streets left, I could barely see the human form.

However, it was clear that an accident would occur if he continued to run with this momentum.

Evan grabbed the reins when he saw the carriage in the distance and started to slow down.

Hee hee-!

As Evan moved while reducing the speed of the running horse, the eyes of the people in the wagon turned to Evan.

two men. and one woman.

That was all Evan could see in the party.

“Someone is coming from the other side.”

One of the men who was watching Evan running from afar opened his mouth.

The young man reflected in Evan’s eyes had a simple face.

Seeing him sitting on the driver’s seat and holding the reins, it was clear that he was a young driver or messenger.

all the way all the way

Evan, who approached the carriage by moving the horse that was slow enough to be visible, stopped the horse.

Hehe! Evan’s words, snoring harshly, came to a complete halt in his seat.

It is said that his brother Huss lives here, but Evan was only an outsider from the Holy Land.

Evan got off his horse and slowly approached the carriage to ask them for directions.

“If it’s okay with you, I’d like to ask you some directions.”

Evan, who started to approach the carriage, said while wiping the dirt off his body.

Evan’s clothes had a lot of dust on it because he had been riding for a long time.

One of the men facing him showed a warning sign as he saw Evan approaching, brushing the dust.

The man wearing a robe looked quite old, unlike the young man who was in charge of the driver.

As Evan’s gaze turned to the man who was looking at him, the man who met his gaze opened his mouth to Evan.

“If it’s a road, where are you going?”

“I’m on my way to the Holy Land.”

“The Holy Land… Are you a paladin?”

None of the elements representing the temple remained in the clothes Evan was wearing now.

Nevertheless, the man who faced Evan asked him if he was a paladin, showing a warning sign.

Ordinary people have no reason to be wary of passersby heading to the Holy Land.

It clearly looked suspicious.

breakage.

Evan, who raised his divine power, sensed an unpleasant aura that was caught in his sense of humor.

There is only one divine power and one energy that resists.

sonic power.

It was the power of inhumanity that the warlocks had built up by making sacrifices.

“If you were a paladin, what would you do?”

A warlock who is wary of the paladin and his party.

It was a strange combination.

Evan’s role as a heretic inquisitor in the Holy Land is to deal with heretics and corrupt wizards.

Evan, feeling an unusual sign, naturally put his hand on the scabbard and proceeded.

Originally, he was planning to simply ask the way and pass by.

But it was after knowing too many things to just ask the way.

“How do you do it? I was just curious.”

“I see. You seem curious.”

“I’m usually like that.”

The neck of the warlock who faced Evan moved in the stiff atmosphere.

gulp.

The warlock swallowed his saliva and flinched his hand.

The warlock reflected in Evan’s eyes didn’t seem to have been very successful.

It was at a level that could only be dealt with by the ranks of third-class investigators in the Empire.

If he had gone on his own, it wouldn’t have taken a long time to clean up.

After making the decision, Evan took one more step towards the Warlock.

“Certainly, the warlocks must be very curious.”

“What now…”

“Because I won’t touch forbidden magic out of any curiosity.”

——Shock.

A sword was pulled out of Evan’s scabbard with a fricative sound.

He drew out his sword in a natural, flowing motion, and swung it straight at the warlock in front of him.

It was a swift sword strike that was impossible to even respond to some wizards.

Kaang!

It was the grip wrapped in darkness that stopped Evan’s swiftly swinging sword.

When the sword he was wielding at the Warlock was blocked, Evan frowned and looked at the grip that blocked the sword.

A hand reaching out from the dark shadows was blocking Evan’s sword.

“It was dangerous, Roan.”

The shadow that blocked Evan’s sword came out from the foot of the girl behind the warlock.

Beyond the shadow blocking the sword.

The gray-haired girl sitting in the carriage was looking down at the two of them.

The girl was holding a large book and smiling innocently.

Seeing the girl who blocked the sword by moving the shadow, the warlock next to her answered with a sigh of relief.

“Uhhh… Thank you. If it wasn’t for the Apostle, I’d definitely have died.”

“Be careful. He seems to be a scary person.”

“It seems so. However, I did not think that I would swing a sword all the way.”

black magician. and the apostle.

