Facts always win (4)

“Do you have any shaky soldiers?" ”

“None… Carina.”

‘That's a lie.'

“How about the other side? ”

“I, too, have no side. Of course, it's hard to call it the usual atmosphere, but the spread of useless rumors is being contained as much as possible... We are being thorough in our education as well as our pace, so there won't be any impact on fraud. ”

‘There's no way. ’

I thought it was a lie. The honorary Cardinal shouted while surrounded by a bright light. It was shortly after I saw what had happened to Lyos.

Soldiers who can't shake the fear of war can't help but feel uneasy when they see it.

‘It wasn't a setup. ’

It was a great light that had been seen in the goddess' mirror, even a sacred light that could not be compared to then. I was not on the continent for very long, but I had never seen such sacred power. I thought it was just a trick....

It wasn't a trick.

to think that maybe he really had a God's choice. It is not necessary to mention that you did not sleep well.

As Lee Young is preaching in the republic, if one of those who really had one hand in summoning the demon is right or involved, we can't understand the sacred power no matter what we think.

Of course, not all priests are good.

However, most priests who have reached the age of majority have a strong faith.

They serve God, they pray for the poor, and they live only for God. The Divine Power held by the Cardinal of Honor is enough to surpass the saints and saints of each church. It is okay to be considered equivalent to the transcendent beings who have historically left a name.

In other words, if he really has anything to do with the devil....

‘It is impossible to gain this divine power. ’

Confidence, not conjecture. I did not know exactly what mechanism the Divine Power was returning to, but I also knew that the Demon Summoner or the person involved in the Dark Magic did not gain that kind of divine power.

‘You must never trust him. Yevkarina, never. ’

Of course, the words of the Jincheong Military suddenly came to mind. But….

‘If only you had been honest.... ’

If he had a purpose, he would have endured it and accepted it. If he had summoned a fearsome presence for the benefit of the Republic, he would have nodded. If you had been honest....

‘What are we going to do with the questions? The military can't do that. ’

The anxiety in Command and Control soon leads to the anxiety of the entire force. It was natural for him to bite his lips tightly. It was then that a voice came from outside.

“Yevkarina. Priest Bishop wants to see you... ”

‘Damn it.'

When I think about it, it was in the expected order.

“Tell them to come in. ”

“Yes, I'll keep you posted. ”

Immediately after a while, what you see is an elderly man with gray hair. At a glance, I thought that no one would ever think that he might look like a worthless old man, but that he had nothing to do with what he saw.

There are churches in the Republic. Of course, it is not to be said that it forms the foundation of the state like the Church, but there are few places in this society where priests are essential.

The same applies to priests in the military. To ignore their voices is to ignore the Church itself.

That's why I don't like this situation. I could have guessed what that old man was going to say.

“What's the matter? Priest Bishop.”

“Kmm... It's about what happened yesterday. Yevkarina.”

“I understand you've already stated your position on the matter yesterday... but I don't think I have anything else to say about that. The Republics have already.... ”

“Of course I said it... I think there's an angle that's not obvious. Can't you bite the others for a while? ”

“You don't have to. Priest Bishop.”

“Please.”

“ ……. ”

“ ……. ”

‘That's why I didn't like it. ’

It was obvious that he sighed. because I know the meaning of that word.

“Please return to your stations and recon your troops. ”

“Yes, I understand. ”

“ ……. ”

“ ……. ”

“So... can I hear what you want?" Senior Priest Bishop. ”

“I need to talk to you... ”

“Yes? What the...? ”

“I will speak with the Cardinal of Honor of the Church. If you can spare a seat.... ”

“That's ridiculous. Even a priest can't hear what he just said. I can't believe you're meeting him in this situation. This is an exhibition. Our mission is to protect it, and we must think of nothing else. It's my job to shut down reinforcements and supplies to Castle Rock. It's not my job to get him to meet the priest. ”

“Our job is not to win this war, but to protect the Republic. ”

“Winning this war is about protecting the Republic. Priest.”

