Isekai Apocalypse Mynoghra
Episode 105: Diary (1)
The capital of the former Renea Divine Kingdom of Light.
The ashes of the former cathedral, however, were now transformed into temporary command posts in the Holy Kingdom of Qualia.
Some support from home has arrived, and a number of tents have been set up where the rubble has been cleared and landed, and various supplies such as food for distribution and medicinal herbs for medical use have been accumulated.
The king of doom manifested his malice and violence, destroying one nation for each of the saints.
Of course, there was also opposition to the creation of a command post in such a place.
That's why it made sense for the Holy Kingdom of Qualoria to lay roots in the land, monitor evil, comfort the people, and rebuild the city.
In words, it was pleasant to hear, but the saints in the diary, which is currently the best strength of Qualia, were nailed in this southern province.
"Inquisitor Imlayis. Report on zoning. Report on cookouts. It will be a report on the treatment status of the plague.”
"-Thank you, please give a verbal outline for each one"
At the desk in the tent, the heretic Inquisitor, Kreuze-Imreis, led the reconstruction of the city while receiving a report from the Holy Knight.
Divergent Inquisitors in Qualia possess special titles, various knowledge and skills.
The authority and ability to lead the military in emergencies, negotiate with other countries, and rebuild cities struck by disasters are diverse.
Therefore, it was by no means impossible for Klee to lead the Knights and troops on behalf of the Holy Maid to rebuild here.
But everything is missing.
This dispatch is only a matter of investigation. Of course, apart from the Holy Knight, some personnel such as state soldiers and back support priests have been brought, but large-scale activities such as reestablishing an entire city are not naturally envisaged.
Damage is spreading throughout Southern states.
There are not only villages dotted around, but also several large cities.
Even if this city where they are stationed is the most damaged, it is not good to ignore the other damages.
And she has too little power to reach out to all the Southern states.
To be honest, the various measures implemented by Kreye were efficient, but they were said to be water on the baking stone.
"This is the report." This was followed by a plague that spread to the city, but fortunately many people recovered on their own with something like a cold. However, it is highly contagious and rapidly spread to all of Southern California, and we cannot be optimistic. I've been talking to my people, but I think we need to be prepared for a long battle. "
“That's not good. ― ― In such a case, containment by isolation of the patient is the rule, but in a situation of large scale and insufficient personnel, there is no bundle. I'm sorry, but we have to focus on the seriously injured."
A young knight man nods regretfully, the same age as Kreye's words.
It is by no means unstoppable. I just don't have enough supplies and manpower.
It was clear that the impatience of not going as I thought was manifested in a bitter expression.
Little support. Sounds petty, but as a matter of fact, I didn't wait with my fingers on my native - in other words, Qualia.
If the El-Nur Pact alliance falls, the world of war will inevitably come to an end.
Now that we have confirmed the activities of the Doomsday King, we are in urgent need of regrouping as a Qualia, and we are in your hands.
In the Holy City nowadays, the re-training of the Paladin and the formation of the army will be a blessing.
After all, Qualia hadn't had a fight in a long time.
Except for the saintly lady from the middle who did not move, I could say that I had feelings even if I moved the saintly lady in the diary, which was the only saintly lady.
Rather, it is the courage to move the Holy Maiden in this situation that deserves praise.
But that didn't mean that the current situation would improve... "
The curse of the doomed king was heavy on them.
“However, there are some good reports. The Cardinal's efforts, concerned about the current situation in the area, have led to the reinforcement of the country's medical priests. It's a tough situation, but I think it'll converge eventually if we have the time.”
"I see. You have a vision for the plague." But the next problem is a little tricky. ”
With regard to the highly contagious plague that is spreading in the city, Kreye is relieved only a little by seeing the path to a solution.
How easy it would have been to solve this problem?
But our problem was too complicated to be expected to be resolved over time.
"The problems are those who have forgotten their faith..."
"Honestly, the current situation is difficult. Currently it hits the forbidden archives of the Amritate Cathedral, but there is no literature that describes it like that, and everyone has no idea."
“That's not good. Dark magic is strictly forbidden in Qualia. Possession of relevant literature, even for research purposes, can result in capital punishment. Unfortunately, we won't be able to get any information.”
Do you know anything about the Inquisition?
