38. Violence increases persuasion (3)

“I think he’s asleep now.”

“Thank you for your cooperation.”

“No. I received a lot of grace from the saintess, but I have to do as much as I can. I was very disappointed in the religious leader today. A blessing. Even if you try to decorate it like that, in the end, isn’t it the essence of prostitution?”

“…..”

“Just imagining how much suffering the saintess must have brought to tears.”

“You’re actually crying.”

“I’m sorry. How dare you show dirty tears in front of the saintess…!”

“I want to apologize for not knowing about this and not being able to stop it.”

The woman kneeling in front and shedding tears was a senior who was so active at the academy that she was even mentioned in textbooks.

This person was also a member of the church, and I was very nervous until I went to see her.

What if I am treated as an uninvited guest?

What if, after hearing the story, he was disappointed in the church and said he would leave?

All sorts of negative thoughts occupied my mind.

However, the senior I actually saw was a completely different person.

‘Because he was a warm person.’

She accepted her so kindly that it was nothing to be nervous about.

And after listening closely to the situation, he became angry as if it were his own business.

To be honest, I was very impressed.

It was because it was the first time he had been confirmed by someone other than the uncle that his choice was not wrong.

I was sure when I received support from my seniors.

that the path he was taking was not wrong.

That’s why I wanted to repay this person, and I didn’t stop the urge.

“Thank you for supporting me. It made me sure I wasn’t going the wrong way.”

I think it’s the first time I’ve used my abilities properly since I got the holy relic.

In particular, I realized a new ability through the holy relic, but I wasn’t sure if I would be able to do it well because I had used that ability.

But fortunately, the ability was successful, and the senior, who had to lose his left arm after suffering a serious injury in the contaminated area, returned to normal.

“How could I not follow the one who gives such miracles? Rather, I thank you for giving me the opportunity to follow.”

It wasn’t just the left arm that regained what was lost.

For an unknown reason, the senior, whose eyesight was gradually declining, returned with his eyesight.

It wasn’t even a huge growth.

Just possessing the holy relic created miracles unimaginable with existing abilities.

It was embarrassing to say thank you to each other.

In the end, I brought up the following story to my senior.

“If there are more people around you who are suffering, please let me know. It’s not enough, but if possible with my skills, I want to bring them out of the pain.”

“Thank you very much. I don’t know what to do with the power that should have been used for humanity, but I don’t know what to do for giving it to a b*tch like me who has no use for retirement. This must be a miracle.”

The senior continued to speak while shedding tears.

“Any b*tch who knows shame knows that she has to refuse the saintess’ kindness, but I can’t bear to say no because I remember the friend I once shared the joys and sorrows of life with. I’m sorry.”

“Feel free to introduce yourself. I’m fine.”

As a student still learning at the academy, it was regrettable that I could not officially treat them.

“Don’t worry about that part. I’ll cut off the tongue of a b*tch who makes fun of her mouth recklessly.”

“Thanks to you, more people will be able to escape suffering. Please repay the grace you have received from me for those who are suffering.”

“I will follow the will of the saintess.”

As the uncle said, it was a good thing to visit the nobles first.

The nobles, who experienced miracles with the power of the sacred objects, became their own strength.

And in the process, I was able to find out how much the religious leader had fallen.

He didn’t even know that his virginity was being sold as a nonsense ‘blessing’.

‘How did the teacher become like this? I should have been by your side… what the hell did you go through while you were away?’

Calamity comes.

If he hadn’t listened to the advice from the uncle, he would have been wandering in a dark alleyway somewhere without making up his mind.

We must rescue the headmaster as quickly as possible.

The uncle told me to lock the leader in a safe church.

He said that since he had already fallen once, he would be easily swayed by temptation.

‘I’m going to make a safe place and enshrine the headmaster there, so that he can escape from pain and agony.’

It seemed that if there were only those who were introduced by seniors, they would be able to enter the church to save the leader.

However, he did not go to the aristocrats who were on the principal’s side.

‘Because they, like the religious leader, have been stained with corruption.’

They too must be saved.

Fortunately, according to my seniors, he said there wouldn’t be much difficulty in overpowering them.

All of the people my senior introduced to me were great people.

“Such nerds are no match for us. Even if I go alone, I can rip them all off their heads.”