Evan, who overheard their conversation, took a few steps back and began to be wary.

The magic he had just encountered was very unfamiliar to Evan.

It’s the first high rank magic I’ve ever encountered.

It was a different being from the nature of the warlock in front of him.

As the girl moved the shadow, Evan could sense the immense magical power around her.

Magic like a tidal wave with no end in sight.

It seemed clear that he was a high-ranking wizard who could not even be countered at any level.

“What the hell are you?”

“Are you curious about who I am?”

“Yes. Reveal your identity.”

“If you want to hear someone else’s identity, wouldn’t it be polite to introduce yourself first?”

tock. tock.

said the girl, tapping her book with her finger.

Every time the girl’s slender fingers touched the book, a powerful magic wave spread from her book.

Contrary to his youthful-looking face, it was an incredible level of magic.

Nevertheless, Evan quickly finished the scales in his head at the appearance of a girl who would reveal her identity if she just got along a little bit.

The opponent in front of you is a force that could be a threat to the Holy Land.

At best, if you could know about your opponent by your own identity, you could say that it was a cheap deal in its own way.

After making the decision, Evan revealed his name to the girl.

“My name is Evan Alamere! I am a paladin who serves the god of honor.”

“God of honor? It seems that the previous act was not honorable at all.”

“…the evil one has no honor.”

Seeing the girl sarcastic about herself, Evan tried to ignore her words.

It wasn’t something I spit out with the intention of going around in moderation.

In the midst of a battle, there is always a trade-off between life and death.

The only thing that can fight an honorable battle is only an opponent who has the qualifications to defend the honor.

This was also stated in the doctrine of the temple.

Despite Evan’s answer, which might seem half-shame, the girl nodded as if she understood.

“Isn’t that right? First of all, I heard about myself, so it would be polite to introduce myself as well.”

The girl who was sitting in the carriage got up.

The girl, holding the book, came down with gentle steps and faced Evan, who was glaring at her from below.

Even though it was at a height that could easily fall, the shadow’s hand reached out and supported the girl.

tuk.

The girl who landed safely on the ground looked at Evan with a light smile.

Soon, a gentle girl’s voice resounded in the narrow street.

“My name is Euthenia High Lost. I am the first apostle to serve the Great.”

“Apostle… Are you referring to the apostle of the evil spirit?”

“To call a great person an evil spirit is very rude.”

Aside from Yutenia’s displeased appearance, Evan heard of her identity and fell into serious trouble.

Apostle of evil spirits.

Its existence meant one thing.

It means that the influence of the evil spirit has grown enough to send down an apostle to this world.

Evan, who looked at Yutenia with a nervous face, raised his sword.

If I could remove the apostle in front of me, I had to do it right now.

A fight was inevitable from the start.

“I was just telling the truth.”

“Was he so rude?”

“A man-eating god is not worthy of respect. Those who turn their eyes away from even that obvious truth, we have decided to call them evil spirits.”

He held the sword to punish evil.

That was the path Evan Alamere chose.

If you were going to run away because you were afraid of being glared by the evil spirit, you wouldn’t have taken on the job of a paladin from the start.

Evan’s gaze, who had taken a pose, looked at Euthenia with life in his eyes.

“If I did something stupid, would I regret it?”

“If you were afraid to run away from death, you wouldn’t have chosen a paladin.”

Hearing Evan’s story, Yutenia let out a short sigh.

The gray eyes, immersed in contemplation, lit the book in her hand.

A thick book of unknown identity.

And Evan standing behind him.

A powerful wave of magic flowed out from Yutenia’s body, who looked at the two alternately.

“Okay. I didn’t mean to just let it go from the beginning.”

Utenia opened the book she was holding and declared to Evan.

At the same time, countless numbers of hands began to reach out from beyond the shadows of Yutenia.

A realm of incomprehensible that knows no end.

The hands overflowing from beyond became waves that aimed at Evan and began to flow.

First Apostle, Eutenia High Lost.

The Apostle of the Evil God, who was endowed with the power of God, revealed his power toward Evan.

Facing Yutenia’s attack, Evan rushed forward, injecting divine power into the sword he was holding.
