Thirteenth Report: Why do we have weapons in the casino?
The heretic exterminator (Crusader) is given great authority to protect the world from the hands of darkness, but there are procedures for heretical certification as well.
It's easy if your opponent is a Demon, but if you kill people for no reason in most countries of this world, you're guilty of murder.
The power of the Holy Church of AZ GREED is rooted in most countries.
As you can see from Gregorio's still walking flat out there, most things can be dispelled, but he has never gone beyond using calm means.
Though I'm used to it already, I have bad feelings. Trouble. Why should we not only beat the Demons but also the humans?
The subject of this one has money. And money is largely tied to power.
Not to mention if some of that money is flowing to the church in Lims as a donation, the obstacles are also greater.
Well, either way, I'm just gonna punch you until you get your stuff out.
The church in Lims was a short distance from the casino.
I unwittingly open my eyes to a huge building that I can clearly see from a few hundred meters away.
The church in Lims was like the palace of White Asia. It is no less magnificent in size and majesty than the Church of the King's Capital, Luke, built with the prestige of the Church. In a splendid spire, down to the bell.
This... sounds like a slap.
Most churches, if not battlefield churches, are resting at night, but the church in Lims was lit with bright light.
Among the wide open doors are those who were obviously delayed in gambling until just a moment ago. Maybe he's here to ask God.
I've proven that the god of order, Az Gried, isn't that free and praying doesn't make him lucky, but, well, he won't even hit a guest. Draw the crowd, show them the earrings in your left ear and have them go through inside.
The existence of heretical exterminators has not been made so great in the Church, but even at the lower end he seemed to know as much as a sign of the bishophood.
Waiting in the deepest part of the church I was guided was a big priest.
Though it made the expression large, etc., its body shape is wider than vertical, and whether it gained weight from the donation from the casino or whether its jaw is bunk. But there's a lot of intimidation from that standpoint, and this probably makes it worthy of being the summariser of Rims' church.
A robe decorated in white with gold thread is also a luxury item. The priest checked the earrings on my left ear with cautious eyes, and frowned upon this sight. Mace came to the inn, but if he had it, would he have reacted differently?
But I'm used to that reaction. The church is not a single rock either.
Look over the room. The priest's room appeared primitive at first glance, in contrast to the lavish church building.
But if you look carefully, you can see that you are exhausting your luxury in detail. One wooden desk. A splendid object made of very fine wood, and about the liquor casually decorated on a glass shelf, probably at a price that pops out your eyes.
When I thanked Sister for guiding me, I stepped forward, put my hand on my chest and thanked her.
"Excuse me for the night. It's Ares Crown."
"... His Holiness the Bishop of Ares. Welcome to Lims. I'm Theo Lombardi, a priest in this rim. I didn't expect the bishop to come on a night like this... for the first time since I became a priest in this city's church."
"Oh, do me a favor, Priest Theo. I've never been here before, but I was surprised at this city. I didn't know it was so busy even though I was up late already."
"Sure, because that's the kind of city Rims is. But if you look in other cities, there will be busy places. So, what can I do for you?
Apparently, Priest Theo doesn't want me to stay long enough. I haven't put it on my face openly, but its mouth and grass convey that sentiment.
No, I probably dare to tell you that. That's right. From a man who is king in the church of Lims, he would only be an enemy, such as a high-ranking monk who came from outside. And I'm actually the enemy.
I pulled myself together. Shoulder to shoulder.
"I'm not going to stay long. Ask them straight in. You know that casino manager in this city?
"That's... of course. Piotr Delholm. He is the best bourgeoisie in the city, sometimes called Casino King. There will be no strangers living in this city."
"You're getting a lot of donations, aren't you?
"Yeah, thankfully, yeah. But it's legitimate. There's no reason to be questioned on a night like this."
Theo's eyebrows are flashed for a moment, but he responds immediately. Perhaps you are confident that you can avoid it even if you are pursued. Or is it growing because there are no enemies in this city?
Theo must have some knowledge with Puttle. Money, authority and the church have an unbroken relationship. If you stick it from there, you may not have to resort to violence.
He raised his left hand and pointed to a black ring embedded in his pharmacopoeia - a sign of the heretic exterminator. Theo gives me a surprise look.
"I'm a heretic exterminator (Crusader). Puttle Delholm is suspected of heresy. I would also like to ask the Priest Theo to cooperate."
"Divergent... exterminator? Stupid... Puttle is innocent, heretical, etc., and there's no proof whatsoever..."
I got here to Theo's expression, and I still couldn't see the rush. The heretic exterminator is a dark part of the church, it is inevitable that it will not be made public, but how about it be well known to the inner members?
