CH 59

: Adviser Sable (4)

On the way to the statue, there were quite a few guards guarding the hallway.

'I'll have to stun three of them.'

There were places where I couldn't hide to avoid them all.

Jamie sent a psychic wave at the bored soldier, just like when he first entered.

Then the soldier nodded and fell asleep without realizing it.

Jamie slowly passed by, spreading mana to detect the presence. A total of three popular chucks were felt.

Still, there was an empty space above, so it was easy to pass.

Jamie, who had penetrated the depths of the church in an instant, opened the hallway window and escaped.

According to the memory of a soldier named Millbuck, it was the Archbishop's classroom right next to it.

Currently this place is empty.

I searched to see if there was any detection magic, but nothing was caught.

'It's easy, it's easy.'

Jamie entered the Archbishop's classroom and looked around the room.

A coat of arms symbolizing the Pyro Church was hung on the wide wall.

Other than that, there was nothing else.

Rather, there was nothing so much that the room looked empty.

Only a few books on doctrine are on the bookshelf. The desk is also neatly organized, so I wonder if this place is really used.

'You seem to be a frugal person.'

I looked all over the desk drawer and room, but I couldn't find any important documents.

I don't know if it is stored separately or if it is burned immediately after checking.

Without looking any further, he approached the door and looked at the signs outside. There is no sound.

I carefully opened the door, looked to the left and right, and walked without the sound of footsteps.

'There.'

And in my sight, I saw a door leading to the place where the statue of the goddess was.

A soldier stood guarding the door, and unlike the other soldiers, he stood guarding the door with no sign of sleepiness.

'No problem.'

It was Jamie's mental magic that destroyed even the mind of a bishop.

It wasn't even a matter of neutralizing a single soldier with little immunity to magic.

That was then.

Jamie grabbed his hand as he flew to his head.

"Who are you?"

Jamie's eyes turned purple.

I don't know who it was, but it suddenly appeared.

Lately, this has been happening a lot and I've been really annoyed.

Gathering mana in Noah's hands, he looked back.

And Jamie had no choice but to let go of his hand, with his mouth wide open.

"I tried to surprise you, but it's not easy against you."

Ricky?!

Shh.

Ricky covered his mouth as Jamie raised his voice involuntarily.

"It's difficult if someone else finds out."

Saying so, Ricky took Jamie into the Archbishop's classroom.

Jamie asked urgently as he entered the quiet place.

"How are you?"

what?

"How did you appear from behind me without a sound!"

Jamie was very surprised.

No matter how much Ricky became an apostle of the Pyro, he didn't have the skills to hide his presence from himself.

Seeing Jamie like that, Ricky responded with a slightly disappointed face.

what. I thought you'd be happy, aren't you?

"You shouldn't be happy. So how did you do it?"

"This child After all, this is how you are."

Ricky shook his head as if tired.

He told Jamie how he appeared from behind without a trace.

"It is said that this is the domain of the Goddess. I haven't fully developed the power of the apostle yet, but should I still say that it is the incarnation of a Goddess that is somewhat perfected within the realm?

So, within the school, Ricky was closer to omnipotence.

To put it more simply, it could be seen that the church and the water become one. So, even if Jamie sneaked in, Ricky could see it.

It was impossible for Jamie to press Ricky down here alone.

'That's why being an apostle is such a pain.'

It was so old that I forgot.

No, I knew the dangers of the apostles, but it would be more accurate to say that they became dull because I was with Ricky all the way to Apton.

In addition, as he said, the power of the apostles did not fully develop to this extent.

If Ricky grows up and fully awakens as an apostle, it can be said that he is invincible within the realm.

"The power of the apostle has grown so strong that the power of the undead is buried."

"It was very blurry when I came in here. But when I went out, I came back a little bit."

Riki was an apostle of the gods, and the one and only being of the undead. However, in the realm of the gods, it was difficult to develop the power of the undead.

"Anna?"

"Anna is resting."

Even sages are not as strong as apostles, but in the realm of God.

However, Anna had not yet awakened the power of an adult, so she was still an ordinary blind girl.

"Anyway, I'm so glad it's you. If it were anyone else, I really wanted to kill him."

Ricky knew that the words were sincere, so he laughed out loud.

"That sounds awful."

"So what's going on?"

"What's going on? You don't even care about saying anything that makes you sad.

Why. Should I even squeeze it?"

"I don't even want it. I just wanted to surprise you a little bit, and the Goddess told me to go."

" What?

"The Goddess told you to go."

There was no reason to go to the Goddess Statue.

* * *

"Is that word true?"

"You have no reason to lie."

That too.

It is no exaggeration to say that Jamie and Ricky are colleagues in the same boat.

They share secrets with each other, and above all, Jamie is holding Ricky's leash, so it's impossible to betray.

"From now on, I will convey the will of the Goddess."

slumbers !"

As soon as Ricky finished speaking, a dazzling light began to cover his body.

Jamie covered her face with her arms in the light that made it hard to open her eyes without even drying it.

As the light faded a little, I looked at Ricky carefully.

The face is covered with white light and cannot be seen.

Behind her back, skeins of light fluttered like wings.

The author is not Ricky.

Something much higher than that.

If it's higher than the apostles of God, wouldn't there be one thing to say?

"Are you a Pyro?"

Jamie questioned the being who had taken Ricky's body with a little bit of hostility.

The existence opened its eyes.

Only a pink eye glow emanated from the lighted face.

'It's different than back then.'

At that time, she was in a hurry, so she couldn't take a special appearance.

However, the goddess, who had already conveyed her will to the apostle, summoned a part of her without hesitation.

