The Other Side of the Last Boss

134. The Evil God seemed to be moving behind it ①

The aftermath of the disturbance has not yet subsided, but for one thing it was decided to hold Valkyriul.

I guess I was anticipating the time to talk.

Euphiria comes running over to us.

"What the hell is going on?

Euphiria was shining her eyes.

Iris, on the other hand, distracts from Euphiria.

"Awwww...... Well, there were a lot of things going on here."

Euphiria sees something wrong with Iris and wonders.

Sometimes I'm not used to playing the Virgin, but I guess I haven't been able to sort myself out yet.

"And anyway, here's a more detailed story"

Iris took Euphoria's hand and transferred it.

I'm not talking about it like I do here.

I know where to go. I greeted the Pope and transferred him there.

The destination is the usual room.

"Welcome back."

Tiliza greets her as she rinses her tea to relax.

However, if you look closely, you will see that you are tired.

"Looks like it went well."

Jemmy is relieved.

"……… What do you mean?

Euphoria couldn't grasp the situation and was on her way.

"It's more or less up to him to do something he doesn't know."

Tiriza pointed at me.

"You're being rude."

"Uh..., Ashtar did something to me again?

"I told you to find a cane to hold Valkyriul."

"It's not something you'll find looking for... Even though it's one of the legendary artifacts."

"When you find them, you find them."

Euphoria is not convinced when she hears my words.

Crush as you tilt your neck.

"Where the hell……………"

"It was at my parents' house."

"What kind of home?"

"That reaction, Jemmy, looks just like it."

Tiriser claws.

"Gunn"

"Hey, wait a minute. Are you shocked that you reacted the same way Atashi did?

Gemmy asks obnoxiously.

"I'd be shocked. I had the same level of reaction."

"Maybe Till is."

While Tiliza and Jemmy are in conversation as usual, Euphiria regains her mind.

"And what do you mean, Iris became the Virgin? Ah. Shouldn't we be talking this easily anymore? There's only one Virgin in the world."

"Ko, I'm in trouble. Do as you always do."

Iris is wandering and confused.

"If you say that, you're afraid to talk to the brave man who defeated the Demon King. Besides, she's a princess of a great country."

"Right...... If that's what you care about, you can't do it with me."

Euphiria is convinced by Jemmy's answer.

"Iris is behaving suspiciously for a different reason."

I'm laughing that Tiriza will dull.

Also, Euphiria did not understand and became Kyoton.

And keep asking questions.

"I wonder how the Virgin will be. Did you see God or something?

"Oh............. No, I don't think so……………………"

When Euphiria asks me this, Iris gets all twisted up.

"Iris seems to be having trouble explaining, too, Mr. Root of All Evil. Explain."

"Who is the root of all evil?"

While I was stumbling on Tiliza, I decided to explain what happened from the day I met Isaac at the Imperial Castle.

The day I had a meeting with Isaac.

After that meeting, I returned to the Temple of Darkness.

Grandpa and the following, the usual corps leaders were waiting.

"Welcome back"

Adrigori gives a token of discipline.

When I responded with my hands up to Adrigori, I turned to Grandpa.

Grandpa had a worn out stick.

If it's really Grandpa, it could be that he uses it instead of a cane.

But I call him Grandpa, but he looks handsome in his twenties, and he doesn't need to put a cane on it, so it's impossible.

"Grandpa. I'd like to ask you one thing."

"Yes."

"Where did one of the artifacts, the scepter Leviataine, go?"

"Here it is."

"Fuh!?

I was worried about how to look, but I can only be surprised when they say something unexpected.

"Where is it? The treasure trove?

"No, this is it."

Grandpa shows me something like a blurry stick.

"The wand…………?

I don't remember the detailed shape, but it was supposed to be a splendidly decorated divine wand.

"It's about the time of the Sixth Magic Disaster. Humanity lost its battle at Demon King's Castle, taking most of its artifacts from its enemies."

"Leviataine is one of them. But that's not all they had when they attacked Demon King's Castle."

Explain what you said at the earlier meeting.

"That's why it's here, and it's smashed like that?

"Ravataine seemed to like the demon king at the time, and the demon king carried it with him."

"What? That's..."

I make my face stick.

"Yes. The Demon King of the Sixth Magic Disaster has perished in the Great Ruin Magic Catastrophe. Naturally, the catastrophe is also taking a direct hit."

"This is the result………"

I approach my grandfather and take what was Leviataine.

Even though I was told more about it than it was in ancient times and the artifacts, they couldn't stand my catastrophe.

"I can't feel any magic."

"It seems that all the granting magic, enhancement magic that accompanied that weapon has also disappeared. My apologies."

Grandpa lowers his head.

"Hmm? Why would Grandpa apologize?"

I slipped my neck.

If it was broken by my magic, all I can say is an accident.

"I'm in charge of solving the Sixth Magic Disaster."

"That's right..."

