Chapter 144. Holy water is the best for cleaning
the undead.
Helmin Melnia, the owner of Ernesia Magic Tower, asked while checking the final report of the undead incident.
Of course, it was the wizards who were most obsessed with the investigation of the undead outbreak.
As a person who pursues the same magic, the evil deeds of the witch wizards are so unpleasant that it is difficult to speak.
They have an obligation to stand before anyone else to stop their evil deeds and pass judgment.
Not only here in the Mage Tower, but also most wizards in Mage Towers belonging to other countries have these thoughts.
That's why they are frantic to chase after the black magician.
However, the results of the survey are very disappointing.
The culprit in this case is already dead.
I checked the body again just in case, but it only confirmed that the warlock was right.
“...It's embarrassing, but we couldn't figure out who was doing it.”
As if he had no face in raising his head sincerely, the old wizard Kedil was at a loss as to what to do.
He is also one of the most skilled wizards in the Mage Tower.
His power and knowledge, which reached the end of the 7th class, are at a level that is highly regarded here as well.
At least the only one who can match him is the same 7th class Fei An.
But even Kedil couldn't lift his head from the man in front of him.
The owner of the Ernesia Magic Tower.
He is a rare genius who achieved an 8th class master at the age of only 30 years old.
He is relatively young compared to other Mage Masters, but possesses knowledge and skills that are never outdone, and is an object of admiration among mages.
He is the one who raised them, who were sluggish being pushed by other countries' magic towers just 10 years ago without any achievements.
Now he was restless to disappoint him.
“I have no intention of blaming you, so rest assured.”
Helmin smiled kindly and comforted the old man in front of him.
“I have no face.”
“You do not need to worry about it. Anyway, the black magician is dead. Even though we couldn't punish him with our own hands, he must have paid the price.”
The result of an autopsy on the witch's body.
It was desperately conveyed how much pain he struggled until the moment he died.
“If there's one thing that's a waste.”
He said, “Haa.... I regret it with a sigh.
“If it were me, I would have made him repent over and over again, hundreds of times, by slowly annihilating him, starting with the fingertips.”
“You're still adamant about warlocks.”
“of course. They are the great blot of the world. Of course, you can't make them pay for their sins with light pain, can they?”
They say terrible things with a smile on their faces.
It is a well-known fact that the mage lord is particularly strict when it comes to black magicians, and harbors a strong hostility to the point of being brutal.
It's just a pity that I couldn't directly punish him.
At this time, even Kedil had to shudder at the wrath of the mage master.
“The current investigation is wondering if there are any clues to find out the whereabouts of other black magicians. And... it's just an investigation to find out who killed him.”
Among some feisty wizards,
“What kind of guy dared to steal that orphan wizard instead of us!!”
It was difficult to act like that while turning on the light in the eyes and looking for it.
“I beg you again. You have to find it carefully to the end. It is difficult to forget that.”
To find the one who punished the evil wicked to the end.
However, it is difficult to show hostility.
More than anything.
‘According to the report, the warlock's strength must have been unusual...
Even when the first report about the battle with the warlock came in, Helmin had to consider whether he should step up.
However, while he disappeared for a while, he was punished by someone.
‘If I go against his heart, it'll be a headache.'
There is no need to be hostile to those who do not need to be turned into enemies.
For the sake of the future, it would be better to establish a minimum connection point.
So he began to think little by little about how to solidify the will of friendship without provoking Arel as much as possible.
On the other hand, there were those who expressed their dissatisfaction outright.
“Goyan! Like heretics!!”
A man in a white robe exploded in anger and threw the water bottle in his hand.
A clear liquid spilled from a broken water bottle that hit the floor, soaking the carpet.
“How dare you counterfeit God’s grace with something like this!! It can't be!!”
He openly showed his anger.
Feljin, one of the highest priests influencing the politics of the Holy Kingdom, was still angry as if he was not relieved.
It seems that he doesn't like the existence of artificial holy water as he has more devout faith than anyone else.
“How can Nelvania-sama stay still!”
As if he didn't understand, he argued with her, who remained silent even in this situation.
A woman in white clothes and hair sitting on a throne that only the emperor of the Holy Land could sit on.
Saint Nelvenia.
She just calmly looked at the noisy high priest, and then quietly said a word.
“So what are you going to do?”
“This is a challenge to our holy kingdom. It is not a matter of standing still.”
“Then are you saying to condemn the kingdom of Ernesia?”
She shook her head as if it were absurd.
“Are we to condemn their actions for saving the people by reducing the damage to the undead?”
When I asked again, he kept his mouth shut.
No matter how impatient the highest priest, there was no way he wouldn't understand how reckless his actions were.
“That... But holy water is a miracle that you can bestow.
That...
“Didn’t I ever say with my own mouth that only I can make holy water?”
K 99
“Can't you find any records?
If you don't believe me, look it up.”
I don't have anything to say when I react like that.
Are you saying that the holy woman, not anyone else, should act meanly with the patent right of the holy water?
If that happens, it will be she, not anyone else, who gets the public's laugh.
The important thing is how generous you can be.
“Anyway, the efficacy of artificial holy water is said to be incomparable to holy water. Wouldn't it have been better?
There is nothing to be desired if more people can be saved.”
“...that's the only position we have to clarify.”
The saintess announced at this meeting that she would no longer raise the issue of artificial holy water.
“So stop doing anything stupid. I know your faith is deep, but that is not right.”
We already know that the highest priest is trying to negotiate something with Ernesia Mage Tower.
It's nothing short of frivolous.
If they do not do so, it may be an act that will damage their name.
That's why she ordered me to get out of here as soon as possible.
All right.”
The highest priest seemed displeased with the wrinkles on his forehead, but he obediently followed the saintess' intention.
It has been 5 years since the great emperor of the Holy Kingdom passed away.
Following in his footsteps, the one holding the actual power of the Holy Kingdom is none other than the Saint.
To go against her is to go against the god they believe in.
“Sooner or later, I will tell the other priests myself.”
She had no intention of touching the current Arell Ernesia.
Let's make that clear.
In the end, even the highest priest had to step back without saying anything.
