Paladin of the End

2: of the hot blood tide

The small stone chapel was filled with solemn air.

The packed people refrain from bothering to the left, the right, the rear, or outside the chapel.

When I went in there and prayed for silence with a hand gesture, silence fell.

Then, one breath, lid breath. At the end of my gaze is an altar I just did.

I dress in white and relaxed festive clothes and walk calmly, step by step.

When you stop in front of the altar, stop, thank you, and tie your mark in the steps that Anna taught you to do.

Ritual movements were quite difficult to remember, unlike normal operations, which were various on their own and with different tricks.

Loosen up every move.

Finish one operation and then go to the other.

The difference between stationary and motion is clear.

Think of the look - majestically.

The point is, dress up, Anna said.

Don't be shy, grandiose, that doing it is the main point of something called ritual.

"Dear Spin, Goddess of Lightning. Merciful things, lights that illuminate us."

Slowly spread your hands.

"If you will, accept this prayer."

Good, talk.

"Bless all the good fortunes, though we live in this land.

"Though I can die in this land, I will lead you on a new journey."

Break a knee.

"My God, my light, it's GraceFeel."

Hands together.

"Even when surrounded by many blades."

I recall.

of the temple, a cemetery in the hem of a hill. Countless carcasses, their blades.

"Even if it depends on a lot of fear."

Black, blue-white face.

of the Immortal, that terrible threat.

"How many challenges and patiences distort you into giving up and despair."

Snake fangs. Immortality poison.

Shaking vision. Falling body. And I met. [M]

Um, under the starry sky around.

"I offer you my uninterrupted prayers."

Pray. Pray.

"Glory to you. Praise be to you. With you for as long as I live………………………………."

And at the end of the altar staring.

The space slowly shifts and the lighthouse is lit with a soft flame.

- It's as if someone invisible stopped there softly and lit the fire.

Ooh, and I can hear you twitching from around.

It's a testimony. It's a lightning bolt. The holy fire lit up. - This place and we were blessed by God!

Cheers up.

I can hear the applause.

Apparently, the inauguration ritual of the chapel was well carried.

With a soothing smile in my heart, I slowly began to leave.

Finish the inaugural ceremony and the banquet afterwards.

Anna and I were at a table in the chapel garden, taking a break for tea.

"- Speaking of which, why did Anna fall in love with Leistoff?

There, Bi, who happened to be present, threw a bomb in Nico's face with a smile.

Spray the tea that Anna was drinking and make it look like a geese.

A loosely knitted flax hair bounced off Piong Piong.

"Are you okay?

"Yes, I'm fine, I'm fine...... Keho"

As unexpected surprise, Vi snaps his neck.

Looks like Vi is already in a comfortable relationship with Anna. Or she's close to anyone.

"Anna, you... I thought maybe you could keep it a secret, or something?

Anna's gaze swims.

"…… SO, SONNAKOTOHANAIDESYO"

…………

…………

Yes, no.

I was wondering if that would be impossible from my point of view.

I think I'm wiping my desk.

"What an obnoxious reaction…………………"

"Well, what about Mr. Bi like that is awesome!

"Hehe, what do you think?

"Sorry, that's a hard topic to talk about."

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Tough when it comes to talking too vividly.

I mean, it's pretty hard to stay at the time of a woman's love story, and I guess I'll give some more reason to disperse...

"Ah, Will. Stay right there, you've been working out with Leistoff lately, give me the info!

I was pulled over.

Failed to leave. …… what shall we do?

"So, let's get back to it, like, the reason I fell in love is because I got help?

... but if you were adventurous, there would be plenty of it. Someone to help each other or be helped. "

Well, if you say you're swollen in love but not rational, then so be it, says Vi.

"I wonder if there's any other reason."

Yes, when Vi asked, Anna... hesitated a little and then started answering.

"Uh... Mr. Leistoff is a very gentleman..."

"Oh, I know that. You're an expert and a gentleman."

I'll give it back to you when I give you the Greater Union Age Warrior Tribute.

Thank you. Although he is a martial arts bone, he has a proper upbringing.

Out of the picture, it could really be the nobility.

Some rough adventurers have a slightly different hairline, and I don't feel like knowing someone to be attracted to.

However,

"Nice smile……………"

We froze at the words that followed.

For a moment, I didn't understand.

"What, a smile?

"That 10,000 years of scary faces, are you laughing?

"……… Yep."

It's a little hard to understand, Anna says.

Happy, or whatever, I've never seen a smile before.

No, is that the smile after a moment?

The beard surface makes it difficult to understand the movement of the mouth.

He said, "You look difficult, but you're a good guy, right? It makes you gentle and………………"

Anna puts her hands against her cheek and blushes.

Something totally cursory mode already, huh, that?

"Excuse me, uh, the... could we be quite close now?

"... hehe, its... embarrassing... yes"

Stiff without thinking of words I never imagined.

Ah, that sturdy Mr. Leistoff.

"Hopefully, eventually, we want to be together…………"

I want to be with you.

I don't know, it's a word I never imagined.

Speaking of which, that adventurous bastard, Mr. Leistoff, has been kind of starting to base himself on this village lately.

Because there are so many warcraft and ruins... but this is not true.

That's all I've been thinking about - and, uh, what went through my brain.

... was a very, very good shadow.

"............... ano, smitten, such a sun"

Talk in an unscrupulous voice.

"Yes, I wonder."

"Father... how dare Mr. Leistoff about the Bagley Temple Chief..."

"I'd like to say hello soon."

Me and Vi froze back together.

"Anna.... is Anna here?"

A voice hangs there.

It was Mr. Leistoff who walked in.

"There's a guy who took his wings off too much at the banquet and fell off the rind. Sorry, but I need you to treat me."

"Ah, yes! … excuse me, excuse me"

Anna gave us a gentle compliment when she stood up to jump, and ran to Mr. Leistoff with her bouncing footsteps.

Me and Vi stare at them as they leave us.

"…… hey, Vi"

"What?"

"Mr. Leistoff, how dare you say hello to the Bagley Temple Chief?

"Come on, I don't know………………"

Yeah, I can't imagine either.

"But I think there's only one thing I can say."

"What?"

"He is a brave man………."

- That day. A new alias was added to the famous adventurer, Leistov, the "Boring".
