59 Lesson 46: Malice Surely Saves People

Soarena looked at a bunch of paperwork by herself in an office on the Southern State Capitol and St. Amritante's Archdiocese.

They were all evidence of fraud that the old ladies of the Southern State Congress were engulfing, but the amount of information exceeded expectations because of a complex and hardened administrative system.

Soarena is so unfamiliar with the text because of her village daughter's origins.

Load the contents of the documents with obnoxious gestures and speeds, like a child who is just beginning to receive primary education.

There are people who suffer behind only this number of documents.

If we don't check the contents and correct the fraud as soon as possible, even in one letter...

There's just a rush, which slows down the space for extra work.

... Unexpectedly, the office door was knocked and a holy knight came into the room.

"Dear Virgin Soarena! The private property investigation of the deceased Cardinals has come to a close."

It was Senior Saint Fjord-Weistark, the leader of the Saint Knights of the Southern States, who showed up.

The crossing of that technique, which is old but still undamaged, has roared the southern states all over the Qualia, so much so that no priest, of course, even the people of the city well, knows its name.

Fjord bows deeply in his thankful work, while his main cause is the battle called the Holy Knight.

In response to him, Soarena nods quietly and throws the question with a somewhat full voice of anticipation.

"How much was it?

"It's a word of serenity...... I didn't know so many assets were hidden anymore. Double books, detoured contributions, bribes. I only mourn our infirmity if we keep it from these people and give it to the poor properly."

From day to day, a calm settling, roughly unexplained fjord has made no sense of discomfort concealed.

No - that's why it's done to this extent.

In fact, the Holy Knights, who have been temporarily summoned to clean up this situation, are in the midst of too much anger and much screaming over their place of business.

"God wants us to be people's lights with a strong will. Let's do what we can. - What about the human resources you were asking for?

"We provide circulars, including the priests of each town and village, but when they suddenly react because they also have their own circumstances, they don't respond well."

It is not easy to rebuild an administrative system with holes.

It's not just that you should give up the right person, but that's where certain people and abilities are required.

That said, the bishops and cardinals killed by Elakino are upstream of the Southern state administration.

Since most of the practice is handled by the general clergy, so far it is a routine that is no different from ordinary times for the general public, and it manages to maintain a balance.

It is clear, however, that that tranquillity will also collapse in a few days.

By then we have to repair all the streams that have managed to get into this complex quirk, to the point where we can see them.

"Really... you can give me my name, so please continue to persuade me. We need people now anyway."

Come on, I should not even give you permission to use the name Virgin.

Knowing how much this means and how prepared Soarena is, Fjord trembles.

But as he turns a similar reverence to the Virgin in awe, he recalls that Fjord must be confirmed as head of the Order of the Saints of the Southern States.

"But can we stop reporting to the center?

A few seconds of silence. Slightly Soarena, the Virgin of Hua Funeral, replied.

"Yes...... no problem there. Confusion would be even worse if extra lay were put in the center now. It doesn't mean hiding it forever. Sooner or later look at the time."

"Hmm, if that's what you say Soarena..."

Obviously misled.

Fjord is not just an old man in his hectic retirement.

He is a senior saint who can blast his name all over the continent, and a proud hero of Qualia who has destroyed the most evil except the Virgin.

That insight is no longer sublimated to the realm of prediction and reading minds, and thus discerns some sort of hindsight and hiding that Soarena holds.

There's something. There's a reason Soarena has to hide this serious incident in the center.

Focus your consciousness so that you do not understand and scrutinize the information you have obtained so far.

There must be something... you must be missing something uncomfortable.

In my sumptuous consciousness, I saw something behind Fjord's brain -.

Bodies of bishops scattered on one side of the perimeter. Soarena and girl nestled in a sea of blood.

The moment Fjord unleashed the Sacred Knight's Sword with his men and was slashed into a girl in his service...

"Hey. Sounds like some kind of trouble! Aren't you free to talk to me for a long time now?

"-! That was..."

"Yahoo, Knights Commander. Didn't you get more eye areas? Are you asleep?

