Dark Fantasy Paladin Chapter 59

Episode 59

Aiden drove Petra very roughly towards the Holy Empire.

A lot of thoughts invaded my head, but I tried to shake them off.

I ran like that until the sun set, then suddenly stopped and turned around. There was no sign of anything at all.

It looks like Saya is no longer following him. Aiden looked up at the night sky with distant eyes and then hurried his steps again.

*

Liberated Atlantis and sunk the principality. Immediately afterwards, the Benzema sect was also eradicated.

It was a feat that Iden achieved in less than two months.

Although the destruction of the denomination was not recorded in the Bible, news of the victory spread quickly.

The time when the sun burns most clearly. The drawbridge of the Holy Imperial Kingdom was crowded with countless people.

The middle of the bridge was empty, and nobles and commoners were separated on the left and right, facing each other.

Their behavior and mood were completely different, but their expressions were bright.

Among the shabby people, a merchant dressed in attire smiled and said.

“Oh my, you black-eyed idiots. Are you all standing here after reading a line from the Bible?”

Someone shouted angrily.

“Hey! “I don’t have eyes to read, but I have great ears to hear. What kind of nonsense are you talking about?”

“Hehe, then why don’t you memorize verse 27 of the New Testament epigraph?”

The angry man opened his mouth and then closed it.

The merchant, who gained momentum, glanced around and said.

“Tsk, tsk, is it really okay for those living in the era recorded in the Bible to not be able to recite at least one feat of a hero? “Oh my, you stupid bastards.”

The merchant raised the corners of his mouth and exhaled as if he were being generous.

“Open your ears and listen intently.”

I cleared my throat a few times and continued again.

“New Testament Epistle, Chapter 17 of the Gospel of Aiden. When he said that his creativity was inferior due to the amputation of both his legs, his malice was weakened. Now, isn’t this a catchy phrase?”

People who couldn’t understand at once looked at each other and nodded as if they understood.

Someone among them asked with a puzzled expression.

“So heroes don’t have legs?”

The merchant was embarrassed by the sudden question and scratched his head.

“······Is that possible? God must have given it again. “Why are you asking such a thing?”

The merchant’s explanation was enough to convince the residents. To them, it seemed natural that God would personally take care of his messenger.

The nobles who were watching this from the other side shook their heads as if they were pitiful.

“Look, son. These are things with low blood flowing through them. “How do you look when you can’t even tell the difference between heaven and earth?”

“It’s vulgar. father.”

“Yes, never think of me as a person.”

The middle-aged noble who spoke like that was Count Kaidal Mormont. The party of the aristocratic faction. He was a feudal lord with a huge territory in the northwest.

A pot-bellied nobleman approached him and smiled like a sycophant.

“Oh, Your Excellency Count. Were you here? “Everyone has been to the Vatican, so please go quickly.”

Great nobles like Kaidal were waiting for a hero inside the Holy Empire.

They came from far and wide to attend today’s investiture ceremony and blood delivery ceremony.

Kaidal shook his head at the pot-bellied suggestion.

“You can’t do that. Isn’t this the return of a hero who set history in motion again? At least I got to see it go through the Arc de Triomphe. “Is that the right thing to do?”

Baron Gandola smiled awkwardly. Count Kaidal had a knack for prodding people in a strange way.

“ha ha ha. This is absolutely correct. “I will let you know that the Count said so later when I am sitting with the hero separately.”

Kaidal frowned.

“Are you going to keep talking nonsense?”

As Kaidal glared at him, the Baron sweatdropped.

“Oh no, I just…”

“I want it to disappear before my eyes.”

The baron was confused by the firm order to congratulate the guests, but with difficulty opened his mouth again.

“Actually, I came here because I have something to tell you.”

The Baron continued while looking at Kaidal.

“His Royal Highness the First Princess is also participating in the investiture ceremony…”

Kaidal’s expression crumpled for a moment.

Lapelia La Bachequesar. As the first princess of the empire, she was a woman who was at odds with the noble faction.

She was a person whose reputation was sharply divided.

A traitor equipped with the qualities of an empress. Or, Manjong, who harbors the seeds of a tyrant.

The aristocratic party leaders were putting all their efforts into promoting the latter.

Because they never wanted Lapelia to sit on the throne.

Kaidal’s displeased expression quickly returned to calm.

“If you’re done talking, go on your way.”

The Baron was the lowest member of the noble faction, so it was awkward for him to enter the chapel first. I moved to a place far away from Kaidal and settled down.

Around this time, everyone was chatting loudly about topics related to heroes. The guard’s voice rang loudly across the drawbridge.

ㅡ Lord Aiden, this is a triumph!

Drum, drum, drum – the victory bell ended the prelude with a dull sound.

Soon the choir started singing and the people cheered.

He raised his hands high and shouted.

“””hurray! hurray! Long live the hero!”””

Iden passed through the entrance and slowly drove the huge warhorse.

A castle armor with most of the plating peeling off, a castle spear covered with hair and dirt, and a poulaine covered in mud.

The raw appearance without any embellishment made people’s hearts tremble even more.

He was as dignified as a triumphal general and overflowing with majesty. He was truly a hero recognized by the times.