“Do you really think so? ”

“ ……. ”

“You really just saw what was there and didn't think of any other possibilities? His sacred power is not a lie. Do you really think he summoned the Devil and trapped his soldiers? The Demon Summoner, or whoever did this to him, can get his hands on that sacred power? Goddess Benigore will laugh. The gods aren't involved in this world, but they're not just looking at it. I will not bestow such divine power on those who have erroneous and false personalities! He is an adult, a saint, and a chosen man of light. An adult from heaven.... ”

“He's a fraud! High Priest Bishop! ”

“How can a con man look like that? What we saw yesterday was not a goddess mirror... It was what was actually happening and it was real. There are already stories among the priests. To appease them, we must arrange a meeting with the honorary Cardinal Lee. ”

“But!”

“How long have you lived in the Republic? Yevkarina. I grew up in the Republic as a child, and I'm still here to protect it. I would never do anything to harm the Republic. I just want to know. I know that you are loyal to the Qing military. I don't think the Jingjin military would do that either. But at least I want to see it with my own eyes. Is he really God's chosen one? ”

“Jingqin Soldier is not like that. ”

“Could be the work of a third party. ”

“Jincheong Military has also talked about the possibility of a third party. But in the end, everything was a trap for Cardinal Lee, Young-young... ”

“There is a possibility that it was also the work of three people. I can tell by the look in your eyes. He's not the type to do something like that. A man chosen by light. Summoning demons to trap soldiers... I'd rather believe they're volunteering. ”

“ ……. ”

“Most of all, do you think it makes sense that you could sell a trap for a Qin military that you have never seen, Cardinal Lee? That demon, everything that was there, the magic that fell to be summoned... really... was only for one true soldier? ”

“A tactic to oppress the Republic.... ”

“Cardinal Lee Young-young didn't even know the Jingjin military was here in Lyos. ”

“How can you say that? Priest Bishop.”

“You saw it with the goddess' mirror. The people of neutral countries were watching what happened in Lyos. If what the Qingqing Military says is true, it means that the honorary Cardinal is using the terrifying existence as a servant. Do you think that the only person with that kind of power deceived the Qin military in line with the Honorable Cardinal Lee? Do you think that makes sense? Do you think the evil that threatens the continent listened to a human and only played a play to trap the true soldier? Even in less than a month, you planned and executed all that? Coincidence doesn't make it easy. I'm talking to you on the line of common sense. Yevkarina... If the Honorable Cardinal Lee really wanted to confuse the continent, he would have summoned that demon again. You wouldn't be bothering me like this. He can't be. ”

‘Damn…. ’

I want to deny it, but it's hard to deny it. It's because Priest Bishop was right.

The realization of the great incident that happened in Lyos... that he played a play to deceive the Qin military by listening to merely human words... You won't believe the dogs that passed by. It is more realistic to think that there is a third party and want to divide the country from the republic. I know this is not the way to do it, but it's no wonder his face is getting darker. As soon as I whispered in less than a single voice, I heard an answer.

“How... can I say this, Priest Bishop? ”

“That's why I want to talk to you. ”

“ ……. ”

“That's why I want to talk to you. I saw for myself what he was like... if he really was a messenger chosen by God. What you're thinking. And…"

“ ……. ”

“Is there a real threat to the continent? ”

“ ……. ”

“I have so much I want to hear. Maybe we're not thinking straight, like he said. We're not supposed to be holding swords. ”

“The conversation…. ”

“Please.”

“I can't give you permission. ”

“Yevkarina!”

“Officially. ”

“Ah…. ”

“I can't officially give you permission. If it turns out that Senior Priest Bishop is meeting with the Honorary Cardinal Lee... it will have a huge impact on morale. There is no guarantee that it will not be used as an propaganda tactic for our enemies. But… I'll do my best to keep it informal. which, of course, requires their consent. For now, we will be able to convey our intentions. As soon as possible…"

“As soon as possible. ”

“I know. Senior Priest Bishop. There's a war coming. ”

I don't know if I'm doing well or not. It's complicated to think about things all at once. But I know why Bishop nodded his head at the offer of a high priest.

‘Cause I want to know the truth. ’

About an hour after the letter was sent.

A letter has arrived from the Kingdom of Everia. I didn't expect much. However, the letter of the honorary Cardinal Lee Young-young meant perfect positivity.

[I also want to talk about this. I pay tribute to the decision of Bishop's beloved high priest and to the beautiful and noble Yevkarina's concession. - Honorary Cardinal Lee.]

“How's it going... Yevkari? Will you come with me?" ”

I couldn't nod easily to the question.
