A Wish to Grab Happiness

Episode 543: The Tale of a Man

The Catholic Church is directly under the northern part of the Garrison Kingdom.

Now the kingdom and this great religion are trying to unite in a new sense.

The kingdom that lost its kingdom needed the backing of the Catholic Church, and the Catholic Church, which had no authority over the state, always sought its own dependency.

With the emergence of external pressure, the new kingdom led by Queen Phyllos, both thoughts were beginning to show complete agreement.

The greatest of these is the rise of the noble Olivia-Berch.

The Belch family was not only in the Garrison kingdom but also close to the Catholic Church. It was most convenient to have a relationship between the two.

It is easy to understand when it comes to adjusters and negotiators.

What makes the Belch family stronger is that one of their daughters, Olivia, is an old friend of the Virgin Arieno. Olivia is the only one the Virgin still calls her friend.

In Arieno's private room, Olivia sounded suspicious.

"- If you say, there's nothing wrong with not letting me through, right?

Olivia said so unusual and without hindsight. Rather than being a nobleman, it's more like talking to a friend.

"Oh, that's not true. The order is important. If we can't get through, we'll have a clash."

Virgin Arieno was lying on the sofa with her shoes off in front of Olivia.

It sounded nice to say that I was relaxed, but it was so much so.

Olivia nods little at her words and then opens her mouth.

"Okay. Then let me advise His Majesty Amelitz to send an army. The name is the crusade of the arrogant... even though there is no name for it now."

The old kingdom and the new kingdom will no longer have to clash with each other.

It's just whether it's fast or slow. There are many motives for pointing a spear at each other. You can just say what Arieno wanted.

In Olivia's words, Arieno smiled bitterly. While ordering a war herself, she shows herself to be as charming as a girl.

Is this the Virgin? I don't think this was the case when I went to the convent.

"... hey, Arieno. You think you can win? This war."

"Of course. Wars that cannot be won should not be fought."

Arieno smiled lightly, but Olivia was dazzled. I know what it means for her to be a saint. There is no doubt whatsoever about the words coming out of that lip.

If this was just a believer, I was certain of victory.

But Olivia must have been closer to Arieno. I could not honestly swallow the word.

Olivia is a realistic woman. She was a woman who could observe her situation objectively. It is only natural to understand which side of the new kingdom or the old kingdom has momentum now.

The new kingdom that kills dragons and magicians and receives a new queen is at its climax. No, maybe we'll climb even further.

On the other hand, speaking of this side, it is a complete failure. The king lost his capital, most of his territory, only his name and his army. Even though you have many heroes, it's the same for your enemies.

Though the number exceeds the number, winning or losing is dangerous. That was Olivia's realistic decision.

If there are any winning eyes left, it's just that we have the Virgin.

Did you notice Olivia's sharp eyes? Arieno said in an unconscious voice.

"It's okay. Since I was a kid, Rugis has never beaten me in a fight or anything. I'll win again."

"Yes... I'm sorry, Arieno. Say it again."

"Rugis has never beaten me."

The tea poured into my throat was about to flow back. Arieno's straightforward words are too scary.

Speaking of Lugis, there are no more Archbishops, no more strangers in the Garrison Kingdom.

Great evil. Great rebel. Anti-hero Lugis. Those who could not even kill a dragon.

It must be a great enemy to the Catholic Church and to the Garrison Kingdom. There are many territories hanging on his neck.

If we assume that King Amelitz is back in power, just killing him will make him a lighter duke.

Arieno calls the names of such abominable enemies like they were caught in the heat.

"Oh, you didn't say that. Lugis and I grew up in the same orphanage. We swore to each other's future."

"Eh, nnh...."

I said nothing.

How much easier it would be for you to laugh at me for joking here now? But Arieno doesn't look like that. There was even an interesting passage about Olivia's reaction.

It was not a good thing that there was a deep relationship between the Archbishop's Virgin and the real culmination of the hostile forces. Knowing is dangerous in itself.