Soon the girl who shows up talks to Fjord in peace.

My vision blurs and my head squeaks. Girl and girl overlap, red eyes like blood and their mouth creeping and laughing.

My headache is getting worse and I'm about to pull that wedge out one more step.

"Colour, and excuse me... my head"

A little more - a little more.

Thus the Saint Knight Fjord recalls that the girl in front of him is Elakino the Sipping Witch.

"Well... is it about to expire? It's the only way. I don't believe in Ella Kino."

Elakino's "Brainwashing" Judgment

Determination: Confirmed Success

―――――――――――――――――

I greeted the spirited holy followers.

"Hmmm... what? Oh, Lord Elakino. You wanted it. Excuse me for this. A little dazzled."

Earlier headaches pull off like lies, and consciousness crosses as soon as possible.

and at the same time a side of the gentleman presents himself with regret that the thought of righteousness still fills his body and has been disrespectful to the girl in front of him.

"Has Ella Kino mellowed into her cuteness? Don't push yourself too hard to work, Knights Leader."

"Ha ha! I don't have enough refinement to worry and care about women, either. But Lord Elakino. Sometimes people can't, but they can't."

"Helping people, you know?

"Uhm! Makoto is right! As Lord Elakino knows, Qualia is now about to get into an unprecedented mess. And in this difficult time, it is the work of the Holy Knight to become the sword of God and the shield of the people. Where will you have time to sleep?"

"Ha ha! Hmm, what a working human being! When you become president of a company, you're in danger of becoming absolutely black. Zo. ♪ Well, please work as you wish for such a Knights Commander. ♪

Were you pressured by straightforward thoughts, or were you made easy by a strong will that did not spare us?

Elakino took out a bunch of paper from nowhere with a slight bitter laugh.

"Ko, this is haha!

Having received the paperwork, Fjord unexpectedly opens his eyes to amazement.

Because that was information about the stash of the bishops' property, which could never be left as a form...

"Lord Elakino... where is this?

"Investigation skills are important, whoa, knight captain. Is that where it matters now? What have you done with Sole? What are we gonna do with the sole, not the one? Right?"

"Huh! This is rude. You're absolutely right. Good teachings and thanks, Lord Elakino."

A fjord that switches thoughts in an instant to that word.

The number of hidden properties found in the back books so far is enormous.

I thought the stash would make it difficult to navigate the investigation because it's unknown. When this can be recovered early, it's also possible to let the worst funds say something to rebuild the turmoil in Southern states.

Having found hope in confusion convergence, Fjord becomes somewhat more pale and nostalgic about the paperwork earlier.

"Then Master Soarena. Lord Elakino. I will be scrutinizing this document as soon as possible. We're running out of time right now."

"Yes, thank you very much"

"Cancer!

Fjord bows deeply and courteously, just as he did when he came into the room.

His leg stops when he tries to leave the room with his heel back.

"I... sincerely thank you both for standing up for this country. You never missed the sickness that led you to this country."

Elakino well understood that the word was genuine, taking away the other person's thoughts by "brainwashing".

And the Soarena, which became the faction of Erakino entirely by "sipping", also understood the matter well.

"Let's make it a good country. Then at this."

Elakino has a nico and an uncontrolled smile, and Soarena has an indescribably tenacious grin.

I nodded at the words of the Holy Knight Fjord.

………

……

…

"Hey, it feels kind of good if you do something good! A new feeling!

Twirling, Elakino laughs as she dances through the office.

The grin belongs to a virgin girl, and the uncontrolled smile doesn't make her feel like she's the witch who took many lives.

Soarena just handles the paperwork.

Like applying a lid to a reality you don't even want to see, like lying about your own mind.

"If things continue to go well, the bad guys in this area are going to be gone. Hey, Soarena!

"If you keep going, if you keep going..."

Yes, we just have to keep going.

Strangely enough, Elakino looked like he really wanted to make this country better.

At least I'm sure I'm starting to get attached to acquaintances like this country and the earlier Knights Commander.

