Chapter 482

The feeling of the pentarect shaking in the arms of

the earth running across the sea (5) .

The existence of an apostle staring at Lennok crookedly right in front of his eyes.

Eyes gathered from all over the place, noticing the sudden uproar.

Sensing the presence of Pio and Rapford shaking as if they would move at any moment, Lennok was lost in thought.

‘It’s twisted.’

It is self-evident that no matter how you deal with it, it is worse than not being caught.

Lennok or the other watchers would have to put in no small effort to get things back on track.

However, instead of regretting it or dwelling on it for a long time, Lennok began to think about how to use the remaining time.

To be precise, about whether to take a gamble on the pentarect, which is now fluctuating in Lennok’s arms.

‘Artifact is not omnipotent. I know that very well... ... .’

Even in this world of magic and mystery, artifacts are, after all, just tools.

No matter how powerful an item or relic-level artifact is, it is an object designed with a specific purpose or direction.

Although it may be able to show outstanding efficiency on the purpose and situation suitable for the design direction.

It is practically impossible to flexibly deal with complex twisted situations like now.

But even though he thought Lennok was clearly aware of it, the reason he was troubled at this fleeting moment was because he remembered how this object had helped him the first time he used it.

It’s not the way to turn into a powerful artifact and press down on the surroundings.

Was the transformation of the pentarect, which was transformed into a life support device at that moment and held in Lennok’s hand, really a variable that was just a coincidence?

Since it was simply transformed to cover up the moment, Pentrect’s ability was useful in a very indirect way.

For Lennok had taken to heart the fact that it might not have been mere coincidence or luck.

Above all, he knew very well that Lennok himself was far from the word luck.

“Apostle Zaif? What are you doing there now?”

“Come back to the stage quickly. Isn’t Archbishop Nydri waiting for you?”

The turmoil had gradually spread to the podium, and the deputies who were seated on chairs began to look around.

Among them, some of the agents who urge the apostle called Jaif with somewhat arrogant behavior.

Not only do they speak frankly to the apostles, but they are skilled people who seem to be at least level 7.

Perhaps they had the status of a strong man representing each branch of the church.

Even though the bishop wearing an eyepatch and a fat priest, who had a particularly strong presence among the agents, urged him on, Zaif did not look back.

It must be because he feels an inexplicable sense of deja vu from Lennok.

There was no time to think long.

“... ... good.”

The answer that flowed from the end of the hood was not directed at the apostle in front of him.

As Lennok’s hand slowly moved inside the priest’s robe, he grabbed the shaking pentarect.

At the same time as imbuing the artifact with magic, the other hand secretly sent a signal to Pio.

It was because if Penterect’s ability produced results beyond failure, he had to immediately draw attention and escape from this place through Pio’s mutation ability.

Rather than simply relying entirely on the ability of the pentarect, make a sure alternative and throw the gamble first before that.

Thinking so, Lennok swallowed his saliva and before he could even check the transformed pentarect.

Zaif suddenly grabbed the front of Lennok’s priest’s robe.

“What are you hiding?”

slap!!

The reaction was delayed because the battle was not expected.

The transformation of the pentarect, which even Lennok had not properly identified, came into the two people’s field of vision almost at the same time.

Both Jaif and Lennok shut up.

“... ... This?”

A nameplate engraved with the church’s pattern.

It is just a faded name tag that has no strength and is now rusted out.

At the end of the nameplate, in faintly recognizable letters, ‘Martinez’ is written.

Lennok was slightly troubled at the appearance of the pentarect, which turned into a more ordinary object than he thought, but Jaif’s reaction was completely different.

“... ... .”

The figure of an apostle staring at the nameplate with both eyes wide open as if he had seen something he couldn’t see right now.

Looking back and forth between Lennok and the nameplate in disbelief, his gaze jumps out in all directions as if in extreme confusion.

“Zaif!!”

“... ... I will go.”

It didn’t take long to come to an end.

Zaif tossed a small ticket at Lennok with a faintly trembling hand and turned around.

Lennok stared at Zaif’s back while holding it.

The attitude he had been questioning Lennok a moment ago seemed strangely free from any lingering attachments.

Although the agents shout something at him as he strides through the crowd and climbs onto the podium.

Zaif was mistaken and was passing it off by saying that he must be an outsider.

Worship started under the leadership of Archbishop Nydri.

Lennok quietly overheard the conversation going on quietly on the podium, then winked at Pio and Lappard, who were silently watching him nearby.

After quietly leaving the square, the three quickly walked down the street and opened their mouths.

“What happened?”

“I thought it was almost always four months, but suddenly things got weird.”

“What did you do to deceive the apostle of the church?”

“Well... ... .”

Saying that, Lennok glanced down at the church’s nameplate with the name Martinez on it.

The way the Penterect changed its appearance the other day and helped Lennok, considering what happened along the way, I don’t think it was a coincidence.

It must be said that the key that suddenly made this situation go away or made it through is now in this nameplate and name.