Jamie swallowed dry saliva. There was nothing she could do last time, but now that she has summoned some, no matter how dangerous she is.

Pyro opened his mouth.

- The disgusting Magi is waking up.

- Dark forest. That's where it all starts.

- It must be stopped before it spreads.

-Otherwise, my realm here will not survive.

- Go to the dark forest.

- There will be no damage.

- Please, hippo.

Jamie frowned at the quick-firing words.

Wait a minute. what now... ."

But Jamie couldn't keep up.

Because the goddess who appeared in Riki's body disappeared without a trace.

"What, what?"

It's very frustrating.

If that's the case, then what did you mean to make a fuss?

"Ugh."

Ricky came to his senses and staggered and grabbed his head.

Jamie managed to straighten him up as he supported him.

"Are you okay?"

"A little headache."

Since we have God in our body, no matter how much an apostle, an overload is bound to come.

Jamie waited for Ricky to get better.

"Uh-huh, it's a little bit better now."

"What is it? Where is the thing that just says something and disappears?"

"I will apologize for that. The goddess is not in a good condition right now."

"What else do you mean?"

"A month ago. When you just made me into an undead, the goddess descended on my body."

It did.

"It must have been a huge burden."

The Pyro was forcibly incarnated in the body of Jamie, who had not yet awakened as an Apostle outside the realm.

As a result, he was in a state of disobeying the laws set by the 12 gods and carrying a huge burden.

"So this time, he conveyed his will to me, and even though he appeared without breaking the law, the burden of that time remained and he was only able to stay for a short time."

I never thought that the present at that time would be so burdensome.

How would you know such a thing as the Law of the 12 Gods?

"Anyway, what is the request?"

The Pyro will not like himself.

Because he declared that he was the successor of Diablo Volfir. Still, I've been asking for it.

If it had been a command, I wouldn't have listened to it, but it was difficult to ignore because the goddess came in with a bow.

"Why is your goddess asking me, not you or any other believer?"

"Because it's something only you can do."

"Explain exactly."

"The Goddess said, if you are his successor, you will know."

His successor means Diablo Volfir.

Jamie frowned.

"Anything more to say?"

"I just lost connection with me as a manifestation. You should probably rest for a while."

Damn it. Where is the thing that just says what you want to say and disappears!"

Jamie grunted, looked at Ricky and sighed.

It's impossible to say anything to him.

"I'll find out soon."

"You want to go?"

"Soon, I have to go and prepare."

A group of archbishops went to the Marquis.

It will be difficult for him to fall into that spot too, so he has to go back and wait.

"Then see you soon."

okay. See you later.

Jamie said goodbye and went out the window.

Ricky let out a small sigh as he looked away from him.

"Goddess. Will my friend be okay?"

Ricky prayed to the deaf goddess.

* * *

Jamie landed quietly in an empty place and returned to the mansion as if nothing had happened.

The archbishop has not yet arrived.

'I need to breathe a little.'

Pyro's words echoed in his mind.

Go to the dark forest.

Where the hell is that dark forest?

Also, what are you going to find out?

First of all, it is urgent to find out where the dark forest is.

There are places where you can just guess.

A great forest in northern Apton. I can't remember the exact location, but I've heard it's dangerous enough to be banned.

'If it's a large forest, it's a bit of a stretch to call it a forest.'

Jamie looked to the side as she sighed.

"Are you secretly observing?"

"I had no intention of secretly watching, but it was just a habit. Sorry.

Sable, who had been standing quietly nearby, approached with a puzzled face.

"I'm not sorry."

"But where are you going?"

"I took a little walk."

"Aha- that's right."

Sable smiles with a smile.

He didn't seem to believe much.

Jamie coughed for no reason and asked the other way around.

"Then why is your assistant here?"

"I have a special guest coming today. I was preparing to meet you."

"Who is coming?"

"This is Archbishop Sephira, who is in charge of the Apton branch of the Pyro Church."

"Wow. A great person is coming."

Jamie knew, but pretended not to know.

Sable approached him and asked.

"Is this your first time seeing a bishop-level priest?"

no. I've seen it a few times."

Sable thought he was a little worried about Jamie's words, but he was startled and apologised.

Ah! I made a big mistake. I'm really sorry.

"What mistake?"

"I forgot what happened at Highs."

Jamie smirked at the absurd remark.

It's okay. Because my father did a good job."

"I was a little surprised when I heard about it too. Anyway, I had a lot of work to do, so I forgot. I apologize again. Sorry.

Jamie waved her hand at the apology that was too much of a burden.

"Because it's okay. Then I'll go in first.

Okay. Rest in peace."

As Sable turned around with a smile, Beiryl suddenly came to mind.

Jamie turned around and called him back.

"By the way, aide. Where have you been, Sir Onyx?"

"Why are you asking that?"

"Looking at it, it seems that something bad has happened to the Marquis, but Sir Onyx, who is the most powerful force, could not be seen so I asked.

"This is true. We couldn't make it, so the young master made me worry. Do not worry. There will be nothing special until the day you die. And Lord Onyx, I don't know. They often disappear alone."

Aha. Okay.

Jamie gave a brief greeting and was about to go back to the mansion, but Sable opened his mouth.

"If you are interested in him, I recommend not doing it."

Jamie turned to look at him at the playful voice.

"Why?"

"I can't tell you the exact reason, but it's all for the sake of the master."

" ."

"Please rest in peace."

Sable just smiled.

Jamie was about to turn around again when Sabble's voice came on.

Oh yeah. And even if you go out, don't go to 'Mirinae Forest'."

This time it was a playful voice.

Jamie sighed and went into the mansion.

Left alone, Sable smiled and muttered.

"It's a really dangerous place."
