165 Lesson 35: The Pope's Fear

Your sword - what is your real name? You're pretty sure about this, too, right?

The Pope asked me to open my eyes unexpectedly. Because I never expected the name of your sword to appear on this occasion now.

I didn't know what they meant, but I guess the fact that they've turned this question to me after purposefully paying people for it makes them pretty sure of my qualities. If so, hectic denial or deception makes no sense.

It is possible that he has been exposed, but then it is necessary to clarify the ambition of the other side. If you use another expression, you have to see how the Pope moves when he finds out I'm the Great Sword Sky.

That's how I judged it and flinched my mouth.

Public "Yes, Holiness. Indeed I am your sword sky. I can't name my family after you because I've been approached."

The pope who heard that was small, but clearly frowned. Quiet.

"The man I know, the sword sky, because of his lack of power, is not the son of the sword, and he is banished from his house. The person was the same as the hero of the day who accomplished the dragon killing feat. I can't help but be afraid of that."

"............... uh, what does that mean?

Ask back without knowing what it means.

There were also questions about why the Pope knew my circumstances in the first place, but I did not ask about this. The Carnelius family, the pope's biological home, is deeply related to the Paradise family of Emma and the Azrites of Ayaka. Besides, there is also a temple of Judaism in Takashima. You must have heard it on any of its lines, because you guessed it.

"The swordsmen have a peculiar position and distinct force among the Adoastella Empire. It would not be an exaggeration to say that there is one country in one. If that swordsman is outside the island, and it is also showing its own movement outside the Empire, he cannot sit back, either as the Holy King or as a god of law".

"Even when it comes to my own movement, I've just been approached by Ishka by a swordsman..."

"It's false, and you and your swordsman may be conspiring," he says.

"- Conspiracy, did you say?

I don't know, I'm angry at my voice. I don't want you to joke about me and your swordsman conspiring.

Pope Cui must have definitely noticed my anger. But there were no signs of upset in the eyes of color, and the next spinning word was calm itself.

"As a simple fact, the blood that flows on you, the sword you wield, belongs to your swordsman. I saw one end of it in an earlier battle."

"Mm."

I buried the skeleton in my heart the other day.

Strong moves Indeed, the heart costume is the depths of a fantasy one sword stream. Plus, I just renamed myself, and it's also true that what's in the big book is your swordsman's moves.

And it was also true that I was the son of Mitsugaya and Mitsugaya. No matter how much you claim to have been allotted, from the standpoint of it, I am not too much of a swordsman - that's what the Pope would say.

You saw the convincing expression on this one, the Pope went on to say more or less.

"That you set yourself up in a country other than the Empire. Its fame strikes all over the canary, and you hear that there are plenty of people around who admire you. Some of them will be knights and nobles of this country. No, you want to kill a dragon. Your influence is comparable to that of a royal nobleman."

With that said, the Pope exhaled small.

And repeat the same words as earlier.

"You, who draw the blood of the swordsman and use the moves of the swordsman, have gained so much standing in the kingdom of Canary. I can't help but be afraid of that fact."

"... Your swordsman is using me to expand his forces outside the country. So that's what you're saying."

"Yes, the fact that you, the weak one but therefore supposed to have been banished, have been a dragon killer in just five years is the basis for that."

If we sum up the Pope's suspicions, it will be that "the mighty sword sky originally had sufficient power, and he left the island roughly to expand the forces of the mighty swordsmen outside the empire".

Needless to say once again, this suspicion is factually groundless.

Yotai, I just don't think I can help but suspect that. I don't know what to say to myself, but in just five years, those who couldn't meet with Dragon Tooth Soldiers grew up enough to fight dragons. There is still a better theory of conspiracy than that.

Hmm, and I put my arms together and think.

To that effect, there is too little assumption that I am conspiring with your swordsman, and I never thought of it myself - so I'm impressed that there is such a way of thinking. Honestly, it was the thought of a candle falling out of my eyes. A swordsman who deals with the martial arts of the gateway and "does not invade" in disputes between nations. If the swordsman wants to expand his power, he won't have any more hands.

