The Branded Female Fencer

Arnelia Church Raid, Part 14 - The End of the Raid ②

A few days later...

Renovation of the Deep Green Palace also began, and the damaged exterior walls were apparently repaired. I insisted that the Deep Green Palace was just right because it was too big if I tried it on Miriazal, but when I first built it, I asked the same question, "What would you do without living in a place like this, the episcopal one!" I feel like I've been scolded. As for those in a position to worship her, it was the surrounding idea that their Lord was better dignified and wanted to make Miriazal a majestic object, even just a building, for those who could not normally worship it. Miriazal also hated it at first, but was reluctantly made to accept that it would be within the budget's permission. I spend very little money, Miriazal, so I have spent as much change as I can with that carry-over because I had extra budget every year.

But there is still more human damage than building damage in this raid. The final death toll of 378 - this was the highest number of deaths given out by Arnelianism in the last few decades. Although Arnelianism had many orphan origins, as I mentioned before, they did not count 100 of the dead, and many, even orphans, were currently building families, so I had to make that report if people died. It was Miriazal who wanted to decide that there was nothing on the face of it, but the case was a little too big to get anything done. Rumors spread little by little from nowhere, and eventually the situation will become known to all countries.

Miriazal was not prepared for that either, but it was salvation that the citizens of Arnelia had nothing to do with this incident to condemn the Church. The citizens of Arnelia knew exactly how the Church felt. This would also be due to normal good governance and the response of those who reported to the dead. When it comes to a good population, there are a lot of good people in the middle class. Perhaps it is the true strength of the Arnelian Church that there are so many things that stand well with their will, even if Miriazal does not skip the instructions directly.

Jake was summoned to her when such ex-post processing was almost over and Miriazal could return to normal business.

"What can I do for you, Peppa?"

"Oh. Seriously."

Miriazal doesn't respond to teasing. Jake soon realized it was another serious story with that look.

"... what are you talking about?

"Remember the last line they left?

"Oh, you seemed to have some grudge against me. And she seemed to know about my sister Lisa."

"Actually, Lisa and the others have sneak escorts on them. So most things are fine, and the guys around Lisa are pretty strong again. If it's about that kid, they might not have to worry about it at the moment, but..."

"The point is, I'm a complete target, right? So, I thought I'd be my sister Lisa's bodyguard."

It's hard to say, but you're right.

"Right... what am I supposed to do?

"Umm..."

Miriazal admired Jake for his speed of switching, as well as being a little hard to say. All in all, it was a story I was going to do, but I was wondering how much anything would be early for a 10-year-old boy.

"Jake, Lord... join the Temple Knights"

"Okay."

"No, because I don't tell you to make a decision all of a sudden... is that an immediate decision!?

"It doesn't make much difference what you're still doing, does it? Fine."

"But if you join the Knights, life will be restrained. Juvenile freedom is gone. Don't worry about it."

"I don't like it. I've decided to spend all my life for my sister Lisa. If you were a man, you couldn't bend what you said, could you?

"This guy's mouth is all alone."

"Of course... stay!

Miriazal hits Jake in the head with this. Miriazal has seen so many of these temperamental young people, but their growth has always been her pleasure.

"Then let's go through the process by the end of the day. First, make them part of the outer perimeter unit. As a result, there will be no free access to the Deep Green Palace. But I'll talk to the guards, so I'll be able to get in and out of anything that needs to be processed. Why don't you talk to the little ones?

"Okay."

"Again, with Rafferty and Alberto, I will make sure to give you more time to work out. At least it's impossible to protect Lisa without gaining strength close to them."

"How soon can we get there?

"I'd say don't rush ahead, but it's all up to you... well, not how strong you'll be in a year."

"Well... don't you see if I don't try"

"Not all this."

"Is that all we're talking about?

"Oh, for now."

"Then I'll explain it to Nellie or something. I'll be back!

"Uhm."

Jake goes out of the room for a small run, sees it and then Miriazal calls Alberto and Rafferty.

"Call me?

"Um, Jake's not a Knights Temple member from today. Then give him priority for sorcery training, combat training, and study. Prioritize your training with the Lord every day."

"That's... that's tough"

"Oh, in many ways. Physically, every day that comes close to the limit will go on, but it will be tougher mentally than that. They are not understood around them and risk being hostile to the same generation. Like your lords used to be."

"... right,"

"But that's the way he chose. I think you know that much. But Jake is sharp. Even if you can't describe it in words, you may know it somehow."

"I was wondering if that was likely."

"But no matter how grown up you are, all you have to say is children. Just keep an eye on the lords, okay?

"" Your will. ""

"Still, I don't think they'll make it... but they'll still be here as early as they can. Don't wait till Jake gets stronger."

"Dear Miriazal, I have one question for you"

Alberto asks.

"What?

"That ability of Jake. What is that ability to cause damage to that evil spirit? It seemed more effective than my sword and Miriazal's fist, which set the sacrament apart."

"I have no certainty either. But somehow, I'm guessing."

Miriazal speaks with his hands against his chin.

"What kind of"

"Lord, do you know the birth of the Holy Knight?

"Origins...?

Alberto and Rafferty face to face.

"Mm-hmm. It's still a time of war, a time when the Great Demon King existed. They are made up of an army of Necromancers and Evil Spirits among the demon kings. At that time, Arnelianism had not yet served as an army, and there was no concept of a temple knight. For this reason, Sister Monk has to stand in the vanguard in order to defeat the kind of Necromancer/Evil Spirit whose normal weapon does not work. Took out many dead."

"I've read it in Arnelia's records. It's a battle in which many sacred attacking magic has been developed."

"Mm-hmm. Such a fold, a certain young man was summoned. He chopped up a bunch of evil spirits one after the other with a bronze sword without any training or sanctification. Of course, there was no one who could imitate him, but I can say that I saw how he fought and now I have the concept of a Temple Knight. Then the concept of" Holy Knight "was launched, referring to knights and swordsmen who could defeat dead spirits and evil spirits."

"So Jake is capable of the Holy Knight?

"I don't know that. I've also seen the battle of the Holy Knight a few times. He was often on the same front but had another side. Then I'm wondering if that's most likely when it comes to Jake. That's why I want you lords to work out. Maybe it'll be a trump card for the existence known as that doom. Including the most important thing about escorts."

"" My pleasure. ""

"Do me a favor... no matter what you do, there's not enough time."

Miriazal looked up to heaven unexpectedly. At first Miriazal began to defend various things with extra force, but every time there is more to defend, more to protect, and every time he seeks the power he needs. I've spent this chain over and over again.

And there are more connections, and now there are too many people who want to protect them. The Lazar family, Miranda, Alphilis, Lisa and the little ones, the humans belonging to the Arnelian Church... it was an inconceivable Miriazar who wondered if he would be able to protect all of them through this battle.
