Winter in the capital

The investigation did not lead to a lengthy investigation.

Now that the situation was over, I noticed that everyone believed me.

Me and Karin Vestat killed two Superior Spirits and mentioned the existence of the Spiritual System. This word will now spread throughout the kingdom.

I will gain an extraordinary reputation, and Karin's name... I don't want to get on the verge of anything about the Vestadt family.

Let's go think about this.

And Kelvin thanked me for the top line, and I'm not really sure what's going to happen.

"Master Knight. I have to report to Saintess at least once, so I will go back soon."

"Ah, yes. I have to. I've had a lot of trouble. I'll give you an escort if you need one."

"Thank you, but that's okay."

"I don't need it because I'm good enough to kill those superior spirits. Then I see."

I don't have to be here because I've finished the guidance and the testimony. Immediately he greeted Kelvin and approached the paladins.

"Crusaders, I will go back and report to the Saint."

"Got it! We're going to investigate a little bit more here and go back! Can those spirits reappear? Leave this place to us and Paladin will inform the Saint of this situation as soon as possible!"

"Hahaha! Leave it to me!!"

After that, I left the room to go down to the first floor. If you run into the power alone, you'll be back in no time. You can just go home tomorrow.

But while I was out, the wizards who were waiting everywhere came and bothered me.

"Paladin! Please stop by our Horse Tower! I'm sure I can tell you a good story!"

"No, come to us! Please! A very important opportunity to uncover the secrets of the Superior Spirits! Analyzing the enemy is the way for humanity! I believe you know Paladin!"

"I have as much money as I can!!"

Greed flows out of the wizards' faces.

"I don't intend to sell."

"Wait!"

Like I said, I don't intend to sell. I came down to the first floor with a simple statement of intent on coming to them. What am I supposed to do if I don't sell it? I know you have a right to me. There are no people to yell at Paladin.

That was when I came down to the first floor.

"There."

When a woman called me, she was the blonde fellow I saw in the conference room.

"Aren't you the Night Chief Yarnna?"

"... you remembered. Yes."

Were you waiting for me? And then this woman told me about Karin. I think you know Karin. This is a face that looks about thirty... I don't know the exact age.

"Are you here for Karin?"

"You know very well."

"I just want to ask you how you know Karin."

"Ah..."

After a while, she opened her mouth.

"I was in the same unit once. I've also seen her quit the Knights..."

"Motivation?"

"Not until motive... I came in later than her. I was remembering her because she was very good at it. It's been a long time since I heard that name."

Is that so?

I don't think there's much of a connection. He was in the same unit as Karin back then, so he must have remembered.

"That's the way it is. I get it.I think I know why you talked, but I don't have much to tell you. I've been in touch with her, and I'm acting together. There won't be any special reports."

"... I see. I see."

You must have been ordered to ask me something. I blocked her question by speaking first and came out.

Outside the palace, knights were collecting the remains of the warriors. Corpses of completely frozen knights. And the bodies of ordinary soldiers.

What a terrible sight.

At least it's the Ice Spirit King. What if the Fire Spirit King came? Honestly, I think you'd be more demanding. If the one who came around in the autumn burned down this grain field completely, there would be no answer.

It's fucking dangerous.

We must inform the Saintess of this threat. With that in mind, I now frequencized the maze of ice that completely memorized the path to full speed. Honestly, whatever you're doing these days, running alone is the fastest.

After returning to the property, I took a day off and left for the capital the next day.

In a few days, Il Ryong and Ding Ryong were so healthy that they felt satisfied just by watching. I can't stand swearing every time I see it. Even if you sit on a horse seat and see them making fun of their feet, there's a lot of fog coming out.

Anyway, my eyes were fluttering all the way down, but I was just on the big road anyway, so there was no big problem. This time, he returned at the highest speed and was soon able to return to the house he missed.

"Aw, fuck. My house is the best."

There's nothing more comfortable than home.

As soon as I arrived, I just packed and rested.

I have a lot of work to do from today.

I have to write a report and go to church.

I've already cleared up all how to rob Agari. All you have to do is go and talk. The Saint will respond very seriously to the keyword "threat of the spiritual system."

"Father, I have a letter."

"What? A letter?"

The day after I got home.

I'm sitting on the sofa in my living room with my shorts on, but I'm writing a report, so Ari comes with a pink envelope.

"Ah."

When I saw that pink, I thought about it. Last time, Jennia sent me a letter. I was completely blinking.

I immediately received the letter and took out the contents.

I wanted to know what else I was going to say, but it was surprisingly correct. Specifically set the date and place of the meeting. Starting today, it says I'll see you two at a restaurant in a few days. When did you send this?

Did you notice our house was empty and send it like this?

"What does it say?"

Ari came up on the couch, grabbed my neck and turned his head toward the letter.

"What we're just looking at. It doesn't really matter."

I showed Ari for a moment and finished writing a report. So Risha came down from the second floor. It looks like you washed your face and came down from the washroom on the second floor. He's also dressed. The black cisru dress is the identity of Risha.

"Uh, what is it? Risha, what are you doing up so early?"

"Ah, I intend to touch the heart of the Spirit King from now on. I wanted to be relaxed, but I can't be lazy."