Obscurantism, of course, from me, equals argument. But it's hard to get others to believe that. Even in that sense, the Pope's suspicions were troublesome.

When I was on the tannic side thinking that way, the girl in front of me loosened her expression.

Fatty: "I think it's an out-of-heart suspicion for you. It's only been a few moments since I met you, but there's still something to figure out. You must be someone who can jump into the fire for your loved ones. Seeing you challenged the immortal king to protect his people, I was convinced of it. You don't have the ambition to make your swordsman do you?"

But there are elements that doubt it. The Pope went on to do so.

If I'm just a dragon killer, there's no problem. There's no problem if I'm just your sword emptiness. But when those two overlap, my presence can be a spark that rocks the country and the country.

One by one "For example, it is conceivable that anyone who endangers your presence in this country will try to eliminate you on the grounds that you are a man of your swordsman. The presence or absence of a conspiracy is not important to that person. If only I had a name for you there, that's fine."

Suggestion The Pope does not care if I am truly connected to your swordsman or not, but the presence of those who use it as a pretext.

There are so many who neglect my existence. Speaking of the most recent example, Prince Azar took Claudia from me. Some aristocrats may be wary that I, the dragon killer, will be linked to the Duke of Dragnote family.

These spies claim, "That man belongs to no swordsman, no empire, and cannot be left in this country". That was possible enough.

I just figured it out, but your swordsman could use this. They deliberately divulge my identity to the Kingdom of Canaries and take away my place of return. If I move to a country other than Canary, I'll do the same thing there. You remind me by repeating it. There is no place for fantasy one-size-fits-all users to live in peace except Kigashima.

I don't think all the settlements have been made on my way home earlier. Sooner or later, the swordsmen will show some movement against me for slaying the gods. It should also have been taken into account that that would take the form of a conspiracy.

Think of it this way, the Pope is right, a human being named me becomes a spark of contention. And if the Kingdom of Canaries and the Adoastella Empire are disturbed because of me, the Holy Kingdoms adjacent to both countries can't help but be affected. There will also be a large number of followers of Law and Divinity who suffer because of the unrest.

It was also natural that the Pope, the leader of the Holy Kingdom and the Divine Church of Law, could not forbid fear of the Great Sword Sky.

I'm not sure if the Pope's words so far are warnings or advice, but let's be honest with you for giving me a point of view I didn't realize. That's what I thought and thanked the Pope.

◆ ◆ ◆

Even after your sword sky left the room, Noah didn't take a seat for a while. That gaze is directed at the chair where the sky sat until earlier.

In earlier stories, Noah did not reveal all her inner thoughts. Instead, from the whole point of view of what I put into words, it's only a fraction.

In the room where no one was present, Noah repeated an earlier passage of words directed at the sky. Including the real thing I was hiding.

"You must be someone who can jump into the fire for your loved ones. And who can turn the world around to enemies for their loved ones. Seeing you admired by a ghost girl, I was convinced of it"

When the skies returned from the Titis woods, one of the two girls we welcomed was a ghost. It is also clear to the side that the ghost girl admires the sky, and the shock that the fact has had on Noah is enormous.

The human being of your swordsman is admired by ghosts. Noah knows how unlikely that is.

As a Noah individual, I prefer the presence of the sky. But Noah, as an exchanger, felt horrible about the sky.

If you are also the head of stripping tissue, you may have to throw away small pieces to keep the big ones alive. In the future, when no god of law or holy kingdom has made that decision, if a loved one in the sky or sky enters the "small" side, the sky will dare stand up and fang "big".

And Noah can't stop it.

Because the sky kills dragons. How can we stop a man who can't even stop a dragon?

Small To avoid such things, we must not include the sky and the surrounding human beings on the side of the But now Noah doesn't know what the sky cares about or who it cares about.

So we have to make sure. What is your sword sky like?

Slightly, Noah slowly rises up, putting her thoughts together.

Tsui, in his right eye, the light that made him feel the depth of his thoughts was blinking.