"The response to the darkness magic is only done by holy work." It is a mistake to try to understand and unite. ”
"Excuse me."
It wasn't a very complimentary question, but Kreye had no intention of paying special attention to him.
The Inquisition Bureau is not an organization that captures and bombards the words of its followers, and most of all, it needs help from one person at a time.
Of course I understand that, but the Inquisitor of the Faith is a position that requires more patience than usual.
Therefore, it was more gratifying for someone to say what he thought at this meeting.
Even if it is the recklessness of youth.
"I'm losing my memory. It is also only the faith and the heart that are specific. What an evil move. Seeing those who don't even know how to mourn is just as hard as seeing a small job.”
Plague and oblivion. It was a curse by the doom king of a completely different nature, but Klee does not speak out and speculates that they are very efficiently belittling this southern state with chaos.
Either was easier.
The plague alone can mobilize all the priests who stay in Southern states to be cured.
If it is just forgetfulness, it is sufficient to carry out sequential re-education after mastering the urban function.
Both of them.
It is because both occur simultaneously that movement is restricted as if they were stuck in a highly viscous muck.
It is unclear what purpose the Doom King unleashed the curse on this land.
But there was no doubt that evil intentions were hiding somewhere that would not bring about simple destruction or death.
“Let's talk to someone who has suffered another small job shortly. Maybe you missed something.”
Hear from the unbelievers who have tried many times.
No new information has been obtained after the first few times, but this is not a reason for not doing it.
With perseverance and patience, Kreye expressed her willingness to continue the investigation.
"Ok, I will arrange it as soon as possible. So, may God bless you."
"Thank you. God bless you too..."
The young Paladin leaves the room with a deep thank-you.
The words he uttered on his departure were less commonly used greetings in the Episcopal Conference.
Of course, it is in the doctrine, but it is a greeting used during relatively euphoric prayers and rituals, so it is rarely heard in general conversations.
However, since I came to this place, there have been relatively many people who have used that wording.
Everyone fears the wicked that have appeared in this world.
What will happen to the future in the future?
Kreye silently twitched her eyes and begged God for mercy for a long time.
◇◇◇
"Are you... a Cayman medical priest?"
She remembered the name a few seconds later when she saw the man brought before Kreye's eyes.
If I remember correctly, I'm a medical priest in charge of a parish somewhere in this city.
I remember that my faith was strong, and my ability as a medical priest was also high.
However, the reaction shown by the Cayman Medical Priest differed to the extent that she felt uncomfortable with him in her memory.
”Hah, hah... you must be the Inquisitor of Imreis?”
"... yes, we have heard several stories about the murder of a priest in our city before."
"Yes, that's right. No, that's true. But I'm sorry... what can I say?"
"You don't feel good, do you?" That's not good. Please sit down and relax. This is just an interview to find out what is happening here. It's not based on small job affiliation, so please be comfortable. ”
The position of heresy inquisitor is feared by many from its own authority.
Not everyone hides their backward deeds within themselves, but if they are caught in the eye of suspicion.
And if by such suspicion he should suffer an unwanted chastisement.
Confronting fear is one of the training that believers should impose on themselves in the teachings of the Ecclesiastical, but that is why it is quite difficult to overcome fear.
After all, this Caymanian medical priest was one of those who feared that the Inquisitor, Kreye, would not exist.
Nevertheless, the atmosphere has changed a little bit since I met you before.
That's what Kreye noticed.
He--the Caymanian medical priest would have been more frightened of her. In addition, there was a somewhat flattering attitude of asking about the mood.
Like other priests, he did not have any particular discomfort in that regard, but he was impressed to the extent that he felt uncomfortable with the difference with him in front of him.
The attitude is clearly different from what it used to be.
... everyone who has lost faith has seen such a change.
The followers of St. Arlos are closely influenced by their faith and their own lives.
There is no one who cannot remember the confusion of the part that determines self suddenly disappears.
The same goes for the Cayman Medical Priest.
Whether he himself was aware of that point, he tortured himself uncomfortably in response to Kreye's question, and spoke pimply with a miserable expression on his face.
"I'm wondering if I can tell you this... but it feels like my heart is completely empty." Even if I went back to my memory, I should have had more respect and different feelings towards you, but now I have no such feelings at all. On the contrary.... "
"Do you want to say that you have lost faith in God?"
