My childhood friend the hero was genuinely angry

18 – The Man Loved by the Goddess (6)

Goddess Advent is an ability that can only be used by saints, and is a very special ability that allows you to borrow power directly from the goddess.

Because of such ability, the saintess is the representative of the goddess, and she becomes a person powerful enough to be considered a member of the hero’s party.

Because of this, when the saintess tried to use it, I had no choice but to be wary.

From now on, it was time to prepare my mind thinking that a really tough fight would be waiting for me.

“No… Goddess. I am so confused right now. He is an evil cultist.”

But somehow things seemed to be going a little strangely.

The saintess continued to stare at the sky with a puzzled expression on her face. She continued to look like she was talking to someone.

For her, the battle with me has now completely taken a back seat, and now she is at a loss, and she continues to do so.

“…?”

The current saintess doesn’t seem to care about battles at all, but she seems to be facing something more important than that.

At this situation, I was as embarrassed as she was, but the embarrassment did not last long.

Now I knew exactly what I had to do.

‘Is this an opportunity?’

What I’m doing right now isn’t a sacred duel or anything like that. If it had been a duel, he would have waited for the saintess while protecting fair play.

But now this was a battle, a fight without rules. So I couldn’t miss this opportunity.

I don’t know what the reason is, but the current saintess was in a state where she couldn’t descend her goddess, and moreover, she couldn’t concentrate on battle.

In other words, it was a gap and an opportunity to end the battle easily.

“Kyaaah…!”

[Thunderbolt]

I had no intention of missing the opportunity. I immediately hit her head with lightning magic.

And that attack hit perfectly. A saintess, Alkena, who was hit by an attack and collapsed on the spot while screaming.

The battle ended much simpler than I thought.

“Wow…! The Prime Minister won.”

“I defeated the evil witch…!”

Then, the cheering people of the Kingdom, as much as they cheered me on, were overjoyed at this situation.

As much as this saintess was an evil witch to them, they must be very happy.

The people of the kingdom congratulated me on my victory.

‘I didn’t kill her at first.’

However, I couldn’t be too happy. If this woman were a real villain, I would have killed her immediately. Because trying to harm the people of the kingdom will never be forgiven.

However, this woman was a saint of the Goddess Cult in name and reality no matter what anyone said. That’s why she could never kill or kill. If you did something like that, something really worthwhile might happen.

She was a human being in her position as a saint, so I couldn’t kill her no matter how much I thought about it.

‘Should I tie it up and take it?’

[Bind]

But I have no intention of neglecting it or doing so.

If you do that, you might change again and try to kill me.

So I used my magic again and tied the saintess.

From now on, I intended to take her.

And I’m thinking of having a conversation.

I hoped that the conversation would work.

# # #

A saintess who couldn’t concentrate on battle during a conversation with the goddess, she was properly hit by Xerath’s magic.

Because of this, she was now in a state of fainting and could not move her body at all.

But her body fainted, she did not faint her mind.

Her mind now awakens elsewhere.

“Ugh… Is this…?”

When Saint Arkena opened her eyes, the place where she was now was not the kingdom square where she had been before.

The place she is now is a bright and sacred space.

The change of space was so sudden. An ordinary person would be surprised by this situation, but she wasn’t too surprised.

“It’s the space of the goddess.”

Because Alkena knew where this place was.

This is the realm of the goddess, and Arkenna had no choice but to know because she had been to this place before.

Of course, it was the goddess who called her here. As she looked around, she went out in search of the goddess who had called her to this place.

“Alkena. What are you doing?”

And, just in time, I found the goddess walking towards Alkena.

A goddess who spoke with a calm and divine voice to Arcena, with her elegant white dress and huge wings, she was undoubtedly the goddess she knew.

Clearly she was the goddess she had been seeing before, when she herself became a saint. However, if there was one thing that was different from then, it was that the expression on the face of the goddess now was very angry.

“Attacking Xerath now. Why did you do that?”

The saintess saw a goddess who was very angry with her.

She was a goddess who was angry that she had attacked Xerath in the warriors’ party, and that figure was the same as her parents trying to protect their children.

She is a goddess who always speaks calmly and benevolently. A saintess of hers has never seen such a goddess get so angry.

“Goddess… Why are you suddenly like this…? I received a report that there is an evil wizard here, so for the sake of the goddess… That’s it…”

Seeing the goddess for the first time, the saintess was taken aback and her saintess was stunned, but she was not without words.

Xerath was clearly an evil wizard. Because she made the stars fall from the sky. And she herself was a saint who had come to defeat such an evil wizard.

All of these actions were for the sake of the goddess. There was nothing wrong with her own actions, no matter how you think about it.

Because of that, she was an Alkena who refuted the goddess a little bit.

“Alkena. Xerath is not an evil wizard.”

“But… Xerath… Dropped the stars from the sky, and his reputation in the Empire is very bad…”

“Haa… How can I like you, Arcena?”

But the goddess says Xerath is not an evil wizard.

Obviously, given his reputation in the Empire and his track record of dropping meteorites, he must be an evil wizard.

She couldn’t comprehend this situation where she said she was absolutely not a goddess.

“Alkena. I’ll show you what Xerath has been doing.”

The goddess let out a sigh at seeing such an arcana, but she actually knew the goddess too.

Even she knew that Arkena never did it with bad intentions. She just misunderstood.

Therefore, the Goddess tries to clear up her misunderstanding with Alkena.

“Look at these things and make your decision, Alkena.”

The goddess who put her hand on Arcena’s head, she showed all the things Xerath had done since he was banished from the empire.

A story about how Xerath is thanked by many soldiers and citizens of the empire.

For bringing rain to a kingdom that suffered from drought.

The thing that saved the king’s life.

The thing that got rid of Masusan through hard work.

Being the prime minister of the kingdom, he showed himself more for the people than anyone else.

And so on.

All of the things Xerath had done up to this point, the image of the hero Xerath, flowed into Alkena’s head.

‘I misunderstood?’

Seeing the actions of Xerath coming into her own head, Arkenna couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

She must have thought of Xerath as an evil pagan sorceress. She did, so she tried to kill him.

But that wasn’t the case. Far from being an evil pagan wizard, he was, on the contrary, just a very good man.

She was just such a nice person who thought of others before herself.

“I can’t believe it… I… What the hell did I…?”

But then, what did he do with all his actions?

She herself tried to kill him. He misunderstood him at will, and harmed him at will.

He didn’t even try to find out, he tried to kill him by judging him at will.

What was he trying to do to Xerath?

If it went wrong, it could have killed an innocent… A very good wizard.

What he did was obviously bad, and it was not something that could be forgiven.

“Huh…”

In an instant, tears poured out.

An unimaginable sense of guilt came over me.

It was such a great sense of guilt.

What on earth should I do in a situation like this…?

“Alkena. Anyone can make mistakes.”

When Alkena sat there and did nothing, the goddess hugged her.

And while reading her, he showed her her way.

“But the important thing is to make it right. I’ll give you a chance, so go ahead and apologize to Xeras for doing her wrong in her naked body. Okay?”

Apologise to Xerath for the wrongdoing, and if you do, you will surely be forgiven.

“Yes… I get it. Goddess… Ugh… I’ll apologize to him on her knees and with her naked body with all my heart… I’ll apologize until you forgive me…”

Arkena is determined.

I will apologize to Xerath for misunderstanding when I wake up.

Until he accepts her forgiveness, he will apologize.