Soarenas don't know why witches who don't care about people's lives have such feelings.

But in case Elakino can have a true attachment to this country and its people, won't it all change?

I'm sure you'll never have an unfortunate person like yourself again?

Such a pathetic forecast of the future comes to mind.

If you keep going. If you keep going......

Soarena squeals just that small.

"If you keep up the good work..."

The word was also denied by another visitor's words.

"Dear Fenne..."

It was one woman there.

How tall is he? I'm sure it's higher than the Soarena, but it's shrinking my body like it's frightened, and it looks rather small.

It is also wrapped in a holy coat to hide its skin, and there is even a kind of creepy feeling that it is hiding its face in a pure white veil.

The voice, on the other hand, is like a goddess song.

It's as if the voices alone make you feel the indoors have been purified, so much so that even the Soarena, the same being, accidentally blushes its cheeks.

The woman's name is Fenne...

One of the seven great saints of the Idraggia continent of salvation.

"The Virgin on the Face" Fenne-Carmale.

"Oh! You look down on your face! Nice to meet you! Should I get a scratch already?

Elakino relaxes to Fenne, who was in the room at some point about what technique he used.

When Fenne turned silently to the words, she laid her hands on Vale at an angle that seemed invisible to Soarena and confirmed the elaquino directly with one eye.

"Nice to meet you, Elakino. I didn't know we were going down the Soarena.... you did a good job"

"Ma'am! It took a lot of time, though. But thanks to Erakino, we're one step closer to achieving her ambitions! Isn't that amazing?"

"Yeah, I'm not interested."

- Terrible discomfort struck the Soarena.

She doesn't know the relationship between Elakino and Fenne.

Qualia has a culture of great discretion from state to state but thus terribly dislikes the intervention of other states.

Therefore, no information has been received as to what kind of battle Elakino was waged by the Virgin on the Face, a different state from the Northern States.

The information hasn't come in, so we don't know what happened there.

"What's going on? Soarena."

Fenne asks quietly if you have noticed the anomaly in the Soarena.

The voice is as beautiful as ever and even makes you feel as majestic as court music.

Shaking off that voice somewhere inhuman that echoes in the back of his brain, Soarena asked in a detour.

"Well, if you'll excuse me, did Fenne do something from Elakino?

"" Nothing ""

Elakino and Fenne responded exactly the same at the same time.

Soarena shudders unexpectedly at the creepy unanimity.

"You say weird things, Soarena. You thought I was getting some sort of brainwashing from her? Oh, or did you think I was up to something? If so, it's a misunderstanding. I always put people first. I can't help but think about this situation. Once you've defeated, you're no match for Elakino."

My eyes shoot through the Soarena from under the vale.

They seemed to see everything through even though I didn't put it into words, and I accidentally get stuck in words.

"Oh, here's what you think, Soarena." The Virgin on the Face did some sort of covenant with the Sipping Witch, lurking under the guise of a deep hand, "he said. That's a very, very bad idea. Neither does God affirm such horrible thoughts. You should get rid of that idea now, Soarena."

As if it had been prepared beforehand, as if you were properly arranging what you just came up with. Fenne denied Soarena's words to rap.

The Virgin's abilities are all kept secret in principle, and her mouth is strictly forbidden, even if she learns in some way.

It's the same even between the same Virgin, and Soarena only cares what the Virgin other than herself is capable of.

... and remembered rumours that the miracle held by The Face Down Virgin is something that discerns the truth.

"Come on Soarena, let's save people. For that reason, the Virgin was created by God."

Fenne speaks with a beautiful voice.

It's the sound of being sucked in and about to drown.

For some reason, the Soarena turns its gaze to Elakino.

The Sipping Witch just laughs with joy.

"Everyone should be saved. Yes, all of us."

The opinions of those on this occasion are perfectly in agreement.

But the answer to whether the word was true existed only in each heart.

Southern states have left the Holy King Qualia.

Thereafter, we will treat it as an independent city until the [National Declaration] event occurs.