"Yes, that must be... I must have lost it." But I don't feel anything. "
"Hmm, that's not good."
Kreye lowered her eyes slightly and began to think about it.
Even in a few conversations, he doesn't seem to have any problems with his personality or mindset.
Probably not in the situation of being brainwashed.
After all, only faith is completely lacking.
It is entirely unclear with what intent this wicked act, which can be called a declaration of war against God, was carried out.
If you know the purpose, you can think of countermeasures, etc., but you must refrain from thinking about the thoughts of darkness.
However, the more pressing issue than the other party's purpose was that the local clergy, who were supposed to be essential personnel for the reconstruction of the land, had all forgotten their faith.
Particularly, this Caymanian medical priest is a person who enjoys more respect than the status he has been awarded and whose achievements and abilities are guaranteed.
With his help, it seemed that the eradication of this plague, which was spreading throughout the Southern Province, would be quicker...
The time it took to rebuild the site was likely to be much longer than Kreye had thought.
"Inquisitor Imreis, he is only the one who has been stripped of his memory by the Doom King." Please forgive me..... "
“Don't worry, small job interviews are only for questioning purposes, and we don't make easy decisions when we don't know the full extent of the situation.”
Perhaps the Cayman medical priest, a young holy knight of the year, is making an appeal.
Whether it is the iron cannon of youth or the manifestation of strong justice, the act of covering one's fellows without looking at one's own self in front of a heretic inquisitor is a favorable thing in itself.
However, because of the fundamental misunderstanding, Kreye also made a bit of a breakthrough. Even if I kept putting the curse on my side at this rate, my concentration would still be foggy.
Is it better to explain this a little more clearly?
It was when Kreye thought like that and opened her mouth...
"Um, I-Imreis heretic inquisitor....."
A light came from the entrance of the closed tent, and a girl came.
A young paladin who was speaking out in protest at the momentum of his youth earlier rushed to close his eyes and thanked him deeply.
Kreye called out to the girl, the Saintess in the diary, while checking sideways that the Cayman Medical Priest, contrary to the Holy Knight, was showing a confused attitude.
"What's the matter, Mr. Nerim?" Have you finished writing your diary? "
"Yes, yes! I finished writing all the morning minutes"
“That's a good thing.”
With a gentle voice, Kreye nodded to the reply of Saintess Retrain.
The Diary's Saintess Litrain = Nerim = Quartz has a daily duty to record the events of the day in a diary of irresistible magnitude.
It is holy, guaranteed in the name of the Third Pope and the Holy Lady of Elijah, and absolutely unacceptable to anyone who stands in its way.
What is written is her memories.
A word of gratitude from people or someone you've met in the past. And the person who disappeared.
Those memories shall be written in their words without any deviation from the letter.
So she came to be called the Diary of the Holy Maiden.
Because it is that big diary that I always carry with me that makes her happy.
While holding that diary, her precious diary in a strong embrace...... Retrain quietly looked up at Klee.
"I-I heard." Because everyone has lost their memories, there are no people. "
"Before you do that, please sit in your chair." If I let you stand and continue the conversation, it will be a matter of responsibility for the small business. Besides, you always said that the diary was heavy and difficult, right? "
"... eh? Ah, ah! Yes... thank you."
The Paladin brings a round wooden chair out of nowhere and throws it behind Nerim.
Were you upset about your early work? Wow, it's Retrain who was in a hurry, but after a while you calmed down. I sat down and thanked you in a small voice.
After checking the situation, Kreye quietly nodded and urged the Paladin and the Cayman Medical Priest to leave the room.
"But..."
"Ah, it's fine as it is." Um, if you don't mind, stay here. "
A word of no emerged from the retrain.
Is it okay to let others hear it, can I feel more at ease if others are present, or is there a completely different reason...?
It was Ibukashimu Kreye, but after showing his ideas, he finally opened his mouth.
"Now, let's get back to the story." Indeed, as Nerim said, people's memories have been lost, and we are in a difficult situation. The Caymanian medical priests there are in a similar situation, and it will be difficult to return to medical practice. ”
The Cayman medical priest nodded in confusion as he got caught up in the story.
All the techniques used by their priests depend on their faith in God.