I thought that I needed to calm down the spirit of the senior who was more intense than I thought.

“You shouldn’t give up right away just because you’ve fallen. They’re also members of our church. If they’re saved, I think they’ll all be able to return to normal.”

“Because our saintess is too kind.”

“That’s right. Bastards like that should start with two eggs.”

“Sweep! What’s the point of talking in front of the saintess? Restrain yourself. This is not a battlefield.”

The sunbae-nim calmed the others down, but it didn’t seem like he had completely calmed down the excitement.

Shaak- Shaak- Shaak-

“Does the knife look so f*cking sharp?”

“It cuts right off the paper. It’s been a long time since I thought I’d try my hand, so my heart fluttered. I grinded it all day.”

They were all people who worked hard for humanity and lived with creaking bodies after retirement.

A front-line secret commando unit that traveled around the polluted area with seniors and killed monsters threatening humanity.

I had no regrets about treating my senior’s colleagues.

Aren’t they the ones who sacrificed a lot of life for humanity?

If it wasn’t for these people, the current academy students would not have been able to complete their military service with only 10 years of service.

“Would you like to go now?”

“Yes. There is no reason to delay any longer.”

A few days after the seniors and their colleagues recovered their bodies.

We attempted to stealthily sneak into the church where the headmaster was staying, secretly at night.

⁂ ⁂ ⁂

“Are you going to sleep?”

“Hasn’t there been no news for several days? If it gets noisy, you can wake up then.”

The aristocrats who started staying in the church at the request of the head of the church were completely careless after several days passed without anything happening.

Even if the healing academy students invaded the church, how much power could they use?

Compared to those who had been discharged, they were no different from children.

Besides, isn’t it an attack type and not a healing type?

“Well, I should just go to sleep. I don’t think he’ll come today.”

“If it were me, I wouldn’t come here, I’d be stuck in the academy. Would you even invade here because there’s something to see in the first place? Wouldn’t you?”

“hahahaha, you’re right. But why did you accept the request from the religious leader?”

“In the meantime, I’ve been using it while obediently donating, but it suddenly felt like a waste. I also joined the church because of the saintess’s blessing.”

He forced believers into prostitution and preached, but couldn’t he have left the saintess alone?

The religious leader used the first sleeping place of a saint who had not yet reached adulthood to propagate the religion.

And the propagation worked surprisingly well, and there were not a few nobles who entered the church.

“I thought there would be no reason to hand her over to the church if we captured the saintess this time.”

“That’s kind of embarrassing. What should we do if you take the saint?”

“hahahaha, can I satisfy my greed by myself? I’ll share it with you guys.”

“Hmm…”

Other nobles made uncomfortable faces at one noble’s cunning plan.

He said he would share it, but didn’t he mean that he would eventually take ownership of the saintess?

This was an act that incited the greed of other nobles.

‘Aren’t I more qualified to have a saint than that guy?’

They weren’t even thinking about the person to give them rice cakes, but they were playing drums and janggu and all sorts of dirty fantasies.

Their purpose is to occupy the body of a saintess.

Swoop- Tuk! Tuduk-!

That moment.

The shadow approaching through the darkness struck the back of the head of the aristocrats talking dirty with strong and restrained force.

The shadow threw the fallen nobleman to the floor without making a sound.

Thanks to the carpeting, even if they fell hard, there was no loud noise.

After the shadow struck, several figures followed.

They all covered themselves in black, the kind that assassins would wear.

[It’s a pity that I can’t kill you.]

[What can I do if the saintess says no? You want to recycle such garbage.]

[Isn’t it better for the world to just burn it?]

It was not a conversation through voice.

It was a conversation using one of them.

Just as bats recognize surrounding objects using ultrasonic waves, the contents of their conversation were transmitted to each other through their own wavelength.

[Continues to move.]

[huh.]

[Is it much easier than I thought? If I do this, I might end up not being able to use my Elizabeth.]

[Looking at the weight gain, it seems that everyone has been discharged and hasn’t trained their skills at all? How did you get your reserve army training? After falling out…!]

[Isn’t it rather rude to use your own weapon to deal with these things?]

[…admit.]

It was a pity for her, who had been happily sharpening her blades all day, but the aristocrats guarding the church were pathetically poor.
