Duke, Please Repent! chapter 212

40. The Duke and the Disappearance Case (17)

I underestimated it too much.

I thought it was general waste that couldn't be recycled, but it was a designated waste that was extremely harmful.

'How can you talk like that when Serpence is right in front of you?'

deserves to be angry I'm angry, it's normal

all.

But Serpence just smiled bitterly.

As for the image of the external fence, half of it is probably the expression drawn out by acting. But even that is sad.

When I frowned, he patted me on the shoulder a couple of times and then withdrew his hand.

This answer is a repellent fence... .

- Puck!

With a blunt hitting sound, nonsense

The chattering guy rolled on the floor.

It wasn't that I couldn't hold back my anger.

Because I kicked it at the speed of light before I could do anything.

It would be correct to say that it did not.

"Whether it be threatening with a knife to the neck of a family member, or a blade in your stomach. Whatever the circumstances, it is unforgivable to obey the will of a demon worshiper! Trying to inject them into them is blasphemy against God, and it would be an act of turning your back on the continent... Ah, Lux.

Maya! What can I do with this poor soul?

A heretic inquisitor with a halberd on his back was tied to a rope and slowly stepped on the bald man, speaking holy as if praying to a god.

A majestic voice.

It was so serious that it was hard to ask if it was a report after taking the preemptive measures to ask him what to do after he had already been kicked and knocked down.

Normally, I would have avoided him by thinking to myself, 'Isn't this a fanatic?', but today it's the exact opposite.

Can't get more refreshing than this.

I was caught up in the desire to immediately put on my shoulder and say, 'From today on, Friend 1 day, Call?'

'By the way, by the way, have you heard the general story from people?'

It would have been better not to expect him to keep his mouth shut.

Just like when they realized that Serpens had arrived, they must have been talking about selling each other out to prove their innocence.

I don't know, but if I quarantine people one by one and ask them, I wonder if a crime that wasn't there will come out.

Ah, the introduction is late. This is Luxme or not's faithful servant, Althar F, Axt.

He brought his right hand to the position of his heart and introduced himself by bowing his head slightly.

It looked very reverent.

If only it wasn't for the person under my feet.

Nice to meet you. About me .

You], you know, it's fine.

Serpense, who did not want to waste time with needlessly introducing himself, muttered moderately.

Although he did not know his intentions, Al Tar, who knew who Serpence was, gave Serpence the answer he was looking for.

"I'll ask you straight-forward. What do you plan to do with these people? Those who are definitely found to be heresy will be punished by the denomination, but other personal matters can be handed over as soon as the investigation is over. .

As he said that, he gestured his chin to the people in the back.

Knowing that their treatment will be decided by Serpence's words, they look as pitiful as possible.

built

maybe

Maybe it's just because I'm not sarcastic about their behavior, so it's only been seen in my eyes.

If it's true that I made that kind of expression on purpose, I've put a lot of effort into it.

'Because Serpens didn't even care about them.'

Normally, in this case, his gaze was directed even reflexively, but his gaze was fixed on the heretical inquisitor in front of him.

Down under the name of the god Luxmea

If you are a referee, it is natural to follow the results. For those who have been judged that there is no [Jo] in the denomination, how can I charge them separately?"

At Serpence's words, people's expressions widened.

It was an answer I didn't like, but what can I do? I don't want to associate with them anymore.

He didn't say that directly, but he kept quiet because he knew that such a meaning was implicit.

Are you really okay with that? The sect's laws are to discriminate against infidels.

It's only for the sake of it. According to the nobility law of the Empire, the disposition to be given to them is ."

It's fine, so I don't have to worry too much about it.

"If that's what you mean I understand. Then, I will do my best to keep the Duke Prasidus' high faith and honor] as quiet as possible."

what?

This is good news I never thought of.

Could it be that Serpens was humbly expecting this to happen?

"Ah I would appreciate it if you could do that."

Serpens showed a look of bewilderment for a whopping 1 second. He quickly returned to acting mode and gave a sullen smile, but he was clearly embarrassed.

That means it wasn't his goal.

'I'm guessing! It's not like I was giving up because I couldn't help it anymore... ?'

If I had judged it that way, I would have thought that I should take revenge on what happened to me.

The more I look, the more naive and stupid

there is a stone

The corruption fence in '[Master of the Holy Sword]... .'

Originally, it was said that innocence and cruelty were the difference of a single sheet of paper.

Well, that's roughly it.

'Anyway, that's great!'

That's why they say that if you put your mind to it, good luck will come.

It seems that this world is not like a beggar.

Perhaps because he knew about the monkey, the man with light blue hair in front of him with a sense of freshness was Eirich and

It may be a friendly person.

So maybe you care.