"I knew Leviataine was in the hands of the demon king. There was a lot of movement to recover the catastrophe before it was activated, but there was a mistake."

It is unusual for Grandpa Ya to make mistakes, but there is no such thing as the extent to which one weapon is broken.

"Go out into the world of men and hide your power, and guide people. This can be quite difficult."

Adrigori speaks with a real voice.

"People show our unexpected movements, our reactions. You have some irregularities."

Jeko rarely agrees with Adrigori.

"That's not the level of your mistakes, though."

The look on their faces hardens when I'm stuck with them.

He ignored my instructions, moved around on his own and stormed, leaving his name as a great man in history as a result.

It's not a mistake in the first place, I guess. Runaway.

"Hey, what are you talking about…………"

"Ki, I don't remember"

Those are the easy ones to understand.

It was clear that even Jeko, who did not remember things, would remember absolutely.

"If you forgot, another reflection session on the Fourth Magic Disaster, Suru?

Reflections = although it is a punishment.

Jeko hastily corrected my words.

"Yes, of course I remember."

Leave these guys alone, I'll get back to business.

"So, can this be cured?

My grandfather shook his head to the left and right.

"You can't make it exactly the same performance. The artifact of this hand seemed to have a special force that we could not parse either. You won't be able to recover."

"But I still don't know what it is."

"Yes. Still, humans won't know the difference if you look alike and reinforce it with grant magic."

"Then I guess I need to go out of my way to use that worn out stick. You can make it from scratch as a different wand."

"Now what do you think? I don't know what it is, and I was wondering if it should be in the form of a repair."

It is also possible that the hidden forces are actually alive.

I decided to follow my grandfather's advice.

The shape was remembered by Grandpa, so I decided to ask him to help me.

I can't remember the details.

"And then there are the holy marks?"

"You were watching the talks?

As a matter of course, I look at my grandfather, who enters into the story of the Holy Marks.

"No. I just thought that's the only way Master Ashtar would show interest in Leviataine."

"Hmm............. Well, either way."

Because Grandpa doesn't know if he's serious or if he's blurry at times like this.

"What kind of animal is that?"

"It's not a kind of bear. Because of this. It's about the holy wound."

I'm stuck with Jeko.

Finally, he also explained Valkyriul.

"Hmm...... That game sounds interesting."

"I don't mind your interest, but it's impossible for a clerk to go to a tournament like that"

"Anyway, let's solve the Stigma case."

Jeko leaned her neck at Grandpa's suggestion.

"It's a wound that comes when you're blessed by an ancient god, isn't it? Is that something we can do?"

"Have you ever seen such a god as Dougza or Bridget?

"There isn't. Is it real in the first place?"

Jeko answers my question instantly.

"God is not even confirmed by us who lived a thousand years. But if the Holy Mark is really happening in God's miracle, we will judge that God is real."

Adrigori explained to Jeko.

"So you're saying that God's blessings, miracles, etc. don't exist?

"Don't be like that."

"If so, what is so inconsiderate about it?

"Magic. I developed it."

I answered Jeko's question.

"Oh, that's Ashtar."

Jeko gets a grip right after that.

"But that's a trick..."

"What a religious event."

Human beings in an age where logical judgment cannot yet be made are the means by which things are determined, such as divinely prayed.

I can say that religion has a strong influence.

It was just one thing that helped make it easier to govern in those times.

He developed magic that allows glowing wounds to float under certain conditions.

When God blesses and there is a saint, it is easy to do a lot.

By having a mysterious event, people worship.

"Then why is that system stopping now?

"Only a handful of people in the world know this information, or the saints themselves and the Pope of Dougza"

"At the time of the Sixth Magic Disaster, both of them were killed at the same time."

Grandpa Ya provides a supplementary explanation.

Fifty years ago, that day when mankind entered the castle of the Demon King, the mechanisms of the saints were lost.

"These religious rituals are important in ancient times, but not these days. If it's gone, it's gone, okay?"

"I see."

"That's why I don't know how to revive the system."

I'm roaring.

"How did you do it back in the day?

"I couldn't move through the magic of the bind to the Pope at the time, and I whispered under my pillow"

It was Grandpa who answered Jeko's question.

"It also released a bit of evil and it worked like a horrible person."

I wasn't allowed to go outside at the time, so naturally it was Grandpa who did it.

"It seemed that he was recognized as a servant of God, and his pope began praying from day to day that he should appear again"

"The pope was a woman at the time. A handsome voice that captivates you only with your voice. Terrible."

"It's no big deal"

Grandpa says nothing.

Well, the pope didn't wish for it.

I have no choice but to see him again and again.

"How about this time?

"Same thing as last time, there's no art, and people don't believe me when I do that in the first place."

"As human beings progress in technology and knowledge, so many people are less confident."

"Then I'll do it right now."

"Be my guest."

Grandpa and everyone below said they had no objection.
