Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 43

Episode 43 (paid start).

Assassination of the principality’s heir.

Iden thought deeply about Xerath’s proposal.

The empire and principality were bound to come into conflict at some point. This is because the doctrines and ideologies pursued were very different.

Not only were there religious issues, but overall values themselves were at odds.

In addition, the principality was where a group of devil worshipers roamed freely. Aiden’s main enemy. In the end, if you had to face an opponent, it would be better to step on them.

I was conscious of Kadak’s existence and the church’s situation.

The former was resolved on its own, and the latter was controlled by Xerath and Tegain, so there seemed to be no need to worry.

But it wasn’t a war.

Assassination, as suggested by Xerath, was the optimal method in Iden’s opinion.

After much deliberation, I answered.

“It’s enough.”

Xerath grinned.

“I thought you would agree.”

“What about the number of personnel involved? It would be advantageous to organize it with a very small number of elites.”

For Iden, 5 or less seemed to be the optimal level.

“I agree. Already, the Holy Wisdom Execution Unit consists of four people, including you, three in the second stage.”

Xerath sounded somewhat disappointed.

“The first rank and highest ranks are waiting in the north. We can’t use them.”

Iden nodded at the customer.

“It seems like the crowning of the king of beasts is a foregone conclusion.”

“That’s right. Based on your report, the empire sent a separate investigation team, but there were no survivors.”

The decision to dispatch the highest forces to the north was very appropriate. This is because the King of Baeksu’s departure south was something that should never have happened.

Aiden said calmly.

“I can’t help it. They are enough.”

The world thinks that even the lowest level of the Holy Spirit is a monster.

If you were the third rank in such an organization, it was overwhelming power. And even Aiden. It wasn’t a composition worth complaining about.

Xerath smiled in satisfaction.

“Is this because he’s a hero recorded in the Bible? He’s full of spirit.”

“Don’t make fun of him.”

He shook his head. Then he spoke in a calm voice.

“I’m not kidding. But I just want to say this. If you focus only on success, you will become insensitive to the possibility of failure. Always be cautious.”

“I will listen carefully.”

Iden also had no intention of being conceited.

Xerath nodded and immediately brightened the mood.

“Okay then. Let me introduce you to the crew that will be with you.”

When I opened the carriage door, familiar faces were waiting.

Valkyrie Siron was a large man with his entire body covered in bandages, a holy wizard.

These were the aspects who had a minor conflict due to the matter of Tyrun in the North and North.

Siron smiled brightly and looked at Aiden.

“I’m glad to see you again. This time, we can show off each other’s skills. This is Valkyrie Siron.”

“I am Paladin Iden.”

The large holy wizard slightly lowered his head.

“It is an honor to join the cause with a hero I greatly respect. My name is Holy Wizard Jude.”

After shaking hands, I turned to the bandaged man, but he didn’t say anything.

Siron opened his mouth instead.

“His name is Goth, but you can call him Bandage. Everyone calls him that. He’s a priest, but he can’t speak because he has no tongue.”

A priest who can’t memorize prayers. It was unusual, but I thought there might be another way, so I passed on it.

The organization was standard. Paladin Valkyrie Holy Mage High Priest.

Iden nodded and looked back at Xerath.

“I will listen to the outline from them.”

“Sure.”

Xerath scanned the aspects with his eyes.

“Don’t be territorial just because the rolled stone took over as captain.”

Jude, a large wizard, smiled and shook his head.

“Chief of Staff. The point of view in the Bible is Sir Iden. I also don’t like being portrayed as a narrow-minded person. Haha.”

As he said, the Bible began to contain Aiden’s story. If Paidna’s Book recognizes the assassination of Confucius as a major event, it will record it again this time.

Aiden said as he got out of the carriage.

“Master, I will ask you one last favor. Please judge us fairly. Most of the mermaids have converted, and there is room for the remaining members.”

Xerath nodded slowly.

“God embraces those who atone with their own will. I just follow God’s will.”

From now on, Seirun leaves Iden’s hands. I just hoped there would be good results.

Aiden showed his courtesy and turned his foot around.

*

The place we headed straight to was an inn that was once known as ‘Mermaid’s Tears.’

However, the sign was nowhere to be seen. It seemed like they had removed it to change the name.

While the Aspects were helping prepare for Xerath’s convoy, Iden was saying goodbye to his original party.

The siblings and Euron leave for the North, and Uriel and Jonah head to the church.

Yupe, who was being looked after by Sein, ran towards Aiden as soon as she saw him.

It cried happily as if it had met its mother and snuggled into Aiden’s genitals.

Aiden stroked Yupe’s head once and looked at the siblings.

“I have something to ask Daryl.”

“Yes, ask any questions. You will be fine.”

“How much do you know about Kadak?”

Daryl scratched his head, looking a little perplexed.

“Use. Actually, I don’t know anything. He’s an old man who doesn’t want to talk about himself, so I haven’t heard anything.”

I asked Sein the same question, but the answer I got was similar.

“Then, didn’t Kadak say anything else? About your birth or the reason you were taken away.”

Daryl shook his head.

“Even if I ask, he turns it around subtly.”

The same goes for Sein. In the first place, that bitch didn’t even know that she was a half-demon.

