Different World Reincarnation as a Sage ~With my Gaming Knowledge, I’ll become the World’s Strongest~

◇ (cardinal perspective)

"What did you say now?"

Cardinal Georgis asked in an angry voice.

Beyond that glance were soldiers shrinking with fear.

Cardinal Georgis, Cardinal Office.

There was heavy air in the room, decorated with luxurious ornaments.

"Please say again. What did you say now?"

The soldier asked by the Cardinal shrugged.

And ... I speak with a trembling voice.

"... I'm so sorry. Chi ..." The "Rite of Blood Stone" failed again. "

"Shit!"

When the Cardinal heard the soldier's voice, he angryly pulled out his sword on his waist and shook himself down to the soldier.

Its swords, which are not trained, were terrible, but expensive swords cut the soldier's body with sharpness to make up for it.

The soldier collapsed, complaining of distress, and died.

Nobody says anything.

In the room there were dozens of other people, including cardinals and soldiers, as well as aides, but everyone was silent.

If you open your mouth, you will be seen killed by the next jade ball.

"Someone! Someone ?! Who knows the reason for the failure!"

The reason Cardinal was frustrated was obvious.

Drugs-healing drugs have not been made.

The most important and valuable ingredient in healing medicine is bradonna grass.

Once you have the bradonna grass, you can easily make a healing medicine.

And by performing Cardinal Georgis's "Rite of the Blood Stone", he can obtain a large amount of Bradonna grass in exchange for one "Living Man".

Therefore, as long as you have enough disposable slaves, you can make as much medicine as you want.

It should have been.

... Until a man named Eldo attacks the altar.

After the man's assault on the altar, Bloodstone Ritual has never been successful.

It's fine until the evil spirit approaches, but the evil spirit called by the ceremony will leave on the way as if by something.

It was a mysterious phenomenon that had never been observed before the altar was attacked.

"Isn't the arrangement of the altar shifted by the explosion?"

The Cardinal asks the ceremonial officer.

When Erdo stormed the altar, she cast a mysterious magic called "Steam Explosion" on the altar.

However, Cardinal does not trust this magic name.

Probably, there is no such magic, and it was cast to induce this misunderstanding.

The exact details of the magic used are under investigation, but the size of the power is likely to be a ritual magic by many sorcerers.

The power of the reported "Steam Explosion" magic isn't something humans can put out on their own.

But with many wizards and long rituals, there is a possibility.

In any case, the altar was exposed to enormous magic.

The altar is very heavy and doesn't move easily ... but it's not supposed to be so magical.

The altar may have been moved by the magical shock.

That altar appears to have been placed casually, and in fact has been placed in extremely harsh magical conditions.

In the vast Cardinal Georgis territory, that is the only place where altars can be placed.

And misalignment is not permissible even in millimeters.

"It can't be! The altar placement is measured by magic. There must be a mistake."

"Why then, the ritual won't succeed!"

"I don't know! I have told you that something we can't understand is happening the other day!"

The ceremony staff answers with a tired voice.

I don't even want to count the number of repeats of this same exchange.

Probably more than 30 times.

"The ceremony needs to be successful anyway! You know it!"

There's a reason Cardinal Georgis is so impatient here.

After the adventurer Eldo stormed the altar, Marquis Maier began to make suspicious moves.

Given that timing, the reason is clear.

Probably, Marquis Mayor has proof footage of Eldo shot with magic tools.

It is easy to squeeze if you are an average noble with the proof footage.

However, Marquis Maier is the strongest nobleman in the anti-Georgisian sect.

On the contrary, he is regarded as one of the country's leading nobles in terms of political skills.

If he was seriously moving in secret, he wouldn't be able to catch suspicious movements.

The fact that it has come to light ... probably the marquis is no longer willing to hide this matter.

The process of quietly negotiating is already over, and the rest is the finishing stage.

If you let go, Cardinal Georgis will definitely be ousted.

That's why I want to take countermeasures ... the necessary power is being lost to Cardinal Georgis.

Cardinal Georgis's overwhelming political power came from the monopoly of healing drug production.

It would be painful to say that even if the monopoly was broken by Count Meigis, it would hurt, but it would not even be possible to manufacture.

Until now, we have managed to maintain our body by eating out the stock of healing drugs-but that stock is running out.

If the Bloodstone Ritual is not successful, Cardinal Georgis will have no chance.

(That man, Eldo ... When he disappeared, he was praying, "Because my victory is already decided."

If that guy was crafted so that the ritual would fail during the raid, we can understand the reason for that remark.

But there is no point in knowing it.

Once the cause is known, there is no way to make the ritual successful.

If you have a problem with the altar, there is one solution.