Pack a distance from a peaceful priest and look down on the little priest for one head. Smile and at the same time mix slight warfare.
So you finally understand the situation now, your expression changes.
"Look, Theo Lombardi. Whether it's clean or not... I'll decide. If you want to prove your innocence, we need your help. Priest Theo has a duty to cooperate, better not to resist. Everyone who ever resisted regretted it."
If you're a bourgeoisie, you know about the heretic exterminator.
If the other guy is a smart guy, he'll be settled soon.
§
I have no idea why the prize at the casino has the famous weapon gear.
Weapon armor shines only when it comes to good users. If it's peaceful now, I still don't understand it, but there are some that are peacefully bogged down, such as decorating it with the demon king's army attacking it.
Don't put your actual supplies down! Put down your precious metals and artwork!
"Tyranny! There's no way I'm allowed to do that!
Hearing my demands, Theo spits and yells. Her face was bright red and her sweat was running sloppy.
"Oh, they often say. But this is how it is allowed. Look, I have a right to have Priest Theo cut off without any hard evidence. If the other person is an inside person, there's no time for post-processing."
It is a right granted to man to execute the demonic tribe immediately.
Of course, it's not permitted under national law, but it doesn't matter. Can you keep the law to clean up the Dark Family?
Whose forgiveness? God.
Sit back on the tree desk and look down at Theo.
Though I'm out of my hands, I didn't know I could still retain my prestige in the wake of Level 90 over 'Intimidation (Pressure)', that's the priesthood.
"I don't expect to get help from the start. But I don't want to kill you as much as possible. All I want is' Armor of Aggregated Metal (Sam Metal) '"
"Oh, oh, that's the eyeball of the casino! Impossible! So many prominent mercenaries have negotiated a purchase, but Puttle didn't snort!
I already know that information. If it's easy to get, I haven't come to church.
Squeeze as much as you can. Make me snort. I just haven't put my hands down yet. I'm sweeter than Gregorio.
"Look, Priest Theo. That's what I'm saying, do something. Or what? Are you heretical?
"Or he has countless guards on him. Threats are impossible!
"I'll decide if it's impossible..."
Sure, what Theo says makes sense. The escort Puttle is wearing is a level mercenary who fights on the front lines.
The number is a few, but from a light examination, what a leader's level is above 80. It's a strange level to be here. In some cases - it would be a tough fight.
But this isn't a battlefield. There is no way to kill a high level of humans, but you can heal them later as long as you can avoid instant death. You should be stuck by accident.
So I loosened my expression and stopped the intimidation. I go down from the desk, pay my pants and clothes, drop the tone of my voice and say.
"- But yes... thank you for your cooperation"
".................. Huh?
Theo opens his eyes. I'm serious.
"I came to a conviction in the testimony of Priest Theo, that he is - heretical. Definitely Klanos the Demon."
"!? What? That's not true."
"It is a terrible operation to reduce the power of the people by collecting excellent weapons and sealing them in the casino. I would never have noticed without your testimony. Originally, we should have just bought 'Armor of Aggregated Metal (Sam Metal)' in peace... but in the name of God of Order, we would have collected all our property and squeezed the information out of Puttle. You are the hero of Rims."
That's the worst hand I've ever had.
I have no hesitation in turning people off, but Puttle is too influential to cut without proof. It would also be difficult to confiscate all property. Luke owes me a loan for using the miracle of a hero summons, but I owe him a lot to take that into account.
But it's never impossible.
Theo's complexion turns bright blue. You must have understood what I was talking about.
Puttle fell into the hands of the church. If it were to be heretically certified and even confiscated of property, it would be Theo, the priest of this city, who would stand on the arrow.
The casino is Limus' lifeline. If it goes away, this city will be devastated, and Puttle has a lot of company. High level mercenaries can be used as escorts, some of whom will specialize in vandalism.
Retaliation is possible enough. From what I've heard, Theo seems to be in a lower position than Puttle. I don't think Theo can protect himself like that.
"Wow, okay! All right, we'll work together! Maybe not, but let's talk, so... forgive me."
Theo scratches his head and says in a trembling voice. If you can do it, do it from the beginning.
I look down at Theo from close range and tell him to say it.
"Look, Priest Theo, I'm not interested in you at all... Blah, I'm not even interested in Puttle. So use every method if you want to achieve your purpose. If you want to kill a family of darkness, you will kill as many people as you want, a noble sacrifice, oh so heartbreaking"
But don't worry. Keep quiet that Imechen of Fujido is the beginning of the action. It's a guy called Mercy.
"Don't think you can escape the hands of a heretic exterminator."
