◆ Norb ◆

My grandfather called me, and I came to the church in Wang Du, and I was walking down the long corridor.

"Dear Norb, the High Priest will wait here"

That's how the intermediate priest who guided me stops in front of the larger door.

"Thank you"

"It's a waste of time."

You behave as if you are superior to me.

"Go ahead, because I'm not qualified to go further than this."

When the intermediate priest lowers to the side, I open the door.

And if you go inside, it was a very murderous room with nothing there.

No, there was just one unnatural thing in the room.

"This is the door to trial…"

Yes, in the back of the room with nothing, there was a door the size of which crossed the door I had just entered.

The name is also the door to trial.

This is the door that supposedly can only be opened to those qualified to enter this back room.

"I can't believe I'm going to touch this door right now..."

It would have been much later to come here...

But you can't be cowardly.

To say that I was called here is to say (...), (...), (...), (...).

I will never touch the door.

"Ku ⁉"

The moment I touched the door, I felt the force in my body fall out.

"And not enough to make you instantly unable to move... Huh!

I push the door as hard as I can before I lose all strength from my body.

Then the door slowly, but I made a dull noise and started opening.

"Ko, this is... tight..."

The more doors open, the less power your body will lose.

"Just a little more!

And as soon as I had enough clearance for each person to get in, I slipped into the room.

"Ha-ha-ha... Huh!

I managed to get it in...... if it was too late to open it I would have done my best.

"Welcome to the Holy Separate Room, young priest"

"Ah⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉⁉\

to that voice. I (...) try to jump and get my body up.

"Junior Monk Norb, I'm here."

Raising her gaze, there was the figure of an old priest sitting at a large table.

"May I help you, High Priest?"

This is the Hidinos who is revealed in the Supreme Priest of the Church in this country, and….

"It's tough. Why don't you just call me Grandpa like you used to?

"No, I cannot speak with such disrespect to the High Priest."

And he's also my grandfather.

This is why the intermediate priest treated me more as a person of character earlier.

"Oh man, he's a stiff guy. Some of us can listen to our conversation here."

That's not why.

"But, well, I honestly think it's a big deal that I was able to open the door at that young age. How dare you grow that far?"

Rarely, the High Priest praised me.

To be honest, I've had enough of it.

"That's only if we meet good, too."

"Ha, don't be modest. No matter how well you met, you wouldn't have gained that much strength if you hadn't refined yourself daily. Admit your efforts, Norb."

Yes, the High Priest said, but it was only with Mr. Rex's Kaoru that I was able to gain all this power.

And I was only able to take Mr. Rex's teachings because our leader, Gyro, wanted to improve himself even if he abandoned his pride.

Really, we had a good meeting, Grandpa... not the High Priest.

"Well, you know why I called you here?

and High Priest asks me back in his face as a priest.

"Of course I know."

That's why I was on a training journey with you, Gyro.

"Um, your role would have been a few decades away, but the activation of the marsh (...) is far beyond our expectations..."

As the High Priest said, my service would have been much later.

Because it was supposed to be after I trained normally, grew normally, and gained as much strength as I could someday open the door to trials.

"Well, considering that, I can tell you were fortunate to be growing more than you expected. Or maybe your growth is God's mercy again."

Sure, because meeting Mr. Rex was so much a miracle to God.

"Norb, open the door of the trial, you qualified young priest. Under the blessing of the Holy Spirit, I give you a mission!

To the words of the High Priest I kneel, and wait for the words to follow as I prepare.

"A few days after this, the princess travels to perform a ritual to quell the revitalized corrosive marshes. You will be escorted in the meantime so that the princess can safely reach the ritual land."

"Holy mission, only accepted"

Yes, this is my mission.

A one-way escort for the safe delivery of the sacrificial and, as far as possible, born Princess Meglierna to a ceremonial setting.

Because it's the mission of the Martyrs without a way home!

◆ Hidinos ◆

Norb, who received my life, left the Holy Another Room with a determined eye.

"... ha. I didn't expect him to open the door..."

It was completely unexpected.

No matter how sweet you quote it, I thought the door couldn't be opened in the nowadays knob...

If I could only confirm that, I would have reasoned that it was still too early and planned to replace it with another powerful person...

"My grandson was just too competent!

Oh, my God! Why is Non's grandson doing so well?

As a boss, I'm happy, but as a grandfather, I'm not happy!

What makes you so sad that you have to send your lovely grandson to a dead place where you know he's going to die!

It's about that fucking serious grandson.

You think this is the mission you've been given or something.

That's not true! It's simply that he was born at the worst possible time to the grandson of the Supreme Priest of a country where there is a land of corrosion!

"Damn, that and this is because that abominable swamp suddenly activated!

The land of corrosion that erodes this country is one of the most dangerous areas.

So do many other danger areas, but that land literally corrodes the earth around it.

And it spreads. Unlimited.

There are many hazardous areas that are of that nature, but only those that are simply harmful to the human body: poison, the degree of which is not the ratio of other hazardous areas.

But it's not like I don't have the means.

That is the ritual of sealing by the royal man.

Norb's job is to escort the royal family who perform the ritual to the land of rituals.

Correctly, it is the antidote magic that protects the royal family from the corrosive earth and the venom of the demons that strike it.

But due to the danger of the land, the detoxification magic users who accompany you must be the right ones.

In addition, it must be reliable.

The worst part is that the companions will definitely die because of the harshness of their role.

Therefore, those who accompany you in your service will be called 'martyrs'.

... Huh, what's 'martyr'! Isn't it just a deception in a good word to hear!

"But is that the same for Nong..."

I'd like to replace it if I can.

However, Noon's position was not as cheap as it could be...

"Oh God. Please have mercy on the soul of my grandson..."

What a powerless thing to say about the title of High Priest.

The only thing this incompetent old man could do to make him a pretty grandson was pray.

"Well, shall I put on the ingredients of the golem that Master Idra asked me to do today?"

"" "Ooh!

There are three people participating in today's adventure: Liliera, Gyro, and Mina.

Mr. Norb has things to do in church, so he won't be back for a while.

"So, where are you going to collect the ingredients?

Liliera urges me to spread the map over the table.

"Yeah, I was gathering information at the Adventurer's Guild, and there was just some land convenient for collecting Golem ingredients. There are a lot of demons out there that can be the ingredients of the Golem, and they're perfect for collecting them."

"Heh, you used to have such a convenient place. So? Where is that place?

Mina hastens me not to get hurt.

"Yes, this is the place"

When I point to a spot on the map, everyone opens their eyes.

"Mr. Rex, what is this place..."

Look at the place names written on the map and Mr. Liliera raises her plundered voice.

"Yes, we are headed to a dangerous area in the western part of the country..."

Put down a beat and I'll tell you.

"It's a land of corrosion!