Sein said.

“Master told me to just be with the hero when he leaves. He left behind only those words and suddenly disappeared.”

They said they didn’t even know where it was headed.

Iden nodded.

“Okay, but why are you suddenly asking me that?”

“It’s nothing.”

I immediately changed the topic.

“Don’t waste more time than that, get as much as you can and come back.”

“Of course I do. I’m already prepared to poop.”

Euron also smiled and answered energetically.

“I have a surprise for you.”

Aiden patted their backs and approached Uriel.

She completely removed her male attire and returned to her usual appearance. She was so beautiful that tongues rolled out.

Uriel looked at Aiden with worried eyes.

“······It looks like there is no time for you to rest. The place you are going this time will also be rough.”

“It’ll be okay.”

A shadow passed over Yuriel’s face. However, you can’t stop it. She took a step toward Iden.

With a gentle hand, I brushed away the scar on Aiden’s cheek. Thanks to her occasional treatment, the scars had faded considerably.

“Don’t get hurt.”

Euron and Daryl didn’t think that those eyes were simply those of a saint who was worried about a patient. For some reason, I felt like I had to turn my head.

Iden nodded.

“I’ll try my best.”

Yuriel took out a small box from her arms and handed it over. There was ointment in it.

“Be sure to apply it.”

“No need.”

“It’s a name.”

Iden stared at her and then answered.

“All right.”

“Take this too. It will help.”

She took a small ring with a ring from her ring finger and handed it to me.

Iden did not refuse the favor but accepted it.

Then he pointed to Jonah.

“Please take good care of Jonah and Seirun.”

The church would educate converted mermaids separately to help them adapt to the empire, but it was highly likely that this would not be done systematically.

However, if the saint cares, the church will also show sincerity.

Yuriel nodded.

“I’ll take full responsibility until the end, so don’t worry too much.”

“Thank you. Then I’ll have to go.”

Uriel tried to ask him to be careful one more time, but just smiled sweetly and sent him off.

Because I wanted to make a bright impact.

The rest of the group also waved.

“Take care of yourself!”

“When I see you again, I’ll be a little more competent!”

“Please come back, Holy Knight.”

Aiden responded and left the inn.

*

A black carriage led by four huge warhorses passed through the gates of Illyas and ran through the yellow reed field.

A red guillotine pattern decorated the black surface. Because it symbolized the punishment for achievement, no one could come close.

There were no raids by thieves or bandits. If you had that much guts to begin with, you would be living a different life.

The destination was the East.

Aiden, who was inside, had heard the general plan from the Aspects.

“For the sake of efficient control, I will treat you in detail from now on. Do you feel any inconvenience?”

Siron quickly shook his head. Bandage stared at Aiden in silence.

Holy wizard Jude smiled and answered.

“Can it be inconvenient? Do as you wish.”

Iden unfolded the map and pointed to the eastern forest.

Forest of giants. The vast sea of water that covered the eastern part of the continent was literally the domain of giants.

The principality lay beyond.

“The stopping point is the Eastern County of Carshua. Leave the carriage at the territory and travel by horse.”

Because the forest was terrain where carriages could not operate.

But now I had no choice but to use this complex.

Even if you drive your horse all day to the east, it will take you a long time, so you shouldn’t waste your stamina that way.

It was a mission that required the best condition. A resting place was needed and the saints agreed.

Siron said, looking at the forest marked on the map.

“Giants are excellent warriors. If possible, we should avoid clashing with them, but honestly, I would like to compete with them at least once.”

Desire flashed in Siron’s eyes. Iden seemed to know what she was thinking.

“Avoid unnecessary battles until you arrive at the principality.”

Siron seemed a little discouraged by Aiden’s firm voice. However, I quickly understood and nodded.

“······Because I’m not going there to have fun.”

Having said that, there may actually be a fighting chance.

This is because giants who enjoy fighting to the death are amazing at discovering the secrets of the strong. With this level of power, their chances of getting caught have increased.

When an encounter occurs, it is literally a fight to the death, so the situation will only end when one side dies.

Jude looked at Aiden with a somewhat serious expression.

“Sir, the opponent we need to prepare for may not be a giant.”

The top predators in the forest were giants, so it was safe to say that there was no one stronger than them.

Iden cast a questioning look.

“What does that mean?”

Jude opened his mouth heavily.

“According to a preliminary investigation by the intelligence corps, it is said that the forest closest to the principality. From the very beginning, giants within a radius of several tens of kilometers were killed in droves. I heard that the seeds of the “Gadora” tribe had completely dried up. That was only three days ago. ”

Was it a rivalry between giants? That’s what I thought for a moment, but Jude said it wasn’t giants we had to prepare for.

It meant that another predator had appeared in the forest.

Aiden asked calmly.

“Has the species been identified?”

“I didn’t see it. However, all of the livers were missing from the giants’ corpses.:”

“Iden’s eyes suddenly wavered.

“······Any other clues?”

“After a quick look, I found only strands of silver hair and gray hair. .I heard that it is not a body part of a known race.”

Aiden’s expression gradually became distorted.

Jude and Siron began to panic as they noticed the atmosphere.

“Oh, Sir Aiden?”

Aiden shook off his rising emotions. I swallowed.