It is a type of magic that belongs to the category of miracles, but it is impossible to exercise it in a state of loss of faith.
Of course, many wisdoms that do not rely on miracles are still engraved in the brain of the Cayman Medical Priest.
But to expect selfless service from a disbeliever is a hopeful observation.
The manifestation of the king of ruin in this land.
Most of the damage was limited to fighters - the Paladin.
The reality is that medical priests and general priests ended up in confusion rather than participating in previous battles.
We have personnel, but we can't put them on the books. As a Kreye who knows well what kind of standing behavior an unbeliever may exhibit in an emergency, I can't help but feel embarrassed.
”Um, well... if everyone's faith returns, this city will be saved, right?”
Suddenly, really suddenly.
The girl said something strange.
"Well, yes... but as it stands, we haven't found a way to regain our faith. Fortunately, it is possible to preach God's teachings anew, so it will take time, but they will also regain their faith. Small jobs fool like that.”
Klee's eyes swayed at the retrain question.
Is it a sign of agitation to explain the situation in detail in a panicked manner?
Or do you understand what she's going to say next in her diary?
Kreye's prediction of not wanting to be hit was, unfortunately, correct.
"Chi, I'll treat you." I already know that I can do it with the power of my diary. "
"That's not good, your miracle--"
"Inquisitor of the Divergence of Imreis"
A strong, willed cage of words blocked Kreye.
It was clear. Her decision to retrain was unstoppable.
For he hath no power to desist, neither hath he been permitted to do.
"--Oh! What is it, Nerim-sama?"
Amber eyes stare at Kreye.
Kreye gazed at what she saw in front of her clear eyes, as if she was under pressure.
“This is where I spent time with my father.”
"Yes, yes, I know, Mr. Nerim." Just go around the corner on the main street that leads to this place, and you'll find a home where you lived with your father. ”
Kreye replied succinctly, not necessarily evoking her memory.
Someday, I was guided directly by her and told about it.
At that time, because she had already been separated from her relatives, Kreye had not been invited, nor had Retrain returned home.
But the place and its appearance were firmly engraved in her memory.
"Yes, I'm sure, maybe..."
Nerim, who was turning over his diary and checking everything, nodded slightly as he answered whether he had found the description as he thought it would.
Probably checked his diary on the location of his house. Kreye slightly frowns at the figure.
"I've been praying all the time..."
Patari's diary was closed, and the retrain mumbled before Kreye called out.
It was a thin sound even for a small child, and if there was even a little noise on the spot, I would miss it.
“Father,” he said. "If you keep doing good things, good things are bound to happen." Your father is a man who doesn't lie. "
"Yes, Advanced Holy Knight Verdell is a very noble man." I don't just take words for words, I always put them into action. "
"Wow, I've always been a good girl." I have done good deeds, as much as I can. ”
The diary's monologue of the Saintess Retrain continues.
It was my father's thoughts that moved her.
One, the only flesh and blood she was able to acquire that was born in this world.
Even if blood does not connect, the bond between father and daughter is real, which is why it scorches strongly.
Who can deny that chickens that have yet to fly their nest are crying for their parents?
Retrain's wish is nothing else, nothing unusual.
But for her, it's the hardest thing to replace.
"I'm busy right now, I'm sure I won't see you again, but when the mission is over, I'm sure I'll see you again..."
Did you talk too much? Nerim took a deep breath.
Her Father - Advanced Paladin Verdell.
He was once appointed to explore the Great Curse Realm and was in contact with Minogula.
He who no longer exists in this world.
"It's a dream. I'm going to live with my dad again."
Retrain laughed a little embarrassed.
The smile comes from the reunion with my father just a few moments ago.
God exists.
It is not a misleading or hopeless thing. As a matter of fact, its existence has been observed.
That is why the religious state of this world has been so strongly rooted in the hearts and minds of people and has been prospering for a long time.
It is no mistake to say that the presence of God supports the people who live in this country.
That's why...
Retrain continues to pray.
I'm sure the gods are watching what they're doing.
Trials are heavy and painful, but dreams come true at the end of misery and devotion.
Retrain - The wish of a young, weak girl was stronger than ever.
"I use miracles."
Kreye can only nod to the words.
The prayer of a young girl shines a pure light,
It was so brilliant... that I tried to burn myself to the ground.
