Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 32

Episode 32.

Jonah’s judgment was very quick.

‘I know my identity.’

As soon as I decided it in my head, my brain worked like crazy. Should I kill the paladin in front of me? no. Too many people know that he came to see them. From the beginning, the possibility of suppression was unknown. The level of power of the Paladins varied greatly from person to person. Even if the man in front of you were a high-ranking paladin, you couldn’t even fight him.

So there was only one answer. escape.

The moment she turned her upper body and was about to jump out the window, Iden’s large hand grabbed her lower back.

Yona was a platinum-ranked adventurer who was classified as a top tier strongman by the guild.

But even before I could fight, I felt helpless.

The Paladin was as fast as a swordsman, and his grip strength seemed endless.

It was a pressure that could dent even an iron plate if applied properly.

Unless it’s the sea. No, I wasn’t confident about the sea.

“I have no intention of hurting you. “Sit down.”

Aiden pulled Jonah back to his original position. She felt like a doll. Aiden spoke in a calm tone.

“Like I said, I have to go to the sea. “Would you accept the request?”

Jonah was a resident of an underwater civilization. In other words, a mermaid. Mermaids live and cultivate civilization in an underwater city called Atlantis, located around 200 meters deep in the Barbon Strait.

That was Bacheksar’s punishment.

A punishment given by the Sun God to the ‘Sierun’ tribe, who worship the God of the Sea.

Until Bacheksar plunged the tribesmen into the deep sea and imprisoned them in Atlantis, they were able to freely travel between sea and land.

It was thanks to the power to transform into a human form on land and a fish-man form at sea.

However, the sea god who gave them power was torn to pieces by Bacheksar and sealed.

Accordingly, the mutation ability of the Sierun tribe also deteriorated in a very strange way.

They live in human form within Atlantis, but as soon as they leave the city and come into contact with the sea, they lose their intelligence and turn into mermaids.

Ironically, the inhabitants of Atlantis used this phenomenon to punish criminals.

The punishment of being banished and turning into a monster. The mermaids who were driven out like that were entering the mouths of humans living on land.

The Sierun tribe lives under the belief that Atlantis and the sea surrounding it are the entire world.

They were continuing their lives in ignorance, forgetting history.

However, Jonah was a special case.

She was the only one who retained the power bestowed by the Sea God intact.

Such a person is born only once per century. A deity left behind by the sea god. It was a supernatural phenomenon created just before he was sealed for the Sierun tribe who worshiped him.

In other words, Jonah was a member of the sea god and the liberator of Atlantis.

Of course, he was just an adventurer now.

“······How much do you know about me?”

Yona decided that there was no point in making excuses, so he asked directly.

Iden was willing to do that. This is because there is no need to use the method you had in mind.

It was so cruel to her.

“I know everything from beginning to end. And your wish and my understanding are consistent.”

Jonah wishes for the liberation of the Sierun tribe.

Iden wanted the remains of Elpis, the great hero sleeping inside Atlantis.

To open the ruins, you had to prove your eligibility by destroying the prison called Atlantis.

Therefore, Jonah’s wish and Aiden’s purpose coincided.

There was a contradiction.

The great hero Elpis was the one who plunged the tribe into the deep sea.

But the condition for visiting her ruins is the liberation of Atlantis.

Iden, of course, knew why. Among the reasons for bringing Saint Uriel here, there was also a part related to that contradiction.

Jonah looked at Aiden with a wary face.

Because she didn’t understand anything from one to ten. How on earth do they know their identity and what understanding do they have?

“······so. “What do you want from me?”

“I said it several times. Take me to the sea.”

“Please tell me clearly.”

“impossible.”

The moment I list the secrets related to Atlantis, Iden dies.

Instead, he took out a bead the size of a fingernail from his pocket.

It was an item obtained from Arhan on the condition that he hide the historical site and shape him into a body.

Jonah’s eyes were extremely fluctuating. Because it was what she was looking for. It was the key to the liberation of Atlantis.

Of course, this bead was not just one. There were a few more ways to obtain it, but they were difficult levels that were impossible for Jonah to obtain.

“How do you do that!”

“I see you recognize me.”

When she reflexively stretched out her hand, Iden immediately put the bead in his arms.

I pushed Jonah’s forehead, which was close to my nose, with the tip of my index finger.

“I will replace your request with this. “What are you going to do?”

Jonah was speechless. The item I had been looking for was right in front of me, and the owner happened to be a paladin of the church.

Additionally, he does not tell us in detail what he knows. I couldn’t make the right decision.

Seeing her slightly trembling eyes, Iden slowly opened his mouth.

“I will warn you in advance. “Don’t even think about stealing.”

Jonah was not a fool. He had no intention of betting his life and his people on something impossible. However, I was just frustrated because I couldn’t understand Aiden’s intentions and purposes.

“······I am not stupid.”