After drinking a lot of spit, Olivia asked.

"I wonder who else knows."

"Just you, Olivia. Do you mind?

After all, Olivia thought.

Arieno didn't occasionally slip his mouth. I dared to expose my relationship with Lugis.

To see Olivia starting to feel a sense of crisis in her current situation and to get tangled up before she gets lost.

Now, that's what I'm saying.

There was no gap enough to wrap my tongue around. Arieno's golden eyes stare at Olivia.

I made a decision in an instant. Olivia was convinced that she would die otherwise.

"... I'm not going to stop your friend now. I want you to tell me anyway. What kind of person is Lugis?"

Breathing deeply, Olivia sat down next to Arieno. Arieno still had the usual sad look on her face.

◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

What kind of person is Lugis?

In response to Olivia's inquiry, Arieno unexpectedly turned to her chest.

Speaking of which, how did it look from your point of view?

─ There's nothing to tell. He killed the Magus and killed the dragon. But I don't have any more of that. He's not a hero or a brave man. "

The Lord of Voices is the Spirit Ultia. The same sole as the Virgin. Things that transcend people and magic.

God speaks in a shaky, yet frightening fashion.

What does it mean to have no end?

Asked, Ultia leaked her words for a moment.

The voice is slightly emotional. Recently, Arieno felt that such opportunities were increasing. Maybe it's proof that you're beginning to assimilate with yourself.

─ Let's talk about a man, Arieno. The journey I took in the past. The extra person or companion talks as if I were the center, but that is a mistake. That man was the beginning of everything, the center of everything. "

Altia says nostalgically. It was like trying to familiarize yourself with Arieno.

In the distant past, the man spoke.

"Stupid. Why should I give up? Nothing is impossible in this world. The world is full of joy!

He was a madman.

The era when magic was still the hegemon of the earth, and mankind was their livestock and only food. That's what the man proclaimed with unquestionable eyes.

Everyone saw him with suspicious eyes. I walked away from him so he wouldn't get involved. No one believed his words.

But he believed in people.

"I will never lose. We don't run away from the environment! Live! Living is not pain. Living is not hate!

Eventually, someone attracted to the man's words begins to appear.

A thief who knew nothing but to curse things.

The red copper was a mass of skepticism.

And a girl who doesn't know love.

Sometimes things were moving around him as he continued his journey.

That's because I'm sure he didn't know he was going to save himself. Throw out your body and throw yourself through with an unknown gesture, such as pain or wounds. With calories unlike any of his usual. No one could leave him like that.

The man spoke many times.

There is no impossibility in this world. We have to give up.

Around the man, many heroes were born. He was undoubtedly a hope for the people and for the girl. The girl was said to be great with her genius, but the girl believed that men were great.

It seemed impossible for me to be with him.

--But it was ironically the body of a man that first fell in front of the impossible wall.

The man was neither a hero nor a brave man. The soul is mediocre and the body is human everywhere.

Originally, the human body has not been able to continue to progress.

Sometimes you stop and take a break, and then you get food to finally move on.

It is evil and not virtue to throw away the time to sleep and the time to rest and move forward.

It is madness and not courage to suppress the flesh moaning in pain and suffering.

I'm sure the man even knew that. That's why I said this at the end of my life as a human being.

"That's good. Where I'm dead, somebody else will do my part again! I was happy until the end. Until the end, I told you about this next to you!

I'm sure that was the time. It was a girl who didn't know about love who wanted to know about it and save a man. That's why they're still here, scratching the algae to save each other. Even if the road was decisively wrong.

─ In the end, a man named Lugis is no different from that man. I don't know that it will stop, and I think it is my duty to keep going. It's clogged, and eventually it's destined to break. No, it broke once. "

Arieno didn't know what Altia was talking about. What do you mean, broken?

Ultia inherited the word before questioning it.

"So - he still has to die in despair. No more miracles."