Stubborn witch.

"Uh-huh, did you want to touch it like that?"

"Isn't it a very interesting material? I couldn't bear to touch it all the time."

Lisa likes this stuff.

"For now, I intend to do research and experimentation. In her opinion... it would be nice to make artifacts or some kind of elixir using the heart, but there are a lot of processes to do that."

"Yes."

That's right. The Ice Spirit King is almost the first magical item to be revealed. You'll have to undergo thorough research and verification, but you'll be able to use something properly.

"Risha could do anything. I'll believe you."

Whatever it is, I'll leave it to Risha.

"Hahaha, that's just a laugh. Yes, you can only trust your own daughter. She'll be in the basement, so if something needs to happen to her, let her come down."

"Can I go down there and hit my ass?"

"Ze...! Bo, there's nothing you can't say to your mother-in-law! I can't believe you just said that!"

At that moment, Risha blushes her face and screams.

"If you come down to such a task, you will never forgive!"

The moment Lisa's face was completely reddish, she lifted up her skirt slightly, showed off her buttocks, and went down to the basement.

This one won't go down.

"Father... do you like hitting your ass so much?"

At that moment, Ari said that he should not be naive.

"No, Ari? Why do you say that all of a sudden?"

"I want to do it too."

"... let's think about that next time. Let's start with this."

That's how I wrote the report.

You can arrange it today and take it tomorrow.

The next day.

After completing the report the previous day, I got up early in the morning to prepare and headed for the replacement. I'm going to have to ask you if you can chew up the combat priest's equipment after seeing it today. It was a little decorated for the Spirit-king cocksucker.

"Saint, I'm here!!"

"Here you are, Paladin."

As soon as he opened the door, he greeted me with a loud greeting, and the Saint, who was smoking with his legs broken, rubbed off the ashtray and welcomed me.

"What happened? I came quite early, but did you cooperate with the knights to solve the job and return first? What's the status of the Crusaders' damage?"

"I've outlined everything in the report. Read it."

I handed her the report right away.

The Saint accepted the report and began to read it at a fast pace. Then the gaze stopped for a moment.

"... two superior spiritual entities and a spiritual system?"

I'm reading you.

"Yes."

"And... the army and the Knights. You didn't cooperate with the Crusaders sent to defeat them, did you just solve it?"

"You could say yes."

- Bloop.

The Saint put down the report.

"Explain yourself in words."

"I see!"

I immediately recited what I had prepared.

I will say the same thing to the Saint anyway. Spirits of the spiritual system have opened the gates and invaded. The two superior spirits that appear are only the vanguard. And this invasion will not stop at once.

Like demons.

"So, to sum up... the spiritual system is in existence, and the gate with you is open. The spirits could invade like demons?"

The Saint leaned on his back in a chair with his arms extended, and looked into my eyes with his legs bent.

"That's it. That's pretty clear information. It's a story I've heard about fighting them. And now that Gate has witnessed it himself, put my name on it, this is an emergency. If we don't deal with it right now, the spirits will organize an invasion."

I reiterate.

"And I haven't told anyone yet, but I'll tell the Saint. Don't be alarmed. Those superior spirits have mentioned the existence of the Spirit King."

"... the Spirit King."

The Saint's eyes narrowed.

"Yes."

I don't know the Knights of the Kingdom, but the Saint is the one who trusts me. So you can talk about this.

"Perhaps even the spiritual kings of the spiritual world, like the great demons of Pandemonium, are looking for human land. In fact, the superior spirits poured out their hatred for humans. They exterminate people and they take back the land, and they say in this nuance,"

"..."

"Saint, I have also highlighted the report, but this is very serious. I've been feeling very desperate about it. The spirit system has the same threats as the Pandemonium!!"

- Bang!

I knocked on the desk once with my palm.

"..."

When the Saint saw me like that, he was silent for a while, and he slowly snapped his head to the side.

"This is serious."

Then I slowly opened my mouth.

"Paladin is also very gifted to ask for serious things... The spiritual system and the spiritual king, so we need to formalize this properly. As Paladin emphasized, I will send a formal letter to the royal side as well."

That Saint looked pretty serious.

I am also aware of the seriousness of this situation.

"..."

But I felt like I was going somewhere else.

- Grab it.

I was biting the fingernails of my thumb while looking at my eyes with a strange expression. What is this anxiety disorder? After the Pandemonium, did you become habitual because of the sudden stress placed on you by the threat of petroleum in front of the spiritual system?

One arm, which was originally holding the arm, supported the chest, and the forearm was pressing against the breast by breaking the nails.

"... Saint?"

"I understood the situation."

Well, thank goodness.

"By the way... I guess this is the most important thing."

"What do you mean?"

The spiritual system and the spiritual king.

And the invasion.

I just said all the most important and serious stories.

"Karin."

"Yes?"

"That's a girl's name."

The Saint, who reached towards the report, mentioned Karin's name.

"Karin Vestatra... the former Knight of the Kingdom? It says with this woman that she exterminated two superior spirits."

I've written all about Karin.

"Can you elaborate on what's going on, Paladin?"

Her eyes narrowed.
