Never touch Eldmia Egga - Episode 217
I thought it was all nonsense that my mind turns white when I hear something so shocking, but it may actually be true..
Because I did that now.
Until I came to my senses, all I could do was briefly learn the demon religion's prayer method from a saint..
I imagined that the secret of my birth that I didn't know about might be hidden from the soul level, but I never expected it to take this form. Immediately, the saint of the Demon God Church delivered that one word and began to preach about how someone could show such a disrespectful attitude toward God, but I was really sorry, but that wasn't important right now..
Why did the demon Ephagah tell me to convey that message from the beginning?.
Is it really simply to correct my mistakes? Well, there really may have been such small negative feelings. At most, I gave him a reincarnation, but if he shows an ambiguous attitude as to whether he is worshiping or insulting me, I may feel a little bad as the person who used my strength. But it's more a question of efficiency than an emotional issue..
That statement was a certificate. A certificate to let me know that whatever words come out of that saint's mouth from now on are her truth and her own arrangements. She skipped over all the things she had never told anyone, not even the saint who served her, and yet she gave me the surest certificate to prove that she had watched over me and helped me..
So I can never take it lightly.
"Holy woman. Did you say anything else besides that??"
"...ha. I really don't know how it works. You, who are not even believers, change your attitude as if flipping the palm of your hand at that single word, and Epaga, who foresaw this, also did the same.."
"I just want you to know that there is a very deep story there that is difficult to explain. If Ephaga did not even tell the saint, it would be because of his arrangement, so it would be a bit unfair for me to say that carelessly.."
At that moment, the saintess's eyes widened and she reacted as if she had seen a low-intelligence monster speaking fluently in human language..
"I think you are thinking this is very rude...."
"Oh, no. This is a bit unfair. Think about the attitude you showed just a moment ago. Why did you say that when you knew you would say it like that??"
"Is that so??"
"Just... cursing. You spoke informally and acted like a city manager.."
"I'm just trying to decide who to respect and who I don't. Although there are some distinctions between what can be communicated with,."
Just a moment ago, I was just dealing with a high-level religious person, but now I am dealing with a saint who serves the god who gave me a second chance at life. If your attitude doesn't change, wouldn't you be a terrible bastard??
Of course, that didn't seem to be what she was talking about, but there was no reason to accept her arguing about the direction of my life, so I just remained ignorant..
"Phew... good. First, I will tell you what Epaga said.."
"Should I kneel down and listen with reverence??"
"...You asked sincerely. no. No matter how great and noble His will is, I am only a messenger. How can He set me up and take actions similar to worship? In these cases, it is enough to just listen and take the time later to understand the meaning of what God has said.."
The saintess, who was actually delivering the words, seemed to want to convey the message while maintaining a neat posture, cleared her throat briefly, adjusted her posture, and spoke slowly..
"I will not block your will. However, it is too early. There are already enough variables. Even my own eyes cannot fathom the chaos that will arise after the protection comes to an end, so now is the time to focus on the teachings around me.."
A story so vague that if you heard it on the street, you would dismiss it as a fortune teller's nonsense, but it could become such a touching story simply because it was delivered by God. After all, people live for a long time and things matter. I've experienced everything.
I humbly asked questions about things I did not know, like a student taking a lecture..
"Do you have any idea what it means for God to come to an end??"
"I believe that he was referring to the customs of the demon race. We believe that we receive strong protection from the demon god until we reach adulthood. And it is said that only on the day when one becomes an adult are one able to escape from God's embrace and be reborn as a being worthy to advance into the world on their own.."
Is this similar to what Asilier said about the end of childhood or something? Hearing this from the perspective of a reincarnated person, this is a story that cannot be taken lightly. Maybe the period they just believe in as a superstition is really the period when they are protected by God..
The saintess looked at me in distress for a moment and then finished speaking about the rest of the story..
"A time of revelation. The day will come when we will meet face to face through a solid path, so just wait. This is all that Epaga wanted to tell you.."
I suddenly felt like my head was pounding because I had so much to worry about, but the story wasn't over yet..
"The rest of the story was told to me. Eldmia Ega. to cooperate and help you."
"...When I saw the demon saint, she told me to help her.?"
"yes."
"Is it possible that the demons have committed some kind of sin or are displeased with Epaga??"
The saint’s face began to be filled with mysterious questions. Her response was that she didn't understand why she had to ask such a question, so I spoke clearly while being considerate of her religious beliefs..
"The minimum situation is the death of the Demon King's army commander, and the worst situation is turning the entire Demon King army into enemies. Needless to say, there is a possibility that other demons connected to the demon king's army will turn around and attack in revenge. As Ephagan said at the beginning, not interfering with my will means that you have no intention of stopping my actions.."
Even if you were not involved in the war, helping with such matters seemed like a separate story, so I told you in advance, but the saintess's reaction was truly surprisingly simple..
"Epacah will never abandon us. So, what Eldmia is worried about will not happen.."
"I will never cause any harm to the Demon Lord's army.?"
"no. Even if I were involved in their deaths, it wouldn't put the demons in danger.."
I wondered if this was some kind of fanatical belief, but I kept my mouth shut after deciding that it might be a very normal thing from the perspective of a saint who can communicate directly, even if only intermittently..
"No matter what process you go through, I have no doubt that it is the path for the demons.."
"...Then I guess I have nothing more to say.."
He said he was like that, but there was no reason for me to persuade him to change his mind, nor did I have the time to do so..
"Well then, put down your weapon and just hold on to your shield just in case.."
I had to prepare a convincing enough excuse so that my companions, who would soon attack, could understand the situation and not take up arms, and furthermore, I had to work hard to figure out what the secret of my birth meant, and in the end, had to carefully consider whether or not to follow the revelation given by the demon Ephagah..
To be honest, it was true that the deliberation was almost over. It's true that my long-cherished wish comes first, but I couldn't pretend not to listen to the advice of the person who gave me a second life. No matter what the world says, until I get stabbed in the back, I am a Demon God from today onwards..
"Phew...the problem right now is explaining it to my colleagues.."
Since Sen and his group are forcibly tied up, there is no need to worry, but Gaendal and his group are a different story. Because I have no idea what kind of ill feelings they have towards demons..
The fallen Heresy Judges of the Demon God Church are still unable to come to their senses. According to the saint, they were forced into a state of receiving revelation due to the devil's magic, and as a result, they are said to have fainted from shock after encountering a divinity that they could not handle. Since you never know when they will wake up, it will be impossible to get them out of sight..
"Hehe, it's nice that it's cleaned up though.."
Devil bastard, my entire body is soft thanks to having sucked up so much blood that I told the sponge to go away. Normally, I would have had to use my head in a very annoying and irritated state because of the drying blood, but I decided to consider myself fortunate that at least the worst situation was avoided..
As we approached the passageway to prevent a sudden attack, it wasn't long before the group began to appear from afar along with the sound of rough footsteps..
"demon?"
"Ouch! Catherine Wait a minute! Stop for a moment...huh?"
Catherine, who was running at the front like a chariot, saw the saint like a ghost and blocked her with her whole body, fearing that she would swing her warhammer at any moment, but she was only extremely wary and did not attack her first..
Instead, he very naturally sent me behind him and blocked my path..
"I think I came because of the cult, but I'll leave when I'm done with my business.?"
crazy. As expected, Catherine was a warrior of civilization..