'Halberd and spear, a long weapon that feels roughly the same, isn't it?'

According to the denomination's holy law, you should not give any favors based on your personal feelings. How easy is that?

If there is a vicious cycle, there is also a function that becomes a virtuous cycle.

It is a world where we live in harmony with each other.

'okay! Let's help each other live! Cancer, not like that!'

With that in mind, the delay doesn't seem so bad either.

Justice still lives in this world.

Suddenly the whole world seemed beautiful.

Of course, the moon and stars shining in the night sky pass.

Serpens' bluish-silver hair, which became more silvery in the moonlight, glistens through the air in the twinkling winter wind.

Even Eugene's bright breath, turning his head and exhaling a sigh of relief.

until it scatters.

'If all the priests feel this way, would Lux Smea be trusted?'

Oh, this went too far.

What are you going to do tonight? If you don't have a place to stay, I can give you an empty room in the temple.

No, it's fine. I have a schedule, so I'll go back and see.

It's a lie. There is no such thing.

If that's the case, then there's nothing I can do. After this, I will visit you at the mansion to hear more details.

Altar let us go right away without grabbing him twice.

Looking at his friendly expression and voice, he could tell that he still trusted Serpence.

He left a few paladins at the scene, and headed to the temple with the rest of the paladins.

We wanted to leave a trail], so we deliberately took the night train.

Tickets for the luxury trains were not available, so they had to ride the trains only for ordinary people. Even then, the bed compartment was already gone.

Ugh, I ride spacious and expensive things every day, but riding something like this makes me feel very cramped.

Thinking of Eugenes who had consumed a lot of energy, he tore the soundproof scroll and said.

Of course, there is no table in the middle, and the seats facing each other are wide enough for two adult men to sit on their backs.

It's nice to have a partition.

Otherwise, Serpens and Eugenes would have been more frustrated by hiding their faces the whole way back.

"Isn't it even more stuffy if you take out a blanket in a small space?"

As I wrapped the blanket around my body and sat down, Serpens next to me slowly moved and pushed me toward the window.

Wow, you don't even think about taking up a seat because you have broad shoulders!

Had it not been for what happened today, I would have been sitting next to the really slender Euges, not the outwardly slender Serpens.

I think I'm enduring the discomfort, but I'll have to bear this amount myself.

"Originally, even putting together like this is all about memories.

Would you like to ride in a cheap car on the train? If it's uncomfortable, would you like to cover the serpenes with me?

No specification.

He aimed for the human hearth effect, but the hard-hearted Serpens coldly refused.

What about Eugene? If it's okay with a summer blanket, can I take it out?

If yes, thank you.

On the other hand, Eugene is cool.

Putting the blanket I had given her aside for a moment, she loosened her cramped armament.

Are you still wearing gloves?

Serpens reacted to Eugene's action of dragging and covering the duvet again with his gloved hand.

The cold wind coming in through the crack in the window made my hands shiver, but I almost passed by without thinking, but it was a bit strange to hear.

"Ahaha I got it."

Come here.

As Euges smiled awkwardly, Serpens held out his hand with a dissatisfied expression.

Looking at the palms outstretched in front of her, she smiled sincerely and brightly.

built

And he gladly put his hand on it.

Serpens carefully removed the glove and turned it over with her palm facing upwards.

What is this! You're completely bruised! Why did you just put up with this?! There's a genius wasting divine power right next to you!

I couldn't help but be terrified to see the purple bruises between the knuckles of my fingers.

Serpence seems very tired. This level will get better in a day or two.

will you? It's nothing.

She smiled fervently at my call.

A day or two would be the standard for an elf.

It was so serious that, in human terms, a week could have passed.

It's nothing more than just healing bruises. Shion is too serious, but Eugenes, it's okay to be a little brazen.

Serpens gently wrapped her hand around her, and said lamentably.

A warm healing light from his hand

It flowed out and soaked into her hands.

Is he even aware of what he referred to as 'you'?

thank you.

Looking down at Eugene's clean hands, Serpens suddenly thanked him.

It was Jin the 1 who received treatment, why is Serpens thanking me?

Were you here to help me?

In response to his answer, Euges let out a pleasant laugh.

"You two saved me first.

It was. And where are we?

"M this, no."

That's right. If there's something difficult, they're willing to help out, and if they're hurt, they treat you first without saying anything. It's like that.

...Ummm.

Serpens quickly put the glove on her palm and let go of the hand she was holding.

And I dug into my blanket that I was not going to cover.

It's because I'm terribly shy.

I was wondering what to do if I said I'm sorry, but it feels good to get a thank you.

"That is the result of my education."

I patted the strange guy on the blanket.

It was soft and fluffy thanks to the thick duvet.