Iden nodded.

“I know why you are conflicted. It may sound a little strange, but can you tell me your story from your own words? “We will be able to talk much more easily.”

The moment information is received from others, the ban is lifted.

“You said you knew what on earth that meant, didn’t you?”

“It’s separate. “There is a reason you have to listen.”

Jonah looked at Iden with suspicious eyes. The silence continued and Iden started to become more and more frustrated.

I frowned.

“That’s strange. In my view, even if you hang yourself, it’s not enough. “Even at this very moment, mermaids are climbing onto the table.”

Jonah looked down at the floor. I heard the sound of teeth grinding.

“Well, I don’t have time. hurry.”

Jonah had no choice.

Iden headed to the inn called Mermaid’s Tears that she had told Daryl about.

It was quite close to the Adventurer’s Guild, so it didn’t take much time to arrive.

The receptionist sitting at the counter told Aiden the room number. It looks like Daryl asked for it. Aiden immediately went up to the second floor and turned the doorknob.

Daryl and Sain looked at Iden. The two of them had cutlery spread out on the floor, probably because they were inspecting equipment.

Daryl always used to prepare his weapons like that before going into battle, but this time he didn’t have to. Because Daryl had a separate mission.

“Are you here? But who is the beautiful woman next to you?”

Aiden answered calmly as he locked the door.

“It’s a mermaid.”

Jonah glanced at Aiden. It seemed like he was scolding me with his eyes, asking me what I was doing.

Daryl and Sain seemed to be wondering how to respond to Iden’s dull joke. Don’t let Aiden feel embarrassed. I couldn’t think of one.

“Haha… I’m sorry. “I’ll get better.”

Iden looked at Daryl with a puzzled expression and pointed to a circular sofa in the middle of the room.

“Everyone, sit down.”

As the city was wealthy, the furniture in the inn was also quite luxurious.

Everyone sat around the round table.

Jonah frowned. This is because there was an ornament made of mermaid skin on her front. It was a blue flower made with scales glued together.

Iden said to Daryl with a slightly bitter expression.

“Switch places with this woman.”

It occurred to Daryl that Iden was also a man. I thought the intention was to sit across from a pretty woman.

“I didn’t notice. “I’ll get better.”

Daryl grinned and switched places with Jonah.

Aiden glanced at everyone and then opened his mouth.

“I will elaborate and get to the point first. Jonah is a mermaid. I’m thinking of going down to Atlantis with her, and you two have separate things to do.”

The ban was eliminated and there was freedom of speech.

There was silence. Daryl and Sain looked at Iden blankly. There was no way Iden could joke twice.

Jonah’s eyes turned to Aiden.

“Is this even necessary?”

“We need people to rescue your people.”

When Atlantis falls, the curse of Bacheksar also disappears. Mermaids are no longer mermaids. It meant returning to being an ordinary human being.

Jonah nodded resignedly. Then he rolled up his arms and held them in front of them.

Scales sprouting up. Daryl and Sein’s pupils dilated greatly.

Daryl was startled and jumped over the back of the sofa.

Sein was surprisingly quick to accept it. I looked at the scales with curious eyes.

“you are pretty.”

Yona seemed a little surprised by Sein’s attitude.

“Pretty?”

“I really like your colors.”

Jonah put his arm close to Sein.

“Do you want to touch it? “I’m fine.”

Sein glanced at Aiden. When Iden nodded, Sein carefully touched her hand.

It felt smooth and moist to the touch.

Iden motioned to Daryl.

“You too, come to your senses and sit down again.”

Daryl scratched the back of his head sheepishly. How can you make a fuss when your younger brother is so calm? I felt embarrassed for no reason.

A moment passed and the chaotic atmosphere calmed down. Iden opened his mouth again.

I started explaining my plans from now on in detail.

Daryl and Sain. And Euron had other things to do while remaining on land. I ended the conversation only after asking several times to make sure he was clear.

Jonah handed Daryl a fish-shaped key.

“It’s a safe key. “No matter how times are like this, there will be sailors who will take off their gold coins stored there.”

It was money that Jonah had accumulated while living as an adventurer.

This concluded the general preparation. There was a knock on the door at just the right time.

‘done.’

It seemed like the saint had escaped the religious order successfully.

“Who are you?”

“Open it.”

Daryl ran over and turned the doorknob. Then it froze hard.

When Iden approached, Euron and a cross-dressing woman were standing outside the door. Even though he was disguised, he could not hide his beauty.

The handsome boy blushed and looked down at the floor, and Daryl couldn’t take his eyes off him.

Finally, he fluttered his nose and tried to reach out his hand. The pretty boy was scared and took a step back. It was his first time seeing a person like Daryl. Even though the inside is clearly visible, it seems somewhat vulgar.

“I will get better. “I guess my taste is men.”

Iden sighed deeply.
