Former General Is Undead Knight

Lesson 27: The Rose of the Subworld ③

A group of Zebedai Cardinals were moving through the underground passage with an emphasis on Simon taking the lead and fleeing the chase.

But Simon, after checking his surroundings with his eyes meditating, shook his head and stopped his legs.

"What's the matter, Simon?"

"... Cardinals, they are pushing us in tandem. To some extent, I was wondering if you were grasping the labyrinth of this underground passage"

Simon tells Cardinal Zebedai.

Tensions ran over Simon's men.

"Hmm... Hmm"

Cardinal Zebedai shrugs with a cold grin.

The underground passage is a last resort to protect dignitaries and is highly confidential.

Among the heretical inquisitions, only a really limited number of people get the full picture of it.

I just think someone betrayed me for something.

"But even if a traitor came out of our people, it doesn't seem like a nun." The Flute Demon "has many sorceries that our Church should have written off from history over the years and at many sacrifices. It may not be impossible to brainwash or imitate information from a corpse."

That's what Cardinal Zebedai heard and laughed contentedly in a low voice.

"I see, oh, I see... that's good news"

"Good news, is it?

"If we catch them, does that mean that the handy technique will be in our hands? If we can only acquire such devil's art, we will make it easier to bull the Kingdom of Legions."

…………

Simon did not respond to the words of Cardinal Zebedai, but the men were running upset.

Indeed, the heretical Inquisition is an institution that is silencing the Kingdom in controlling contraindications by contraindications.

But the ideas that Cardinal Zebedai now spoke of were somewhat extreme to them.

Above all, it was concerned with the rhetoric that the heretical Inquisition did not take the magic into its hands, as if it were owned by Cardinal Zebedai personally as a means.

Cardinal Zebedai turns to his men.

"... this kingdom has too many people who have forgotten their faith. Magic easily turns one sinner into a demon. That's why the tragedy repeats itself. People's hands are too short to bind every human being. Only by the faith of the absolute judgment of God is the goodness of man and the peace of the country guaranteed"

Cardinal Zebedai makes a fist grip with his hands as he forces his face to snap his eagle nose.

"It's too hot, what's the status quo? If all the people of this country give me about me, they will eradicate the banned sorcerer and show me all the tragedies of this country, but all the time this guy is just a fool who doesn't show my understanding. This is the second saint, Heinz, who must guide the way of this country."

"Yes, Cardinal."

Simon bows his head.

The Christians followed him and bowed their heads in unison to Cardinal Zebedai.

Cardinal Zebedai's face instantly changed from anger to a gentle smile.

"That's a sloppy story. It's my bad habit. So, Simon, stopping your leg changes the way you move against the chaser?

"Seems so. As it is, you will be surrounded by a number of interests. The breakthrough would be easy if it were only for Noh, but if you guide the Cardinal himself, from this place with many branches, it would be easy to choose a number of thin paths to break through at once and shake them off once. I want to make sure my enemies are blurred."

Simon says so and shows one path with his fingers.

"This way, I was wondering if you'd mind. There are about five of them, but there's no problem. Your men will protect the Cardinal."

Following Simon's back, a group of cardinals proceeds.

Simon gets zero after a while.

"Cardinal, it's time to come"

Almost at the same time as the words, a five-man group wrapped around a robe and carrying each weapon appears above the end of the aisle.

"There he is, Zebedai!

"Kill him!"

Simon closes his eyes and kicks the ground.

At that moment Simon's small body disappeared from the sight of those who were present on the spot.

"Where..."

The two necks that stood at the head bent threads and the body slammed against the wall.

Simon kicked left and right.

He poked the third eyeball deep as it was and burst his heart by poking the fourth through his chest with his palm bottom.

The fifth is slaughtered by our samurai with a sword.

Simon plays the central part of the sword belly with his fingers.

The sword turned and slashed the abdomen of the man who was about to slash him.

"Oh, that's Simon! In no time, I destroyed the pigs!

Cardinal Zebedai laughs at the tease.

Simon dares to keep him alive, grabbing and lifting the neck of the man who chooses both eyes.

"... you had some strange powers about how you were in a state of excitement, but you're almost just an amateur. It's raw and warm for the Spirit of The Whistling Devil."

Knowing the information of Simon's remote position, the "Mind Eye" is, in short, a technique that precisely senses the mana of the remote position.

It can be understood without relying on sight but without any blind spots for it, and even the psychological state of the other person is thin.

Though the mind and eyes are acquired by some of the people of the Heinz Church, no one else has reached the outward realm like Simon.

In addition to "Heart-Eye," Simon wore martial arts known as "Divine Fist".

It is a fast body surgery that relies little on muscle strength and is made possible by the torture of the body by mana, a body that is lighter to the extreme.

It is his style of combat to deceive the sight of the enemy and defeat the enemy without understanding the situation, thanks to his fast somatology by "Divine Fist," and his extremely small body and grasp of the surrounding gaze by "Mind Eye".

Simple but therefore difficult to combat.

In fact, Simon has never been wounded as one on a battlefield since establishing this tactic.

Simon met the "Heart Eye" and "Divine Fist", and their extreme dwarf, in a training called the Thirteen Heavenly Luo Enlightenment Law, whose achievements were to be recognized and entrusted to the heads of the four Holy Pillars.

The Thirteen Heavenly Luo Gospel is the one who sits on a stone for thirteen years and continues to spend his time sewing his eyes.

If you are a regular person, you will starve to death without holding it for seven days, or it is a harsh training that goes wild and leads to death.

It is unacceptable to interrupt along the way, and more than three hundred human beings have challenged this and lost their lives in the past, even from the Church of Heinz.

Simon is the achiever of the Thirteenth Heavenly Royal Enlightenment, the third in history to include Saint Heinz.

"Which, then let me worship your face"

Simon takes off the man's deeply worn robe.

Of the raiders, he seemed like a very ordinary, commonplace man.

"Kill me... there's nothing to talk about..."

Speak in a voice like a man squeezes out.

"The, Zail......!

Hearing it, one of Simon's men shook his voice and leaned back loudly.

"You know what?

"Hey, I was one of the Christians, and I knew him well. Not long ago, he disappeared from this heinstier..."