People praised Aiden’s name at the top of their voices. They cheered and applauded.

Iden read the text. Noble hypocrisy was causing divine power to grow rapidly.

“You receive revelation from God.”

“The hero receives revelation from God!”

It was one of the superstitions that Aiden’s actions gave birth to.

The habit of checking the status window was mistakenly believed to be the hero’s communication with God.

As Iden showed a satisfied expression, people began to speculate on its meaning.

I didn’t know that later, we would fight over who was right and who was wrong, and it might spread strangely again.

Aiden passed the bridge and patted the hands that people held out.

With that, we entered the interior of the Holy Kingdom.

*

The investiture ceremony and the blood delivery ceremony were one of the most solemn events in the empire.

It was also a ceremony that was never performed because no hero appeared for 200 years.

Therefore, the empire and the church accepted today as a very meaningful day.

Because it was not possible to proceed haphazardly, Iden also had to keep himself neat and clean.

I trimmed my hair and beard and finished taking a bath.

The pure white robe worn in place of holy armor was a form of clothing that proved one’s holy family.

A huge sun was decorating the back.

Since the body was very well-dressed, the flashy application did not seem excessive at all.

Aiden, fully dressed, stopped in front of the door of the main chapel.

The security informed the inside, and after a while, the huge door slowly opened from side to side.

The exposed interior was calm and subdued. Everyone bowed their heads with solemn expressions and prayed in their hearts.

Most of the people gathered here were magnates who ran the empire and the prosperous kingdom.

Saints, including seven saints of the royal family, whose blood flows from the holy clan gods, the lineage of great noble heroes. And the main axes of the church and the empire were in place.

A platinum altar was placed where they were looking, softly lighting the interior.

The chapel was creating a bluish dawn.

The Pope stood on the altar and looked at Aiden. A loud voice continued.

“God is looking for his messenger. “Come closer.”

Aiden took a step forward with a pious expression on his face. I walked slowly toward the altar, stepping on the pure white carpet.

People kept their eyes fixed on the front and did not look away.

As Iden walked up the stairs, they could finally see the hero.

The wide back covered the Pope.

Aiden immediately got down on one knee and bowed his head.

“Paladin Iden. “I see you, the Holy Father.”

The Pope nodded slowly and opened the Bible. Then he pulled out his sword and placed it on Aiden’s shoulder.

“Everyone, close your eyes.”

He looked around the audience, then shifted his gaze again and began reading the passage.

It was a calm voice that was nice to hear.

“God has looked down on the future generations so much that he has shed light on them. Those in power should not covet him, but should only support his will and have faith in him. God’s eye burns in the darkness as it does now. Burn the history of shame and lead us to God. Eventually, when you are absorbed into the sato, your eyes will look down on the world together with God. “Saint Bacheksar.”

Aiden responded.

“Those who are considered messengers of God will sacrifice their souls and bodies to cry out for destruction of evil and conquer evil intentions. “On the day when I finally fulfill my calling, I will give all the glory to God.”

The Pope turned and lifted the chalice from the altar.

“Receive the Precious Blood.”

He passed the glass to Aiden.

People thought that the transparent liquid flowing was Bacheksar’s blood.

Aiden turned his head and drank it all at once. There was no taste or scent.

The Pope spoke again.

“With this, the hero formed a sacred lineage. “Live a life that will not be an embarrassment to your descendants.”

A pure white haze flowed from the Pope’s hand.

The light began to form an unknown language.

“Iden la Valenstalga. “The advice tells you to be conflicted and agonizing, so follow its meaning and always doubt and reflect on your faith.”

Aiden responded and stood up.

His expression was very pious, but inside he was satisfied with the result.

It’s been 3 years since I fell into this world. This is because Aiden got here much sooner than planned.

It was the second button I put on.

The fact that Arhan’s visit to the palace was brought forward by five years had a very significant effect.

I couldn’t help but like Sein.

While I was lost in thought for a moment, the bluish interior became brightly bright.

Everyone clapped their hands and blessed Aiden.

Iden thought it would be nice to end the event at this point, but it was just beginning.

There were a lot of cumbersome procedures waiting, including the baptism ceremony and the reading of prayers.

The boring time passed very slowly.

*

It was decided that the Sanctuary of Iden would be built in the Principality.

Since the expedition to recapture the Holy Land was essential for the later development, the fact that Iden could control the outpost was a huge advantage.

It was decided to welcome back those who had run away from the principality as residents of the sanctuary.

Although the trial was not yet over, there was a high probability that they would be acquitted.

This is because the fact that it was suppressed was taken into account and Iden completely purified the demonic energy by destroying the black heart.

In fact, Aiden’s influence played a big role. If the standard was ambiguous, a single word from the hero could greatly tilt it.

Many people stopped by Aiden’s mansion built in the Imperial Palace.

Unfortunately, they were unable to meet Aiden.

Because the hero never stayed in the center even after becoming a saint.

He continued to roam the frontier and accomplished feats such as liberating farms and eradicating demonic religions.

Time passed so quickly.

It was a cold winter a year later.

The howl of the beast permeated the empire through the cool cold wave.

War clouds hovered over the north.