“Martinez... ... .”

Someone from the Order who was named Martinez.

Contrary to Pio’s tense words, the spells from his hands are applied to the incarnation’s body and change its appearance as it is.

As the light faded within the incarnated body, its appearance and physique naturally changed to Evan’s.

The figure of Evan standing up with an expressionless face and looking at the surroundings while standing on his feet.

Even Pio hesitated with a nervous expression.

“Did it pass... ... ?”

“The incarnation’s magical power sensitivity and mana acceptance ability are very excellent. There was a low chance that you would rebel against your spell.”

Lapard also looked at his incarnation with a curious look while saying that.

“However, I don’t feel the rapid decline in physical condition like when Pio changed... ... . Wasn’t the mutation data itself wrong?”

“Well, I don’t know either. Rather, I’m not human, so maybe I’m less sensitive to that part.”

“That’s a reasonable inference. It ended much sooner than expected, so you go out into the streets with this incarnation-”

At that moment, the incarnation that was standing there with an expressionless face suddenly vomited blood.

“Cool!!”

Even though I covered my mouth with one hand, red blood leaked out from between my fingers.

The appearance of the incarnation, which could not stop coughing, sat down on the spot and began to tremble.

Everyone opened their mouths and said nothing.

“Keheo-eok... ... .!! Big!!”

The sight of him stretching his hands over his head with his eyes wide open is truly pitiful.

If the incarnation that was fine until just now suddenly starts to vomit blood and suffer, what is the cause?

“... ... .”

Pio and Rapford look back at Lennok with shocked eyes.

I didn’t even have to tell you what the emotion was from that gaze.

Lennok unknowingly averted his gaze from the two men staring at him.

“The mutation spell... ... . It must have been a bit of an error.”

“... ... .”

The words of Lennok muttering while looking at the mountains in the distance. But this time, no one was quick to agree with that statement.

* * *

Lennok left the incarnations disguised as Pio and Rapford Evan and left alone between the railroad tracks.

It would have been difficult if the state of the incarnation had not been stabilized by drastically reducing the magical energy contained in the incarnation.

There must be a reason why Hwashin’s condition was worse than when Pio mimicked himself, but he didn’t have much time to think about it.

Anyway, outside of the street, Evan’s appearance will be properly reflected in people’s eyes, so that alone is enough.

Thinking so, Lennok glanced at the far end of the railroad tracks.

sweetie... ... !!

At the end of a quiet railroad track where no one seemed to be present until just now.

The wind passed by and briefly covered Lennok’s vision, and in the meantime, the figure of a mature man was standing on the other side.

The apostle Jaif, who noticed Lennok’s existence on the podium and questioned him.

In the square, the same man who had dismissed Lennok and let him go had now returned to see Lennok and stood facing him.

After staring at Lennok for a while, Zaype opened his mouth.

“You managed to evade the surveillance. There must have been agents keeping an eye on them.”

“Isn’t that what you asked for from the beginning?”

As Lennok said, he shook the small ticket he was holding.

The ticket that Jaif held as if he was throwing it right before he let go of Lennok.

It was an old ticket used only on the tracks of this long-disappeared railway station.

It is an obvious fact that the apostle in front of me wanted to set this place as a meeting place.

All that is left is to resolve the small doubts inside him.

As he took the nameplate out of his arms, he could feel Jaif startled.

“Looking at this, there must have been something you wanted to ask me.”

“... ... Martinez of the Order. I know the name.”

Zaif, who had been silent, spoke with difficulty.

“A missionary dispatched to the great city of Balkan. Rumors of the successful Advent of the Apostles had spread even to the original.”

“I know you well.”

“I heard you’re dead, so how do you keep that nameplate in your hand?”

Jaif’s eyes seemed to tremble slightly.

“Or did Martinez really succeed in becoming an apostle without going through the selection ceremony?”

“... ... .”

Lennox took a light breath before answering.

Considering what he had to say from now on, he too had to prepare in his own way.

Why did Penterect change into the shape of this nameplate?

The reason why Jaif was so shaken that he couldn’t hide it when he saw this nameplate.

The answer to all questions lies with Lennok. All that remains is to take action.

Lennok thought so, and without hesitation brought out the one thing he had shrunk in his arms in front of Jaif.

Wow... ... !!

What fell with a heavy roar was a gigantic carapace shield that exceeded Lennok’s height.

Indeed, it is one of the weapons that Lennok favors in battle due to its toughness and heavy weight, but that is not the point.

This carapace shield is the remnant left by none other than Walter Martinez after he turned into an apostle.

And there’s no way that fellow apostle Jaif wouldn’t recognize this.

“This... ... !!”

“My name is Evan Martinez.”

Lennok smiled as he watched Jaif step forward with his eyes wide open.

A step that puts a wedge into Jaif’s youthful doubts.

One word was enough to complete this whole play.

“As a fellow apostle, I have come to tell you the secret that the archbishop is hiding.”
